Meng Yi acted very quickly. Just after noon the next day, the verdict against Li Si and others had already been handed down!
As the prime minister, Li Si collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and exposed the national conditions of the Qin Dynasty to the Xiongnu. His crime was unforgivable and he was sentenced to death.
The entire family was exiled, all the slaves were sold, and all property was confiscated!
Li Xin and Li Si formed a clique for personal gain and participated in many things. Since they were not the main culprits this time, they were given a lighter sentence. They were sentenced to exile with their families, sold as slaves, and confiscated all their property!
Feng Jie, who was usually on good terms with them and was about to retire, could not avoid this disaster. He was exiled with Li Xin along with his family, and all his property was confiscated!
After learning the verdict, Feng Jie felt regretful in his heart!
If I had known this, I should have stayed quietly, waited quietly for retirement, and taken care of myself. Why would I get involved with them?
Now, not only is the pension gone, but also the family will be affected!
"Young Master, this old guy Li Si is really not a good guy. He has reaped many benefits over the years. You will know later when you go in and take a look!"
Han Xin took some soldiers of the Flying Eagles to raid Li Si's mansion. After finding all the property, he invited the young lady over.
"It is not surprising that honest officials in all dynasties are rare!"
Xiao Zhengtai didn't think anything.
After all, in later generations, we will see a lot of such things!
If nothing else, even the smallest official can become the richest man in the village through corruption!
What's more, in this era of very little information and imperfect laws!
If you have money, you can win the case. If you don't have money, even if you are really wronged, no one will care about you!
"Young master, please!"
After the two got off the carriage, Han Xin made a gesture of invitation.
However, before the two of them entered the door, they saw a group of men and women being escorted out of the door by soldiers.
Judging from the clothes, he doesn't look like a slave, but more like Li Si's concubines and children.
When they saw the young queen mother, they stopped and glared angrily, as if they wanted to eat him alive!
If it weren't for the soldiers guarding him, they would probably pounce on him and bite him!
"What are you looking at? Come on, hurry up!"
"Li is a traitor to the enemy. His Majesty is extremely gracious to spare your lives. Why don't you leave quickly?"
"Hmph! If His Majesty changes his mind, none of you will survive...!"
The Flying Eagles immediately reprimanded and pushed these people away quickly.
Faced with their cannibalistic looks, Xiaozhengtai smiled instead of getting angry!
I'm afraid their life will be difficult in the future!
It’s not anyone else’s fault, it’s just that they followed the wrong person!
They have enjoyed the glory and wealth for half their lives, and it’s time for them to experience hardship in the second half of their lives!
Exile is not just about driving people to a place where there is no place for people to poop, but it is about doing the heaviest work in the local area!
Either they dig out mountains and dig out rocks, or they go into mines to dig out various ores.
In short, in one sentence, the dirtiest, most tiring, and most dangerous jobs must be theirs!
If you don't do well, you'll get beaten!
Even though they all have tender skin and tender flesh now, when they arrive at the place of exile, within three days, their hands and feet will be dry and cracked, and their skin will become extremely rough and gray.
Some people's bodies can't bear it and die within a few days!
"Little Master, let's go!"
After those people were taken away, Han Xin made an invitation gesture again.
"Um!"
Xiao Zhengtai nodded and crossed the high threshold.
"Young Master, look at how many outrageous things this Li Si has done. He has so many gold, silver and jewels hidden in his home. If he says it's a salary from the imperial court, I, Old Fan, won't believe it even to death!"
When they arrived, Fan Kuai, Peng Yue, Cao Shen and others were looking at the treasures with their hands on their hips.
What is revealed in their eyes is not greed and envy, but resentment!
Even if Li Si was the prime minister of the dynasty and received rewards from the emperor on weekdays, it would be impossible for him to have so many good things!
It must have been sent by officials from all walks of life to embrace his thigh!
And those officials will definitely get the money back from the people after they go back. To put it bluntly, these are actually the hard-earned money of the people!
"I usually see that old fox being quite low-key and not wearing anything fancy, but I never expected that he has so many good things hidden at home!"
Han Xin also joined the army of complaints.
"Humph! This is his brilliance. As the prime minister, if he is too ostentatious, it will definitely arouse His Majesty's suspicion. The best way to make money is to keep a low profile!"
Looking at the large boxes in the yard, Xiao Zhengtai sneered twice.
"Have you ever counted them? How many are there in total?"
"Back to the young master, I just finished counting. There are 93,580 gold and silver in total. All kinds of jewelry, jewelry, jades, calligraphy and paintings add up to more than 40,000 gold, totaling more than 130,000!"
It was Yu Wenxuan who answered.
He held the account book and read out loud the numbers recorded on it!
Now he is no longer the poor poor scholar, but has become the financial director in charge of all the financial power of Xiao Zhengtai!
His subordinates are in charge of the shopkeepers of each store. Counting the branch offices in various places, there are dozens of people under his supervision!
"It's really a lot!"
Hearing this number, Mr. Shota suddenly smiled.
Last night, he had already guessed that this old fox had some wealth, so he tricked Ying Zheng into giving him the proceeds from the house raid.
I didn't expect this guy to be so rich. If Ying Zheng knew about this, he would be so angry?
After working hard for a long time, Ying Zheng didn't get any benefits, but instead made him more than 100,000 gold!
"Bring all the gold, silver, jades, calligraphy and paintings to Bieyuan. As for the jewelry...? Just give it to the brothers of the Flying Eagle Team and let them take it back to make the ladies at home happy. If there is no lady at home, the money will be discounted. , let them supplement the family income!”
Xiao Zhengtai looked at the jewelry and ordered.
"Yes! I thank the young master on behalf of my brothers!"
Han Xin quickly handed over his hand and thanked him.
"Hey, thank you young master...!"
Fan Kuai laughed naively, then pointed to something in the box and said to Yu Wenxuan: "Wenxuan, I want that hairpin, the one with the hollow peony flower!"
"I said, Lao Fan, you don't have a wife either, why do you want jewelry?"
Before Yu Wenxuan could speak, Peng Yue on the side bumped his shoulder hard and said mockingly.
"I don't have a wife now, but that doesn't mean I won't have one in the future. I'll keep it for now!"
Speaking of this, Fan Kuai's rough and stubbled face suddenly turned slightly red.
"Hey...! I said Lao Fan, you kept quiet, there is something wrong!"
"Yes, our Lao Fan's face is thicker than that of the city wall. Even if he was stabbed with a needle, there wouldn't be any blood. He is actually blushing today!"
"Tell me honestly, which girl from Yihongyuan have you fallen in love with? If it doesn't work out, let's pool together the money to redeem her body and come out to be your wife!"
"Yeah……!"
It was the first time for everyone to see Fan Kuai's shy appearance, and they couldn't help but joke.
"Fart, what I, Old Fan, like is a good girl, a decent woman from a good family!"
After hearing what they said, Fan Kuai immediately stopped and argued with them with a blushing face.
"Lao Peng, it's not that I won't give you this hairpin. These jewelry must be distributed equally. Let's talk about it later after I count it!"
Yu Wenxuan looked at the jewelry, then looked at the account book, and said with a serious face.
"No need, I dug this hairpin out of the account book and gave it directly to Fan Kuai!"
Xiao Zhengtai put his little hands behind his back and said with a smile.
It's not easy for this guy to find someone he likes. What's a mere hairpin?
"Hey! Thank you young master!"
Fan Kuai quickly thanked him.
"From now on, no matter who it is, as long as it is a soldier of my Flying Eagle team, I will send a betrothal gift to any girl that I like, and then send someone to propose marriage!"
"Thank you, young master!"
After hearing this, the soldiers became even more excited.
With the young master's current status, which family can he go to to propose marriage?
