Huang Wankuan looked at the person in front of him worriedly.
Although he was kneeling here, the resentment in his heart was endless. It can still be seen from the subtle expression changes on the face.
Xu Yunyan and Li Chengqian continued to drink tea and eat desserts here. After all the tea and desserts on the table were consumed, Xu Yunyan clapped his hands.
"A porridge and a meal are hard-earned, and the resources are scarce. Such food cannot be wasted!"
Li Chengqian nodded.
"That's right, you can't waste such a good thing. It's all made of food. It's a shame to waste it."
The two of them chatted about each other and completely ignored Huang Wanguan. Huang Wanguan was even more angry here. Although he couldn't afford to offend the people in front of him, Huang Wanguan also thought clearly that maybe these people in front of him didn't know how to do it. Is there any way to punish yourself too harshly?
Why?
It doesn’t count.
Their identities are laid out here, so there is no need to have trouble with a commoner like me, right?
But just when Huang Wanguan felt a little more at ease and felt that what he was thinking was correct, Xu Yunyan suddenly said something.
"How about your clever attempt to seize the land in Liangjiazhuang?"
Just as Xu Yunyan spoke, Huang Wankuan hurriedly followed up with a sentence.
"Don't worry, sir. I will go back and return all the grain fields to them now. I don't want them anymore. I don't want them anymore. The rent they have given me in the past few years has been enough for me to support them with food, and it is much more than that." ."
When Huang Wanguan said this, Li Chengqian slapped the table.
"Bold, since they have given you enough grain, and it exceeds the amount of grain and grass you once supported them, why are you still holding on to occupy their fertile fields? Do you know that trading in Yongye Field in the Tang Dynasty is strictly prohibited?"
"I know, I know, I know I was wrong!"
After Huang Wankuan said he knew, he hurriedly stretched out his hands to pat his face, making himself look a little pitiful.
"It's me who is ignorant and obsessed, but I still go to Your Highness to atone for my sins. I really have an eighty-year-old mother above me and a young son who is waiting to be fed. I hope Your Highness will be merciful.
As long as His Highness can spare Xiao Xiao's life, Xiao Xiao will do anything he can. "
What Huang Wanguan said was very pitiful, and he expressed his sincerity very smoothly, but before Huang Wanguan could do anything, Xu Yunyan looked at him and smiled.
"There's no need to be a cow or a horse."
At this moment, Huang Wanguan felt happy. Seeing how I pretended to cry in pain in front of big men like them, they would definitely stop holding on to my little tail. Isn't this the best proof?
Just when Huang Waguan was proud of his thought, and when he was about to be fine, Xu Yunyan said something else.
"Don't you need to be a cow? You can't be a cow or a horse.
We can’t let you plow the fields and drag cargo on a long voyage, right? "
Huang Wanguan was stunned by Xu Yunyan's words. Is this trying to hit me, or is he deliberately trying to make fun of me?
Huang Wanguan became vicious again, feeling that he would definitely bite them if he had the chance, but it seemed that no matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to compete with Li Chengqian and others, right?
One is a prince and the other is a general. How can these people be able to deal with this?
Huang Wanguan's expression changed again and again for a while, which made those who looked at Huang Wanguan at the scene very thoughtful.
Did this guy change his face? Changing faces is faster than turning the pages of a book.
Just when they were thinking about Huang Wanguan's unimaginable skills, Xu Yunyan patted the table again.
"Since you are determined to hand back all the occupied land in Liangjia Village, let's talk about it again. Is there anything like this in Fuzhou City?
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) What kind of situation? I'm not just talking about you. If you are right and the report is meritorious, it is not impossible for me to reward you. "
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, Huang Wankuan suddenly felt that he had hope in life again, and then he started talking here.
"There are many like me."
Those who were here watching the fun just now suddenly felt cold all over, as if they were being targeted by something dangerous.
Just as they were looking at Huang Wanguan here, waiting for Huang Wanguan to explain to them who had done such a thing, and while they were praying to find a way to survive in Huang Wanguan's hands, Huang Wanguan ruthlessly described what they had done. Speak up.
Some people are even more hateful. Not only do they want their land, but they also see their beautiful children being snatched away from them.
The tragic fate of the woman who was snatched away can be imagined with the fingers of one's toes. As for what the man was snatched away for?
Xu Yunyan didn't understand it for a while, but seeing the group of Tang soldiers who followed to protect them shivering with cold, Xu Yunyan almost vomited out what he had just eaten.
"It's not what you think, is it?
No, no!
I am so pure, how could I think of such evil things? "
Xu Yunyan secretly said this in his heart, and looked at those few who knelt down in front of them after Huang Wankuan told what he had done. , the same wealthy businessman praying for his life touched his chin.
"It seems that everything Boss Huang said is right. What should I do to you if you do such a thing?"
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, these people hurriedly imitated Huang Wankuan's example and knelt down and began to beg for mercy.
"Sir, have mercy on me, my lord, have mercy on me! We have a ninety-year-old mother above us and a newborn son below us."
This time it was even worse than Huang Wanguan.
The mother was older than Huang Wankuan's eighty-year-old son, and the son was younger than the one who was waiting to be fed.
There is really no bottom line.
But while Xu Yunyan was watching them praying here, Li Chengqian knocked on the table.
"You have such a big mother and such a small child, why don't you think about them and leave some kindness for them? Look at what you have done, and you still want us to forgive you here? Is it unbearable? Tolerate!"
But just as Li Chengqian finished speaking, several well-known Fuzhou businessmen in front of him hurriedly imitated Huang Wanguan and begged for forgiveness.
"We will send all the property back, send it all back, and we will never dare to do anything like this again."
"good!"
Li Chengqian knocked on the table with one hand, which made their hearts pound with Li Chengqian's movements, almost feeling as if their hearts were about to jump out of their throats.
After Li Chengqian knocked on the table, he watched them continue talking here.
"Although you have taken back all the property, you can avoid the death penalty, but you cannot escape the living penalty. I can't let you make a mistake and then admit it, so I won't punish you, right?"
When Li Chengqian said this, the people in front of him hurriedly kowtowed.
"Spare your life, spare your life, His Highness the Crown Prince will forgive us no matter what. We will never make such a mistake again in the future."
Li Chengqian snorted coldly.
"What you are thinking now is quite wonderful. Will you not make such mistakes again in the future? Then I will not punish you for doing this. What will happen if there are people like you in the future who do such things like you? Those who do evil will be more How to deal with it?"
After Li Chengqian said such words, someone suddenly started cheering outside the restaurant.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is mighty."
This group of people kept shouting here, making Li Chengqian and others very happy.
"Look, this is what the people want! It's not that we want to deal with you, but that you are too humane."
After Li Chengqian finished speaking, these people lowered their heads.
"I just ask His Highness the Crown Prince to give us a lighter sentence. We are willing to donate all our family property. We just ask His Highness the Crown Prince to give us a way to survive!"
"You still want to bribe His Highness the Crown Prince with money? Apart from His Majesty the Emperor, His Highness the Crown Prince is the biggest in the entire Tang Dynasty. His Highness the Crown Prince still lacks your money?
If Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne a hundred years from now, and the entire Tang Dynasty belongs to His Highness, what do you want to do? "
Before Li Chengqian said anything, Xu Yunyan sang Bailian next to him and looked at them fiercely.
This frightened these people even more.
Yes, they have completely forgotten one thing. These high-ranking officials in front of them are not ordinary officials. One is the son of the emperor, and he is confirmed to be the prince. His Majesty will indeed inherit the position of emperor a hundred years later.
Just after these people kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, without caring about their own image, Xu Yunyan looked at Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian looked at Xu Yunyan as if he didn't know how to end it, and asked Xu Yunyan to arrange it.
Xu Yunyan said here hurriedly.
"Actually, this matter is easy to deal with. After you return all the property, you can go to their villages and live with them. Presumably they will always be there. Thank you for your kindness and giving you a little land that is enough for you to live on. Don’t think that you can be arrogant because you have no worries about food and clothing. Isn’t it the food they worked hard in the fields to get for you?”
After Xu Yunyan spoke, these people burst into tears of gratitude.
As long as they don't kill their family, young and old, and can give them a way to survive, with their intelligence, they will make a comeback sooner or later.
As these people left with gratitude, Li Chengqian waved his hand and prepared to dismiss the onlookers.
"I hope that the Tang Dynasty will be prosperous and healthy, and that the people will live and work in peace and contentment."
Li Chengqian expressed this, and other people were waving their hands here, shouting congratulations to Li Chengqian such as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Sheng Ming, His Royal Highness the Prince, etc. Li Chengqian felt very proud.
After retreating the people, those who were suppressed by other soldiers looked dumbfounded and didn't know how to deal with themselves. Ask Xu Yunyan.
"Where are Master and the others?"
"Them? They must be aiding the evildoers. Since we gave the main culprit a lighter sentence, they should also get a lighter sentence."
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, these people were very happy here, and they were finally given a lighter sentence. However, Xu Yunyan's next words made their mood fall to the bottom.
"Escort them to the county government and hand them over to the county magistrate. Those who should be exiled will be exiled, and those who should be distributed will be distributed.
They are not like these bosses. We drove him into the village. How good do you think these people who have been bullied by them for a long time will be treated?
They immediately had to experience the life of subordinates, and these people were used to helping others and bullying others.
Even if I put them back, other people will remember their past misdeeds and be afraid of them.
The most effective condition is to drive them away from here. "
Li Chengqian supported Xu Yunyan's arrangement 100%. No matter where the people in front of him were crying, they were pulled out, and Li Chengqian looked at Xu Yunyan.
"Master, what should we do if we take over so many houses and properties?"
"Simple, didn't His Highness the Prince have some food and grass that he didn't recover? Urgently turn the money in the house into food and grass and distribute it first to calm the people.
As for the remaining money, His Royal Highness might as well send it to His Majesty. Although it is a drop in the bucket compared to the money sent by the four counties of Dongzhou, it is still His Royal Highness's wish, isn't it? "
