Su Qi'an nodded and said loudly, "I will do what I say. I will abolish the slavery system and give you your freedom. Moreover, I will not stop you from leaving or leaving."
Su Qi'an's affirmative words suddenly shook the hearts of these Tucheng people.
When Qi'an City was allocated to Su Qi'an before, they had heard rumors about Qi'an City.
However, under the strict control of the little priest, these messages were basically cut off, and they did not dare to continue discussing the matter in private.
And with the defeat of the little priest, Su Qi'an took over the little priest's city, and with his personal guarantee, it was difficult not to tempt these natives.
Just kidding, the slave status of tens of thousands of people will be abolished, allowing them to have the dignity of normal civilians without restricting their freedom to come and go.
This would have been unimaginable at any time, but I didn't expect that the first thing the Liangren Marquis did when he came was to let them have the same status as the people of Qi'an City.
All of a sudden, the minds of these natives were strangely moved. Some of them did not care about the warning eyes of the trouble left behind, and continued to ask.
"May I ask Lord Marquis, what are your next plans?"
This question may seem a bit puzzling, but actually it is to see what the new owner's plans are for Tucheng.
This is closely related to their lives. If Su Qi'an, like the little priest, extorts excessive taxes, appoints Liang people, and exploits them, the natives.
They will prepare to run away in advance. Many of them have made up their minds. If Su Qian really does this, they will immediately get into the forest and go up the mountain to become bandits.
Although the rule of the little priest is bad, they can survive somewhat because of their status as members of the same clan, but this new master is a Liangren after all.
If it were the other way around and used the same tactics as the little priests to deal with them, they would have no way of surviving. They would simply go up the mountain to become bandits and survive as long as they can.
This native's question made Su Qi'an think highly of this person.
This man is not tall and tall, and is even a little thin, but his flowing eyes reveal cunning, which is a little different from other natives.
Su Qi'an said loudly, "I promise to you that all the people of Tucheng will be treated equally by me. Just like Qi'an City, I will arrange a place for you to live and work for you. At the same time, I will also set an example and work together." .”
"I hope you can truly regard Tucheng as your home. I understand the worries in your hearts and the grievances and grievances of the Liang people, and you are afraid of being retaliated against."
"But I have said that everyone will be treated equally and everyone must be governed according to the laws of Daliang. No matter who they are or what they have committed, they will be dealt with according to the laws and there will be absolutely no bias."
"But I have ugly words ahead. I have regained my freedom and become a citizen of Tucheng. If anyone takes the opportunity to cause havoc in Tucheng, destroys the relationship between the two parties, provokes conflicts, and takes the opportunity to cause trouble, I will definitely punish him severely. "
At the end of the sentence, Su Qian's voice was somewhat majestic, making everyone's hearts tremble.
They could feel that Su Qian's resolute attitude meant what she said.
But having said that, it is not an exaggeration to say that Su Qi'an's ugly words were based on any conditions and benefits for them.
This new master is completely different from the little priest. Even if what he just said was just to appease them, these words would not have come out of the little priest's mouth.
Treat Tucheng as our home and build Tucheng together.
This kind of goal was a complete dream in the era of the rule of the little priests. It would be great to be able to survive and survive. This kind of idea is just a luxury hope.
But looking at the majestic Marquis in front of him, who gave people a strong sense of trust, at least half of these natives had already turned to Su Qi'an.
I don't know when, at this moment, someone shouted.
"We will definitely abide by the order of the Marquis, spend our lives, follow the Marquis to the death, and defend our homeland."
"Swear to the death to follow the Marquis and defend our homeland!"
all of a sudden,
Most of the natives were infected by these words and started shouting together, which was very moving.
this
At this time, the remaining evil spirits hidden in the crowd looked at each other and retreated back in unison.
They know that they can no longer take advantage of information asymmetry and malicious rumors to mobilize people to cause trouble.
This Su Qi'an, with his frankness, made the natives almost become one-sided and move closer to Su Qi'an.
They also realized that they had to run away immediately. This Liangren Marquis was not that simple.
If they continue to stay, it won't be long before they are caught.
Rather than being caught passively, it is better to take advantage of such a good opportunity and run away.
As long as they leave the small priest city, they can hide their whereabouts secretly in the vast land of Tucheng.
When the time comes, while Su Qi'an is relaxing, he will stir up trouble a few more times.
Anyway, Tucheng County is so big, no matter how powerful this Liangren Marquis is, he will never be able to control all aspects of Tucheng.
They have plenty of time to have fun with this Liangren Marquis.
The mood of the people was so high that the little priest city was almost swamped by the wave of emotions.
And these remaining scourges left the Little Priest City smoothly and quietly.
Looking at the excited people behind them, they left the Little Priest City with sneers on their faces.
Originally, I was a little wary of this Liangren Marquis, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that. Still let them run out.
Just as they were about to leave here, they quickly disappeared into the primitive jungle beside them as quickly as possible.
Suddenly, a hundred or so people jumped out from the dense forest on the side, led by Wu Yong and Er Meng.
Twenty or thirty remaining scourges were suddenly surrounded.
Their expressions changed. They never expected that someone would block them here. Just as they were about to resist, an arrow shot out.
The person who bore the brunt of the attack was shot to death in one fell swoop, and at the same time, two menacing cold shouts were heard.
"Those who don't want to die should put down their weapons for me and surrender. If not, I will kill them without mercy."
Countless arrows have been aimed at them long ago. As long as they make a move, the next moment they will be shot into a sieve.
Although these henchmen were ready to resist, they saw the encirclement with no chance of winning and Ermeng's fierce face.
No matter how loyal they are to the little priest, ask yourself, which one of them would seize it if they were given a chance to survive, even if it was hope.
Who would think of dying when there is a chance to live?
After thinking for a while, these henchmen stopped resisting and squatted down obediently, holding their heads, and were quickly controlled.
With these scoundrels under control, Er Meng and Wu Yong breathed a sigh of relief.
It is definitely more than enough to capture them, but being able to capture these people without casualties is the best.
The two looked at each other and sighed as they felt the excitement ahead.
"As expected of you, sir, whether it is to manipulate people's hearts or make good judgments, let us stay here early and catch turtles in a jar. We can really predict the enemy first. It is a happy battle to fight like this. "
"It also makes me admire Mr.'s foresight even more."
Wu Yong deeply agreed. The most right thing he did was to decisively follow Su Qi'an before discovering Su Qi'an's identity.
Su Qi'an did not intend to kill them directly because of these scourges. Keeping them would be of great use.
After allaying the suspicion of the locals in the Little Priest City, the first thing Su Qian did was to hold a public prosecution meeting on the same high platform in the Little Priest City.
What I specifically talk about is how, under the rule of the little priests, these scoundrels, relying on the authority of the little priests, oppressed the lower class people like them.
This public prosecution conference is not just held once, but will be held on every piece of land in Tucheng.
This is done to break the deification of the little priests and eliminate these people
Reverence for the little priest.
We need to let them feel the dignity of truly being the masters of the country and turning themselves into human beings.
The public prosecution meeting held that day received a very good response in the Little Priest City, with at least 10,000 people present.
Fortunately, Su Qi'an made preparations in advance and sent half of the Dongshan Army, plus two-thirds of the government officials sent by Wu Yong, to come forward to maintain order.
This public prosecution meeting was successfully held.
At first, everyone was still a little reluctant to let go, but as those scoundrels came to power, the disgusting things they had done were revealed bit by bit. The oppressed natives could no longer bear it and came to the stage to complain bitterly about the abuse they suffered at the hands of the little priest. What kind of oppression.
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and his emotions infected everyone. Some people almost couldn't help it, and they wanted to beat these bastards to death when they got on stage.
Fortunately, the Dongshan Army stopped them in time and controlled the order at the scene, and Su Qian came forward.
After explaining to them for a while, the anger in everyone's hearts gradually calmed down.
This public prosecution meeting lasted for more than half a day, and everyone was quite unhappy.
But after this painful complaint, the resentment and anger accumulated in their hearts for many years were vented, and their mentality gradually improved.
I have a little more admiration for Su Qi'an, the new master.
With the public prosecution conference, one by one in Tucheng County, every piece of land was staged.
The most obvious sign that directly broke the deification of the little priests was that stone statues of the little priests were built on every piece of land to show their worship. Read the book
After the public prosecution meeting, it was smashed immediately, and the Rain Temple, which was regarded as a belief, was destroyed as many indigenous people liberated their minds.
The holding of these public prosecution conferences not only allowed the local land to turn over and regain its dignity as a human being, but also gave Su Qian an unexpected gain.
That is, the scoundrels left in various areas of Tucheng were reported one after another as the public prosecution meeting was held.
The scoundrels who secretly want to cause trouble never imagined that one day they would be exposed in this way.
It can be said that Su Qi'an easily resolved the arrangements of the high priest and Qingcheng County Sheriff with the minimum cost.
The two people who heard the news were stunned at first, and then turned pale as they cursed Su Qi'an for being despicable and shameless.
