"Is he Zhu Wuchang?" Tan Zaiwang confirmed his identity with the SIA intelligence personnel around him.
Zhu Wuchang admitted first: "Yes, yes, yes, I am Zhu Wuchang. If you don't believe me, you can ask these servants. They can all prove my identity."
The foreign intelligence officer next to him also nodded.
"So you sent hundreds of stones of food to the Chongshou Mansion to support the Xi'an Fort Banner Army and use it to deal with the Tiger Flag Army?" Tan Zaiwang looked at Zhu Wuchang with cold eyes.
Zhu Wuchang's face turned pale when he heard this, and the fat on his body trembled uncontrollably.
"No, no, I was forced. Yes, the people who were forced were the people in the Zhengshou Mansion who forced me to hand over the food. Really, they forced me." Zhu Wuchang defended himself incoherently.
Tan Zaiwang sneered and said: "How bold are the people in the Zhengshou Mansion? They dare to force a clan to donate food. Do you think I will believe it?"
"I didn't lie. It was really the people from the Honest Mansion who forced me." Zhu Wuchang knelt and crawled forward two steps, trying to hug Tan Zaiwang's feet, but was held down by the tiger-shaped flag cavalry on both sides.
Tan Zaiwang turned to the subordinates next to him and said: "The Zhu family colluded with the Xi'an Fort Banner Army and became the enemy of the Tiger Flag. The whole family was sent to the grassland, their property was confiscated, and the slaves were released. Those who were guilty of the most evil among the slaves will be punished according to the Ming Law. .”
After saying that, he left without looking back.
My people will take care of the rest.
"I am a clan member, I am a clan member, you can't do this to me, you can't do this to me." Zhu Wuchang shouted loudly as he watched Tan Zaiwang leave.
Tan Zaiwang walked out without looking back.
He would not let a big family like the Zhu family that was deeply entrenched in Xi'an Fort stay in Xi'an Fort. The family would be sent to the grassland to clear land for the Tiger Flag.
If there would not be a big war in Xi'an Fort next, and he was worried that killing Zhu Wuchang's family would put everyone in Xi'an Fort in danger and cause some trouble, Zhu Wuchang would not survive today.
After leaving Zhu's Mansion, Tan Zaiwang and his people rushed to Sun's house.
The people inside and outside the Sun family had already been subdued by Xu Guang and his men. The door of the Sun family was open, and a tiger-shaped flag cavalry was left outside the door to wait for Tan Zaiwang's arrival.
Arriving at the Sun family, Tan Zaiwang led people into the Sun family courtyard.
Although the Sun family is a big family in Xi'an Fort, it can't compare with Zhu Wuchang's Zhu family. The house alone is far inferior. One Zhu family is bigger than the three Sun families combined.
Tan Zaiwang led people into the yard and found that everyone in the Sun family had been taken to the yard for custody.
"Yingzheng." Xu Guang saw Tan Zaiwang arriving and hurriedly greeted him.
Tan Zaiwang glanced at the people in the yard and asked, "Are all the Sun family members here?"
"Everyone is here. That one is the master of the Sun family." Xu Guang pointed at the Sun family member who was kneeling at the front.
Tan Zaiwang walked over.
When he saw the female body covered with white cloth next to the Sun family, he frowned and said, "Why hasn't the body been enshrined yet?"
If it hadn't been for the cold weather, he suspected that the smell of corpses would have spread long ago.
"The Sun family said they didn't recognize the female corpse and did not admit that the female corpse was a married woman from the Sun family." Xu Guang explained at the side.
"Not from the Sun family?" Tan Zaiwang raised his eyebrows and looked at the intelligence officers from the Foreign Intelligence Service who were following him.
When he first arrived, it was impossible for him to know whether the female corpse was related to the Sun family, but he believed that the intelligence agents of the Foreign Intelligence Agency hidden in Xi'an Fort would give him a reasonable explanation.
The foreign intelligence officer shook his head slightly at Tan Zaiwang, which meant that the Sun family would tell lies again.
Tan Zaiwang walked up to the Sun family master and said condescendingly: "You mean this woman has nothing to do with your Sun family? But how did I hear that she is your Sun family's niece who married into the Chengshou Mansion as a concubine."
"My niece has died a long time ago. She has never married into the House of Honesty, let alone being a concubine for others." The master of the Sun family shook his head in denial.
Hearing this, Tan Zaiwang became more and more certain that the female corpse brought from Chengshou Mansion was the niece of the Sun family.
He could even guess some of the reasons why the Sun family refused to admit it.
It's nothing more than fear that after Hu Ziqi enters the city, he will liquidate the Sun family whose daughter was married to the Chengshou Mansion.
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. I believe that many of the servants who have met the Sun family know the identity of the female corpse. If I find out, Mr. Sun is blatantly lying to me. What will happen to him? I believe you can Think of it." Tan Zaiwang said threateningly.
The expression on Mr. Sun's face, which was kneeling on the ground, was gloomy and uncertain, and he was struggling in his heart whether to admit it or not.
Tan Zaiwang continued: "Give you another chance, is she the woman who the Sun family married as a concubine in the Chanshou Mansion?"
"Yes, yes." Master Sun stammered and admitted.
Tan Zaiwang raised the corners of his mouth, showed a smile and said: "It's good if you admit it, then let's settle the score!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Sun family master suddenly collapsed to the ground.
What worried him most finally happened.
"We, the Tiger-Character Banner, are rebels. Your Sun family, knowing that our Tiger-Character Banner army is coming, sent food to the Xi'anbao Banner Army, and married your niece to the Chengshou Mansion. Are you aware of your guilt?" At the end of the sentence, Tan Zaiwang shouted coldly. A sound.
The master of the Sun family said with a painful face: "I plead guilty. I plead guilty to all the charges. It's all my fault. I just ask the military master to let my family go. They are innocent. I did everything by myself." , if you want to kill, just kill me."
"Just plead guilty, but for the sake of your family who just died, you can avoid the death penalty, but you can't escape the living crime. I will hand over half of the family's land and grain storage as your punishment." Tan Zaiwang gave the Sun family master a punishment condition.
The strength of the Sun family in Xi'an Fort is far inferior to that of the Zhu family. It can be seen from the fact that the Sun family needs to marry their niece to Xi'an Fort as a concubine. If the Sun family wants to maintain the family business in Xi'an Fort, they can only Fawn over Xi'an Fort's ethics.
With the status of the clan, the Zhu family not only has the largest family business in Xi'an Fort, but even the people in the Zhengshou Mansion do not dare to offend the Zhu family.
"Won't you kill me?" The Sun family master was stunned. It was different from what he expected.
When thieves enter the city, they always want to plunder the city's wealth. Especially for a big family like the Sun family, they are never spared.
However, the bandit leader in front of him not only did not kill him, he also left most of the family property to the Sun family and only took away half of the land and grain reserves.
To him, this is no different than pie in the world.
Tan Zaiwang stared at the Sun family master and said solemnly: "I don't want any bad trouble to happen in Xi'an Fort City. Can your Sun family do it?"
As a big family in Xi'an Fort, the Sun family also has the necessary connections. With the Sun family here, they can better stabilize the hearts of Xi'an Fort.
"Yes, yes, yes." Mr. Sun nodded in agreement.
At this time, we also understood the purpose of the bandit leader leaving his Sun family behind. He wanted to use the Sun family's help to stabilize the situation in Xi'an Fort so that the people in the city could smoothly accept the rule of the bandits.
