In the yamen, Li Xuan stretched his right hand forward, pressed it on the eight-sided Han sword on the table, and then said directly: "I told you today that this news is true."
With one sentence, everyone raised their heads in disbelief, and then met Li Xuan's cold and gloomy eyes.
They immediately lowered their heads subconsciously, but at this time, Li Xuansen's cold voice sounded: "I would like to inform you all, if anyone cheats and conspires with the land during this investigation, don't blame me for having my butcher knife fall on you."
"I don't dare, my subordinates." Everyone in Muzhou bowed in fear.
A sneer flashed across Li Xuan's lips. How could these people obediently hand over the land in their hands?
When the time comes for the Eight Immortals to cross the sea, various means will be used.
For Li Xuan, it's just right.
Because only death and blood can make people truly obedient.
"Okay, everyone, please relax." Li Xuan suddenly smiled lightly, and everyone immediately felt that the pressure on their bodies was relieved.
At this time, I heard Li Xuan continue to speak: "Since this month, the people's livelihood in Muzhou has been in chaos. I have ordered a large number of fruits, vegetables, cattle, sheep, and gauze and cloth to be transported from Wuzhou to ensure that the people have all their needs.
In addition, a large number of monks and monks will also arrive in Muzhou.
Du Canjun asked you to prepare for a land sacrifice ceremony in the city in three days, and at the same time organize a temple fair after the meeting. "
Having said this, Li Xuan leaned forward slightly, looked at everyone and said meaningfully: "The Tianyin Sect has been completely pacified, and peace has returned to Muzhou. You must cherish this rare peaceful time!"
"I accept my order." Many of the people in the hall didn't look very good.
The King of Nanchang was talking a lot, but in the final analysis, it was just one word: kill.
Determine people's hearts with killing.
Now that the people have fields in their hands and have a surplus of food, they will naturally not miss the Tianyin Sect much anymore.
But if the common people have land and surplus food, it will harm the interests of the wealthy families.
Once the wealthy family is dissatisfied, they will face Li Xuanchi Guoguo's blade.
Many people were quietly communicating with each other while lowering their heads.
"Okay, let's talk about other things. There are many streams in Muzhou. Renovation of river channels..."
A group of people walked out of the state government office one after another.
Faintly, everyone subconsciously surrounded the three figures in the center.
"Brother Fang, what do you think about this matter now?" Everyone's eyes immediately fell on a man in his forties who was wearing black brocade clothes, with bright eyes and a short beard. This man was the largest family in Muzhou, the Fang family. The patriarch Fang Xian.
Fang Xian looked at the two people standing side by side with him and said with a wry smile: "What else can we do? Under the decree of King Nanchang, we just have to act in accordance with the law. Brother Yang Xian, brother Qi Xian, don't be smart at this time and make mistakes on your own! "
Fang Xian's words seemed to have something else in mind, and he strode away without waiting for anyone to ask further questions.
Others mused, seeming to understand.
The King of Nanchang, the pacifier of Muzhou, was originally here to kill people.
In the lobby of the government office, watching everyone leave, Li Xuan turned to look at Yu Ze: "Uncle Yu, do you think they will cooperate with us?"
"Anyone who is not stupid will understand that the prince's stay in Muzhou will not last long. As long as he has a little patience and waits until the new governor of Muzhou takes office, there is no need to take risks now." Yu Ze pointed out in one sentence. The truth of the matter.
"That's why it is necessary to thoroughly investigate and determine the acres of land in Muzhou before the governor of Muzhou takes office. As long as every family has a hundred acres of land and every family has a little surplus food, who will be so bored as to follow the sky? The Yin Sect goes to rebel."
Li Xuan sighed, turned to Qiu Zhenmu, and said, "Brother Qiu, let the brothers of Qianniuwei walk around the streets more these days, so that the people of Muzhou can feel more the majesty from the imperial court. "
Qiu Zhenmu didn't hesitate at all and immediately handed over his hand: "I will obey the order."
"After great chaos, if you want to achieve great governance, lenient punishments and good people are the right way to go."
Li Xuan looked at Qiu Zhenmu and said directly: "If there are officials and others who oppress the people, Qianniu Guard will arrest them immediately. If there is resistance, they will be killed first and then reported."
"Here!" Qiu Zhenmu immediately raised his hands with a solemn expression.
Li Xuan nodded. At this moment, a burst of rapid horse hooves came from outside the government office.
Immediately, a blue-clad soldier appeared at the door, and in the blink of an eye he was running towards Li Xuan quickly.
A short note had appeared in Li Xuan's hand. Li Xuan glanced at it and handed it to Yu Ze. At the same time, he said to everyone: "More than a thousand pioneers of Tianyin Sect have arrived at the pass of Xishan Mountain. A team of 100 people is charging. Shoot them all with crossbows."
As soon as the battle report came, everyone present suddenly became solemn.
Xu Jian immediately held up his hands and said, "My lord, they are using human lives to test the swords of the soldiers!"
"Yeah!" Li Xuan nodded solemnly and said, "The Tianyin Sect doesn't have many members, and human life is the only weapon they can use."
"Then they will launch a crazy attack, just like at Meiling Pass." Qi Guang looked at Li Xuan worriedly.
In the battle of Meiling Pass, the Tianyin Sect suffered more than 10,000 casualties.
If they don't learn their lesson this time, there will be many casualties.
Qi Guang himself was from Muzhou and later moved to Wuzhou.
Although he had no faith in the Tianyin Sect, his local nostalgia still made him a little intolerable.
"No, after several fights, even a stupid pig should learn to be more cautious." Li Xuan flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked towards the state office, and said calmly: "Everyone go and do your work. The matter in Xishan will not happen today. As a result, the most important thing for us now is to clear the land and calm people's hearts..."
"Here!" Everyone present bowed slightly.
Although Li Xuan didn't say much, his judgment on the battle situation could be clearly seen from his attitude.
The next day, early morning.
Li Xuan wore a black robe with gold threads and stood on the south gate dock of Muzhou, closely guarded by Qianniu Guards.
Boats were constantly plying back and forth on the Xin'an River in front of them, and behind them stood many Muzhou city chiefs and village chiefs, but not many other high-ranking officials.
Under the city gate in the distance, people were coming and going, with a hint of fear in their eyes.
In just one night, Li Xuan's name as a murderous butcher was completely known.
Everyone looked at Li Xuan with a trace of hatred and a trace of helplessness.
After all, according to rumors, the Demon King who killed millions of people a day and night was never a good person.
This kind of news even surpassed the news that Li Xuan wanted to inventory the acres of land and give each male a hundred acres of land.
Li Xuan stood at the front of the pier with an indifferent expression, turning a blind eye to all the strange looks behind him.
At this moment, a tall three-masted sailboat suddenly appeared downstream of the river in the distance.
Driven by the strong wind, they quickly came towards the city of Muzhou.
Immediately afterwards, more large ships appeared and lined up towards the dock where Li Xuan was.
The boats moved very fast under the strong wind, and a whole fleet of boats quickly stopped in front of Li Xuan.
The deck board was put on the pier, and immediately, Wuzhou Dushui Division Sicheng Henghan stepped off the ship, and then raised his hands to Li Xuan: "Your Majesty, according to the order of the envoy, the grain and grass to support Muzhou have been shipped."
"Let's pack it up a little and unload it into the warehouse." Li Xuan waved her hand, looked back and asked, "The people are here too, let them get off the boat."
"Here!" Henghan immediately backed down, followed closely by a group of gray-clothed soldiers with calm expressions, neatly disembarking from the ship.
There were four ships, and a total of more than 2,000 people disembarked from the ships, and more than 2,000 Muzhou soldiers.
These were the people of Muzhou who were captured and surrendered on Sanheguan and Wujiang River. At this moment, they all returned to Muzhou.
The village chiefs and village chiefs at the rear were extremely surprised to see these people.
They originally thought that these people were dead, but they didn't expect that they were still alive.
Li Xuan walked up to the crowd and looked at them with an expression on her face.
He said solemnly: "I once promised you that I would send you back to your hometown and grant each of you a hundred acres of land. Now that you have returned to your hometown, Fa Cao is renovating the household register and re-granting land. In a few days, you will be here." At home. After you return home, remember to be kind to your parents, work hard, and enjoy the rest of your life."
Li Xuan pointed sideways at the village chiefs behind him, and said coldly: "If anyone bullies you, you can report it to me, and I will make the decision for you."
ah!
Hearing what Li Xuan said, the village chiefs behind him looked very embarrassed for a moment.
However, the eyes of the soldiers in front of Li Xuan showed joy, and they quickly raised their hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"You guys can go home later." Li Xuan turned her head and looked aside, shouting in a low voice: "Qi Guang!"
"The official is here." Qi Guang stood up immediately.
"You personally lead people to protect the village chiefs and send all these people home."
"I accept my order." Qi Guang immediately held his hand solemnly.
"Yes!" Li Xuan nodded, looked at the city gate not far away, and said to everyone in a deep voice: "Recently, I heard that someone in Muzhou spread rumors that my king killed millions. You all came back from Wuzhou Yes, what are the details? Please explain it to your family and friends."
"Young people, take your orders!" Many Muzhou soldiers present immediately bowed their hands and bowed their heads.
Some of them were captured by Li Xuan at Sanheguan, and some of them surrendered on their own initiative above the Wujiang River.
Whether they had seen the Guancheng fire that filled the sky or the violent storm on the Wujiang River, these people were full of awe for Li Xuan.
This time they return, if relevant things spread, they will immediately break the previous rumors that Li Xuan is the murderous devil.
But it is precisely because the previous rumors of the murderous devil spread too widely. With this reversal, the impression that Li Xuan can control the wind and rain will immediately be deeply engraved in people's hearts.
"Your Majesty is so clever. He has easily grasped the hearts and minds of the people of Muzhou. In this way, with the combined use of many methods, the people of Muzhou can feel at ease."
Du Bixing watched the soldiers and the village chief disappear into the city gate in the distance. He stepped forward and bowed his hands to Li Xuan: "I admire you."
Li Xuan smiled faintly, then waved her hand and said, "Mr. Du will handle the remaining details. I will wait here for the battle report from the front line."
"I accept your orders." Du Bixing looked solemn, then turned around and chased the people in front.
"Your Majesty wants Du Jiyan to stay in Muzhou as Sima?" Yu Ze watched Du Bixing go away with some curiosity, and then looked at Li Xuan with his hands raised.
Wang Bo and others on the side were also surprised when they heard this.
"It's just a bit of exercise." Li Xuan shook his head slightly, looked at everyone and said, "Mr. Du is well connected with everyone in the Dudu Mansion. It is naturally more convenient for him to handle these matters."
After hearing what Li Xuan said, everyone present understood.
"Let's go, let's go to the city gate first. The military report from the front line should be here soon."
