Faced with Han Feng's condescending questions.
The representatives of the four major families all had pale faces and dim eyes at this moment.
They never imagined that an ordinary patrol tonight would cause such a huge disaster.
Robbery of imperial tribute, murder of court officials, and false reporting of military information were three major crimes, and all the evidence was available.
Although they always feel that this matter is very strange, they also know very well that they have been convicted of these crimes and now there is only one way to die.
After a period of silence, the gray-haired old man from the Duanmu family said dejectedly: "My Lord Governor, I know that I have committed a serious crime and cannot survive.
But this matter is all the fault of the old man. The young descendants of the Duanmu family just obeyed orders. Please, Lord Governor, let them live. "
After hearing this, the other three people also spoke one after another, wanting to bear all the blame.
When Han Feng heard this, a smile appeared on his cold face, but the smile was even colder.
"Haha... Do you really think that national law is child's play?
Do you know that the crime you have committed is a heinous crime, and according to the law, the nine tribes should be punished! "
When the four people heard this, their bodies shook violently at the same time!
Han Feng continued to speak: "Not only the four of you, but also the clansmen just now, and all the clansmen in your family will have to pay the price for this. The whole clan will be destroyed, no one will be left alive!"
"The whole clan is destroyed, no one is left alive!"
When Han Feng's cold and bone-chilling voice reached the ears of the four of them, they felt as if they had been struck by lightning. Their feet became weak and they fell to their knees.
Only then did they realize the seriousness of the problem.
At that moment, the four people kowtowed madly to Han Feng at the same time and begged: "My Lord Governor, please show mercy and don't implicate our family!"
The four of them really felt extreme fear. There were also their wives, children, children, and descendants in the family, looking at their relatives.
If their entire clan is wiped out because of their crimes tonight, then they will become the eternal sinners of the family. Even if they go to hell after death, they will be spurned and cursed by their clansmen!
Seeing the four people kowtowing like pounding garlic, shivering, they were extremely frightened.
The cold look on Han Feng's face finally slowly subsided.
With a wave of his hand, a wisp of soft energy lifted the four of them up. Han Feng said slowly: "Four of you, I don't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately, let alone see you being exterminated!"
After hearing this, the four of them immediately looked at Han Feng with hope.
Just listen to Han Feng say: "Sigh... Who makes me too soft-hearted to see such a scene? Don't say that I don't give you a chance. Now you have a great opportunity to redeem yourself."
The four people's eyes suddenly brightened, and they saluted Han Feng with great excitement.
"Thank you, Lord Governor, for saving your life!"
Han Feng waved his hand and said: "Don't thank me too early. If you want to atone for your sins, you must first make meritorious deeds. Then you must do what the governor asks you to do."
The four people hurriedly asked Han Feng what he wanted them to do, and promised that they would do it.
Han Feng heard this and said calmly: "This matter is quite simple. Now that the rebels in our Xichuan Province are in rebellion, the strength of the army of the Governor's Mansion is enough to deal with it.
But just in case, we still need the help of your big families. "
As soon as these words came out, the four of them were startled, and then one of them said cautiously: "Your Majesty the Governor, the four of us are working for the Governor."
When Han Feng heard this, his eyes suddenly turned cold and he said, "It seems that you still want to exterminate your race."
One sentence, frightened the four of them into silence.
Han Feng said: "Before this, you sent so few people to deal with the problem, but now, you have committed the crime of deceiving the sky, and the whole clan should be punished.
Since I want to save the lives of your entire clan, all the members of your four major families will naturally work for me. "
As soon as these words came out, the four of them finally understood what the Governor meant, but they hesitated for a moment and did not dare to answer.
When Han Feng saw this, he was not upset and said calmly: "I know that you can't make the decision in this matter.
The governor can give you three days to return to your family, have a good discussion with your family head, make a decision, and then come and report to the governor.
In addition, the governor will seal up any evidence of the crimes you committed today.
If the governor does not receive a satisfactory answer within three days, the evidence will be sent directly to the imperial capital.
When the time comes, your Majesty will issue a decree to destroy all your families. Don't blame me for being unkind. "
When the four people heard this, they were frightened in their hearts. How could they dare not to obey? They all nodded like chickens pecking at rice.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Han Feng waved his hand and said, "Okay, hurry up and go back to your family. Come back to see me within three days."
Before letting the four people leave, Han Feng did not forget to take out a letter of incrimination and asked the four people to sign and deposit it on the spot before letting them go.
But the four of them had the lives of the entire clan at stake at the moment, so they didn't dare to neglect. They all ran as fast as they could and rushed to the clan.
Seeing the four people disappearing into the sky, Han Feng glanced at the paper on his hand and put it away, with a satisfied smile finally appearing on his face.
On the side, Shi Yishan, who had not said a word, was already stunned.
This...is this done?
Shi Yishan's head was full of "exclamation marks" and "question marks". Before Han Feng became the governor, he had tried to win over the seven major families.
However, the seven major families were wary of Shen Tai and the power behind him, and had always been conciliatory towards Shi Yishan, refusing to have any interaction with him. Even if they used coercion and inducement, they could not win over the family.
Who would have thought that in just a few moments tonight, Han Feng would have seized the "vital gate" of the four major families and coerced the four major families to work for him on the crime of extermination.
Although he has not received the final answer yet, Shi Yishan knows.
With such a fatal handle in Han Feng's hands, unless the four major families really want to be exterminated, they will definitely cooperate with Han Feng and be willing to be driven.
After being shocked for a long time, Shi Yishan couldn't help but speak in confusion, seeming to be asking Han Feng, but also seeming to be talking to himself.
"It's strange. The tribute that our Xichuan Province paid to the imperial capital was already delivered at the beginning of the year. How come another batch was sent to the border of the battlefield? And it was personally escorted by the Chief Secretary?"
Before Shi Yishan could think about it, Han Feng took action directly, put all the treasures into the storage ring, and said casually under Shi Yishan's surprised gaze.
"These are gifts prepared by this governor for His Majesty. But since what happened, it doesn't matter if you don't give these gifts, I will just take them back."
"Well……"
When Shi Yishan heard this, he was stunned on the spot and finally understood everything.
Needless to say, it must be the arrangement of the Governor-General for the Chief Secretary to escort the tribute passing through this place today.
All of this is just a trap that the Governor has designed long ago, which is to trap the four major families to death, and then he himself will be their savior and control everything.
"hiss……!"
Shi Yishan, who wanted to understand all this, couldn't help but secretly take a breath of air.
Xin Xin said, the Governor is not only unique in military training and has extraordinary strength, but his conspiracy methods are also not ordinary, and he can actually use such insidious and vicious tricks.
But after Han Feng took back the tribute, he turned to look at Shi Yishan who looked strange and said: "Chief Commander Shi, do you think this governor is a little sinister and vicious?"
A chill ran down Shi Yishan's spine, and he waved his hand quickly, "No, no, no... The governor is so clever in his methods, I will always admire him."
Han Feng smiled playfully, and then said to himself: "Now, of the seven major families, these four can no longer escape, and there are three more. How should we deal with them?"
When Shi Yishan heard this, he naturally understood what Han Feng meant, and immediately analyzed it for Han Feng: "Your Excellency, the Murong family, the Tian family and the Liu family have the closest relationship with Shen Tai, and they can be said to be die-hard allies.
Now these three families are not paying attention to us at all. They want to frame them and use this as a threat. I'm afraid it won't be easy to handle. "
Hearing this, Han Feng glanced at Shi Yishan and said: "Master General, how could you have such insidious thoughts? It is really not the behavior of a gentleman!"
When Shi Yishan heard this, he twitched the corner of his mouth fiercely and said nothing.
Han Feng frowned and thought.
He was no stranger to the three families of Murong, Tian and Liu.
When he was at Tiannan College, he often had conflicts with the children of these three families. He never imagined that he would have to fight against these three families now.
After thinking for a moment, Han Feng's eyes suddenly brightened, he looked at Shi Yishan and said, "Mr. Shi, which of these three houses is closest to this place?"
After hearing this, Shi Yishan replied: "Among the three families, the Murong family in Donglin Prefecture is the closest to Zhongyue City. It is only a few hundred miles away."
"Murong family!"
Han Feng's eyes became brighter and brighter, a look of interest appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but think of a familiar cold face in his mind.
"That's very good. Let's start with Murong's family tomorrow!"
Seeing the faint smile on the corner of the governor's mouth, Shi Yishan felt a shiver in his heart for some reason.
Vaguely, he felt that the Governor was trying to be mean again.
