Chapter 202: Clean up the big landlords

The old eunuch is gone.

Li Ran fell into silence for a long time, not because of how deafening the words of this old man were, but because his voice represented the voice of the lower-class people to a certain extent.

Class solidification...... The biggest problem that plagued the long-term stability of the imperial court was originally unsolvable.

But now there is a glimmer of opportunity.

Some headaches.

Li Ran had to find an opportunity to cash in on this opportunity, and there was only one chance.

The old man is under so much opposition and pressure today, he knows in his heart...... The officials will definitely not give up.

We have to hurry up and get the final word on the matter.

Let's start with a sample...... Luoyang and Chang'an, the landlords' old wealth in these two cities was cleaned up by him once, and the resistance was far smaller than that of other big cities, and they were the core areas of politics and economy.

Once the land of Guanzhong is taken, the resistance forces in the rest of the places will collapse without a leader, and when the time comes, he will not need to personally inspect it, and send a few capable men to deal with it.

The work was overwhelming, which made him a little absent-minded when holding the child, and he almost missed.

"Da Lang, you go and get busy, you don't have to accompany me all the time."

Xian Hui'er is empathetic, and she can already see the clues from his uncertain appearance, besides, the arrival of the eunuch today is still a return gift that the eldest lady of her family instructed her subordinates to prepare.

"It's okay, a little thing." , Li Ran didn't want Xian Hui'er to worry, there was nothing wrong with a white lie.

The plan was already in his mind, and all that was needed was to perfect the details.

“…… You're hiding it from me again, I've already asked Pei Min. ”

Xian Hui'er glared at him and pouted, "I can't help my father share his worries, it's all up to you, but you have to be careful." ”

Smiling awkwardly, Li Ran had no choice but to tell the truth, "Actually, whether this matter is big or not, whether it is small or not, depends on how far I want to deal with it." ”

"If the law is strictly followed, at least more than half of the landlords' old wealth in Datang must be rectified, and the attack is too big, and the master is estimated to be unable to withstand such a big pressure, so the best way is to crack down on the main culprit and divide the accomplices, but the problem is that this kind of favoritism is a compromise in itself."

It is equivalent to leaving a reason for criticism to the other party, Li Ran is not afraid, but the criticism borne by the old man is even greater.

Therefore, once and for all, you have to make the other party unable to pick out the thorns.

“…… I don't understand these big truths, you just do it, I'll take the child. ”

Xian Hui'er smiled gently, and gently stroked her son's little face, "By the way, grandma gave him a name, single word Zheng." ”

Li Zheng...... The old lady's thoughts are obvious, and the homophony should not be too obvious.

“…… The master agreed? ”

Li Ran's heart sank, he didn't care about Wu Zetian's thoughts, but if the old man acquiesced to his son's name, then the problem would be big.

At the very least, it means that there will be no objection to this child being passed on to the royal family and cultivated to become a prince.

"Well, Dad has already written Zheng'er's name on the Changming prayer lamp in the Zongren Mansion."

“…… Alas, that's it. ”

Li Ran shook his head helplessly, in ancient times, this was a bit of annoyance, the life of his parents was greater than the sky, he didn't want his son to participate in royal politics, but Wu Zetian's old fox tried his best to pry it, and the old man did not object, and even Xian Hui'er was half-pushed.

If you refuse again, it will be hypocritical.

Anyway, it's still early, and when I have the opportunity, I will find my father-in-law to take back my life.

It's better to deal with the problem at hand first......

Early the next morning, Li Ran gave up his otaku attributes, took Pei Min with him, and went out.

In the name of the governor, the pomp and circumstance can't be too shabby...... Hundreds of people accompanied them, all of them elite guards brought back from Liangzhou.

Go straight to the Luoyang Mansion.

walked with an old acquaintance Jinghui.

"Lord Shang Shuling, what does this mean?"

Blatantly running rampant on the streets with so many guards, majestic is majestic, but overstepping the norm.

"It's nothing, I'm the governor, don't bring more people, I'm afraid I won't be able to control the field."

Li Ran smiled meaningfully, making Jinghui instantly chrysanthemum tighten.

They are going, but the yamen, what kind of town do they need......

Thinking of yesterday's early court dispute, Jinghui has a head and two big, he is okay with this kind of clear stream, although there are big landlords attached to him, but most of them only hang a name, and collect some filial piety during the New Year's holidays, and the entanglement of each other's interests is not too big.

And the gentry who provided shelter for the big landowners were in trouble.

The suppression of big landlords has affected them not only in terms of economic benefits, but also in terms of contacts and potential resources!

“…… Immortal Master, prudence is better. ”

Jinghui had to bite the bullet and remind Li Ran not to mess around, if it caused a bloody pestle in the Luoyang Yamen, it would really be called a political incident.

"Well, if I wasn't careful, I wouldn't have brought you with me...... You used to be the chief official of the Luoyang Yamen, although you have been promoted, but in front of the subordinate officials, your words are also very weighty, and I need your prestige. ”

Li Ran was blunt, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

"I don't want to clean up these subordinates, but I need them to be impartial...... Presumably you also know that the big landlords forbade the tenant farmers to transfer to the workers' nationality, and did not hesitate to use force, which has violated the law, and the evidence is conclusive, and these subordinate officials are required to arrest people with their officials, if they refuse to do it, then I can only take the guards to do it, and by the way, these subordinate officials of the corpse and vegetarian meal will be dismissed and investigated, you know. ”

It couldn't be more blunt.

If you are obedient, everyone is fine, and if you still challenge the authority of this little master, then you can only say sorry.

"Okay, I'm going to let go of this old face."

Jing Hui weighed for a moment and happily agreed, Li Ran's path was not too much.

He even took the initiative to ask Ying, and after arriving at the yamen, he asked Li Ran to wait outside for a while, and he personally went inside to convey the decree.

It's just that the effect doesn't seem to be obvious...... After a full stick of incense, Jing Hui walked out with a gloomy face.

"Why, these subordinates don't even give you face?"

Li Ran frowned, and the murderous intent on his face suddenly appeared.

"I convinced a large part, but there were still a few who were stubborn...... They were all the sons of large landowners. ”

"Huh."

Li Ran sneered, waved his hand, and the team of guards behind him rushed in like wolves.

For a while, chickens flew and dogs jumped, and the entire Luoyang City Yamen shouted and killed.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, the guards came out with their heads in their hands.

"Well, that's over." , Jing Hui was already speechless in astonishment, but he didn't expect Li Ran to be so straightforward and decisive.

"Don't forget, I'm the governor, and I have the strength to cut first and then play, so let the other subordinate officials do things at once, and arrest the big landlords who dare to stop the tenant farmers...... Tell them that if they release them now and obey them later, I will not be guilty of the past, otherwise I will ......"

Li Ran didn't mind giving the other party one last chance to regret it, the landlord in Luoyang was not unclean, and the situation was still under control.

Jinghui took a deep breath and acted as a middleman again.

This time, the effect is much better, and in front of the head, there are really few warriors who dare to disobey...... In less than half a day, the big landlords were brought back.

All faces were earthy, but they were stiff in their necks, as if they didn't believe that Li Ran dared to kill all these hundreds of people in one go.

That's right, Li Ran really didn't dare to ...... At least go through a process, right?

The crime of the landlords and old fortunes was announced on the spot, and then he was put in prison, and the time of beheading was just one day later.

Well, what's the difference between this and hacking on the spot?

Before the high-ranking scholars could even object, they received news of blood from the execution ground.

Li Ran is crazy!
