Chapter 939: Hard and Soft
Yang Jun returned to Lucheng County in the middle of the night the next day with 500 soldiers, and he ordered the soldiers to rest outside the city for a while, while he sneaked into the city first.
They must take the first step to grasp the evidence of Fei Yang's secret communication with Zhu Tao, whether it is the Counsellor's Hall or the King of Jin, it is strictly forbidden to frame businessmen and ordinary people under the pretext of fornicating with the enemy country, and once it is verified, they will be severely punished.
Therefore, if Han Yu wants to move the Fei family, he must have real human and physical evidence, not only the Zhang family and the Gao family, but more importantly, the parties involved, if the person sent by Zhu Tao can be caught, the person named Peng Lu, then the human evidence will be complete, followed by physical evidence, and the best physical evidence is letters and the like.
Yang Jun sneaked into the Fei Mansion with five or six soldiers with high martial arts at the third watch, after all, the Fei family is only a big local family, and will not be as heavily guarded as a wealthy family, they first found the Fei Mansion housekeeper, the Fei Mansion housekeeper's surname is Mao, he was awakened in his sleep, and found a cold and shining knife on his neck, so frightened that he almost wetted the bed.
"You guys.... Who is it? Butler Mao asked in a trembling voice.
"Less nonsense, where does Peng Lu live?" A deep voice asked.
As soon as the big housekeeper Mao hesitated, the knife increased its strength, and the blood on his neck flowed down, and the big housekeeper Mao was so frightened that he was so frightened that he said in a loud voice: "He lives in the second room of the East Courtyard, and the entire East Courtyard is ..... He lives alone! ”
The big butler Mao was quickly tied up and his mouth was gagged with socks.
Several black-clothed people quickly found the second room in the east courtyard, and sure enough, as the big housekeeper said, the other rooms were padlocked outside, only this room was locked from the inside, and there was a faint snoring sound from inside, and several black-clothed people gently pried open the window and turned in.........
Yang Jun sneaked into Fei Yang's inner study, he hung a layer of opaque black cloth on the window, lit a small lantern, and quickly rummaged through the room, the room was relatively simple, only a desk and a bookcase, but the desk and bookcase were all searched, and there was no letter he was looking for.
At this time, Yang Jun's eyes fell on the corner of the desk, where there was a small box, at first he thought it was an incense burner, but soon found that it was not an incense burner, but a copper box with a small gold lock on it.
'Click! Yang Jun broke the lock, opened the box, inside was a thick stack of letters, tied with silk, the first letter was the letter written by Zhu Tao to him, Yang Jun looked at the date of writing the letter, this is very important, the date is December last year, Zhu Tao has been driven to Liaodong, this is the proof of Fei Yang's collusion with Zhu Tao.
Yang Jun took the letter and left quickly.......
Before dawn, five hundred soldiers surrounded the Fei family, and at this time, Fei Yang was also woken up, he got up and put on his clothes and asked, "What happened?" ”
The chief housekeeper trembled and said: "Someone sneaked into the mansion last night, and Peng Lu, who lives in the East Courtyard, has disappeared!" ”
Fei Yang was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Did you leave a note?" ”
"Nothing left? It must have been taken captive. ”
'Taken captive?' ’
Fei Yang felt a fear in his heart, who could have done this?
At this time, he suddenly thought of something, turned around and hurried to his study, he walked quickly to the desk and squatted, his heart was cold all of a sudden, only to see that the small lock on the copper box had been unscrewed and thrown aside.
"Big brother, it's terrible!"
Brother Fei Hong crawled in, and shouted in horror: "There are a lot of troops outside, and they have surrounded our mansion. ”
"Boom!" There was a dull thud from the front yard, it was a sound coming from the other side of the gate, someone was banging on the gate.
Fei Yang slowly stood up, his face turned pale, this time the Fei family was in a catastrophe.
...........
Half an hour later, more than 20 Fei family men were escorted out of the mansion by the soldiers in despair, the mansion was already crowded with people, thousands of county residents came to see the excitement, the county residents talked a lot, someone had already informed them, the Fei family colluded with Zhu Tao to try to cooperate with the outside and seize Lucheng County.
The Fei family has a good reputation in Lucheng County, and some old people want to intercede for them, but when they heard that they colluded with Zhu Tao, no one dared to come forward.
The Gao family and the Miao family were also listed, they watched the Fei family being escorted away with mixed feelings, on the one hand, they grew out of a bad breath, on the other hand, he was also worried in his heart, the Fei family was unlucky, and their life would not be easy, after all, many of their interests were closely related.
Although it is the first time for Han Yu to deal with this kind of thing, he is very determined, he wants to gain a firm foothold in Lucheng and straighten out all matters in Yantian, he must get rid of the Fei family, or drive away the Fei family, this is his only chance, if he can't seize this opportunity, he will be the same as the two predecessors, and finally resign and leave.
At this time, Xu Jian walked into the official room and handed a pigeon letter to Han Yu, "This is a letter from His Royal Highness the King of Jin to you!" ”
Han Yu's spirits perked up, and he was waiting for the letter from His Royal Highness King Jin!
Xu Jian sent an eagle letter to Chang'an the day before yesterday, and today the reply came, he hurriedly opened the letter and read it carefully, there were only a few simple sentences on it, "Escort Fei Yang and the human and material evidence to Chang'an, confiscate his family property, and start the production of salt fields as soon as possible." ’
Han Yu's heart brightened, and he knew what to do.
An hour later, Han Yu came to the Fei family and saw Fei Cheng, the head of the Fei family, who was under house arrest, the eldest son was arrested, and the family man was detained, he seemed to be ten years old, Philadelphia was full of fear in his heart at this time, was the Fei family going to be completely destroyed in his own hands?
"How does the Han County Order plan to send my Fei family?" Philadelphia asked in a hoarse voice.
Han Yu said coldly: "The Fei family's salt fields and real estate will be confiscated as officials, as for the Fei family, I will give you two ways to choose, the first way, the Fei family is over fifteen years old, and men under fifty years old will be exiled to Lingnan for ten years; On the second road, the government can not pursue the Fei family, except for Fei Yang, but there are additional conditions. ”
"On what terms?" Philadelphia jerked his head up, a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
"The conditions are very simple, the Fei family moved out of Cangzhou with a fine softness, I don't care where you go? But it is necessary to leave Cangzhou. ”
Fei Cheng nodded slowly, "Let me think about it!" ”
"I'll give you two days, you choose."
After Han Yu finished speaking, he turned around and left, in fact, Fei Cheng had no choice, he closed his eyes and thought about it, the Fei family still has a mansion in Hejian County, Yingzhou, he can move the family to Hejian County, and then buy land and develop there.
Fei Cheng let out a long sigh, the wild goose that had been fighting all his life was actually pecked blind by the little goose, this new county made Han Yu's methods quite ruthless, and he really looked away.
.........
Early the next morning, Fei Cheng informed Han Yu that he accepted the second plan, and at this time Fei Yang and Peng Lu had been escorted to Chang'an by salt boat.
More than 20 children of the Fei family were all released and asked to leave Lucheng County before dark, and at noon, about 100 people of the Fei family left Lucheng County in more than 30 ox carts and went to Hejian County, Yingzhou.
As more than 30 ox carts disappeared into the distance, the Fei family finally came to an end in Lucheng County.
At this time, Han Yu convened the Gao family and the Miao family to discuss the matter, he came up with a solution, when Zhu Tao forcibly requisitioned or bought about 30,000 acres of salt fields from the people at a low price, and later Zhu Tao took out 20,000 acres of salt and iron through Cangzhou Thorn Shi Libin to reward the three families, Han Yu thought that 20,000 acres of salt and iron were not legal, so 20,000 acres of salt fields must be taken back to the government, and the government took out another 10,000 acres of salt fields, together with 20,000 acres of salt fields, and returned them to the people of Lucheng County.
After Han Yu strongly suppressed the Fei family, the Gao family and the Miao family were frightened, they both realized that the Fei family was actually destroyed on the 20,000 acres of salt fields, if they didn't accept it, they would become the public enemies of the people of the county, and in desperation, the two heads of the family could only accept Han Yu's plan.
When the news came, the city was boiling, and the people beat gongs and drums to celebrate the return of their possessions.
Next, Han Yu and the Cangzhou Prefecture and the Hebei Salt and Iron Administration reached a profit-sharing agreement, the county government is responsible for organizing salt workers to dry salt, the Salt and Iron Administration will purchase sea salt at a price of ten cents per bucket, ten cents to remove three wen wages, the local government to obtain seven cents per bucket of benefits, the county government to take four wen, the state government to take three wen, the private salt field produced by the same price of ten wen per bucket by the salt and iron administration.
After clarifying the interests of all parties, the lower salt pan in Lucheng County began large-scale salt mining.
Two months later, the situation in Lucheng County had completely stabilized, and Yang Jun and his two aides, as well as dozens of soldiers and county commander Han Yu, left Lucheng County and returned to the capital.
Not long after the Fei family was driven out of Lucheng County, the joint shipbuilding workshop of the Dugu family and the Dou family also officially signed a land sale agreement, selling 500 mu of land on the south bank of Zhangshui to the Dugu family and the Dou family at a price of two yuan per mu, and the Zhangshui shipbuilding workshop also operated.
