Chapter 61: Annihilation

Lin Yuan looked at him like a fool, and Dai Lining's heart was furious when he looked at him with laughter and eyes. Suppressing the fear in his heart, Dai Lining tried his best to make himself look directly at Lin Yuan.

"It's okay, let you die and understand." Lin Yuan said, "Let's start from the recent past, in the tenth year of Qide, that is, this summer, you and Xue Li conspired to destroy the river embankments in Huiji Shanyin and other counties, causing an autumn flood to flood 15 counties and millions of people to be affected. ”

"In the seventh year of Qide, you sent people to attack and kill my Great Zhou's medicine merchants in the north, trying to monopolize the medicinal materials business in the north, although you didn't achieve the ultimate goal, but you can't hide the matter of killing ten caravans."

"In the fifth year of Qide, you bribed the former Yangzhou prefect to make it shoddy, causing a large number of counterfeit drugs to flow into Jiangnan Province, and the medical hall where the medicine was found to be problematic was murdered by you, and a total of six people died."

"This one is even more powerful, in the eighteenth year of Shenlong, that is, when the first emperor was in power, there was a shocking Lu family tribute medicine case, you used the pill to pay tribute to the Lu family, and after the pill was found to be a problem, you teamed up with the rebel party in the DPRK to falsely accuse the Lu family of plotting rebellion, causing the Lu family to be razed by the three clans, and your Dai family replaced the Lu family in one fell swoop, and sat on the top deal of the medicine merchants in Yangzhou City."

Glancing at Dai Lining, who had collapsed to the ground, Lin Yuan sneered: "I can't see it, the kind-faced Master Dai is acting so unscrupulously, for his own selfish interests, regardless of the lives and deaths of millions of people, it's not that his duke has never cut people in the north, but a cold-blooded thing like yours is still willing to bow down." ”

Dai Lining's eyes were already blank, he didn't know how Lin Yuan found out, but every sentence was true, this was indeed what he had done over the years, and the Dai family was finished.

"Haha, hahaha, Yasukuni Gong is very capable, and the investigation of the case is not leaky, hahaha..." Looking at Dai Lining, who suddenly laughed wildly, Ye Tao was a little disgusted, and waved his hand, and Dai Lining was dragged down by the armor.

"Rush in, don't kill indiscriminately, and seize all items." Ye Tao ordered.

In an instant, countless sergeants rushed into Dai's mansion. From time to time, there were frightened cries for help from the house, Lin Yuan frowned, he still didn't adapt to this environment, and looked at the Dai Mansion at night, this mansion built on flesh and blood made Lin Yuan very disgusted. Seeing that Lin Yuan was not in a very good mood, Yang Tai and the others couldn't say anything, any crime committed by the Dai family was enough for the Dai family to die once. This kind of person with a human face and a beast's heart will feel disgusted when he looks at it more, and it is reasonable for Yasukuni Gong to be disgusted.

In a carriage not far away, Zhang Yao lowered the curtain and sighed. Who would have thought that Dai Lining was such a person. Seeing other people's buildings rising and falling, Zhang Yao thought for the first time, will the Zhang family be like this in the future, look at the tragic situation of the Dai family today, can the Zhang family really avoid it?

Lin Yuan turned his horse's head and planned to leave, the Dai family had already dealt with it here, and it was too uncomfortable to stay here. Overnight, nearly a hundred years of wealthy businessmen were uprooted. Yangzhou City was filled with the sound of soldiers and officials arresting people all night long, and many large families closed their doors, and for the first time they felt that they were no different from lambs to the slaughter in front of power.

Early the next morning, the people of Yangzhou who went out suddenly found that the door of Ronghetang, the largest pharmacy in Yangzhou, was sealed, and they were still curious about what happened.

Lin Yuan is the first time to come to the Spring Garden, as the most prestigious garden in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Lin Yuan is very curious. Zhang Yao also accompanied him, and when he saw that Lin Yuan was interested, he introduced on the side: "The Spring Garden was built by the old lady of the Shi family, which was originally the Jiangnan Palace of the first emperor, and later the palace throttled, so the illegal things in the Spring Garden were demolished and sold to the wealthy merchants in Jiangnan, and the Dai family paid the most money at that time, so this garden has always been taken care of by the Dai family." ”

"The scenery is good, it's rare to see so many scenes in this winter." Lin Yuan praised.

"It's good that grandpa is happy, the Dai family's property has been confiscated now, but this spring garden is a little special, and the remaining families have discussed it, planning to hand over the property rights in their hands, and ask grandpa to take a look." Zhang Yao said.

Lin Yuan glanced at Zhang Yao, took the title deed in Zhang Yao's hand and glanced at it, and said with a smile: "It's the first time I've seen the title deed with a blank name, Lord Zhang, can you tell the Duke what this means?" ”

Zhang Yao lowered his head and said, "It depends on what Grandpa means, this is the meaning of each family." ”

"It still doesn't seem to hurt." Lin Yuan said, Zhang Yao heard Lin Yuan's brainless words, first confused, and then shocked, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa, don't misunderstand, the families have no intention of wooing Grandpa." ”

"Why are you so nervous? Did I say anything? Lin Yuan said with a smile.

Zhang Yao didn't dare to squeak, and Lin Yuan was a little bored when he saw this. waved his hand and said, "Give these things to Lord Huang, I still have to go to Zhenjiang in the next few days, and I don't have time to pay attention to these idle things." ”

"Got it, grandpa." Zhang Yao responded.

The news of Yangzhou's raid on Dai's house soon spread to Zhenjiang Mansion, but Shen Lian did not find any change in Xue Li, and today Shen Lian will take Lianggu first.

Liang Gu was woken up in the Qinglou early in the morning, and walked into the mansion scolding all the way, Liang Gu was a little irritable these days, and finally had time to relax, who knew that his subordinates said that Shen Lian was looking for himself early in the morning.

As soon as Liang Gu walked into the lobby, he found that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and after looking at Shen Lian sitting in the hall, Liang Gu stepped forward and saluted: "My subordinates have seen adults." ”

"How is Liang Zhutou doing this time?" Shen Lian asked.

Liang Gu was a little puzzled, but still replied: "My subordinates have adapted to the work of headcatchers during this time. ”

"Oh, it turns out that the duty of the head catcher is to stay in the Qinglou every night?" Shen Lian chuckled.

Liang Gu frowned, and before he could speak, Shen Lian shouted angrily: "Liang Gu, are you guilty? ”

"Please also make it clear what crime you have committed?" Liang Gu confronted each other.

"What you're doing is really afraid of dirty eyes, take a look for yourself." Shen Lian threw a book at Liang Gu's feet, picked it up with some confusion, and Liang Gu just glanced at it, and his face turned pale. hurriedly knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, this is all slander, and his subordinates are wronged." ”

"Don't pretend, the second master of Huaishan." Shen Lian sneered.

Liang Gu was shocked, how did Shen Lian know his identity. Shen Lian smiled secretly, although he knew that he was Xue Li's person, but when Ling Yun found out that he was the second leader of the Huai Mountain Thieves after investigation, Shen Lian was still a little surprised.

Ten years of Shenlong, a thief of the Southern Liang fled to the territory of the Great Zhou, burning, killing and looting all evil, the imperial court several times of encirclement and suppression did not eradicate the root cause, a part of the flow of people to the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, occupied several mountains in Huaishan, over the years attacked and harassed the counties of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, causing a lot of losses.

Later, the imperial court sent people to encircle and suppress several times without results, and at that time, the court suspected that someone in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was colluding with the Huaishan bandits, but there was no evidence. I never thought that this Liang Gu turned out to be the second leader of the Huai Mountain thief, as long as it was confirmed that Liang Gu was a member of the Xue family, he couldn't get rid of this crime of rebellion.

Seeing that Shen Lian had recognized his identity, Liang Gu was ruthless and drew a knife to slash at Shen Lian. As if he had known that Liang Gu would jump off the wall in a hurry, Shen Lian looked at Liang Gu who rushed over with a light smile and was unmoved.

Liang Gu frowned, but now there is no room for regret, the force under his feet, the knife came to Shen Lian in an instant, at this time a horizontal knife suddenly appeared in front of Shen Lian, 'bell', the two knives collided, Liang Gu felt a shock, and looked at the person who flashed out of Shen Lian's side in surprise.

"What? Are you afraid of the second master? Shen Lian said with a smile, Yu Shi was left in Zhenjiang by Lin Yuan, and it seems that his skills are really good.

"Teach." Yu Shi drew his knife and went up, Liang Gu was shocked, Yu Shi was extremely powerful, and it was a rare standard horizontal knife in the Great Zhou Army. The sword technique can't be compared, even the weapon is a cut off, and the two of them didn't have a few moves, and Liang Gu was kicked away by Yu Shiyi. Before he could get up, he was crushed to the ground by the officials on the side.

Liang Gu struggled a few times, Yu Shi put the knife across Liang Gu's neck, and said coldly: "Take it down." ”

"Good knife technique." Shen Lian praised.

"Your Excellency has won the prize." Yu Shigong stepped aside.

Only then did Shen Lian instruct Ling Yundao: "Order all the men and horses, block the city gate, only allow entry and not exit, and monitor every move of Sanmutang before the return of the Jingguo Gong." ”

"Yes, sir." Ling Yun took the order and retreated, today he opened his eyes, he thought that Shen Lian would just clean up Liang Gu, who would have thought that he would go to the Xue family.

What happened in Yangzhou naturally can't be hidden from Xue Li, but he can't do anything but watch now, and he is afraid that if he sends a letter out, he won't be able to leave Zhenjiang Mansion.

The subordinates in the mansion are also terrified these days, not to mention the outside, even the inside of the mansion are facing the situation of being beaten and killed by Xue Li who is suddenly angry at any time. Today's Mikido is quieter. Xue Li looked at Shen Shitao, who was sitting opposite, and said, "Mr. Shen, let's go, you have been in the mansion for a short time, and Shen Lian and they may not be able to hold you back." ”

Shen Shitao smiled: "Since the day you saved me, I have no intention of leaving the Xue family. ”

Xue Li glanced at Shen Shitao and didn't say anything. Seeing this, Shen Shitao thought for a while and said, "Has it really come to this point?" The Xue family didn't react at all. ”

"The Dai family was uprooted overnight, and the incident of breaking the embankment was discovered, and the crimes committed by the Dai family more than ten years ago were all clearly investigated, and this Yasukuni Duke did not give me a chance to reflexively at all." Xue Li smiled bitterly.

"In the final analysis, it's still greedy, his Dai family is too greedy, my Xue family is also greedy, all the families in the world are greedy, whether it's money or power, or even the high throne, but we all forget, without that strength, this is the bane." Xue Li said quietly.

Shen Shitao listened to Xue Li quietly like this, without interjecting, if Xue Li had seen it clearly like this, why did he fall to this point, but all this could not be done by him, and his identity could not allow him to refuse.

After glancing at the sky, seeing that Liang Gu had not yet come, Xue Li said with a smile: "It seems that Zhenjiang has made a move here, and that fool from Liang Gu doesn't know what is going on now, and now he regrets that he didn't give him a knife at that time and put an end to a disaster." ”

Shen Shitao felt a chill in his heart, glanced at Xue Li, and asked, "Did you do it?" ”

"As soon as tonight, as late as tomorrow night, our Yasukuni Duke is not willing to drag it out too long." Xue Li thought for a while and said, "You tell me to go down, let the house prepare a table and a banquet, and you accompany me and others tonight." ”

"Waiting for whom?"

"Yasukuni Gong." Xue Li said lightly.
