Of course, after a few years when the society settles down, Li Shimin will react, and gradually relax the punishment at the same time, but also deal with the death penalty very carefully, and then the situation gradually gets better, and the total number of death row prisoners in the country does not exceed 100 in a year.

Of course, this is said later, and now, Sun Xiangfu feels that among the more than 200 people, at least more than eighty percent do not need to betray the death penalty, similar to this situation of this young man named Guo Kui abounds, is there really any difficulty, people in this era will not deliberately break the law, and even, there are some legal blindness, and they inadvertently commit capital crimes.

For example, a farmer named Liu Dashan, because his family's house was leaking, wanted to find some bricks and stones to fill it, and accidentally picked up the imperial tomb of Emperor Shizuyuan, this is the mausoleum of Li Shimin's grandfather, did the magistrate dare to give a light sentence after discovering it? And Li Shimin saw that the local officials played a compromise and the people secretly dug up the imperial tomb, so he was naturally annoyed, and the imperial approval was hooked.

For this kind of story of committing a variety of capital crimes, Sun Xiangfu felt ridiculous when he heard it, the imperial tomb is so big, how can a small common person know the whole picture of it, seeing that there are piles of bricks in the corner field, it is normal to pick up a few pieces and go back, for a few bricks, sentence a person to death, is it really good?

If you have a story to listen to, you won't be so bored when you hurry, but if you listen to more stories, it will be easy to feel pity, Sun Xiangfu is a later generation with a very positive outlook, if he does something that can't be saved, he will feel guilty for a long time, so thinking about how to let these people live is what Sun Xiangfu wants to do when he is bored.

There is a plan for how many miles the Chinese army will walk every day, so there is a minimum number of miles to travel in the death row camp every day. Sun Xiangfu is not the commander of the death row camp, he is just a somewhat special prisoner, a team of fifty horsemen is responsible for managing the death row camp, but these fifty people are a little inadequate in front of Sun Xiangfu's hundred guards, so as long as it is not such a thing as choosing a site in Xiazhai, they generally will not come over to touch the mold.

It was only at nightfall that the group began to stop and rest in an open area, and the large army was not usually camped in the woods, and if the cavalry lost their mobility and were ambushed, the consequences were very serious.

"Get some dry firewood to burn the fire, melt the snow around, and tomorrow the Chinese army will camp here." The overseer's cavalry school pointed to an open tunnel with a horsewhip.

In addition to the journey, the death row camp also needs to do some simple preparations for camping, such as melting snow and clearing the open space, as for the rest of the work, it is up to the people to solve it, and the soldiers do not need to do anything else except take care of their horses, their bows and arrows, knives and guns.

Because of the shackles, Sun Xiangfu was still unable to work, and after sitting on the snow plow for a long time, he felt that he should be active.

"Old Tang, have you been to Shuofang?" found Tang Fengyi, who was doing the work of melting snow, Sun Xiangfu stopped and asked.

Tang Fengyi, who was working, shook his head, but after thinking about it, he said, "Although the old man has never been to Shuofang, he has also been in the center for a few years during the Daye years, so he knows a little about Shuofang, what do you want to know?" ”

"The more I know about the environment, the more ways I can keep everyone alive." Sun Xiangfu pursed his lips and said, since he has not been there, then what he knows is hearsay, in this case, he can only believe half of his words at most.

Hearing Sun Xiangfu say this, Tang Fengyi came to the end, and thought about it for a while before saying, "The land of Shuofang is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the northwest is adjacent to the grassland, and the distance from the territory of the Hui and Xue Yantuo departments is less than five hundred miles in a straight line, so it has close contacts with the Hu people outside the Guanwai······

The land of Shuozhou is the first line of the fight against the Turks since the Qin and Han dynasties, and the city of Mayi, where it is governed, was built by the Qin general Meng Tian, which is a fortified city, and it is precisely because of the adjacent grasslands that the Liang division has the support of the Turks, and the strategic depth is very large.

However, now the situation is different, Jieli was disabled, Tuli fought with him for the right to rule, and the center of gravity shifted westward, but here, it became the meat of the mouth of the Hui and Xue Yantuo departments, and it is difficult to say whether Liang Shi will be killed by his younger brother as in history.

Even if it is easily recovered as in history, it may not be peaceful because of the proximity to the Hui and Xue Yantuo departments, because the early defeat of Jieli has allowed these two departments to grow and develop.

They also benefited from the westward shift of the Turkic center of gravity, and their forces extended hundreds of miles to the northern grasslands of Youzhou without scruples, which put great pressure on the entire Youzhou front line of the Tang Dynasty, which is why Li Shimin knew that the interests of running the south were great, but he couldn't take care of it for the time being.

Through Tang Fengyi's narration, Sun Xiangfu knew some of the situation in Shuozhou, which is roughly a mixed area with an equal proportion of Hu and Han people, due to the weather environment and geographical factors, there are not many people who farm here, and there are many people who live by grazing, and in previous years, the frequency of robbery by the Turkic and steppe departments here is very high, so the people are very poor, and poverty is easy to be instigated, so people like Liang Shidu who do not have any eloquence are also easy to pull them to rebel.

"It's complicated!" After listening to Tang Fengyi's explanation for a long time, Sun Xiangfu sighed and said.

These death row prisoners are different from themselves, they have to go through three battles without dying, in order to avoid death, if they want to go through three battles, they must have three battles first, and the Liang division can only be regarded as one, so the Hui Department and Xue Yantuo Department have become Sun Xiangfu's imaginary enemies, but unfortunately, he is not good at politics and military.

Worried, I stayed up until the early morning of the next day, and the members of the death row camp started to travel again under the drive of the overseers, Taiyuan City was close at hand, and Sun Xiangfu didn't think about saving these death row prisoners for the time being.

There was no accident at all, Sun Xiangfu and the others had just stopped outside the city, and someone came out of the city to look for him.

Wang Xu, a young man who is not yet twenty years old, has well-proportioned facial features, white skin, and is wearing a fiery red mink.

"You are Sun Zhengming?"

"Well, yes." Sun Xiangfu, like Wang Xu on horseback, was squinting at each other, and just hummed softly when he heard the words.

"I heard that my eldest brother and second brother have suffered losses at your hands, very good, if you can serve this son, the shackles around your neck, this son can help you take them off, and help you get out of this death row camp."

"Oh, that's all! I can do it myself! Sun Xiangfu said noncommittally on his face, but he was quickly thinking in his heart about how to seize this hard-won opportunity to talk.

"Hehe, it's really interesting, so why don't you do it?" Wang Xu was not only not angry when he heard this, but looked at Sun Xiangfu with interest.

"I'm doing it! Presumably, there is a process for Wang Gongzi to do things! Sun Xiangfu shrugged his shoulders and said.

"That's right, how can a person who dares to argue with my eldest brother and defeat my second brother for a while can't even do this. Ben Gongzi came to see you today, not because he had any deep hatred with you, but because someone wanted to deal with you, but he wanted to make Ben Gongzi responsible, this kind of conspiracy made Ben Gongzi very uncomfortable, and Ben Gongzi wanted to teach him some lessons. Wang Xu seemed to be very unhappy.

"It's also uncomfortable to be here, so is Wang Gongzi going to have a drink and talk about it?" Sun Xiangfu did not see the haze like Wang Lin in Wang Xu's eyes, but instead saw a bit of the momentum of a ranger's pleasure and revenge, which gave Sun Xiangfu the opportunity to have a deep chat with him, if you want to use others, you must first create an opportunity to use him, and it is difficult for two people who can't fight each other to use each other.

"That's what I mean, come here, and build a banquet in the city gate tower." Wang Xu said that, then turned around and returned to the city.

And a quarter of an hour later, when his figure appeared on the city gate, it was actually already lined with wine and food.

"The Taiyuan Wang clan really lives up to its reputation." Sun Xiangfu, who walked into the city gate tower accompanied by Xi Junmai and Zhao Qiang, took a look at the layout in the city gate tower and said with some surprise.

In a quarter of an hour, the case and wine and food were moved to the city gate, and even the carpet was laid on the ground, and the stove for warming wine was built, which required at least dozens of people to respond to his request as soon as possible.

"It's just a small matter, Brother Zhengming, please sit down."

The etiquette of the family is still not picky, since Sun Xiangfu has expressed the intention of talking to Wang Xu, Wang Xu naturally entertains him with the etiquette of entertaining guests.

"Hehe, thank you for Wang Gongzi's hospitality, then you will get straight to the point in the next, and you need the head of Liang Shidu in the next place, can Wang Gongzi do it?" Sun Xiangfu sat down with a smile.

"Liang Shidu's head? Brother Zhengming's tone is very big! Then I don't know what conditions Brother Zhengming has to exchange with this son! Hearing this, even an invincible son like Wang Xu had a somewhat surprised expression, but he regained his composure after a while and stared at Sun Xiangfu's eyes.

"At most, within two years, Wang Lin and Wang Hao will no longer have the ability to compete with you for the position of the head of the Wang family."

Sun Xiangfu bit the words 'within two years at most' very hard, and as soon as these words came out, Wang Xu's eyes suddenly became solemn.

"Brother Zhengming, please drink." Wang Xu thought for a moment, but did not answer, and picked up the hot wine on the table.

Sun Xiangfu didn't postpone it, he raised a glass and had a drink with Wang Xu, he knew that Wang Xu was moved, but he didn't believe that Sun Xiangfu had such an ability, so he had to work harder.

"Wang Gongzi should know about the blocking of the road on the official road outside the city!" Putting down the wine glass, Sun Xiangfu looked at Wang Xu and asked.

Hearing this, Wang Xu nodded and said, "I know." ”

"Does the prince know who did it?" Sun Xiangfu continued to ask.

"I don't know." Wang Xu shook his head and replied.

"It's your eldest brother Wang Lin." Sun Xiangfu smiled and helped him answer.

"How so?"
