The four gates of Huai'an City are wide open, the flag on the city tower is shaking, and the city is greeted by thousands of people.
Hou Xuanyan finally led the troops to evacuate the valley full of the smell of corpses, and when he came to the outskirts of the city, he saw ribbons all over the sky and drums and loud music, and suddenly there was a feeling that Huai'an City was like a delicate little lady, and then welcomed the new aunt into the boudoir.
Hou Xuanyan clamped the horse's belly, the jujube red horse stepped forward steadily, the injury suffered before the Qingliu Pass had healed, but the horse's recovery ability was not comparable to what people could imagine.
Zhu Dadian was in front of the city gate, with a smile on his face that could not be hidden, his hands clenched into fists, and he bent his waist, and said loudly: "Congratulations to Guogong for his great achievements, sweeping the Central Plains in the coming day, driving out the Tartars, and covering the universe is just around the corner." ”
The spring breeze was proud, Hou Xuanyan looked up to the sky and laughed, held the reins of the horse and said: "It is not my wish to cover the universe, but I hope to be able to kill all the Tartars with your own efforts and restore the Han family Taoism together." ”
When I came to Huai'an City, I was surprised to see Hong Yixun, who had been absent for a long time, in the Huai'an Bureau. Hou Xuanyan exclaimed: "Why are you here?" ”
The two pretty spies behind Hong Yixun looked like women dressed as men, and they were the two thieves in Suzhou City. He smiled and said: "Big brother, I listened to your words to find out the enemy salt merchants in Yangzhou, and I killed them after checking them. ”
Hou Xuanyan smiled dumbly: "You still pretend to be a Taoist priest?" Immediately, my heart warmed, this is a good brother who is righteous and dry, and it is light to say that he is mixed into Huai'an, but the danger is only greater than the battlefield fight. No wonder the information reported by the Hidden Elephant Battalion is so detailed, it turned out to be their head, which penetrated into the enemy's interior.
Hou Xuanyan patted him on the shoulder and pulled him into the yamen, after fighting in the south and the north for so long, the government office in Huai'an can be regarded as the most exquisite and elegant. This was originally the office of the governor of the Ming Dynasty, and was later requisitioned by Wakda, and the flowers, birds and trees in it resemble a courtyard.
Hou Xuan went to the public hall, and the generals were on both sides, murderous. The war has just subsided, and the generals who have been fighting for a day and a night have a bloody breath on everyone. The time has come to ask for rewards for meritorious service, Hou Xuanyan has never been stingy at this point, and his soldiers also know this. This great victory over the Qing soldiers, beheading 10,000 soldiers of the Eight Banners, 70,000 of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, and capturing two important places, it is inevitable that it will be promoted to make a fortune.
At this moment, the pro-soldiers outside came in, hugged their fists and said: "Dashuai, Huai'an Cheng Quang, Huang Tingchou, and Ma Xilu ask to see you." ”
Hong Yixun stood beside him and said in his ear: "These three are the largest salt merchants in Huai'an, and they have greatly funded the Qing soldiers, if it weren't for them, the military rations of the Manchu Qing would have been cut off long ago." ”
Hou Xuanyan sneered slightly and said, "Let them in." ”
Cheng Liangjin took his two companions and walked into the lobby bending down, not flustered in his heart. He had the wealth of the country, and even the Manchus chose to cooperate in the face of his wealth. Hou Xuanyan is not a saint, not even a clean official, he has already inquired clearly, this guy is greedy for money and lustful, since this is the case, he can trap him.
Entering the lobby, Cheng Liangjin and the others naturally knew that the one sitting at the top must be Hou Xuanyan. The three of them lifted their robes and knelt down, and called the prince of the country together.
Hou Xuanyan said with a smile: "Cheng Liangjin, I was in the camp outside the city, and I once told your subordinates. If I enter Huai'an, and it is not the gate that you opened, I will kill your whole family. What else do you have to say today? ”
Cheng Liangjin never expected that Hou Xuanyan would speak so directly, and he would kill his whole family when he came up. Rao is he was full of wisdom, and at this time he was also shocked into a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "The Qing soldiers are brutal, and the villain is just a grass people, and he is trying to open the city to welcome the Guogong, but he didn't expect the soldiers under the command of the Guogong to be so majestic that they have already attacked the city." ”
Huang Tingshu, who was next to him, continued to talk and said: "We are all guilty of falling to the enemy, and we are willing to work together to sacrifice 10 million taels of silver to reward the soldiers of the Northern Expedition." ”
They know that the generals in the hall are equivalent to Hou Xuanyan's generals, and they are all his hardcore henchmen. When the matter comes, I can't care about not passing on the six ears, and I will bribe the first minister in the world in the court.
Hou Xuanyan stood up and sighed in his heart, he was really fucking rich. 10 million taels, to be honest, is already half a year's treasury revenue when the Ming Dynasty was strong. What is a rich country, this is a rich country. At the beginning, in the camp, he said that it was still five million taels, but now that he has entered the city, it has doubled at once. These people also know their past reputation, which is really bleeding.
He walked into the hall and said in a deep voice to the three people on the ground, "Raise your head, your own public has something to ask." ”
The three of them slowly raised their heads, and Hou Xuanyan secretly praised Cheng Liangjin, who was indeed a handsome and beautiful man.
"Let me ask you, is this 10 million taels all your family assets?"
The three of them didn't know why, and they couldn't answer in a trembling voice.
Hou Xuanyan continued: "I guess it's definitely not, you monopolize the two Huai salt transportation and Cao Yun, and make money every day, it was the Ming Dynasty who gave you this boundless wealth. But you used it to finance the enemy, and the Manchus took your military salaries and ate the rations you offered, and used them as a prestige in our land, and burned and plundered them. Today, you still dare to come to my lobby and openly bribe me, it seems that you are sure that I Hou Xuanyan is greedy for money? ”
Cheng Huang and the three trembled, kowtowing like pounding garlic, the richer the more people regret their lives. In the past, they relied on the thousands of family properties in their hands, and they thought they were superior, and they played with everyone in the palm of their hands. Countless slaves served their daily lives, and how many women who were all over the country and the city were for their enjoyment, and now in the face of the extremely powerful Hou Xuanyan, the strength of their appearance was finally peeled away, revealing the ruins wrapped in gold and jade on the outside and inside.
Hou Xuanyan ignored their pleas for mercy and said coldly: "Do you think that 10 million taels can buy me and continue to protect you as a prestige, and the crimes of the past enemies can be written off?" Hey, you don't want to think about it, if I cut you with a knife, all your family property can be confiscated, why should I take your bribe? ”
Cheng Liangjin raised his head and begged: "Guogong spare my life, I have seven daughters, six of whom are unmarried, and I am willing to give them to Guogong as slaves and maids." ”
Hou Xuanyan kicked him aside, and said righteously: "Bastard! I, Hou Xuan, play a good man who stands up to the sky, and you are greedy for money and lustful? How could I spare you, a collaborating dog traitor, for the sake of a few women? ”
"Hong Yiyun!" Hou Xuanyan shouted loudly.
"The subordinates are here." Hong Yiqing screamed and bowed down to obey the order.
"Take the submarine camp and work." The business of the latent elephant camp is familiar, and as long as Hou Xuanyan says a word to work, Hong Yixun already understands it.
Before leaving, Hou Xuanyan grabbed him and said in a low voice: "This amount is extremely handsome, how can six thousand gold be bad." ”
Hong Yi had a black line on his brain, and he felt quite uncomfortable in his heart, but he still frowned and said, "Big brother, I understand." ”
