Xu Xian took the people back to the yamen of Zhixian County, and the follow-up people from various families also followed.

Outside the Zhixian Yamen, the two or three hundred captives in Qingyang Village who were captured were already kneeling on the ground, all of whom were wearing shackles or tied with ropes, and these people were also waiting for Xu Xian's final judgment.

Zhu Xing and the others were waiting outside, while Xu Xian led people into the back hall first.

After entering the city, Huang Chong also informed Yu Xu Xian of the results of the investigation outside the city: "...... My lord, now it has been traced, the second family in Qingyang Village is called Zhu Niangzi, no one knows what her specific name is, and it is said that she helped Qingyang Village take care of business in the provincial capital, after the war began, she took a group of people and escorted a group of people in the thief village to escape, the number is about 100 to 200 people, because the adults did not send people to pursue, and now people are afraid that they have gone south along the mountain road, and it is not easy to chase if they want to......"

When Huang Chong said this, each of Xu Xian's men had a solemn face.

This also means that Qingyangzhai has not been completely eradicated, but still leaves hidden dangers.

"This is also the reason why I left the thief head of Qingyang Village in the first place, if he can be co-opted, it is equivalent to recruiting those people, if he refuses to comply, then he will not be able to tolerate this person, and it is also to prevent the remnants of the thieves from taking the opportunity to use the thief leader to make a comeback!" Xu Xian said.

"My lord, this is exactly what we want to say, if this person refuses to submit, then it is better to kill the surname Song!" He Yu said.

Xu Xian nodded slightly, and didn't say anything more.

When Xu Xian walked out of the back hall with people to the public court, Zhu Xing and Li Wan were the first to greet them.

"Lord Xu, congratulations on exterminating two cottages in a row! These two cottages are both cottages that have been harmed by the local people in Yanshan County for many years, and you have solved a big trouble for the local people in Yanshan County! ”

Li Wan was still disdainful of Xu Xian before, but when he came out to speak at this time, his face was full of compliments and stammering, and his complexion did not seem to be disguised, he simply regarded Xu Xian as the Great Master of Qingtian.

This change made Zhu Xing also feel that Li Wan was very hypocritical.

But Zhu Xing didn't say anything, Zhu Xing stepped forward, just bowed slightly, and didn't say anything more.

Xu Xian smiled and said: "As a local magistrate, the purpose of this official is to ensure the safety of one party, and now that two cottages have been leveled one after another, the next step is to solve some small cottages in the south of the city, and you officials and gentry will not make trouble for this official again, right?" ”

"How so? Haha, how could it be? Originally, we were supporting Xu Zhi County to comprehensively suppress bandits...... Whoever dares to make trouble for you in Xu Zhixian County is to embarrass the local people in Yanshan County, and we will not let them go......" Li Wan had a happy smile on his face, as if he supported Xu Xian's work more, and finally he looked at Zhu Xing and said, "Zhu Dangjia, what you said here is right, right?" ”

"Hmm!" Zhu Xing nodded with a dark face.

Xu Xian glanced at Bai Qiyuan in the distance, Bai Qiyuan was probably still worried about Xu Xian's victory at this time, and Bai Qiyuan didn't even dare to look at Xu Xian, as if he was afraid that Xu Xian would find trouble with him.

"That's so!" Xu Xian said, "This official is now going to be promoted to interrogate the thieves in Qingyang Village, and the leaders of the thieves will be escorted to the court!" ”

After speaking, Xu Xian turned around and walked in the direction of the public table, and when he arrived at the table, he sat down directly, and looked at the people present coldly.

Zhu Xing, Li Wan and others could only get out of the way first and leave the court to Xu Xian.

Immediately, Song Henghuan and others were escorted to the court, only Song Henghuan was escorted to the front, someone pressed him and wanted him to kneel, but he didn't kneel, but he was kicked on the crook of the leg, and Song Henghuan knelt down.

Xu Xian said: "Lord Songzhai, this official still respects you as a man, now I will give you a choice, do you take refuge in the imperial court and abandon the darkness and turn to the light, or continue to be stubborn?" ”

"The old man will never be a surrenderer!" Song Henghuan gritted his teeth and said.

Xu Xian patted the shocked wood and said: "The criminal minister Song Henghuan, this official has checked your file and learned that you have been a robber for many years, although you have not committed adultery, but you also connived at your subordinates to kill the robbed people, and even fought with the official army twice, and you have a lot of blood debts on your hands, this official gives you a chance, you don't want it, and now this official will also judge you according to the law, come and pull out the culprit and cut off your head!" ”

"Humph!" Song Henghuan was not afraid of Xu Xian's majesty at all, and after Xu Xian said that he would kill him, he still looked very arrogant.

But in the end, Song Henghuan was dragged out.

After the others were dragged out, the remaining thieves above the helmsman in the cottage were also dragged out of the main hall.

Li Wan took a breath and said, "Lord Xu, you just do it...... These people were killed? ”

"Otherwise?" Xu Xian said, "This official doesn't want to leave any troubles, it's best to kill people and rest assured!" ”

Li Wan smiled bitterly: "Doesn't Lord Xu want to know who has colluded with the people of Qingyang Village?" If Lord Xu continues to interrogate, it should be fruitful! ”

"What the traitor said is not convincing, so don't listen to it!" Xu Xian stood up and said sharply, "The remaining thieves, the official will deal with them one by one, the people of your families will go back first, the official is going to hold a celebration banquet today, if you don't come at that time...... The official won't say much, you can do it yourself! ”

After speaking, Xu Xian didn't seem to pay attention to the people present at all, and went straight to the inner hall.

"This ......"

Zhu Xingben still had a lot to say to Xu Xian, and even tried to test Xu Xian's next move, but now Xu Xian didn't seem to give them a chance to talk at all.

Just when Zhu Xing wanted to chase the first two steps, he was stopped by Huang Chong, Huang Chong said: "What, Zhu Dangjia still wants to make trouble for my family?" ”

"No, no, no!" Li Wan came over to help speak, and stopped in front of Zhu Xing, as if he knew a lot, Li Wan said, "Zhu Dangjia just wants to congratulate Master Xu, since there is a celebration banquet in the evening, then if you have anything else, let's wait for the celebration banquet!" ”

Zhu Xing sighed lightly, and finally had to leave with someone.

When Zhu Xing left the Yamen of Zhixian County, Song Henghuan was also beheaded on the spot.

"This surname is not simple!" Zhu Xing sighed, "Conquering the city and killing decisively, it seems that the bandits in Yanshan County are not in his eyes at all." ”

Li Wan said: "No, we will rely on him more to help in the future...... I knew that going against him wasn't asking for trouble? ”

When Li Wan finished saying this, the patriarchs of many families next to him were glaring at Li Wan, and they all seemed to feel that Li Wan's face was turning too fast.

"What do you think of me?" Li Wan himself was still a little unhappy, and said, "I did this for you, and I don't want to think about it, if I don't cooperate with Xu Zhixian now, we will have a good life in the future?" ”
