"Your Majesty, now in Jizhou, many of our army's secret sons have been arrested, and it is difficult to use them anymore." The voices of the leaders of Liyang, Yamen, and Jizhou Secret Guards were extremely indifferent, as if the losses of those secret guards had nothing to do with him.

"It's okay, you've done a good job." Liu Xie waved his hand and smiled.

"It's just a Bohai Sea, which is far from hurting Yuan Shao's vitality, and other cities are difficult to capture directly like Bohai." The Dark Guard commanded.

"Jizhou is now in a depression, and the people's hearts will be chaotic!" Liu Xie sneered: "Yuan Shao is digging his own grave, and I will add another fire to Yuan Shao." ”

The Dark Guard Commander didn't speak, just stood silently and stood by for help.

Liu Xie thought for a moment and said: "Some key people in Jizhou should have arrangers around them, right?" ”

The Commander of the Dark Guard nodded and said, "Except for Yuan Shao, Fu Zhu and a few people, including Yuan Shao's four sons, there are people arranged, and they can do it at any time as long as His Majesty gives an order." ”

"Others don't have to pay attention." Liu Xie fumbled his fingers and sneered: "I want to mess with his mind first, Yuan Shao's four sons, kill all those who can be killed!" ”

"Whoa!" The Dark Guard saluted and turned to leave.

Two days later, in Yecheng, a terrifying assassination operation was launched in Yecheng.

Yuan Shao's youngest son, Yuan Mai, was cut off in his sleep, and the third son, Yuan Shang, was suddenly assassinated on the way home, and had already repelled the assassin, but what was terrifying was that a guard beside Yuan Shang suddenly shot through Yuan Shang's heart with a crossbow arrow after everyone repelled the assassin and relaxed his mind, although the guard was immediately killed by the other guards, Yuan Shang was killed on the spot.

Yuan Xi was ordered to lead troops in the barracks, although he was also assassinated, but because he was in the army, the officers and soldiers in the army found out in time and saved his life.

As for the eldest son Yuan Tan, he was shot with crossbow arrows by several Yuan family Zhuang Ding who suddenly broke out in Yuan Shao's mansion, and he went through a lot of hardships before he escaped the blockade of the imperial court and returned to Jizhou, but he was shot in his own yard.

In one day, Yuan Shao's four sons, in the end, only Yuan Shao's second son, Yuan Xi, who was least valued by Yuan Shao, survived.

In Yuan's mansion, Yuan Shao sat in his place sluggishly, and in one day, he lost three beloved sons, which was definitely the biggest blow in Yuan Shao's life.

Under Yuan Shao's seat, Guo Tu, Xianping, Feng Ji, Xin Ping, Xin Bi, as well as Zhao Zhao, Murong Ping, and all the civil and military forces were silent, although Yuan Shao was not as angry as before at this time, everyone knew that Yuan Shao at this moment was more terrifying than ever.

"Who can tell Lonely, why?" I don't know how long it took, Yuan Shao's eyes slowly fell on everyone, his voice was hoarse, like a hellish ghost, and the whole person seemed to be full of anger at this moment, and the bloodshot eyes made everyone shudder.

"Princess, it was the imperial court that arranged a detailed work in my city, so ......" Feng Ji said stiffly.

"Finesse!?" Yuan Shao was a little more angry when he heard this, looked at these people with a smile, and suddenly laughed and said: "Then Yuan Fu has been in the Yuan family for more than forty years, but Xiansi has grown up watching him, and he is also meticulous?" ”

The murderer who killed Yuan Mai is still unknown, but Yuan Fuke, one of the murderers of Yuan Tan and the main mastermind, is the old man of the Yuan family, and the three generations of the family are servants of the Yuan family, and he is the one who grew up with Yuan Shao.

In addition to being heartbroken, Yuan Shao also had a thought in his heart, how many such people are there by his side?

A pair of eyes looked at the people around him, and everyone became very suspicious in his eyes.

"Check it out! In Yecheng, how many such people are there! Lone wants to find them all out one by one! Yuan Shao looked at everyone and roared like a ghost.

"My lord! River Rush! A lieutenant rushed in and walked towards Yuan Shao.

"Qiang~" Yuan Shao suddenly drew his sword and stared at the lieutenant.

"Uh......" The captain looked at Yuan Shao in amazement, frozen in place, not daring to move.

"Lord ......" looked at Yuan Shao worriedly, Yuan Shao's state at this time was very wrong, turned his head to look at the captain and said, "What is the matter?" ”

"Yes...... It was Mr. Frustration who sent an urgent report, asking the lord to take a look. The lieutenant trembled and raised the envelope in his hand and bowed.

The judge looked at Yuan Shao, sighed, took the envelope, tore open the envelope, and shook the letterhead inside.

"Lord, it's a good letter from the father." The judge turned his head to look at Yuan Shao and bowed.

Yuan Shao slowly put away his sword, but the captain was already sweating profusely with fright, and he didn't dare to stay longer, so he confessed and left in a hurry.

"What?" Yuan Shao stretched out his hand to take the letter.

"Gonghe thinks that the traders are related to the livelihood of the people in Jizhou, and this time the court is too anxious, so that our army is defenseless, this method can no longer be used, and now I know the other party's means, but there is no need to work so hard to harm the people's livelihood." Judge and bow.

Guo Tu sneered: "This is wrong, even if it is as the prince said, but this time the lord will send a large number of traders to prison, these people will inevitably resent the lord, if it is okay on weekdays, you can slowly restore the hearts of the people, but now that the war with the imperial court is imminent, if these people are released, these people are resentful, and they are hindered by our army everywhere, what should we do?" If someone with a heart provokes one or two, it will only lead to greater disasters. ”

"This ......" also hesitated when he heard the words, what Guo Tu said, it is not unreasonable, at this time, everyone will be released, but it will make the already unstable people's hearts worse, one wrong step, one wrong step, now Guo Tu's statement is a little extreme, but it can only be wrong.

"Lord!" Guo Tu took a step forward and said: "This seizure of the traders, the family property of these traders has been confiscated, if they are acquitted, will these family assets be returned or not?" If it is returned, on the way to seizure, there is a lot of loss, and more soldiers secretly reach out and return all of them, which will only damage the treasury, and now our army is about to start a war, it is the time to use money and food, such a loss, our army can not afford to lose, but if it is not returned, let these people go, it will only make them more resentful of the lord, as long as there is a chance, there will be chaos, according to the ministers only to see, rather than so, it is better to ......"

Guo Tu didn't continue, but the meaning was already obvious, if you don't do it, you don't stop, instead of worrying about the aftermath, it is better to kill all these people, not only to avoid trouble, but also to add a large amount of wealth to the treasury, used to fight against the imperial court, although in the long run, the people's hearts and people's livelihood will inevitably be damaged, but the current priority is to face the court's aggressiveness, but it is beneficial and harmless.

"Gongzhi, you ......" The judge looked at Guo Tu with a shocked face, this order, if it really goes down, then Jizhou will be simply ruined!

Seeing that Yuan Shao actually appeared to be moved, the judge hurriedly said: "Lord, no, if this is the case, it will make the people feel cold, everyone is in danger, don't wait for the court to attack, I Jizhou will be chaotic first!" ”

"This ......" Yuan Shao couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and he hesitated a little.

"Lord, those who have achieved great things, do not be informal!" Guo Tu took a step forward and said: "Moreover, among these people, there is also the imperial court, and the lord must not forget the death of the three sons." ”

When Yuan Shao heard this, his face showed a ruthless color, his three sons died because of these people, and they must not be released.

"Lord!" Seeing this, the judge hurriedly said: "Even if you want to kill, the lord only needs to kill some big traders, those peddlers and pawns are closely related to the people's livelihood, if they are all killed, it will shake the people's hearts, which is not conducive to our army, and these peddlers and pawns have lost not much property, and those confiscated property only half of it is enough to return it, which can show the bearing of the lord and stabilize the people's hearts." ”

"What Zhengnan said is bad, in my opinion, the imperial court is meticulous, and most of them lurk among the peddlers and pawns, but those big traders, because the family business is here, they dare not be enemies with the lord, the lord, according to the minister, these hawkers should be killed, and these people are insignificant, even if they are killed, it is not enough to shake the foundation of Jizhou, but those big dealers, the influence is greater, if you want to release, you should also release these people." Guo Tu bowed and said.

When Yuan Shao heard this, he thought that those imperial court works were hidden among the thousands of peddlers and pawns, and he had great hatred in his heart, so he nodded and said: "What the public rule says is good, implement it immediately!" ”

Hearing this, the judge closed his eyes weakly, this order continues, that is, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people will become unjust ghosts, just because a few traders have to kill so many people, and the people's hearts are not chaotic before there are ghosts.
