"Where is this old thief's home? Do you have family? Kindred? Friends? Lian Zining's gloomy tone made Lord Liu tremble, and his body trembled violently.

Li Tiedao: "Originally from Qileniwei, now living in Maqiao Town, there is a mansion in the family, 3,000 acres of fertile land, and 16 slaves. There is one wife in the family, one concubine, three sons, two daughters, five male grandchildren, and one female grandchild. During his family period, he lived in the Chereni Guard, and his four fathers, three mothers, and two wives lasted for a hundred years, with a total of 347 people. ”

"What's the biggest? How small is the smallest? ”

"The oldest person is already old this year, and the youngest person is full moon." Li Tie paused slightly, and Fang Zi said those four words.

As early as after Lian Zining came back from the capital, they received Lian Zining's order, and they had been investigating secretly for a long time.

"Well, you're doing a great job!"

Lian Zining nodded lightly, looking at the kneeling people, his eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one.

His emotions have calmed down, and his eyes are also calm and cold, but this calmness is like the eve of a volcano that is about to erupt, which is even more terrifying, these people dare not look at Lian Zining, and they all lowered their heads.

Lian Zining raised his head and glanced at the door: "Is Hong Chaojiao here?" ”

Li Tie said in a low voice: "Someone has already been invited." ”

Before the words fell, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and then Hong Chaojiao and his party came over surrounded by a group of black and white impermanence, they were disheveled. Some of the hair was still loose, apparently just screaming.

Torches burned in the garden. The lights here were bright, and Hong Chaojiao and the others could see the faces of the kneeling people on the ground at a glance. Suddenly, their faces changed.

The group of people who can follow Lian Zining out can be regarded as the leading figures among the civil officials, and naturally they have heard a little rumor, and now that they look at it, they know that these people have committed something.

"Coming?" Lian Zining said lightly.

"Yes!" Hong Chaoya was reluctant to speak at this time, but as a civil leader, he could only ask, "My lord, how many of them are?" ”

"Corruption!" Lian Zining said two words very succinctly: "I called you over this time." It is also to let you know that this official is not killing innocents indiscriminately, these people do have a way to die. ”

He raised his chin: "Li Tie, say that you are clear with them." ”

"Yes, sir!" Li Tie answered yes, and then explained the crimes of these people one by one in a very gentle tone.

He has an excellent memory, and he has put in a lot of effort. One by one, one pile at a time, slowly spit out. It really made Hong Chaojiao and a few people dumbfounded.

"Corruption of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver?" Hong Chaojiao couldn't believe it: "Lord Li, is the evidence conclusive?" You can't talk nonsense about that. ”

He is such a fairly incorruptible official, and although he is now a member of the Senate, he still lives in his own small courtyard. There is only one wife and one concubine in the family, and it was offered by the local wealthy family when they were in Mangita City. He is the typical career-oriented official with a strong desire for power. Have the courage to do things, and also want to do things. If you dare to do things, you don't pay so much attention to money. Therefore, it is impossible to understand the thinking of these corrupt officials.

Li Tie also admired him a lot, and said: "Lord Hong, the evidence is conclusive, and there is no wrong. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and some black and white impermanence took out a large stack of ledgers from the carriage and threw them on the ground.

Hong Chaojiao also knew that Li Tie did not dare to act lightly on such a major matter, and the question just now was just almost instinctive.

Seeing this evidence, he sighed with a bleak face, stepped aside and stopped talking.

"I have never been a magnanimous man, my enemy, and must die. If you want to kill me, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots is also a matter of no choice. Lian Zining said lightly, his voice suddenly raised: "Li Tie, take the official's order to arrest people!" All the main culprits, three days later, Ling Chi was outside the south gate of Zhenyuan Mansion, and ordered the officials and people of hundreds of miles around to come and watch. The main offender is of the three tribes, and within the nine tribes, the men are sent to the bureaus and departments as slaves, and the women are sent to the sect divisions as slaves. All accomplices, their own heads, within the three tribes, men and women are slaves! ”

Lian Zining's words were as cold as ice.

Even Hong Chaojiao, the onlookers who were not involved, couldn't help but feel a cold shiver after hearing this, and Lian Zining's words were like knives and swords, piercing into their hearts fiercely. Many people secretly swore that in their lives, as long as they were still under the rule of Wu Yibo, they would never dare to have any acts of corruption. The three clans of Yi, the nine clans, God, Wu Yibo is not only ruthless to others, but also to himself, how many years has the dynasty not used such cruel means?

I have to say that Lian Zining called them here to deter and intimidate, which is still very effective. It may be that as their official positions become more and more powerful, their status becomes higher and higher, and they become farther and farther away from Lian Zining, this fear will gradually weaken, and they will eventually embark on a road of no return. But how many years will this process last? Five years in three years or eight years in ten years?

For Lian Zining, these days are enough.

It's a big deal, scare once in a while, isn't it?

And after hearing Lian Zining's ruling, the fat man actually burped and fainted directly. The rest of them were not much stronger, they were trembling one by one, and they were terrified to the extreme, although they had already thought of today, but when the butcher knife was on the end, they still felt that their bodies were cold for a while, and their hearts were full of fear and despair.

"Hong Chaojiao, this official has ordered you to be the main envoy, Li Tie, you are the deputy envoy, the two of you are holding the official warrant, go to Zhenyuan Mansion, and clean up immediately." Lian Zining flicked his teeth and showed a cruel smile: "It's not just that you're involved in this matter, Li Tie, bring in all the evidence you have been investigating for a long time!" Kill those who deserve to be killed, go to prison if they deserve to go to prison, and no one can be spared! ”

"Yes!" Hong Chaojiao and Li Tie responded in unison.

It's just that Hong Chaojiao is full of bitterness, while Li Tie is quite excited.

The more decent he is, the more he will be in MI6. Now under Lian Zining's connivance. MI6 has continued to grow and develop, and it has gradually become a sharp knife hanging over the heads of the civil and military officials under the Wu Yi Army.

Wu Yibo is making the Senate Senate Hong Chaojiao. Li Tie, deputy envoy and counselor of MI6, took Wu Yibo's warrant and began to take people around.

It's been a whole day!

The big towns around Zhenyuan Mansion have been sealed. Everywhere you can see the black and white impermanence of MI6 breaking into the mansion to take people, locking and arresting people in the streets, and it is said that the prison of Zhenyuan Mansion is already overcrowded. And

All the errands of the Senate were stopped, the government offices were sealed, the files and correspondence were taken away, and all the officials were ordered to wait at home. Some officials have clear hearts and are waiting to die at home, while others can't figure out what's going on, and they are sad and panicked. They stayed at home and did not dare to go out, so they asked their family members to wander around and inquire about gossip.

"Financial Secretary Wenhong, Highway Department Liu Su, Dali Temple Xu He Qing...... The five people were corrupt and heavy-handed, committed atrocities and harmed the people, and collided with adults, and they were already arrested and imprisoned. ”

"I heard that not only will I take it, but I will be outside the south gate in three days! Not only that. The lord also ordered all the soldiers and civilians within a hundred miles around to come and watch! ”

"The homes of the five adults are all surrounded by officers and soldiers, four fathers and three mothers. All the two wives were captured. Even the slaves in the house were arrested, crying all the way, that scene. You didn't see it! ”

"God, this isn't to punish the Nine Clans, right?"

"Who knows? Maybe it is! Tens of millions of blood stained on the hands of adults. It's not bad for these ones. ”

"I heard that the Leather Bureau is hanging himself at home?"

"Is that true? Isn't the leather bureau under the command of the logistics department? It's not a civil official, how can you get involved? ”

"Who says it's not true? It's not just a leather game. There is a Si Zheng family in the Mining Supervision Bureau who was also arrested, and the person in my family said that at that time, the whole deputy bureau was watching from the side, his face was blue and blue, but in front of those black and white impermanence, he didn't dare to say a word. Wang Zhenfu of the logistics department closed the door tightly, and no one could go if he didn't see outsiders! ”

After a day of anxious speculation, these officials finally got the letter in the evening. All the officials received the order, and the next morning, at the yamen of the Senate and the Political Yuan, all the officials of the logistics, civil affairs, justice, taxation, mining and construction departments were called by name and entered.

After getting the quasi-letter, some officials who are frank and open-minded can finally sleep well.

Early in the morning of the second day, everyone arrived at the yamen of the Senate early.

The yamen of the Senate is newly built, located in the south of Dongcheng, not far from the general's mansion, and it is convenient to report anything at any time, and the whole street is the yamen of various functions.

The yamen of the Senate is very magnificent, this is what Lian Zining meant, originally with Hong Chaojiao's idea, there are more than a dozen office staff in the Senate, there is no need to be so particular, but Lian Zining crossed him and directly gave an order to the construction department, the Senate is the gateway to the administrative system of Zhenyuan Mansion, but it can't be too shabby.

In front of the Senate and Political Yuan, the lobby is a flat big bluestone pavement, there are eighteen big red pillars erected in the hall, and behind it is a large painting wall of ten meters long, up to five meters of red sun rising to the sea and cranes flying.

Quietly in the lobby, Hong Chaojiao sat in front of the large painting wall of the red sun rising to sea and cranes flying, his face sinking like water, and his face was as stiff as wood. Li Tie wore the regular uniform of a third-grade military attaché, and the beast on his chest was full of fierce beasts, which was also an ordinary expression.

The two originally thought that this was just a major corruption case with a relatively bad impact, a relatively large scale, and a relatively large number of people involved, and they didn't take it too seriously, but they didn't expect that they would be so shocking after checking the various yamen functions! Even the city of the two of them is also frightened to watch.

"The officials of the Highway Department, headed by Lang Zhong, colluded with a group of officials below to embezzle a huge amount of money for repairing official roads."

"The officials of the Water Conservancy Department were corrupt and allocated more than 8,400 taels to the counties."

"Officials of the Mining Supervision Bureau colluded with local businessmen to sell copper and iron privately."

"The officials of Taifu Temple resold horse grain and soybeans, etc., and designated good horses as sick and died, and sold them to the local government privately."

…………

The list goes on and on. There are more than a dozen departments, all of which are involved in corruption.

One stroke at a time. It's really shocking, it's really jaw-dropping, and I can't wait to kill all these corrupt officials and corrupt officials!

Hong Chaojiao and Li Tie suddenly realized. This matter is no longer something that these two people can solve. It's too big to bear!

This anti-corruption storm that was originally caused by the corruption of Liu Su's small group turned out to be out of control, and it became a huge wave that swept through the three major systems of Wu Yijun's military, politics, and logistics.

Now there are more than 30 problematic officials, and the businessmen and magistrates who have been involved in their henchmen are even more unknown, and the scope of the impact is very wide, and the most important thing is that it involves several bigwigs who can be called the cornerstone of Wu Yijun!

For example, Wang Zhenfu of the logistics department, and Li Tie.

Yes. Even MI6 has a hundred households affected.

The only consolation is that at least the various armies and guards of the Wu Yi Army have nothing to do with this matter.

Therefore, they reported it as soon as possible, and what made them worried was that after reporting it, there was no news, and the adults seemed to be silent. Just when they thought that even adults had to turn this matter into a small matter because they were too widely implicated, Lian Zining sent Shi Dazhu to personally deliver a warrant, and there was only one big character on the warrant. A bloody vermilion character - kill!

Kill!

A fierce murderous aura came to his face. With this word, Li Tie and Hong Chaojiao can be regarded as courageous.

Since the adults said to kill, then let's kill! Kill him one day in the dark, blood flowing. Kill him with a fear, don't dare to commit it again!

As Lian Zining's henchmen, they also understand what the adults are thinking now - that is, to kill and strike like a storm. Come and stop this evil wind that is about to blow.

The two glanced at each other, and Li Tieyi stretched out his hand. Said: "Adults are the Lord, Adults please." ”

Hong Chaojiao was also not polite. He is really angry enough for the people under his hands, you must know that many of the people who committed the crime were pulled up by him, and if he wants to be investigated, he, the first civil official, is also very responsible. He looked coldly at the silent lobby and shouted in a deep voice: "Come on, beat the drum!" Order all officials to report according to their rank! ”

The rumbling of grievances at the entrance of the yamen rumbled, and the two rows of MI6 black and white impermanence with chains and iron rulers in their hands stood straight, lined up from the lobby to the yamen, all of them were ghostly and expressionless, making this place look like the palace of the king of Hades.

The first officials to enter the roll call were civil officials, and according to their ranks, these officials tidied up their clothes and entered the lobby tremblingly under the gaze of these black and white impermanence that felt extremely strange. Li Tie had a roster in front of him, and when he came in, he picked one by one, and the list of officials who had been found out was drawn next to a big red cross, which looked bloody, and whenever this kind of marked official roll call came in, Li Tie coughed lightly, and then Hong Chaojiao snorted coldly: "Take it!" ”

Immediately, two black and white impermanences pounced, held down the miserable-looking official, and escorted him to the side room. Then Li Tie used a brush to stroke horizontally and remove the person's name.

Those officials who were spared looked at the two expressionless gods sitting above, and then looked at the colleagues who were either scolding or looking miserable, or even crying, and they couldn't help but feel very afraid.

After the civil officials are finished, they are those officials in the logistics headquarters system, most of them are military officers, but they have been on an errand in Wang Dachun's logistics department since they joined the army, and they have never fought a battle, so they can be regarded as military generals.

In terms of logistics, there is a lot of oil and water, and it has always been a hotbed for corrupt officials and corrupt officials, especially the supply of Wu Yijun, the supply of hundreds of thousands of troops, and the silver that flows every day is like a river.

When these people first came up, they were still seven dissatisfied and eight were dissatisfied, they relied on themselves as a system, and Wang Dachun was behind their backs, and they were arrogant, and they didn't take Hong Chaojiao and Li Tie in their eyes, especially for Li Tie, because the former logistics headquarters in Maqiao Town was in charge of affairs Yamen Qianhu Bao Datong, these officials all had some opinions about Li Tie.

This is also the habit of the Chinese people, my people have made a mistake, I have nothing to say about him, but you can't interfere!

They came up one by one, with arrogance written on the left side of their faces and disbelief written on their right faces. Even when he saw Hong Chaojiao and Li Tie, he also gave his hand slightly, and the sense of disrespect came to his face.

Hong Chaojiao didn't speak, and looked at him coldly. After whispering a few words to Li Tie, Li Tie nodded. It was to summon the black and white impermanence of the hundred households who took the lead, and gave a few orders.

Everyone in the hall was stunned. I don't know what the two of them are doing.

After a while, a wooden sign was erected in the hall, and a piece of paper was pasted on the wooden card, with a blood-drenched killing word in the middle, and it was covered with the big seal of the commander of Nuer Gandu.

Everyone understands what this means. This is what the adults ordered, these two are on an errand under orders, and the adults. Obviously, he has already killed fiercely.

It was as if Qin sent out the sword of the Son of Heaven, after Hong Chaojiao and Li Tie asked for this warrant, everyone was immediately convinced, and they lowered their eyebrows one by one.

"Logistics Headquarters Garage Bureau Thousand Households, Yin Jian."

"Take it!"

A thousand-household officer with a dark face who looked like an iron pot had just come in, and Hong Chaojiao immediately snorted, and a few black and white impermanence went up to hold him down.

The Qianhu temperament was also extremely explosive, and he struggled at the moment, raising his arms and shouting: "Hong Chaojiao." Li Tie, why do you two dog crumbs take Lao Tzu! ”

How could it be that those black and white impermanence were all from the military, and they were very strong, and they pressed him to the ground and couldn't move.

Hong Chaojiao coldly pointed to the pestle: "By the order of the adult." Kill all of you corrupt officials! ”

The Qianhu's face was stunned, and he said stiffly: "Lao Tzu is not convinced by you, you let us Wang Zhenfu come out and speak!" Wang Zhenfu said a word. Lao Tzu immediately cut himself in the lobby here. ”

"I don't need your Wang Zhenfu to come forward." Hong Chaojiao said lightly and waved his hand: "Take it down!" ”

He secretly added a sentence in his heart: "I'm just afraid that your king will calm now." It's also hard to protect itself, right? ”

Next, there were a few officers who came in by roll call, and they were all taken directly. Before and after, a total of eight were arrested.

There are not many military attachés in the logistics headquarters who have been arrested on the spot, but despite this, the ruthless and ruthless methods of these two 'Lord Qincha' who don't talk about it at all also make everyone's hearts awe, and they no longer dare to have any rampant. The roll call was finally over, and there was silence in the lobby, all of them lowered their heads, just glancing at Hong Chaojiao and Li Tie with the corner of their eyes.

Hong Chaojiao said lightly: "This time, the two of us will do things on the orders of adults!" The adults ordered everyone to see it, just one word, kill! ”

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Kill!" Kill all these corrupt officials! Some of the officials who are now being investigated and punished will be tried in court tonight and executed tomorrow. When the time comes, everyone will go outside the south gate to watch, but don't forget. ”

Everyone hurriedly responded in unison.

Li Tie sighed secretly as he watched from the side, this time the purge moved a lot of people from the logistics headquarters, many of whom were Wang Dachun's henchmen, and the specific handling and investigation of this matter were all people from MI6. This time, it can be regarded as offending this one fiercely. Last time because of Bao Datong's incident, the two were already at odds with each other, and now Liang Zi is even bigger. With Wang Dachun's temperament, I am afraid that I will have to be more careful in the future.

A thought suddenly flashed in his heart: "Since you have already offended ruthlessly, why don't you do something more extreme?" Once it's over, never again! ”

No one saw it, the corners of Li Tie's eyes jumped, and he gritted his teeth vigorously, and the expression on his face was a little hideous.

On the second day, the execution began.

A team of black and white impermanence with steel knives unsheathed in their hands began to appear in the streets and alleys of towns and towns, and began to raid the homes of those officials who were taken yesterday.

There were cries everywhere around Zhenyuan Mansion, and there was an endless stream of family members of prisoners who were put in prison in shackles and locks. Under the deliberate control of Hong Chaojiao and Li Tie, the severe punishment that made people smell the color soon reached everyone's ears - all the main culprits and accomplices, no matter how big or small the crime, even if they were only greedy for ten taels of silver, they would be killed!

Wen Hong, Liu Su, Xu Heqing and other five people, Ling Chi, confiscated the family property, Yi three clans, within the nine clans, men and women are slaves.

Qu Ding and other thirteen people, beheaded in half, confiscated family property, and the three clans were slaves.

Xu Nanying and other forty-three people, the head of the owl, confiscated the family property, and the three clans were slaves.

At noon, there was already a sea of people outside the south gate, under Lian Zining's strict order, hundreds of thousands of people within a hundred miles around were organized by local officials to come here to watch, they crowded together, stretched their necks and looked inside, one by one with a happy face as if watching a big show. On the one hand, due to the official position for thousands of years, they are very afraid and respectful of the authority of the government and officials, and on the other hand, they are hostile.

And in the inner layer, there are huge soldiers who are not inferior in number to the common people, and they have also come here to watch under the organization of officers at all levels, and they are much more orderly than the people outside, and they are lined up in a neat line, standing there without saying a word.

These soldiers and civilians formed a huge circle, and in order to make it easier for them to watch, a lot of signs were even set up on the periphery.

Outside the south gate of Zhenyuan Mansion, the flat and wide bluestone road, which is thirty zhang wide and twenty-eight miles long, leads directly to the mountains and dense forests in the southern suburbs, and both sides have been blocked by a large number of soldiers and black and white impermanence. The road resembled a huge execution ground, with a prisoner kneeling every few steps on either side of the road, and behind him stood a soldier standing with a knife in his hands. These prisoners knelt from the south gate to the end of the road, and the twenty-eight miles long street was full of kneeling, their hands tied upside down, and their mouths were tied with strips of cloth, some of their faces were dull, some were sad, and some of them seemed to want to cry loudly.

In the innermost position outside the south gate, there were several wooden shelves similar to crosses, on which a few people were tied, and they were the ones who were about to be killed.

Downstairs in the South Gate City, Hong Chaojiao and Li Tie sat down, and their faces were not very good-looking, after all, they killed so many people at once, and they were all their own people!

It's just that since I've received an errand, I can't get back no matter what.

When noon came, a stick was thrown down from the city wall, and Hong Chaojiao shouted: "The prisoner is in place, and the body is verified!" ”

A general ran around with a horse in his hand, shouting while riding his horse, and everywhere he went, the soldiers standing behind the prisoners with knives shouted in unison: "Verify your identity!" Verify your identity! ”

The general came back in a circle and reported loudly: "The two adults, 637 death row prisoners, have all been verified, please give an order!" ”

This number soon spread, and everyone in the audience, no matter what their identity, was discolored. Six hundred and thirty-seven? Killing so many people at once, Wu Yibo is really ruthless! Not only ruthless to the enemy, but even more ruthless to their own people!

Hong Chaojiao threw down another stick: "Execution!" ”

"Execution!" The order was passed down layer by layer, and thousands of soldiers shouted in unison.

The execution began.

It was not a simple execution, in order to warn everyone, Lian Zining used the most cruel and ruthless Qin law.

Except for those who were going to be Ling Chi, all the other criminals cut off their noses and ears, then cut off their left and right arms, and finally they were the heads, and those who dared to insult and speak insults in the lobby before had to cut off their tongues.

The soldiers were executed, and everyone who watched this cruel and bloody scene couldn't help but be frightened and felt cold in their hearts.

In the end, the torture before the death penalty was over, and Hong Chaojiao threw down another signature: "Owl head!" ”

"Owl Head!"

The long word "head" was like a gust of wind, blowing all over the entire huge execution ground, and with a "bang" on both sides of the road, the sharp steel knives were raised together, shining with a clear light. A shocking 637 shining arcs were drawn, more than 600 blood splattered in the air, more than 600 human heads rolled down to their feet, and the air was suddenly filled with a strong bloody aura. (To be continued.) )
