I saw that several military attachés who were usually in the barracks and whose power was still above the commander were taken away by the slightest unceremonious beheading. The rest of the soldiers under their command also looked a little panicked. When it comes to such big or small things, the soldier is worried about setting himself on fire. Until Zhao Xiaoxi, a ruthless messenger, said that he would only kill the first evil and not implicate him.

As for the remaining low-level military attachés, Zhao Xiaoxi was all handed over to Gao Jiwu, the commander, and the life and death of those low-level military attachés. It's not his turn to manage it, what he has to do now is to let Gao Jiwu collect the military power of the Pingjiang Army as soon as possible. Prepare to enter the city to blockade Suzhou City, and take down all the officials involved in corruption cases in the city cleanly.

Looking at this commander, he reprimanded him severely, and quickly picked out a few low-level military attaches who were usually close to those generals, and handed them over to the military attachés who were loyal to him. In fact, most of the military attaches under his command were immediately promoted temporarily, and they served as the generals who were killed and detained, and they were temporarily managed by mixing with the soldiers of the headquarters.

Quickly receiving the military power of the Pingjiang Army, Zhao Xiaoxi immediately ordered the Pingjiang Army to enter the city and take over the defense of Suzhou. At the same time, the forbidden army controlled all the soldiers and officials outside Suzhou City, the Yamen of the Water Division. Those who dare to resist arrest will be killed. In addition, the forbidden army set up a checkpoint outside Suzhou to search for all pedestrians who came out of Suzhou to prevent news from leaking.

After the order was issued, Gao Jiwu soon took the officers and soldiers of Pingjiang and marched to Suzhou City. Those soldiers who defended the city were themselves under the jurisdiction of the Pingjiang Army, and they naturally did not dare to slack off when they saw Gao Jiwu's arrival. After opening the city gate, he was ordered by Gao Jiwu to collect weapons, take over the four gates of Suzhou, and block the yamen of the prefect of Suzhou and the yamen of Caoyun.

Seeing a large number of troops entering the city late at night, the people of Suzhou City felt that something big had happened. Sure enough, as Gao Jiwu began to order the soldiers, like the people of Suzhou City, the people of Suzhou City reported that the curfew was enforced and the people were not allowed to move around late at night. The people of Suzhou, who had not felt the curfew for a long time, returned to their homes after night tours.

As for the Goolan prostitution houses that were operated all night, they were also blocked by groups of Pingjiang officers and soldiers armed with knives and guns, and only people were allowed to leave but not to enter. If the officials who happened to spend the night here that night would be very unfortunate to be detained, waiting for Zhao Xiaoxi, the prince of the imperial mission, to make the final deal with him.

In the face of some civilian officials who did not know the situation, when they heard that some officers and soldiers were blockading the prostitution camp, they naturally came out arrogantly and ordered these soldiers to lift the blockade. As a result, what awaited them was that these officers and soldiers, who had been bullied by civilian officials on a daily basis, were beaten up and taken to controlled prisons and imprisoned. Waiting for their end, I'm afraid it won't be any better.

When the officers and soldiers patrolling the city reported the curfew, a ban on military force was also issued. Warriors who dare to carry swords during the curfew will be restricted from their freedom. As for the warriors who dare to resist or rebel, they will be killed without mercy. This also means that after Zhao Xiaoxi issued the order to blockade Suzhou City, the entire Suzhou City began to implement military control.

watched Li Xuewen, the prefect of Suzhou, who was woken up by the frightened master from the back hall of the street gate, hurriedly walked out in official uniforms, and Cao Chengming, the envoy of Caoyun, who was taken away from the Caoyun Yamen by the officers and soldiers.

These two most powerful officials in Suzhou City on weekdays looked at Gao Jiwu with anger on their faces, but in the face of the soldiers with clear swords and guns and the silent Gao Jiwu, they were also thinking in their hearts, what happened!

You must know that leading troops into the city late at night to arrest the two highest administrators of a city is a great crime like rebellion. Gao Jiwu is crazy? This kind of big crime will implicate the family behind him, isn't he afraid at all?

Just when Li Xuewen was still saying loudly: "General Gao, do you know that leading troops into the city to detain this mansion is a big crime of rebellion. Aren't you afraid that the court will track it down and punish your whole clan? ”

"Whether the court will punish the whole family of General Gao, this king knows that it will not. But whether the saint will be Zhu'er and the rest of the whole clan, this king really doesn't know. ’

Li Xuewen and Cao Chengming, who immediately turned their heads when they heard the voice, soon saw Zhao Xiaoxi, who walked in under the protection of several military attachés. Through Zhao Xiaoxi's title just now, the two high-ranking officials of Suzhou City didn't understand for a while that the man in armor was the prince. But no matter what the prince is, if he does this kind of thing, isn't he afraid of the emperor's punishment?

Or did he dare to do this, which was in itself the emperor's favor?

Just when the two civil officials began to think, Huyan Leopard, who was standing beside Zhao Xiaoxi, suddenly held out a holy decree and said: "Holy metaphor, everyone listens to the decree!" ”

As soon as these words came out, including Zhao Xiaoxi, after all the people in the room knelt down and shouted long live, Huyan Leopard quickly said the content of the holy decree. When they heard that this young man who claimed to be the king was the most trusted king of Bashu County in the two palaces today, Li Xuewen and Cao Chengming both had a feeling that something was wrong.

When the holy decree fell into the hands of Zhao Xiaoxi, looking at the two apprehensive Suzhou prefects and Cao Yun envoys, Zhao Xiaoxi sat on the high official chair and said: "Governor Li, Lord Cao, do you want to know why the Holy Lord appointed this king as the supervisor of the two Zhejiang provinces and improved the military and political affairs of the two provinces?" ”

Li Xuewen said respectfully: "I don't know the humble position, and I ask the prince to teach me!" ”

Zhao Xiaoxi didn't bend around and said directly: "After speaking, you will know that Jiangnan has the most abundant taxes in Zhejiang." However, in recent years, the taxes handed over to the imperial court by the two Zhejiang provinces have decreased year by year. The saint felt that it was necessary for the king to come over and see why the taxes of the two Zhejiang, which were becoming more and more prosperous in commerce and trade, were getting less and less year by year. Whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, can the two adults explain it to the king? ”

In the face of Zhao Xiaoxi's blunt statement that he came to Jiangnan, it was for taxes that the two bigwigs in Suzhou City were also nervous. Cao Chengming, who was in charge of transshipment taxes, quickly said: "Back to the prince, how dare the officials and others speak in vain about the tax of the two Zhejiang. This is the responsibility of the Lord Zhizhou and the transfer envoy, and the lower officials really have no way of knowing! ”

'Oh, listening to Lord Cao's meaning, I want to know the reason for the reduction of taxes, and I still need this king to go to Hangzhou to find Liu Zhizhou to ask. But since this king is coming to Suzhou today, Lord Cao is responsible for the collection of taxes in Suzhou, can you talk to this king? Is the tax in Suzhou more or less this year than in previous years? As for Liu Zhizhou, this king will come to him and ask him. No hurry! ’

Hearing Zhao Xiaoxipi reply with a smile, the two Suzhou bigwigs realized that the situation was not good, as for this Lord Cao, he was very genius, and said that this year's taxes still need to be sorted out by the yamen before they can be returned. At the same time, the two were also thinking about how to quickly inform the magistrate of the matter of the imperial court sending a Qin to investigate the tax case.

Regarding the push and delay of this Cao Yun envoy, Zhao Xiaoxi sneered: "I really don't cry when I don't see the coffin, is it really when this king comes here tonight, don't you know anything?" Or do you think that as long as the matter is pushed on the head of your Zhizhou, this king will have nothing to do with them? Do you know what is the tax money that has been embezzled? That is the cornerstone of the Great Song Dynasty and the hard work of the people.

Didn't Lord Cao say that it would take time to sort out the things related to Suzhou's taxes? The king asked you to see a few things, you tell the king, why is there only a million taxes in Suzhou City for nearly half a year? And the salt introduced by your Caoyun Yamen is as much as 10,000 quintals, where is the tax and silver, can you explain it to this king? ”

Looking at the soldiers who came up from behind him and threw the account book locked in his back office in front of him, Cao Chengming realized that it was over. Because most of these books are recorded with real data. However, the tax money they handed over to the yamen every year was a different set of account books, the purpose of which was to hide the real income of the yamen.

Seeing that Cao Chengming's face turned pale, Zhao Xiaoxi stood up from his seat and said: "The Jiangnan tax is related to the livelihood of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is related to the clothing and food of the army. Now that you're being filled with your nest of moths who don't want to be loyal, you all deserve to die! Damn it! The Nine Clans should be punished. The dignified court officials, they still have time to be a judge of a prostitute, you are really loyal!

Tell you, don't expect anyone to save you, see the sword of Shang Fang in the hand of this king. As long as this king thinks that you deserve to die, this king can kill you one by one. Maybe you think that this king doesn't dare, the Jiangnan tax case involves nearly half of the Jiangnan officials, and most of them are city officials like you.

But please remember that this king is a martial artist, and the best way to solve problems is to kill. If you think that killing you corrupt officials will make this king infamous as a star-killer, then this king will take a look, when the people of the Great Song Dynasty know what you have done. Will you say that this king kills too hard, or will you say that you should be killed. ”

After saying these words, looking at the two officials who were paralyzed on the ground, Zhao Xiaoxi directly signaled Huyan Leopard and ordered the forbidden army to take him into custody for interrogation. At the same time, according to the confessions of those military attachés, all the officials and businessmen involved in the matter in Suzhou City were pulled out of their homes for interrogation. Once the evidence is conclusive, all the property will be confiscated.

As for Zhao Xiaoxi, he directly sat in the prefect's yamen, responsible for handling the cases sent over one after another, and at the same time began to think about the next action plan. And as Zhao Xiaoxi blocked the city gate and began to search for those corrupt officials and salt merchants, many people in Suzhou City could be said to have stayed awake all night. Watch as the soldiers kick the door into the house, taking away the officials and businessmen involved in the commotion in the midst of the noise.

The salt merchants who raised warriors dared to resist arrest, and they were given the same ruthless military massacre. If the prisoner honestly pleads guilty, his family may still be spared. For a while, the whole city of Suzhou also resounded with the sound of swords and cries, but many people still did not know what crimes these officials and businessmen had committed, and they would be arrested and slaughtered by these officers and soldiers?
