The late autumn night breeze was already cool, blowing black smoke from the torches.

The cacophony of the river house for a day has fallen silent.

After countless people who tried to resist were fulfilled by the Hedong soldiers, the people finally collapsed.

Those who resist arrest and those who resist will be killed on the spot.

This sentence is obviously not a joke, he is real.

"It's a rebellion! It's a rebellion! ”

In the courtyard of the Ji family, all the men stood in the courtyard, looking at the red fire in the sky.

Ji Fucheng muttered to himself.

"How dare he? How dare he? He repeated the phrase over and over again.

“… There are Li Chang's three thieves who infiltrated and colluded to incite civil unrest..."

Outside the door, announcements came in with the night wind, making everyone in these courtyards feel cold.

"The surname is Ji! You.. You're fucking in collusion with the Li thief.. You're fucking killing Lao Tzu...", two men with pale faces and trembling slightly, suddenly shouted.

"This is Lu Yan's slander!" Ji Fucheng shouted.

The two men shuddered.

"How dare he...", they muttered in a low voice, "relying on this sentence to collude with the Li thief without evidence, does he really dare to kill so many people......

At this time, Lu Yan was not outside, he went out of the house and came to the Yangjia Village, which was closest to Hedong Fort.

Yangjiazhai village is larger, in order to defend against Tartars and bandits, there is an earthen wall and earth fort, and two archways are erected in front of the fort, showing its status as an extraordinary family.

"Lord Lu. Lord Lu, it's good that they retreat, it's good that they retreat, everyone solves the misunderstanding, and everyone is happy. The prefect hurriedly squeezed in from the back of the guard queue, grabbed Lu Yan's hand and whispered.

"Misunderstanding?" Lu Yan smiled faintly. "What's the misunderstanding? There is no misunderstanding. ”

The prefect was stunned.

"Erlang, I know that they have made a bit of trouble this time, and your wife is frightened, but balance is the most important thing." He whispered.

"Do you think I, Lu Yan, am out of personal vendetta?" Lu Yan turned his gaze. Asked.

In the torch, the man's face flickered, his eyes sparkled, and the prefect felt the chill in his eyes for no reason, and he couldn't help but stagger his gaze.

"Your Excellency doesn't know yet, this time it's not a simple civil unrest." Lu Yan said, his hand stretched out. A soldier next to him immediately handed over a scroll.

Lu Yan opened it with a shake of his hand and handed it to the prefect.

"My lord, this is a list of all the Li Changsan who infiltrated my Hedong, as well as a list of people who have been in contact with him..."He said.

Li Changsan? Anti-thief Li Changsan? The prefect was startled, took the scroll, and with the bright torches on both sides, he saw the dense names on it, and many of them were familiar.

"This... This.. When is the thief—" he asked in shock.

"Don't tell you that the lobbyist of the Li thief came to me a month ago..."Lu Yan smiled slightly.

Lobbying officers and soldiers, this Li thief has not done it. And it has also succeeded, and the Shandong side has fallen into chaos.

Unexpectedly, Li Thief actually stretched out his hand here, and the prefect broke out in a cold sweat.

"I didn't expect that the thief's heart would not die, and he couldn't persuade me, and he wanted to lead people to riot." Lu Yan continued, his gaze turned to the deep mansion compound in front of him, "These big households. Enjoying the favor of the imperial court, they actually did such a rebellious thing for their own personal gain, my lord, do you want to defend them? Maintaining such traitors? ”

The prefect was shocked, he couldn't afford to carry such a big hat.

"Nope. No, no," he shook his hand again and again, perhaps because Lu Yan's momentum was too pressing, he couldn't help but take two steps back.

Lu Yan looked at him and nodded.

"The matter of eating the king's Lu and being loyal to the king." He turned around and looked up at the front, "Yang Lin colluded with the anti-thief Li Changsan, stirred up trouble and fornicated with thieves, with bad intentions, take it for me." ”

With his voice, the soldiers on standby shouted in unison.

"Listen to the people inside, today we are investigating Yang Lin's enemy, the evidence is conclusive, and I am arrested and brought to justice by the order of the Lord of Integrity, so you can't help the abuse, surrender quickly!" A soldier shouted.

"Nonsense, nonsense!"

"This is slander!"

"We are the Yang family, we are the commander of Taizhou Yang..."

The noise inside did not fall, and a cannon roared, and the fort gate of Yangjiazhai was torn apart with the firelight.

The sound of this cannon was very alarming in the dark night.

The people in the Ji family's mansion naturally heard it.

"What's that sound?" Everyone asked in a panic.

Hedong Mansion is equipped with two cannons, which are only placed at the city gate every day, and due to the shortage of cannonballs, it is easy to move.

"This kind of sound has only been heard when the Tartars are coming." Ji Fucheng muttered, he raised his head and looked at the sky illuminated by the firelight, "I didn't expect that this Lu Yan would really dare to use it on our people..."

"Grandpa, grandpa, what should I do?"

Today, the merciless assassination on the street, one by one shops were kicked open, and they couldn't help but be handcuffed and confiscated, and now they are trapped in their homes, and outside are the guards with real knives and guns ready to attack, and finally there are grandchildren and nephews who can no longer stand the pressure and collapse.

"Old Ji, you've killed us."

"I said earlier that this surnamed Lu can't be messed with..."

"That surnamed Lu has killed countless people, and he is ruthless, what do you provoke him to do..."

There was a sudden chaos in the courtyard of the Ji family.

In the moment of chaos, the door of the Ji family was also slammed open, and a large number of ironclad sergeants poured in, looking at the tall and fierce soldiers, looking at the bright spear, there were still undried blood stains on it, they approached step by step, and the undisguised killing intent made everyone in the Ji family stand on end.

The crowd parted, and Lu Yan walked over slowly, looking at Ji Fu coldly.

"Okay, Lu Yan, why are you sure that you are doing this to be perfect?" Ji Fucheng sneered.

Lu Yan smiled faintly.

"Just like you dare to do this, I will naturally dare to do this." He said, waving his hand at the Ji family.

Two soldiers rushed in. Out of it came a man of about forty.

The man struggled with fright, anger and injustice.

Others are clamoring.

"Ji Fucheng, isn't this person wronged by being a bookkeeper in your house?" Lu Yan ignored them, but looked at Ji Fucheng, "This is Li Changsan's brother-in-law." ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked.

The man was shocked.

"You, how do you know me?" He asked with a glare.

His face was the same as the homeless man who had appeared outside the Fort in the River that day.

"It can't be." Ji Fucheng sneered. It was hard to hide the horror in his eyes, "Lu Yan, don't play this trick with me." ”

Lu Yan looked at him with the eyes of a dead man and didn't say a word.

"This can't be, Brother Huang. Brother Huang, our ancestors have been friends for several lifetimes, how can you be..."Ji Fucheng looked at the man who was held down by the soldiers, and shouted repeatedly, "You don't want to be bought by this Lu Yan, you must know that it can't be fake, it can't be fake..."

"That's right. It really can't be fake, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it in the lobby. Lu Yan said lightly.

"The surname is Lu, didn't Master Li tell you, you despicable..."The man who had been in shock suddenly shouted.

It's a pity that before he finished his words, the soldiers on the side punched him in the face, and immediately teeth and blood flew together, and the person fainted in severe pain.

"We are not guilty! We are not guilty! ”

"Our loyalty and righteousness can be seen every day!"

seems to feel that the general trend has gone, and everyone in the Ji family is clamoring even more. The house slaves subconsciously waved their weapons.

"Kill yourself." A cold light flashed in Lu Yan's eyes, and he grabbed the spear of a soldier on the side and threw it vigorously.

The spear was inserted precisely in front of a house slave who was shouting with a weapon.

The slave screamed and fell to the ground.

"The Ji family voted against the thief Li Changsan, resisted arrest, and killed him." Lu Yan said slowly.

With this command, there was a sudden silence in the field.

"Lu Yan, you dare!" Ji Fucheng was cold. shouted.

"You dare to let me die, why don't I dare let you die?" Lu Yan turned around, looked at him and said coldly, "Isn't there only you who can live and die between us?" If I lose this time, will you keep me and make you sick? ”

Ji Fucheng looked at him. The face is like ashes.

"Lu Yan, why, why." A sharp female voice came, and Ji Yue'e rushed out of the crowd, "Why am I not as good as her, where am I not as good as her..."

Lu Yan glanced at the woman and frowned in disgust.

"What are you to compare yourself to?" He seemed to be talking to himself, saying that he would turn around and leave, waving his big hand.

"Lord Ethics arrests Li thief and spies, the Ji family collaborates with the enemy, and the puppet resists stubbornly, so don't worry about killing." A cold proclamation sounded.

Immediately, there was an exclamation, a terrible scream, and the smell of blood spread in the cold night sky.

When it was dark, an official document about the peaceful chaos in Hedong was quickly sent to Pingyangwei and Taiyuan Mansion and other official offices, and the whole Shanxi was shaken.

The stakes are very high, and it involves a number of big squires and merchants, including relatives and friends of civil and military officials at all levels, except for the stubborn Ji family in Hezhong who was exterminated on the spot, the others were handed over to Pingyang Wei 34 for trial, pending a verdict.

Of course, this time, from the initial backlog of public anger turned into an anti-thief riot, and many people died, naturally many officials raised questions, thinking of the turmoil in the previous paragraph, and questioning Lu Yan's excuse to eliminate dissidents and frame blame.

But helplessly, the evidence sent by Lu Yan was conclusive, there were Li Changsan's spies who were captured, and all the details of how several big families sold food to Li Thief, and even Lu Yan did not evade it, and explained in detail how Li Changsan's people approached him, and what conditions were offered, and there were letters to prove it.

The only pity is that the Li thief who personally contacted him was too cunning and was not caught.

Under such human and material evidence, the chaos in Hedong Mansion was characterized as an anti-thief rebellion, and those big families and squire merchants who participated were able to cry bitterly after hemorrhage to show that they were deceived and bewitched by the Ji family to do such a heart-wrenching thing and escape death, but they no longer dared to have the slightest resentment against Lu Yan, and the bloody night they experienced this time was enough to make them have nightmares for life.

In this incident, Lu Yan was not injured at all, and in one fell swoop, he pulled out several wealthy families in Hedong, and confiscated the family property and fertile land, which was enough to make the soldiers and civilians of Hedong Fort cheer and have no worries about food and clothing.

"Sure enough, the law cannot be violated." Lu Yan looked at Wang Mo and sighed.

Rebellion is a big crime, and the law is not lenient.

"It's very simple, isn't the matter of this world more reasonable than anyone else in the final analysis?" Wang Mo said with a smile.

Wang Mo, who was still wearing a lupine scarf, smiled lightly, with a light and breezy look, and no one could see that this serial plan with strength came from this person.

"You want to hold me hostage? Look at their faces? Lu Yan looked at the generals next to him, and everyone was smiling, "It's ridiculous!" ”

Taiyuan Mansion, Jin Wangfu, the fat Jin King laughed heartily.

"Okay, good, I'm not mistaken, the son can be taught, I have suffered the loss of Songshan Fort, and this time I did a good job!" He high-fived and smiled, "This son can really guard the foundation for me!" ”

When he said this, he stood up, his eyes trapped in fat flesh widened suddenly, and he looked straight in the direction of the capital.

"Wang'er, it's time for us to go and get back what belongs to us." He said slowly.

In front of him, the prince of Jin knelt on the ground excitedly. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
