Chapter 219: Unrepentant
The first to be killed were the people of the Wang family in the six major families, and the Wang family was also the least in Zhao Ling's eyes, the Wang family was not the most powerful among the six major families, but it was the most arrogant.
The other major families all know that they are clumsy, this Wang family is good, as long as there is a little merit, they will take the opportunity to ask the court for a reward, and they are afraid that others will not know the strength of his Wang family.
At every turn, he talked about the tens of thousands of Han lieutenants in his hands, and it seemed that as long as he had tens of thousands of Han lieutenants in his hands, he could ignore other people.
In such an atmosphere, the subordinates of the Wang family are also used to flying and domineering, they never settle the bill on the street, and they do not do less things to bully the weak, relying on the prestige of the Wang family, rampant in the Wang family's fiefdom.
The people who belong to the Wang family's fiefdom have long been miserable, and the Wang family only cares about their own enjoyment, as long as it is something that their Wang family likes, then it will appear in the Wang family's mansion the next day.
The heavy taxes were more than three or two times that stipulated by the Jin court, and the people in the Wang family's fiefdom hated the Wang family even more.
It's just a pity that the court has not paid much attention to the affairs of the Wang family over the years, which not only fueled the arrogance of the Wang family, but also made the people die.
It's not that they haven't resisted, a few years ago, the Jin Kingdom encountered a cold that was rare in a century, and tens of thousands of displaced people froze to death overnight.
Zhao Ling ordered the whole country to provide disaster relief, and under the control of several other families, they more or less distributed some materials to the people who belonged to their fiefdoms, so that they would not be too desperate.
However, the Wang family did not take Zhao Ling's words seriously, not only for disaster relief, but also to kill which refugees and threw them directly to the dry gang, a large state of hundreds of thousands of people, and the number of people was reduced by half overnight.
The Wang family did not hesitate to report that it was a refugee rebellion, so they had to suppress it.
After the population decreased, what they did even more desperately was to directly instigate their soldiers and horses to go out to other places to rob the exiles, and drove the exiles from other places to their fiefdoms.
Then they forced extremely exploitative treaties to make these exiles the people of their royal fiefdoms.
This made several other families unaccustomed to the Wang family's approach for a long time, but because of the situation, and their six major families and the Jin royal family were not completely of one mind, so they turned a blind eye

only turned a blind eye, after all, the Wang family is a mad dog, which is well known to them, and if they don't get it right, they will want whoever they catch.
At this juncture, several other families want to preserve their strength, and they don't want to spend time with the Wang family.
This made the Wang family think that other families and the royal family were afraid of them, and it was impossible to describe them if they intensified.
Over the years, the crimes received by the court about the Wang family are almost piled up in a study, Zhao Ling can really bear it, and he also turns a blind eye to the people of the Wang family, knowing that this is Zhao Ke's chess piece in order to stop him, and he can't move.
If you want to be more aggrieved, you can be as aggrieved as you want, however, at this moment, new hatred and old hatred surged in Zhao Ling's heart at once, and after giving the order to do it, his somewhat fat and swarthy body still sat on the throne and did not move, quietly watching the purge under the stage.
"Cen Xiang, what are you doing, you are a small commander of the imperial capital, how dare you do it to Wang Shizheng, come on, take down this chaotic minister and thief for me."
The heads of several members of the Wang family were cut off mercilessly by the guards led by Cen Xiang, and the bloody scene shocked the several families who came out behind, although they were in high positions, and they had seen a lot of bloody scenes.
But after so many years of stability and happiness, and seeing such a bloody scene again, I still couldn't help but retreat to the main hall, and at the same time I didn't forget to shout from the outside powerhouse.
However, they shouted for a long time, and it was still quiet and terrible outside the court, and it was as if they had not heard their shouts.
After reacting, they looked back at the Jin Emperor who had been mediocre and even a little weak before, and at this time they faced it squarely and still sat on the throne as if they had expected everything.
Careless, the indescribable panic in their hearts at this moment, they had not been unguarded against Zhao Ling before, but it was a pity that Zhao Ling had almost never resisted in the past ten years, which made them constantly let down their guard.
Moreover, who would have calculated a sudden news this morning, which completely disrupted their calculations over the years.
It is true that their respective families have a lot of private armies, but now they are completely fish and meat to be slaughtered in the court, even if they have all the strength, they also have the feeling of punching cotton.

"Cen Xiang, don't stop it quickly, let us go, have you forgotten who single-handedly promoted you from a gatekeeper to today's position?"
Now that they already knew that this was Emperor Jin's killing move, they didn't expect this Cen Xiang to back them when they went to court today, nor did they calculate that Zhao Ling would make a move at this juncture.
They were very annoyed in their hearts, so they could only hope for Cen Xiang, but Cen Xiang, who was standing at the door with a blood-dripping knife at the moment, didn't seem to hear them.
Raising his head, the cold gaze made the hearts of several major families and some other courtiers shudder, and the fierce gaze was like an ice sword, piercing them to the bottom of their hearts.
"I even killed the people of the Wang family, do you think I still care about the kindness you say"? The words of understatement sounded in everyone's ears, which made the people of several major families look at each other, and then they remembered that Cen Xiang was the eyes and ears of the Wang family, and it was also because the Wang family secretly controlled many people around Zhao Ling, so they dared to be so arrogant.
As a result, it is good now, but the cultivated scratching teeth have now become the murderer who harvested their last lives.
"Bah, you are an ungrateful villain, the Wang family is kind to you, you actually do it to your benefactor, you claim to be a loyal person, I think you are a pig and a dog", the Song family, Song Ctrip stood up, threw away his official hat, and scolded.
The strength of the Song family of the Jin Kingdom is neither top nor too bad, it is considered medium among the six major families, the Song family is neither biased towards Zhao Ke's side, nor is it completely standing with the six major families, it can be said that the Song family is an alternative.
The Song family is not respectful to Zhao Ling, but compared to the other families of the six major families, the Song family is relatively loyal.
The generations of the Song family are all honest and honest people, and they don't care about wanting to pull Zhao Ling down, and they don't want to go to the table.
So Song Ctrip dared to stand up and accuse Cen Xiang at this time, he didn't believe that Cen Xiang dared to do something to them in front of the ministers of the Jin Kingdom.
The people of several families behind him are secretly scolding this Song Ctrip is really not an elder, at this time, Zhao Ling has done it, what kind of benevolence, righteousness and morality are you still talking to people here, it seems that this Song family is notoriously dead-headed.
So he didn't care about Ctrip, but secretly summed up how to get out of the current dead end.
