Seeing that they are about to catch up with the disaster victims.

Li Er's eyes couldn't help but flash a flash of ecstasy.

"Hurry up! Faster! Rush in and stay alive!" Li Er roared loudly to cheer himself up.

At the moment when it was about to successfully blend into the ranks of the victims!

A kick kicked out of the ranks of the victims.

"Bang!"

Caught off guard, Li Er fell directly backwards.

Don't wait for it to get up from the ground.

There was a chill in my neck.

A waist knife, resting impartially at his neck.

Li Er gasped and raised his head with difficulty.

I saw a middle-aged man, staring at him with disdain.

"You...... Who are you, I ...... I'll give you money! You let me go." Li Er begged for mercy with difficulty.

As soon as the words fell.

Li Er felt a pain in his neck, and then the whole person fainted in a daze.

"Escort him down, and when His Royal Highness the Six Princes come down, he will be at his disposal!" The middle-aged man commanded in a deep voice.

Then he looked at the young man who was rushing towards him not far away with all kinds of weapons in his hands.

A playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he immediately ordered, "Surround them! Don't let one go!"

In an instant, countless "obey" sounds were heard from all directions.

Don't wait for many sturdy young people to come back to their senses.

Not far away, dozens of officials in soap clothes were rushing towards this side with waist knives in their hands.

On horseback, I saw that Dong Xing had already succeeded, and it did not have much impact on the victims.

Xu Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Immediately, a look of hesitation appeared in his eyes.

That is, what to do with the group of young people in front of you.

According to Xu Yi's original idea, if it causes turmoil, then kill them all! Make an example! Kill 100 people!

But now, there is no bad impact.

So, is it the first evil? Or is it a strong repression and all killed?

Almost instantly, Xu Yi had already made the most correct decision in his heart.

Xu Yi raised his hand and motioned for everyone to slow down.

When he rushed to the encirclement, Xu Yile stopped fighting his horse.

He shouted, "Put down your weapon! Otherwise, they will all be killed!"

The words fell.

Dozens of officials are gearing up, and the waist knife in their hands is even more clear and penetrating into people's hearts.

The three hundred guards of the city took a step forward with a very cooperative brush.

In a flash. With Xu Yi as the center, it brings together countless eyes within a radius of two or three miles.

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I'll throw it away now!"

"Don't kill me! I know it's wrong!"

"Big man, I confess, I confess, as long as you don't kill me, let *** do anything."

In an instant, the originally vigorous and sturdy young man all threw away the "weapon" in his hand and knelt on his knees, constantly kowtowing towards Xu Yi.

Xu Yi said in a deep voice, "Tie them all up."

"Obey!" Dozens of officials responded loudly in unison, and then quickly turned over and dismounted.

Seeing this, Dong Xing sighed slightly, and his sigh was full of pity.

I don't know why.

Dong Xing took two quick steps, hugged his fists and said, "Your Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, Fang Cai will catch a person at the end, and when that person was arrested, he was being chased and killed by this group of disaster victims."

"Where is that man now?" Xu Yi asked in a deep voice.

Dong Xing clasped his fists and saluted, then looked behind him and waved his hand.

Immediately, two soldiers in disguise walked briskly carrying Li Er, who had fainted.

When he got closer, he slammed it to the ground.

Under the severe pain, Li Er quickly woke up.

"What's your name?" Xu Yi turned over and dismounted, and asked sharply.

Li Er's eyes flashed

A touch of dodge, just about to speak.

Xu Yi added: "Those young people have been caught by me, if you lie to me, be careful of the consequences."

Li Er struggled for a few breaths and resigned himself to his fate: "Li ...... Li Er."

"Where is Zhang Wu? Where is the treasurer?" Xu Yi asked in a deep voice.

A touch of unnaturalness flashed on Li Er's face, and then his face turned red, he stretched out his hand to the tent behind him, and said loudly: "Over there, my lord, the big shopkeeper will kill the little one with a hundred taels of gold!"

"Those people have received the benefits of the big treasurer! None of these people can be spared, my lord."

Xu Yi glanced at Li Er noncommittally.

Then he turned to look at Zhao Shou and ordered, "Let the brothers stop tying up first, and escort Li Er to bring the big shopkeeper and Zhang to justice."

Zhao Shou hugged his fists and said, "Obey!"

After Zhao Shou and the other officials left.

Xu Yi looked at Dong Xing and said calmly, "Vice General Dong, please trouble the soldiers and tie up all the thieves who have not been tied!"

Dong Xing's eyes flashed with joy, and then he said with a little gratitude: "The last general will obey the order!"

The words fell.

Xu Yi turned to look at the victims who stopped and watched not far away.

Seeing Xu Yi turn around, most of the victims were full of numbness in their eyes.

A small number of victims bowed their heads directly, not daring to look at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi was a little settled in his heart, and he didn't say much, so he slowly swept towards the victims not far away.

A moment later.

Dong Xing walked quickly, clenched his fists and said loudly, "Your Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, the two hundred and thirty-seven people have all been tied."

Meanwhile.

Zhao Shou walked quickly and reported in a low voice: "Sixth Master, Zhang Wu is dead, and the big shopkeeper has been taken down."

Xu Yi turned around and nodded slightly, then looked at Dong Xing, and ordered: "Vice General Dong, please escort all the two hundred and thirty-seven people to that tent, and then ask Vice General Dong to organize manpower to assist in the normal operation of the soup kitchen."

As he spoke, Xu Yi pointed to the large tent where dozens of officials were not far away.

Hearing this, Dong Xing hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "The last general will obey the order."

......

Inside a large tent that originally belonged to the big treasurer.

Xu Yi sat upright in the top position.

Constantly weighing the large amount of gold and silver jewelry, gold bricks and silver ingots piled up in front of him.

It is hard to imagine that the big leader of a small force could use such a huge amount of wealth.

One can imagine how many people have been harmed by this group of people since the outbreak of the drought.

On both sides of the tent, ten officials held horsewhips and constantly interrogated the thieves in front of them.

From the leader's point onwards, no one escaped the whips of the officials.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was more than half of the unitary hour.

Dusk has officially fallen.

The thieves in the tent have already changed wave after wave.

Xu Yi also listened to the screams and confessions for nearly half an hour.

Xu Yi slowly got up and walked out of the tent.

At this time, the soup kitchen has just ended.

The men and men of the merchant houses who came with the convoy were quickly packing up the barrels and other things.

Xu Yi glanced up at the sky, then turned to look at Zhao Shou behind him and whispered a few words.

After Zhao Shouce left.

Xu Yi stopped for a long time, his eyes constantly shuttling between the victims and the wood.

Half an hour later.

The rainbow on the horizon became more and more red.

Outside the Xuanping Gate, with the departure of the soup kitchen, it fell into tranquility again.

Inside a slightly dilapidated tent.

Xu Yi pressed one hand on the handle of the Abyss Knife.

His eyes were unusually calm and looked at the more than twenty or thirty officials and soldiers on the left and right.

Giving one order after another in a deep voice!

With the issuance of one order after another, one

Another soldier and the official clenched their fists, and then walked towards the account with a serious face.

The five hundred soldiers surrounding the dilapidated tent all moved in an instant.

This dusk is destined to become a blood-stained twilight.

......

Night.

In the imperial study room of the Zichen Palace of the Imperial City Daming Palace.

Emperor Zhengde put down the last book tiredly.

Leaning on the dragon chair, he closed his eyes slightly and asked casually, "Zhan Zhu, what did Xu Yi do today?"

Zhan Zhu lowered his head and replied, "Back to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince hit his *** board because of Chang Shilang's roaring in the court today."

"Then I talked to everyone in the Jingzhao Mansion Workshop alone for nearly half an hour."

"Soon after, he organized horse-drawn carriages to purchase timber on a large scale, and even transported all the timber stored in the homes of the Feng family and other people who were raided to the outside of the city."

The words fell.

Zhan Zhu raised his head slightly and looked at Emperor Zhengde.

See that there is no indication in it.

Fang Cai continued to speak, "Before long, the sixth prince personally walked to the city gate with more than 2,000 carpenters."

"According to the Xuanpingmen secret agent, the six princes seem to have led people to build a porridge shack outside the city."

Emperor Zhengde slowly opened his eyes and asked, "Isn't there already a porridge shed outside the city? Why build?"

Zhan Zhu hurriedly bowed his head and replied, "Back to Your Majesty, according to the secret agent of Xuanpingmen, the porridge shed built by the six princes is much smaller than the existing porridge shed, and the coverage is more comprehensive."

"Not doing your job." Emperor Zhengde commented dissatisfiedly, and then said calmly, "Is there anything else?"

Zhan Zhu replied, "I just received a secret report from the secret agent, there are three small forces outside the city, and the six princes and a group of officials and Vice General Dong who went out to escort the porridge and rice have joined forces to quell it."

"At dusk, he joined forces with Vice General Dong and other soldiers to purge all kinds of forces outside the city that were causing disasters."

Hearing this, Emperor Zhengde slowly asked, "How many men and horses did Vice General Dong take out of the city?" How many servants did Xu Yi bring?"

Zhan Zhu's heart sank when he heard this, and he hurriedly replied truthfully: "Back to Your Majesty, Vice General Dong went out of the city this time, bringing a total of 500 soldiers to escort the porridge and rice, and the sixth prince brought more than 100 Jingzhao Mansion officials."

For some reason, Zhan Zhu didn't specifically mention that there were three hundred soldiers who had been dressed in disguise.

Emperor Zhengde nodded slightly, and said calmly, "I know."

The words fell.

There was a long dead silence in the study.

A moment later.

Emperor Zhengde said calmly: "After dawn tomorrow, the cabinet will draft a decree to urge Xu Yi to solve the disaster victims outside the three gates of Guanghua, Jingyao, and Fanglin as soon as possible!"

"If the victims are allowed to move around at will, it won't be long before they gather outside the Xuanwu Gate! What kind of system?"

The three gates of Guanghua Gate, Jingyao Gate and Fanglin Gate are all city gates located in the north of Chang'an City.

It is very close to the imperial city, and it is also the place where the most victims gather.

In the past, when did Emperor Zhengde pay attention to those disaster victims?

At this moment, for some reason, he uncharacteristically mentioned the victims of the North City Gate.

Zhan Zhu's heart froze, and he hurriedly replied, "Obey."

......

The night is getting late.

Dozens of huge tents were set up outside Xuanping Gate.

Dozens of tents are scattered and orderly, like a small camp.

Countless torches lit up the small camp as if it were day.

Countless figures walked back and forth in the camp.

Meanwhile.

The screams in the camp were endless.

But for some reason, the louder the screams inside the camp, the louder the crying outside the camp.

For a while, the outside of Xuanping Gate was like a ghost, and it looked particularly infiltrating in the night.

However, if you listen carefully, it is not difficult to find that the crying outside the Xuanping Gate is clearly the sound of crying with joy

。

Inside a tent in the center.

Xu Yi sat upright on the improvised table.

Slowly writing one character after another with a pen.

A moment later, a piece of white rice paper was covered with characters that were very different from those of this era.

Xu Yi put down the wolf pen in his hand and looked gloomily at the rice paper full of characters.

For some reason, the numbers were clearly written on the rice paper.

But in Xu Yi's eyes, there are only two bloody big characters - cannibalism!

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent.

Xu Yi put away the rice paper full of numbers and looked up at the door curtain.

"Sixth Master." Outside the tent, Zhao Shou's voice came in clearly.

"Enter." Xu Yi retracted his gaze and said calmly.

The curtain was lifted from the outside.

Zhao Shou walked in with a thick stack of rice paper.

"Sixth Master, this is the account that has just been searched, and now except for the gathering place of more than a dozen small leaders in the west that has not been searched, the rest have been searched. Zhao Shou stepped forward and placed a thick pile of rice paper on the edge of Xu Yi's table.

benefited from the exposure of Li Er and the big shopkeeper and others.

Xu Yishun touched the melons and uprooted all the nearly 100 large and small forces outside the Xuanping Gate.

No matter how deeply it is hidden, as long as there are traces to follow, it will always be exposed.

What's more, in order to seek speed and stability, Xu Yi did not prohibit the officials and soldiers from using all kinds of inhumane interrogation methods.

Xu Yi nodded and asked, "There are still more than a dozen small leaders in the west?"

Zhao Shou pondered for a few breaths and then replied, "There are thirteen more."

"There are five in Jingzhao Mansion, and eight soldiers guarding the city at Xuanping Gate." Xu Yi commanded calmly.

A trace of entanglement flashed on Zhao Shou's face, and he asked in a low voice, "Sixth Master, is there less for Jingzhao Mansion?"

Xu Yi chuckled and shook his head, and said, "There are a lot, and no more of them will fit in their pockets."

A touch of embarrassment flashed on Zhao Shou's face, and he said with a dry smile: "I understand the sixth master, so I will go down and order."

If you want the horse to run fast, how can you not give the horse grass?

Xu Yi is not inflexible.

On the contrary, they always have a scale in their hearts.

Corruption is such a thing, and no matter how harsh the laws are, the dynasties and dynasties have not been able to completely eradicate it.

Even if more than a dozen officials are skinned and filled with grass every day, it cannot be completely eradicated.

When the water is clear, there are no fish.

Xu Yi understands this truth better than anyone else.

Therefore, it always sticks to the scale in its heart.

That is, corruption is allowed, but it is not allowed to exceed a certain limit, and it is not allowed to engage in corruption on the basis of harming the people.

If it goes beyond this limit, it will be punished.

In addition, he can acquiesce to your corruption, and even tolerate your corruption, but you can't be corrupt and not do practical things at the same time.

What is the difference between such a person and a moth or a rat?

If this kind of person is not killed, will he still keep it for the New Year?

In addition to this, there is another important factor that is not enough to speak to outsiders.

Xu Yi looked at the empty huge tent, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but sneer, and two figures appeared in his mind.

One of them is Emperor Zhengde.

The second is Zhang Yongnian.
