Chapter 800: The Man Who Caught Toast
Take Zhang Jiuli's two daughters-in-law as an example, all of them are the daughters of Master Toast, and he also has two daughters who are married to Master Toast's son, so this guy can sit in this position because he has a good relationship with Toast, why can't the first two sit steadily?
It's because the relationship with Tusi is not good, it's hard to say whether he is involved in this matter, when the previous few officials were here, Tusi's army often went down the mountain to rob, but since he became this official, Tusi's army rarely came out.
Of course, Tusi's army rarely comes out, which does not mean that the life of the common people is better, according to the situation investigated by Li Xiang, this guy will send things to the mountains according to a certain amount every year, and his family is also married to Tusi, it seems that he wants to run this place into his own independent kingdom, but it is a pity that Li Xiang passed by here and shattered his thoughts.
"Lord Zhang is a smart person, the whole city is now rumored, but Lord Zhang's home is still very peaceful, Lord Zhang should understand what I mean, smart people should not need me to spend too much tongue talking, right?"
Li Xiang did not enter the door, but sat down at the door, brought a Taishi chair from the house, Zhang Jiuli and they knelt at the gate, this is the gap in power, you can be considered in front of the people, but if you meet a grandson like Li Xiang, then you can only kneel honestly.
"Weichen understands that His Royal Highness wants to solve the toast in the mountains in one fell swoop, and it is clear here."
What does Zhang Jiuli not understand? If it weren't for the fact that she had a good relationship with Tusi, maybe the whole family would have to be arrested on the first day, and now Li Xiang didn't say a way out, so this guy can't say it too clearly, and he has to wait for Li Xiang to make a statement.
"You're right, I heard that you have a good relationship with these toast masters, I don't care what kind of collusion you have with them, I just want to do one thing, that is, to exterminate them all, let the inside and outside set up the same official mansion, everything is in accordance with the rules of the imperial court, if you can help me achieve this goal, I will keep your family alive, but if it can't be achieved, you should know what I can do."
Regarding the territory of these Tusi, some people in the imperial court have also proposed that officials should be set up locally, but they all live deep in the mountains and forests, if you want to give orders on their land, then you have to subdue them all, but now we don't have this ability, after Li Xiang learned about this situation, he just took this opportunity to give it a try, so as to save the trouble for future generations.
After listening to Li Xiang's words, Zhang Jiuli did not say anything, Li Xiang's price has been opened, in the current situation, if he does not agree, then the whole family will definitely be beheaded, just by virtue of the crimes they committed, even if they kill three times, it is not too much, but the question is how to help Li Xiang achieve it? The toasts in the mountains are very fine.
"Wechen may not be able to do it."
After careful consideration, Zhang Jiuli shook his head directly, it's not that he doesn't want to live, the youngest grandson hasn't passed the full moon yet, who doesn't want to live, but the problem is that the price of deceiving Li Xiang is too great, he can make you survive but not die, Li Xiang does so many deadly things, you want to play him between applause, Zhang Jiuli thinks that he really doesn't have that ability.
"Yes, yes, in the end, he is a capable person, and he also knows how to weigh the pros and cons, and he did not make decisions without authorization because of the life and death of the whole family, then I have my thoughts, as long as you cooperate, then I can also spare the life of your whole family, but the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped, all the family property supermodels are successful, and all personnel will be assigned to Goguryeo."
Li Xiang's cold voice did not carry any emotion, for such a good thing, to be able to give them a chance to live, this is already against Li Xiang's principle, but in order to be able to solve these toast masters, for the sake of the survival of the people in the southwest, Li Xiang is willing to compromise once.
"Your Highness Xie, Your Highness Xie......"
Zhang Jiuli really shed tears at this time, when Li Xiang arrested people on the first day, he knew that the whole family might not have a way to live, those people were slightly better than what they did, but they were all the whole family suffered, and they were more than those people, what reason could they let their family survive? But today's words were said by Li Xiang himself, and Li Xiang's reputation is also the best in the entire Tang Dynasty.
"Then you do the first thing now, the toast masters also have their own messengers in Chengdu City, the first day I came, all the exits have been sealed, I guarantee that no one can get out, and no one can send the news out, you find out all these people for me."
Li Xiang's first order came out, and although Zhang Jiuli didn't know all the people, he also knew some of them, especially the contacts of several big toasts.
"There are not many people under Weichen who can be mobilized, please ask Your Highness to ......"
After Zhang Jiuli stood up, he thought that his people had been arrested by Li Xiang, and with this little person in the family now, I was afraid that there would be no way to arrest people for Li Xiang.
"Follow him on an errand, change into his men's clothes, and try not to kill anyone."
After Li Xiang's words were finished, hundreds of guards immediately took off their armor, then put on the clothes of Master Zhang's men, and followed him to arrest people throughout the city.
On the first day of Chengdu, when the arrest began, the shops had already begun to close, and the people were honestly staying at home, and the streets were very chaotic, and no one dared to go out at this time, but soon the people found out, as if the officers and soldiers only arrested the officials, and there was no harassment to them, ordinary people, and this matter had nothing to do with them, so many people opened their doors to do business again.
The most important thing is that many people have also felt the change, in the past, if you opened your door to do business, there were too many people on the street looking for you to collect protection money, the government had to collect a lump sum, and the gangsters on the street had to collect a lump sum, but since these officers and soldiers wanted to arrest people, the people who collected money could not be found.
Although the businessmen didn't know what to do with arresting people, they did feel that their lives were better, and they used to take out twenty yuan every day to send these people, but now they put twenty yuan into their own pockets, although the amount is not much, but it adds up to a lot, and it is a lot of money in a year!
