Chapter 462: Reckoning with the General Ledger
"The eunuch came from afar, he worked hard, Benzhou is here, thank the eunuch for the people of Xizhou, and then it's up to you, the eunuch." Tang Feng said with a smile.
Feng Zheng held the teacup, nodded, and said casually, "Well, our family is trusted by His Majesty, and coming to Xizhou to reconcile is what our family should do."
"Having said that, this Dongshan Marquis, our family has had a relationship with him in the Imperial City, looking at his personality, he shouldn't be like a villain with a rebellious heart, will Lord Tang be mistaken."
Feng Zheng spoke for Su Qi'an, I didn't know, I thought that the relationship between the two was very good and they had some friendship, or Feng Zheng was upright and just wanted to give both parties a fair.
If you really think so, then it is a big mistake, Feng Zhenggui is one of the four major eunuchs and a celebrity next to Su Xuanyong.
Compared with Wang Xian and Huang Feng, who died before, Feng Zheng is quite upright on the surface, and he looks fair and just, but in fact, this person is extremely greedy for money in private.
Whoever wants to ask him to do something is ready to be prepared for heavy bleeding.
Feng Zheng's accumulation of wealth is not like ordinary corrupt officials, who accept money when they see it, and have no scruples at all.
On the contrary, he is very cautious, often through dialogue, hinting at the other person, and the other party must understand his intentions and know what he wants.
Unconsciously, reining in the money, once the big grin, stupid direct money, not only don't think about doing a good job, don't think about asking Feng Zheng to do something in the future.
It is precisely because Feng Zheng has a good level of work, takes people's money, eliminates disasters for others, and does things very beautifully, so even if it is a heavy hemorrhage, as long as he can do things well, it is worth it.
Hearing Feng Zheng speak like this, Tang Feng hurriedly got up, stood in front of Feng Zheng, arched his hand, and looked like he was in tears.
"Eunuch, you don't know anything, what this Dongshan Marquis did in Xizhou was a real anger and resentment, and there was no one in Xizhou who didn't hate him."
"Because of his royal status, Benzhou tolerated him again and again, but instead of repenting, this person left Xizhou, developed his power in Jiaozhou, sent a large army to invade Xizhou, and captured my eldest son."
"Please also ask the chief eunuch to make a clear statement, the chief eunuch will be the master of the countless suffering people in Xizhou."
Tang Feng said that he was alive as if he was the biggest victim.
With his arms clenched into fists, he arched towards Feng Zheng again.
Feng Zheng got up, grabbed Tang Feng's arms, and groped his palms in Tang Feng's wide sleeve robe.
Feng Zheng looked at Tang Feng seriously, with a righteous and awe-inspiring look, "Since the state pastor has said so, our family wants to seek justice for the suffering people of Xizhou, not for anything else."
"As the saying goes, knowing people and knowing faces don't know their hearts, some people can't judge by one side, our family knows how to do it here, so please ask Lord Zhou Mu to put your heart in your stomach, and our family will definitely support you this time."
Tang Feng hugged his arms again, arched his hand and continued, "Then here, this state has thanked the eunuch for all the people of Xizhou."
Feng Zheng supported and nodded, and then, under Tang Feng's gaze, Feng Zheng left the room.
Tang Feng's tearful face showed a burst of pain, he lowered his head and glanced at his sleeve robe.
In the support and push between the two sides just now, Tang Feng had already hidden the prepared title deed in his sleeve robe.
In the tears just now, Feng Zheng had already taken away the title deed.
The two can be said to have made a seamless and perfect deal.
If there are outsiders present, they will definitely feel that it is a little too much.
After all, there are only two of them in the room, so there is no need to be so pretentious at all, it can be said that God knows, you know and I know.
But this is precisely what Feng Zheng has been doing for so many years, even if he has received a lot of money, he still has not been brought down.
Relying on his prudence, this kind of cautious transaction, regardless of whether outsiders are present, can at least ensure that Feng Zheng can get out of the way.
It will not fall into the hands of outsiders, even if it is found that he has a lot of money, but this thing, who can say clearly.
After all, no one will
Face-to-face identification, as long as there is no 100% certainty, the other party will be brought down, one more enemy is better than one more friend, this is the unspoken rule of officialdom.
Especially in the imperial court, there is such a popular person, they have not had time to stammer, where can they talk about being an enemy.
This time, in order to completely confirm Su Qi'an's rebellion, he wanted to be ruined, and Tang Feng called him a big hemorrhage.
The title deeds prepared this time are not ordinary title deeds, but the title deeds of three of the seven counties in Hanzhong County.
Except for the three counties and county offices, local wealthy families and other places, the rest of the places are all owned by Feng Zheng.
You must know that Hanzhong County is the granary of Xizhou, which is not an exaggeration.
Secretly transferring half of the land to Feng Zheng is much better than collecting money.
Compared with money, the title deed is more secure, Feng Zheng doesn't need to show up at all, and he doesn't need to prove that the land in the three counties belongs to him.
He just needs to be behind his back, waiting for money and food to be collected every year.
In order to completely bring down Su Qi'an, Tang Feng can be said to have paid a lot of money.
"Hmph, Su Qi'an, I'm here to see how you turned the sky this time!"
At this time, after three days of disinfection and cleaning, the ban in the city was lifted.
With the lifting of the ban in the city, one after another, the people who were hiding in Tibet gradually returned to the county town of Sichuan under the inspiration of Su Qi'an.
Today's Chuandu County is definitely not as lively as it was three years ago, but as long as Su Qi'an is here, the people in the city believe that Chuandu County will gradually recover, or even better than before.
All this is thanks to Su Qi'an's orders in the city.
In addition to carrying out disinfection and cleaning and opening porridge sheds, the people who returned to the county saw a relatively new thing.
What is it called the public trial meeting, in this kind of meeting, they met the *** of Chuandu County, along with the county guards, and even the officials of Xizhou.
They were bound and judged in public, and one by one they counted their sins.
Finally, according to the degree of the crime committed, according to the law of Da Liang, how to judge.
This scene shocked all the people who participated in the public trial conference, even if the conference was over, it could not be calm for a long time.
These officials, in their eyes, are high-ranking officials.
On weekdays, even if you see them, you have to kneel down and salute from a distance, and if you dare to look at them directly, you will have your eyeballs gouged out.
But now, these high-ranking officials will have such a day.
Being judged in public, and in front of them, this is absolutely unprecedented, unprecedented, and unprecedented, which is too shocking.
Moreover, in addition to judging these officials, this public trial conference also arrested the bullies and thugs who maliciously oppressed the people and rampaged the township in the past three years.
These arrested bullies, thugs, and villains, without any politeness, killed them directly.
The impact of this is enough to give those bullies who are hiding in the shadows and have not yet been caught, a considerable deterrent.
They knew that with the return of this Dongshan Marquis, the sky in Chuandu County was going to change completely.
The shock brought to them by the public trial conference was enormous, and it can be said that one after another.
Looking back now, what impressed them the most was not the severe punishment of these high-ranking officials, thugs, and bullies.
On the contrary, it is a sentence that Su Qi'an said, what is it called, from now on, Chuandu County, not only Chuandu County, as long as it is the place where he takes, there is no such high-ranking official, and the people at the bottom like them are the real masters, and they want to be the masters of the house.
Su Qi'an's words were a little difficult for them, and with their knowledge and thoughts, these words made them a little confused.
Although I didn't understand, General Su Qi'an's words, for some reason, made the people quite happy when they heard it, and there was a faint excitement of blood expansion.
And this is what Su Qi'an wants to see, he doesn't expect that relying on a so-called public trial conference, he can immediately change these perennial oppressions and rebellions
Obey the minds of the people.
What he wants is to plant a seed of rebellion in their minds.
Even if this seed is weak, and even decays within a few seconds, as long as it exists, it will leave a mark on their hearts.
As long as there is an imprint, as time passes, one thing he does in Xizhou, which accumulates more in the future, will definitely explode and be ignited at some point.
This kind of awakening, in Jiaozhou, Su Qi'an took three years to have some results, and for the people of Xizhou, it is impatient.
This time, Su Qi'an dared to hold a public trial meeting in every county that was taken, on the one hand, in order to leave some marks on the local people.
More importantly, to announce Su Qi'an's return, Xizhou, he Su Qi'an is going to be decided.
With the end of the public trial conference, good news also came from the war in Guangyang and Yong'an.
After Chen Zhi and Song Biao's continuous attacks, the defenders of the two counties knew that they could not wait for reinforcements, and finally chose to break through the city and disperse.
In this confusion, this method, although the losses were heavy, still allowed the defenders of the two counties to escape some people.
According to statistics after the war, the defenders of the two counties suffered more than 10,000 casualties each, and the remaining 10,000 people suffered 5,000 casualties, 3,000 prisoners, and 2,000 escaped in the breakout of the city. ap.
These defenders who escaped, without thinking about it, fled towards the rear Xizhou City.
Su Qi'an did not order the pursuit.
On the one hand, in this battle between the two counties, Song Biao and Chen Zhi also suffered casualties, about 5,000 people.
Second, when the two counties were taken, the most important thing was to consolidate and rest, rather than send troops to attack.
With the degree of defense of Xizhou City and Tang Feng's preparations, if the army is not assembled, it will most likely suffer a big loss just by dividing the troops to continue the attack.
At present, half of Su Qi'an's goal of taking Guangyang and Yongan counties has been achieved.
The three counties were taken, and Tang Feng's proud defense line was completely destroyed.
Next, it is to converge the army and carry out the final decisive battle with Tang Feng in Xizhou City.
After waiting for so long, it was finally time to settle the account, thinking of this, Su Yong, Xie Cang, Chen Dao, Er Meng, Song Biao and others were all enthusiastic.
