It is said that the prince Mi Heng has not written to contact Xiong Wuliang for a long time.

Xiong Wuliang has never taken it to heart - they are all big men, so there is so much gossip to talk about?

If you have something, you can talk about it, and if you have nothing to do, you can do your own thing.

Isn't that normal?

Unexpectedly, the only letter after a few months was actually quite harsh! The letter criticized Xiong Wuliang for hurting the interests of the 'meritorious heroes', and asked Xiong Wuliang to stop changing the law, and let those academy students go back to school and return to the clan.

also asked Xiong Wuliang to release the Guo clansmen.

Xiong Wu is stupid!

Isn't that? Assassination and assassination is a felony!

If this can also be released, the whole 'past is not to blame', who will dare to work for Xiong Wuliang in the future?

Xiong Wuliang put down the letter, looked at General Jin, frowned for a long time, and then pondered the words and said: "Ben Hou already knows what the prince means, you should rest in the post house for a few days, and then report to the prince with Ben Hou's reply." ”

General Jin bowed his hand and turned to leave.

……

Qu Yuan saw the letter written by the prince to Xiong Wuliang, although there was no expression on his face, he was overjoyed!

"Lord, this must be the conspiracy of Zhao Ju and Guo Yu, who want to borrow the hand of the prince to interfere with the fiefdom and change the law." Qu Yuan said.

"If this matter is entangled for a long time, it will be detrimental to the reputation of the prince. It is advisable to make a quick decision, and then reply to the prince afterwards. ”

The relationship between Prince Miheng and Xiong Wuliang deteriorated, and Qu Yuan was happy to see it.

If the crown prince Mi Heng obeyed Xiong Wuliang's words, and the relationship between the two was irreversible, then how could Qu Yuan persuade Xiong Wuliang to ascend to the throne of Chu?

At present, Qu Yuan hopes that Mi Heng will reprimand Xiong Wuliang - it would be best if he could reach for Xiong Wuliang's money bag again, that is Xiong Wuliang's bottom line......

In the end, the Marquis of Quyang will follow the plan designed by Qu Yuan and step by step to the throne of the king of Chu.

Wouldn't it be beautiful to use iron-fisted means to reform the law throughout the country at that time?

Xiong Wuliang was completely unaware of Qu Yuan's 'ill intentions', and after listening to Qu Yuan's advice, he also felt reasonable: "Be cautious in passing on your orders - start the trial immediately!" ”

……

The evidence is conclusive - both human and physical evidence.

It only took half a day to turn the entire assassination into an ironclad case.

"Assassinating dignitaries is a taboo, and there is nothing more evil than this. According to the law, all adult men of the Guo family were to be executed, and women and children were confiscated as slaves. Shen Dao handed the document to Xiong Wuliang.

Xiong Wuliang pondered for a moment, and then slowly changed the verdict: "The Guo criminals who directly participated in the plot will be executed, and the rest will be punished for hard labor, so let's dig the sand." ”

Cautious and glanced at Qu Yuan: "The lord is kind-hearted, and I am equivalent to obey." ”

……

Guo's ending is already doomed.

This great clan, which has been inherited for hundreds of years, once dominated by the behemoth north of Huaishui, will collapse today.

The former glory and ambition have all come to naught under the iron fist of Quyang Hou.

The ironclad sergeants of the pro-military camp raided the entire Guo Mansion and took out a large amount of goods from the treasury - it is worthy of a powerful family that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and it is really rich. Pearls, jade, ancient swords, lacquerware, silk, ancient books...... The total value is around tens of thousands of gold.

For Xiong Wuliang today, there is no shortage of money to spend in the fiefdom, but such a large amount of goods still shocked Xiong Wuliang.

The powerful clan of Chu State has a time of obscene development that often counts for hundreds of years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a rich country!

It made Xiong Wu's conscience itch...... The other dozen or so clans now look very tempting......

In addition to these confiscated objects, the pro-military camp also counted the fields and shops owned by the Guo Mansion, which were also of high value.

Of course, these immovable properties were also confiscated by the Quyang Hou Mansion. The shops will be handed over to Song Zhe's chamber of commerce, either operated by themselves or exchanged for cash by means of auction; As for the land, it will be temporarily taken over by the Hou Mansion, and it will be rewarded to the meritorious soldiers in the future.

In a word-

Guo fell, unscrupulous to eat!

The peasants of Shansang County walk on the streets, and if they meet acquaintances, they always have to sigh a few words about the fate of Guo Fu-

"Have you heard about the Guo Mansion?"

"Huge mountain and mulberry city, who else doesn't know? I heard that the soldiers of the pro-military camp surrounded the Guo Mansion, and the goods inside were carried for several days......"

"I didn't expect this Guo Mansion, which has been in the limelight for hundreds of years, to fall when he said it!"

"The prestige of Quyang Hou is really extraordinary!"

"Guo Mansion is good! This Guo Mansion has a huge power, and how many evil things have it done over the years! ”

The vast majority of farmers and merchants applauded when they mentioned the outcome of Guofu.

The day of execution was set for the last day of September, and because of Xiong Wuliang's commutation, not many of the criminals were executed—if it was according to the prudent sentence, it would have been a lot of people.

On the banks of the Huaishui River, dozens of Guo descendants were bound and escorted out.

Those who can participate in the assassination plan are naturally the core of the Guo Mansion - these criminals are wearing red prison clothes at the moment, looking dejected - but if it was placed dozens of days ago, they were still famous big shots.

The onlookers around hummed and talked enthusiastically.

The patriarchs of the remaining dozen or so clans who had been forced to come to watch the execution widened their eyes in horror.

Presiding over the execution ground is Shen Dao, at this moment Shen Zhi is dressed in white, with a unique shape of the hedgehog crown on his head - the hedgehog, according to legend, is a kind of divine beast, straight sex, can distinguish straight and straight, if you see people fighting, then touch the evil and unreasonable with the horns.

This crown was made by King Wen of Chu and has always been worn by law enforcement officials, which means to punish adultery and eliminate evil.

The dignified and majestic prudence was so cautious that he held high the order flag and waved his hand.

Dozens of ironclad sergeants raised their iron swords in the air.

Guo Huai's lips trembled...... He wanted to straighten his spine and put on an iron-clad appearance of going to death, but it wasn't until he was escorted to the execution platform that he looked at the surrounding farmers and merchants who had been oppressed by him......

Guo Huai suddenly understood the weight of the sentence 'everyone in the country can be killed'.

Guo Huai let out a long sigh and lowered his head.

Swish!

Dozens of iron swords fell!

The patriarchs of the rest of the clans widened their eyes in horror - it was only then that they realized that Xiong Wuliang really dared to kill Guo Mansion!

Even the Guo family, which had two terms of Ling Yin and was dominant, was wiped out by Xiong Wuliang, how could they dare to go against Xiong Wuliang in the first place?

Afraid! Extremely afraid!

The patriarchs looked at each other, and their eyes were full of deep fear - they didn't dare to be Xiong Wuliang's enemy again!

As for the people at the bottom, they cheered excitedly, celebrating the fall of the Guo clan - this local overlord who had suppressed one side and exploited the poor for hundreds of years was finally wiped out at this moment!

Shen said loudly: "The Guo clan resisted the new law and assassinated the minister, and now they have been ambushed!" ”

"The second decree of the law change, the 'Fraud Detection Order', has achieved satisfactory results!"

"In accordance with the order of the lord and Quyang Yin, the third decree was launched - 'Juntian Order'! It will be posted on the city gates in the near future, and it is hoped that the officials from all over the country will recite it to the people as soon as possible. ”
