Chapter 430: Punishment of Officials

|,/$cA'YD%{"pF->lAyGt2}аYm的官府衙门之中。

Li Xiuyuan sat on the main seat as a rule, but he felt that the bookcase in front of him was too much of a hindrance, so he moved to the side.

At this moment, standing in the lobby was not the official in the yamen, but all the generals under his command.

Each of them is a person who leads a thousand soldiers, and their martial arts are all outstanding from the eight thousand dart masters, although they have not reached the martial arts master, but after a rush to fight, none of the eight have lost one, so it can be seen that their martial arts are strong.

A depressing, solemn aura permeated the yamen.

Li Xiuyuan's black armor didn't even have time to wash the blood, but he just took a little rest and was about to start taking over the governance and defense of the big city of Jinling City.

The civil and military officials in the city are either dead, or they have been imprisoned because they have surrendered out of the city before, and only a few civil servants remain.

And the scribes have no official position, and they are not qualified to come out and take charge of affairs.

"If you go outside, you must first settle inside, and first bring in Li Liangjin and other civil and military officials who went out of the city and surrendered, no, they are criminals convicted of fornication. ”

Li Xiuyuan had just finished instructing some scribes to stabilize the security in the city, and he immediately spoke.

"Yes, General. A sergeant outside the lobby answered, then turned to leave.

After a while, more than a dozen civil and military officials were escorted in.

Led by Envoy Yang, he was embarrassed and nervous at the moment, but when he saw Li Xiuyuan, he showed a hint of joy.

"It turns out that you are the one who led the troops? This officer thought that it was the general soldier who led the army, but I didn't expect it to be you, a showman, Li Xiuyuan, you really know the current affairs, and you know that you came to rescue the official, it seems that you also know in your heart that if the official dies, you will not be able to ask for benefits. ”

Admiral Yang reverted to his previous attitude and said with some arrogance.

"But for the sake of you rescuing the official, the official is not to blame for the previous things, now you only need to prepare a few fast horses for the official, let Zuo Qianhu escort the official, and escort Fu Tianqiu to the capital, when you get to the imperial court, the official will invite credit for you." ”

Li Xiuyuan looked at him calmly, ignoring his inappropriate words, and just said lightly: "You took them out of the city to surrender to the thief army before?"

Admiral Yang's face froze, and then he drank: "Li Xiuyuan, are you accusing this official? What this official wants to do, you can be held accountable, don't forget your identity as an official." ”

"Is the envoy of the imperial court?"

Li Xiuyuan said: "Of course I won't forget your identity, but I just want to know, the Great Song Dynasty has so far, but all the civil and military officials who defend the city have committed crimes and surrendered to the thief army, and how to deal with them?"

After speaking, he looked at a scribe next to him: "Mr. Duan Wenruo, you have been following Master Fu to deal with government affairs for many years, so you think it is very clear." ”

Duan Wenruo's face froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Of course this subordinate knows it, but all civil and military officials who want to surrender the thief army will be punished regardless of their rank. ”

"Admiral Yang, did you hear that?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"Presumptuous. ”

Yang Shang's envoy shouted inwardly: "Li Xiuyuan, do you know what you are doing? It doesn't matter if you offend me, if you offend my father, not only can you not be an official, but you also have to be careful about the safety of the family, I advise you, this matter is stopped, it is good for you and me, if you want to worry about this matter, this official is not afraid of you." ”

"I don't know how big an official your father is in the imperial court, whether he is a servant of the Six Ministries, or a scholar or a prime minister? But it doesn't matter to me, if you offend your father, you will be offended, but do you know what will happen if you offend me?" Li Xiuyuan stared at him coldly.

"If you offend me, you will suffer if you go to the underworld to become a ghost, and you will be in a dilemma of life and death. ”

"You surrender the city, just to live for yourself, disregard for the people of a city, don't say that the court doesn't spare you, even I don't spare you, don't say that you are just an envoy, that is, the prefect, the assassin history, and the general army can't get around, I called you here today to let you know why you died today, so as not to die in vain, and I thought I deliberately announced my personal vendetta. ”

Admiral Yang was shocked and said, "What? Li Xiuyuan, you dare to kill this official." You don't want to die, don't you, you are just a showman, and the matter of raising tens of thousands of private soldiers in captivity has not been mentioned by the official, and you dare to kill the official. ”

"Xiucai? I am no longer Xiucai, now I have entered the military rank, I am a guerrilla general, although I am a general with the smallest position, but I have the right to recruit and form an army without permission, and the crime of keeping private soldiers in captivity is not on the head of this general. ”

After speaking, Li Xiuyuan took out an official seal and showed it to these people.

"Why, how is it possible, you were clearly still a showman last month. Envoy Yang was angry and angry, and panicked in his heart.

Li Xiuyuan said: "This is thanks to you corrupt officials and corrupt officials, the price of buying and selling official positions has been clearly marked in the capital, and it is not difficult to buy a military position that is not to be seen, and a thankless guerrilla general's position." ”

"With the position of guerrilla general, an army of tens of thousands of cavalry is also overstepping. ”

Admiral Yang said again, he now hates those corrupt officials in his heart.

actually did such a thing as buying and selling officials.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I'm too lazy to discuss the issue of overstepping the system with you, even if it is overdue, you can't manage it, take this person down, and I'll go out and personally behead him later." ”

"Yes, General. ”

The two armor soldiers answered, and immediately escorted Yang Shang's envoy out.

Admiral Yang was completely panicked at this time, and he hurriedly shouted loudly: "Li Xiuyuan, do you really dare to kill this official? This official is an envoy sent by the imperial court, if you kill me, it is tantamount to rebellion, do you want to rebel?"

But seeing that Li Xiuyuan still had no intention of stopping, he cried and shouted again: "Everyone, save me, save me, don't let this Li Xiuyuan mess around, this official is dead, you are no better, hurry, save me." ”

The remaining dozen or so civil and military officials had different faces at the moment, and they wanted to speak but didn't dare.

They all knew in their hearts how big the crime of their previous initiative to donate the city was.

Even if it is spread to the capital and leaves, it will inevitably be killed.

"Wait. ”

A military attache who looked like a general suddenly spoke: "Is the guerrilla general Li Xiuyuan? You are just a dismissive general, and you should still be assigned by this general in terms of rank, and you are now killing the imperial court envoy without authorization, do you know how big your crime is?"

"Don't stop, let's get out first. Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and said, "Who are you?"

"Deputy Chief of Yangzhou. The military attache said.

"Deputy Chief Soldier, where are your soldiers?" Li Xiuyuan said.

The deputy commander-in-chief's face immediately sank, and he didn't know how to refute it.

"As a deputy commander-in-chief, there is not even a soldier by his side, what kind of general, do you think I will execute this Yang Shangsan today? I'm sorry, you, the deputy commander-in-chief, are also among them, come here, take him down and prepare to cut him. Li Xiuyuan waved his hand.

"Yes, General. ”|

Immediately two more armor soldiers walked in, pressed the deputy chief soldier and walked out.

The deputy commander-in-chief shouted: "Li Xiuyuan, you are a guerrilla general who dares to behead me, the deputy commander-in-chief, are you impatient, are you impatient, even if the general has no soldiers around him, and the position is above you, if you want to kill this official by His Majesty's holy decree, even the military department has no right to kill a deputy commander-in-chief." ”

"Killing you as a collaborator requires so many cumbersome procedures? Cut off your head first, and then make up the order of the imperial court to you, rest assured, I won't let you be unjustly killed." Li Xiu said from afar.

"Just a guerrilla general, you are asking for your own death, killing yourself......"

This deputy commander-in-chief was so angry that he kept shouting.

Li Xiuyuan glanced at the remaining dozen or so civil and military officials, and wherever his eyes passed, these civil and military officials were all silent and did not dare to squeak.

"It is impossible to forgive you, the court will not forgive you, and I will not forgive you, but I can give you two ways to die for you to choose. ”

"Please also ask the general to spare his life, we don't have the intention to surrender the city, everything is the attention of Envoy Yang, and the lower officials and others are just following orders, and I also ask the general to spare my life." ”

These civil and military officials turned pale with fright,
