Qin Luoheng raised his hand and said calmly: "What do you want to say? You are not on the list selected by the three major clans, so what information can you know? Don't waste too much time. If you really knew, you would have known it in the first place
I will be released by your parents."
"Drag it down!"
At this time.
Qu Bo and others finally changed their colors.
They noticed that Qin Luoheng really didn't care about their life or death, and he really didn't believe that they knew the news.
Qu Bo said hurriedly:
"Tenth Young Master, we really know."
"It's true that our parents didn't tell us before, but after their parents learned about our private conspiracy with Liu Ji, they told us all the information for the sake of the continuation of the family. We know where the slaves' sales contracts are.
"
"It is indeed in the city."
"And it's in the same tavern where we drank a few days ago."
"Tenth Young Master, you must believe us. We really didn't lie to you. We really know the news. Let us go."
"..."
Jingju and Zhaozhou also shouted.
His face was very frightened.
Hear the words.
Chen Ping and Qin Luoheng looked at each other, with a smile in their eyes.
At this time, Chen Ping waved his hand to stop Yang Wu from taking a few people away, and then said with his hands: "Sir, I think what they said is somewhat reasonable. The parents of the three major clans must not know what the final situation will be. For the sake of the continuation of the family,
You may not be informed of these situations.”
"In my opinion."
"Young master, you might as well believe it."
"Besides, the young master can just ask the heads of the three major families later. If they lie, they can be beheaded directly."
Qin Luoheng frowned slightly, a flash of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
But seeing Chen Ping's attitude and suggestion, he finally nodded and said: "Since you strongly believe it, I will keep them for a while, but I can't believe it. You tell me the news about these deeds first, and I will send someone
Go check it out."
"If it's true, it's not too late to discuss it."
Qu Bo and others nodded and said: "What we said is absolutely true. A few days ago, the clan learned that the young master was coming and had made arrangements early. However, time was urgent and the parents did not know when the others would arrive.
After realizing it, I didn’t dare to do too much and just moved these deeds to the city.”
"But we only learned about this information later."
"Furthermore, our parents recommended us to go to the wine house at that time. We thought at first that our parents wanted us to spend the last part of the trip well, but that was not the case. Instead, we wanted to use this opportunity to secretly transport the deed in a horse-drawn carriage."
"The noisy environment of the wine house makes it easy for people to relax their vigilance and hide the truth."
"I don't know where the deeds of the other two clans are at the moment, but my Qu family's must be in the wine house, and it is hidden in the cellar. But as the saying goes, the three cunning rabbit caves, the wine house opened secretly by our three major clans,
There certainly won’t be just one cellar.”
"thus......"
Qu Bo hesitated for a moment and then said slowly: "I actually don't know the specific location. I only know that it is probably in those wine houses. For the specific situation, I'm afraid the young master will have to search it."
"But everything I say is true. Young Master must believe it."
"Master, please spare my life."
Qu Bo knelt on the ground and begged.
Qin Luoheng frowned slightly, a look of concentration flashed in his eyes.
He actually didn't think that Qu Bo was lying. They had indeed heard some news, but after all, they were not the core disciples of the three major clans, so they only knew some general information. This was actually quite normal.
Qin Luoheng said: "I probably know the number of slaves under your three clans now. Please write down the approximate location first. I will trust you for the time being and won't find your parents in advance. But if the search finds a big gap between the actual number,
Then don’t blame me for being ruthless."
Qin Luoheng glanced at the people present coldly.
Qu Bo and others kowtowed repeatedly.
They have been shrouded in the breath of death and have lost their minds. They are like a drowning person who suddenly has a straw in front of his eyes, so he wants to grab this straw at all costs in order to keep himself alive.
Chen Ping took several blank bamboo slips from the case, and then handed them over to several people. He also thoughtfully prepared a plan for each of them. Soldiers were posted around to monitor them. Qu Bo and others naturally knew what this was.
I obviously don’t trust them, and I am also worried that they are colluding with each other.
But there was nothing they could do.
Several people picked up their pens tremblingly, looked around cautiously, and finally started writing on the bamboo slips.
The lobby is very quiet.
There was only a rustling sound of writing.
Qin Luoheng sat high on it, looking very calm.
I don't know what I'm thinking about.
Not long after.
One after another, some people stopped writing.
Chen Ping took back the bamboo slips of several people in turn, and after comparing them carefully, he nodded secretly to Qin Luoheng. The contents written by several people were similar, with little difference, and they had been paying attention to the pressure. Qu Bo and others
There is no chance for people to collude.
but.
Chen Ping would not be so gullible.
Qu Bo and others have been together some time ago, and Bao Buqi colluded at some point. Therefore, it still needs to be verified whether they are all involved.
Chen Ping presented the bamboo slips to Qin Luoheng.
Qin Luoheng didn't even look at it and pushed it aside perfunctorily.
The forehead said: "Since you took the initiative to recruit me, I won't embarrass you. It's just that whether what you wrote is true or false needs to be verified. If it is true, I can let you go, but after verifying the authenticity."
"but......"
"I can promise you."
"I won't tell your parents about this."
"If the content above is false."
"hehe."
Qin Luoheng sneered, the murderous intent in his eyes not concealed at all.
Qu Bo quickly said: "Young Master, please rest assured, we will never dare to deceive you with our lives. Every sentence we wrote is true, and there is absolutely no lie. You can go check it out, but we will tell you everything we know now."
Young master, please don’t tell us parents anything.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wen Yan.
A flash of meaning flashed in Qin Luoheng's eyes.
He certainly knew what Qu Bo meant. They didn't want to leave the decision-making power to their parents and wanted to save their own lives by recruiting them in advance.
Qin Luoheng nodded and said:
"Can."
"As long as your information is true, I can choose to keep you alive, but your three major clans only have this chance to survive. If you choose to survive on your own, it means that the rest of your clan will be executed."
"Have you thought about it?"
Qu Bo, Jing Ju and others looked at each other, with a hint of cruelty flashing in their eyes.
At a time of life and death, how could they be soft-hearted?
Several people said at the same time:
"We've thought about it."
"If the decision-making power is left to the parents, we will definitely not survive. We have already sacrificed enough to survive. We are really unwilling to die like this. I dare you to ask the young master for the sake of Liu Ji to choose
Leave us alive."
“We are so grateful!!!”
See the situation.
Qin Luoheng said no more.
Fluttering his sleeves he said:
"Take them down."
"When the situation is found out, I will give you priority in releasing you."
Qu Bo and others felt excited.
He quickly kowtowed and said, "Thank you so much, sir, thank you so much, sir."
At this time.
Yang Wu stepped forward again and took several people down, but this time they did not resist.
After Qu Bo and others were taken away, Qin Luoheng said slowly: "Chen Ping, do you think the information recruited by these people is true or false? Is there anything missing?"
Chen Ping cupped his hands and said:
"Go back to me, sir."
"The subordinates think it is true."
"We have a rough location now, and we will send someone to check one or two later. However, the subordinates don't know how much the parents of the three major clans will tell them. The subordinates think it is better to continue to interrogate the three major clans and compare the two sides.
The information given should be pretty accurate."
Qin Luoheng frowned slightly.
said:
"Now that we have some clues, you can take over the trial for the time being and let Meng Yi be responsible for searching these taverns and find the hidden deeds."
Chen Ping showed hesitation.
Qin Luoheng knew what Chen Ping was worried about.
Others spoke softly, and this trip took away Meng Yi's errand, fearing that Meng Yi would be dissatisfied.
Qin Luoheng said lightly:
"you do not need to worry."
"I will explain to Meng Yi."
"Meng Yi has a strong personality and is suitable for hearing ordinary cases, but his personality is easily exposed in such clichés. Even Meng Yi can understand this clearly."
"When dealing with the parents of the three major clans, we still have to resort to deception."
"These people are all old foxes."
"They will not speak easily without exerting enough pressure, especially since this involves hundreds of years of savings of the three major clans. They may not let go until the end, but now through Qu Bo and others, this matter has been
The matter has opened a hole, and as long as we continue to tear it apart, I believe the parents of the three major clans will speak out."
"He who knows the current affairs is a hero."
"The three major clans have fallen to this point. They should also know that the situation is over. The glory of the three major clans has long passed. No matter how stubborn they are, the three major clans will completely disappear. If the Qin Dynasty can destroy the Chu State, I dare to slaughter the three major clans.
Clan!"
Chen Ping was stunned.
He said in a deep voice: "I know what to do."
Qin Luoheng frowned slightly.
Chen Ping is a smart man. He knows what he should do and how to do it. Some things don’t need to be said too much or too thoroughly.
He got up.
After leaving the Shouchun County Government Office.
He was covered in blood and felt a little uncomfortable, so after explaining the matter, he took a hot bath and changed his clothes.
the other side.
As the Qin army entered the city, the already panicked city residents became even more panic-stricken. With the arrest of Huang Ji and others, and the team led by Meng Yi to search the tavern, the panic in Shouchun City became even worse.
But this is just the beginning.
While Chen Ping was interrogating the heads of the three major clans and Meng Yi began to search for the whereabouts of the deeds, Tao She was leading five thousand soldiers to hunt down the nobles of the Chu region along the way. Wherever they went, blood paved the way. This great purge...
It lasted for more than a month.
period.
Meng Yi dug out all the deeds of the three clans hidden in the wine house through the address revealed by Qu Bo and others, and found a mountain-like pile of land deeds, land deeds, and deeds of sale.
.
During this month, Chen Pingping and others had not slept a wink. They had been calculating the specific amount of the deeds collected this time. Moreover, as Tao She annihilated the other nobles, many deeds were also found, which made Chen Pingping
People are almost spinning.
Shouchun County Government Office.
Qin Luoheng sat high on it.
Tao She, Meng Yi, Chen Ping, Liu Ji and others ranked second.
Qin Luoheng's eyes swept across the audience, and when he saw Chen Ping and Meng Yi's thick dark circles, a flash of shame flashed through his heart. Arithmetic in this era is not easy. Although there are calculations as an aid, such a huge amount of calculations,
It’s also really a waste of energy.
When he noticed it, he actually thought about deducing the number.
But after much thought, I gave up.
Chen Ping and others are already very hard-working. If we ask them to understand numbers like 1, 2, and 3, not only will it not relieve them of the pressure, but it will actually increase the burden on you. After all, people who are used to calculating will suddenly have to
It is really difficult for them to master new things in a short period of time.
The workload is also increasing.
But having tens of thousands of deeds compiled and calculated one by one was really overwhelming. At least Qin Luoheng felt that he couldn't bear it.
Just writing Xiaozhuan in one stroke is very torturous.
Qin Luoheng coughed slightly, and looked back at Tao She. Tao She was a descendant of Uncle Tao of the Zhou Dynasty. He was born in the army. Later, he accumulated military merits and gradually served as the Tongcheng of the Shaofu. Now he is serving as the Great Qin Tianwang.
make.
But this time he was temporarily appointed as a general.
It can be regarded as a return to the old profession.
He asked: "General Tao, how is the situation with the rebels in Chu right now?"
Tao She cupped his hands and said:
"Go back to me, sir."
"After a month of pursuit, the Chu rebels have been defeated."
"And the Song and Tang clans that besieged the young master that day were almost wiped out. However, the leader of the Xiang clan was very smart and retreated in advance before we arrived. Although we almost caught up with them, they were not completely left behind in the end.
Down."
Qin Luoheng frowned.
Ning Sheng said:
"Does General Tao know the specific whereabouts of the Xiang family?"
Tao She looked hesitant and said hesitantly: "Based on the pursuit along the way, Xiang may have penetrated into Yunmeng Daze. Yunmeng Daze has continuous water and thick bushes, making it difficult to pursue. There were still people in Chudi at that time.
The other nobles needed to be cleaned up, so they did not continue the pursuit."
"But we also notified nearby counties and asked them to monitor closely."
"Currently, almost all the old aristocrats in the Chu region, except for the Xiang family who fled into Yunmengze, have been wiped out. There will no longer be these old aristocrats in the Chu region."
Tao She slightly arched her hands.
Qin Luoheng raised his forehead slightly and said, "General Tao She has worked hard these days. When I return to Xianyang, I will personally ask for merit for General Tao."
immediately.
He looked at Meng Yi and asked: "Meng Zuojian, you have been busy counting all kinds of deeds during this period. I wonder if you can finish the statistics? Meng Zuojian has been troubled during this time."
Meng Yi cupped his hands and said:
"Young master, you are serious."
"These are all matters for subordinates."
"Why bother talking about it?"
"Furthermore, with the help of Chen Ping, Xiao He and others, after more than a month of statistics, we have preliminary statistics on the relevant deeds."
"But the relevant data is really shocking."
"Even appalling."
"The three major clans alone have occupied 8.53 million acres of land. If other nobles are included, the number of civilian lands they have annexed is as high as over 30 million acres."
"This is more than half of the fields in Chu District!"
