Liu Lin followed Zhen Yan to the study and saw Zhao Ping in the study. Liu Lin was startled and knew that Zhen Yan must have something important to say, so he asked Chen Dao to lead someone to wait outside the door and not allow anyone to approach.
, after arranging all this, Liu Lin sat down at the main seat in the study and said to Zhen Yan: "Master Zhen, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
Zhen Yan glanced at Zhao Ping, and saw Zhao Ping suddenly kneeling on the ground. Liu Lin glanced at Zhao Ping sideways and said nothing. Zhao Ping hurriedly looked at Zhen Yan, and Zhen Yan saw this and said sternly: "You
Do you still have to hide the good deeds you have done?" Zhao Ping was scolded by Zhen Yan and was immediately startled. He quickly said to Liu Lin: "I beg your Highness to forgive me!" Liu Lin didn't seem to see them.
The two of them just said indifferently: "What crime does Magistrate Zhao have that I want Gu to forgive?"
The more Liu Lin acted like this, the more frightened and confused Zhen Yan and Zhao Ping became. Zhao Ping gritted his teeth and said bravely: "I was forced by others to allow thieves an easy way to smuggle arms. I hope your highness will forgive me!
When Liu Lin heard this, he stood up and said in a deep voice: "I already know about this matter. You can tell me about it, which shows that you are quite aware of current affairs!" When talking about this, Zhen Yan and Zhao Ping did not understand.
I understand that Liu Lin already knows about this.
Zhao Ping's face was covered with sweat, and Zhen Yan was also frightened. Liu Lin ignored them and said calmly: "I don't want to know the cause and effect of this matter. You go to Yecheng tomorrow and report the matter to Governor Tian.
Although I can protect you from death, I think you are no longer suitable for the post of Wuji County Magistrate!"
When Zhao Ping heard this, his face turned pale. He quickly kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for forgiving me!" Liu Lin waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "I passed through Wuji County today and saw many people in the county harvesting grain. They were all filled with joy.
You look happy, and I also know that you are diligent and love the people, especially agriculture, and you are a qualified official. I appreciate your true nature of making decisions for the people. So, the Department of Agriculture and Agriculture is currently short of some officials who are familiar with the fields.
, after this matter is settled, you can go to the Department of Agriculture and Become a Zuocheng who measures acres!" When Zhao Ping heard this, his face was full of surprise. Seeing this, Zhen Yan who was standing aside quickly touched him gently.
After touching him, Zhao Ping suddenly woke up and kowtowed quickly: "Thank you, Your Highness, the sinner!"
Liu Lin glanced at Zhao Ping, nodded and said: "I hope you will not let me down!" Zhao Ping quickly kowtowed heavily and said: "The guilty minister must swear to serve your highness to the death!" Liu Lin signaled Zhao Ping to get up, and then he said
Zhen Yan said: "Master Zhen, Gu is tolerant to these people, but these people dare to treat Gu like this. Do they really think Gu is easy to bully?" After saying this, Liu Lin ignored the look on Zhen Yan's face and continued to say.
: "Let these people see Gu's methods this time!" When Liu Lin said this, he was filled with murderous aura, which made Zhen Yan and Zhao Ping too scared to speak.
Zhen Yan originally wanted to persuade him, but at this moment he also knew that Liu Lin came to Wuji County today. It seemed that he wanted to sound a wake-up call and ask himself not to get involved in this matter. If he continued to be ignorant, then maybe Liu Lin would find an excuse to come.
Clean yourself up, Zhen Yan broke into a cold sweat when she thought of this.
He quickly stepped forward and bowed: "Your Highness, the grassroots people listened to what Quanzi and Zhao Ping said. Now that the population of Jizhou has increased, many people are still displaced. Every time the grassroots people think about this, they feel very sad in their hearts. The grassroots people now have little land at home.
It is the inheritance of our ancestors, but despite this, ordinary people are still willing to dedicate nine out of ten of their family property to His Highness to help the people of the world!"
When Liu Lin heard this, a smile flashed across his face, but he secretly cursed the old fox in his heart. It seemed that he knew the purpose of his trip to Jizhou this time. He smiled and said to Zhen Yan: "Zhen Zhuang's act of loving the people makes Gu Gu I admire you. In this case, it would be disrespectful to do so! It’s a pity that there are so few people in Jizhou who can love the people as much as Lord Zhen!” Zhen Yan’s heart trembled after hearing this. It seems that what she expected was right, Liu Lin had already He knew what these aristocratic families were doing, and had been holding back just to let them drag more people into the water, and then catch them all in one go. He looked at Zhao Ping with lingering fear, and saw Zhao Ping looking at him, their faces The page was full of shock and emotion after escaping the disaster.
In September of the first year of Jian'an, Pei Xian, a Jizhou family, was reported by Zhao Ping for smuggling arms. Liu Lin was furious and ordered Tian Feng, the governor of Jizhou, to handle the case strictly. Zhao Yun, the general of Jizhou, mobilized troops to assist in the investigation of the case. After Pei Xian was arrested, he was quickly implicated. The Zhang family in Hejian, the Cui family in Boling, the Xu family in Qinghe, and the Zhao family in Guangzong received tens of thousands of weapons and supplies from their homes. What's more, they recruited children and used them to inspect the manors before the army. At that time, he confronted the army, resulting in the death of five soldiers and hundreds of injuries. In a rage, Liu Lin uprooted the four major families and implicated the nine clans for treason. They were all beheaded on the south gate of Yecheng, including men, women and elders. There are more than 4,000 children in total.
It was precisely because of the bright sun that the smell of blood lingered throughout Ye City for a long time, making people sick. The world was shaken for a while. All the wealthy families continued to curse Liu Lin, but the people applauded this, and Jizhou ushered in another There was a wave of immigration.
After the Jizhou incident, Liu Lin pointed the finger of the incident directly at Puyang. Because the arms smuggling incident was secretly operated by Cao Ang, the prefect of Puyang, Liu Lin personally led an army of 20,000 people directly into Dunqiu, approaching Puyang. He ordered Zhao Yun to lead an army of 30,000 people. Enter Licheng and head towards Dongping! The news that Liu Lin's army was marching into Puyang and Qingzhou quickly reached Cao Cao's ears. At this time, Cao Cao was confronting Liu Bei in Zhongmu County. Cao Cao was forced to abandon Zhongmu County and Yangwu. He retreated to Guandu, guarded by General Cao Hong with an army of 50,000, while he led the army to increase troops in Puyang!
