Chapter 661 Open the door and collect taxes

Those Jianghu people crossed the canyon. Chen Batian threw away the rope and was safe.

"Yang Gou, you must die a happy death!"

"You bitch slaves, how dare you come here to cause trouble? If we hadn't been prepared in advance, we would all have died here today."

"There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days, next time! Yang Gou, let's do it next time."

"Walk!"

Yang Xuan hugged the child and turned around to block the mountain wind, "Aliang is very courageous. He will definitely be lawless when he grows up!"

Zhou Ning's heart moved slightly, "Da Lang looks quite gentle."

Yang Xuan turned around and smiled, "Yes!"

He casually said that A Liang grew up lawless and that women have delicate minds, but Zhou Ning thought of rebelliousness.

In the future, he will not have only one son, but A Liang is the eldest son. The lawless eldest son will not be able to inherit the family business. At that time...

Yang Xuan thought of the harem during the reign of Emperor Xuande.

Honor the emperor as a prince, and the emperor and empress will be very satisfied.

But power is like poison, and even among these three people who are regarded as role models, there is still suspicion.

The tree wanted to be quiet but the wind was not stopping. Emperor Filial Piety felt that he had no second thoughts about his parents, so he didn't take it seriously even if he had some suspicions. But what he didn't expect was that behind the friendly smiles of his brothers and nephews, there was ferociousness.

Then he fell down.

Yang Xuan thought about it carefully many times. Even though he didn't know the specific situation at that time, he still felt that his father's downfall was inseparable from the suspicion of Emperor Xuande and Emperor Wu, and the viciousness of Li Yuan and his son was something he had not expected.

"A Liang!" Yang Xuan said with a smile: "You have to be smarter!"

Those Jianghu people ran frantically down the mountain, cursing Yang Gou as they ran. The woman who cursed the most fiercely was the eighteenth generation of Yang Xuan's family, as well as his wife, children, and children, and they were treated like pigs and dogs.

The more I scolded, the more excited I became. After getting excited, the fear gradually dissipated.

The woman's screams and curses accompanied everyone as they flew forward.

Chen Batian suddenly turned around and said, "You nagging woman, shut up!"

The woman scolded: "I'm going to scold you, what's the matter? You can't control it? I'm going to scold Yang Gou in the arena, scolding Yang Gou will lead to a bad death, scolding him...Chen Baxian, why are you so stupid?"

Chen Baxian suddenly stopped and stared blankly at the foot of the mountain.

So does everyone else.

"What are you looking at?"

The woman flew past.

Then a fall.

He screamed: "I'm talking about Yang Gou... Yang Shijun is too far-sighted to let you and others escape easily? Yang Shijun, old... I'm an insider! I'm keeping an eye on these rebels and waiting for the army to come."

Advance and suppress!"

At the foot of the mountain, hundreds of sergeants held crossbows, and hundreds of cavalry were waiting on both sides.

Covered by crossbows and arrows, covered by cavalry...

My mother!

How the hell do you live like this?!

Uda shouted: "Drop your weapons and kneel down!"

The woman was the first to drop her weapon and kneel down.

Amidst the clanging sound, most people in the arena knelt down.

"Yeah yeah I'm not convinced!"

Chen Baxian grabbed the woman with one hand and blocked her in front of him, roaring and rushing forward.

"Fire the arrow!"

Several crossbows were fired, and the woman was hit by three crossbow arrows. She howled and cursed: "Mr. Chen Ba, you will not die well." Then she started to struggle. Gradually, her strength became weaker and weaker, her screams became smaller and smaller, and her head tilted.

, the hands and feet dropped weakly.

Chen Ba first hid behind and approached quickly.

"Fire the arrow!"

This wave was a volley of dozens of crossbows.

Chen Baxian, who was hiding behind, was so tall that he couldn't stop the woman after her hands and feet dropped.

He was hit by several arrows, one of which penetrated the sole of his foot and nailed it to the ground, causing him to stop moving forward. He pulled hard and actually pulled his foot off the crossbow arrow.

"Ouch!"

Chen Ba first howled miserably, and then an arrow hit his left arm. The woman fell to the ground, and he was exposed to the crossbow.

"Kill him!"

Uda said lightly.

Two cavalrymen rushed over on horseback.

Chen Baxian was hit by several arrows and roared.

The spear passed through his waist and lower abdomen, and the two cavalrymen lifted Chen Ba up first.

"Spare my life!"

All the rebelliousness turned into fear under the intimidation of the army, and most people burst into tears. If their names were reported, people in the world would be shocked.

No matter how tough or heroic, at this moment, they are all iron materials in the great furnace of official law, which can turn into water in just two strokes.

The heroes who had been shouting the most fiercely before were now rushing to talk about the origins of their companions on this trip.

Yang Xuan and his wife continued to play on the mountain and had a picnic before slowly going down the mountain.

The eldest young master had already fallen asleep. Zhou Ning got on the carriage. Yang Xuan handed the baby in and whispered: "Take a nap!"

"Um!"

Zhou Ning took the child and smiled back.

Regarding the minor conflicts between the children in the future, they disappeared immediately.

But Yang Xuan knew that this conflict would pop up from time to time in the years to come, requiring him to mediate, and his wife and children to mediate together.

But just thinking about it gave him a headache.

Otherwise, just let it go?

Yang Xuan thought it would be easier to just have a mother-in-law.

But he knew that if he proposed this idea, Cao Ying and Yiniang would most likely think he was crazy, and then hire someone to dance for him.

Aning will be better, but I will only think that he is demented. Demented men should be optimistic. As for revolting against the great cause, put it aside, we will live like this for the rest of our lives!

For Zhou Ning, fighting against rebellion is a sudden responsibility. If she were to choose, she would definitely choose to let Yang Xuan forget this responsibility.

People!

Yang Xuan turned around, and a group of Jianghu people were kneeling behind him. He made a hole in his shoulder, tied it with a rope, and when he pulled it, everyone screamed and howled.

It's like hell!

Yang Xuan was impatient, "What other accomplices in the city, the one who talked the most, are allowed to atone for their sins!"

"There is Liu Mazi, who sings the mistress..."

"Zhang Lu, my mother-in-law, you speak so quickly!"

Everyone was talking about the accomplices they had discovered. Some were even willing to lead officers and soldiers to round up those rogue gangs. Others were willing to use their treasures to atone for their sins. When they opened their mouths, there were actually quite a lot of them.

"It's all hard-earned money, but it's the blood and sweat of the victims!" Yang Xuan nodded, someone will deal with these rich people later!

"Whip!" Yang Xuan stretched out his hand, and someone immediately handed over the whip. When Yang Xuan saw it, it was Wang Laoer.

The second child is still considerate.

Yang Xuan went over with the whip, not distinguishing who was who, and just whipped along.

Amid the miserable howls, Yang Xuan cursed breathlessly. From Shenghe to his disciples, the ancestors who were scolded by him would most likely die with their eyes open.

"Mr. Lang curses a lot of new words, what are they funny, what...what do they mean?" Wang Laoer asked.

"I don't know either." The old thief scratched his back with his backhand, "Lang Jun looks very angry, these people are going to be in trouble."

Yang Xuan threw down his whip and returned with a group of prisoners.

Immediately, there was chaos in the city, and groups of people walked out.

"Where to go?"

the sergeant guarding the gate asked.

"Go back and restock, hahaha!" the man laughed.

"Good to go!"

"Easy to say, easy to say, I'll come back later."

As soon as the man went out, he was held down by two big men. Someone said: "You have cultivation!" Then he was slapped unconscious and thrown aside.

Just like this, not long after, hundreds of people were missing outside the city.

"No more?"

Zhang Xu asked.

The sergeant and clerk guarding the door shook their heads, "It must be gone."

After being tortured and interrogated, hundreds of people put on pipa bones and paraded through the streets, attracting a crowd of spectators.

"A hundred people were tortured and did a lot of dirty things. Most of them deserve to die, and the rest are not good people either."

The old thief came to report, but Yang Xuan didn't smell the blood and asked, "You didn't do anything?"

The old thief said proudly: "Pan Sheng can now stand alone and can cut flowers out of one leg. Recently, the woman at home has made some fragrant things. It is not appropriate for me to go back with the smell of blood."

"Damn it, kill them all." Yang Xuan had no mercy for such scum, "The rest came to Lin'an and wanted to kill my wife and children, so throw them all to Fengzhou."

"Mining? How long?" the old thief asked.

"lifetime."

Boss Yang got angry, and on the second day, the gangsters were dragged to the outside of the city and knelt down. Behind each of them were two sergeants, one guarding and the other taking action.

The supervising officer was Wu Da. He looked up at the sun and muttered, "The gentleman said that he wants noon time, but I don't know what the rules are."

At noon, the sun is blazing.

Uda yawned and waved his hand lazily, "Cut!"

Swinging the sword horizontally.

In the city, the few remaining Jianghu people gathered together, their faces as pale as paper.

"Yang dog is scary, we shouldn't come!"

"Those idiots think they are superb in martial arts, but they don't know that what Yang Gou uses is the art of war... Who said that in the first place, some famous general of the Tang Dynasty, just wait to drink my foot-washing water! Where did that woman go?"

"I knelt down and begged for my life, so I went down to drink Meng Po soup."

"Damn it, I was also alarmed by the five hundred thousand dollars at that time. I thought it would be a good idea to come and watch the excitement. Hey! Fortunately, I was just watching the excitement, otherwise we would all be dead now."

Several old Jianghu queens were extremely frightened.

"Go back!" a man said.

"Wait a little longer and leave when the wind subsides."

Knock knock knock!

Someone knocked on the door.

"Who?"

asked a charlatan.

Someone outside the door said: "Tax collector."

"What tax?"

"Imperial Food and National Tax! Open the door!"

Boom boom boom!

The door is being kicked in outside.

"Damn, these little officials are so lawless."

A charlatan went to open the door.

The door opened, and more than ten sergeants poured in, each carrying a sword and a shield.

The leader, Yue Er, said: "Someone reports you for tax evasion, come with us!"

"We didn't... ow!"

After slashing the man down with the back of his sword, Yue Er cursed: "If you dare to talk back, your crime will be increased!"

Everyone stood up slowly and knelt down, "I'll wait and plead guilty..."

"take away!"

Lin'an city was bustling with activity for several days, but the two fish that slipped through the net that approached Zhou Ning's mother and son that day were never caught.

Chen Long refused to speak despite being tortured in prison.

The day before Yang Xuanzhen was about to go to Taoxian County, a woodcutter discovered two corpses on the mountain.

"They are all rotten, but you can tell they are the two men and women." Uda led people to get the corpses back, and they were all smelly.

"Go and wash up, wash up carefully, otherwise you won't go to Tao County. Wait, how did you die?"

Yang Xuan was a little curious, thinking that at this time of year in the mountains, people would not starve to death in a short time!

Uda said: "The man was stabbed to death from behind. By the way, the man was naked and the woman was wearing clothes. The woman was hanged from a tree."

Someone went to the prison and told Chen Long what happened.

That night, Chen Long bit off his own tongue alive. He was seriously injured, but now he was hopeless, and he passed away at dawn.



In Taoxian County, when Yang Xuan arrived with his people, he happened to meet Zhang Du returning from the city with Xuan Jia riding out for training.

"Zitai,"

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and exchanged greetings.

"There are more and more scouts in Beiliao. Lao Jiang recently led the rangers to clear out the enemy. Once, he was almost ambushed. Fortunately, Lao Jiang was more thoughtful and left his men and horses to follow. A guy came to attack from a flank and won a big victory."

Jiang Cunzhong looked more and more steady now. When he saw Yang Xuan in the Jiedushi's house, he held his hands solemnly at first. Yang Xuan was frightened and quickly returned the gift, feeling a little uncomfortable that he had lost a friend.

Jiang Cunzhong had a cold face and whispered: "I'm going to the brothel later. I'm all ready. They're girls from Beiliao. They're fresh! I'll leave you with a big ass."

Ahem!

Old Liu walked out of the check-in room on the side.

"I've met Sima." Yang Xuan saluted.

"Why did you come here today?" Liu Qing said with a cold face.

"I wanted to come earlier, but someone..."

After learning about the reward of half a million dollars, Huang Chunhui waved his hand and said, "Don't think about it. Many things, if you don't take them for granted, you will be defeated. Those who are hiding behind will be exposed sooner or later. When the time comes, Xin

All old accounts have been settled together."

"Are your wife and children okay at home?" Liao Jin asked.

"It's okay. I strangled more than a hundred Jianghu people. I guess I'll have to be careful about what I eat when I go out from now on."

Yang Xuan smiled boldly.

"What are we afraid of?" Huang Chunhui coughed dryly, "I just don't want to deal with the Jianghu. If I really want to suppress it, I can slap it flat with a slap."

This is true.

Yang Xuan immediately reported the specific situation of the battle with Tanzhou, and specifically mentioned He Lianrong's behavior of using tribal warriors as cannon fodder.

"What do you think?" Huang Chunhui asked.

Yang Xuan said: "Tanzhou is just a corner, which shows that the Northern Liao Dynasty is quite harsh on the tribes below. This is an important discovery. If the Tang Dynasty goes to the north in the future, it can use this to instigate those tribes... to create civil strife."

"A natural handsome man!" Huang Chunhui pointed at Yang Xuan and said with a smile: "Most people know this because they think of the upcoming war, but he thought that decades later, if this is not a handsome man, what is a handsome man?"

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

"The war is about to begin." Huang Chunhui took a sip of warm water and said, "Zitai, don't go back."

Yang Xuan raised his eyes, "Ms. sir..."

Huang Chunhui smiled, "After this battle, I will definitely become an official, otherwise, the world will be in chaos."

If this battle is won, Huang Chunhui's prestige will be at its peak. If he does not become an official, Chang'an will regard him as a traitor. Maybe the false emperor will detain his family and force him to leave northern Xinjiang and go to Chang'an to plead guilty.

A false emperor can do such a thing!

You are an old man, and you have no heir to your rebellion. Who are you rebelling for?

As for letting Yang Xuan stay, it means letting him familiarize himself with the overall situation of Northern Xinjiang and Taoxian County in advance.

But there is still work to be done if Yang Xuan is to be promoted to the throne after the war.

However, this is a good start.

"Yes." Yang Xuan nodded.

Huang Chunhui smiled and said: "Having a banquet later can be regarded as catching the wind."

Yang Xuan stood up and saluted in all directions.

This day.

Still here!

He took a deep breath.

I feel like I'm not prepared.

but.

It seems that everything is ready again.

Have no fear!
