Nine hundred and fiftieth chapters into the prison
While Huang Shuren and Jin Yibei were acting with Lu Bian and Dou Shihai, Wang Junlin also entertained the heads of thirteen noble families from the three counties south of Fanyang County as planned. Except for Liu Ziming from Wang Junlin's line, everyone else
In addition to Hui Hui and Shan Xiongxin, Wang Junlin also specially invited Xue Li, general of Yingyang Prefecture, and Sun Yang, general of Tongshou, to attend.
Wang Junlin was a little worried about whether Huang Shuren and Jin Yibei could perform this scene well, and whether Lu Bian and Dou Shihai would follow the script he planned, but in his mouth he was worried about Xue Li, who was sitting on his left
Chat casually.
Tongshou Sun Yang took advantage of his drunkenness and sat down on the right side of Wang Junlin. He leaned forward and suddenly said to Wang Junlin with a smile: "On your way to take office in Fanyang County, my lord, five thousand pirates raided, and the three counties in the south suffered from war.
The people were robbed of a lot of property and food by the pirates. Even the families sitting here suffered heavy losses. I heard that even the children of each family were robbed by the pirates! The official thought that the three counties in the south should rest and recuperate with the people, hmm...
… I went to the Lu family a few days ago. Mr. Lu intends to ask for exemption from the imperial court and exempt the three counties in the south from paying taxes on food and money for three years. Of course, Fanyang County is the prefect who has the final say after all, so the prefect should ask for exemption from the imperial court for this matter. I think this
how?"
Wang Junlin's face suddenly darkened, thinking that if the thirteen nobles from the three counties present here did not know about the relationship between the pirates and the Lu family, and Sun Yang gave these thirteen people a sweet date on behalf of the Lu family, these thirteen people might be right.
The Lu family is quite grateful. Some previous conflicts over land and business will be alleviated, and eventually they will be further divided and cannibalized by the Lu family.
A few days ago, the big boat sent the children of thirteen aristocratic families in the three southern counties home. It was deliberately done secretly at night. The children who returned from each family were also told by Nie Xiaoyu to hide at home and not show up for the time being. Each family also kept it secret from the outside world.
.So Sun Yang and Lu thought that all the hostages and pirates were killed by the navy on Snake Island.
Lu Bian asked Sun Yang to ask Wang Junlin's opinion in public at the banquet. If Wang Junlin had not rescued the children of the thirteen noble families, his intention would naturally be evil.
If Wang Junlin opposes the reduction or exemption of money and food, he becomes a bad guy and allows the Lu family to win the hearts of the three southern counties and makes thirteen noble families owe them favors; if Wang Junlin agrees, Fanyang County's tax revenue will be reduced within three years.
Nearly half, while Emperor Yang Guang and the court are waiting to spend the money, at this juncture the local officials who are most angry about the reduction in tax revenue will naturally be extremely dissatisfied with Wang Junlin."
"Master Sun, don't you know that I and the Lu family are at odds with each other? Do you really think that I can't do anything to you?" Before Sun Yang could respond, Wang Junlin slammed his chopsticks on the table.
He looked at Sun Yang with a cold face and suddenly shouted: "Come here, Sun Yang colluded with the Lu family to buy and sell officials, resell private salt, and appoint private individuals. He will be thrown into prison immediately!"
Wang Junlin specially wore official robes tonight, and he had been gentle and pleasant from the beginning. Who would have thought that he would suddenly fall out and send the second-in-command of Fanyang County, Master Sun Yang, who was promoted from the fourth rank, to prison.
Sun Yang's face changed, and he was extremely frightened, but he was also very angry. He stood up and shouted: "What do you mean by the governor? I am the governor of a county. Even when there was a state capital before, the governor wanted to let him go."
The imprisonment of a commander-in-chief must be approved by the court, but the governor must have forgotten that he does not have this power!"
Wang Junlin sneered and said: "Master Sun and Mr. Lu don't know yet! Your Majesty sent an angel to deliver a secret decree to me a few days ago, granting me privileges. From me on down, as long as the evidence is solid, I can behead first and report later.
"
"Secret decree..." Sun Yang looked incredulous. He really didn't know about the secret decree. Lu didn't inform him, but the three-year tax exemption for the three counties in the south he just mentioned was actually his initial plan to invade the south.
When they were in the third county, Lu made a plan to deal with Wang Junlin, and he just followed the plan.
"Come here, take the prisoner Sun Yang down and put him in the county jail. Shan Xiongxin, please arrange for someone to watch him personally. No one can visit the prison." Wang Junlin didn't bother to talk nonsense with Sun Yang. He could just take the Lu family in
The representatives from the county government guarded Sun Yang, which was the first benefit of the secret decree he obtained from Yang Guang.
Of course, this time was deliberately chosen to capture Sun Yang, but it had three additional purposes. First, it was to further convince the Lu family that he was unaware of their plan to murder Dou Shihai on his birthday. Second, it was to further strengthen the belief of the three counties in the south.
The heart of the head of the three noble families, let them feel him up close
The third is for Xue Li to see. Wang Junlin was able to completely eradicate the Lu family and Dou Shihai, who had colluded with the Lu family for many years, but he could not deal with Xue Li in this way. On the one hand, Xue Li was Yang Guang's confidant, and on the other hand, he was Yang Guang's confidant.
With Xue Li's presence on the side, Yang Guang would not suspect that Wang Junlin had different intentions in Fanyang County. In this way, Wang Junlin could do many things that could be called treason.
Seeing that Sun Yang, the Tongshou with the same official rank as himself, was easily captured by Wang Junlin, Xue Li's expression changed several times. In the eyes of Wang Junlin, Wang Junlin even looked down upon him, thinking that he was the right person in Fanyang County.
He needs this kind of ability, but his methods are not good, his character is bad, he has no palace, but he is Yang Guang's trusted general Ying Yanglang.
Wang Junlin no longer paid attention to Xue Li, but secretly observed the expressions of the heads of the thirteen noble families in the three counties in the south. These thirteen people all looked happy and happy. It was obvious that they had been bullied by Sun Yang in the past. Of course,
Then he looked at the prefect with more awe in his eyes.
At this time, among the thirteen people, there was an unattractive man who looked to be in his forties. He left the case and knelt down in the hall. He shouted loudly: "The pirates invaded the three counties to the south of us. Most of the county soldiers are controlled by the Lu family. We are waiting for them."
The families and villagers are weak. Although our hometown was plundered by pirates and the losses were considerable, now there are adults who have come to our Fanyang County with the emperor's orders to serve as parents and officials. They treat me like a piece of rain. If there is still greed in reducing or exempting money and food, it is really shameless.
How can I show my face to the world? Please never mention the reduction or exemption of money and food. Not only can't you reduce or reduce money and food, I have discussed with other families and asked you to increase the amount of money and grain to be used in peaceful areas to prevent pirates.
.”
Perhaps because of Xue Li's presence, there were many words in this person's words. He did not say that Wang Junlin sent someone to rescue their nephew, but his gratitude was very clear.
With this person taking the lead, the heads of the other twelve noble families also left their seats and knelt down in the hall to kowtow and ask Wang Junlin not to reduce taxes but to increase them.
Although everyone hopes to be exempted from crime and food, smart people all know that at this time they have been tied to the same boat as the prefect. There is no other way except to fight to the death with the Lu family, so for the prefect
What should be supported should still be supported.
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju
