Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty
Vol 2 Chapter 1347: Kill, punish!
"Boy here!"
In the Ganlu Temple, after Li Erfeng had appreciated Meng Wenhao and Li Yu, it was the iron egg's turn.
Meng Wenhao and Li Yu stepped back and gave up their positions to Tiedan.
Li Er looked at the iron egg and slowly said, "Han Li, this time Zhengzhou is quelling the rebellion. Not only did you cooperate with Meng Wenhao to use the telegraph to transmit information, but you also attacked Guancheng County on the night, killing the Cui family worship hall. Master Xiaohuan, this hut is also one of the most wanted criminals in Dali Temple in the past few months. I didn’t expect you to be cut under the sword. It deserves a great reward! I decided to appoint you as Deputy Lieutenant Renyong and reward you for fifty. match!"
"Thank you for your reward!"
The iron egg arched his hands and said lightly.
His complexion didn't fluctuate much, because his ambition was not in the aspect of being an official. In this life, he just wanted to follow Li Zexuan and learn his skills well, so as to protect his family in the future!
Unexpectedly, Li Er did not let Tie Dan and others retreat, but continued:
"I heard that Xinghuan is also a well-known master in the rivers and lakes. In the end, you can be cut by the sword. He is really a hero! Your father accompanied the imperial army and fought against the Turks in the north for several years, fighting bravely. , Killed countless enemies. At a critical time, he saved Qin Aiqing's life with his own defense. Later, I also heard about him.
Although your father violated military discipline, there was a reason for it, and he left alone because he didn't want to drag the army down. Therefore, I will call the shots today to save your father from the crime of fleeing the battle, and then add your father as Deputy Lieutenant Zhaowu! "
Li Er, who had won the battle, was very enthusiastic, and he wanted to amnesty the world. It was surprising that Han Tianhu's old cases were turned over by him.
Hearing this, Tiedan was full of surprises. It can be said that this is a regret in his heart all the time. Han Tianhu is a great hero in his mind, but the hero has not received the treatment he deserves. He has been regarded as a deserter. Now finally Tie Dan was even happier than he was awarded the reward. He clasped his fists in excitement:
"Han Li, on behalf of his father, thank your majesty for the reward!"
"Yeah! Let's retreat first! Since the meritorious minister has been rewarded, the next step is to punish the guilty minister!"
Li Er nodded in satisfaction and waved to them to retreat.
The award ceremony officially came to an end, Li Er's eyes sank, and his voice was cold: "Liu Dewei!"
Liu Dewei, the priest of Dali Temple, gave a solemn expression, and said: "The old minister is here!"
Li Er said in a deep voice: "I asked you a few days ago to thoroughly investigate the suspicious officials' collusion with the enemy and traitor, how is the progress?"
Upon hearing this, the officials in the palace couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, thinking that Lao Li was going to turn over the old account!
Liu Dewei arched his hands solemnly and said: "My Majesty, these days, Dali Temple has tried 42 criminals in conjunction with the Criminal Department and Yushitai, and confirmed that there are 38 officials in secret. The Qinghe Cui family, the Xingyang Zheng family, and the Boling Cui family secretly informed that most of these people were direct descendants of these three families, and some were former followers of these three families.
The other four officials are telling Fan Yanglu's family that the court is preparing to encircle Zhengzhou! In addition, the veteran also found out that there were twelve officials who were their accomplices. Since they had not had time to spread the letter, they noticed that the people of Baiqi were lurking in the dark, but they were confessed by the others. come out! "
"Fan Yang Lu's? Lu Sidao, what do you have to say?"
Li Er's eyes flashed, he looked at a minister in the hall and asked.
An old man with white beard and hair walked out tremblingly. This person is the contemporary Patriarch of Fan Yang Lu's. After news of the rebellion in Zhengzhou spread all over the world, he came to Chang'an City a few days ago and was loyal to Li Erbiao.
Lu Sidao arched his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has never let anyone pass a letter to the Lu family. The Lu family lives in Fanyang and has absolutely no intention of disobedience! After learning of the Cui family rebellion, the old minister even wanted to take all the servants of the Lu family. , Went to quell the rebellion for your majesty, but when he just set off, he heard that the king had used the power of thunder to destroy the rebels, so he had to give up! But the Lu family’s loyalty to the court is definitely a lesson from the sun and the moon.
Li Er was speechless, and Lu Sidao's push of June 25th did not admit that the officials were related to the Lu family. He could not treat the Lu family because of this. So he looked coldly and said: "Lu Jiazhong is not loyal. I will let people find out about the matter. Liu Dewei listened to the order. All the offenders who collided with the enemy this time were all removed from official positions and assigned to Youzhou, so that they would guard the border for me!"
Defending the border means a life of nine deaths!
Since Li Er came to the throne, few officials have imposed such severe punishments on officials. Like Wei Zheng at the time, although he was the number one conspirator under Li Jiancheng’s account, and several times suggested Li Jiancheng to assassinate himself, but after the Xuanwu Gate changed, Li Er Regardless of the predecessors, Wei Zheng was activated, which shows that Li Er's heart is big!
But now these dozens of officials are different in nature from Wei Zheng. They are collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. If they succeed, the Cui family will attack Luoyang in advance before the imperial army arrives in Zhengzhou. The imperial court has brought immeasurable losses!
This is something Li Er cannot bear.
"Old ministers follow the order!"
Liu Dewei arched his hands and said.
Li Er's eyes flashed, and then he said, "Where is Liu Zheng?"
Liu Zhenghui was born in the Liu family of Henan. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Liu Zhenghui served as Sima of Yingyang Mansion in Taiyuan. Later, he led his troops to join Li Yuan's command and was sent to Taiyuan to report Wang Wei and Gao Junya's rebellion and serve as Taiyuan Yuanmou heroes. After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, he was ordered to stay in Taiyuan and manage the rear. After Liu Wuzhou captured Taiyuan, Liu Zhenghui was captured and remained loyal and unyielding. After being rescued, he served as Shangshu of the Criminal Department of Datang.
"The old minister is here~!"
In the civilian camp, an elderly official walked out and said to Li Ergong.
Li Er asked in a deep voice: "Cui Junchuo, Zheng Shuwu, and Cui Wenji were rebellious and rebelled against the court. According to my "Law of the Tang Dynasty", what should be the crime?"
Liu Zheng met his face and arched his hands expressionlessly, and replied: "My Majesty, treason is the death crime of the Jiu Clan! Cui Junchuo engulfing hundreds of thousands of people in Zhengzhou is a capital crime among the death crimes~!"
Baiguan felt a chill in his heart, capital offense, and now the total number of death inmates executed for capital offenses in the entire Tang Dynasty is only 20 to 30. The main reason is that after the war in the end of the Sui Dynasty, the population of the Central Plains plummeted. Instead of killing death inmates, It's better to let these condemned prisoners be exiled to a barren land like Qiongzhou to open up wasteland, it can be considered as a contribution to Datang!
Now, if Li Er executes all the children of the three rebellious families to death, then Chang'an City will be truly bloody!
Li Er thought for a while, and said: "Put the culprits Cui Junchu, Zheng Shuwu, and Cui Wenji to death row, and ask them to be killed! Zhengzhou governor Pan Zhenyue and Zhengzhou Zhechong Mansion Captain Cui Quan have acted for tigers, conspired to commit crimes, and deprived them of their official positions. Put to death immediately! All the direct descendants of the Qinghe Cui family, Xingyang Zheng family, and Boling Cui family, the men are assigned to Youzhou and Yunzhou as the army, guarding the border! All the women are demoted to slaves and charged to the Jiaofang Division!"
ruthless!
Li Er's shot was really harsh. After he did this, these three aristocratic families were completely uprooted. At least within a few hundred years, there will be no day to stand up again!
Li Zexuan stood among the officials. After listening, he couldn’t help being silent for a while. Cui Junchuo was not worthy of sympathy for the culprits. He sympathized with the family members of these three families. As the five surnamed women, they were originally the men of the world who couldn’t find their partners. Because of Cui Junchuo and others, he suffered an unwarranted disaster and was charged into the Jiaofang Division. It is bound to become a plaything for those officials to compete with each other. The end is not miserable!
But what does Cui Junchuo's rebellion have to do with them? If Cui Junchuo succeeds in the rebellion, the men in charge will benefit the most; but if the rebellion fails, women like them will suffer unwarranted disasters!
This is ancient times! The destiny of a woman is always attached to a man, and she can never decide on her own!
In Li Zexuan's heart, a little sympathy was born inexplicably!
But what about sympathy? This is a culture that has been passed on for thousands of years. He can't change it for a while, he can only let it go!
"Your Majesty! Although Cui Junchuo and others have committed the crime of treason, but these people are all very old, and the execution of the death penalty is not appropriate!"
At this moment, Fang Xuanling stood up and arched his hands towards Li Er.
Lao Fang didn't want to plead for the family, but just out of a humanitarian spirit. After all, in ancient times, the elderly were respected by the entire society!
Li Er frowned when he heard this. Cui Junchuo would kill him, but Fang Xuanling said something reasonable. After a moment of silence, he said: "Then give each of them a white silk. Leave a whole body!"
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
Fang Xuanling also understood that this was the biggest concession Li Er could make, so he did not continue to press on.
"Today's army triumphantly, I will not only reward the three armies in the barracks, but also plan to release the curfew tonight and celebrate with the people. All the Aiqings will play when something happens, and leave the court without problems!"
Those who deserve to be rewarded are rewarded, and those who deserve to be punished are also punished. Li Er was in a good mood and said loudly.
No one from the civil and military officials said anything, Li Er decisively announced his retreat.
The hundred officials retired one by one, and the generals of the southern march, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Niu Jinda, and Li Jing, walked with Li Zexuan.
Cheng Yaojin patted Li Zexuan on the shoulder, and laughed: "Haha! Xiaoxuan, I said that although your kid didn't go to the battlefield himself, he also made a lot of credit. Many generals are very envious!"
"That's all your majesty's love!"
Li Zexuan said modestly.
Li Jing waved his hand and said: "Xiaoxuan~www.readwn.com~ I can’t say that. This time I went to Zhengzhou to counter the rebellion. Without your telegraph machine, the army would definitely not be able to win these three aristocratic families so smoothly. No one can claim the thorn!"
Qin Qiong also stroked his beard and said, "Haha! That's right, if it weren't for your telegraph machine and your students, now we old guys should be fighting Luoyang in Henan Province!"
Cheng Yaojin suddenly turned his head, patted Liu Rengui behind him, and said proudly: "Hey! Liu Rengui, I said that your kid has finally become a soldier under my old Cheng, but I finally got you out of Wang Yu's old boy. If you grab it in your hand, you will have to show me Lao Cheng well in the future!"
Cheng Yaojin is General Youwuwei, Liu Rengui is now General Youwuweiyou Lang, saying that he is a soldier under Cheng Yaojin, that's right!
"I will obey!"
Only then did Liu Rengui understand that he was promoted exceptionally, and it turned out that Cheng Yaojin was secretly pushing behind him!
