Originally, the officer planned to find another time to deal with your case, but now that you have come to your door, let's deal with you and us together!
Come here, suppress this guy and Li You and others, and put them in the prison, and then they will be exiled to Lingnan together!
When Zhang Xiaodong's order was issued, Zhao Kuo was immediately surrounded by many yamen servants. Fan Zeng struggled hard but failed, and with a regretful expression on his face, he said to Zhao Kuo: "Mr. Gong, I hurt you!"
After Zhao Kuo saw this scene, his expression was still calm, and he said to Fan Zeng: You have to believe that there is still justice and justice in this world after all.
After saying this, Zhao Kuo turned his head and nodded to Mao Sui who had already been unable to hold back.
From Mao Sui's point of view, of course, he had already had enough of Zhang Xiaodong and Lu Yu, so he immediately slapped the nearest yamen servant, and directly slapped the yamen servant who was too late to guard against the chair. Fan fell to the ground.
When Mao Sui made a move, those Zhao Kuo's entourage behind him, who were also the guards of the Han Kingdom's court who were responsible for protecting Zhao Kuo's safety, immediately took action one after another.
Since these palace guards can be selected to protect Zhao Kuo, of course their martial arts are top-notch existences. A dozen or so yamen servants are not their opponents at all, and they are beaten to the ground in an instant.
This sudden change immediately caused a burst of exclamation, and Lu Yu subconsciously yelled: Come on, hurry up, and defeat these daring traitors!
Lu Yu also brought several entourages with him in this wave.
But right away, Lu Yu knew that in the face of real combat power, numbers are useless.
In just 2 minutes, Lu Yu's followers were also beaten to the ground, and a group of people fell in disorder in the hall.
Zhang Xiaodong was terrified by this. He was about to continue shouting, but found that Mao Sui was already standing in front of him with a smile on his face.
Can you try saying another word?
Although Mao Sui is already in his 40s, when it comes to martial arts, ten Zhang Xiaodongs are not worthy to carry shoes for him.
This is mainly because Mao Sui was an undercover agent in the Qin State back then, just in case, he practiced martial arts crazily, so as not to escape quickly when he escaped.
Zhang Xiaodong opened his mouth and showed an extremely ugly smile: "Strong, strong man, why is this so, misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding!"
At this moment, another sentence floated over leisurely.
Misunderstand?I'm afraid I don't think so.
This sentence was said by Zhao Kuo.
After Zhao Kuo finished speaking, he calmly walked to Zhang Xiaodong's side under the eyes of everyone.
Mao Sui immediately understood, and directly lifted Zhang Xiaodong up and threw it aside.
Zhao Kuo sat down very naturally in the only main seat, that is, the position that belonged to Zhang Xiaodong just now.
Everyone outside the lobby looked at this scene, all of them were dumbfounded.
Fan Zeng couldn't help but said: "Gong Gong, let's go!"
For Fan Zeng, what happened today was shocking enough, and what shocked Fan Zeng even more was that this benefactor still didn't leave after beating someone up?
You must know that Zhang Xiaodong is the order of the nest, and he can mobilize the army!
No matter how many entourages around Zhao Kuo can fight, is there still an army that can fight?
Zhao Kuo smiled, and said to Mao Sui: You can tell.
Mao Sui nodded and said loudly: "I want you to know that this is none other than the Emperor of our Great Han Kingdom!"
After Mao Sui's words fell, everyone present was instantly silent.
emperor?
This
Suddenly, Lu Yu laughed loudly: I'm afraid you are crazy, you dare to pretend to be His Majesty the Emperor?You are dead!
Zhao Kuo smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Slap your mouth."
Mao Sui flew up and kicked Lu Yu directly in the face. Lu Yu screamed in pain, and an unknown number of front teeth flew out, and he rolled on the ground screaming.
At this moment, a group of soldiers rushed in.
Zhang Xiaodong was overjoyed, he thought they were soldiers from Nest City, but he never expected that what came was actually a group of Imperial Forest Army armed with muskets!
The general of the Yulin Army headed directly came to Zhao Kuo and knelt down: "My minister Pang Jian escorted me late, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Pang Jian's words were like five thunderbolts, instantly stunned Zhang Xiaodong and made everyone present stupefied.
If everyone didn't believe it when Mao Sui revealed his identity just now, but now that the Musketeers and Imperial Forest Army have appeared, who would dare not believe it?
Zhang Xiaodong looked at Zhao Kuo trembling all over, and finally connected the majestic man in front of him with the figure who had given a speech on the highest stage of the academy many years ago.
It's a pity that Zhang Xiaodong at that time was just the most ordinary scholar, and he never got close to the stage. After so many years, he had already forgotten Zhao Kuo's face!
At this time, the common people outside the lobby also came to their senses, and they didn't know who started it, and everyone knelt down one after another.
I have seen His Majesty!
Lu Yu covered her mouth, also dumbfounded.
His Majesty?
I, Lu Yu, actually offended His Majesty?
For a moment, Lu Yu felt dizzy. If possible, he really wished he could pass out on the spot.
Fan Zeng was also dumbfounded.
Engong is actually the legendary His Majesty?
Your Majesty, you actually helped me out, and even had dinner at my Fan Zeng's house?
Huge shock and happiness surged back and forth in Fan Zeng's heart, which made him unable to bear the urge to cry up to the sky.
Suddenly, Fan Zeng came to his senses and quickly knelt down.
Chang Xiao can continue to whistle in the future, but now, no one can stop Fan Zeng from expressing his heartfelt respect to the wise and great His Majesty!
Zhao Kuo looked at the many people kneeling on the ground, smiled slightly, and said calmly: "You don't have to be polite, get up, and let me come to have a good trial of this case."
After hearing Zhao Kuo's words, everyone stood up one after another, with hope rising in their hearts.
His Majesty the Emperor has come, and also bumped into the Lu clan colluding with Zhang Xiaodong on the spot. Now, Juchao City should be saved!
Zhao Kuo first set his sights on Zhang Xiaodong, and said calmly: Zhang Xiaodong, you colluded with the local rich to oppress the common people, you turned a blind eye to the loan documents that were clearly usury, you violated the laws of the Han Dynasty, but you are still stubborn. Officials are simply a disgrace to the academy!Starting today, Zhang Xiaodong will be deprived of all his positions, his family members will be exiled to Lingnan, and Zhang Xiaodong himself will be imprisoned temporarily. When the troops from the brigade arrive, he will be beheaded for public display!
For corrupt officials like Zhang Xiaodong, Zhao Kuo has no affection at all.
You must know that the corrupt officials oppressed the people, and what they embezzled was the money of the Great Han Kingdom. Which one is not the foundation of the Great Han Kingdom, and which one does not belong to Zhao Kuo?
For Zhao Kuo, these corrupt officials are thieves, thieves who steal the hearts of the Han people and the country!
It is impossible for Zhao Kuo to let these hateful thieves live. He must let everyone, especially the officials, know that whoever is greedy will die!
After Zhao Kuo's voice fell, Zhang Xiaodong was dumbfounded.
A few seconds later, Zhang Xiaodong yelled frantically: Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, please forgive me!
But Zhao Kuo was too lazy to look at Zhang Xiaodong again, and with a big wave of his hand, Zhang Xiaodong was immediately detained.
Afterwards, Zhao Kuo shifted his gaze to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu trembled all over, opened his mouth and said in a windy voice: Your Majesty, Xiaomin
Zhao Kuo directly interrupted Lu Yu's words, and said calmly: I have already made repeated orders and requests. There is no problem with ordinary private loans, but we must not engage in excessive usury.It's good for you, Mrs. Lu, not only came up with loan sharks, but also wanted to rob people's daughters. If I can tolerate a guy like you, what's the point of that day?
Come on, pass on the order that the entire Lu family will be sent to Lingnan from now on, and will be slaves for three generations without any amnesty!Lu Yu himself is the leader of the evil and colluded with Zhang Xiaodong, so he will be executed together with Zhang Xiaodong!
Hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't speak anymore, and fell limp on the ground, and was dragged out like a dead dog.
Seeing Zhang Xiaodong and Lu Yu being dragged away one after another, the people outside the hall burst into extremely enthusiastic cheers.
Your Majesty is wise!
The damned Zhang Xiaodong and Lu Yu were finally dealt with, the heavens have eyes!
Thank you, Your Majesty, for eliminating such pests for our hive city!
All the people cheered from the bottom of their hearts at this moment, looking at Zhao Kuo with adoring eyes.
At this moment, in their hearts, they truly recognized the identity of the Han people.
When I was a native of Chu State, when corrupt officials and nobles oppressed the common people, no one would speak for the common people at all, and no one cared about the common people's feelings and life and death.
But it's different now.
Now, we are all Han people.
Now, we all have a wise majesty who can help us get rid of these damn nobles and corrupt officials.
Now, we are proud of being Han people!
Chapter 1199 Long Live Your Majesty (No.30 [-]st Update)
Although Zhao Kuo had already reached a conclusion on the case this time, in line with the principle of fairness and openness, Zhao Kuo ordered Mao Sui and others to assist in investigating all the facts about Zhang Xiaodong and Lu Yu first.
It was at this time that the brigade of soldiers and horses that had been left behind by Zhao Kuo had already arrived at Juchao City.
So of course Zhao Kuo didn't talk nonsense, and let a large number of officials in the entourage immediately invest in this investigation.
This investigation doesn't matter, the things that come out of the investigation are also very shocking.
From Zhang Xiaodong's mansion, more than 5000 million cash and various treasures were searched.
And in Lu Yu's Lu family mansion, there is also a large amount of cash, as well as a whole large box, at least thousands of IOUs.
The amounts of these IOUs vary, but almost every line is usury.
According to the confessions of members of the Lu family, only a few of these IOUs were lucky enough to be able to repay the debts, and most of them were completely involved in usury and eventually became Lu's servants.
If the total principal and interest of these IOUs are calculated, it can exceed a full 4 million yuan, which is definitely a very shocking figure.
In addition, Fan Zeng's revelation has also been proven to be true and effective. A large number of weapons and armor curses were found in Lu's family manor. Most of these weapons and Jiazhou were secretly forged by Lu.
According to the confessions of some members of the Lu family, these weapons and armors were built, on the one hand, to protect themselves at certain times, and on the other hand, it is not ruled out that they are for the purpose of causing chaos.
In addition, in Juchao City, there are still a large number of officials colluding with Zhang Xiaodong and the Lu family. Zhao Kuo is also merciless and arrests all the officials involved.
Looking at the dense files in his hands, Zhao Kuo's face gradually became gloomy.
In front of Zhao Kuo, a large number of officials of the Han Dynasty also lowered their heads one after another, lest they become the target of His Majesty's anger.
Zhao Kuo said calmly: This matter must be widely announced, and announced to every city in our Han Dynasty, so that all officials can take warning.When such a big corruption case can be found in such a small nest city, local stubborn forces like the Lu family can still appear. I think this is something that everyone needs to reflect on.
Why doesn't our system work in front of such people?It's because some of us like officials and officials to protect each other. They already know that some people are corrupting the law and oppressing the people, but they turn a blind eye to it for the sake of their colleagues.
We must not only crack down on corrupt officials and local bullies like Zhang Xiaodong and Lu Yu, but also be vigilant against those who like officials to protect each other, and punish and deal with them as necessary.Only in this way can our country of Han truly enjoy long-term peace and stability, and the people of the country of Han can truly feel at ease with our comrades, and are willing to truly support us and serve the country of Han.
Give me the order again.Zhang Xiaodong and Lu Yu are very bad in nature, the original beheading should be changed to five horses.As for the clansmen of Zhang Xiaodong and Lu Yu, except for the minors, all the male clansmen were beheaded, and the others were sent to Lingnan according to the previous judgment.
After listening to Zhao Kuo's words, the faces of all the Han officials present also changed.
Zhao Kuo's conviction can be said to be extremely severe, reaching the upper limit of punishment in the law.
Although it is said that Zhao Kuo did not use the power of the emperor to break through the provisions of the law, it is precisely because of this that the officials of the Han Dynasty present were even more fearful.
Because this means that in the future, if other people present also violated the law, Zhao Kuo, as the emperor, would not be able to use the power of the emperor to violate the law to forgive these officials.
Zhao Kuo's decision was soon announced. Compared with the trepidation of the officials, the common people clapped their hands and applauded after hearing this decision.
That's great, Zhang Xiaodong, a corrupt official, has finally been sanctioned.
The bully Lu Yu finally hit the iron plate, and His Majesty took them out personally.
Every member of the Lu family is vicious, at least hundreds of people died in their hands in our Nest City, and now they have been cleaned up. This is definitely the luck of our Nesters.
In the final analysis, it is because of His Majesty's wisdom. If His Majesty had not been able to uphold justice for us, how could we have a bright future?
It was absolutely impossible for the Chu State in the past to have someone help deal with corrupt officials like Zhang Xiaodong and bullies like Lu Yu. This can only be done in the Han Kingdom.
You are so right, from now on, please don't call me Chu people, please call me Han people.
After the trial of such a case, the hearts of the people in the entire Juchao City have completely turned towards the Great Han Kingdom.From now on, this place will become one of the most loyal support places of Han Kingdom.
After Zhao Kuo heard these remarks reported from the Ministry of Intelligence, he also felt a little emotional.
The people are actually very simple. If you treat them well, they will naturally support you from the bottom of their hearts, even at the expense of their lives.
However, in history, there have been many officials and rulers who were greedy and dissatisfied, squeezed the common people to death, and even did not treat the common people as human beings at all.
It would be a real oddity if such officials and rulers were not overthrown.
Beside Zhao Kuo, Tian Wan looked at Zhao Kuo with an expression of admiration on her face.
It is truly a blessing in the world that His Majesty is able to do such a great deed for the people living in Nest City.
