Vol 2 Chapter 929: Sitting in the capital and moving the world

   Chapter 929 Sitting in the capital and moving the world

   Not all prime ministers can have money to live in Yonglefang, but Prime Minister Shen Kuan lives in Yonglefang, which is not too far from Jing'an Houfu.

  Shen Kuan, born in Wuxing Shen family.

  Wu Xing Shen is a typical family in the south of the Yangtze River. Long before the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty, the Wu Xing Shen family produced a large number of talents. There are 158 people who have read history books in the past few hundred years, and 38 of them have authentic legends.

After Emperor Taizu established the Great Jin, the Wu Xingshen clan, as an aristocratic family in Jiangnan, began to serve as an official in the Dajin court. In the first hundred years or so, the Wu Xingshen clan in the south of the Yangtze River was even lower than those of the Northern Zhou clan, but with the After the Jin Dynasty ruled the world, a family in the south of the Yangtze River like the Wu Xing Shen family immediately raised their heads and gradually took over the right to speak in the hands of the Northern Zhou family, and began to dominate the officialdom.

   A person from a Jiangnan aristocratic family like Shen Kuan, who has risen steadily in the court, is a good example, showing that the power of the Jiangnan aristocratic family has been expanding rapidly in the past 40 years.

   This is called the migration of the context to the south.

Wuxing Shen is not only a scholar, but also a big landlord in the south of the Yangtze River. Almost 30% of the land in Wuxing is the property of their Shen family. After Shen Kuan worshipped the chancellor, Wuxing and Shen became even more prosperous. If you come to the door to see the Shen family, the Shen family will not necessarily appreciate it.

Last year, after Shen Kuan was enthroned as a minister, Wuxing Shen's reputation reached its peak. Scholars from all over the country and even officials from all over the world could not see Shen Kuan, so they went to Wuxing Shen's gate to ask for a meeting, vying to become the Shen family. doorman.

  With this family background, Shen Kuan will naturally not be short of money. In fact, he is the prime minister with the richest family background in the past decades. In Yonglefang alone, Wuxing Shen has three properties.

  It is also for this reason that Shen Kuan generally only accepts antiques, or only rare books, calligraphy and paintings of predecessors, etc., and rarely receives money, and is dubbed as elegant by the community.

However, this "Ya Xiang" had already been killed by Li Xin himself, and the Wu Xing Shen Clan, even if the clan was not exterminated this time, would be greatly damaged because of this, and even be knocked down to the dust. It has flourished for hundreds of years. This is where the family path falls.

During the Taikang Dynasty, the Zheng clan in Xingyang and the Li clan in Zhao County, a group of Northern Zhou clans that had passed down for thousands of years, were almost buried in the grave of history with the tireless digging of pits by generations of emperors and the efforts of Li Xin, a landfiller. However, this time, since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, in the local Jiangnan family, Shen Kuan will be hurt by himself.

Yonglefang is not small, but it is not very large. Shen Kuan’s Xiangfu is only two streets away from Jing’an Houfu. Li Xin and Xie Dai only walked for a small amount of time before reaching Shen Kuan’s. At the door of the house, the Marquis of Jing'an hid his hands in his wide sleeves and glanced at the Shen mansion in front of him.

   "Go in and arrest people, as long as they are in this house, no matter men, women or children, they will all be arrested."

  Xie Dai sighed slightly, then bowed his body and clasped his fists and said, "Xiaguan obeys."

  Shanyin Xie, like Wu Xingshen, are from a Jiangnan family. Now that Wu Xingshen is going to suffer, he, a child of the Jiangnan family, seems to be a bit sad.

All aristocratic families have a problem, that is, there are many servants. Li Xin's Jing'an Hou's mansion used to be the Qi Wang's mansion. In terms of land occupation, it is already one of the best in Yonglefang, but the servants of Jing'an Hou's mansion are added together. There were only a hundred or so, and the Shen residence was not very large, at most less than half of the Jing'an Hou residence, but there were hundreds of servants.

Because there were too many people in the Shen residence, the Yulin guards were not enough. Xie Dai caught half of the people, and mobilized more than 30 Yulin guards to help. After an hour or so, in the end, the Shen residence The servants in the house were summoned to the backyard of the Shen residence, while dozens of Shen Kuan's family members were all **** and sent to the Dali Temple prison.

This time, not only Shen Kuan's family, but also his disciples, former officials, and even the same clan and hometown will be arrested. If they are arrested, they do not necessarily have to kill, but to find out who participated in this "treachery". middle.

   As for these family members of Shen Kuan, there is no need for trial, because Shen Kuan has determined to rebel, the Shen family will be executed, and these people will surely die.

   After careful study, Wu Xing Shen will also be implicated.

As early as when Emperor Yuan Zhao and Shen Kuan were in conflict, the Shen residence was targeted by the guards, so Shen Kuan's family was basically unable to escape, and they were all arrested. It took more than an hour before and after the arrest. During this process, Li Xin found a chair and sat quietly at the door of the Shen residence, closing his eyes and resting.

   This matter is for him to do, but he doesn't need to do it himself, he just needs to show his face and take the blame down.

After all the people were caught, Xie Dai wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked to Li Xin, bowed his head and said, "Teacher, all the Shen family have been taken into the Dali Temple prison, but there are hundreds more in the Shen family. The servants are now gathered in the backyard, and the servant suspects that there may be Shen family members hiding among these servants..."

   "If you don't think it's too much trouble, then go check it out, find out the people who are hiding in it, and throw them in the big jail."

Li Xin said indifferently: "Today is only the first round of arrests, I will let the people from the Ministry of Justice go to trial for those arrested today, and then Yu Linwei will cooperate with the Ministry of Justice. If they find one person, you can arrest one person. "

   Having said this, Li Xin paused.

   "If there is any resistance, say it was my order."

  Being the culprit must have the appearance of bearing the culprit. Li Xin has never been afraid of offending people.

  Xie Dai glanced at Li Xin with a complicated expression, then bowed his head deeply: "Xiaguan obeys."

   In his heart, he still admired the current grandmaster in front of him.

   In terms of age, he is not much younger than Tai Fu, but he is far inferior to Li Xin in terms of means of knowledge, status in the court, and even wisdom.

  The Marquis of Jing An stood up from the chair and stretched a lot.

   "Tomorrow will post a bulletin saying that Shang Shutai Zuo Pushe Shen Kuan conspired to usurp and beheaded all the people. Three days later, all those people arrested today will be killed in Xi Shi Street."

   "If you can't find the executioner, let the people from Jingzhao Mansion find it. They are familiar with this work. After three days, I will go to the West City Street to be executed."

  Xie Dai said with a wry smile: "Taifu, the murder of the imperial court requires the local government to report it and the Ministry of Punishment to review it. If the emperor is red, you can't kill it if you say it like this..."

   "Furthermore, the place where officials were beheaded was not Xishi Street, but Liushufang North Street..."

   Lord Jingan smiled slightly.

   "Xishi Street is the place where rebels were beheaded. Chengde didn't know how many rebels there were, and they were beheaded in Xishi Street to show the public."

There are two cities in the capital, east and west, that is, the place where things are traded. Among them, things in the west market are cheaper, so the flow of people is very large, and the fish and dragons are mixed. During the Chengde Dynasty, because the unification did not last long, from time to time, rebels came to Beijing to assassinate the emperor. After these rebels were caught, they were cut in half in Xishi Street.

The purpose of    is very simple, to frighten ordinary people and make them feel more peaceful.

   Li Xin's face was calm: "I will get the court killing documents, Xie Lang will do things."

  Xie Dai reluctantly nodded, and went down to lead people to work.

   On the other hand, Li Xin went back to Jing'an Marquis Mansion to sleep with his hands behind his back.

   Just when the "liquidation" in the capital was in full swing, a letter of 600 miles was rushed to the capital from the southwest, and then sent directly to the table of the emperor in the palace.

The content of the    letter is very simple, only two or three lines.

   "Our army and the Southwest Army fought outside the Jiange, and the enemy had Tianlei firearms, and our army was defeated."

The signature    is Xie Jing, a lieutenant of the Hanzhong Army.

   After the young emperor read the letter, his face instantly turned ugly.
