Chapter 1423: Shining for the Future
As Gu Chengzhang, the head of the Gu family in Wu County, committed suicide by throwing himself into the lake, Xue Rengui led [-] soldiers and horses to raid the Gu family's ancestral home that night. All the clan members, retainers and officials were questioned, and the states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River were shocked again.
At a time when the officialdom and the people are in panic, this announcement from the state and county offices came in time.
The Gu clan members have just been thrown into jail to await trial, and various states and counties have issued notices to calm the people.
The notice clearly listed the crimes of the Gu family in Wu County, including the forced purchase and sale of land and the expropriation of people's wealth. The most serious crime was secretly inciting a civil uprising in Jiangning.
Many officials were originally very puzzled by the imperial envoy's search for the Gu family, but when they saw the last line of the charge of inciting a civil uprising, they suddenly understood and fell silent.
Inciting civil unrest is tantamount to treason. The Gu family in Wu County is committing suicide and deserves to be executed.
Then something interesting happened.
When the Zhu family in Wu County was first raided, Jiangnan was shocked. Officials and landowners in various prefectures and counties were panicked, and everyone was in danger.
But now that the Gu family is being investigated, the states and counties in Jiangnan have suddenly stopped after a brief shock. There is little discussion even in private. Everyone can sum up the fate of the Gu family with only two words, "Deserves it."
Inciting civil unrest, what a serious crime, you, a master of Gu family art, are so bold.
After interrogating the Gu family members and officials, and inspecting the Gu family's property, everything went smoothly.
Two days later, the huge Gu family had been basically wiped out and all of them were put into prison.
The officials from the Ministry of Justice who were transferred from Chang'an were in bad luck. They didn't expect that the water in the south of the Yangtze River was so turbid. Major cases came one after another. The officials from the Ministry of Justice were so busy these days that they couldn't touch the ground.
Interrogate, search for evidence, fix evidence, convict, send government soldiers to escort the criminal to Chang'an, wait for the autumn to be executed, etc.
At the same time, in the camp outside Gusu City, negotiations between Prince Teng and the remaining six family heads were going smoothly.
Although the Gu family deserved to be destroyed, Li Qinzai's decisive handling methods once again deeply shocked all the family heads.
The imperial envoy once again proved that he was ruthless, so in the subsequent negotiations, the family heads had already restrained themselves, and did not dare to argue with the court over minutiae, for fear of making the imperial envoy impatient.
Everyone saw with their own eyes that the imperial envoy was impatient. Although Prince Teng presided over the two days of negotiations, the family heads saw Li Qinzai carrying a fishing rod and bucket out of the camp every day. When he came back in the evening, his face was ashen and he looked very unhappy. Kill a few people to change your mood, the expression is ferocious and terrifying.
Three days later, the negotiations between Prince Teng and the six family heads finally came to an end.
It is not an exaggeration to say that "everyone is happy". In this negotiation, the court and the noble families each compromised on something, and of course, they also gained something.
In short, the agreement has been reached and both parties acknowledge their commitment.
King Teng wrote it on his behalf, Li Qinzai sealed it, and the family heads jointly signed it. After both parties wrote the agreement document, they sent it to Chang'an by horse. The last step was for Li Zhi to nod and seal it, and the document became the law of the Tang Dynasty. Those who must investigate.
After the negotiation ended, the family heads also breathed a sigh of relief.
We can finally leave this damn camp!
The negotiation was not uncomfortable, but what was uncomfortable was that the family heads saw Li Qinzai's ugly face every day.
It is really puzzling. This young imperial envoy carries a fishing rod and bucket out of the camp every day. What exactly has he gone through? Why does he look like he wants to eat people when he returns to the camp every day?
It has to be said that Li Qinzai's expression put great psychological pressure on the family heads. Although they didn't know why, the family heads did not dare to cause any more trouble for the imperial envoy. They felt that the imperial envoy's emotions were already on the verge of collapse. A little more stimulation was needed. , another prominent family in Jiangnan was wiped out.
After the negotiation, the heads of the families who were granted amnesty all bid farewell to Li Qinzai one after another.Li Qinzai had been in a bad mood for the past few days. At this time, he put on a smile and personally sent the family heads out of the camp. After waving goodbye, Li Qinzai's face calmed down and returned to his gloomy and ferocious look. He turned around without saying a word and returned. The handsome account.
Prince Teng stood outside the gate and saw Li Qinzai's ugly expression. He did not dare to ask more questions despite his father-in-law's identity, but grabbed Li Qinzai's personal servant Feng Su.
"What's wrong with this bastard? Who provoked him?" Prince Teng asked.
Feng Su's expression was also ugly, purely due to psychological pressure. After all, the low pressure around Li Qinzai these days was too torturous.
"Your Highness, don't ask anymore. In short...it's hard to explain." Feng Su sighed.
I haven't caught a single fish in three days of fishing. Can you believe it?
A dog squatting on the shore would be more rewarding than him.
People are addicted to food, and the fishing quality is not good. If they can't catch it, they will make a bad face...
As a friend of Li Qinzai, Feng Su has been having a hard time these days. Who can understand his pain?
…………
After the negotiation was over, Li Zhi transferred more than a dozen officials from the Ministry of Justice and Supervisory Censors from Chang'an to deal with the illegal affairs of the two prominent families of Wu County, the Zhu family and the Gu family.
At this point, Li Qinzai's mission to Jiangnan has basically been completed.
The biggest gain from this trip is that the land annexation issue in Jiangnan has begun to thaw, and the heads of the major families have promised never to expand their land.
Li Qinzai was not sure whether the family head's promise could be trusted, but Baiqisi was not a man who did nothing.
Baiqisi will have detailed data reported to Chang'an about the approximate amount of land owned by the major families this year and the amount next year.
If the noble family still plans to annex land secretly, Li Qinzai will not mind coming to Jiangnan again next year, bringing a butcher's knife.
After the negotiations with the court ended, the family heads returned to their families. Then, several private shipbuilding workshops appeared inexplicably along the Jiangnan coast. The six prominent families recruited a large number of landless farmers in Jiangnan and experienced shipbuilding craftsmen.
National policies have led to people flocking to follow. Since ancient times, there have been many smart people who followed the trend and became rich and prosperous.
After the imperial court established shipping departments in Dengzhou and Quanzhou, the private shipbuilding industry also sprung up. A negotiation between the six prominent families and the imperial court indirectly promoted the sprouting of private capitalism in the Tang Dynasty. This is true. Even Li Qinzai didn't expect it.
The second day of June in the fourth year of Linde.
When he got up early in the morning, Li Qinzai was dressed neatly. The soldiers in the camp were already packing their bags, and the logistics team was arranging the camp horses and food and grass, and the army was preparing to break camp.
Unknowingly, it had been more than three months since he came to Jiangnan. Li Qinzai's mission had been completed and it was time to return to Chang'an.
Li Qinzai was the first to leave the camp on horseback. Li Qinzai suddenly found a sea of people outside the camp.
Not only were the heads of the six prominent families at the head of the crowd, but there were also countless officials and ordinary people and farmers in rough clothes.
Seeing Li Qinzai leaving the camp, tens of thousands of people and farmers knelt down and worshiped him.
"I respectfully send you to the imperial envoy, Duke Li, to clean up the south of the Yangtze River and establish a destiny for the people. Duke Li will shine through the ages!"
