Chapter 139 Punishment

As for Gu Quan and his son, even if Li Hongjin didn't care about rebellion, they had done such outrageous things for so many years. How could he explain to the people if he let them go?

"Everything should be done according to the regulations." After Li Hongjin finished speaking, he ordered people to take Gu Quan down.

According to Zhong Quan's crime, it was not a problem to sentence him to death by lingchi. Li Chunfeng thought that was too cruel, so he begged his grandfather to change the sentence to beheading to give them a happy life. He also advised his grandfather to use torture as little as possible and to give the people time to recuperate.

.

Li Hongjin agreed to everything.

According to statistics, in this battle, the soldiers lost nearly 7,000 people, and the restaurant masters also lost nearly 200 people.

Before, these soldiers had dismissed the Jianghu people, thinking that they were just a bunch of rabble with little combat capability. But today, their eyes were opened. Not only were they all masters of fighting against ten, but they were also extremely good at fighting.

To kill, to recruit and put people to death.

These soldiers had suffered a lot of damage after a big battle, so Li Chunfeng sent them back to the military camp to rest, and then asked Yue Zhongzun to send some troops over.

After this battle, Li Chunfeng's reputation completely spread in the military camp, especially his story of fighting three masters alone, which was talked about by many soldiers. From then on, no one dared to question Li Chunfeng's ability.

Sissi also helped a lot this time, not only killing several enemies, but also saving many soldiers. Li Hongjin was very satisfied.

After cleaning the place, Li Hongjin took Li Chunfeng, Lian Shuzhi, and Qianqian to a lobby. When everyone sat down, a servant-looking man held a stack of books.

There were many people behind him, about twenty or thirty people. When they saw the prince, they immediately knelt down.

These books record evidence of the crimes committed by Gu Quan and his son during this period. They were all collected in Gu Quan's mansion, including that they embezzled people's property in the name of the palace, embezzled the palace's money, bought and sold population, etc.

A series of crimes.

And those people all came to sue Gu Quan and his son. They wrote their grievances on a piece of paper. Li Hongjin and his grandson carefully read the complaints. They sued Gu Quan and his son for killing their children and taking away their wives.

They forced good people into prostitution and killed innocent people indiscriminately, one after another, which shocked everyone who heard about it.

Li Hongjin angrily smashed the table next to him and said to the people: "As long as everything you say is true, I will definitely make the decision for you."

The common people were kowtowing on the ground in excitement. Li Chunfeng quickly stepped forward and motioned for them to get up. After they stood up, Li Chunfeng said: "Fellow folks, our palace did something wrong and didn't find out in time.

Don’t worry about these evil things that the father and son have done. After we find out the matter, we will definitely give you justice. The land that the father and son have annexed will be returned in full and you will be compensated."

Upon hearing this result, all the people knelt down and kowtowed in thanks.

After the group of people left, Li Chunfeng said, "What should we do next?"

Li Hongjin waved his hand, "I'll leave this matter to you. I'll go back to the military camp to appease the soldiers there."

Li Chunfeng nodded, "Don't worry! You will teach me this matter." Then he called the officials he replaced to the palace to discuss how to investigate the case next.

After a while, an official in official uniform came here. This person was the governor here. His name was Lin Jiandi. Apart from the prince, he was the highest official. Since the governor was imprisoned, Li Hongjin

So he was chosen as the governor here.

This man was upright and selfless. When he was a minor official in the fiefdom, he did a lot of good things for the local people and was deeply respected by the local people.

A long time ago, Lin Jiandi heard about Gu Quan's evil deeds and wanted to go to the palace to report to the prince. After Gu Quan learned the news, he stopped him again and again. He just didn't want him to enter the palace, so he could only drag the matter until

Now.

Originally, Gu Quan wanted to get rid of him quickly, but Lin Jiandi was a person whom the prince valued, so in order not to arouse suspicion, he spared his life.

All the evidence against Gu Quan and his son were collected by Lin Jiandi in the past few years. When he heard that the two of them had been arrested, he rushed here without stopping and delivered the evidence to the prince.

After Li Hongjin met Lin Jiandi, he felt that he had almost experienced enough in recent years, so he recalled him to Yunyang City and made him the governor.

When Lin Jiandi saw Li Chunfeng, he was about to kneel down. The latter quickly supported him and said, "Master Lin, there is no need to be polite. Let's get down to business quickly!"

After Lin Jiandi sat down, he said to Li Chunfeng: "Shisun, we have ransacked Gu Quan's house and found a total of 10 million taels of silver. We have transported all the money here and we will listen to Shisun."

Li Chunfeng also didn't expect that Guquanhui would plunder so much money from the people, which was even richer than the palace. He really didn't know how many people died because of this.

"Distribute this money to the victims! As for our palace, we will not take any money."

"Master Shisun is wise." Then Lin Jiandi continued to ask: "Then what should we do with their family?"

Li Chunfeng said: "Anyone involved in this case can be dealt with according to the law. As for others who are not aware of it, it is convenient."

"But..." Apparently Lin Jiandi was not satisfied with this decision.

Li Chunfeng quickly took over the conversation, "There's nothing wrong with it. It won't harm our family, so we can't kill innocent people indiscriminately, right?"

"Yes, but after the case is concluded, I don't know when they will be executed?"

Since ancient times, executions of prisoners have always been done after the fall, but Li Chunfeng thought that the case was very important and if it was not handled well, it might arouse public anger. Therefore, Li Chunfeng said that once the case was finalized, he would be executed the next day to give justice to the people as soon as possible.

.

"Therefore, we must find evidence as soon as possible to convict them in this matter, and we must not slack off in the slightest."

After Lin Jiandi left, Li Chunfeng ordered Lian Shuzhi to send those experts out to collect evidence as soon as possible.

Soon, the victimized people received pensions ranging from a few taels to hundreds of taels of silver each, and all their land was returned. These people were happy and full of expectations at the same time. Look at this man with hands and eyes that can reach the sky.

What will happen to the Gu family and his son?

Three days later, the Gu family father and son confessed in the face of irrefutable evidence. Immediately, Lin Jiandi made a decisive verdict against them and four other accomplices. After Gu Sheng heard the verdict, he was so frightened that he peed his pants.

They kowtowed in the lobby to admit their mistakes and prayed to the prince to spare their lives.

Lin Jiandi slapped the table and said righteously to Gu Sheng, the audience: "Let us let you live, okay! Then have you let the people who were killed by you go? If you bring them back to life,

I will let you all go."

Lin Jiandi's words made everyone outside the hall applaud him.

Soon, the six prisoners were loaded into the prison van and taken to the execution ground. At this time, people were already standing on both sides of the road. When they saw the prison van coming out, they all became indignant. Who among the people present was not impressed by the care for the father and son?

I have been bullied before, and I have always hated them so much that I wish I could just rush over and peel them off.

Wherever the prison car passed, people threw rotten vegetables, leaves, and rotten eggs in their hands to vent their emotions.

An officer responsible for escorting died at the front and did not stop the actions of the people. As long as they did not harm the lives of these prisoners, let them go!

In order to prevent anyone from coming to rob the prison van, Li Chunfeng sent out all the dozen masters from the Third Realm in the restaurant to escort the prison van together with a group of government soldiers.

Gu Sheng was wearing a prison uniform, his head was clamped to the top of the prison van, unable to move, and his head was covered with rotten vegetables, leaves and rotten eggs. He cried to the prison van in front of him: "Dad, I don't want to die, you are not a hand-eye."

Can it reach the sky? Why don't you send someone to rescue us?"

Gu Quan let out a long sigh and slowly closed his eyes. He knew that the Mingyue Sect had disappeared long ago and how could they come to save them. Now there was only one way to die. If he had known, there would be no need to do so today.

When they arrived at the execution ground outside the city, there were already tens of thousands of people watching. If Li Hongjin hadn't sent 20,000 soldiers in advance to maintain order, these people would have rushed forward and devoured the father and son alive.

The prison officers behind Xingtai were none other than Li Chunfeng and Lin Jiandi. When the people saw Shisun himself, they started talking one after another.

An old man said to several young people next to him: "I heard that this major case was solved by Mr. Shisun himself. If it weren't for our Mr. Shisun, this pair of dog father and son would still be at large!"

A young man asked with some confusion: "How did you learn about this news? Didn't the prince notice anything wrong before?"

The old man said with some pride: "My granddaughter works as a maid in the palace. I heard from her before that the prince spends all day in the military camp and cannot return to the palace several times a month. All the things in the palace are handed over to Gu Quan.

It has become such a disaster.”

The old man straightened his voice and continued: "I heard from my granddaughter that our grandson is Li Chunfeng and Li Shaoxia in the world. He is so capable that he is not only the prince-in-law on the spot, but also Feng Wuya and Qing Qing.

The head of the valley is a very good person. As soon as he came to the palace, he asked the princess to treat her servants better. Therefore, my granddaughter can get a salary of two taels of silver every month, which is twice as much as before.

"

Several other young people were completely attracted by the old man's words, and at the same time they also had doubts. Is what he said acceptable? It couldn't be just hearsay!

Hearing this, the old man was a little impatient and immediately swore to the sky that if he told a lie, there would be five thunderbolts from the sky.
Chapter completed!
