Three days later, when Hu Ke and Li Yifeng were released, they all fell into silence. Seeing the banquet prepared by Li Changxian for them, they didn't say hello to Li Changxian, and they lay on the table and ate voraciously.

"Why are you doing this?"

Li Changxian touched his chin, felt the beard that had just grown, and then sighed and said, "Why don't you stay in the capital well, but have to come to Wanling County to wade into some muddy waters?

Now I give you two options, one is to conquer the law and wait for the court to punish you.

Second, stay well in Wanling County and stop thinking about anything unrealistic.”

"ah......."

Hu Ke and Li Yifeng were both stunned and their meals slowed down.

"Doing the law? Why do you need to do it?"

Li Changxian smiled and said, "You have dinner first, and I will tell you in detail after you finish eating!"

The more Li Changxian didn't say it, the more nervous Hu Ke and Li Yifeng were. They couldn't figure out why Li Changxian arrested them and hung them for three days.

On the first day, they were still scolding Li Changxian, but within the next two days, they were completely convinced.

Even if they are released now, they dare not have any complaints.

But it is impossible to let them commit suicide, not to mention that they feel that they have not violated the law, and all this is Li Changxian taking revenge on them.

I won’t mention the small grudges of the past, and I will be hungry if I get hungry, and the punishment will be completed. I believe that Li Changxian will not continue to vent his anger on them because of the small grudges of the past.

They really couldn't figure out what kind of grudges they had with Li Changxian, so they asked Li Changxian to report to the court to punish their crimes.

"Mr. Li...Mr. Li County Magistrate, please tell me if you have anything to do!"

Li Changxian smiled and said, "It is good for people to dream, but don't have some unrealistic dreams."

"dream?"

Hu Ke and Li Yifeng were not sure what Li Changxian said at first, but then the two of them realized whether it was because Li Changxian was not in the county government and they issued some government orders in Wanling County overreaching power.

One radish and one pit, many officials of the Jin Dynasty always abide by the relationship between radish and pit, and will not easily cross a certain boundary. However, when an official exceeds his authority, it is a "crime", and this kind of overreach of his authority.

The illegal acts were despised by all officials of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Moreover, the "Law of the Great Jin Dynasty" clearly stipulates the scope of responsibilities of officials at all levels, and officials are not allowed to abuse or exceed the powers granted by the law, otherwise it will constitute the crime of abuse of power.

If these abuses seriously interfere with the normal operation of county governments at all levels in the Jin Dynasty, the punishment is quite severe, and some people may even be sentenced to hanging.

"Don't you understand? Did you not take a good look at the laws of the Jin Dynasty before becoming an official? Do you not know how much punishment it would be for exceeding authority?"

"ah......."

Hu Ke and Li Yifeng were both stunned and stopped eating. They were so scared that they knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "Mr. Li, County Magistrate Li, Grandpa Li, please spare us!"

After all, these two people are two playboys, and they are two perfect Xiong Bao. They did this not because they did not understand the laws of the Great Jin Dynasty, but because they were used as shields.

Some people may want to try Li Changxian's ability to master Wanling County. If these two Xiong Bao can easily break through Li Changxian's control over Wanling County, others will have reason to take action, and they can even

Arrange Wanling County under their sphere of influence.

"Why do you carry so much money with you? So I wonder where this money comes from?

Don’t fool me from bringing it from the capital, or other people offered you a gift!”

After Li Changxian finished speaking, he looked at Hu Ke and Li Yifeng coldly.

Hu Ke and Li Yifeng were both shocked when they heard this. They looked at each other and saw each other's inner thoughts.

If you don't say it, I'm afraid Li Changxian will shut them down for a few more days and let them taste the feeling of hunger again.

They don’t want to encounter that feeling of starvation again in their lifetime. Starvation is really more uncomfortable than death.

But if they say it, it will bring endless disasters to their families, and the power of those people is not something their families can resist.

Seeing that these two people were a little hesitant, Li Changxian reminded them again.

"Now there are many businessmen in the county government to accuse you of blackmail, saying that you went to Wanling County's merchants for blackmail. I really don't expect that you have such great ability and have gained 500,000 or 600,000 in just a few days

Two silver.

It’s really not easy for you. If the Jin Dynasty could have a few more officials like you, the Jin Dynasty court would not have been as short of money as it is now.

But not only extort businessmen, it is said that you also plan to take the money from the Wanling County Silver Deposit for yourself. Don’t you two know how serious the severe punishment for the Jin Dynasty to embezzle and accept bribes against those officials?

Those who receive money by mistake will not be forgiven. Moreover, according to the Law of the Great Jin Dynasty, "the chief minister of the Supervisory Office shall be wounded at fifteen horses, and the chief master of the Supervisory Office shall be wounded at thirty horses, and the chief master shall be wounded at his own stolen plan and thirty horses shall be wounded at the stolen plan."

And you actually embezzled and accepted bribes of more than 500,000 or 600,000 yuan. I don’t know if the court will hang you or beat you to death?

No matter which kind of punishment is very cruel, it makes people unable to bear to look at it!"

Hu Ke and Li Yifeng were completely scared. If they died, they would not be able to die. Now they did not care about the interests of their family, because they believed that those forces would only attack their family and not exterminate them.

But if they die, there is nothing left.

"Mr. Li County, we are willing to stay in Wanling County and will not cause trouble for Wanling County again!"

After hearing this, Li Changxian burst into laughter and said, "Those who know the current affairs are heroes. I believe that both of you will not regret what you said today."

Hu Ke and Li Yifeng hurriedly replied in unison: "No, no!"

Li Changxian exclaimed: "Okay, please feel free, then tell me where the money comes from?"

"The second prince and the third prince gave 200,000 taels respectively, the third prince gave 100,000 taels, and Concubine Lin sent someone to give 200,000 taels."

At the beginning, Hu Ke and Li Yifeng were a little hesitant, but since they all said it was open, I won’t hide anything. “There is another big sea merchant surnamed Wu who sponsored 300,000 taels and asked us to obtain the magic cannon.

manufacturing technology and gunpowder formula.”

Li Changxian nodded. Wu Damazi invested so much, but just wanted to obtain the cannon technology of Wanling County, which was something Li Changxian could think of.

It is estimated that the second prince and the third prince also have this idea, but why does the third prince and Concubine Lin give these two bear bags so much money?

Do you want to win over yourself? Have you started investing in yourself early?

"So has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince given you money?"

Since all the princes have taken action, I believe the prince's palace will not be without movement.

Hu Ke and Li Yifeng looked at each other again, and they couldn't speak some things, but they had to say them.

"When I left Beijing, His Highness the Crown Prince also sent someone to find us and asked us to study hard with County Magistrate Li, and also gave us 20,000 taels of silver."

"Twenty thousand taels of silver?"

Li Changxian muttered, "The Crown Prince's Palace is too shabby. It seems that other princes take action for 100,000 and 200,000 yuan, but he only took out a small amount of 20,000 taels of silver."
