Chapter 154 The old man has prepared a big gift for the adults!
Compared with the reaction of the common people, the biggest reaction should be said to be those officials who were asked by Li Huan to come and watch.
If you really want to talk about it, most of these officials are actually not good people. At most, according to the information investigated by Jin Yiwei, these people can still maintain a certain bottom line.
Maybe he was corrupt and perverting the law, and maybe there were a lot of things wrong with him, but at least he didn't do anything like murder and let go, and he was able to do something.
If Li Huan really followed the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang to deal with this evil official, I'm afraid there might not be a few people left in the Fujian officialdom.
Killing people is indeed simple, but after killing people, I am afraid that the whole of Fujian will fall into a state where no one can use it, and then it will be in chaos.
Li Huan's eyes fell on these officials. It could be seen that each of these people looked pale, and some even slumped there, obviously very frightened.
Since Li Huan had not taken action against these people before, he naturally had no intention of taking action against these people who had made it clear that they had taken refuge in him.
After all, without these people helping him, it would be really difficult to carry out some of his orders.
In addition to these officials, there are also Jiang Hong and other wealthy businessmen and gentry. These people were also frightened, especially when they saw those people they were familiar with in the past being beheaded one by one. The impact was so intense
One can imagine.
Hundreds of thousands of people lined up to be beheaded. This situation is probably the only one that has happened in decades. Even the executioner had to use two rounds in the end, and the ghost head knife that was used to behead the person was almost curled up.
Bladed.
For more than an hour, the surroundings of the execution ground were silent. Except for the occasional whimpering, there was no other sound at all.
One after another, corpses were lying on the execution ground, filled with blood and full of gore.
Li Huan sat there all the time, watching from beginning to end, which made many people feel more and more in awe of Li Huan.
Looking at the sparse crowd around him, Li Huan stood up slowly, without saying anything, got on his horse and left directly surrounded by a group of royal guards.
As Li Huan left, the extremely depressing atmosphere that filled the execution ground finally dissipated. Many people took a deep breath and sat down on the ground.
Although the scene in front of him was dripping with blood, the corpses with their heads cut off lying on the execution ground were extremely horrifying.
But in the eyes of many people, compared to the corpses in front of them, Li Huan seems to be more terrifying.
When he returned to the other courtyard, Li Huan saw several figures coming to greet him.
When Luo Gan and others saw Li Huan, they quickly saluted and said, "I will pay my respects to you sir!"
Li Huan glanced at a few people and said, "But what's the matter?"
Luo Gan nodded and said: "Returning to your lord, the murderers of Jin Yiwei Cai Chao and Zheng Kui have been caught."
Li Huan couldn't help being stunned when he heard this. Jin Yiwei and his two men could not see their bodies alive or dead. He had heard Chen Yao say this. He originally thought it would take a few days to get on board before the results would come out, but he didn't expect the results to come out so quickly.
As for the missing two people being killed, in fact Li Huan had already expected this. Unless they were killed, how could the two living people stay away all night long unless they were killed?
After all, unless there is a clear mission that requires going out, otherwise he will go according to his instructions, and the people of Jinyiwei strictly spend the night outside.
Li Huan's restraints on those around him were quite strict. He was afraid that the imperial guards who had followed him out of the capital would lose their lives because of their disorderly conduct when they went to the local area.
Walking to a pavilion, Li Huan sat down, glanced at Luo Gan and others who were following him, and said, "Tell me, what is going on? I am really curious, who is this person?
He is so courageous that he even dares to kill people from Jin Yiwei."
Luo Gan said hurriedly: "Sir, the person who killed our people was a man from the Jianghu. Maybe he was a young man who had just walked in the Jianghu. Somehow he met Cai Chao. Zheng Kui and the others were chasing the Qian family.
Qian Li, you also know that our reputation is not very good, and we were killed by that man at that time, and the body was hidden in our residence."
Li Huan nodded slightly, which was expected.
He took a cup of tea from the attendant, took a sip of tea and said: "What is that man's name? Which family is he a disciple of? When he came down the mountain, didn't his master tell him who he could provoke and who he couldn't provoke?
?”
Luo Gan said: "That man's name is Linghu Chong, a disciple of the Huashan Sect..."
Li Huan, who was drinking tea, almost spit out a mouthful of tea after hearing Luo Gan's words. He looked at Luo Gan in disbelief.
Could he have heard wrongly? The murderer turned out to be Linghu Chong, which was beyond Li Huan's expectation.
Although Li Huan was extremely shocked, after the initial surprise, he listened to Luo Gan narrate what happened.
Li Huan had a rather strange look on his face. Linghu Chong rescued Qian Li, but he wanted to take people out of the city at night, but accidentally leaked his whereabouts. He was discovered by soldiers patrolling the city and Jin Yiwei, and surrounded and killed him under the city wall.
, even people were shot like hedgehogs.
Li Huan glanced at Luo Gan and said, "You said that Qian Li betrayed Linghu Chong in the end and took you to the residence of Linghu Chong's master and apprentice, only to be slapped to death by Yue Buqun who drove back?"
Luo Gan nodded and said: "My subordinates are incompetent. Although they found the bodies of the two brothers Cai Chao and Zheng Kui, they were not able to capture Linghu Chong's accomplices. That Yue Buqun was extremely powerful. He killed me and others as soon as he made a move.
Stop it, if the other party hadn't killed him painfully, I'm afraid the body would have been completely cold by now."
When Li Huan heard Luo Gan say that Yue Buqun did not kill them, but only rescued Yue Lingshan and restrained their acupuncture points, he gently tapped the stone table with one hand and said with a smile on his lips:
"This Yue Buqun is quite interesting."
Luo Gan said respectfully: "Sir, the body of Linghu Chong has been sent over. As for the escaped Yue Buqun and Yue Lingshan, my subordinates don't know how to deal with it, so I came here to ask for your instructions."
Meng Hui, who had been standing there silently, now had a cold and stern look in his eyes and said, "Sir, we cannot condone the people in the world who seem to be so lawless and dare to kill our Jin Yiwei."
The two people who were killed, including Luo Gan, were Meng Hui's subordinates, so Meng Hui was naturally very angry.
Li Huan stood up slowly and said with his hands behind his back: "Take me to see Linghu Chong's body."
Although they didn't know why Li Huan suddenly wanted to see the body of an unknown person, Meng Hui, Luo Gan and others were still busy leading the way.
Soon Li Huan saw a body wrapped by the chairman.
Although the arrows on his body had been cleaned, just looking at the blood holes on his body, one could imagine that Linghu Chong must have been shot with arrows before he died.
To be honest, Li Huan didn't have much favorable impressions of Linghu Chong. As a senior disciple of the Huashan Sect, he acted as if he was specifically trying to harm the Huashan Sect.
But I never expected that Linghu Chong would die in this way in Fuzhou City. Maybe this is not necessarily a bad thing for the Huashan Sect.
Waving his hand, Li Huan chuckled and said: "Since Linghu Chong is dead, Cai Chao and Zheng Kui's revenge has been avenged. Linghu Chong's body has been restrained for the time being. As for Yue Buqun and Yue Lingshan, there is no rush for the time being.
If Yue Buqun is smart enough, he will definitely give us an explanation."
As he spoke, a murderous intent flashed in Li Huan's eyes: "Otherwise, I will personally lead an army to conquer Mount Huashan and destroy his Huashan Taoism."
Listening to Li Huan's words, Meng Hui, Luo Gan and others couldn't help but feel refreshed.
You must know that the name of the Huashan Sect is quite resounding in the world. Although they usually look down on these people in the world, one thing they have to admit is that there are indeed some people in the world.
It's very powerful, and it's something they don't want to mess with.
Although the government has always held a suppressive attitude towards Jianghu sects, after the initial suppression, they found that it was difficult to completely eradicate these Jianghu people no matter how hard they tried. At the beginning of the founding of the country, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed them vigorously.
However, even with the power of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang at that time, he was ultimately unable to completely eliminate the existence of people in the world.
Since then, although the power of Jianghu has gradually declined, the imperial court has also changed the strategy of directly sending out troops to encircle and kill, and instead supports the two major sects of Shaolin and Wudang to complete the suppression and supervision of Jianghu.
For this reason, the royal family personally ordered the establishment of a family temple in Wudang Mountain, and even dispatched specialized officials to manage it. Since then, the imperial court's attitude towards Jianghu has continued.
Li Huan was able to say something that would level the Huashan Mountain. In the eyes of Meng Hui and Luo Gan, this was already a sign of protecting one's shortcomings.
After all, the world has been at peace for a long time, and many officials in the imperial court do not want to provoke a Jianghu sect with cutting-edge military force. It is easy to destroy the opponent. They are afraid that if so many powerful people escape, then people all over the world will attack and kill the imperial court.
Even if the official is able to kill the opponent in the end, in the end it will do more harm than good.
After looking at a few people, Li Huan said: "Go and notify Commander Dong Huan and ask him to release the blockade on the four gates of Fuzhou and allow the people to come and go freely."
Meng Hui heard this and said: "Sir, is it a little early to let go of the blockade now? After all, there are still some remnants of the rebels who have not been found. If we open the city gate like this, I'm afraid they will escape."
Li Huan glanced at Meng Hui and said, "How many people do you think we can find in the end even if the blockade continues and we spread out all our people?"
Meng Hui couldn't help but his face froze, and he had to admit one thing, that is, these escaped thieves may have been hiding for a long time. As local snakes, they are either hiding in extremely secret places, or someone is covering them up, let alone them.
There are only so many manpower. Even if the available manpower is increased several times, it is impossible to find all these people.
Waving his hand, Li Huan said with a smile: "Fuzhou City has been closed for a few days, and so many things have happened in just a few days. The hearts of the people in this city have been tense for a long time. Now that the main culprits have been executed,
, then it’s time to open the city gates wide and eliminate the tense and terrifying atmosphere in the city. Otherwise, if time goes by, if it is secretly guided by someone with intentions, there is no guarantee that it will not trigger a civil unrest. "
As he spoke, Li Huan's expression showed a solemn look.
When Meng Hui and others heard what Li Huan said, their expressions changed greatly, and they immediately said to Li Huan: "Your Excellency has a far-sighted vision, and my subordinates did not expect this. I will go and inform Commander Dong and ask him to open the city gate."
"
In Fuzhou City, in a remote house, several figures were gathering in a small living room.
If anyone who knew them saw these people, they would definitely be very surprised, because these people were clearly one of the leaders of the families who led their servants to besiege the prefect's Yamen under the instigation of the old man.
It’s not that these lives are high, but that the eggs of these families cannot be put in one basket. The core members of each family hid early, neither staying in the mansion nor following the large group of people to siege the mansion.
, what you should be prepared for is that if you fail to attack the government office, someone will take the blame.
At this moment, several people looked at the old man standing there and said, "Old man, we did what you asked us to do. What should we do next?"
Qian Ren is a very capable elder of the Qian family. He has always assisted Qian Yong in managing various businesses of the Qian family. It can be said that he is very capable. Just in case, Qian Yong and Qian Li, Qian Yi
After discussion, Qian Ren was asked to take some people and hide them.
The rest of the people also looked at the old man.
The old man looked very calm and said calmly: "Then just wait, the seeds have been sown, and we just need to wait for the time to break through the ground and sprout."
Someone heard this and said impatiently: "Old guy, the young god is mysterious. Previously, our families listened to your idea and led people to besiege the government office. In the end, they were massacred by Li Huan. Now
Even the family has been ruined, and now you come to us again. If you don't tell us today that you are ugly, you can go and bury the dead people of each family."
There was a slight cough, and someone hurriedly spoke to the angry man: "Brother He Tong, calm down, we can gather here thanks to the boss, right? I believe the boss will give us an explanation.
.”
As he said this, the man cupped his hands towards the old man and said with a smile: "Sir, do you think so?"
Hearing this, the old man sneered and said: "One is a good person and the other is a bad person? I don't like you people. Just tell me what you want to know. What's the point of playing these tricks with me?"
Everyone was enlightened by the old man, but they didn't show any embarrassment, they just stared at the old man.
The old man said with a bit of disdain: "Didn't I ask you to spread rumors? As long as Li Huan closes the city gate for a few more days, the fear and uneasiness of the people in the city will accumulate more and more. At that time, as long as you
Taking the lead in secret and detonating a civil unrest affecting more than 100,000 people in the city is definitely not a problem. You said that if such a big chaos occurs, what will happen to Li Huan?"
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically, and they all looked at the old man with awe and fear.
This old man is so cruel that he wants to use the whole city's people to provoke a civil unrest. They are not fools. If this civil unrest breaks out, it will involve hundreds of thousands of people in the huge city of Fuzhou.
At that time, we don’t know how many people will die in this turmoil.
As for Li Huan's fate, even a fool can imagine that even if Li Huan did not die in the civil unrest and could escape from the city, he would not live long.
Such a huge turmoil will definitely shock the world and the court. At that time, no matter how much the emperor favors him, he must push Li Huan out and behead him in public to give an explanation to the people of the world.
It can be said that at that time, let alone Li Huan being the emperor's favorite, even if Li Huan was a member of the royal family, he would not be able to escape death.
The eyes of He Tong, Qian Ren and others were full of horror, and they soon laughed and said: "Okay, okay, this plan is very clever. If the old master's plan can be successful, no one in the world can save him Li Huan
, I am waiting for everyone who died unjustly, and this blood feud can finally be avenged!"
Qian Ren picked up the tea cup, a strange look flashed in his eyes, he looked at the old man, and suddenly said: "Sir, can you tell us who you are and why you are helping us deal with Li Huan?"
This should be what everyone wanted to know the most, so when they saw Qian Ren suddenly speaking, they all looked at the old man.
The abilities and methods displayed by the old man all showed that the old man's identity was extraordinary, and ordinary people did not have such a terrifying overall view and vision. Therefore, everyone was very curious about the old man's identity.
The old man frowned, looked at Qian Ren, and said with a look of confusion in his eyes: "It doesn't seem to be important who I am, the important thing is that we have a common enemy."
He Tong shook his head and said: "Sir, what you say is too insincere. We can say that we are cooperating with you with our heads up, but you are not even willing to reveal your identity. How can this make us feel at ease?
"
As he spoke, He Tong smiled at the people around him and said, "Tell me, is this the truth?"
"Yes, yes, since we are cooperating, we should know each other's ins and outs!"
"That's right. Tell us about the last time you met with everyone and created a mourning hall. This time you changed the place again. It's so mysterious. We are really confused!"
All of a sudden, everyone was complaining and just looking at the old man, creating a scene where the old man was in a state of anger.
The old man looked very calm, as if he had not heard what these people said. He slowly picked up the teacup and said, "Everyone, I'm tired!"
Everyone couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Is this serving tea to see off guests?
The place where they hid before was quite secretive, but even so, most of them were found by the people sent by the old man.
What does this mean? Everyone present is not a fool. It is clear that the other party has sent someone to spy on them secretly.
Even their hiding place is being monitored. How can this make them feel at ease and have a sense of security?
Although there were a few people who did not come, they were not sure whether it was because they were hiding secretly enough that they had not been found, or for other reasons. But just when they saw other people present, everyone understood it tacitly.
I made up my mind to find out the identity of this old man no matter what this time.
I thought that under the combined pressure of so many of them, the other party would definitely not be able to hold on and would have to be honest with them. However, I never expected that this old man would not act according to common sense. Instead of revealing his identity, he
Serve tea directly to guests.
Someone with a hot temper slapped the table and stood up, shouting at the old man: "You old thing..."
With a flash of sword light, a man in black clothes was seen holding a gleaming sword against the man's throat. The cold and sharp sword tip almost pierced the man's skin.
It was cold and tingling. The man never expected that such an experience would happen, and he was frightened out of his wits.
As a conditioned reflex, he took a step back and looked at the big man in black with a pale face, his eyes full of fear, while the old man sat there as if he had not seen this scene.
The rest of the people were not fools. When they saw this scene, everyone knew that it was impossible to know the identity of the old man this time. There was no point in staying here anymore. Moreover, the old man had already shown his intention to see off the guests. If he continued
If they stay here, who knows if the man in black will get violent and hurt others, which will be detrimental to them.
"Walk!"
Everyone stood up and was about to leave when suddenly they heard a bang and saw the door being kicked open fiercely.
This sudden change shocked everyone, especially when they saw the situation at the door, their faces suddenly changed, full of fear.
Some people even exclaimed: "Li Huan, why are you here!"
"Run away quickly, the Jin Yiwei is here!"
I saw a group of Jin Yiwei rushing into the courtyard first. The crossbows in their hands had locked everyone present. Not only the Jin Yiwei who rushed in from the door, but also the high walls around the yard. With the sound of kicking the door,
Figures suddenly appeared in the sound.
It can be said that this courtyard has been heavily surrounded at this moment. Under the blockade, not even a fly can fly out.
Li Huan slowly walked into the courtyard, his eyes swept over everyone, and finally landed on the old man who did not move in the living room.
The old man didn't seem to be panicked at all. Even when Li Huan barged in, the old man didn't get up. He just sat there and looked at Li Huan from a distance.
The man in black stood beside the old man with a sword in hand, his whole body tensed, obviously feeling a great threat from Li Huan.
Li Huan said slowly: "Capture everyone, but those who resist will be killed without mercy!"
The Jinyi guards around him all responded and immediately stepped forward to take someone away.
I heard someone shouting: "If you want to arrest your grandpa, don't even think about it!"
Someone wanted to escape as soon as he jumped. Just by looking at his strong body, you can tell that this person has practiced some kung fu. Unfortunately, under such heavy surroundings, as soon as he moved, he heard the sound of bowstrings.
Whoops, whoops
Several crossbow arrows were shot out in unison. In the blink of an eye, the man who had just jumped up was hit by several arrows and fell to the ground with a thud. The gurgling blood dyed the ground red on the spot.
Originally, some people wanted to imitate this person, but after seeing what happened to this person, the courage they had just mustered up disappeared in an instant.
Even though he might be beheaded if he was caught, it would still be better than being shot dead on the spot by the Jin Yiwei.
Li Huan ignored these people who were unwilling to make the slightest move, and could only let the Jin Yiwei step forward to capture them. Instead, he slowly stepped forward and walked into the living room, as if he were meeting old friends again.
He looked at the old man and said, "Master Cai, we meet again!"
Everyone who was captured by the Jin Yiwei outside happened to hear Li Huan's words at this moment. They were just stunned for a moment. When they reacted, they all looked at the old man with stunned eyes.
In Fuzhou City, the only one who could be called Lord Cai by Li Huan was Cai Wen, the prosecutor who dared to do the crazy thing of besieging and killing the imperial envoy.
Didn't it mean that Cai Wen was dead? Why did he appear here again and attract so many royal guards? Could it be that this was a trap from the beginning?
Everyone was obviously confused by the resurrection of Cai Wen, and various thoughts flashed through their minds, including whether Cai Wen and Li Huan were acting together for them, in order to lure them out and catch them all.
All were born.
The old man stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, and the next moment he saw a familiar face appear. Who could it be if it wasn't Cai Wen?
Cai Wen looked at Li Huan with a smile on his face, and even helped Li Huan pour a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Li Huan.
Li Huan glanced at it, smiled slightly and said, "Li doesn't dare to taste Mr. Cai's tea!"
Cai Wen laughed loudly when he heard this and said, "Master Li is really cautious. Are you still worried that I might poison the tea?"
Li Huan nodded slowly and said: "Master Cai even deceived me before. Who knows if there is really poison in your tea."
As he spoke, Li Huan flicked his finger, and a strong gust of wind hit the tea cup, causing it to fall to the ground.
Cai Wen said with a regretful look: "It's such a pity that Mr. Li doesn't want to taste such top-quality tea."
Li Huan looked at Cai Wen and said: "Master Cai really worked hard to deal with Li. I just don't know if Master Cai expected that we would meet again so soon."
Cai Wen put down the tea cup in his hand, glanced at the group of captured people outside and said, "I just didn't expect that some of these people would so soon ask for credit from you regardless of the blood feud."
Li Huan nodded and said: "Yes, even Li didn't expect it. I just don't know how you can escape this time, Mr. Cai?"
As he spoke, Li Huan smiled and said: "This time I will order someone to cut Mr. Cai into several pieces. If Mr. Cai can still survive, Li will admit it!"
Cai Wen laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "If Cai is really chopped into several pieces, then he will really die and cannot die anymore."
As he spoke, Cai Wen showed a strange smile and said, "Guess what kind of gift I have prepared for you, Mr. Li?"
Li Huan raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "Based on Mr. Cai's calculations, it is impossible to be prepared for this scene, so Li is also very curious, what preparations do you have?"
Cai Wen looked at Li Huan, a crazy look flashed in his eyes and said, "Do you still remember what I said back then?"
Li Huan frowned and shook his head: "Master Cai and Mr. Li have said many things, how can Mr. Li guess?"
Cai Wen leaned forward slightly, with a crazy look in his eyes, staring at Li Huan and said: "I said, if I had to do it again, I would prepare tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder for you, Mr. Li!
"
As he spoke, Cai Wen laughed crazily and stood up, pointing to the yard and saying: "Just below this yard, tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder are buried. For you, Mr. Li, I don't know how much effort it took to get such a
There’s a lot of gunpowder, it’s all here, how about it, aren’t you surprised!”
When the people outside heard what Cai Wen said, they all looked horrified and looked at the land under their feet. If it was really what Cai Wen said, it would mean that they were being killed under their feet.
Tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder are buried. Once it explodes, I'm afraid everyone here will be instantly turned into fly ash in the big explosion.
Cai Wen just looked at Li Huan, with a look of madness and expectation in his eyes. He seemed to want to see fear and terror on Li Huan's face. He even wanted to see Li Huan begging him.
