Near noon, outside Xiapinan City, near the execution ground set up, there was already a sea of people.
Yesterday, only the people in Xiapi City got the news at first. Soon after, the news spread that Emperor Lu Xuan arrived in Xiapi, and the emperor wanted to personally execute the corrupt officials who harmed Xuzhou, as well as the big officials who harmed the people.
Families and powerful businessmen.
Such news spread, completely detonating public opinion around Xiapi and arousing countless expectations.
The people nearby rushed towards Xiapi one after another.
Countless people are waiting to be killed.
"Your Majesty is here!"
Suddenly, a loud voice came. First the soldiers cleared the way, and then Lu Xuan rode a horse, and under the protection of Xu Chu and other imperial guards, he walked steadily towards the execution ground.
Behind Lu Xuan were prison cars.
Each prison car imprisoned prisoners, who were officials involved in the case, heads of large families, or businessmen who colluded with the army.
There were sixty people in front and behind, which made the queue very long.
Ordinary people do not focus on these prisoners.
The people were paying attention to Lu Xuan.
The stability of Xuzhou and the fact that the people of Xuzhou can grow sweet potatoes and corn, have enough food and clothing, and live a stable and stable life are all due to Emperor Shenwu Lu Xuan. Without Emperor Lu Xuan, the people's current life would not be possible.
Now, Lu Xuan is here to seek justice again.
So much so that after the people got excited, someone took the lead and said: "Long live your Majesty!"
"Long live your Majesty!"
Then, someone started shouting.
"Long live your Majesty!"
"Long live your Majesty!"
…
More and more people gathered together, shouting from the bottom of their hearts. Moreover, the people's eyes looked at Lu Xuan with even more reverence and gratitude towards Lu Xuan.
The world has been in turmoil for decades, but it was Lu Xuan who turned the tide.
So much so that the shouts soared into the sky.
When the people cheered, Lu Xuan took the lead to come to the high platform of the execution ground. He looked at the people around him and the pairs of cheering hands, and his heart surged. Even though Lu Xuan was already the emperor of a country and had great power, he looked at the people's sincere
Lu Xuan was also greatly touched by the cry from his heart.
These common people are the most simple people in the world. All they want is to have enough food and clothing, and they just hope that when there are floods, droughts, and locust plagues, they can get relief from the court so that they can survive the disaster.
Human needs are not constant, but are consistent with the general environment.
In the general environment, the people do not have enough to eat and wear, so the majority of the people's demands are just to eat and wear warm. As for the so-called entertainment, the so-called better food, clothing, housing, transportation, and even entertainment, that is
Distant things.
Only by doing it step by step will the demand become greater.
Lu Xuan came back from time travel, and Zhulu Tianxia has been completed. His current goal is not only to expand the territory. The bigger goal is to let all the Chinese people under his rule live a stable life and let all the people have food to eat.
In the future, people will slowly be able to read.
Lu Xuan allowed the people to cheer and raised his hands to press down. Gradually, the cheers around him stopped and the people became quiet.
A pair of eyes fell on Lu Xuan.
Lu Yu also stood in the crowd and watched.
Previously, he traveled with Zheng Xuan and experienced it firsthand as a bystander.
Following Lu Xuan now, I have personal experience, and I can understand the situation and problems I am facing, and I have received Lu Xuan's words and deeds.
Everything is different.
Now, seeing Lu Xuan's arrangements with his own eyes, Lu Yu is also completely enlightened little by little. Many things are clear to onlookers, and they sound logical when they are said, but in fact, when they are actually implemented, it is easy to be blinded.
Lu Yu had the opportunity to get in touch little by little, and many of the concepts that Zheng Xuan instilled in him back then became useful.
Everything is confirming each other.
Lu Xuan also saw Lu Yu's eyes that were thirsty for knowledge. He withdrew his gaze and said loudly: "Fellows, after I unified the world, the court received news that there were Japanese people in the southeast of our Ming Dynasty who refused to obey Wang Hua. Otherwise,
Come and attack my Ming Dynasty if you think of your own strength."
"So, I personally led the troops to conquer it."
"Now, the Japanese have been eliminated."
"After I led my troops back to Nanjing, before my butt was still hot, I got news from Xuzhou. The local garrison started doing business, colluded with businessmen and officials, united the big families, wantonly oppressed the people, and usurped your interests.
"
"This is never allowed."
Lu Xuan waved his hand and said loudly: "So, I personally took people to Xuzhou to deal with this matter."
boom!!
The scene was instantly boiling.
The people were excited and kept expressing their emotions, shouting loudly for His Majesty, Long Live Your Majesty. They felt that they had met the Eternal Mingjun, and even more felt that the Shenwu Emperor Lu Xuan was supporting the people.
Lu Yu's vision is different.
He also had different considerations, analyzing Lu Xuan's words.
These words seemed to encourage the people and support the people. In fact, they were serious. Lu Xuan's statement was that he went to the Japanese country to fight, which meant that the holy king did not know what was going on in the country.
In this situation, Lu Xuan should be cleared of responsibility.
Then, when the sage returned to the court and received the news, he immediately put an end to the local chaos and decided to serve the people.
This is the intention of the opening statement.
We need to make it clear to the people that the emperor is a sage. It is not that the emperor was deceived by villains, nor that the emperor delayed his arrival until now. It is because the emperor has something to do. The greatest possibility is to make the people agree.
Lu Yu was thoughtful, thinking in his heart.
After Lu Xuan allowed the people to cheer, he raised his hand again and lowered his hand. When the people's cheers stopped, he pointed at the prison cars one by one. At this time, all the criminals were escorted out one by one.
Lu Xuan said loudly: "Today, all the people who were executed have been brought here. Among them are Xuzhou governor Shi Duxian, Xuzhou soldier Cao Xu Zheng, and Xuzhou official Cao Wangguan..."
Lu Xuan continued talking one by one, and every time he mentioned an official, it caused a shock.
All the people were extremely shocked.
Everyone was shocked.
Unexpectedly, among the people killed, there were high-ranking officials like Governor Xu and many officials. In addition, the patriarchs and wealthy businessmen of big families were also captured and all wanted to be killed.
Such a result convinced the people and was even more shocking.
No one expected that the scope of disposal would be so wide.
After a brief introduction, Lu Xuan said again: "In addition, Cao Bao, the instigator this time, has been killed on the spot. As for the Cao family, their family has been confiscated and exterminated. In addition, the participating generals Zhao An, Zhou Peng and Pang Chen and other six soldiers
Hundreds of people have been killed."
"The army has been purged once."
"In addition to the army, the same goes for the government. Xuzhou Governor Lu Dai failed to fulfill his responsibilities. He watched Cao Bao oppress the people and was unable to make decisions for the people. Although he did not participate, his inaction is a crime."
"Lü Dai was exiled to Zhuya County, Jiaozhou."
Lu Xuan flicked his sleeves and said loudly: "All those who commit crimes will not be able to escape and will be killed."
boom!!!
It was even more popular near the execution ground.
The people were so excited that they shouted long live His Majesty. The rhythm of the scene, from Lu Xuan's initial introduction, to the announcement of the list, and finally the announcement of the disposition of Cao Bao, Lu Dai and others, was getting higher and higher step by step.
Lu Xuan's treatment allowed the people to see his attitude and the emperor's love for his people.
This is Lu Xuan's purpose.
Not only must we bring order to the local area, but we must also be able to control and guide people's hearts.
Lu Yu looked at it, his eyes shining with enlightenment. When he observed closely and gained a deep understanding, he realized the difference and understood the truth.
"Beat!"
Lu Xuan allowed the people to cheer and gave the order.
The order was given, and the prisoners were dragged up and chopped to death one by one. With screams of pain, corpses were laid out on the execution ground with blood flowing. Although the scene was bloody, the constant killing made the people excited.
Good kill!
Corrupt officials should be killed!
Powerful businessmen should be killed!
Illegal officers deserve to be killed even more!
Everything must be killed, completely killed.
Lu Xuan watched this scene quietly, paying attention to Lu Yu's direction from time to time. Seeing that Lu Yu's expression was as usual, he applauded in his heart.
In terms of teaching his children, Zheng Xuan did not teach them to be nerds, nor did he turn Lu Yu into a good old man. Instead, he taught his children to be wise and knowledgeable, with extremely high understanding. All of this is inseparable from Zheng Xuan's painstaking efforts.
Over the years, Zheng Xuan has sacrificed a lot.
Lu Xuan withdrew his gaze. Not long after, after all the prisoners were killed, the people shouted, "Well done." They kept shouting, venting their inner frustrations, and it was as if they were cutting off from the past.
After Lu Xuan allowed the people to cheer, he once again signaled the people to be quiet. When all the people calmed down, Lu Xuan waved to Shi Yi, and Shi Yi immediately understood that his opportunity had come.
He took a deep breath, stood up and walked forward, striding to stand in front of Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan pointed at Shi Yi and said loudly: "The person in front of me, named Shi Yi, serves as the chief secretary of Xuzhou. Shi Yi has clearly opposed the military business incident from the beginning, hoping to prevent Cao Bao from leading the army to do business.
matter."
"Because of Lu Dai's weak character, he was unable to deal with it in time. But Yi is different. He is the chief secretary of Kuai Liang, the old governor of Xuzhou, who has been assisting you when Xuzhou was stable."
"Back then, he had been assisting Kuai Liang and had rich experience."
"This time when the army was doing business, Shiyi played the mainstay role, which shows his vision and ability. Today's Xuzhou urgently needs someone who is familiar with Xuzhou's situation, has more determination, and has a strategic vision to govern Xuzhou."
"This person is Yi."
Lu Xuan looked like he trusted Shi Yi and said loudly: "Next, I will arrange for Shi Yi to serve as the governor of Xuzhou. He will be responsible for bringing order to the chaos. Next, I will let Shi Yi speak."
It was Yi who saluted Lu Xuan and then stood up.
Shiyi's speech was neither humble nor arrogant, showing the demeanor of a general. He first thanked Lu Xuan for his trust, and then mentioned some things and ideas about Kuai Liang's governance of Xuzhou, and then slowly mentioned some of his own ideas about governing Xuzhou.
While Shiyi was speaking, Lu Xuan came down, walked to Lu Yu, and asked, "Yu'er, what do you think?"
Lu Yu said: "My father's arrangement is very reasonable, and I admire it. Every move is a chess move. Every move is interconnected. And in the end, ending with Shiyi's speech also provides a step forward for Shiyi."
"
Lu Xuan nodded and said: "As long as you understand, let's go, let's go back to the camp to rest, and leave the rest to Shi Yi."
"Here!"
Lu Yu agreed.
Lu Xuan took Lu Yu, Xu Chu, Yang Xiu and others and left quietly.
When Lu Xuan had just returned to the Chinese army's tent, Zhou Yu came and said, "Your Majesty, I got the news about this public execution and it was very successful. The people's hearts are boiling and their hearts are at peace."
Lu Xuandao: "Because Xuzhou is generally stable, it is not difficult. My arrangement is just to further appease people's hearts."
Zhou Yu nodded and said: "The army has been adjusted, but after handling the garrison in Xuzhou, I have some ideas to report to His Majesty."
