Start with Baihuguan

Under the guidance of Lin Pingzhi, several people walked through a pavilion, and saw a figure sitting in a gazebo leisurely tasting tea from a distance. It was not Li Huan, whoever it was.

Although it has been known for a long time that Li Huan's strength is amazing, there will be no accidents, but when Chen Ke, Xu Ying and the others saw Li Huan sitting there safe and sound, they couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

You must know that their current honor and disgrace can be said to be closely related to Li Huan. As long as Li Huan is safe and sound, their prosperity and wealth will not be affected.

However, once something happened to Li Huan, they didn't even need to think about how the officials above the court would treat them who had already been branded with Li Huan.

So to be honest, there really aren't many people who are more concerned about Li Huan's safety than they are.

When he got close, Pang Hui immediately took a step forward and bowed to Li Huan, saying: "The next official pays homage to my lord, and I see that my lord is safe. I am really blessed by God. My lord is blessed with great blessings. How can a group of youngsters hurt me?"

Li Huan just glanced at Pang Hui indifferently and said: "I'm fine, I'm just a group of gangsters, but Commander Pang has to be more careful these few days, these gangsters don't have any scruples, if It would be bad if these people went to trouble Commander Pang.

Pang Hui was taken aback when he heard the words, and then his expression changed slightly.

He didn't know that there were many lawless people in the Jianghu, and the possibility that Li Huan said was not absent. When he thought that some people in the Jianghu might secretly assassinate him, Pang Hui naturally felt a little worried.

But soon Pang Hui calmed down, at least he was the commander who controlled the power of soldiers and horses in a place, so he still had some guts.

With a straight look on his face, Pang Hui said to Li Huan: "Thank you for reminding me, my lord. If someone really came to assassinate the lower officials without knowing the heights and depths, the lower officials will definitely take them down and vent my anger on my lord's behalf."

Seeing Pang Hui's flattering appearance in front of Li Huan, Xu Ying stepped forward and said, "Master Hou, since Jin Yiwei cannot guarantee the safety of Lord Hou, then this subordinate thinks that the defense of Zhuyuan should be left to the subordinates to be responsible... …

Speaking of which, Xu Ying glanced at Chen Ke, the meaning in her eyes was self-evident.

Chen Ke's expression remained unchanged, and he bowed to Li Huan and said: "This subordinate is so incompetent that I disturbed my lord by a group of gangsters. I implore my lord to give this subordinate a chance to make meritorious deeds."

No matter what the reason was, Jin Yiwei failed to keep all the people who assassinated Li Huan this time.

Li Huan motioned for a few people to sit down, and after they were seated, Li Huan smiled and said: It was just an ordinary accident, you don't need to be so nervous.

After comforting a few people, Li Huan's eyes fell on Xu Ying and said with a light smile: Uncle Weiyuan, your duty is to take good care of the confiscated gold and silver property for me. You are asking.

The property confiscated among nearly a hundred local tycoons and officials is definitely an astronomical figure. You must know that these are all wealthy Yangzhou prefectures. Which one of these local tyrants is not rich and rich? You must know So far, neither Jinyiwei nor the local guards have been able to clean up the property confiscated by these powerful families.

...

Jinyiwei, local guards, and the elite soldiers commanded by Xu Ying, the three parties supervised each other, and Xu Ying and Chen Ang personally supervised it.

After hearing Li Huan's words, Xu Ying immediately looked upright and said: Don't worry, Lord Hou, there will be no accidents with Chen Ang watching over there.

Li Huan waved his hands and said: "Money touches people's hearts. It's tens of millions of property. Even if all of you are staring at me, you are worried that something will happen. You don't have to worry about things here. Bring someone to me immediately." Just go back and keep an eye on those confiscated properties.

How could Xu Ying not know the importance of those confiscated properties? Hearing Li Huan's words at this moment, she just

After hesitating for a while, after glancing at Chen Ke and Lin Pingzhi, he clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Your subordinate takes orders."

Xu Ying strode away, and soon in the bamboo garden, Xu Ying and the group of elite cavalry he brought could be heard galloping away.

Li Huan's eyes fell on Pang Hui who was at the side, he also waved his hands and said: Commander Pang also went out of the city to watch over the criminals for me. If there is any accident, I will kill people.

Pang Hui's body trembled slightly, his expression became righteous and he said: "The next official takes orders."

After Pang Hui and Xu Ying were dismissed, only Chen Ke was left in the pavilion.

After glancing at Chen Ke, Li Huan slowly said: "I can't blame you for what happened this time. The background of that group of people is not simple."

Chen Kelai already knew what happened before, and Jin Yiwei also captured several people who rescued Huang Boliu alive, so the identities of Huang Boliu, Ren Yingying and his party were already interrogated.

Hearing Li Huan speak at this time, Chen Ke looked at Li Huan and said, "My lord, the Sun Moon God Sect can be regarded as having a bad reputation in the world, and the woman who escaped is the saint Ren Yingying of the Sun Moon God Sect. These people came for Xiang Wentian, the Left Envoy of the Sun Moon Sect who was captured by us.

Speaking of which, Chen Ke hesitated for a moment and said: Of course, it is not ruled out that some powerful people in the places we captured in Yangzhou City colluded with people from the Sun Moon God Sect, but this possibility is not great, after all, it is only because we captured Without the words of some tyrants in Yangzhou Prefecture, the Sun Moon God Sect would not send its revered saint to come in person.

Listening to Chen Ke's analysis, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Huan's mouth.

Based on the information that Jin Yiwei has, it is naturally impossible to think that although Ren Yingying is a saint of the Sun Moon God Sect with a noble status, one person is less than ten thousand, but this saint of the Sun Moon God Sect is not the same as Dongfang Bubai. One heart.

Chen Ke continued: My lord said earlier that a group of thieves would come back again, and I think the other party came for the bright left envoy.The subordinates will prepare a net and wait for this group of thieves to come to die.

Li Huan slightly nodded and said: "I will leave this matter to you Jin Yiwei."

While speaking, Li Huan suddenly said: Regarding the criminal evidence of Xu Lin and others, have you already sorted out the interrogation?

Although only a few days have passed, normally speaking, it is normal for such a major case to take several months or even more than half a year.

When Chen Ke heard the words, he immediately said: My lord, although Xu Lin and the others said that some people were stubborn and refused to confess, the vast majority of them could not stand the torture of our Jin Yiwei. It is possible to sort out the crimes and evidence of these people.

...

Li Huan nodded when he heard this, and said: Although it is important to guard against the attack of the Sun Moon God Sect, the most important thing is to interrogate Xu Lin and others for their crimes and evidence in the shortest possible time.

Time passed by little by little, and it was half a month in a flash.

With the passage of time, Yangzhou Mansion has restored its former prosperity and has not been greatly affected.

In the bamboo garden, the cold wind was bleak, and many Jin Yiwei could be seen around.

Since Jinyiwei failed to keep Ren Yingying and her party behind, Chen Ke and other officials of Jinyiwei stepped up the protection of the bamboo garden and recruited many experts to come.

It can be said that there are no less than hundreds of Jinyiwei elites around the bamboo garden alone, and there are as many as a dozen of them who are comparable to the first-class players in the Jianghu.

Originally, there were not so many Jinyiwei troops who went south with Li Huan this time, but now it has been more than half a month since Li Huan arrived in Yangzhou Mansion.

After being ridiculed by Xu Ying, Chen Ke and other Jinyiwei officials could be said to hold back their anger, and directly dispatched a large number of Jinyiwei elites to Yangzhou Mansion to listen to them.

With the arrival of this group of Jinyiwei elites, it can be said that the manpower of Jinyiwei has suddenly become abundant, and some people have even been dispatched to interrogate and sort out the crimes of the people involved in the case, which has greatly improved the progress of the interrogation.

In front of the gate of the bamboo garden, Chen Ke and several officials were instructing a dozen brocade
Captain Yiwei carried several large boxes from the carriage into the bamboo garden.

When Li Huan saw Chen Ke and the others, he glanced over the big boxes and said slowly: "Chen Ke, could it be that the crimes against Xu Lin and others have been sorted out?"

Chen Kedang immediately said: "My lord, including Xu Lin, the crimes committed by a total of [-] criminals, including Xu Lin, have all been tried clearly, and my subordinates are here to make an appointment."

While speaking, Chen Ke ordered his subordinates to open the big boxes one by one, and immediately saw a box of cases appearing in Li Huan's sight.

Although Li Huan said that he had read the case files about Xu Lin and others in bits and pieces before, this big case not only involved high-level officials of Yangzhou Prefecture, but more importantly, Li Huan also took the opportunity to attack all the people in Yangzhou Prefecture. Local tyrants take action, and the direct result is the expansion of the case.

Of course, this is not to say that Li Huan wanted to create unjust cases. It can be said that none of the local tyrants who were arrested was wronged. Just based on the crimes committed by these people, even if they ransacked and killed them all, it would be considered cheap for these people.

Cao Yu went forward and took out some case files and presented them to Li Huan. Li Huan flipped through them casually, nodded slightly and said: "Very good, immediately send someone to send these case files to the capital for review by His Majesty and the cabinet."

Chen Ke responded immediately, and then ordered people to take these cases away and send them to the capital.

Li Huan got up, walked out of the living room with his hands behind his back, a sharp look flashed in his eyes and said: "Chen Ke, how do you think the guilds above the imperial court will deal with people like Xu Lin?"

Chen Ke hesitated a little when he heard the words and said: According to the national law, it should be a case of ransacking the family and exterminating the family to make an example of others.

As he said that, Chen Ke looked at Li Huan and said: "Is it possible that your lord is worried that something will happen to the court?"

Speaking of this, Chen Ke said with some surprise: The crimes committed by these people are serious crimes of treason. Don't have the guts.

...

Li Huan chuckled lightly and said with a bit of murderous intent: Whoever dares to speak for these people, I don't mind labeling them as anti-thief accomplices.

Walking slowly among the pavilions, Li Huan said slowly: "Xu Lin and other prisoners' relatives, plus those local tyrants who were captured, even if only his relatives were implicated, thousands of people would be involved." .

Chen Ke's face turned serious and he said: Among the three clans, a total of 390 people involved in the case should be executed!

Li Huan couldn't help but pause, and with a dignified look on his face, he said with emotion: "There are nearly ten thousand people. You said that after this case is over, I am going to confirm the name of that butcher!"

Chen Ke, Lin Pingzhi, Cao Yu, and Ma Ming who were following Li Huan couldn't help but feel their hearts sink.

How could they not know that once Li Huan ordered the execution of these people involved in the case, nearly ten thousand people would be killed, and the world would definitely be shaken.

Even if everyone in the world knows that these people should be killed, Li Huan's reputation will definitely be affected. By then, the notoriety of a mere butcher may be light.

It can even be said that such a big case will definitely be famous in history, but everyone present knew that if so many people were killed at once, even in the history books, Li Huan might not have a good reputation.

Lin Pingzhi couldn't help looking at Li Huan with a bit of worry: Sir, since we have already heard the case clearly, why don't we hand it over to the imperial court for handling...

Chen Ke, Ma Ming and the others also looked at Li Huan, and Lin Pingzhi's suggestion might be a solution. As long as the case is handed over to the court and the emperor, then no matter what the court decides, then Li Huan will Don't use it to bear the notoriety of indiscriminate killing.

Li Huan couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Li Huan's laughter was full of heartiness and fearlessness. He paused. Li Huan looked back at Lin Pingzhi and Chen Keji and said: "You think if I push this case to the imperial court, the people above the imperial court will be able to deal with it." What will those dukes do?
Before Lin Pingzhi and the others could open their mouths, a look of disdain flashed in Li Huan's eyes and said: They will definitely hand over the final decision on this case to His Majesty. No one will be harmed in the slightest.

Chen Ke smiled wryly when he heard the words
Dao: If Your Majesty makes an order to deal with these people, I'm afraid they will be regarded as tyrannical kings. If you don't punish them severely, wouldn't it be cheaper for these people who deserve death.According to the official's understanding of those bosses, they will definitely hand over this hot potato to His Majesty for disposal, and pick them all up.

Lin Pingzhi opened his eyes wide and said: "Ah, in this way, if we hand over the case to the imperial court, wouldn't we be cheating His Majesty?"
Li Huan stopped in his tracks, looked towards the direction of the capital, and said with a stern look in his eyes: "It's just a mere notoriety, and Li is responsible for it."
