The Three Kingdoms: The strategist will stop, and Rome will be unified

Chapter 309 Hold the festival and obey the order of the emperor

Ju Shou outside heard it with emotion: This is for the pigs, I have to pay for my old life, people are gone, what do you want pigs for?
Your Majesty just wants to let people raise pigs and let every family eat meat. If the people lose their old lives because of this, shouldn't His Majesty be sad?
So Jushou immediately asked someone to record the incident.

He walked in personally, and the couple saw that he was wearing a black official uniform, so they knew that it was a senior official coming, so they immediately greeted him: "I have seen the official."

The two restrained, and Ju Shou said kindly, "You feed the pigs, but in the end you don't eat the meat and sell them directly?"

The old woman immediately became excited: "My son can't afford to marry a wife because of lack of money. Once these six pigs are sold, maybe they will be enough to marry him in the end!"

But the old man sighed: "My lord, the rich households everywhere have lowered the price of pork. In order to lower the price, they have been letting out their mouths, saying that pork is cheap and worthless, but this old lady has gone crazy." If I don’t eat it myself, I’ll give the sweet potatoes to the pigs, I’m afraid that after half a year of tossing around, it will only be sold for a few pennies, and people will die of anger if they don’t make any money.”

Ju Shou frowned: "Don't you know that the imperial court will charge a high price for pigs?"

The old couple looked bewildered: "The county magistrate didn't say anything?"

Ju Shou immediately understood that the county magistrate wanted to suppress the news, and in the end he bought it at a low price and sold it to the court at a high price, and together with those big families, he made a lot of money!
"His heart can be punished!" Jushou was furious immediately, and then thought, maybe this is not the case in this place!
Then Jushou left without saying a word, and went straight back to Xuchang and Zhao Feng to report.

After Zhao Feng heard this, his complexion sank immediately, and he thought to himself, no wonder the fortune of the country does not increase if this move continues, the original problem lies here, if the administration of officials is not rectified, the Great Wei Empire will be hollowed out by these moths!
"The decree is that it is not allowed to feed pigs and not feed people in various places. If anyone dies of starvation, the pigs will be confiscated! Secondly, anyone who dares to fail to convey the imperial court's order will be dealt with strictly!"

Zhao Feng thought for a while and said: "Ju Shou, I order you to hold the festival, and go to various places with Gongsun Zan. Anyone who fails to inform the people of the news will be sent to prison by the local county magistrate. If it is serious, he can be killed on the spot. The common people are outraged! In addition, arrange for Xianliang to take office as soon as possible!"

Ju Shou cheered up immediately: "I obey the order!"

Holding festivals means the arrival of the emperor, and the power is supreme. When it is serious, the ministers who are released can be killed on the spot.

It is precisely because of this supreme right that the choice of those who hold festivals is extremely harsh.

Ju Shou had already murdered those corrupt officials, and now that he had the status of holding a festival, he was even more powerful, and entered Luoyang again that day.

Luoyang Ling is a member of the Wang family of Bingzhou. He is a distant relative with Wang Yun in the past. He was born in a wealthy family and belongs to the upper class.

After Jushou arrived in Luoyang, he first arrested the Luoyang order and put him in the market, where many people gathered to watch, and then asked Gongsun Zan to close the city gate, so that Luoyang could only enter and exit.

Soon, he saw many people gathered around, so he said loudly: "I am an envoy of the imperial court, and I came here to handle the case on behalf of the emperor. Certainly!"

"It's just that elders, who knows who this person colluded with, please also point out that this time, this official will definitely deal with it strictly and never tolerate it, so as to sweep away the corrupt habits of the officialdom. If you want to tell this official, you can come secretly at night. Of course, This officer can also send you to settle in Xudu, so you don’t have to worry about being retaliated from now on!”

Ju Shou gave an order, and then there was no movement around.

However, he is not discouraged.

It is daytime now, even if you are not afraid of being retaliated, you will feel embarrassed.

Reporting such things is usually done secretly.

That night, Jushou lived in the post house, and the surroundings of the post house were extremely dark, except for soldiers standing on the corner of the street, each holding a stack of black cloth.

Soon, people appeared on the street one after another. These people were all stealthy, like thieves.

However, they all walked towards the post house and came straight to the guards.

"I want to see Lord Jushou!"

Those guards immediately said: "If you are worried about being discovered, you can cover this cloth."

So, all the people who came here covered themselves in the cloth, only showing two eyes, followed behind the guards, went in one after another, and interviewed and reported with Jushou one by one.

Ju Shou personally asked about this matter, writing while asking, and wrote down all the people mentioned one by one.

After dawn, Ju Shou's eyes were red, and he was still circling the names of those people.

His face was stern, and his eyes glowed coldly: "This group of nobles, all of them have tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land, thousands of tenants, countless cattle and sheep, and a lot of shops. They have more money than they can spend in a few lifetimes, and they still want to continue to exploit the people. Damn it!" !"

Immediately, Ju Shou shouted loudly: "Where is General Gongsun!"

Gongsun Zan came in quickly: "What are your orders, sir?"

Ju Shou hugged the roster and stood up with restraint: "Lead someone follow me from house to house to arrest these rats! I want to get rid of these greedy and useless people for Your Majesty, so that the people of Wei will no longer have to live so hard!"

Gongsun Zan immediately went down and gathered three thousand elite soldiers, all armed, and followed Ju Shou, searching from house to house.

Soon, the people on the roster who were circled by Jushou were picked out one by one and gathered in the street.

"My ancestor was Emperor Guangwu, and my father used to be the governor of Hanzhou! My family and friends are all over the world, Jushou, you'd better be smart and dare to touch me? Those people will make big moves immediately, and the emperor will calm down our anger. , will kill your whole family!"

"My eldest brother is a general of the imperial court, Jushou, you can't afford to mess with me!"

All of these people shouted loudly, although they were tied up, there was no fear or regret on their faces!
Seeing this scene, Luoyang Ling immediately disappeared all his original worries, and instead showed a sly smile: "Ju Shou, it's easy for you to catch us, but it's difficult to release us. If you kneel and kowtow now, there may be some powerful people I will not accept it, you, and your family, will definitely pay the price for today's recklessness!"

Ju Shou didn't speak, but his gaze was even colder.

At this time, the surrounding people piled up more and more, and all three floors inside and outside three floors showed angry expressions.

In the crowd, the low-pitched words gradually turned into electric and high-pitched angry reprimands!

"Shameless Greed!"

"Death is more than enough!"

"Unforgivable!"

"Uprooted!"

The voice gradually became louder, and someone even threw clods in the crowd, hitting these black apples.

"Bastard! Who dares to hit you, your grandfather! Stand up and let me remember your face!"

However, in the crowd, the common people standing in front have been firmly blocking the people behind!
Even, following the curses of those nobles, the force of the people behind them was much stronger. After a while, many nobles were beaten to the point of bleeding, but Gongsun Zan signaled the soldiers to turn around and use their armor to avoid the people. of clods.

"Ju Shou! Send us away!"

"We have such a precious body, yet we are so bullied by unreasonable people! Ju Shou, your crime is serious!"

However, Jushou just looked at them coldly as if he didn't hear these words at all.
