In the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan beat Li Shimin at the beginning

Chapter 111 Cui Zhengfa Comes Again

Li Ke still shook his head calmly, and said, "No, no, you are thinking too simply. This is not a problem that you can solve after you die. Let me ask you, are you the main culprit in this matter?"

Cui Binghong quickly shook his head and said: "No, Cui Zhengan asked us to do this. He also took the most money. He is the main culprit!"

Li Ke nodded, and sat there steadfastly, without saying a word.

At this moment, the eyes of civil and military officials all fell on him.

Li Ke stood up and walked around with his hands behind his back.

Yes, although he is a time traveler, he doesn't know how to deal with this matter.

It's easy to kill these people, but what about the food?

What he has to do now is not only to deter these officials, but also to get the food back.

Although the food was sold, did it disappear?No no no.The food is still in Datang, and it can even be said that it is still in Chang'an.

As long as there is a way, you can still get it back.

Suddenly, Li Ke stopped and said, "Li Junxian, you should immediately take people to the homes of these officials and ransack them.

All their family members, regardless of gender, age or age, were arrested by me and thrown into prison.Waiting to be cut. "

what?
Cui Binghong raised his head and looked at Li Ke in shock.

The two warehouse chiefs also raised their heads and looked at Li Ke with horror on their faces.

Cui Binghong hurriedly kowtowed to Li Ke and said, "Your Majesty, please let my family go! I did this all by myself, and it has nothing to do with them!"

Li Ke said blankly: "The food you embezzled back, do they have a share to eat, and the money you embezzled back, do they have a share to spend?

Cui Binghong, Cui Binghong, for such a small benefit, the lives of the whole family were put on the line, do you think you are stupid? "

Today, Chang'an City is destined to be restless.

Li Junxian set off with his soldiers and horses.

Cui Zhengan's family.

Cui Binghong's home.

Cui Ren, Cui Yu's family, the head of the warehouse department.

And the school lieutenant Cui Zhengwu's family who led people to rebel.

Etc., etc.

Not surprisingly, all the officials in charge here in Dongcang are from the Cui family.

Li Junxian set off with people, ransacked all these houses, and arrested them all.All were sent to Yushitai Prison.

In Yushitai prison, more than 200 people came in at once.Men and women, young and old, all of them.

Day 2 morning.

On the Hall of Tai Chi.

Wei Zheng came out to report...

Not surprisingly.Nancang, Xicang, Beicang, all had accidents.

Although the situation is not as serious as Dongcang, it is almost the same.

The last summary, the remaining food, ten out of three.

Li Ke looked at the list of prisoners in his hand and smiled.

Yes, from Cui Zhengan down, almost all the officials belong to the Cui family.Even if the surname is not Cui, he is still an official of the Cui family.

Some are the sons-in-law of the Cui family, and some are officials recommended by the Cui family.

Anyway, almost all the officials are inseparable from the Cui family.

In other words, the Cui family has the final say on the warehouse.

"Ha ha……"

Li Ke smiled wryly and shook his head.Datang is really controlled by these aristocratic families!

The warehouse is controlled by the Cui family, so what about other places?
Finally, Li Ke issued the same order.

All the officials involved ransacked their homes, and their family members were all arrested.

This time, the Yushitai Prison and the Prison Prison were all full of people.

The morning of the 4th day when it happened.

On the Legislative Hall.

Fang Xuanling made a conclusion.

The homes of these officials were raided, and the things found made up more than half of the losses.

Yes, these officials are still very rich.Just by copying their homes, they recovered more than half of their losses.

Hearing this, Li Ke finally felt relieved.

Directly ordered: "Wei Zheng, I will leave this matter to you. Tomorrow morning, at Caishikou, all the officials and their families involved in the case will be dragged to Caishikou for interrogation."

Wei Zheng quickly asked: "What about the children? Will the children be killed too?"

Li Ke said: "Kill, whether it's a child or a baby, kill them all."

Wei Zheng frowned slightly, and said, "Here."

Yes, in this day and age, when one person commits a crime, the whole family suffers.

Li Ke said: "Wei Zheng, don't tell the world about this matter yet. I guess in the future, someone will come to you to intercede. You can push it all on me and let him come to me."

Wei Zheng quickly said, "Yes."

Yes, Li Ke didn't really want to kill these people.

But it has been 4 days, and the Cui family has not responded at all, so he must make a big move.

It depends on whether Cui Zhengan can sit still?
Sure enough, at noon.Li Ke is drinking tea at the mansion.

The butler hurried in, cupped his hands and said to him, "His Royal Highness, Cui Zhengan, the person in charge of the Cui family, is asking to see you outside the door."

Li Ke finally smiled.Sure enough, I still couldn't sit still, here I come.

Li Ke said: "Please."

Soon, Cui Zhengan walked in.

Li Ke stood up, laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Cui, what kind of wind blows you to my house. Hahahaha... come here, please sit down. When you come to my house, you don't need to kneel. but sitting."

Li Ke pulled him and pushed him on the stool.

Cui Zhengfa sat on this stool last time.Sitting down now feels so comfortable.

Cui Zhengfa sighed: "Your Majesty will really enjoy it! This thing is so good, I have to ask someone to make a set for fun."

Li Ke said: "This thing is simple and not worth a lot of money. If Cui Gong likes it, I will give you a set later."

Cui Zhengfa was also not polite, and said: "Haha, then I will thank the Acting Majesty."

The two sides exchanged a few pleasantries, and finally sat down face to face.

Li Ke poured him a cup of tea, and said straight to the point: "Mr. Cui is a busy man! You must have something to come to my house today, right?"

Time is precious, it is useless to talk too much, talk about things when you have something to say.This is Li Ke's style.

Cui Zhengfa didn't go around in circles with him, nodded and said directly: "To be honest, I came to look for your acting majesty today, and I do have something to ask for."

Li Ke said: "Please tell me."

Cui Zheng hesitated to speak, thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, I am ashamed to say it! There are so many corrupt officials in my Cui family, and my face is shameless!"

Said it was ashamed, said it was a lackluster face, but Cui Zhengfa's face showed no trace of guilt.

That's all.Since the Han Dynasty, the means for these big families to earn money is to be an official.This is a matter of course and nothing to feel guilty about.

Li Ke nodded and asked, "And then?"

Cui Zhengfa said: "I came here today just to ask His Majesty the Acting Majesty, can His Majesty the Acting Majesty be lenient and leave a seed for my brother and my family?

I know, they all deserve to die, but the child is innocent!Can you spare one for them? "

Yes, people in this era pay great attention to the inheritance of future generations.

Li Ke looked embarrassed, and said: "Cui Gong, you are embarrassing me. The laws of the country are like this. Even if I act as an agent for His Majesty, I can't show favoritism! Please forgive me, Cui Gong!"
