Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 632: The power of life and death, grace and power all over the body

"How dare you!" Kedan You Jianda roared angrily!

"Presumptuous!" Ke Danjue turned around and yelled angrily, then smiled at Chen Zhipei and said, "My grandson is ignorant and bumped into the prefect. He should be severely punished. This punishment of beheading the toes is what we deserve. I am afraid that the reason why I can survive is because of the sake of General Tuoba Yulu. I would like to thank the prefect for not killing me!"

"Huh?" After saying this, even Chen Zhi was a little surprised, then nodded and said: "It's good that you can understand this, but it seems that your two grandsons still feel unhappy."

Ke Danjue quickly lowered his head and said, "I will make it clear to them when I get back."

In fact, Ke Danjue's words were correct. If it weren't for the sake of the Tuoba tribe behind them, the heads of the three ancestors and grandsons would never have been around their necks.

Now that this old man has recognized Chen Zhi's reputation for cruelty, it is not difficult to guess the fate of himself and others when thinking of some overlords on the grassland. How can he dare to resist?Didn't you see that Liu Jiang and Zheng Ru came forward one after another, and they were all trying to survive, but they were still taken down directly?
In comparison, the experiences of my grandfather and grandson were pretty good.

As for the situation after losing the toe and returning to the clan, we have to worry about it later.

After dealing with Ke Shanjue's ancestors and grandson, Chen Zhi ordered his soldiers to take Liu Jian and others down. Then he swept his eyes over the faces of the remaining people and said lightly: "Everyone, what happened this time. The leader of the thieves and the culprit will all be dealt with. Because of the critical moment of the war, they will be dealt with strictly and quickly. As for the followers, they will inevitably deviate because they are bewitched..."

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, especially Zhu Liu and others, who were already sweating profusely and their clothes were soaked, for fear of following in the footsteps of Liu Jiang and others. Now hearing Chen Zhi's tone, they seemed to be relieved. ?

But the expressions of several old men changed, and they vaguely guessed something.

"...However, even if I can understand your motives for this matter, and know that you feel that the enemy army is powerful, after all, this matter threatens my life, and it is related to the safety of the people in and outside the city. It cannot be solved by just understanding. "

Chen Zhi's next words immediately made everyone who had just breathed a sigh of relief feel their hearts in their throats again.

"In the final analysis, the population and manpower you control are really beyond the situation." After several twists and turns, Chen Zhi finally brought the topic to the point, "So after this battle, I hope that each family can compare the amount of land under its name and the final decision. How many branches and affiliates we have been affiliated with have been clearly explained in detail, and their origins and affiliations have been made clear to prevent traitors from getting into it. At critical moments, we have to cooperate with the enemy inside and outside, and you will be the ones who will be affected!"

The entire court, as well as everyone watching outside the court, heard this and understood what it meant, and they all lost their voices for a moment.

"What a big appetite!"

Suddenly, Lu Jian, who was watching in the crowd, finally couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.

On the side, Luo Yang was a little confused. He looked at the sighing people around him and couldn't help but ask: "Is there any problem with this? I heard what Governor Chen said, it's just a population survey. Isn't this done every year? What?"

Zhang Jingsheng was also sighing with emotion. Hearing this, he explained in a low voice: "Every year, the government checks the plan, which is only a general situation to understand the political performance. But what Chen Taishou said at this time is certainly not meant to To understand the general situation, but to thoroughly grasp the land situation under these aristocratic families, as well as the details of the tenant households attached to it, it is equivalent to uncovering the background of these wealthy families, and then sending people to tax and requisition people. It is difficult to say about the land with title deeds. , but those tenant eight CDs will be under their control!"

After saying this, Luo Yang also understood, and immediately his expression changed, and he suddenly remembered something: "Yes, I heard that there is a barbaric country in the south that wants to surrender to my big man. The first step is to offer a token of homage and surrender his family." Everyone’s population and household registration are registered so that the Celestial Empire can know about it, so that the imperial court can control the fate. Listening to what you said, today’s events are similar but similar in approach and approach!”

Wang Kuai also shook his head and sighed: "Aristocratic families are powerful. Between people and land, the more land they occupy, the more money they have. And this land must be cultivated by people. A major authority of an aristocratic family is to command the concubines and concubines under the family name." With many subordinates, the clan's orders are often more effective than the government's orders. Therefore, even a herdsman official like the prefect has to cooperate and compromise with the aristocratic family in order to secure his position. But Chen The prefect is different. Not long after he arrived, he overthrew a big clan. Now we need to take advantage of the situation to find out the population of these big clans. This is to prepare for the next step of infiltration."

Luo Yang whispered: "This prefect really knows how to choose the time, but there is no better time than now. The powerful enemy has just been repelled, and its power is second to none in Dai County. In addition, many so-called internal thieves have been dealt with. It is even an excuse not to pursue the other servants, I am afraid that if these aristocratic families show any unwillingness to cooperate, the matter of Zhu Liu and others will be investigated!"

Zhang Jingsheng looked at the tangled and complicated expressions on the faces of many people from aristocratic families in the hall, and saw that some people were thankful that they did not have to be implicated because of Liu Jian, while others were full of worry, obviously seeing that Chen Zhi The intention is to know that once the household registration of this population is taken out, there will be endless troubles.

"As soon as the order is given, some people are happy and want to take action immediately to save their lives. Some are worried. Although they are reluctant, they dare not refuse. This is true grace and power coming from the body, holding the power of life and death. , I studied history in the past, and only those overlords and tycoons who control one area and separate the territory can have such ability, which often represents the absolute control of a place!"

Feeling emotional in his heart, Zhang Jingsheng felt even more emotional when he recalled all the things he had experienced in Dai County from the beginning to the present. "This prefect Chen, who has been here for less than a year, is he going to completely control the place? No, this is not simply control. Even if the other prefects are skilled, they will spend some time when they arrive in the place, playing games with the local family. The two sides finally reached a balance. The prefect's order can be implemented in a county, which is the meaning of control, but Chen prefect now wants to say the same thing in the entire Dai county. Even the family can't stop an order from being issued, so they can only follow the order. How powerful!”

While he was thinking about it, Lu Jian next to him suddenly shook his head and said, "I don't understand, I really don't understand."

Zhang Jingsheng asked, "Brother Lu, what don't you understand?"

Lu Jian glanced at him and said, "I don't understand how this governor won the victory. Judging from the situation of the soldiers in the city along the way, there seemed to be few casualties. And in such a short period of time, the enemy might have lost a lot of power." Even the commander-in-chief was captured! Moreover, what was Taishou Chen’s purpose? Just look at his current treatment. Although it is fair, it is vaguely aimed at the leader of Youzhou. Lord, are you really planning to compete with him? Where does he have the confidence? After all, Daijun is just a county under Youzhou, and its population is not large. It cannot be compared with Yanjun and Fanyangjun. No matter how you look at it, his chances of winning are not good. .”

"This is not something I can understand," Zhang Jingsheng said, looking into the court again, "But having said that, in this situation, the prefect cannot make the choice."

Wang Kuai saw that someone around him noticed him and others, and wanted to come over to listen, so he quickly interrupted: "Don't talk about these things for now. Now that the war has retreated, our affairs will be settled soon. That Tongdian …”

Before he finished speaking, soldiers suddenly rushed over, pushed through the crowd, and came directly to the lobby.

When everyone saw this man's appearance, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Although this man was dressed as a soldier, he was covered in mud and looked like he had traveled a long distance. However, even Duan Wenyang was caught at this time. What military information did he have to rush here?

The soldier came to the hall and saw the hall full of people, but did not speak. He hesitated for a moment and wanted to go to Chen Zhi, but was stopped by Ran Zhan. Ran Zhan looked back at Chen Zhi and saw that the latter was lightly He nodded lightly and then backed away.

The soldier came to Chen Zhi and whispered something. Surprise flashed in Chen Zhi's eyes, and he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand this. Thank you for your hard work. Go down and have a rest first."

The soldier felt that what he came to deliver was earth-shattering news for Daijun. He thought that even the prefect would be frightened when he said this, but he did not expect that the other party would be like this. The wind was light and the clouds were calm, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Finally, he couldn't help but want to remind him.

Chen Zhi saw what he meant and smiled: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, don't worry, this is not a bad thing, but a good thing. News will come soon."

His words had a strange rhythm. After listening to the soldier, his chaotic thoughts were sorted out, and then he subconsciously bowed to accept the order and retreated.

However, it was obviously unreasonable for this person to come suddenly, and ran to Chen Zhi's side to whisper a message.

Not to mention where is this place?
After a great victory, the solemn and solemn court interrogated and judged the defeated and traitors. On such an occasion, let alone a soldier, even the officials of the imperial court did not dare to rush in without special confidence. Come, it turned out that this soldier not only came, but also received a few words of comfort from Chen Zhi.

Thinking about this person's behavior before and after, it shows that something is wrong.

Not to mention Mr. Su and the leaders of the aristocratic families in the court, even Zhang Jingsheng and others outside the door realized that this sudden news might not be that simple.

Looking at the appearance of these people, Chen Zhi laughed. He waved his sleeves and said, "Okay, now that the siege has been lifted, all the thieves have returned home. You have been exhausted for a long time and are mentally and physically exhausted, so you should go back and recuperate."

This is the end of the meeting.

But just when everyone was hesitating and someone was about to leave, Chen Zhi suddenly added: "However, no matter what happens, the execution will go as scheduled tomorrow. I hope to see you all in good condition by then." Arrive at the scene, otherwise..."
