Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 133: Kill someone

In the dusk, [-] shi of grain from the aristocratic family arrived in Luoyang. This time, no one bought it directly for [-] shi, which was [-]% lower than the market price. This batch of grain was successfully circulated to the market.

Early in the morning, Lin Heng learned the news and immediately called Chu Suiliang and others to go to the governor's house together.

Li Zhen has also woken up. He is waiting for a reply from Changsun Wuji, unaware of some of the things happening in Chang'an now.

All he knew was that the person behind him had not shown up for several days. The plan should still go ahead, but the money here was no longer enough.

The high-priced grain of 120 million shi, no matter how rich the family is, can they still afford it?
Li Zhen was a little depressed. He always felt that the people in the aristocratic family were like lunatics. They had doubled the price of food. Now the market only sells it for the same amount, but the aristocratic family only sells it for [-] cents.

This seems to be a posture of fighting them to the end.

He was thinking about what the King of Han would say next, when he saw Lin Heng and his party.

For some reason, I feel that Lin Heng is a little different today, as if he suddenly has the aura of a superior person.

He thought he had made a mistake, and he didn't realize it until Lin Heng spoke.

"Zhao Duan, the transshipment envoy of Henan Road, was corrupt and perverted the law, and deliberately drove up the price of grain. I will behead him today in public. Please send someone to arrest him, Governor Li!"

Beheading?

Li Zhen was confused again for a while. This usually gentle and easy-to-bully consort seemed to have disappeared, replaced by a madman!
He quickly said: "Zhao Duan is the transshipment envoy of Henan Province and is responsible for a water transportation matter. If he were to kill him casually, I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate..."

Lin Heng frowned and said: "I have now mastered all the crimes of Zhao Duan, Zhou Fei, Li Fang and other officials. If these people are not killed, I am afraid it will only be harmful to the Tang Dynasty!"

"You have to remember that I am informing you, not asking for your opinion!"

Madman, madman, you want to kill so many people at once, you want to alarm the King of Han!
When the King of Han becomes angry, it will be your death, Lin Heng!
But now, Lin Heng's intention to kill these people has become clear, and from his understanding of Lin Heng during this period, he knows that this madman is really capable of it!
He also thought about trying harder to see if he could save these people. At this time, Lin Heng said angrily: "Why do you speak for these sinners? Is it possible that you are also their accomplice and are trying to protect them?"

Li Zhen said quickly: "I don't dare to lower my rank, it's just..."

Behind them are all bureaucratic families. Aren't you afraid of attracting thunderous revenge from the families behind them?
"Then send troops to arrest people. These corrupt officials have already gritted their teeth against them. If they are not killed, how can we provide disaster relief!"

When Li Zhen heard this, he had no choice but to send troops to go together.

Zhao Duan was sleeping soundly at home when his door was suddenly kicked open. The concierge who heard the commotion immediately stepped forward to stop him. Lin Heng pulled out his knife and said, "Let Zhao Duan come out and see me!"

When the concierge saw this, his face turned pale with fright, and he quickly turned around and went into the house.

A moment later, Zhao Duan, who was unconscious, walked out of the room and was stunned when he saw most of the officers and soldiers, led by Lin Heng and others.

"Everyone, this is..."

"Zhao Duan, a rebellious minister and traitor, deliberately drives up food prices to make profits. His heart is worthy of death. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, he should be executed!"

"Come on, take it away!"

At this time, Zhao Duancai came to his senses and realized that he was going to be beheaded. He quickly knelt down and begged for mercy: "I'm wronged, Prince Consort Lin, how dare I do such a thing..."

Lin Heng sneered and said: "You still dare to quibble now, look at what this is!"

He then took out some papers, all of which were merchants who collected grain under Zhao Duan. These people had already confessed and provided evidence that Zhao Duan provided money.

Seeing this, Zhao Duan's face suddenly turned pale, he was exposed!

"and many more!"

Zhao Duan suddenly spoke and looked at Lin Heng: "Lin Heng, don't forget, I am the transfer envoy of Henan Province, and you are the Minister of Disaster Relief. If you want to kill me, you have to report it to His Majesty!"

These are the rules. If you don't follow the rules, you are contemptuous of His Majesty.

But Lin Heng didn't take this trick at all: "At noon today, we will be beheaded outside Luoyang City!"

"You can't kill me. If you dare to kill me, our Zhao family will kill you. If you don't believe it, just try it!"

"Lin Heng! You madman, you can't kill me!"

"Prince Lin, I'll take out the food. Please spare my life, Prince Consort Lin..."

As he spoke, he was already taken away by the officers and soldiers. The concubine who came out behind him and was only wearing single clothes seemed to be still in a daze.Li Zhen's eyelids jumped immediately when he saw that Lin Heng was not moved at all, and did not even blink when he finally offered the food.

As Zhao Duan said, this person is a madman!
And Zhao Duan and himself are on the same line. He will do whatever it takes to survive. Then wouldn't he?
His face also turned pale, and suddenly, a hand fell on Li Zhen's shoulder.

Li Zhen was immediately frightened, fearing that he would also be chopped down: "Lin Consort, what are you?"

Lin Heng said with a smile: "There are still a few people who haven't been arrested, so I'll ask Governor Li to do it for them."

"It should be, it should be..."

There are a total of 13 people on Lin Heng's list, with high or low official positions in Luoyang. They have all been charged with crimes and have sufficient evidence.

Before the porridge was given at noon that day, these people were pulled outside the gate of Luoyang City. Facing them was the executioner holding a big knife in his hand, and everyone was already gearing up.

Overnight, their status has undergone a huge change. The day before they were high-ranking officials and well-paid, but today they will be beheaded in public.

They also cannot remain calm in the face of death.

The people in Luoyang City who were watching had already gathered outside. There were landlords and merchants who had sold grain, and even more ordinary people.

"Why do these people want to beheaded?"

"It is said that he is the main culprit of driving up food prices. Isn't there a crime listed there?"

"That should be killed. Because of this kind of borer, we have to spend so much money to buy food, and there are many people who can't afford food at all."

"These people are damned!"

Lin Heng looked at the time, it was already noon.

"Consort Lin, my Li family is willing to take out all the food and hand it over to the government for free. I just ask Consort Lin to spare the official's life!"

"I am willing to use all my wealth to provide relief to Prince Consort Lin..."

"Prince Lin, we didn't do this on purpose. Someone is manipulating it behind the scenes. I can tell you who it is..."

Lin Heng twitched his lips, didn't he still know who it was?

In such a vast Henan, who else would dare to make such a big move except the King of Han, who regarded the territory of Henan as his fiefdom?

If Li Ningxi hadn't mentioned that she had an uncle here, he wouldn't have thought of this King of Han.

It suddenly became clear and I wrote directly to tell Li Shimin.

But now, none of these damned people can live.

Have you made enough money and enjoyed yourself enough?Look at the people outside the city. They shouldn't have died.

But you did such a thing, and you deserved to die.

The family property must have been confiscated, but Lin Heng did not do anything like confiscation and execution. After all, some people were innocent.

The surgery starts with you!

"Such crimes have outraged both humans and gods. They have driven up food prices, causing countless victims to fall into dire straits. Just for profit, countless victims have starved to death on the streets."

"This crime should be punished!"

"cut!"

Countless big knives fell together, and the heads of 13 people suddenly fell to the ground.

Li Zhen, who had been watching the scene in front of him, his legs and feet were already weak at this moment, and he collapsed directly on the ground.

They all really died...
