Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1401
Sun Sida had a good life in Bazhong City.

It can even be said to be particularly good.

Even when the flood in Bazhong City was severe, he still lived a luxurious life in his own mansion.

He is an official who retired from his old age and returned to his hometown. He used to work with Li Yuan, but later he made a small mistake, so he took the blame and fired himself.

Then came to Bazhong.

The land of Bashu is something that makes people linger and forget to return. Once you come, you don’t want to leave.

When Sun Sida was an official, he accumulated a lot of money. In addition, he was an official who retired from old age and returned to his hometown. Li Yuan also favored him, and he also had some former students in Chang'an City.

So after arriving in Bazhong City, he received due respect and some power.

He can be regarded as a high-ranking person in Bazhong City, and a person like him will inevitably do some illegal things, but in comparison, he is not worried about this. His status makes the entire Bazhong City people feel uncomfortable. Dare to offend him.

On this day, Sun Sida was having fun with a group of singers and dancers in his mansion.

He is over 60 years old, but his body is still very strong, and he is even more fond of women.

While he was having fun like this, several guards rushed in.

Seeing these guards, Sun Sida was not nervous, on the contrary, he was a little angry.

"Who are you, trespassing on my Sun Mansion, do you know the consequences?"

The guard smiled softly, a little disdainfully.

"His Royal Highness has an order for you to go to the governor's mansion, let's go."

Hearing the call from His Royal Highness, Sun Sida hesitated for a moment. His status in Bazhong City is not low, but compared with Li Chengqian, he is a piece of shit.

There was no other way, he could only quickly lower his posture, and followed the guards to the Governor's Mansion.

Originally, he thought that after going to the Governor's Mansion, he would go to the backyard to meet Li Chengqian alone, but what he didn't expect was that after arriving at the Governor's Mansion, he was directly taken to the lobby.

On both sides of the lobby, the yamen servants were mighty and strict, with a murderous look.

In the lobby, there were many people kneeling, and Sun Sida didn't know these people.

However, as soon as he walked over, Li Chengqian's eyes narrowed, and he shouted sharply: "Sun Sida, are you guilty?"

Sun Sida was stunned for a moment, then his heart sank, and he secretly thought it was bad.

However, after all, he is an old minister under Li Yuan. When he was an official in the court, there was no Li Chengqian.

So he quickly calmed down, and said: "The grass people don't know what His Highness the Crown Prince meant."

Li Chengqian snorted: "You used despicable means to plunder the land of ordinary people, and even threatened to kill people for it. What do you mean?"

Sun Sida has done all the things Li Chengqian said, and his heart is getting more and more uneasy. No one here dared to touch him before, but Li Chengqian is different. He is His Royal Highness, and he wants to touch himself. It's so easy.

Gritting his teeth, Sun Sida continued: "His Royal Highness, you are wronged. This is all wronged. The grassroots did not steal by chance. You have to have evidence for what you say."

Li Chengqian chuckled: "Do you want evidence? Well, the crown prince will give you the evidence. Tell me about how Sun Sida bullied you."

Li Chengqian glanced at the ordinary people kneeling in the lobby, and after he finished speaking, these ordinary people immediately started talking.

"His Royal Highness, Cao Min had [-] mu of fertile land in his hand, and it was next to Sun Sida's fertile land. However, this Sun Sida wanted to occupy my fertile land, so he sent people to destroy my crops, and also took my farmland. The little grandson was kidnapped, saying that if I didn’t sell the good land to him, he would destroy my crops all the time. My little grandson has been kidnapped. For the safety of my family, I can only sell the good land to him , It’s just that the price he gave is really too low, too low, it’s just trying to cut my way out.”

"His Royal Highness, Caomin also had more than ten mu of fertile land in his hands. My fertile land is far away from Sun Sida's fertile land, but there is a water source near my fertile land. He took a fancy to that water source and used some despicable methods. Let me sell the good land to him."

"His Royal Highness, he forced my daughter to death..."

These people usually dare not speak out against Sun Sida, but now that Prince Li Chengqian is standing behind them, they are more courageous, and they have told about Sun Sida's crimes.

Every time these people said a word, Sun Sida's heart sank a little. When all his crimes were revealed, even he himself felt a little shocked. Has he done so many bad things for so many years?

However, even he himself didn't know that he had done so many bad things.

After these people finished speaking, Sun Sida was in a bad mood.

"Sun Sida, what else do you have to say now?"

Sun Sida originally wanted to bite the bullet and refuse to admit it, but what these people said just now has evidence, and he can't do it if he wants to admit it.

With a final plop, he knelt down to Li Chengqian: "His Royal Highness, please forgive me, the grass people know that they are wrong, the grass people know that they are wrong..."

Sun Sida's begging for mercy was an instinctive reaction of his, and it was also an instinctive reaction of human beings.

Li Chengqian snorted, and then said: "Since you have done these things, you have to pay the price, and you have to be responsible for what you have done. Come here, take Sun Sida down, ask for execution after the autumn, and send someone to search the house."

After the words fell, Sun Sida suddenly slumped on the ground. He didn't expect the reversal of fate so quickly.

Before, he was happy in the mansion with the beauty in his arms, but in the blink of an eye, he was going to be imprisoned, and he was going to die soon.

With so many businesses of his own, wouldn't it be cheaper for Li Chengqian?

Sun Sida was considered a relatively smart person, and he quickly understood what Li Chengqian meant.

Now, although the flood problem has been resolved, many people’s homes have been destroyed and there is no food. These people’s housing and food are problems. Although Li Chengqian’s food and grass have been brought in, it is obviously not enough. Li Chengqian is trying to take them for a ride ah.

To put it bluntly, they are Li Chengqian's fattened sheep. If they are fattened, they should be slaughtered.

However, he did do those things, and there is nothing wrong with Li Chengqian punishing him in this way, even if he wants to refute.

"His Royal Highness, spare your life, Your Royal Highness, please forgive me..." Sun Sida kept shouting, and now he could only continue to beg for mercy.

However, those guards ignored him at all, and directly escorted Sun Sida to the prison in the Governor's Mansion. At the same time, another group of guards rushed to Sun's Mansion and began to search the house.

For them, this is another big harvest business.

Heinous people deserve to die, and they feel very happy.
