Start with Baihuguan

Xu Lin and others who were pressed on the execution ground could clearly see the token raised in Li Huan's hand, and the moment the token landed was the moment when their heads fell to the ground.

All of a sudden Xu Lin and the others couldn't help cursing loudly, even Xu Wei who had desperately wailed and begged for mercy before was now struggling crazily with red eyes and cursing Li Huan in his mouth.

Even if it is death, Li Huan must be cursed before he dies.

It's a pity that Li Huan didn't take these people's curses to heart at all.

"cut!"

As the token in Li Huan's hand flew out, the sharp ghost-head knives gleaming with cold light in the hands of a group of soldiers who were originally standing behind these criminals as executioners raised high.

With a bang, the token fell to the ground, and at the same time, the raised ghost knife drew an arc in the air.

Accompanied by streaks of blood rushing out, heads rolled directly to the ground one by one.

Xu Lin and the others who had been cursing before turned into headless corpses and fell to the ground one by one.

Although it is not uncommon to see beheading scenes on weekdays, it is the first time that so many people have been beheaded like this, even if many people claim to be well-informed.

The bloody and cruel scene directly stunned many people.

Of course, some people couldn't help crying aloud. Needless to say, these people must have hatred for officials or powerful people like Xu Lin.

Li Huan sat there with a calm expression. Although there was a faint smell of blood rushing towards his face, compared to the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood on the battlefield, the deaths of people like Xu Lin did not move Li Huan.

"Continue to bring criminals!"

Then came the relatives of these criminals, because what Xu Lin and other officials committed can be said to be a serious crime of treason. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, although it is not possible to exterminate the nine clans, it is not a problem to exterminate the three clans.

Teams of relatives of the prisoners who were tied up with ropes were brought up. When these people were brought into the execution ground and saw the hundreds of headless corpses that fell on the ground, the bloody and cruel scene directly Many people were so frightened that they passed out on the spot.

It seems that these people are used to being pampered and pampered on weekdays. How have they ever seen such a scene.

Especially next time they will be stabbed here, these people collapsed almost on the spot, at least one-third were frightened to death, and most of the rest were incontinent, all of a sudden There was a foul smell.

The guards who were in charge of escorting these people pushed and shoved these people, pressing them one by one on the execution ground.

After being inspected by the officials who were in charge of verifying the body, there was another burst of blood and rain.

Waves of criminals were escorted up, and soon hundreds of thousands of corpses fell on the execution ground, and blood flowed down the high platform like a stream, carrying a strong smell of blood.

At this time, it can be said that [-]% of the people who came here with the mentality of watching the excitement all turned pale, looking at the piled up corpses on the execution ground in horror.

One corpse or two corpses may not have that much impact, but when hundreds or thousands of corpses are piled up together, the impact is definitely not something ordinary people can bear.

For these ordinary people, there is nothing more impactful than the scene in front of them. It can be said that they will never forget this scene in their lifetime.

Many people couldn't help vomiting, and some people even fainted from fright. Fortunately, there were people from the local guards to maintain order in advance, otherwise they didn't know what chaos would happen.

After the people in the inner circle came back to their senses, they turned around as if they had seen a ghost and squeezed out towards the outer circle, as if there was some terrible existence behind them.

At this moment, in their hearts, Li Huan, who sat there firmly and ordered the beheading of so many criminals, seemed to be a murderous demon.

It's not that these people really regard Li Huan as a devil, but that these people are terrified by the scene in front of them.

Not to mention Li Huan, no matter who it is, sitting in Li Huan's seat,

They will be regarded as murderous demons by these people.

After all, no matter who it is, killing so many people at one time will be regarded as a murderous maniac.

It can be said that once word of Li Huan's actions today spreads, there will be no need for those who secretly hostile to Li Huan to fuel the flames, and Li Huan's reputation will spread all over the world.

A team of guards tremblingly loaded the corpses on the carriage and transported them away, and then another criminal was taken to the execution ground.

A killing continued from morning to evening, and the entire execution ground was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the blood alone had converged into a bloody river.

At the same time, the tens of thousands of people who had gathered to watch the beheading had already run away in fright, leaving only a handful of people.

These people are all people who have deep hatred with these criminals, relying on the hatred in their hearts to persist until the end, and want to see the scene of their enemies being killed with their own eyes.

When the last criminal was beheaded, a round of red sun in the sky also set down the mountain, and the sky gradually became dark.

bang, bang

Accompanied by the sound of clashing gold and iron, the soldiers who were in charge of the execution finally couldn't hold on anymore, and the ghost knife that had been changed several times in their hands finally fell to the ground uncontrollably.

Even these elite soldiers who survived nine deaths and one survived on the battlefield are now pale from being stimulated by today's killing.

Not only these people, it can be said that among the people who witnessed all this, there are really few people who can keep calm.

Xu Ying, Chen Ang, Ma Ming and others also looked at the blood-stained ground above the execution ground with serious expressions, even they were shocked by it.

A breeze blew past, carrying an incomparably rich bloody aura.

With a wow, it seemed that Pang Hui couldn't bear the bloody smell, and he immediately vomited.

Many of the surrounding soldiers who were in charge of maintaining order also lay there like Pang Hui and vomited.

Li Huan got up slowly, glanced at Pang Hui and others, and then gave instructions to the officials in the government office around him, and then left the execution ground.

Following behind Li Huan, Xu Ying, Chen Ang, Chen Ke and others seemed to have not recovered from the previous killing.

It wasn't until they returned to the bamboo garden that they gradually came back to their senses when they held the warm tea cups in their hands and a warm current entered their stomachs.

Xu Ying looked at Li Huan with a complicated expression, even though he knew that all the criminals deserved to die before, and no one could escape the knife on the execution ground.

But knowing is knowing, but Xu Ying was still shocked when she saw that scene with her own eyes.

At this time, Xu Ying respected and feared Li Huan at the same time. What he admired was that Li Huan had such courage and courage to order the beheading of nearly ten thousand criminals at once.

Xu Ying was also afraid of Li Huan's cruel methods.

After a while Xu Ying sighed softly and said to Li Huan: "Master Hou has put in so much hard work, I believe His Majesty will know about it."

Anyone who wasn't a fool would know that Li Huan had borne the infamy for the emperor.

Don't you see that those few major cases during the period of the Taizu Emperor, the direct consequence was to leave a stain on the achievements of the Taizu Emperor Huanghuang, which was criticized by future generations.

In this era, the right to speak has always been in the mouths of those literati, and for these literati, no matter what great achievements an emperor has, but once the killing is excessive, then in the eyes of these people, he is a tyrant.

Hearing this, Li Huan couldn't help chuckling and said: "Those who are ministers should share the worries of the king. Besides, I am an imperial envoy, so it is only natural to kill these people."

While speaking, Li Huan glanced at the few people, and seeing the serious expressions of each of them, he couldn't help laughing: "Everyone is so serious, it seems that the matter is very serious, isn't it just a group of damned people, kill them!" I just killed him, could it be that His Majesty would blame me for not being able to wait?"

Chen Ang looked at Li Huan, and said with a worried look on his face: "Your Majesty will naturally not blame Lord Hou, but above the court, all civil and military officials, and all the lords, are talking about it, I'm afraid they will go crazy at that time. Impeach

Lord Hou. "

Li Huan raised his brows and snorted coldly: "Then let them impeach. How many times have I been impeached?"

With a light cough, Li Huan's eyes fell on Chen Ke and said: "Don't worry, everyone, those criminals have all been executed now, let's talk about how much we have gained from this raid."

The confiscated property has been guarded and counted by Jin Yiwei and cavalry soldiers, because there are too many properties, and no specific figure has been released for so long.

But now that even those people have been punished, the property that Li Huan consciously confiscated should be almost counted.

After hearing Li Huan's question, the rest of the people were all refreshed, and all looked at Chen Ke who was named by Li Huan.

Chen Ke took a deep breath, took a step forward and bowed to Li Huan and said, "My lord, after half a month's statistics by our Jinyiwei, we have finally roughly counted all the confiscated properties not long ago. result."

Thinking of the busy time during this period, Chen Ke couldn't help but sigh with emotion. He didn't expect that one day he would be so busy counting the confiscated property.

It can even be said that if he hadn't dispatched another group of people from Jinyiwei, I am afraid that the results may not be able to be calculated by now.

Xu Ying looked at Chen Ke with some expectation: "Tell me, how much gold and silver was confiscated this time?"

Chen Ke looked at the crowd, and said slowly, "So that Master Hou would know, this time we confiscated Xu Lin and other officials, as well as the powerful families of Yangzhou Prefecture, involving hundreds of families, of which more than 150 million in gold alone Taels, more than [-] million taels of silver, and countless other jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc."

Speaking of which, Chen Ke didn't care about the sluggish looks on everyone's faces, and said: "In addition, there are more than two million mu of fields, hundreds of manors, thousands of restaurants, shops, etc..."

"Gulu..."

Xu Ying opened her eyes wide, swallowed subconsciously, her face was full of shock and disbelief.

Not only Xu Ying, but also Chen Ang, Ma Ming, Lin Pingzhi and others were all stunned there. Obviously, so much data that Chen Ke said gave them a great shock.

That is to say, Li Huan looked very calm, as if he was not surprised at all.

"This...how is this possible, how can there be so many gold and silver treasures..."

Xu Ying and Chen Ang's family backgrounds are not too bad, and the Xungui's family is not too bad, but in their eyes, a few hundred thousand taels of gold and silver is already an extremely huge number.

They had thought in advance that it was already the limit to confiscate more than a million taels of gold and silver in this raid, but now what Chen Ke said was simply beyond their imagination, and it was several times as much as they had expected.

Lin Pingzhi grew up in rich clothes and fine food, and he could be regarded as a son of a rich family, but now he couldn't help but said to Chen Ke: "My lord, don't you make a mistake in the statistics, how could these people have so much property?" ?”

It was Li Huan who said at this moment: "There is nothing surprising about this, and you don't want to think about the identities of these people. There is no richer man in the world than salt merchants, and most of the salt merchants in the world are in Lianghuai salt merchants. This Yangzhou Mansion is the gathering place of salt merchants from Lianghuai and Huaihe Rivers. Almost half of the powerful places we have confiscated this time are the homes of salt merchants. million riches, they are not worthy to be called salt merchants.”

Hearing what Li Huan said, Chen Ang, Xu Ying and the others were taken aback for a moment, and then they came to their senses.

Yes, they were surprised by the numbers reported by Chen Ke for a moment, but they subconsciously forgot that what they confiscated this time was Yangzhou City, a prosperous city in the south of the Yangtze River.

Yangzhou Mansion was originally one of the most prosperous and prosperous cities in the south of the Yangtze River. Almost half of the wealth of the huge Yangzhou Mansion was gathered in Yangzhou City, and most of the wealth of Yangzhou City was in the hands of the local powerful families who had been confiscated by them.

In addition, these people are wealthy salt merchants in the world. If you think about it this way, it is a matter of course that tens of millions of taels of gold and silver have not been copied from these people.

However, although it is accepted psychologically

So much wealth, but the mood is still a long time can not calm down.

Ma Ming even grinned and said, "I've heard that Yangzhou salt merchants are the most wealthy in the world, but I never thought that these people are so rich. Damn, tens of millions of taels of gold and silver, just think about it. It’s unbelievable. If this gets out, I don’t know how many people will be envious of it, and I’m afraid they will try their best to snatch it..."

Ma Ming's muttering caused Xu Ying, Chen Ang and the others to change their complexions slightly, and Chen Ang looked at Chen Ke with a serious expression, "Master Chen, the exact number of the property we confiscated this time has not been disclosed to some extent."

I didn't know how much property was confiscated before, so I didn't worry too much, but now that I know, it's no wonder Xu Ying, Chen Ang and others reacted like this.

Chen Ke said solemnly: "No one knows the exact number except me."
