Chapter 190
Now, the purpose of celebrating Ji has been achieved.

At least under his edict to verify the amount of the assets of the Chinese people, the officials who were corrupt and perverted the law "showed their true colors", which played a shocking role.

After this round of reshuffle, the Wu State has benefited a lot. Thousands of slaves, plus tens of thousands of acres of land, are all leeks harvested by Qingji!

As for the houses, fields, shops, and cattle that were illegally seized and seized by the Qing officials, they should be returned to the original owners as much as possible.

Li Shu at the bottom also benefited!
Qingji smiled slightly and said, "The old family must have complained about such a huge loss, right?"

How can there be no complaints?

I'm afraid that many people even want to kill Qingji!
Dazai Ji Zha smiled wryly and said: "Your Majesty, cutting off a person's fortune is just like killing one's parents. This hatred, this hatred, cannot be shared!"

"The old family has lost a lot of assets this time, and there are many complaints in their hearts, which is understandable."

If you come out, you will have to pay it back sooner or later!

Qingji knew that what he did would be resented and hostile by the old Wu family, but he had to do it.

To maximize the release of Wu's productivity and obtain more arable land and assets, it is understandable for Qingji to cut a wave of leeks.

What's more, what those high officials did was corrupt and broke the law. Qing Ji didn't punish them severely, but forced them to hand over their illegally obtained assets.
"Your Majesty, Doctor Censor please see me!"

While Qingji was discussing state affairs with Ji Ran and Ji Zha, the servant suddenly slipped into Zide Hall to report.

"Xuan."

"promise!"

Not long after, Sun Wu, the official censor, entered the Zide Hall step by step and bowed to Qingji.

"Your Majesty, urgent report from Yunyang County!"

"What's the matter?"

"Hu Yang, magistrate of Yunyang County, was assassinated suddenly and died in the mansion!"

Hearing this, Qingji's pupils couldn't help shrinking suddenly.

What a guts!
I really ate bear heart and leopard gall!
The county magistrate hand-picked by Qingji, the ruler of a county, died at home in such an unexplained manner?
"Who ordered the assassin?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the assassin is dead, and the real murderer behind the scenes is still unknown."

"check!"

Qingji said coldly: "I will investigate thoroughly!"

"promise!"

Ji Zha and Ji Ran, who were on the side, could already feel the anger suppressed in Qingji's heart.

Furious!
The man was furious, and blood spattered five steps!
When the king was angry, blood flowed to the oars!
Apparently, a county magistrate, a minister of the level of a feudal official, was assassinated, which made Qingji very annoyed.

It's just defiant and lawless!
Did you put Qingji, the king, in your eyes?

It is conceivable that Hu Yang, the county magistrate of Yunyang, was assassinated to death at this time, and he was absolutely inseparable from the old family.

They couldn't assassinate Qingji, so couldn't they kill a foreign county magistrate who had no roots in Wu?
……

After Sun Wu received Qingji's order, he immediately led [-] elite soldiers to Yunyang County on a starry night journey.

The magistrate of a county was assassinated to death, which is no small matter.

When Sun Wu, the censor doctor, led his troops to the north, and the investigation of the ins and outs of Hu Yang's death spread to Yunyang County, the doctor Yang Rong suddenly became flustered.

He never expected that Qingji would attach so much importance to Hu Yang that he would have to make the matter clear?
When Sun Wu arrived in Yunyang County, he stayed in the county government office, and before he had time to rest, he got a reliable message.

Seeing the county magistrate of Yunyang County enter the hall, he asked Sun Wu to stand back to prevent the partition wall from having ears. Then he took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve and handed it to Sun Wu to read.

"This is?"

"Doctor Yushi, this is the suicide note of County Magistrate Hu Yang. The magistrate Hu Yang wrote this suicide note the day before he was assassinated and died. He seems to have expected it."

The county magistrate sighed faintly, and said: "County magistrate Hu Yang said to my subordinate before he was alive that if something really happened to him, he would send this suicide note to the king, or come to investigate thoroughly."

"Looking at it now, County Magistrate Hu is really good at predicting things..."

Hearing this, Sun Wu couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

Such a shrewd person, why couldn't he escape unharmed?
Since he had expected that he might be assassinated, why didn't Hu Yang escape from Yunyang County first?
Sun Wu was very puzzled, and then he opened Hu Yang's suicide note and looked at it. He couldn't help feeling sorry for him, and said with a lot of emotion: "Hu Yang, he is really a minister of the country, and my country of Wu is sad to lose a minister of one arm!"

For Hu Yang's death, Sun Wu also felt very regretful.

Hu Yang indeed guessed that he might be assassinated!
He said in his suicide note that if he was assassinated to death, the real culprit behind the scenes must be the Chinese doctor Yang Rong.

If there is any unknown, you can verify it.

For this reason, Sun Wu decided to go there himself!
He will not wrong a good person, but he will never let a bad person go!
Which is right and which is wrong, there is justice!
And justice is at ease!
Hu Yang's death was actually creating a favorable condition for Qing Ji.

Yang Rong, who dared to send assassins to kill a county magistrate and do illegal things, would not end well.

However, Qingji can take this incident as a breakthrough point, and vigorously rectify all the old families in Wu State, so as to eliminate the officials and restore Wu State to a bright and bright world.

"General doctor Yang Rong, please go to the county government."

"promise!"

Sun Wu thought about it secretly, and decided to knock the mountain and shake the tiger first.

If it was Yang Rong who ordered the assassin to kill Hu Yang, Yang Rong must have lost his sense of control and did not dare to come, or if he came to the county government, he would definitely show his feet.

It's just that Sun Wu obviously made a mistake this time.

Yang Rong did not come to the county government to confront Sun Wu.

When Sun Wu rushed to the outside of Yangrong's mansion with a team of hundreds of people in the early morning of the next day, what he saw was the tightly closed gate.

"Where is the sheep?"

"Doctor Yushi, my Patriarch is still in fiefdom, and has never belonged to the mansion!"

The boy in charge of guarding the gate was shocked by Sun Wu's posture, and quickly and honestly explained Yang Rong's whereabouts.

Hearing this, Sun Wu led his [-] elite soldiers, took a military chariot, and rushed to the fief of Yang Rong, the doctor of Zhongzhong!

Yang Rong, as a senior official in Wu State, relied on the shadow of his ancestors and enjoyed the fiefdom of Yunyang County for [-] miles. The area is not small, and he also has a lot of private soldiers.

No, when Sun Wu led his troops to the fief of Yang Rong, Yang Rong was already in armor, holding a bronze long sword, leading hundreds of impromptu private soldiers, standing above the Wubao, following Sun Wu's The regular army confronted each other.

Seeing this scene, how could Sun Wu not realize that Yang Rong was behind Hu Yang's death?
However, what Sun Wu never expected was that Yang Rong jumped the wall in a hurry this time, and directly rebelled, openly confronting the government and the army!
