Subsequent arrangements

Subsequent arrangements

However, Luo Xin, who was not trusted by Emperor Jiajing, did not dare to do this. He has been walking on the wire rope, walking on thin ice, cautiously.Since Song Danian cannot be killed, Hou Jian cannot be allowed to speak out.So he resolutely told Hou Jian to shut up.

It stands to reason that now that the imperial decree has been read, Hou Jian should be able to stand up, but he dare not stand up.He knew that if Luo Xin ordered Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing to kill him at this time, his death would be in vain.Song Danian will not admit that he sent someone to find him, he is dead, no one will testify to him.As for his subordinates...

Forget it, I didn't see them all kneeling there, are they about to pee?

Luo Xin didn't go to see Hou Jian again, let him kneel there like that, and didn't talk to Zheng Tong, but looked at Qi Jiguang and said:
"With people!"

Song Danian in the second hall was trembling, he wondered if Luo Xin had someone come in to bring him?At this moment, he had an impulse to escape through the back door, but he didn't know if Luo Xin had sent someone to catch him at the back door.If someone is waiting to catch him at the back door, not only will he die, but he will also lose his lord.

The scholar Zheng Tong and the general Hou Jian outside the Zhifu Yamen also trembled, wondering if Luo Xin wanted to bring them to the two corpses and chop off their heads.

But then they heard footsteps and voices calling for help, and some of these voices even called people from the six great families to save them.The people from the six great families followed the voice and saw hundreds of people were tied up and escorted by soldiers, and those hundreds of people were all members of the six great families, or they were the families of the six great families Slaves, those who smuggle, are the ones they are eager to find.

The faces of the six great families changed. They all knew that their goods had been robbed by Luo Xin.At that time, the people of the six great families were angry, and the masters of the six great families wanted to step forward and question Luo Xin, why did they rob them of their goods, and what was the purpose of arresting their people?

However, seeing Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing's men staring at them, they stopped in their tracks again, and their expressions became even uglier.Only then did they realize that they were smuggling, and they were caught by Luo Xin.Although smuggling in the southeast is already a lice on a bald head, everyone knows it is obvious, but this matter cannot be put on the surface. If it is true, it is really a capital crime.

capital offense……

Their hearts skipped a beat, did Luo Xin dare to kill hundreds of people?Dare to kill hundreds of people from their six great families?
Uneasy and ashamed, they watched as hundreds of their slaves were brought to the gate of the magistrate and knelt down on the ground one by one.Luo Xin said loudly:
"Yesterday, my subordinates cracked down on smuggling gangs in Wusongkou and Qiantang River. Among these people were smugglers and pirates, but whether they were smugglers or pirates, they were all guilty of capital crimes."

Speaking of this, Luo Xin took a deep breath, and suddenly raised his voice and shouted: "Cut!"

"Clang clang..."

Luo Xin's word "cut" fell, and a series of sounds of drawing the knife resounded in the space, and then the sound of the knife cutting into the neck.

"Puff puff……"

Hundreds of heads fell to the ground, streams of blood spurted out from the neck cavity, and the ground in front of the magistrate's gate was blood red.

In the second hall of the magistrate, Song Danian slumped on the chair, with extreme fear in his eyes, and whispered in his mouth:
"Killed! Killed! Crazy Luo killed hundreds of people..."

Outside the magistrate's gate, Hou Jian and Zheng Tong were lying on the ground, trembling all over.The people around were silent, the patriarchs of the six great families were dumbfounded, the smell of blood wafting in the air stimulated their noses, and their eyes showed fear.

Luo Xin looked at Zheng Tong who was lying on the steps of the magistrate's yamen. Although Zheng Tong was lying on the ground at this time, he felt Luo Xin's gaze looking over him, and his body trembled even more. I'm about to pee.Luo Xin's voice was heard next to his ear.

"Zheng Tong, let me ask you, if the magistrate is not here, can you make the decision to transfer the materials for the construction of the pier?"

Zheng Tong was stunned for a moment, then his body stopped shaking.His heart was shocked by the joy of the rest of his life, and he raised his head suddenly, fearing that Luo Xin would change his mind, he immediately shouted loudly:
"Yes! Yes! My lord needs materials and supplies, and people and people! I will do it immediately for the humble job."

"Go!" Luo Xin raised his hand and patted the stack of papers in Wang Ziren's arms and said, "If you don't do well, I will come again."

Zheng Tong was trembling again. He knew what the stack of papers in Wang Ziren's arms was. Just now, Wang Ziren read that stack of papers to his two colleagues, and then they were killed by Luo Xin.What was recorded on that stack of papers were all the criminal evidence of these corrupt officials.Moreover, they are used to being arrogant in the southeast, and they have never dealt with the beginning and the end seriously. Their evidence is too much, even if they want to erase the evidence in the future, it will be impossible. He believes that Luo Xin must have the personal and physical evidence. The witnesses were hidden and protected, and the physical evidence was hidden even more.Feel free to take it out and kill them.

It can be said that the lives of these corrupt officials are in the hands of Luo Xin.It would be fine if Luo Xin didn't have soldiers in his hands, they could kill Luo Xin.But Luo Xin had soldiers in his hands, which completely eliminated his chances of luck.At this moment, he regards himself as Luo Xin's dog, as long as Luo Xin doesn't kill him, he doesn't care about the magistrate or Song Danian, he just wants to be Luo Xin's dog.

He immediately jumped up from the ground, and started arranging for the construction of the pier as if he had injected chicken blood.And Song Danian was still slumped on the chair at this time, but at this moment his eyes regained their vitality.He knew that Luo Xin would not break in and kill him, and when he felt safe, his mind turned quickly.Soon he understood Luo Xin's thoughts, and Luo Xin didn't want to make things worse, if he, the magistrate, was killed, then things would get worse.Therefore, it is assumed that he is not really in the Yamen.

Thinking of it this way, his courage grew again.But then thinking of Luo Xin's ruthlessness, he became afraid again.He was a little scared, did Luo Xin let him go on purpose, if he provoked Luo Xin again, would Luo Xin really kill him?

"Hey, he's just a lunatic. Let's take a look first. As for the construction of the pier, I don't care about it. I'll leave it to Zheng Tong."

Outside the prefect gate.

Only then did Luo Xin look at Hou Jian who was lying on the ground, and said lightly:
"What are you still doing here? Help me maintain order, kill the smuggling criminals and robbers, you can retire now."

Hou Jian was overjoyed when he heard the words, knowing that Luo Xin had let him go.Immediately got up from the ground and said:
"Thank you, my lord, I will bid you farewell!
"Go!" Luo Xin waved his hand.

Hou Jianli jumped on the horse immediately, and left in a panic with his men. When he passed by Qi Jiguang, he smiled at Qi Jiguang, cupped his hands and said:
"General Qi!"

Qi Jiguang smiled faintly, lowered his voice and said, "If Luo Hounian hadn't been in the lineage of generals, do you think you would go back alive today?"

Hou Jian walked forward without stopping, but the dark color on his face had changed.Only at this time did he think of Luo Xin's other identity. He was not only the number one scholar in the dynasty, Tongzhi of Hangzhou, but also Marquis of Wu.He thought about the position of generals in Ming Dynasty, and then thought about if Luo Xin was replaced by those real civil servants, would he be killed in today's situation?

"Ugh……"

Hou Jian sighed. He knew in his heart that if the person holding the imperial decree and military power today was a pure civil servant, there was an [-]% chance that he would be killed. He would humiliate him to his heart's content, but Luo Xin didn't kill him, nor did he humiliate him, he simply made an excuse for him, and then let him go.

Is he related to Luo Xin?

No!

Does he have a relationship with Luo Xin?

No!

Luo Xin didn't even know him.

Under such circumstances, why should Luo Xin let him go?

Then there is only one reason, and that is that everyone is of the same vein as generals!
Hou Jian couldn't help turning his head back immediately, looking in Luo Xin's direction, feeling ashamed in his heart...

At this time, the prefect Song Danian and Luo Xinxin have a tacit understanding, Song Danian hides in the prefect's yamen and pretends that he is not there, while Luo Xin stands outside the prefect's gate and does not go in, and pretends that he does not know that Song Danian is in the prefect's yamen.

Zheng Tong was busy dispatching people to Haining to build the wharf, while Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing had already left with the army.At this time, only the members of the six great families and the onlookers were left on the street in front of the magistrate's gate.

At this time, the people from the six great families were already stupid, they did not think that Luo Xin would really dare to kill people, dare to kill people from their six great families, dare to kill so many people.

but……

How can they face Luo Xin at this time?
Step up to the theory?

How theory?

Said that those house slaves were from their six great families?Isn't this an admission that he is the mastermind behind the smuggling?
With Luo Xin's madness, if they dared to admit it in public, Luo Xin would dare to kill them blatantly.

However, if you don't admit that those house slaves are theirs, and they have nothing to do with those house slaves, then why do you go up and argue with Luo Xin?
This made the six great families feel very suffocated, and they couldn't make theories, and it hurts to lose the goods.They couldn't help looking at Lu Ding. Lu Ding suddenly felt a sharp gaze coming over him. He couldn't help but looked up, and met Luo Xin's cold gaze from the air. His heart couldn't help shaking, and he shouted. One sound:
"go!"

After the words fell, he turned his horse's head and walked towards his mansion.

In the crowd of onlookers, stood two very ordinary people. The two slowly withdrew from the crowd and came to the same roof. One of them lowered his voice and said:
"Luo Xin actually killed the smugglers."

Another person said: "But where is the cargo he confiscated? And where is the sea ship that he confiscated?"

"You mean...Luo Xin is greedy for ink?"

"I didn't say that, but we must investigate this matter clearly. If we can't investigate clearly, I think the governor will definitely send someone to investigate."

Luo Xin also left, but there were hundreds of corpses lying on the ground in front of the prefect's gate, and the bloody smell wafted in front of the prefect's yamen gate.

When Luo Xin returned to the Shibo Department, he saw that Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing were already sitting in the second hall, so Luo Xin invited them into the study, Lu Daqing served tea and retreated, Luo Xin then asked:

"General Qi, brother, how are those people doing the interrogation?"

Qi Jiguang showed a confident smile on his face and said: "As long as those cartilages fall into my hands, let alone make them confess to their master, let them recall how old they were when they were weaned."

Luo Qing also nodded with a smile on the side.

What Luo Xin and the others were talking about were the concubine disciples and stewards of the six great families who smuggled in Wusongkou and Haining. These people, Luo Xin did not take them to the magistrate's yamen to kill them, but left behind them.At this time, when I heard that those people had confessed, a smile appeared on my face and said:

"These people are being held in secret and no one should know."

Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing nodded together and said, "Don't worry, our soldiers won't say anything."

"Yeah!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "There is one thing that needs to be said by your soldiers!"

"what's up?"

Luo Xin said with a smile: "It's the process of your battle, especially the matter that the pirates escaped with most of the goods and gold and silver on all the ships. Your soldiers need to tell it. Don't worry, your soldiers don't need to take the initiative to go Said, someone will definitely ask them, and then they will just push the boat along, and maybe they can make a small fortune because of it.”

Qi Jiguang and Luo Xin nodded. They both understood what Luo Xin meant. The prefect, the six great families, and Jin Yiwei would definitely investigate this matter to see if Luo Xin was corrupt.If Luo Xin was greedy for ink, they would have caught Luo Xin.

"No, I have seized a total of 260 million taels of silver and silk porcelain worth 100 million taels." Qi Jiguang said in a low voice.

"The number on my side is similar." Luo Qing also said.

Luo Xin couldn't help sighing in his heart, this is a really rich family. It is unknown how much gold, silver and goods Wan Daquan and the others got, but it must not be less.Luo Xin pondered for a while and said:

"The two of you each leave 30 taels of silver to build your army. Leave me 40 taels, and send the rest together with the goods to Shibo Division."

Both Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing nodded. With the 30 taels each, they can equip their subordinates with better equipment, and they can also change food for the army. Once the food is provided, their training speed can also be improved. strengthened.As for Luo Xin each taking 40 taels from their seizures, the total is 80 taels. They don't care what Luo Xin wants to do.

"Little brother, you said that the six great families..." Luo Qing asked worriedly.

"It's okay!" Luo Xin said with a smile: "The total amount of silver seized by the two of you is 510 million taels. We deducted 100 million taels, so there are 410 million taels left. I will leave 62 taels for construction. And the cost of operating the Shibo Department, and then give Hu Zongxian 50 taels, so that Hu Zongxian, the biggest leader in the southeast, will not say anything."

"Give it to Hu Zongxian, His Majesty..."
