The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 520

The "bandit training program" of the Chen family in Guangling died just after it started.

Thanks to Zhong Hui's report, Ma Long was very clear about the Chen family's every move.When the generals of the Chen family took the Chen family's private soldiers across the Huaihe River from Huainan, and honestly followed Chen Yue's arrangement to Ling County, they had just made preparations to "loot" the county.Ji Han's Xuzhou Corps also appeared here.

Then, the number of this team was as high as 3000, and under the instigation of the Patriarch, they were domineering in Guangling County on weekdays.Bullying the serfs in the manor was good at all kinds of things, and the Chen family's private soldiers, who really couldn't go into battle with a knife, collapsed in an instant.

The so-called "under the three trees, what can you ask for".In addition, the Chen family, as a Kanto family, has been rotten for decades on top of the benefits of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System.The master of the family is dying, and the people in charge below are actually dying too.Therefore, Malone quickly got all the confessions and related evidence he wanted.

So the Xuzhou Legion moved quickly again, and wiped out Chen Yue and others who were still waiting for news from Zhong Hui!
Because the Guangling Chen family is one of more than 40 top families in the Kanto region, it is rare for a family that only focuses on cultivating a county (they are all top families, and they often have great power in the court, which also leads to most of the top families. In addition to running the lair, there are also manors and influences in other places).Therefore, Ji Han checked the household tax, which stimulated the Guangling Chen family the strongest.Therefore, the Chen family of Guangling was the first family to jump out.

But the result is naturally the worst.

"Brother, after taking down all the core members of the Chen family. After further investigation, Ma Xiaoxing obtained a total of 510 million mu of land before and after Beiguangling, with 18 plots. In twelve cellars, three thousand catties of gold were found. , 13 billion yuan. The food stored in each manor is no less than tens of millions of stones... Xiaoxing estimates that there are at least [-]% of the above figures on the Nanguangling Mausoleum..."

"Well, I already have the figures for Nanguangling. It's not as much as [-]%, but it's not too far off."

"Hey, it's shocking. Brother, remember when you and my brother first arrived in Fuling County, the county had a total population of just over 2 and less than 15 arable land?"

"So the aristocratic family is the biggest beetle of the country! So many people and land are controlled by the aristocratic family, where does the country's tax come from? How can various industries develop? These guys usually don't pay much tax. After one or two hundred years, the savings Of course it was terrifying."

"Brother, how should the Chen family rebel, how should we deal with it?"

"Hahaha~~ Wushuang, you have to change your mind. Now that there is a Supreme Court, how to decide whether to convict is a matter for the court. Our Prime Minister's Office cannot interfere. However, the right to public prosecution in treason cases It’s still on our side. So, next, you go to Xuzhou yourself, investigate and collect evidence and file a public prosecution in the Xuzhou court.”

"No, please don't worry, brother. Brother Yu will definitely make it an iron case."

In October 275 AD, after strict evidence collection.On behalf of the Dahan Prime Minister's Office, Vice Premier Jian Jian filed a public prosecution against the Guangling Chen family's treason case to the Xuzhou Court.

Needless to say, Chen Gang led the army to attack the county seat of Ling County.The crux of the matter is to link this behavior with the treasonous plan of the core members of the Chen family in Guangling.

The main physical evidence is the letters written by Chen Yue to Zhong Hui and Wang Rong, and the approval documents of several main housekeepers of the Chen family for allocating money and food to Chen Gang.

As for the testimony, it was really a bit unexpected.

The leader of the family, Chen Gang, testified in person, saying that Chen Yue asked him to pretend to be a bandit, and then tried to expand his power.

Several housekeepers of the Chen family also stood up to testify, and provided several hiding places of the Chen family's property.

If the behavior of the above people can also be explained by the falling of the tree and the scattering of the monkeys.Then, the one who broke Chen Yue's last line of psychological defense was Wang Rong, the current Patriarch of the Langya Wang Clan, who actually came to the Xuzhou court in Xiapi to testify against Chen Yue's rebellion!
So, in the end, Chen Yue, who had completely collapsed, readily admitted all his crimes.

Li Mi, who personally rushed to Xuzhou for the trial, finally made a verdict:
The case of Guangling Chen's treason has conclusive evidence and clear facts.According to the newly promulgated "Big Han Criminal Law", Chen Yue, the head of the Chen family, beheaded!The seven elders of the Chen family were all beheaded.

The rest of the Chen family, the man and the underage woman surnamed Chen were all exiled to Liaodong County in Pingzhou.Foreign women married into the Chen family can decide on their own whether they want to return home or follow their husbands to Liaodong.

All property of the Chen family was confiscated.The tenant farmers and domestic slaves of the Chen family were all recorded in the Guangling County Government's civil register.The state distributes the land and includes it in the tax-paying population.

The Chen family's private soldiers who participated in the rebellion, and several family generals headed by them, should be beheaded according to the law.But on the one hand, this rebel army did not cause much actual harm to ordinary people.On the one hand, the leader of the rebel army has the credit for taking the initiative to confess.Therefore, these more than 3000 people were all exempted from the death penalty.

However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped.These more than 3000 people were all forced to join the construction brigade under the Ministry of Industry as the permanent construction team of the Ministry of Industry to carry out the construction of various public projects.As sinners, these guys were only paid by the state for the first three years without any compensation.In addition, compulsory management will be carried out, and anyone who dares to escape will be beheaded.After three years, those who want to withdraw will be allocated land by the state and included in the civil register to pay taxes.Those who are willing to stay will be paid according to their technical level.

In short, due to the relationship of the time traveler, the extremely bloody criminal law of family punishment has completely disappeared in the new Han legal system.In the current situation where the actual number of Han Chinese can never reach 2000 million, any Han Chinese, as long as they have not committed heinous crimes.All are worth keeping.

Moreover, the traversers naturally do not think that women are the appendages of men, so when men commit crimes, women must either be killed along with them, or be bought into the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, which was also abolished by Guan Yi.Instead, it is a more humane arrangement: if you want to serve your sentence with your husband and son, please feel free.If you want to divorce, go back to your natal family or start a new life of your own.Also feel free to.

……

"Boy, congratulations to father, for suppressing the Guangling Chen Clan so smoothly."

It was already November when the news from Xuzhou reached Chang'an.Two brothers Guan Fu and Guan Hui, both studying at Longshouyuan College, returned home during the holiday.Qi Qi came to congratulate Guan Yi.

"Hehehe, this is just a good start to this difficult battle. Next, there are still many things to do."

"Father's words are true. Father, we have doubts."

"Go ahead."

"Father, the Chen family's steward and family will be betrayed by the seller. Perhaps it can be explained by the fact that he survived after confessing. It's just Wang Rong and Wang Suichong?"

"Hehehe, the Chen family's steward and family will betray the owner, and the reputation of this life will be completely ruined. This kind of thing, that is, the Kanto family has been rotten for decades, and the servants below will also rot. .During the years of the Han Dynasty, and even the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. How dare domestic slaves rebel against their masters? Hey, so, when the elites of this country die, the ordinary people below will die. Then the whole country and the whole nation will die They will gradually lose the iron-blooded masculinity of the two Hans, especially the former Hans.

As for why you said Wang Suichong took the initiative to stand up and testify.Hehe, of course he didn't take the initiative to stand up.It was Wang Yifu (Wang Yan) who stayed in Chang'an for his father who wrote him a letter. "

"A letter? Well, this Wang Suichong is a well-known celebrity in Kanto after all. He stood up like this, but his reputation was ruined! Father can make him stand up with a letter?"

"Hahahaha~~ You guys are still too young." Guan Yi stroked his beard and laughed, then patted the shoulders of the two teenagers: "Who is Wang Chongchong? He is the last of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove. What did he do? He followed Ji Kang in his early years." Waiting for people to criticize the current affairs and mock the Sima family. As a result, when the Sima family killed someone, Wang Yichong hurriedly bowed to Sima Master. This kind of spineless literati, as long as he has experienced the power of the state power once, he will be a good person in power for the rest of his life. Dog! As for reputation? Hehe, Wang Suichong watched Zhong Shiji frame Ji Kang and did not help him back then, so his reputation was stinky. But after the establishment of the Jin Kingdom, as his official position continued to rise, didn’t this reputation slowly come back? ?Quite a few people in our nation have a memory similar to that of fish, at most only for a moment. For example, if someone murders children all over the world, the people of our country are often filled with righteous indignation and shouted to kill. But after a few days, everyone will remember this Forgot about it."

"Uh... The children don't quite understand what father said at the end just now."

"It's not important. In short, my father has promised Wang Suichong to let him serve as an official. He was conscripted to join the army as the secretary of the Da Sima Mansion."

"Ah? Father, why do you use such a poor character?"

"To be a father is not to use him as a moral model, but to use his ability to do things. Wang Suicong still has a lot of characteristics in doing things. He can often find the most critical point in complicated affairs. You have to remember , Those who make simple things complicated are adding to the chaos. Those who make complicated things simple are officials! Besides, haven’t you all heard the story of “the last egg” for your father? The family is still very strong after all. Yes, it is absolutely impossible to force all the aristocratic families to rebel by cutting them across the board. It must be divided and disintegrated, and it must be gradually figured out."
