"It's too ruthless, it's too ruthless to kill......"

After finishing a day's work and returning to the temporary residence in the barracks, Yan Hua's hands were still trembling slightly.

Yan Hua is the eldest grandson of the Yan family in Gaomi County, and their family is the first Jiang Qi old clan to spend great efforts to win over after the county shou Heifu arrived in Jiaodong.

Although the Yan family declined, they also wanted to restore the status they had two hundred years ago, so they reciprocated the favor and actively sought refuge in the government and sent Yan Hua to Jimo Public School to study.

Half a year ago, Yan Hua successfully passed the exam and graduated, and became a small official beside Heifu, responsible for the communication between the government and the people of Jiaodong. When Qin Shi Huang entered Jiaodong, Yan Hua was also able to accompany him, although he always followed behind, but this has made the Yan family earn enough face, after the fall of Zhutian, he became the largest wealthy family in Jiaodong, and the act of relocating Zhutian in one breath also frightened the Yan family, and had to do things for the government wholeheartedly.

Linzi became chaotic, Yan Hua walked with the officials and disciples from the public school, as Heifu's translator, and took the Qin soldiers in and out of Linzi, a few days ago to put out fires and restore order, but today, it is to arrest people and kill people......

As the situation stabilized, Heifu also took off the mask of a good man, and ordered the government and soldiers to search for traitors who had slipped through the net in the three hundred lus of Linzi, and not let go of any horns - the Qin army killed nearly two thousand traitors when they entered the city, and the remaining more than 1,000 were hidden among the people. Coupled with the large number of weapons lost after the fall of the arsenal, if you sit idly by, there may be another rebellion in the future!

Yan Hua's job is equivalent to translation, informing the ordinary people of Qin's policy: re-implement the military collection order of a few years ago, and all weapons will be confiscated! If you secretly hide the arsenal of weapons, take the initiative to hand them over, and explain that you can be exempted from the crime, if you are found out, you will be punished as a traitor!

In addition, every Lilu must report the list of those idle light chivalrous and evil teenagers in Lilu. Without exception, all of these people were arrested, and there were as many as two or three thousand! Those who participated in the rebellion were punished for the crime of "Jiangyang" and were demoted to prisons, and their work was to build houses for tens of thousands of people who had lost their houses in the east of the city......

For a time, light chivalry skills, a profession that was once admired in the Qi country and had a lot of income, have now become a rat that cannot see the light, and it is difficult to maintain even secret activities.

Finally, there are the three old things in Qin Law: encouraging reporting, Shiwu Lianzai, and rebel Yi three clans......

"The rebels! Parents, brothers, and wives deserve to die! His neighbors will also be convicted. ”

Heifu asked Yan Hua, Laisheng and others to announce the matter one by one, and at the same time told everyone that the whistleblower could be exonerated from the crime!

Only the neighbor's report is exempt from responsibility, and Qin Luli also clearly stipulates that if the wife denounces her husband's crime, not only does she not need to sit together, but she can also keep her own property such as slaves and maids, clothes, and utensils......

For a time, there were a few people in the neighborhood who reported each other for self-preservation. There are even some light chivalrous wives who run over in public in order to survive, and sue their husbands who have been sharpening their swords at home all day and fleeing back after participating in the rebellion. Then, after Qin Shu came to the door to arrest people, he cleaned up the house and returned to his parents' house with the dowry.

The people of Qi are open, and it is easy for women to remarry.

In Linzi City, the trust between people is gone.

Of course, there were also many people who generously went to the death of the whole family, and a light man named Dongguo Li in the west of the city also participated in the rebellion. In order not to affect his beloved wife, he took the initiative to ask his wife to report him, but after discussing with his parents, his wife admitted that the whole family supported Dongguo Li against Qin, because he had received the kindness of Daxia Hua without injury, and he had the grace of helping him......

"A soldier dies for a confidant, and although we are cheap, we also know it."

Heifu was wrong, not everyone is running for profit, this era is not far away, people are still simple, and there are really many people who die for the "righteousness" that they think is right.

A few days later, the old and weak women and children crowded the Lilu where Linzi was a prison, and the Qin officials went in to take inventory, and the number of arrests was counted, which made people gasp.

"There are about 3,000 traitors, and 2,000 are dead today, and they are being identified one by one and hunting down their families. Another 500 have been captured, and hundreds are still on the run, so that the three Ruoyi tribes are at least tens of thousands......"

Even Linzi Juncheng hesitated, after all, people's hearts are flesh and blood, and the thought of killing tens of thousands of people in one go, everyone's teeth chattered.

"It would be better for us to write to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will make a decision."

With such a large number, even Heifu could not be the master, he slaughtered the Huns without mercy, but now he was a little hesitant, so he kicked the ball to the emperor.

Heifu only hinted at the end of the song, saying that population is the most valuable resource in the world, and that there is still a shortage of manpower in the Jiaodong salt works and gold mines, and that most of the ministers who work there are bachelors, or women can be sent there, and children can be sent to Guanzhong Yinguan......

A large number of criminals' families were taken into custody for the time being, but their husbands, brothers, and sons, who were directly involved in the rebellion, were killed in Zhuangyue City together with Tian An!

On April 25, in the city of Zhuangyue, where Su Qin was divided by five horses, Gongzi Tian An was subjected to "five punishments" here. The rule of not punishing doctors is long gone, but the former noble virtuous son was dismembered and cut into pulp, and such a miserable death was enough to shock the Linzi people who were forced to watch this scene.

Hefu is right, times have changed, in a new era, everyone has a new identity, and bloodline can no longer keep you safe.

In addition to Tian An, there were hundreds of human heads on the ground, and the axes in the executioner's hands were cut off and curled, and dozens of them were replaced, and blood flowed all over Zhuangyue City, and their feet were slimy.

Yan Hua vomited on the spot, and when he came back, he threw away all the clothes and shoes that were splashed with blood, and he couldn't slow down for a long time, thinking only about one thing: "Killing 500 people is so terrible, how many people?" ”

"Brother Yan, is it still sympathetic to the traitor?"

Laisheng, who lived in the same courtyard with him, did not think so, his family was poor, although during the public school, he won several "scholarships", but he was used to frugality, and he was reluctant to throw away his blood-stained clothes, so he squatted in the courtyard and washed it with well water, and when he saw Yan Hua's pale face, he smiled, beckoned him over, and sat by the well to enlighten him.

"Brother Yan think about it carefully, how many Guo, Gao, Yan, and Bao people did the Tian clan kill when they were in Qi, and how many clans loyal to the Lu clan were killed? It doesn't add up to 10,000, but there are 5,000! And Tian's heart is ruthless, and he doesn't even let go of the young and weak Qi Ruzi! ”

"If there is no county guard, let the Tian family restore successfully, rebuild the Qi country, and settle accounts after the autumn, I am afraid that the Yan family and those who work for the Qin official mansion will be slaughtered, at that time, there will be no family members of the light man who will come to sympathize with Brother Yan!"

"So in this matter, either we kill them, or they kill us!"

Laisheng thought it through, he knew that all the people from public schools were already tied to the Qin Dynasty, and if this big tree collapsed, they would also be in a miserable situation, so helping the government suppress the restoration rebellion was the only choice!

Yan Hua is right to think about it, but he has a weak personality, and he still can't pass this threshold.

So Laisheng said: "The county guard has tried not to kill or injure, didn't he say that this time he entered Linzi in order to prohibit the violence of the rebels, the soldiers of the rebellious country, the city of thousands of zhang, and the city of ten thousand families, and no longer give priority to beheading." If you change a general, you can't kill people in Yingcheng and let Linzi blood spread through the city? The county guard has saved thousands of lives in Linzi, and even the families of those traitors, he has tried his best to save them in the song, leaving the old and weak women and children alive......"

"Don't kill it again, after all, it's all the Qiren Township Party."

Yan Hua shook his head and sighed: "I just hope that Linzi can settle down and expel Zhutian, so that there will be no source of turmoil, like Jiaodong now, isn't it good......

"I hope so."

After Yan Hua returned to the house to rest, Laisheng looked at the bottomless well water and muttered: "If I were Your Majesty, it would be better to kill the tens of thousands of people to prevent future troubles......"

He reacted immediately, immediately slapped himself, and scolded: "Laisheng, Laisheng, you don't want to live anymore, what nonsense!" ”

……

In the thirty-second year of Qin Shi Huang, on the second day of the fifth month, in the Linzi Palace, the temporary residence of the government, the Linzi County Supervisor Yushi solemnly held an edict, which was sent quickly by the post station for 800 miles.

"Wei Junshou, this is His Majesty's edict, the county guard...... Do you want to open it in person? ”

"Since it was issued to the three of us, who opened the seal differently?"

Heifu shook his head: "Prison Imperial History, you can read it." ”

He was still a little worried, and when he opened it, it simply and rudely wrote "All the pits!" ”

The head of the superintendent Shi unfolded the edict, which first reprimanded the Linzi county guard, cut off his official title, and waited for the crime to be punished, and then separately praised Heifu's measures to quell the rebellion.

Next, it is the disposition of the Linzi Rebellion and the families of the traitors......

"The traitor's parents pitted him, and the women were sent to the bitter cold land of Yuyang, Liaodong, and married the armored people, and the children were sent to the Guanzhong hidden official ......"

Heifu's proposal, Qin Shi Huang adopted one and a half of it, and the women did not give it to Jiaodong, probably thinking that the exile was too close and the punishment was too light, so throw these Qi sinners to the Yan Kingdom, which has a blood feud with the Qi State for generations, this trick is a bit ruthless.

The remaining old people, at least three or four thousand, are all dying old people, although the Qin Dynasty respects the elderly, but the elderly subordinate concubines, but the status is very low, the Legalist officials think that this group of people can not work, but also waste food, not worth raising......

"That's the best of things."

Heifu comforted himself, if he hadn't suppressed the turmoil and extinguished the fire, there would have been more than 30,000 or 40,000 people killed in Linzi City!

At this time, the prison prince looked at Heifu, and stopped talking, could it be that the edict had not been read yet?

"Your Majesty also said that the matter of killing the traitor's parents will be supervised by the Jiaodong County Guard himself!"

Hefu took the edict and swept it twice, and it was true.

After he was silent for a while, he slowly bowed his hand in the direction of Pengcheng: "Heifu...... Yes, sir. ”

This means that he must personally give an order, in full view of everyone, to send three or four thousand gray-haired old men to the Yellow Spring!

The emperor's intention to do this could not be more obvious, this is to make Heifu an executioner, stained with blood that cannot be washed off, the blood of Qi people!

When the poor festival is seen, one by one. In Qi Tai Shi Jian, in Jin Dong Fox Pen. The Qi people have a tradition of remembering history, and now that the Qi country is destroyed, there are still many people who read the people, and the blood on the black husband's resume cannot be erased!

"Good guy, in the history textbooks of later generations, the executioners who slaughtered the rebels and killed innocents indiscriminately will add me!"

Heifu shook his head helplessly, and when he walked out, he thought in his heart: "In ancient China, who suppressed the 'rebel army' and had blood in his hands?" ”

"Is it Yue Wumu, Qi Shaobao, Wang Shengren, Zeng Hu Zuoli? Or ......"

Heifu smiled: "Cao Mengde? ”
