Chapter 195: That's the End?
The dark parts of the entire capital have all moved, and in just one day, hundreds of people surnamed Ji in the capital, including Ji Lin, have been imprisoned, and more people will be dragged out along the vines of these hundreds of people.
Except for some clans that have almost been reduced to commoners, Li Xin did not bother with them, almost all the clans in the capital were monitored by the Southwest Army, and for a while, as long as the surname Ji was in the capital, except for those who were directly arrested, the rest were all hiding at home and trembling.
Not only these clans, but also some officials in the court, everyone began to endanger themselves.
No one thinks that Li Xin is really at a loss, everyone thinks that this Governor Li is finally going to show his fangs, use the topic to play, and seek to usurp the throne!
After a detailed investigation by the dark department, Ji Lin Ji Yan and several other masterminds were quickly found out, in addition to these people, there were also dozens of accomplices who cooperated with the Ji family, and they were all found out.
If it were an ordinary case, the matter would probably be closed here, but this time it was different, none of these people's families could escape.
Originally, no matter what crime the clan committed, any official yamen was not qualified to interrogate, and could only be handed over to the sect to deal with, and most of them were grounded and fined, but Li Xin arrested people this time, without going through the three law divisions, nor through Jingzhao Mansion or any yamen, and directly asked the Southwest Army to come to the door to get people, in addition to Li Xin also requisitioned a prison in Jingzhao Mansion, and after catching people, he was directly sent to the prison.
The Southwestern Army moved quickly, and by the next night, the people who should have been arrested were almost caught.
Li Xin, who was still dressed in black, took Zhao Fang and others into this prison.
At this time, the nobles in the prison have lived up to their former rich and noble posture, not to mention wearing prison clothes, everyone has scattered hair, and the description is quite embarrassing.
Li Xin walked to the vicinity of Ji Lin and the other people's cells, moved a small stool, sat at the door of the cell, and then looked up at the people in these cells, and there was no joy or anger on their faces.
"Is today's result what you want to see?"
Governor Li looked coldly at the former Governor in front of him: "Do you want me to kill the Ji family so that you can get what you want?" β
Most of the Ji family members in the cell looked frightened, only the former Metropolitan Governor Ji Lin had no fear, he glared at Li Xin angrily, and opened his mouth to scold: "If you want to kill, you will kill, and you must pretend to be a good person here, and if you enter Beijing from the southwest, we and other royal families have never thought that we can live!" β
He looked at Li Xin and sneered: "Could it be that you, Li Changan, still think that you are really a loyal minister?" β
This is the disparity between Li Xin and the concept of this era.
In everyone's opinion, after Li Xin enters Beijing, he will immediately attack the Ji family after gathering power, and then let the dynasty change and the world change his surname.
Except for Li Xin himself, no one would think of a second way, and no one would think that Li Xin would let go of the Ji family.
These Ji family clans naturally thought so, and since they thought so, of course they would not wait for death on the spot, but would do their best to fight to the death.
Li Xin didn't say much, just slowly closed his eyes.
"I said I didn't want to kill you before, and you probably won't believe it anyway, but it doesn't matter if you believe it or not, I will definitely kill you now."
Ji Lin sneered: "You have rebelled, and you can still say such hypocritical words, Li Changan, at this time, you can openly say a few words of truth, I can still respect you as a hero!" β
"You, a Yulinlang from Yulinwei, also want to learn from those big-headed scholars and paste gold paper on your face?"
To tell the truth, from the perspective of this era, what Ji Lin said is true, and everyone in this era who stands in the position of Li Xin will inevitably do what Ji Lin said, but Li Xin ......
Originally, I really wanted to find a step for both sides, so that everyone could complete the transition of power peacefully, and both sides could accept it.
Perhaps this kind of thinking will seem a little naΓ―ve in the political arena, but this is Li Xinzhen's real idea before, and it also comes from his "little man" nature.
But now, Li Xin suddenly discovered that in the face of the general trend of Huanghuang, his own efforts alone could not change anything, if he didn't kill the Ji family, the Ji family would also want to kill him.
Li Xin lowered his eyebrows slightly, and laughed at himself: "Don't hide it from the Governor, if you can be honest, for the sake of my daughter-in-law, I originally planned to offend the old department of the Southwest Army and let my son change his surname to Ji." β
Speaking of this, he looked up at Ji Lin with an expressionless face: "But now, all of you Ji family members kneel in front of me, and there will be no more possibilities for this." β
Ji Lin's face changed slightly, and then he snorted coldly: "Don't be flattering, who in the capital doesn't know that you, a thief, can be eloquent, and you still want to coax me and wait at this juncture!" β
"Since the early years of Taikang, you Li Changan have been raising private soldiers in the southwest, plotting against you!"
"It's only because Emperor Jing mistrusted you that you are where you are today!"
Governor Ji sneered: "But don't be complacent." β
"To tell you the truth, before you entered the capital, Your Majesty had already given me the recipe for gunpowder, after the defeat of the capital, it will not take a few days for this recipe to spread all over the world, and then the biggest reliance of you southwest thieves will be gone!"
"There are countless loyal and righteous people in the world, and my Great Jin Ji clan is all over the world, how many years can you thieves be proud?"
Ji Lin scolded angrily.
"And what if you steal the artifact for a few years, when I put the chaos right in the Great Jin, I will definitely make the surname Li extinct in the world!"
Li Xin still had no expression on his face.
Gunpowder is not complicated, the reason why he was so secretive in the southwest in the early stage was because there had never been such a thing in the world, in fact, if this thing appeared on a large scale, even if it was not deliberately spread by the Ji family, it would not be a secret for ten or twenty years at most.
This can be seen from the fact that almost everyone in later generations knew the gunpowder song.
After hearing Ji Lin's intimidation, Li Xin still didn't have any expression on his face, but said quietly: "Then let's see, how many years can I still be proud." β
"It's a pity that most of the governors can't see this matter."
After saying this, Li Xin stood up from the stool, turned around silently, and said in a calm voice: "Let's do it." β
Zhao Fang, who was following him, bowed his head respectfully: "Obey!" β
Li Xin walked out of this prison without looking back.
Behind him, the sound of angry scolding and screaming continued.
Li Xin turned a deaf ear and walked out of the prison, and not long after leaving the prison door, he saw a beautiful woman dressed in plain white clothes, who had been waiting at the prison door for a long time.
Hui Niang, who was beside the beautiful woman, saluted Li Xin again and again: "Master Hou, I didn't stop the princess......"
Li Xin shook his head and said to her, "You go back first, I'll say a few words to Madame." β
The daughter-in-law of the Chen family sighed and turned her head away.
Li Xin looked at the Ninth Princess at this time, and his tone was a little helpless.
"They want to kill me."
"I want to kill Ping'er."
The ninth princess bowed her head silently: "Can you ...... That's it......"
In this cell, there are more than 400 people, and almost all of them are dead at this time, but in addition to these more than 400 clans in the capital, there are thousands of Ji family members.
Li Xin's tone was silent.
"I won't kill all of them except these people, but I'll continue to have people check ......"
"We can't afford to leave it behind."
