Chapter 618 Proper Handling
A hint of chuckle appeared at the corner of Li Zhi's mouth:
"Because of your audacity, you have touched my bottom line! And you moved the port of Mingzhou, which is within the scope of the city's authority! β
Wu Sibao knows that he can't relax a little, otherwise his years of gains will come to naught:
"Do you know that cutting off people's wealth is like killing your parents?"
"Let your mother's 10,000-year-old dog stink! Your so-called wealth is to forcibly plunder, smuggle, plunder people and wealth, kill people and destroy mouths, secretly communicate with local forces, and oppress the imperial court officials to enclose the land, do you think that a person of great wisdom such as the Empress Wu can allow you to do so wantonly? Which one is not a sin of beheading? Still dreaming! β
"Mr. Li is too alarmist, isn't he?"
"Wu Sibao, you are also in your thirties, why are you still so naΓ―ve? What is the current situation that we do not know? The martial arts family is currently passive everywhere, and there are so many dirty things dug up by the emperor, do you think you can escape? β
"What you say is getting more and more out of character!" Although Wu Sibao was still stiff-mouthed, he was actually worried in his heart, and his voice was extremely low.
Li Zhi smiled, "No score? The emperor has obviously been arranging for several years, you are just a small side cousin of the martial family, this incident, without the emperor's action, you will be pushed out by the martial family Believe it or not? Instead of being passive in the future, it is better to take the initiative and expose the crimes of others, but it will end up with self-preservation. Also, if you insist on your own ideas, I don't mind reporting this matter to Empress Wu, where to go, you weigh it! β
Wu Sibao could no longer suppress the fear in his heart, what Li Zhi said was indeed that under the current deliberate suppression of the martial arts by the emperor, the only people who would be protected by the martial queen would be her two nephews.
If not, it will inevitably cause a civil war in the Tang Dynasty, and the only definite consequence of the fight between the surname Li and the surname Wu is that the military and national strength will retreat for decades, and as for the problem of the people's suffering, it is not something they can control.
In this case, he is almost a scapegoat, after all, his men threaten the safety of the envoy of a state.
Even Empress Wu herself did not want the intimate exchanges between the two countries that had just been established to break down because of this, which would lead to frequent border wars again.
"I'll only give you one day, and tomorrow at this time, you won't do anything else, I can only take my own way!" Li Zhi did not forget to remind him.
As if to show his determination, Li Zhi got up and walked in front of Li Bangtai and slapped him with an official hat on his head.
Holding this person's chest high, he fell heavily to the ground, and stepped on his chest with one foot: "If you are a dog official, so despicable that there is no lower limit, what is the use of leaving you!" β
As he spoke, the Shang Fang sword appeared in his hand at some point, "Who said that Shang Fang's sword can only be aimed at the royal family surnamed Li, the entire Tang Dynasty belongs to the Li family, and if you infringe on the interests of the surname Li, it is forbidden to violate the dignity of the royal family." β
After speaking, with the sound of Cang Chang's tense spring, Shang Fang's sword was already unsheathed, but when he saw that he waved his hand straight down, the blood light collapsed in Li Bangtai's cry of sacrifice, and his head rolled to the side.
Letting the blood drip from the sword body, Li Zhi turned around and walked towards Lang Getai: "You dare to call me the King of Loyalty and Righteousness by name, it is already a crime, but have you ever said something to me?" See what can be forgiven for your use! β
Lang Getai's lips were already trembling, as if he had jumped out a few words with great difficulty: "Mr. Li, there are a lot of them, but please spare the crime of disrespect!" β
"I know that you are thinking in your heart at the moment, thinking that you have escaped today's catastrophe, and you will go back to your Lang family to match it, in order to make a big thing small. But I really didn't pay attention to the Lang family, holding it
This sword, in your Lang family, kill three in and three out, who do you think dares to stop me? As long as the emperor reigns for one day, this sword will have three points of holy will, what can your Lang family do with me? β
Li Zhi's words made Lang Getai tremble,
Because the other party's words are not exaggerated at all, he has real evidence in hand, and the actions of himself and others are indeed deceiving the court and violating the dignity and interests of the royal family.
Even if the Empress Wu is willing to help the Lang family come out, it will be an afterthought, and intending to interfere with the person holding the Shang Fang sword is already against the emperor's holy will.
When Lang Getai was trembling into a ball, Wu Sibao stepped forward and said, "Mr. Li, in the face of the Wu family, how about I wait for the discussion of this matter before making a decision?" β
Li Zhi turned his head and glanced at him indifferently, before turning his head to look at Lang Getai: "Today, I will spare you on General Wu's face, but what happened, I will wait for your statement tomorrow!" β
After that, he no longer paid attention to this person, but turned around and walked to Li Bangtai's subordinates, and said to Yin Zheng, the adjutant of the Assassin's Mansion: "You are Yin Zheng?" β
This person nodded again and again, where could he still speak, his top boss was cut off by Shang Fangjian in front of him, and the blood gushing from his neck was still overflowing.
The Tang Dynasty's official hierarchy was already very perfect, and at that time there were two levels of administrative regions, namely prefectures and counties, and at that time, the division of each territory was already very detailed.
The assassin is the governor of the state, and he has always been just a small position in a place, in charge of some people in a certain place, and he is suppressed by various official positions above, and he has no real power at all.
Although the state was equivalent to a city, it was much larger than today's city, so it was also subdivided into large states, medium states, and small states, and each state would have a history of thorns.
Mingzhou belongs to Zhongzhou, which is at the same level as our current prefecture-level cities.
"Come on, take him!" When Li Zhi said this, his eyes were still fixed on Yin Zheng's eyes.
He was not worried that no one would respond to him, and among the people who came to the Assassin's Mansion, there were people with shackles in their hands, and they were originally going to arrest him.
Sure enough, the two people holding shackles walked up, although they trembled up and down like chaff, but they didn't dare to disobey Li Zhizhi's words in the slightest.
Li Zhi looked at Yin Zheng, who was also electrocuted: "You are Li Bangtai's wife and brother, destined to be a nest with him, I will wait for your complete confession tomorrow at this time, and maybe I will spare your life!" β
"Who is the leader of the government army?" Li Zhi said loudly.
In ancient times, there were no professional soldiers in the real sense, and the government military system was relatively reasonable.
The leaders of the government soldiers stationed in various prefectures were awarded honorary officers and post rewards by the Tang Dynasty to meritorious soldiers, and they were still different from half-soldiers and half-peasants, and they have received additional attention and preferential treatment.
But in essence, it is still the nature of the integration of soldiers and peasants, and in order to keep the hard-won position, there are very few such people who do something illegal, so Li Zhi will explain this matter to such people.
As soon as the words fell, two people flashed in the crowd.
"These people will be locked up in confinement within a day, and those who have not been involved will be restored to their freedom when the evidence of the crime is collected, and I have no right to interfere in politics, but there are officials on the seaside ship, and they will then rush to the Assassin's Mansion for temporary supervision!"
Li Zhi went to the Western Regions to get married, and naturally there would be officials from the imperial court, in addition to the representatives of the royal family, there would be officials from various key departments, including a ministry, which happened to come in handy at this time.
Shangshu Province
This is Guan Ming's jurisdiction, so he will naturally send some of his own people to Li Zhi's side, so there is no need to worry about this.
Then he looked at Wu Sibao again, "As for the second master of the Qu family, you are limited to escorting it to the Assassin Mansion before dark, and there will be someone else to guard it, I don't want the navy to go to the mouth tonight!" β
He is now holding Wu Sibao to the death, and agreeing to take another idle position to this person, he is already on the net side, and he knows that this person will never dare to use secret means.
As several groups of people left in a hurry, Li Zhi and Ge Lin whispered a few words, and Mahdi and the others walked out.
Hisham said worriedly: "These people are sitting on the ground, and Sir is not afraid that they will secretly rebel?" β
Li Zhi shook his head and smiled: "If you run away, the monks can't run away from the temple, unless they would rather give up their family's inheritance!" β
Mahdi has a deep understanding of Li Zhi's measures, and he also smiled:
"Hisham, you have only seen the surface, that martial artist understands this principle better than anyone else, he has been discussing with Mr. Li for so long, do you think Mr. Li did not leave a secret hand?"
Hisham pondered for a while, then he understood, and shook his head happily, obviously he glanced at Li Zhigao, this person does not look young, and his methods are still quite clever.
After such a incident, the people of the Western Regions no longer had the intention of wandering, so they proposed to return to the ship.
Li Zhi glanced at Fu Chen, who understood, stepped forward, came up with his ear, and listened to his arrangement.
After giving up Fu Chen, Li Zhi left with everyone, and the onlookers along the way, no one dared to step forward at the passing place, and they all dispersed far away.
He had left Fuchen behind to save Green's wife and children, and he had learned everything in the memories of the third-level master.
The place where the mother and son are imprisoned is in the dungeon not far away, which will make Greene feel at ease and do his best to assist in all aftermath matters.
Of course, Li Zhi didn't forget to explain it to him, and remember to loot all the things in that shop.
There is a warehouse with a radius of more than ten zhang at the back of the store, which is full of smuggled foreign goods, obviously the larger one in the local area, otherwise how could a first-class master be sent to guard it?
Soon after returning to the ship, after explaining that the official Lang and the others went to the Assassin's Mansion, Miao Liguo and Zong An arrived.
These two people are two of the five members of the Pei family, who were borrowed by Li Ting, and originally wanted to do a big job in Mingzhou Mansion, but unfortunately the third-level master sent by the martial arts family to Wu Sibao greatly restricted the actions of the two newly promoted first-level masters.
But even so, the two secretly collected a lot of evidence, and Li Zhi's move can be regarded as triggering a chaos in Mingzhou in advance.
Their arrival gave Li Zhi a lot of support, after all, Wu Sibao and others have been entrenched in the local area for more than ten years, and the background is still very deep.
Without these two people in the navy to respond, it would not be easy to completely replace the temporary power in the military.
After learning that Li Zhi had arrived, the two had passed the news to Ezhou Mansion through special channels, and the two places were only separated by more than 1,600 miles.
They also handed Li Zhi a long list of hundreds of people, including the descendants of most of the forces.
Obviously, the two of them have made great progress in the past two months, and they have far exceeded Li Ting's expectations for them. (https:)
