Chapter 90 Thunder Means
Chapter 90: Thunder Methods
After Fan Zhongyan and Yue Fei received the order, they selected three thousand elite troops to go to Nanxiang.
Nanxiangcheng, Zhangjiayuan.
Today is the 70th birthday of Zhang Xiong, the old lady of the Zhang family. In this era when you can call yourself an old man at the age of 30 and know your destiny at fifty, it is already a blessing for Ren Rui to live to be seventy years old. For this reason, all major families in Deng Kingdom sent people to congratulate him.
Just as the Zhang family was celebrating their birthday with joy for their old lady, Fan Zhongyan and Yue Fei led 3,000 elite troops to surround the Zhang family mansion.
"Master, it's not good!" A servant stumbled in. At this time, Zhang Hui, the head of the Zhang family, was talking with his father, today's old birthday star Zhang Xiong. After hearing this, he couldn't help but frown, "It's my birthday today, what's wrong, so he scolded: "Why are you so panicked?"
The servant was obviously frightened and didn't hear Zhang Hui's anger at all. He just said in a panic: "The head of the family is not good, there are troops outside surrounding our mansion!"
"What!" Everyone present was shocked. The Zhang family is one of the three major families of Deng State. King Deng Xuan once promised that he would not be punished for his crimes. Moreover, today is the 70th birthday of the old lady of the Zhang family. Who was the brave and dared to surround the Zhang family at this critical moment?
Zhang Hui was also surprised, comforted his old man a few words, and said, "I'll go out and see who is so bold to surround my Zhang family." After that, he raised his foot and prepared to walk out.
"No, we've come in!" Before Zhang Hui could go out, Fan Zhongyan and Yue Fei led their men in.
Zhang Hui did not know Yue Fei, but knew Fan Zhongyan. When Fan Zhongyan came to Nanxiang to investigate the mob rebellion, he came to the Zhang family and said, "Shangshu Fan, I don't know what happened to my Zhang family, so that Fan Shangshu led his troops to surround my Zhang family?"
Fan Zhongyan sneered: "After repeated verification by the court, it can be confirmed that the mob rebellion in Nanxiang was caused by the Zhang family. At the same time, the Zhang family members have repeatedly violated the national laws for many years. At the order of the king, they temporarily searched the Zhang family. All the people involved in the case were temporarily put into jail and waited for the results of the investigation."
"What does Fan Shangshu mean? Didn't Fan Shangshu know that King Xuan had said back then that the three major families must be punished for harming the country?" Zhang Hui was a little nervous, his whole body trembled, and once again brought out the promise of King Deng Xuan that year.
Fan Zhongyan said: "Of course I know, but the king said that the crimes committed by the Zhang family are too numerous to write, which is enough to shake my foundation. Therefore, follow the will of King Xuan and treat the crime of disaster to the country. The head of the Zhang family should not make it difficult for me. Besides, King Xuan's promise is the promise of the royal family and has nothing to do with me. I only obey the orders of the king. Since the king said that your Zhang family's crimes are unforgivable, then it is unforgivable. General Yue, I'm sorry."
Yue Fei smiled and replied, "You are polite to Shangshu Fan and serve the king. I will die. I will come and take someone."
As soon as he finished speaking, countless soldiers rushed into the Zhang family. Seeing this, Zhang Hui roared: "Deng is ungrateful, and I will not let you go even if I die!"
Today is the birthday of Zhang Xiong, the old lady of the Zhang family. All the Zhang family members were present, which saved Fan Zhongyan and Yue Fei a lot of effort. Soon, all the people on the Zhang family on the list were taken down, the rest were expelled, and the Zhang family compound was also seized.
Deng Sheng's decisive behavior made all the aristocratic families present frightened. Such a large-scale investigation of aristocratic families has never happened in the history of the Deng Kingdom. Among them, the people who were the He family and the Li family were the three major aristocratic families. They were also indispensable to the things that the Zhang family had done. Today, the Deng family could move the Zhang family and the He family and Li family in the future. They felt that the situation was serious, so they left Nanxiang one after another, returned to their family, and reported to the family.
While Fan Zhongyan and Yue Fei were searching the Zhang family, Deng Ai, outside Nanxiang City, also led his men to break into Chenjia Village, took down the initiator of the riot, and controlled all the Chen family.
A few days later, Fan Zhongyan and Yue Fei returned to Wancheng with all the people involved, while Deng Ai stayed in Nanxiang to monitor the remaining Zhang and Chen family members.
In Ganyang Palace, Fan Zhongyan reported the matter to Deng Sheng.
"I have reported to the king that I have followed the king's order to capture the Zhang family and the Chen family involved in the case, and also investigated the Zhang family, fulfilling their mission. All the Zhang family involved in the case and the chief culprit of the Nanxiang riot have been escorted back to Wancheng. After hearing the king's resignation!" Fan Zhongyan bowed.
Deng Sheng nodded and said, "Since that's the case, the Ministry of Justice will take the lead in investigating and prosecution one by one, and everyone will be punished according to national laws."
"Here!" Fan Zhongyan led the order.
After Fan Zhongyan left, Deng Sheng called Su Hong again and said, "Su Qing, you will send the criminal materials of the He family and the Li family to the two families tomorrow. By the way, I will tell them that if I hand over the list, I can leave it alone!"
"King, this..." Su Hong was a little surprised. Didn't Deng Sheng shout a few days ago that he would never tolerate the traitor? Why did he let the He family and the Li family work together and say that he would be willing to blame him if he handed over the person?
Of course, Deng Sheng did this without any target. The reason was that the words Deng Yong and Deng Sheng said two days ago. Deng Yong's original words were like this: "Since the Zhang family has already been punished and has played a role in killing chickens and scaring the monkeys, there is no need to deal with the He family and the Li family. After all, the three major families have made outstanding contributions since the founding of the Deng State. If the three major families were completely eliminated, it would make people feel that the Deng family was indifferent and merciless, and they would also make the aristocratic families separate from our royal family."
Deng Sheng also seriously considered Deng Yong's words and felt that there was no need to kill them anymore. After all, the three major aristocratic families have been standing in Deng for more than two hundred years. Eliminating one of the Zhang families has made all the families panic all day long. If the He family and the Li family are really eliminated, these aristocratic families may not dare to continue to stay in Deng State. This will be a bit of a loss. After all, the top talent Deng Sheng can be obtained through the summoning system, but the middle and lower-level officials still rely on the aristocratic families to provide it.
It is not a joke that kings and scholars share the world. In this era, ordinary people have no capital to study, and there are no books, so most scholars are in aristocratic families.
It was because Deng Sheng considered this that he would say what he had done before.
Although Su Hong was a little strange about Deng Sheng's transformation, he was smart and not unaware of the tricks. Since Deng Sheng said he would not pursue it, it depends on whether the He family and the Li family would be human.
After half a month of investigation and interrogation, everything was settled. All the people involved in the Zhang family were killed and killed. The ones who should be killed were exiled, including Zhang Hui, the leader of the Zhang family. On the day when the Zhang family was sentenced, Zhang Xiong, who was 70 years old, passed away. The surviving Zhang family also fell into pieces and fell apart, and the once huge Zhang family disappeared.
Just after the Zhang family was sentenced, the Li family and the He family also received a list given to them by Deng Sheng. When they saw the Zhang family's fate, they all understood that Deng Sheng was trying to show their net. If they didn't want to be like the Zhang family, they could only abandon the car and keep the handsome guy.
Soon, the Li family and the He family sent the people to Wancheng.
