1139 Homecoming

May is a bloody month, and Zhuge Hui's death is just the beginning.

In the rest of the month, new heads will be added almost every day on the south side of the Suzaku Big Trunk. These heads will be displayed in different heights depending on the crime, status during death, and after death. A landscape has been formed in the city.

In Jiankang City, which is gradually reviving prosperity, people occasionally walk here in groups, pointing at the high-rise heads and making comments. They have a cruelty that the spectators are not harmful to them.

This time the conviction of rebellion was very serious. The sentences were sentenced to beheading, including Zhuge Hui and his immediate relatives and a group of party members, as many as fifty people. Wang Hu Zhi and Wang Qizhi of the Wang family of Langya were naturally not spared. Although they finally agreed with Wang Tian's frame-up of Zhuge Hui and Qingxuxiang Party, even if there was any gain, they were destined not to fall on themselves.

More than 30 people were sentenced to death but did not need to behead, including Cai Mo's legitimate son who died in the rural rebellion and the guards who took the lead in causing trouble, killing several generals of the guards Zhou Mo, as well as some of the leaders of the Liyang rebellion soldiers. Yu Yi's father-in-law Liu Sui was also not spared.

It is also worth mentioning that the crimes of the Yu family in Yingchuan were discussed. Yu Yi once colluded with Wang Yunzhi to plunder the villagers in the suburbs of the capital, but did not directly collude with Zhuge Hui. He led the Liyang soldiers to the capital and followed the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager. This is certain, so the Yu family in Yingchuan was not guilty of rebellion.

However, the two brothers Yu Bing and Yu Yi were also charged with many crimes in this turmoil. The biggest thing was that they were incompetent, which caused the Empress Dowager to be worried and afraid of death. She was unable to control the crowd, so she caused the Liyang chaos to cause trouble to the capital.

Now both brothers have died, so they have taken away all their ranks and their family heirs at the same time. The legitimate son involved was executed together, and the rest of the son was assigned to the criminal people and was imprisoned forever.

Then there was a handling of the officials of Taiwan officials. Situ Chu Hu was in charge of the administration, but he could not observe the problems before they were discovered and he was unable to settle the chaos afterwards. He even went out to forge an edict to build a Taiwan, because he deprived all officials of his titles and demoted them to white-handedness and was imprisoned.

The Secretary of the Central Committee He Chong was slightly responsible, but he was also responsible for his duties. He was exempted from his post and sent the Governor of Sizhou to supervise the construction and restoration of the mausoleum.

The other current officials also made certain derogatory measures according to their official positions, whether they were confidential or not, and almost no one could avoid them. Although the accountability involved was very wide, compared with the Qingxu Overseas Chinese clan who was almost killed, the mere punishment for the demotion of the salary was considered a very minor punishment.

Moreover, these Taiwanese officials also understand that the most important cleaning has been completed. Even if the implicated people are punished, they will only go through a form. After this round of cleaning, nearly half of the officials in Taiwan have vacancies. In addition to the selection of states and counties, those in Taiwan will definitely proceed in sequence afterwards.

Therefore, although the entire liquidation was very popular, after the bottom line was drawn, people's hearts gradually became stable.

With such large-scale cleaning, how the reaction of people in the bureau is a hidden danger, and the voices in the countryside and counties outside the capital are also very deadly.

In terms of sentencing and punishment for the entire counter-case, Shen Zhezi seemed to be aggressive and started killing, but he also followed a principle, that is, beheading the head and tail, and arresting the big and letting go of the small. The main imposition of heavy punishment is still concentrated on those who are sure to be investigated in the time of the countryside. As long as there is a little crime involved, he will definitely not be spared.

However, in dealing with rural chaos, the methods are much gentler. Danyang, Wuzhong, Langya and other villagers who participated in rural chaos were not directly convicted of the crime. The more conspicuous one was Danyang Renqiu.

When the Langya Township Rebellion was characterized as part of the rebellion, Ren Qiu's biggest crime of inciting the Wuren Township in Dunan to kill Langya was no longer the case, and it could even be called the name of the rebel army. However, Shen Zhezi himself did not agree with the so-called "rebel army", nor could he simply acknowledge Ren Qiu's behavior, or even commend it.

Therefore, Ren Qiu was eventually convicted of the crime of destroying the household and destroying the famous officials of Zhongxingyuan, and was detained for his post and imprisonment, and sent to Heluo Town for imprisonment.

In the opinion of a discerning person, this is actually a kind of care and protection for Ren Qiu. After all, he was too conspicuous during the chaos in the countryside, and it is inevitable that there will be people involved in the family who are involved in it afterwards. If the person continues to stay in Jiangdong, it will be difficult to take good care of everything even with the Shen family's protection.

Jiangbei is the basic foundation of Liang Gong. He can decide what kind of merits and crimes he has made in one sentence. No matter what name he is going north, his future future is still vaguely visible.

The handling at the lower and rural areas level was determined to be guilty of 30,000 people, but there was basically no substantial punishment. Some of them were migrated and sent to Jiangbei to select a place to settle down, while the other was placed near the surrounding area of ​​the capital to compensate for their crimes.

This way of handling is more of a kind of protection than punishment. Village hatred is a topic that is more difficult to deal with than political struggle. As long as one side comes to power and defeats the other, it is considered to be over. However, if the village hatred does not drive the other side out of the other, it will always exist.

Among the village fighters, the people of Langya are the most miserable and suffer heavy losses one after another. If they are allowed to stay in Jiangdong, it can be said that they are all enemies, and life is miserable.

The Qingxu Overseas Chinese Sect is a major obstacle to Shen Zhezi, but the Qingxu Overseas Chinese have no conflict with him. These people are also pitiful people who are trapped in the general trend. Even if Shen Zhezi shows off his might, he will not fall on them.

Therefore, these emotional survivors of the diaspora were gathered and transferred to Jiangbei to settle down. The living environment was greatly damaged, and they were inevitably resentful to the Shen Wu people, but even if there was any resentment, it would not turn into any substantial revenge.

Speaking of hatred, Jie Hu brought more harm to them. He was forced to leave the countryside, who were forced to live in peace in the times, and they were not seen going north to fight against Jie Hu. As long as they were properly placed and not deliberately persecuted and suppressed, as time passed, they naturally became obedient.

There is another meaning to strictly investigate the chaos in the countryside, that is, to break the various bonds and attachments of the original rural people, especially in terms of land and households.

With the punishment of the rural chaos, Shen Zhezi resolutely implemented the policy of placing households and placing people to return to their hometowns in several counties in the capital. Even the Shen family, they would never allow a large number of people's laborers around the capital to be raised and sheltered, creating a good world-style area centered around Jiankang.

When implementing these decrees, Shen Zhezi repeatedly stated that this is just a special matter that only needs to be settled by chaos, and will never be treated as a customization to spread to counties outside the capital.

Shen Zhezi did not lie about this. At present, he actually cannot focus entirely on internal affairs. He also wants to attack local tyrants and divide the land. At present, whether it is the environmental foundation, the public opinion foundation, and the ruling structure are not mature.

The most important thing is that the policy is not sufficient talent reserves related to this, and the government orders can only be superficial and cannot be implemented. Instead, it may inspire the opposition from the villages and sects in various places, and then lead to endless civil unrest.

Do what you can do within your own ability, no matter whether you are cautious or conservative, Shen Zhezi, as a decisive maker, must be responsible for his actions.

His strategy is to build a regional center like Jiankang City to ensure that his rule and government orders can be fully implemented in these central areas and that the mobilization of resources can be effectively implemented. As for other remote counties, the status quo will be kept unchanged for the time being and continue to strengthen trade exchanges to ensure the circulation of private resources.

In Shen Zhezi's conception, such regional centers must not only be Jiankang and Jingfu in Jiangdong, but also Shouchun in Huainan, Heluo, Xubei Pengcheng, Jiangzhou Yuzhang, Jingzhou Jiangling, Xiangyang and other places, all of which must develop in this direction. First establish a basis for rule, and then connect lines with points and leads to the surface.

Only when this structure of the points, lines and surfaces of the four seas is completed can it be the basis for continuing the next step of promotion, covering the countryside and border management. As for the so-called surrounding cities in rural areas, it is absolutely impossible for the world to happen.

The construction of these orders is destined to be a long process. After the situation here in Jingjin is finalized, a pattern of echoing the river across Huainan can be achieved, and then accompanied by his father Shen Chong's previous plan to overhaul the Chi Dao. This central response can basically maintain the stability of the situation in Jiangdong, and Shen Zhezi will be able to sit in Luoyang more at ease in the future.

Regarding the attitude of the prefectures and counties towards this central cleaning, there are only Jing and Jiang that are worth paying attention to. As for the influence of Jiaoguang and other places and the central areas are still relatively weak.

Jiangzhou Governor Zhong Ya kept silent most of the time during this process, which was also because since Wang Shu died in Jiangzhou, Jiangzhou has always been in a state of suppression by Jing Yang, and has even been affiliated with Jingzhou for a long time, and even its meaning as a buffering ground has gradually weakened.

Zhong Ya was one of the candidates for Shen Zhezi to rebuild the order in Taiwan Province. So as soon as the cleaning of Jiankang City came to an end, he immediately issued an edict to summon Zhong Ya to the capital, replace He Chong as the Secretary of the Central Secretariat, and together with the father-in-law Wei Chong, he was responsible for the reconstruction of various structural matters of Taicheng.

As for the person who replaced Zhong Ya, Shen Zhezi arranged for his uncle Shen Ke. Both of them had the experience of guarding the front in chaos, which had to be said to be a kind of fate. In fact, including Chu Hu and Liu Chao, they also had this experience.

It has to be said that this experience has a huge effect on increasing political reputation. Without this qualification, even if Shen’s family monopolizes the power, Shen Zhezi will not be able to arrange his family as the Fang Bo of Dazhou directly.
