Chapter 1,091 The possibility of saving the Dragon King of the East China Sea(1/2)
Outside Chang'an City.
Under the escort of elite Zhechong Mansion, hundreds of inner guards returned with the murderer and the evidence of the crime.
Li Yan looked at the alchemy furnace utensils, Yundan, which had not yet flowed into the market, and the prisoners in the prison car, and was very satisfied.
The prisoner who was pushing in the front attracted his attention: "That is Dou Decheng's confidant, Haonu Hao Da?"
He is not big, but he is short and fat, and has a bit of rich face.
Not to mention, it is a bit like a general's success and thousands of bones are woven.
At this time, he was covered in blood, his eyes were still fierce and unruly, and he remained silent. He obviously knew that he would die.
Di Renjie rode his horse and followed: "Liulang, this thief is fierce. Seeing that the situation is not good, he wants to set fire in the yard to create chaos. Fortunately, Peng Wuwei took action to capture him alive!"
Li Yan nodded: "You have all made great contributions. Is it provided by Dou Jing when Hao Da and others?"
Di Renjie said: "Dou Jiyi wants to make the merits worthy of his crime."
Li Yan shook his head: "You can discuss anything else. Selling poison pills will cause great crimes and endless disasters. You must never let it go!"
Di Renjie nodded: "That's true. I didn't agree to him at that time. If you take a wrong step, you will never be able to get rid of it..."
2.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.
Dou Jing has not been removed from office yet, but the outcome is not to be said.
He had nothing to do with this matter, but later Dou De got out and pulled his son into a drug deal, which led him on the road of no return.
Not only Dou Decheng and Dou Jing and his son, but all their lineages were completed.
The lightest thing is that he ends up living in Lingnan, and his life is worse than death.
Li Yan asked again: "Where is the account book?"
Di Renjie said: "The account books have been sealed in public and are in that box."
Li Yan followed his gaze.
Just next to the account book, Doulu Qinwang and five other Jiyi envoys were guarding each other, with their eyes very alert, for fear that others would look through the things in the box.
Li Yan said: "It's handled well."
He originally planned to use the account book to take down Dou Decheng, but later he received Ming Chongyan's effect.
A batch of new elixirs pretended to flow into the market, which caused the drug connections built by the drug lord to disappear and were directly retaliated.
But in this way, these books have become hot things.
Because all of them are the dark history of people taking medicine.
Those who are addicted to medication will no longer be able to take Yundan, and either quit drug addiction or die in pain.
However, the form of the pill is not as strong as that of opium, and it is more toxic. In addition, most of these people taking the pill are elderly patients, and their health is poor, so it is almost unrealistic to want to quit drugs.
In other words, they are already dead. If the account books are exposed, they will have to be in danger of being safe in the later years, and the family will not be able to fight to the death.
So Di Renjie handled the best, and he directly sealed it in front of everyone and handed it over to the saint.
Let Li Zhi deal with it!
Soon, a long team arrived at the Qingxiao Gate of the Daming Palace, but An Yuanshou showed up and sent the imperial guards to replace the Zhechong Mansion to escort them and took them to Xuanwu Gate.
Although the name is the same, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwu Gate Incident in Tai Chi Palace. This is the Daming Palace, not a place.
However, in history, there were also Jinglong Coups and Tanglong Coups here.
The former is Li Xian's crown prince Li Chongjun, who killed Wu Sansi and his son, and rushed into the palace all the way.
The latter is the scene where Li Longji led the imperial guards to kill Empress Wei and Princess Anle.
But this time, after entering the urn city, everyone found that there was a feather-pawn umbrella tower standing on the city wall.
The emperor and empress came here in person.
Everyone saluted: "Greetings to Your Majesty, Queen!"
The eunuch came down: "Your Majesty announced Li Jiyi to go up."
Li Yan got upstairs and came to Li Zhi and Wu.
It's interesting to say that it's the first time he's seen what Li Zhi looks like from a close distance.
In the past, I could only see figures across the tent. I stood behind the back during the meeting, but I could not lose my manners in front of the palace.
I met at this time, and I was just a middle-aged man with slightly thin hair and very old-fashioned.
Empress Wu is four years older than Li Zhi, and she is already forty-seven this year, but she looks like she is less than forty.
Li Zhi was only forty-three, but he looked over fifty. No matter how powerful the power was, it would be useless to survive his wife.
However, although the saint's face was old and in good spirits, he spoke, "Yuan Fang, is the poisonous pill all here?"
Li Yan knew that he was intentionally distinguishing himself from the Wuyun Pill, and nodded, "There are more than a thousand boxes of poison pills from the inner guard."
Li Zhi hated him and said: "Gathering and destroying, such harmful things must not be left behind!"
Li Yan immediately said: "Yes!"
Yun Dan's control of court officials was a powerful impact on the imperial power. Seeing that this thing was about to be destroyed, Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Hao Da and other drug traffickers, and said coldly: "All of them are sentenced to death, and the three tribes of the barbarians!"
The criminal law of the Tang Dynasty was actually not as severe as later generations imagined. Even if it was a rebellion that was unforgivable, it was just a beheading of the main offender, the father and son of the main offender were hanged, and relatives within the three tribes confiscated their property and exiled them.
Of course, the emperor could increase or decrease the criminal law at will. Since Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, basically did not follow the criminal law. There are many examples of Yang Jian, who was suspicious and beat the ministers to death in the dynasty.
Yang Guang would not say that Li Yuan was extremely serious about his personal relationship. No matter how serious the minister he liked committed, he could be forgiven as long as it was not a treason, and he would also regard the law of punishment as nothing.
In comparison, Li Shimin is the best for the past five emperors, and Li Zhi can rank second in all of them.
Of course, their trampling on criminal law, all of which were not as good as the cruel era of officials started by Wu Zetian...
Now Li Zhi’s disposal of these drug traffickers is more serious than the unforgivable crime, and obviously he needs to use the extreme punishment to deter them.
After the emperor said that the population was rolling. After Li Zhi handled the pills and the prisoners, he finally asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Where is the account book?"
Li Yan said: "It's also in the evidence, and that car is where the account book is."
Li Zhi had a bad look and could not see clearly. Empress Wu had noticed Dou Lu Qinwang and others standing around the car and whispered a few words.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Zhi's eyes flashed: "How many people have seen the account book?"
Li Yan said: "No one has seen it, but from the account list, it can be confirmed that it is the transaction of Poison Pills."
Li Zhi was silent for a moment, and then said, "Then you don't need to open it, just burn it on the spot!"
Leave it in your hands as a deterrent.
If a fire burns, it will pacify the gentry.
In the past, Li Zhi would probably stay. After all, this was not done by him. The handle was left unrestricted. Who told you to believe Dou Zhe?
But when thinking about the rumor, if the Gaomen gentry was resentful and secretly pushed, it would be a loss to the end.
Therefore, Li Zhi decisively burned the account book, and the matter was exposed and no more mentioned.
Sure enough, after receiving the order, Doulu Qinwang and others were overjoyed, bowed together, and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is wise!!"
They performed very quickly. They opened the box, took out the account book, flipped it a little, and after confirming it, the torch was thrown up.
Under the black smoke, the dark history of family taking drugs disappeared.
At the same time, the inner guard who received the order also brought the Yundan in the imperial city and piled up high in the middle.
Seeing that everyone wanted to burn like this, Li Yan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, if you burn it directly, you may be poisonous to smoke. If you put the poison pill in the elixir furnace, you should melt it..."
He thought of Lin Zexu's Humen detonation of cigarettes.
Many people think that smoking is for burning, but it is not.
Because if the opium is mixed with tung oil, not only will the smoke produced be poisonous, but the remaining ointment will also seep into the ground.
After the officers and soldiers left, those crazy addicts would definitely come to dig the local soil and extract two or three out of ten opium from the soil.
Therefore, Lin Zexu used the "sea water infiltration method".
Build a large pool by the beach, lay stones at the bottom of the pool, nail boards around it to prevent opium from leaking, and dig a ditch.
Pour the salt water from the ditch into the pond, then cut the opium into four petals, put it in and soak for a period of time, and then put it in lime.
Lime boils when it encounters water and the opium dissolves.
During the whole process, soldiers stood by the pool and needed to use a wooden rake to stir in the pool, making sure that the opium was completely dissolved into the water.
Since it is on the beach, when the tide is low, send the pool water into the ocean and wash the bottom of the pool with clean water so that there will be no drops left.
Chang'an is not by the sea, and without that condition, these elixirs cannot be poured into the water at will.
Fortunately, compared with the massive opium in the late Qing Dynasty, the number here is too small, and it is in the form of elixirs, so there are actually many ways to destroy it.
Li Yan was cautious, but Li Zhi didn't dare to neglect after hearing this, and immediately said: "Go and call Ming Chongyan, open the furnace and burn the elixir!"
Before half an hour came, Ming Chongyan rushed over.
The inner guard took out the cloud pill, counted the number, and looked at the pills, which were thrown into the pill furnace by Ming Chongyan, and many people's eyes flashed.
To be continued...
