559 Butcher Li Yu

The huge Jinling opened its doors to welcome the new conquerors, just like when Liezu Li Bing ascended the throne and became emperor thirty years ago, the flowers bloomed and faded, and the tides rose and fell. Among the ten countries, the largest and the strongest, and the only one who could compete with the Central Plains was finished and disappeared.

Although their emperor was still in Yangzhou and made his last attempt for this country, the senior officials, aristocratic families, great clans, merchants, and even scholars of the Southern Tang collectively abandoned the country and turned to the new master.

There was no trace of sadness or nostalgia from their smiling faces.

Whether it is the change of dynasty or the destruction of the country or the destruction of the family, it is just a sign on the top of the city!

Ye Hua rode on the horse, and he suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

"Mr. Han, isn't it a bit too fast?"

Han Xizai frowned, his face unchanged, and his voice was a little hoarse, "The Marquis saw the late emperor destroying the Han Dynasty with his own eyes, isn't that easier?"

"yes!"

Ye Hua thoughtfully, in order to destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty, he made a plan for the southern expedition since Guo Wei. He spent so much effort to advance in two groups. Logically speaking, it would be rare to be able to last until this time.

"Mr. Han, do you think the Great Zhou Dynasty will have such a day?" Ye Hua seemed to ask casually.

Han Xizai was stunned for a moment, then shook his head apart.

"No, absolutely not!" Han Xizai said with confidence: "The Great Zhou promotes equal land and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. All the people in the world are devoted to the court. As long as the results of equal land are still there, no one can subvert the Great Zhou!"

Ye Hua smiled. His and Han Xizai's views were so consistent!

That's right, as long as the equals are still there, the foundation of the empire will be stable.

Li Hongji's mistake was that he put his foundation on the gentry and bureaucrats, thinking that they could be loyal to the empire and sprinkle all their passion. However, these people were fence-bearing plants and fell with the wind, and they didn't even have one-tenth of the reliability of ordinary people.

Ye Huaxin happily entered Jinling surrounded by a group of surrendered ministers.

Feng Yanji and Song Qiqiu tried their best to please Ye Hua. They swept the streets clean, the trees on both sides were decorated with lights, and even wrapped the trunks with silk.

Create a feeling of blooming flowers.

They also found many people, and knelt down on both sides of the street, and there were crowds of people. When Ye Hua came over, someone took the lead in shouting to welcome the king's army, and then the people followed suit.

It looks like a tsunami, but it always has a little bit of taste.

Fu Zhaoxin rode his horse to Ye Hua, glared at the old guys fiercely, and then said to Ye Hua: "Marty, they hired people. After calling, they can get a pound of rice and a hanging of money!"

No wonder!

Ye Hua shook his head. The old guys were quite embarrassed, but fortunately they no longer knew what their shame was.

Feng Yanji hurriedly said: "The people in the city are suffering because Li Hongji is cruel and unkind, and exploited them from all means. Now that the king's army has entered the city, Jinling has been completely renewed, opening the warehouse and releasing grain, and letting them bathe in the emperor's grace is also the only way."

What a clever tongue!

Ye Hua was too lazy to talk nonsense, just smiled. He brought his men to the outside of the Jinling Palace and looked at the majestic palace. Someone was already waiting at the gate of the palace and wanted to open the gate and ask Ye Hua to come in.

"Don't!"

Ye Hua waved his hand, "No matter whether it is true or false, it is a palace. As subjects, it is better not to go in. Wait for the emperor's army to come and ask the emperor to enter the palace first!"

Ye Hua turned around and asked Yang Ye to send someone to seal the palace of Southern Tang.

Feng Yanji and his group flattered again, praising Ye Hua for being loyal and pillar of the country.

Ye Hua didn't want to listen too much. The Southern Tang inherited the Tang system and also set up a political affairs hall. Ye Hua led everyone to the political affairs hall, and he sat in the middle.

Fu Zhaoxin and Yang Ye were like two door gods, standing behind Ye Hua.

Looking further down, they suddenly had the urge to laugh. This thing was so black and humorous!

To the east, Han Xizai was the leader, and then Xu Xuan. Below Xu Xuan, there were Pan Chengyou who had just arrived, Zheng Yanhua, Sun Deming, and Zhu Lingyun!

To the west are Feng Yanji, Song Qiqiu, Sun Sheng, Wei Cen, and Sun Chongjun!

Grandma's, all of them are old acquaintances!

If Ye Hua and the other two were taken away, this would be the Nan Tang Dynasty meeting!

People on both sides looked at each other, some were embarrassed, some were angry, some were ashamed, and some were helpless.

Ye Hua coughed gently, breaking the silence.

"All the masters are old friends, so I don't need to introduce them. But, I am so lively. I'll invite two friends to come over and we all meet each other!"

Ye Hua winked at Fu Zhaoxun, and soon someone helped Chen Qiao to come up.

It turned out that after Feng Yanji took him down, Chen Qiao was thrown into the dark prison. He was both ashamed and annoyed, and had already had ambitions to die, but he did not expect that when Ye Hua entered the city, he directly asked someone to lift him out.

He also washed and dressed up, changed into new clothes, and brought them to the Political Affairs Hall.

Chen Qiao was a little confused, but when he saw Feng Yanji and others, he was so furious!

"Shameless!"

He was swaying and was about to rush up and hit someone.

Feng Yanji's face sank and shouted angrily: "Chen Qiao, the Southern Tang Dynasty has destroyed its country, and we have surrendered to the Great Zhou. I would like to advise you to be aware of the current affairs and not be shameless!"

"ah!"

Chen Qiao was shocked!

"The country is destroyed, it is really destroyed!"

He suddenly looked crazy and burst into tears, "Since the country is destroyed, why am I still alive?" He suddenly lifted up his robe, covered his face, and ran to the pillar and ran over.

Chen Qiao wanted to seek death, but unexpectedly, someone hugged him hard.

"Mr. Chen, you can't die!"

Chen Qiao was very familiar with the voice. He was in a hurry and put down his robe, revealing his face!

"It's the Sixth Prince!"

Although I was tanned a lot and lost one front teeth, my two pupils could not be faked!

Chen Qiao grabbed Li Yu's arm and shook it hard!

"Oh, Your Highness, Your Highness! Are you still alive?"

Li Yu smiled, "What are you talking about? I'm living a pretty good life! Mr. Chen, you should live well. If you even die, some people would be so happy!"

As he said that, Li Yu glanced at Feng Yanji and others.

All these old guys recognized him, it was him!

After only a few years of hard work, how did this kid's eyes become so sharp? There was an indescribable smell in his expression. How could he describe it? Li Yu, who used to be a sheep, a white rabbit, had talent and nothing to be afraid of and worried about.

But now Li Yu is like a wolf and a sharp sword. Although he deliberately restrains himself, he still cannot hide his sharpness. He is like two people!

Just a glance made them frightened, and something seemed wrong!

Li Yu saved Chen Qiao and saluted Ye Hua.

"The official is here to pay homage to the marquis."

"You're welcome. You did a good job this time. It's your credit for being able to have so much salt supply."

Li Yu said: "I dare not take credit. The officials just killed all the salt merchants. Without them exploiting them, I promised that the salt workers would have enough wages. They kept producing them day and night, so they naturally had endless salt. This salt comes from the sea water, and is not a rare thing, and they really cannot be praised by the marquis."

Ye Hua smiled and said, "How many salt merchants have you killed?"

"It's just over a hundred!" Li Yu said: "There are many big salt merchants in Yangzhou. When His Majesty breaks Yangzhou, he will be able to kill him!"

When Li Yu said this, his expression was calm, just like a family conversation and a dragon gate formation.

But in the ears of Feng Yanji and others, it was no less than a thunderous sound!

The same thought arose in everyone's mind: Who gave him the courage?

Ye Hua didn't care and said with a smile: "The salt merchants destroy the salt law, so they should naturally kill them! What if someone destroys the national law?"

"It should be killed the same!"

Li Yu did not hesitate at all, "With Vajra's eyes, even in Buddhism, how can we indulge treacherous villains to harm the court? If these rats do not kill, right and wrong will be reversed, black and white will be confused, virtuous ministers will avoid the world, and slanderous parties will be rampant, and the world will be not far from the destruction of the country! Therefore, the emperor must not kill people!"

The most surprising person about Li Yu's speech was Chen Qiao. I remember that Chen Qiao was a lecturer for Li Yu and was responsible for explaining the Spring and Autumn Period. Chen Qiao still remembered that Li Yu was sad and sentimental. Not to mention killing people, even ants were reluctant to crush them to death, and they ran to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha at all times. That was so pious!

Once upon a time, he actually became a different person!

Become a lot like his elder brother!

wrong!

It's just like a mistake!

Li Hongji is also cruel enough. He can kill his father and seize power, kill his uncle and brothers without hesitation, and sacrifice millions of people without hesitation.

But he was indulging in scholars, just like Feng Yanji and Song Qiqiu. Even though he had evil, Li Hongji was just dismissed from office. There were also those merchants, Li Hongji often scolded them and was so angry that he didn't kill many of them in the end.

On the contrary, Li Yu slaughtered more than a hundred salt merchants without blinking. This courage is really extraordinary!

Chen Qiao even felt that if he had been allowed to inherit the throne, the Tang Dynasty might not have fallen to this point!

As he was thinking about random things, Ye Hua asked again: "Jinling is very chaotic at the moment. What do you think should be dealt with?"

Li Yu immediately said: "The problem in Jinling is that there are too many refugees. The population of one million is 200,000 to 300,000 are refugees who flock to the countryside. Some of them do odd jobs, while others just idle and cause trouble everywhere. The officials thought that only by implementing equal land, giving them land as soon as possible, and letting them return to their hometown to farm, the problem of Jinling will be solved!"

"good!"

Ye Hua thought, "The Jiangnan has a large population and dense land. What if there is not enough land to be distributed to the people?"

"kill!"
