Chapter 81
Xiao Qi returned to his barracks and immediately summoned troops to search Wu Yongcai's mansion.
However, he didn't just plan to search Wu Yongcai's home in the capital. In order to find out who was behind this, Xiao Qi had secretly sent hundreds of scouts to inquire about the officials who were hostile to him. details.
The main reason is that there is still one Shao Qingcai who hasn't been killed yet, but he has always remembered a sentence he heard in his previous life: Only a dead enemy is truly non-threatening.
This is convenient for him to clean up Wu Yongcai's family, anyway, the emperor's order is to destroy his family.
Then of course he will not let anyone in the Wu family go.
Several manors outside the city and Wu Yongcai's hometown two hundred miles away, Xiao Qi sent [-] cavalry troops to arrest people and ransack their homes, and told them to go there to announce that the Wu family had surrendered to the enemy and betrayed the country, and the emperor wanted to destroy his family, and then ransacked them. Damn.
He himself brought a hundred cavalry and five hundred infantry to the Wu family's mansion in the capital.
When I arrived outside Wu Yongcai's house, I saw two Wu family guards hacked to death at the door. After asking, I found out that the Wu family was actually arrogantly trying to drive away the Changsheng Battalion soldiers who were blocking their door.
As a result, after being hacked and killed two people, they were too scared to show their faces at home.
Xiao Qi ordered the infantry he brought with him to rush in and arrest the people, but he did not forget to tell them not to destroy the objects inside, as the emperor had already rewarded him with those things.
When the soldiers of the Changsheng Battalion were stationed, they were told once, and they all expressed their understanding, and then rushed into the Wu Mansion in a swarm.
Soon everyone in the Wu family was tied up one by one, Xiao Qi ordered these people to return to the resident first, and wait until the interrogation was over.
After sending [-] infantry and the [-] cavalry to escort the Wu family back to the camp, Xiao Qi ordered someone to guard at the gate of the Wu residence, while he took the remaining [-] or so infantry and went in to collect them.
It doesn't matter this search, Xiao Qi was taken aback!
This Nima Wu Yongcai is a member of the Privy Council of the second grade, and this family has too much wealth!
In any warehouse, there are boxes of gold and silver, and there are several pieces of antique jade in almost every room.
Xiao Qi thought to himself that it depends on Wu Yongcai's family wealth, this guy is definitely doing bad things a lot.
So I have conquered a few big cities, and the wealth and goods I have seen are not as many as Wu Yongcai's family!
The furniture in each room is made of precious wood, Xiao Qi is almost drooling, this time Nima is considered to be rich, compared with the things I got before, it is a beggar do not have!
Xiao Qi was taking stock of what he had gained here, when a few soldiers from the Valiant Army rode over and reported to Xiao Qi, saying that the housekeeper of the Wu family over there had confessed that there were several secret rooms in this house and in the courtyard.
According to the official's account, after opening several secret rooms, in addition to finding more valuable gold and silver treasures hidden inside, they actually found Wu Yongcai's two sons who were hiding in a secret room.
No nonsense, Xiao Qi directly put people in the secret room, and began to interrogate the two people about what kind of secret room they have, and what property the Wu family has outside.
At first, the two who didn't know that their father had been chopped off wanted to hold on, but in the end, they were beaten by this gang of killers without batting an eyelid, and then they cried for their father and mother. Ask them questions.
After this review, it was discovered that the Wu family also owned a lot of property in the capital together with other officials. Xiao Qi just thought about it for a while, and felt that to be able to hook up with this guy to do business, he must be a gang.
Go to hell!They must be among the people who hacked him. When he came to the secret room where the two men told him to keep the contracts, Xiao Qi found out those contracts and ordered people to go back to the station with the contracts to rob all the properties.
Now it's better, Hangzhou is in a state of chaos. In many shops, because Wu Yongcai occupies a small position and the shopkeeper is sent by someone else, they are jumping around and yelling at Changshengying.
As a result, the soldiers who had been informed by Xiao Qi in advance were given a hammer blow when they went up, and then these people were not even allowed to carry a thread, and they were driven out.
Xiao Qi also knows that this matter will never end, and those who are reluctant to part with their property will definitely refer to themselves tomorrow morning.
But Xiao Qi is not afraid, all he needs to do is put them on the hook with traitors, whether they have also done the thing of selling information to the Jinren, and they will be scared enough not to yell anymore.
At worst, I can say that I have a contract with the Wu family, and at worst I will run the business with you. At that time, I will send a few soldiers with fierce looks and scars on their faces to stand at the door.
Anyway, I don't plan to make money with you, you don't have any underpants you're not afraid of losing, so we're just wasting our time.
The result was beyond his expectation. In the early morning of the next day, only two officials from a dozen or so properties participated in his robbing of their properties.
Xiao Qi had been prepared for a long time, when Zhao Shen asked him what was going on, this guy took out a stack of contracts, found out the two copies mentioned by the two and handed them over to Zhongguan, asking him to show it to Zhao Shen.
Then Xiao Qi pretended to be heartbroken and said: "Your Majesty, I thought that traitor Wu Yongcai was just one person, but it turned out that he had a party, and these two people were so close to that traitor. Please order a strict investigation!"
Those two originally thought that once they sued Xiao Qi, the others would definitely stand up and sue this guy.
Who knows that those people would rather give up those properties than sue with them.
Now it's all right, I thought I could hit Xiao Qi's arrogance, but in the end Xiao Qi threw a handful of yellow mud into his crotch!
Zhao Shen actually knew on the first day that Xiao Qi was making a big fuss in the capital, and he was a little unhappy. He thought to himself, why are you, a disciple of an expert, so greedy for money?
Hearing what Xiao Qi said, Zhao Shen also felt that it made sense, only people with a very good relationship would do business in partnership, these two people are so good with that Wu Yongcai, could it be that they don't know anything about what Wu Yongcai did?
But he didn't dare to hand over this matter to Xiao Qi, he was really worried that if this guy found any contracts from these people's homes, what would happen if all the officials came to sue tomorrow.
The matter had to be handed over to Yu Yunwen, the new Prime Minister of the Left, and asked him to lead the Dali Temple and the Criminal Ministry to thoroughly investigate the matter.
The few ministers who had been in series last night and had a dumb deal last night secretly wiped off a cold sweat when they saw the result, and said in their hearts that it was fortunate that everyone thought this Xiao was a mad dog, and they negotiated a good fortune to eliminate the disaster.
These two people who are reluctant to spend money are absolutely unlucky. As long as they get mixed up with collaborators and traitors, let alone continue to be officials, whether they can save their lives is still a matter of debate.
Zhao Shen saw that no one was talking about anything anymore, and was about to say that he would withdraw from the court, but Xiao Qi stood up again.
After leaving work, Xiao Qi bowed to Zhao Shen who was sitting above:
"Your Majesty, I searched Wu Yongcai's house yesterday and found that this person's family has a lot of floating wealth, and I have divided it into more than two thousand shares.
I implore your majesty to send hundreds of soldiers to send this money to the homes of the more than 2000 soldiers who died in the battle defending Chuzhou City. "
After hearing this, Zhao Shen said in his heart: It's wrong to blame the Marquis of Zhenbei, he is going to get compensation for those soldiers in Chuzhou City who shouldn't have died in battle!
Immediately passed an order to Xiao Qi to send [-] soldiers to escort these goods to the families of the fallen soldiers.
Seeing that Zhao Shen agreed, Xiao Qi hit the iron while the iron was hot, and asked the emperor for the confiscated fields and farms, and he planned to resettle those soldiers who were disabled on the battlefield and had no relatives at home, hoping the emperor would grant him permission.
Xiao Qi's small plan is very smart, the emperor only said to copy Wu Yongcai's property to him, and those farms and fields will be taken back to the royal family in the future, if not now, there will be no chance in the future.
When Zhao Shengang became emperor, he wanted to revive the prestige of the Great Song Dynasty, and when he was ambitious, he immediately agreed to Xiao Qi's request, and also specially approved the industries that accommodate disabled soldiers, whether in the city or outside the city, all exempted from tax endowed.
Xiao Qi quickly saluted, thanked the emperor for the soldiers' favor, and assured the emperor that with such a good emperor, those soldiers would definitely disregard life and death on the battlefield, fight bravely to kill the enemy, and never let the Jin people be rampant again.
Zhao Shen was very satisfied with what he heard. He always thought that his army of the Song Dynasty would be able to fight against the Jin soldiers, even if they couldn't win steadily, as long as they no longer feared the Jin soldiers and dared to fight them desperately.
After the court broke up, Xiao Qi immediately rushed back to the military camp, ordered 100 cavalry and [-] infantry, hired more than [-] carts, and together with the carts they brought, they pulled them from the shops and farms and searched them. The money went out of the city.
When I was writing the last book, I encountered people who picked on me and said some uncomfortable things.Now that I saw it again, I couldn't help asking the old author if I really wrote it so that people can't stand it.The old author couldn't help laughing after hearing this. He told me that real readers leave immediately when they see a book they don't like and are busy looking for a book they like. They don't have time to say weird things here.Those who say strange things are all authors who write their own books and no one reads them. They go to newcomers to find their presence. Let me just ignore them and delete them.The rookie thought for a moment and decided not to delete it. Even if a few real readers were lost due to their troubles, it would still be considered a merit if they could save a severe depression patient!
