"Prince Jin, our Yuan family just wants to take a few hundred farmers to a feudal country to farm their fields. How can we be accused of treason?"

Yuan Zhen's eyes widened and he looked slightly annoyed.

"A person should have integrity. If you lose your integrity, what else can you do to convince me that in the future, as King Jianshan, you will become more powerful and will not have any evil intentions?"

Li Xuan sneered and continued: "You, a member of the Yuan family, dare to secretly oppress the people this time, and want to kidnap more than 400 people to your barren Jianshan City.

What about the future? Don’t you dare to use all kinds of dirty methods to abduct thousands of people?”

"And our Tang Dynasty is not just a family like yours, the Yuan family?

If I don’t punish your Yuan family, how can I have the face to cause trouble for other aristocratic families?

What if those powerful families were like your Yuan family, using all kinds of dirty methods to oppress the people of various states and counties?

Then how many people will our Tang Dynasty lose?

forty thousand?

Four hundred thousand?

Or, millions?..."

Yuan Zhen: "..."

Hearing this, he was dumbfounded.

Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others also looked at Li Xuan in surprise.

"Master, when we come all the way, shouldn't we smash the door of the Yuan family like the Wang family in Jinyang? Or maybe we just take advantage of this old thief here and take him back to Chang'an?"

"Exactly! Master, we are ready to break down the door!"

Yuchi Baolin said a little impatiently.

Behind him, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others could not help but look ready to make a move.

Commander Zhou and a group of Yuan family guards on the side were suddenly startled. They quickly showed their swords and spears again and stared at Li Xuan nervously.

Similarly, Yuan Zhen's expression also changed slightly, "Prince Jin, think twice, I am also the King of Jianshan and the King of Tang Dynasty after all!"

If it were anyone else, Yuan Zhen can guarantee that no one would dare to attack his Yuan family just by relying on these hundreds of bankers.

However, the person at his door now is Prince Jin.

If this lunatic really goes crazy, no one can stop him!

Moreover, even though this is where his Yuan family's ancestral home is, he still can't defeat this madman!

Thinking about it, Yuan Zhen quickly put on a smile and said, "Then what does King Jin want from my Yuan family?"

"I will compensate you!"

Li Xuan said coldly.

"compensation?"

Yuan Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and said again: "I wonder how the King of Jin wants my Yuan family to compensate?"

Li Xuan chuckled lightly, then took out his fingers and counted each item for Yuan Zhen.

"Each of these village households will be compensated for lost work, mental damage, and frightening expenses. Each person will be compensated ten thousand dollars. In addition, I brought so many people to punish your Yuan family all the way. Every person I brought with me

A personal guard also costs a lot of hard work.

In addition, your Yuan family unilaterally failed to abide by the agreement signed with the imperial court, openly oppressed the people, and wanted to take these people to Jianshan City.

This crime is extremely heinous. According to the agreement, your Yuan family needs to withdraw from a city, or pay compensation to a city!"

Yuan Zhen's eyes widened.

"Prince Jin, I, the Yuan family, agree to compensate the villagers and these personal guards. But why should we compensate the city?"

"snort!"

Li Xuan sneered, "Why? Take out the deed when you auctioned Jianshan City and the surrounding cities. Take a good look at the agreement behind the deed, and then ask me!"

Yuan Zhen smiled bitterly. He didn't need to read it, he still remembered what was written in the agreement at the end of the deed.

"But Prince Jin, is this punishment a bit too severe?"

"How can I make you and other aristocratic families feel distressed if I am not heavy? Also, it was you who signed the original deed?"

Li Xuan asked quietly.

"It is indeed my signature, but..." Yuan Zhen said helplessly.

"What? When I made you the king, you were so active. Now that you have openly violated the agreement and paid the fine, why are you so submissive? You have to pay the money even if you don't want to?

Otherwise, I will bring these 600 personal guards to have a fight with your Yuan family guards!"

After Li Xuan finished speaking, Zheng Fu and other personal guards behind him took out hand-thrown bombs and stared at the Yuan family with murderous expressions on their faces.

Yuan Zhen shuddered and said quickly: "No need for this, no need for this, everything can be done as the King of Jin said!"

"King Jianshan is still more particular about it!"

Li Xuan smiled and said, "In this case, please ask King Jianshan to hand over all these fines to me within two days!"

Hearing this, a hint of bitterness appeared on Yuan Zhen's face.

Li Xuan sighed again, looked up and looked around the Yuan family mansion, his face full of regret.

"I originally expected King Jianshan to be tougher with me and let me kill the chicken to scare the monkeys! I didn't expect King Jianshan to be so sensible, and I didn't even take action yet, but directly agreed to pay the fine."

With that said, Li Xuan turned his head again and looked at Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others behind him.

"You guys, hurry up and find out which other aristocratic family nearby is oppressing the people like this, and which family is the worst? After collecting the fine from King Jianshan the day after tomorrow and having Chenzhou Zhechong Mansion send it to Chang'an, I will

I’ll look for you soon!”

"Yes, Master!"

Hearing this, Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others responded quickly and ran out with a group of cavalry with excited faces.

Yuan Zhen's heart trembled. This madman really wanted to cause trouble for his Yuan family. Fortunately, he gave in early... After seeing Li Xuan looking over, Yuan Zhen quickly put on a smile again.

"It's still early, why don't Prince Jin go inside and take a rest?"

"Thank you, King Jianshan, for your kindness!"

Li Xuan smiled slightly and said, "The Crown Prince has been ordered by His Majesty to inspect the Tang Dynasty on Your Majesty's behalf. Now that we have arrived in Chenzhou, I will go out with the Crown Prince to inspect Chenzhou.

Now, you quickly take out the money of these more than 400 people and compensate them. I can also send them back with you. Otherwise, if someone from your Yuan family sends someone to snatch them back, I will still

It’s too troublesome to have to travel thousands of miles again to seek justice for them!”

"Your Highness the Crown Prince?"

Yuan Zhen's expression changed again, and he quickly looked at Li Chengqian, Xue Rengui and others beside Li Xuan.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian smiled softly, took a step forward, and slightly cupped his hands towards Yuan Zhen.

"Cheng Qian has met King Jianshan!"

"King Jianshan has met His Highness the Crown Prince. I didn't expect that His Highness the Crown Prince would also come to my Yuan family. It is really a great blessing for our Yuan family. I would like to invite His Highness the Crown Prince to rest for a while. I will definitely entertain His Highness!"

Yuan Zhen quickly said with a happy face.

"Thank you, King Jianshan, for your kindness!"

Li Chengqian returned a slight salute and said with a faint smile: "If Chengqian hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that even the Yuan family of Chen County, who always advocated innocence, would oppress the people like this. Please also ask King Jianshan to quickly follow what Uncle Jin Wang said

work!"

"well!"

Hearing this, Yuan Zhen sighed slightly. This time his Yuan family had been greatly embarrassed. Then he turned around and gave instructions to the housekeeper beside him.

Soon, a group of Yuan family guards came out carrying boxes of money.

Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction and looked at the more than 400 people behind him.

"You come forward quickly and receive ten guan of money each. This is the Yuan family's compensation for you all these days. You don't need to be afraid of the Yuan family's secret revenge on you afterwards.

The caravans in my palace are spread all over the Tang Dynasty. In the past few days, your home addresses and names have been recorded in my book. Every other year, there will be caravans reporting your situation to me.

.

If the Yuan family dares to secretly retaliate against you, I will certainly lead my troops to burn down the Yuan family’s ancestral home!"

"Now, after you have collected the money, you will take this opportunity to return all the money you owe the Yuan family to them. Then, after you and the Yuan family are settled, I will send you home!"

However, after Li Xuan finished speaking, all the people still stood there, not daring to take a step forward.

Even the bravest men had expressions of embarrassment on their faces.

"Your Highness, Prince Jin, I won't take any of this money, as long as it allows us to farm at home with peace of mind from now on!"

"Exactly, Your Highness King Jin, we are immoral and incompetent, and we are not worthy of receiving this money, and it is still such a large sum of money."

"His Royal Highness King Jin..."

"No need to say more! Ten guans per person is the Yuan family's compensation for waiting for you for so many days. Otherwise, they would take you to Jianshan City in Goguryeo, and you might not be able to come back!
