Chapter 820 Overnight at the Wang Family Mansion(1/2)
"You, Wang Xi, are only the king of Dandong. According to the law, you can only have five hundred personal guards! I didn't expect that you would have thousands of soldiers in the Wang family's mansion alone. What's the crime of hiding five hundred soldiers?"
"What is the crime of using weapons recklessly against the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?"
"You, the Langya Wang family, have made no merit to the Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty still granted you the title of king and sold cities in Goguryeo and Tubo respectively. How much honor did the Tang Dynasty treat the Erlangya Wang family?"
"You, Langya Wang, are not only treacherous, but also ungrateful!"
"Of course, Mr. Wang Xi, your biggest mistake is that you should not provoke me. Whether you are hiding soldiers or plotting rebellion, it is not my turn to conquer you.
However, why do you break the contract that was signed in advance? I have never taken the initiative to provoke others in my life! However, if someone dares to take the initiative to provoke me, I am not afraid of anyone!"
Looking at Wang Xi on the ground, Li Xuan said earnestly, with a somewhat helpless expression on his face.
Hearing this, Wang Xi just sneered, "Prince Jin, when did my Wang family provoke you? The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit. I still know the principles of this world, so you don't have to do this!"
After hearing this, Li Xuan felt that he had said what he needed to say. The entire Jiangning City, both ordinary people and aristocratic families, knew the reason why he wanted to destroy the Langya Wang family, so he did not continue to speak loudly.
And he turned around and gave instructions to the Jiangning City civil and military officials in front of him.
"He Dewu, Xie Lang, and you all report to Chang'an quickly that the Langya Wang family not only betrayed their trust and secretly violated the feudal agreement with His Majesty, but also privately raised an army of at least five hundred soldiers. They are not worthy of being the king of Dandong!
In addition, the thousands of soldiers of the Langya Wang family who used weapons recklessly against the prince are guilty of treason. Your Majesty, please issue an edict to punish and investigate all the descendants of the Langya Wang family in court!"
Hearing this, Wang Xi, He Dewu, Xie Lang and others were all startled.
Wang Xi's expression changed even more.
"Why, what do you think is wrong?" Li Xuan asked coldly.
"Please rest assured, His Highness the King of Jin. After the general returns to the government office, he will write a memorial and send it to Chang'an six hundred miles away!"
He Dewu felt a murderous aura coming over him, shuddered subconsciously, and quickly raised his hands in salute.
Seeing this, Xie Lang also quickly bowed his hands and saluted.
"Please rest assured, His Highness the King of Jin and His Highness the Crown Prince. When I return home, I will write a memorial immediately and send an urgent dispatch six hundred miles away!"
"Um!"
Seeing this, Li Xuancai nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he looked up and looked around.
Li Xuan said again: "You will send people to clean up these corpses as soon as possible. I will stay in the Wang family's mansion tonight!"
"How does this work?"
Xie Lang was startled and said quickly: "The Wang family's mansion has been so badly damaged. The King of Jin and His Highness the Crown Prince are both wealthy, how can they live here?"
He Dewu also hurriedly said: "I will also find a house for the King of Jin, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and others, and invite the King of Jin, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and all the young men to live there!"
"No need for this!"
Li Xuan shook his head, "I have already annoyed a lot of people today, so I won't trouble others!"
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to Xie Lang, He Dewu and others, but turned directly and gave orders to Zheng Fu.
"Send personal guards to guard the Wang family's mansion and set up sentries. I will be living in the Wang family's mansion for the next few days!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zheng Fu saluted solemnly.
"In addition, send people to search the Wang family's mansion carefully, especially the studies of the various managers of the Wang family, to see how many evil things the Wang family has done during this period!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Immediately, Zheng Fu began to make arrangements.
"Everyone, please go and do your own government affairs. After a day of hard work, it's time for me, the prince, and others to rest!"
Li Xuan turned around and said to Xie Lang, He Dewu and others.
"this……"
Xie Lang and all Jiangning officials were dumbfounded.
Several of the officials, in particular, were filled with anxiety.
Which aristocratic family in the world can withstand investigation?
As long as the King of Jin makes a little investigation, the trouble between these Jiangning officials and the Wang family will appear directly in front of the prince.
"By the way, please thank the governor for sending his servants to issue notices in Jiangning City and several surrounding counties. I will stay in Jiangning until the imperial court sends a censor to arrive.
During this period, all the people who have been harmed by the Wang family, or those who have been wronged, can come here to seek justice from the king and the prince!"
Li Xuan said again.
"Yes, His Highness King Jin!"
A bitter look flashed in Xie Lang's eyes, but he responded quickly.
"Go on, if anyone dares to secretly stop these people who are redressing their grievances, if they let me know, I will definitely turn their family into the same situation as the Wang family!"
"Yes, His Highness King Jin!"
Xie Lang bowed his hands again.
It was not until Li Xuan, Li Chengqian and others escorted the direct descendants of the Wang family into the Wang family that Xie Lang and a group of officials slowly raised their heads, with miserable faces on their faces.
"Why did the King of Jin and the Crown Prince suddenly come to Jiangning?"
"snort!"
He Dewu snorted, "If you are greedy and harm the people at will, you will be punished sooner or later!"
"Thank you, the governor, Yan Zhubo, and Liu Biejia. May you all be blessed. I am going to write a memorial to Chang'an!"
"And the captain..."
Xie Lang and all the officials were startled, and then they looked at He Dewu walking away and sighed softly subconsciously.
Afterwards, Xie Lang raised his head and glanced at his colleagues, and said helplessly: "Everyone, things are going to change in Jiangning. You should go home quickly and discuss it with your respective family heads.
In Jiangning, it is not just the Wang family that is harming the people and forcing them to go to their feudal country!"
"well!"
The officials thought of something, their faces changed, and they walked out with sorrow on their faces.
Half an hour later.
Two fast horses with command flags on their bodies ran out from Wang's house in Langya and headed towards Chang'an.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
Then from Jiangning, a group of people rushed out of the Duwei Mansion and rode a fast horse, heading towards Chang'an.
Then, a group of fast riders sprang out from Jiangning Governor's Mansion and headed towards Chang'an.
Jiangning City is about to change!
This is the common thought in the minds of all the aristocratic families, merchants, and people in Jiangning City.
When many people looked at the aristocratic families in Jiangning City, their eyes shone with strange light.
The atmosphere in Jiangning City was strange.
Moreover, from time to time, there would be groups of soldiers escorting the Wang family's children, each wearing brocade clothes and satin, toward Wuyi Lane.
Many common people and merchants crowded in front of the ruined gate of the Wang family. They came forward with expectant faces, looking for guards to cry out and complain about their grievances.
In the study of the head of the Wang family, Li Xuan, Li Chengqian and others each held an account book and looked through it one by one.
From time to time, personal guards came in holding a few pieces of paper and placed them in front of Li Xuan and others.
Every time they read a book, Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others looked fiercely in their eyes and cursed at Wang Xi who was standing aside.
"Beast in clothes!"
"Worse than an animal!"
"frenzied……"
Wang Xi was already devastated by this.
No matter what, it was completely over for their Wang family.
Therefore, no matter how insulted Li Xuan, Li Chengqian and others were, their expressions remained indifferent, and their expressions did not change at all.
"I originally thought that I would only kill the direct descendants of the Wang family and the heads of the major branches, and then give the remaining people appropriate mercy and pardon. I didn't expect that your Wang family could do so many unscrupulous things.
!
If I don’t kill you all, I, the king, will feel depressed!”
After reading the grievance letter sent by his personal guard, Li Xuan's eyes were full of coldness.
"hehe……"
Wang Xipi snorted with a smile, "Prince Jin just doesn't like my Wang family, why do you need to make these excuses?"
"I am very curious. My Wang family has never been against the King of Jin or even Li Tang. Why is it that the King of Jin clings to my Wang family? First he destroyed the Wang family in Jinyang, and now he comes all the way to Jiangning. I want to
