Chapter 364 This is an iron case(1/2)

It is not a good thing to follow a general who is too greedy.

And history is always surprisingly similar.

Every time at the beginning of the founding of a country, the officials of a dynasty were the most honest.

Zhang Buyi said five hundred kilograms of gold. What is the concept?

Anyway, most people would never dare to think about it.

"Only five hundred catties?" Wang Buxu squinted his eyes and looked at Zhang Buyi with some disgust.

"Hehe, five hundred pounds is a lot!" Zhang Buyi smiled awkwardly.

I thought I was bold enough, but in the end Wang Buxuan thought he didn't open his mouth wide enough.

But even if you think about it with your buttocks, you still know the result.

"Anyway, it's impossible to give them cattle, sheep, and horses. We can exchange five hundred kilograms of gold for thousands of them, and that's about it!" Zhang Buyi said.

He thought of this yesterday, so he didn't dare to ask for too much.

Although there are enough.

Besides, didn’t Zhang Buyi tell Yalu too?

Your Majesty will definitely give us face, but I can't decide how much.

Look, return the person to you. Isn’t this the most valuable thing?

Zhang Buyi has already thought of the scene of Yalu yelling curses behind his back.

Human beings are indeed the most valuable nowadays, but on the grassland, cattle, sheep, and horses are the most valuable.

Among the so-called Yuezhi prisoners, there were less than a thousand real warriors, and the rest were all old, young, women, and children.

To put it bluntly, the Yuezhi King wished that those old people had died, which happened to save food rations. Now that he is fine, he spent a lot of money to replace the people he considered a burden.

"He also cheated my 50,000 war horses. Is that more than 500 kilograms?" Wang Buxian said angrily.

Wang Buxuan was still worried about the incident where his war horse was tricked last time, and he kept thinking about it.

During the border transactions, he always told Han Xin to trick them if he got the chance.

Of course, as a big Han country, you still need face.

Even if it is a trap, it is to lower the other party's prices and raise your own prices, using the least things in exchange for the most things.

The price of grain and salt at the border is already more than five times higher than at home.

But what I didn't expect was that the Yuezhi people still came to exchange for it, and they were very happy.

This made Han Xin call his mother a ghost.

"Then what? How about I change my words before he delivers the gold?" Zhang Buyi scratched his head.

"Forget it, he is still the Marquis of Xingyang after all, my general of the Imperial Guard. His words don't mean what he says. If this spreads out, I won't lose my face. I'll just lose some money..." Wang Buxu shook his head, and then remembered

He asked about another thing, and then asked: "I heard that the Yuezhi people plan to participate in the construction of Luoyang?"

"Well, there is such a thing. I heard that Yalu went to the Ministry of Industry to register, but the details are not clear." Zhang Buyi kept nodding.

As a general of the Imperial Guard, he is quite majestic.

But in fact……

He is the little gossip expert next to the emperor.

We need to keep collecting some things and then tell the emperor.

And Wang Buxu also liked to listen to these gossips the most, so he asked Zhang Buyi to do this. Although it conflicted with the scouts to a large extent, he could do his best to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the information.

"Go and check, how could you miss such a good opportunity!" Wang Buxu ordered directly.

Still in the corner, as the most knowledgeable insider in the Han Empire, Sima Xin was in a bit of trouble at this moment.

How to write this special girl?

The emperor was discussing with the general of the Imperial Guard in the meeting hall how to trick the Yuezhi?

Or is it written that the general of the Imperial Guard cheated the Yuezhi of five hundred kilograms of gold, and the emperor was very dissatisfied and looked for another opportunity to cheat him again?

Not writing is the best way.

But if you don’t write it, a complete chain of evidence will not exist.

As Taishi Ling, Wang Buxu's requirement for him is that all records must have cause and effect, and form a complete chain of evidence, so that when future generations see these, they can clearly see the whole story.

, it’s okay, don’t be a bitch and make random guesses.

Sima Xin racked his brains to think of how to record this story.

It was almost when my head was about to burst that I finally thought of how to write it.

'The Yuezhi sent Lu privately to ask the Marquis of Xingyang, willing to give five hundred catties of gold to thank the Han army for saving his people from the fire and water. The emperor was overjoyed and agreed to the Yuezhi's participation in the construction of Luoyang...'

After writing this paragraph, Sima Xin nodded with satisfaction.

Look, although the meaning has changed, the result has not.

How could a man with such a glorious sage do such dirty things?

Your Majesty only agreed to allow you to participate in the great cause of expanding Luoyang because of your respect for humanity. So, Yuezhi people, please be grateful...

Just as Zhang Buyi left, the scout governor Peng Yue also stood in front of the meeting hall.

Peng Yue's appearance rate has been slightly lower recently, mainly because he has a big case to investigate.

Now that the evidence is basically conclusive and the truth has come to light, it’s time to brush up on the existence.

After saying hello to Zhang Buyi, the two of them exchanged a few words and then went about their own business.

"Your Majesty, the rebellion of Marquis Yan has been found out!" Peng Yue said directly.

Sima Xin in the corner cheered up instantly.

The rebellion of Marquis Yan was the biggest event since the founding of the Han Dynasty, and he had no choice but to take it seriously.

"Oh? How about it?" Wang Buxian also became interested.

If there is no strong-willed person to stand up, even the founding monarch cannot kill randomly if he wants to establish his authority.

Therefore, Wang Buxian is still very concerned about the outcome of this matter.

"The evidence for Yan Hou's rebellion is not enough, but the evidence for Zang Cha's rebellion is conclusive," Peng Yue said.

"Oh? This Zangcha belongs to the old tribe of Marquis Yan, and all the lands of Yan are under his care. How can we be sure that this is not what Marquis Yan meant?" Wang Buxu asked.

Throughout the ages, those who rebelled against the old tribe, usually the big bosses, would follow the unlucky ones.

Although Wang Buxian is not that cruel, this kind of thing actually has nothing to do with people.

Sometimes, for some things, it’s not about whether you can do it or not, but whether you should do it and whether it makes sense after doing it!

"The Marquis of Yan did previously order Zang Cha to deliver money and grain to Luoyang. The amount was consistent with the money and grain leaving Yan. However, soon after leaving the city, the other money and grain were separated and went directly to the military camp located fifty miles west of Jixian County. I will take this place

The location and configuration of the military camp were told to Shangshu Guan. Shangshu Guan told his ministers that there was no such camp in the records filed by the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War had not received a report from the front line on the setting up of the camp here. With this batch of money and food, it was basically certain that

This is a military camp set up by Zang Cha privately, and all the money and food used are the property of Marquis Yan."

Peng Yue said blatantly.

At this point, the case can basically be closed.

It's your Marquis Yan's money and food that is used, so you Marquis Yan is the direct leader, so no one can find fault in your punishment.

The only doubt is, does Yan Hou know about this matter?

Did he do it on purpose?

Wang Buxu also frowned slightly.

This is a difficult decision. Is it to leave an image of strict rule of law for the Han Dynasty?

Or should we simply kill the chicken to scare the monkey?

Compared with Yanhou Han Guang, Qihou Tiandan was the most powerful.

Although the entire Tian family came to Luoyang, they still had a lot of love in the old land of Qi.

In addition, Wang Buxing gave some preferential treatment when he surrendered.

Many things would be unimaginable in later generations, and even an ordinary person would see that this is absolutely unreasonable.

But now, it has really happened.

Although the Han Dynasty was able to control the old lands of Yan and Qi, in fact, Han Guang and Tian Dan still had a great say in these two places.

As long as two of them go back and say, "I want to rebel," not to mention everyone will respond. At least three or four of the ten people will respond. It won't be a problem.

"Convict Han Guang of treason!" After a long time, Wang Buxu finally made this decision.

It's cruel, but also very realistic.

All the evidence supports his doing so.
