Li Xuan snorted coldly, "It really is a bunch of pickpockets!"

Then, he turned his head to look at the group of farmers.

"Don't be afraid, I will rest in Qingzhou for a day, and I will send you home tomorrow!"

"Thank you, Your Highness King Jin!"

All the farmers were overjoyed.

As for the steward of the Yuan family, his eyes narrowed and his expression changed rapidly.

Afterwards, Li Xuan asked someone to find the shipyard's steward, and arranged a large factory building for these villagers, and guarded it by personal guards, so that they could make do for the night.

After returning to Qingzhou City, Li Xuan asked Cheng Chusi and Li Chongyi to find the caravan manager in Qingzhou City.

Let these stewards once again send people to the various kingdoms of Goguryeo to sell the goods once again.

The most important goal is to find out exactly how many aristocratic families went to Goguryeo to deceive the people in the various vassal states of Goguryeo, and how many people were deceived in total.

In the major cities of Goguryeo, there are tea shops of caravans, as well as caravans that often come and go. They are very familiar with the situation of the various kingdoms of Goguryeo.

Therefore, the caravan is the most convenient and quick way to inquire about these news, without attracting attention.

At the same time, after knowing the behavior of the Yuan family, Li Yuan just sighed in disappointment, without much surprise or anger.

Early the next morning.

Li Xuan took Li Chengqian and others to send the people who were rescued yesterday to Chen County.

After reaching Luoyang all the way, Li Yuan continued to go to Chang'an under the protection of his own personal guards.

But Li Xuan took Li Chengqian, and the more than 400 common people, Yuan's family stewards, and started to go south to Chenzhou.

The Yuan family's ancestral house in Chenjun is in Yangxia, Chenzhou.

The Yuan family in Chen Jun has a prominent family background and is one of the top families.

However, the Yuan family of Chen Jun has always advocated purity and emptiness, never vying for power, nor wantonly amassing money, and their reputation is not obvious.Therefore, in the Han Dynasty, people only knew the Yuan family in Runan, but not the Yuan family in Chenjun.

However, during the Han Dynasty, the Yuan family in Chenjun was not much weaker than the Yuan family in Runan.

Moreover, from the Han Dynasty to the present, for nearly 600 years, the Yuan family of Chenjun has always had children serving as officials in the court.And the Yuan family in Runan has long since declined.

Unexpectedly, this kind of aristocratic family can do such a dirty thing for the sake of a mere feudal country!

A group of people came directly to the Yuan family's ancestral house in Yangxia.

As one of the top aristocratic families in the world, the Yuan family's ancestral house is not too big.

However, on the two streets around the ancestral house, there are tall mansions dozens of times larger than the Yuan family's ancestral house.

Inside, all the branches of the Yuan family who are in power live.

Li Xuan and others are more than 600 people, all of them are steel swords and armor!

There are more than 400 common people and more than 100 guards of the Yuan family.

As soon as thousands of people arrived in front of the gate of the Yuan family's ancestral house, a guard of thousands of people poured out from all around, holding swords and spears, looking at Li Xuan and the others warily.

"Who are you waiting for?"

"Commander Zhou, you are a villain, Lin Nanshan!"

Lin Nanshan, the steward of the Yuan family who was escorted all the way by Li Xuan, ran out quickly and said anxiously.

"Steward Lin?"

Commander Zhou is naturally familiar with the stewards of the outer courtyard next to the Patriarch.

Moreover, knowing the mission of the steward of the outer court, he looked up subconsciously, and recognized the hundred subordinates following Lin Nanshan, so he couldn't help being a little surprised.

"Boss Lin, didn't you bring this kind of farmer to Jianshan? Why did you come back?"

Then, feeling something was wrong, he looked at Li Xuan and the others nervously.

"Who are these gentlemen?"

"Commander Zhou, this is His Royal Highness Prince Jin!"

Lin Nanshan quickly said, "I wonder if the Patriarch is here?"

"His Royal Highness King Jin?"

Commander Zhou looked shocked.

"The villain sees His Royal Highness King Jin. I don't know that King Jin is coming. My Patriarch is resting in the house. Please wait a moment for His Royal Highness Jin. The villain will go in and report to my Patriarch!"

After speaking, Commander Zhou hurriedly ran to the back room.

And all the guards of the Yuan family around them also slowly put away their swords and spears, and they looked at Li Xuan with different expressions.

In less than a moment.

Commander Zhou hurried out again.

The entire gate of the house is completely open.

Inside, an old man in plain clothes came out anxiously with a pair of golden glasses.

Seeing Li Xuan in the middle of a group of people, he directly bowed his hands in salute.

"I've seen His Royal Highness Jin, but I didn't know that His Royal Highness came from afar, and if he was lost, please don't blame him, please don't blame him!"

"Humph!"

Li Xuan's face immediately sank, "Yuan Zhen, do you still remember the first agreement between your majesty and you when your family auctioned off the cities of the small barbarians around you?"

"This?"

Yuan Zhen's face froze.

On the side, Commander Zhou and all the guards couldn't help but feel nervous. It seems that His Royal Highness Prince Jin is here to find trouble!

"I don't know where the Yuan family offended His Royal Highness Jin Wang, and I ask Jin Wang to be lenient for a while, and my Yuan family will definitely apologize!"

After Yuan Zhen was stunned for a moment, he smiled again.

"It's better to make it clear on the outside. You have just been named King of Jianshan, and you have already dared to tear up the agreement and disobey His Majesty's edict. This king is really worried that if you enter your Yuan's house so recklessly, you will be assassinated by your Yuan's family." inside!"

Li Xuan sneered.

"Prince Jin is serious. Although the old man has been sealed as King of Sword Mountain, my Yuan family is still the same as before. It is a family of scholars, and everyone who comes is a distinguished guest!"

Yuan Zhen said slowly.

"It turned out to be a scholarly home, but I thought it had already become a den of thieves!"

Li Xuan's words were still so blunt, and he didn't have the consciousness to reach out and not hit the smiling face.

After this, Yuan Zhen's face immediately turned serious.

"If you have any questions, please tell King Jin clearly. Although my Chen Jun Yuan family has always kept a low profile, I am not one to be bullied!"

"it is good!"

Li Xuan sneered, moved to one side, pointed to the more than 400 people behind him and said: "Yuan Zhen, tell me why these servants of your Yuan family used all kinds of despicable methods Excuse, cheating and abducting to go to Jianshan City?"

At this moment, Yuan Zhen noticed the more than 400 people behind Li Xuan and his more than 100 guards.

At the same time, they all understood why Li Xuan came to the door angrily!

Thinking about it, a smile appeared on Yuan Zhen's face again.

"It turns out that King Jin came here for this matter, please allow me to explain to King Jin!"

"These people are some poor peasants in our Chen County. Many of them have borrowed money and food for my Yuan family. However, because of poor harvests in successive years, they have not paid it back for a long time.

For this reason, as a creditor, it is not an exaggeration for my Yuan family to ask them to go to Jianshan City to reclaim and plant a few more acres of fertile land for my Yuan family! "

"As for the others..."

"Pooh!"

Li Xuan snorted directly, "What a pious King of Sword Mountain!"

Yuan Zhen couldn't help but pause, his face turned livid.

Li Xuan didn't pay attention, and continued: "Leaving aside the question for the time being, how much money can you get back in the end if you lend them a consistent amount of money?

This king will ask you, do they want to go to Jianshan City by themselves?

Also, how many people among them didn't borrow money from your Yuan family, but in the end, people from your Yuan family used those dirty excuses, and even designed them to provoke your Yuan family? "

"You, Yuan Zhen, think that just a few casual words can cover up your Yuan family's reckless behavior in Chen County, maliciously oppressing the people, deceiving and intimidating them privately, and wanting to take these people to Jianshan City?"

"King Jin..."

"This king asks the last question, do you still remember the agreement you signed when you auctioned off the three cities of Jianshan City, how did you agree to it, Your Majesty?"

"This... the old man certainly remembers!"

Yuan Zhen's eyes flickered, and he said slowly.

"That's great. If I can take down Goguryeo and sell those cities to you, then I will be able to take back those three cities again!" Li Xuan said coldly.

"Prince Jin, although this king is not a prince now, he is still a county king. How much money and effort did this king spend to buy Jianshan City, what qualifications do you have to take it back?" Yuan Zhen said angrily.

Li Xuan couldn't help chuckling.

"As long as there is a feudal family that does not abide by the agreement and His Majesty's edict, in order to fill the population of the feudal state, wantonly oppress the people of our Tang Dynasty, and transport the people of our Tang Dynasty to the feudal state, the family will be wiped out!"

"Yuan Zhen, do you think that messing around is useful to me?"

Yuan Zhen was startled, then remembered something, and quickly looked at the steward.

"Lin Nanshan, where did you say you were intercepted by King Jin?"

"Go home, my villain just went out to sea for less than a day, and was stopped by His Royal Highness King Jin!" Lin Nanshan replied quickly.

Hearing this, a gleam of joy flashed in Yuan Zhen's eyes.

"His Royal Highness, these people are not sending Datang away, so this old man does not count as breaking the agreement, let alone disobeying His Majesty's edict! Therefore, please calm down, Prince Jin, and I will enter the house to drink tea before discussing these matters !"

"Yuan Zhen, do you think those who attempted treason are innocent?"

Li Xuan smiled softly, still unmoved!

……

Chapter 816 King Jin clashed with the surname Wang?

"Prince Jin, my Yuan family just wants to take a few hundred peasant households to seal the country to cultivate the fields. How can it be charged with the crime of treason?"

Yuan Zhen's eyes widened, his expression slightly annoyed.

"Being a person should have integrity. If you lose your integrity, what else do you have to convince me that you, the King of Sword Mountain, will grow stronger in the future and will not have evil intentions?"

Li Xuan sneered, and continued: "You, the Yuan family, dared to secretly oppress the people this time, and wanted to abduct these 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 my Great Tang is not limited to your Yuan family?

If this king does not punish your Yuan family, what face does this king have to seek trouble from other families?

What if those nobles from aristocratic families, like your Yuan family, used all kinds of dirty means to bully the people of all states and counties?

How many people will my Tang Dynasty lose?

forty thousand?

40?

Or, millions? ..."

Yuan Zhen: "..."

He was dumbfounded.

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

"Master, we came from such a long distance, shouldn't we smash down the gate of Yuan's family like Jinyang Wang's? Or just take advantage of this old thief here, take him directly and take him back to Chang'an?"

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

Yuchi Baolin said impatiently.
