After an autumn rain, the temperature plummets.
Most of the people walking on the street have taken off their thin summer shirts and changed into thick coarse cloth autumn clothes.
For the fall of the Yuan Shu group, no one will feel sorry, from Wancheng to Shouchun, almost every household put up lights, every household is colorful, and congratulations on being freed from the tyranny of the Yuan family.
In Shouchun City, in front of the vegetable market.
The people were surrounded by a sea of people, and they rushed to see that these gangs of evildoers who had ruined many people's families were punished as they deserved.
Since Yuan Shu ruled the three counties, he forcibly conscripted more than 100,000 people, abducted thousands of young girls, and greatly increased various taxes.
As a result, many families have been destroyed, and hundreds of thousands of people have fled their homes and fled to various places.
Yuan Shu's evil is not under Dong Zhuo, and the people are secretly gritting their teeth, hating to eat his flesh raw, and now God has finally opened his eyes.
It's a pity that Yuan Shu, the thief, was not torn apart by Ling Chi or Che, but being able to see his son and his henchmen in different places is also a big thing.
Therefore, the people of Shouchun almost poured out of the city and came to the execution ground to watch the beheading of Yuan Yao and others.
The one in charge of supervising the beheading is the fierce general Chang Yuchun, and killing is his favorite.
The defenders in Shouchun City took the initiative to open the door and surrender, which made Chang Yuchun feel that it was not enjoyable at all, and it was enough to kill him.
Then find an excuse to kill all the defenders inside in order to shock the world "The traitors Yuan Yao, Yuan Yin, Yuan Lian, Han Yin, etc., a total of 37 thieves, all of whom are the culprits who bewitched Yuan Shu to encroach on the emperor, treason and deceive the king, and now follow the edict of the Son of Heaven, and the head is in the downtown to tell the world" Chang Yuchun sat on the prison beheading platform, recited the edict written by the scribe in his hand, and then dropped an arrow and screamed at the thirty-seven big-shouldered and round-waisted executioners, "beheaded" "Slowly, often keep people under the saber" There was a loud shout from the bustling crowd, and Liu Ye and a dozen entourages struggled to break through the crowd and shouted to Chang Yuchun, who was beheaded.
When Liu Ye approached, Chang Yuchun frowned impatiently and said: "Mr.
Ziyang, which play is this singing to behead Yuan Yao and other traitors to show the public, but His Majesty's holy edict was ordered by General Yue to supervise the beheading, why did Mr. jump out and go against it?"
Liu Ye said with a smile: "Yuan Yao, Yuan Yin and others are all close relatives of Yuan Shu, so naturally they should kill someone who is saved, it is Yuan Jian of Chen County, and I hope that the general will be accommodating and raise his noble hand." ” "Isn't Yuan Shu a member of Yuan Shu's clan?"
Chang Yuchun asked with a hard beard and puzzled.
Liu Ye said with a smile: "Yuan Lian's ancestor is from Chen County, and he is not the same clan as Yuan Shu's Runan Yuan family.
Besides, this person has an upright style and is known to have a clear name, so he should not be beheaded.
Perhaps His Majesty mistakenly thought of him as the Yuan Shu clan, so he was included in the list of beheadings.
Please also ask General Chang to raise his noble hand and leave Yuan Lian's life for the time being."
"That's not good, Yuan Lian's name is clearly written on the edict, and I don't dare to forgive repeat offenders privately."
Chang Yuchun shook like a rattle and rejected Liu Ye's request, "Besides, who let this guy surnamed Yuan come and work hard for Yuan Shu, killing him is not unjust at all" Chang Yuchun was about to order the execution as he spoke, Liu Ye hurriedly stopped him, and said with a smile: "When Ye was inspecting the whole city of Shouchun in the past few days, he rescued many young women from brothels, many of whom were abducted and trafficked, because they would rather die than lose their lives.
Many people begged Ye to find a good home for them, if General Chang could raise his noble hand, and turn around Ye to choose three or five handsome ones to send to you, how about it?"
"This is true" Chang Yuchun suddenly became interested, rubbing his beard and said, "Three or five is too little, at least ten" Liu Yewan said with a smile: "Ten is ten, but I have to talk about the front, General Chang can't abuse these women, they are all children of poor families."
If that is the case, it will also rebel against the benevolent government of the Son of Heaven, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain the matter to General Yue. ” "A certain is not a thief, although Mr.
Ziyang has a hundred and twenty hearts, as long as Chang sees it, he will accept it as a concubine, dress her in gold and silver, eat and drink spicy; If you don't like it, you will be taken as a maid and pay a monthly salary.
In this way, General Yue will have nothing to say."
Chang Yuchun patted Liu Ye's chest and packed the ticket, and finally said: "A certain person also has something to say in the front, if you don't kill Yuan Lian, Ziyang must repair the book with the Son of Heaven."
If there is any punishment, it will all fall on you, and it has nothing to do with it."
Liu Ye arched his hand and said: "Naturally, naturally Ye will repair the book to His Majesty when he turns around, and if there is any punishment, Liu Ye will bear it."
Yuan Jian was pulled out of the execution ground, and watched the corpses of Yuan Yao, Yuan Yin, Han Yin and others in two places, blood stained the entrance of the vegetable market, and then thirty-six heads were hung at the gate of the city to show the public.
Liu Ye took Yuan Jian back to his residence and comforted: "Brother Yaoqing, don't worry, the three counties are at the beginning of peace, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, and the imperial court is the time to employ people."
After reading Ye's letter, His Majesty will definitely not hold Brother Tai accountable, and may be able to entrust him with a heavy responsibility."
"Everything is troublesome, Brother Ziyang," Yuan Lian thanked him.
After settling Yuan Lian, Liu Ye brought his entourage to visit Ji Ling, who was closed.
Outside a deserted mansion were a hundred and ten fully armored soldiers, and all the servants in the mansion had been dismissed, and only Ji Ling, the former number one general under Yuan Shu, was imprisoned inside.
Liu Ye took his entourage to push open the chamber, but found that Ji Ling was dressed in white and was about to commit suicide by hanging from the beam. hurriedly ordered his entourage to save him, and comforted: "Why did General Ji bother to kill himself?"
"Ling is deeply favored by Duke Yuan, and he can't protect the lord, so he lives in the world without shame," Ji Ling sighed when he looked up to the sky.
Liu Ye quietly advised: "The general is happy to die, but your wife and children are all captured in Runan, can the general bear to see them as slaves and prostitutes?"
Liu Ye's words pierced Ji Ling's heart like a needle, making his voice tremble slightly: "This is fate, what can I do?"
"Today, the princes are rising, and the court is the time to employ people.
The general is skilled in bows and horses, if he can abandon his previous suspicions and serve His Majesty, not only will your family not suffer, but they can also be protected by the general, why bother to serve Yuan Shu This foolish loyalty" Liu Ye used his three-inch tongue and tried his best to advise.
Ji Ling sighed: "A certain person once ambushed the Son of Heaven, but I am afraid that I will not be compatible with each other in the end, but I am afraid that it will still be inevitable to die, but it is not as good as the backbone to die now."
Liu Ye patted Ji Ling's shoulder and reassured: "The generals are too worried, each is his own master, the fault is not that your majesty still has this amount of tolerance, you see that several generals such as Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, and Jiang Qin are all bandits who have ambushed His Majesty, and now they have become the commanders of one side, and your colleagues Han Hao, Qiao Rui, etc. have been reused, and Liu Xun, Yan Xiang, Yang Hong and others have not been held accountable."

As long as General Ji has the heart to work for the revival of the Han family, everything will be on Liu Ye."
After thinking about it, Ji Ling finally stained his clothes with tears and knelt down on one knee to Liu Ye: "For the sake of his wife and children, Ji Ling has no choice but to live up to Yuan Gong's spirit in the sky, if Mr. can keep the safety of the Ling family, he is willing to serve the Son of Heaven."
"Those who know the times are handsome, so it is wise" The lobbying was successful, Liu Ye happily helped Ji Ling up and comforted him to wait patiently.
Then he returned to his residence, wrote a book, and sent a fast horse to Wancheng to present it to the Son of Heaven to exonerate Yuan Jian and Ji Ling.
Just when Shouchun killed thirty-six of Yuan Shu's dead friends, Wancheng also killed a group of Yuan Shu's henchmen, most of whom were mediocre and incompetent.
After all, what Yuan Shu committed was a great crime of arrogating the emperor, treason and bullying the king, according to the law of the Han Dynasty, it should be exterminated by the nine clans, and the dignity of the law could not be maintained.
Two days later, Liu Ye's letter was delivered to the Son of Heaven.
After reading it, Liu Wei waved his pen and forgave the sins of Yuan Jian and Ji Ling.
Ji Ling was ordered to wait for dispatch under Yue Fei's tent, and Yuan Lian, Yan Xiang, Yang Hong and other civil officials temporarily dispersed in Shouchun, and then waited for dispatch.
Yuan Shu has been pacified, and the four counties of Lujiang, Runan, Nanyang, and Huainan and more than 80 county towns under their jurisdiction have all been in their hands.
It's time for the squad to return to Jinling, and then tidy up the place, so that the soldiers can rest and recuperate for a while.
As the territory expanded, Liu found that the previous appointment method was no longer working and that a change had to be made.
The local guards appointed by Liu Wei before, such as Jianye Taishou Di Renjie, Wujun Taishou Lusu, Huiji Taishou Gu Yong, and Runan Taishou Xun Yu, these people are all great talents who can serve as prime ministers and govern a country.
With the expansion of the territory and the increase of the number of counties under his rule, it is impossible to arrange such talents in every place, so it is necessary to set up a position higher than the Taishou and unify the jurisdiction of the locality, so that the Taishou can arrange some people with slightly less political ability to fill the position.
According to the Han system, above the Taishou and the state minister are the assassins and state pastors, but Liu Wei believes that the power of the state pastors and the state ministers is too great and must be gradually abolished from now on.
Secondly, these four counties belong to Yuzhou, Jingzhou, and Yangzhou respectively, and they can't set up a history of thorns, so they can't set up another state The hall was brightly lit, and Liu Wei had been thinking about personnel arrangements all night.
After thinking about it for most of the night, he finally made a final decision: to set up the post of Jiangbei Governor, which was held by Xun Yu, and held the local government affairs of the four counties of Jiangbei as the governor of the festival.
The festival is the emperor's imperial token, equivalent to the "Shang Fang Sword" in later generations, just like the Son of Heaven in person, the right to cut first and then play.
It is a great honor to be able to receive such an appointment, and it can also form a great deterrent for local officials.
In this era, there were three kinds of local officials appointed by the emperor: one was to hold the festival, one was the false festival, and the other was the envoy to hold the festival.
Those who hold festivals have the right to kill people without official positions on weekdays, but if it is wartime, their power can be increased, and they have the right to directly kill officials who are less than 2,000 stones.
That is to say, except for the local supreme Taishou and the prime minister, who enjoy 2,000 stones, all subordinate officials can be cut first and then played.
A higher level than the holding festival is the "envoy holding the festival", whether in peacetime or wartime, they have the right to kill officials under 2,000 stones, and they can be killed directly without going to the imperial court.
Because of the enormous power, the imperial court rarely granted the position of "envoy".
According to the history of Wei, during the period of Emperor Wei Ming, Xin Bi was crowned as the general of the military division, and was awarded the title of "envoy festival".
Even Sima Yi, who held the power of the army and worked hard, wanted to lead his troops out of Shouchun to attack Wu, but was stopped by the Xinbi Festival, and Sima Yi did not dare to disobey, so he had to quit the army.
Later, Cao Shuang served as a general and was awarded the title of "Envoy Jie", and the military governor of Qing and Xu Prefectures, because of discord with Zou Qi, the assassin of Xuzhou, killed Zou Qi with the Jiejie, and created a precedent for the envoy to kill the highest local officials.
In addition to the festival and the envoy, another type of appointment is called "false festival".
The meaning of "false" is not false or forged.
However, the object of the "false festival" is only applicable to the army, and it has no right to kill people on weekdays, and in wartime it is possible to kill non-commissioned soldiers who violate military orders or military attaches below the rank of general.
Later, because of the frequent wars, in addition to the three titles of holding festivals, envoys, and fake festivals, two more titles were added, one is a fake festival, and the other is a higher one is a fake yellow Yue.
Those who are fake and frugal, whether in peacetime or wartime, have the right to kill local civil officials and generals below the miscellaneous name, and the weight of power is so heavy that all civil and military officials are deterred.
In addition to having the right to kill the Taishou and miscellaneous generals, there is even the right to kill the civil officials and military generals who hold the festival, which is simply the emperor's patrol, and the hundred officials are even more colored.
After careful consideration, Liu Wei awarded Xun Yu the important position of Jiangbei governor's envoy, which was not only a recognition of his talent, but also a trust in him.
Granting the title of "Holding Festival" is a supreme honor. t1706231537:
