    This accident happened suddenly.

    When the banner of King Guangling reappeared outside the city walls of the capital, many people thought that it must be a fake, and the impersonator was either Wang Long or Cui Yan or Gao Jun.

    Until they rushed over and robbed the camp of King Liang.

    Shuofang's soldiers and horses were far stronger than Yuan's, and King Liang didn't know that the people under his command were weak compared to them until he actually led his troops to fight with that army and horses.

    It's just a field of vegetable melons.

    King Liang's soldiers and horses could not even stop for a moment, and they would collapse at the touch of a touch.  Then, the entire camp was surrounded, cutting off the possibility of their escape.

    What made Liang Wang's heart feel like a heavy hammer was when he saw Xiao Huan's figure.

    With that appearance, even if it turns into ashes, he will not admit his mistake.

    Xiao Huan stands on the chariot and sits in the middle army.  Those soldiers and horses didn't pay attention to King Liang's people at all, and didn't even come over to take a look. They only quickly occupied the terrain, cooperated with the forbidden army of the central Beijing uprising, and quickly occupied the city gate.

    "Your Highness" A general hurried over, holding a letter in his hand, stammering, "King Guangling sent this letter, saying that His Highness must open it and read it personally"

    King Liang took the letter with a cold face, and after unfolding it, he saw the familiar handwriting inside.

    It was Xiao Huan's.

    In the letter, Xiao Huan spoke righteously, saying that the capital city is the best in the world, and that the Yuan family has been in trouble for a long time, and the people are in dire straits.  In order to avoid the superposition of military disasters and the loss of life, he conspired with the imperial guards in Beijing to break through the city gate by cooperating with the inside and outside.  The purpose of my plan this time is to let the Yuan family in the city relax their vigilance so that the imperial army can make trouble.  But King Liang and the Zhou family actually harbored evil intentions and secretly planned to murder Xiao Huan and the emperor. This act of filial piety and disrespect will make the enemies feel pain.  At present, the nobleman Zhou and Zhou Cheng have been captured, and they are being taken to the capital together with the emperor. Remembering the old friendship between brothers, they hope that Liang Wang will rein in his horse from the precipice and come down immediately. Don't say it was unexpected.

    King Liang watched, only staring at the names of Zhou Guiren and Zhou Chengdi, uncertain.

    After a while, another general rushed over and handed over a note.

    It was a pigeon letter, and after unfolding it, there were only a few words on the tiny paper¡ªthe emperor, Zhou Guiren and Zhou Cheng had been taken away from the Julu Palace by Xiao Huan's people, and their whereabouts were unknown.

    Finally, there was a change on Liang Wang's expressionless face, and his eyes were tearing apart.

    Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood "wow", and fell unconscious.

    *

    As the sun rises, the capital has a new look.

    The people who had been trapped for several months were all surprised when they heard that King Guangling led Shuofang's troops into the city.

    Since Yuan's rebellion, the atmosphere in the capital has been very tense. Those who can get in have already fled to avoid goods, and the rest of them either have nowhere to go or want to leave. The capital has been blocked, so they have to stay in the  At home, I live in panic.

    Over the past few months, supplies in the capital have been tight, and the Yuan family has to support many soldiers and horses, allowing the sergeants to plunder everywhere.  The people had endured the whole winter, and they were already hungry, and they were even more frightened when they saw King Guangling's army besieging the city.

    They originally thought that if there was a big war, blood would be shed in the city. Since the army besieged the city, everyone shut their doors and dared not go out, fearing that they would be killed.

    But unexpectedly, none of this happened.

    In just one night, not only has the capital changed, but the rumored King Guangling, who was assassinated by the Yuan family, has returned intact.

    The emperor's banner at the top of the city, and the Shuofang soldiers and horses entering the city majesticly on the street, everything is true.

    Many people worried that these people would come and rob one after another like Yuan's soldiers and horses, and hurriedly closed the door and hid the only things left in their homes.  But after waiting for a long time, he found that the wind and sea were calm, and carefully opened the door to check, but saw that the soldiers from Shuofang were still everywhere, but they only stayed in the street, and they sat on the ground when they were tired and sleepy.

    And then, more surprising news came from outside.

    King Guangling mobilized a large amount of grain and grass from Shuofang and Bingzhou and sent it to the capital to help the people, and set up porridge in each neighborhood.

    The people in the capital city have suffered enough oppression and famine for more than half a year, and they are all delighted to receive this news, and finally feel that this is really the return of Master Wang.

    And when they heard that King Guangling led Shuofang troops to attack Miyagi without any effort, and captured Queen Yuan, King Chen and the Yuan clan, they all clapped their hands and cheered.

    But at the same time, more people are concerned about another issue.

      Is King Guangling still alive like this?  What on earth did he do that he was always so fateful that he couldn't even die?

    "There are 53,752 people who surrendered from the former Yuan family in Beijing, plus other miscellaneous soldiers and officials of all sizes, totaling 76,679 people." In front of Miyagi, the Lord  Bu Cui Yan was in high spirits, and reported to Xiao Huan, "There are too many people, so we have to be detained on the spot at present, and I don't know what your highness wants."

    Xiao Huan nodded, and said: "There are several teaching grounds in Beijing, all of which are large enough, and they can be sent to various teaching grounds for interrogation. Then, according to the previously agreed policy, we will send people to screen and interrogate them, depending on the severity of the crime, or put them into detention and reform through labor."  , or execution, everything follows the rules.¡±

    Cui Yan agreed.

    When Wang Long heard the word "reform through labor", he couldn't help squinting at Xiao Huan.

    This kid has a lot of thoughts now, and he will say something natural that he has never heard before, and then explain a lot of big truths.

    For example, the so-called reform through labor, explained in Xiao Huan's words, is called reform through labor.

    Wang Long had heard every word, but together, he couldn't understand it.

    In Wang Long's eyes, since these soldiers and horses of the Yuan family had the guts to commit crimes and cause such a big mess, they deserved to die.  After being caught, even if they voluntarily surrendered, it would not be unfair to kill them one by one.  Anyway, it is written in the law that the rebels will be punished by the clan, and it is already tolerant to only take the lives of these people.

    But Xiao Huan disagreed.  In his opinion, the chief culprits of the rebellion, and those who had innocent lives on their hands, should be killed without pardon.  However, the clauses in the law are actually quite general. If the family members are innocent, then there is no need for clan punishment.

    As for those who are not worthy of the death penalty, they are confiscated into slavery or exiled, Xiao Huan also does not support it.  In his words, the purpose of punishment is to make these people reform and return to society.  After a period of turmoil, the world has become even more desolate, and it is time to employ people. If we follow the example of the Teng family, it will be harmful but not beneficial.

    ¡ª¡ª "Then how do you plan to punish?" When Wang Long heard this statement, he couldn't help but laugh, "According to your method, there will be no officials and slaves in the world in the future, and there will be no prisoners in the frontier."

    "The law of slaves and servants is not a benevolent government. Those who have slavery in the past dynasties are all signs of decline. In this case, if the government sets an example and does not set up official slaves, why is there any trouble?" Xiao Huan said, "As for the frontier, move  It is a national policy to encourage the people of the Central Plains to settle in the frontiers, and it is necessary to advocate it as a place of honor, so how can the frontiers be used as a place of punishment?"

    Wang Long looked at Xiao Huan suspiciously: "You mean"

    "Reform through labor." Xiao Huan said decisively, "Nowadays, the world is in decline, water conservancy is not booming, roads are damaged, fields are barren, and a large number of people are needed. In the future, the court will not support idlers in prisons, and criminals, no matter how rich or poor, will be punished with hard labor.  In order to teach agricultural and industrial skills, they will be sent back to their hometowns after serving their sentences. Anyway, they are all ordinary people. If they are willing to farm and work, it is not a great kindness."

    Wang Long was speechless.

    What Xiao Huan wants to do is not benevolent government, he is clearly acting as a nanny for these rebels, and he is even worried about how to live in the future.

    Those dignitaries who know that although they will avoid death in the future, they will be more willing to die if they really want to build roads, build bridges and farm fields.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
