    On the same day, people from Wang Lei's supervisory department, with the cooperation of the army, ordered the arrest of all those who committed the crime, and announced to the people that the Qu family was merely supervising the crime poorly and would only impose appropriate financial penalties and that they could go back to work.

    When all the people heard that the Qu family was acquitted, they all thought it was a cover-up. The Qu family was because Qu Xi was the top businessman in the Han Dynasty and Qu Lingchen was the wife of the King of Shu. All the people who were acquitted felt strong dissatisfaction with the government.

    But the next moment, they were all stunned. The Qu family was acquitted, and then the government announced that it was the Huang family who committed the crime.

    When it comes to official strength, the Qu family is not as good as the Huang family. Qu Lingchen's status is not as good as Huang Yue. No one in the Qu family is in the officialdom. Huang Quan is the number one civil servant in the Sichuan Army.

    There is no longer any common people who suspect that it is a cover-up. It is impossible for the government to dig out the Huang family for a small Qu family. If the Qu family is dug out for the Huang family, it is a cover-up.

    And it¡¯s not just that. When the Qu family committed the crime, they just gave up their business in Peiping. But this time it was discovered that it was the Huang family that robbed the Qu family¡¯s business at the cost of soldiers¡¯ lives, and there were too many people involved.

    An engineering accident suddenly escalated to the level of conspiracy to kill someone and official corruption, which is a lot of crimes.

    There are more than 100 Huang family members to be arrested, nearly half of whom are to be executed, and nearly 1,000 officials have been implicated. More than 100 officials in Peiping's supervision of the project alone have been implicated. This is a much greater result than what the Qu family had to bear before.  Too much.

    Only then did the people know that this time it was a relative of a high-ranking official in the Sichuan Army who committed the crime, and that it was a hidden crime.

    In the past, these common people thought that the Sichuan Army was thinking about the people. After all, under the leadership of Liu Zhang, countless policies to benefit the people, and the obvious prosperity of the areas under the jurisdiction of the Sichuan Army compared with Jiangdong and Hebei, convinced the people.  .

    Precisely because I feel that the Sichuan Army loves and protects the people.  Therefore, the people of Youzhou and Hebei have no resistance to the Sichuan army.

    But now I know that there is also a dirty side in the Sichuan Army. There are also officials who are corrupt, and there are not a few. There are also those who play with power to benefit their families, and do so by any means.

    And this family is still the family of Sichuan army officials like Huang Quan.

    The people woke up from their blind admiration for the Sichuan Army.

    ¡°However, this did not affect public sentiment.  In the past, the people of Sichuan were just grateful to the Sichuan army for bringing them a good life. After the eradication of the noble families, taxes became lower and various new measures were taken.  Grain production has increased, and people at the bottom can become officials as long as they study hard.

    They fully and unconditionally support the Sichuan Army. Many people will look angrily whenever someone speaks ill of the Sichuan Army.

    "But the people in other places, such as Youzhou and Jiangdong in Hebei, are just thinking and looking forward to the arrival of the Sichuan Army, thinking that as long as the Sichuan Army arrives.  The government will be as clean as water, and you can live a good life like the people of Sichuan.

    So the Sichuan army unified the world, and they cheered.

    And now this case has awakened them from their dream.  Blindness becomes rational, and they know that the Sichuan Army also has a bad side and is not so perfect.

    But the people will not be disgusted or suspicious of the Sichuan Army because of this.  What they are waiting for now is a result.

    So many members of the Huang family have been arrested.  The arrest of so many officials, including close relatives of Huang Quan and Huang Yue, and the simultaneous killing of so many officials must have caused some chaos.

    Liu Zhang is about to proclaim himself emperor, will the Sichuan army dare to deal with him?  Will it be anticlimactic?

    If the answer is yes, that is when the prestige of the Sichuan Army plummeted.

    Hearing that a nest case had occurred in Peiping, the Empress Dowager Fu Shou was "furious" and brought most of the civil and military personnel from Chang'an, including all the upper-level officials, to Peiping to supervise law enforcement.

    ¡°But everyone didn¡¯t quite understand why the execution had to be done in Peking even though the case occurred in Peking. Most of the officials who committed the crime were from other places, and they were all escorted to Peking.

    ??Including the aristocratic families in Jiangdong and the aristocratic families captured in Hebei, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Yangzhou were also escorted to Peiping.

    After all the criminals arrived in Peking, Liu Zhang ordered the members of the Huang family who committed the crime, as well as the officials who committed the crime, to be executed together with those aristocratic families.

    Everyone was shocked again, was Liu Zhang slapping himself in the face?  It was obvious that those aristocratic families were arrested due to the violence of the Sichuan army because they resisted the New Deal.

    Now these officials and families who came up with the New Deal committed the same crime and selfishness, but Liu Zhang executed these people together with the previous members of the traditional family. Isn't this a slap in the face?

    But in this surprise, the people suddenly felt at ease. They originally doubted whether Liu Zhang would severely punish his officials and relatives of honorable ministers when he was about to become emperor.

    Now we not only need to punish, but also use this kind of beatingPunishment in the face of one's own face is similar in nature to the sinner's edict, but it is more severe than the sinner's edict.

    Although it is true that many officials and honorable ministers of the Sichuan Army committed crimes, such public disposal made the people feel more reliable. After the initial blind support, they now see the pragmatism of the Sichuan Army.

    It seems to have returned to the time when Liu Zhang ordered Ling Chi to kill Liu Mao. The people of Yizhou at that time and the people of the Han Dynasty now had the same thoughts.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    But soon, another news came. Master Zhang Lu of the Tianshi Dao accidentally saw a red light rising into the sky from the northeast on Mount Emei. He then took his disciples to Hebei and discovered the Palace of Immortality that had not been seen for thousands of years north of Peiping.

    It is said that the Palace of Immortality will only appear when the Holy King comes to the court. When the Three Emperors and Five Emperors ascended the throne, the Palace of Immortality will appear in the city where the Holy King governs.

    Since Xia Yu, the Palace of Immortality has disappeared. The last time it appeared was in 1056 BC, when King Wu of Zhou inherited the throne. After that, King Wu visited Mengjin and gathered a thousand princes.  The Battle of Muye defeated King Zhou of Shang and established the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

    The Palace of Immortality means that the Holy King is about to come to the court, and it also means that the world is about to be governed, which is the greatest sign of good fortune.

    When the people heard about it, they soon knew the reason for the appearance of the Palace of Immortality. It was not only because Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, was about to ascend the throne, but because Liu Zhang ordered to kill the bad apples among the officials and the children of the Xunchen family who were only seeking profit and harming the people.  .

    Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? As soon as Liu Zhang gave the order, the Palace of Immortality came out.

    But the only thing that puzzled the Han people was why the Palace of Immortality was not born in Chang'an but in Peiping?  Is it because Peking executed those prisoners?

    ??The Palace of Immortality was born in the city where the king ruled. Does this mean that Peking will become the capital of the Han Dynasty?

    "No one can make the Palace of Immortality appear for the second time in such a short period of time, and no one believes it at all. If the capital is Chang'an, it is obviously giving up on Furui.

    In other words, if you want to achieve great governance, do you have to make Peiping the capital?

    Except for the people in Youzhou who were crazy happy, the people in Hebei were also happy. The people in other states were depressed and complained why the prisoners were not executed in Chang'an or Luoyang. You know, Peking is too remote.

    Although many of these people will never be able to leave their hometowns in their lifetime, after all, in terms of impression, Chang'an and Luoyang are much closer to their homes.

    The people and businessmen in Guanzhong are even more frightened. If the capital is located in Peking, the prosperity of Chang'an will definitely be reduced by half, which will directly affect their interests.

    "A palace of immortality may not allow the Han Dynasty to make Peiping its capital. The people, officials and businessmen all thought so.

    But then, Zen Master Hongye, the Buddhist Zen master with the highest status among Chinese missionaries, announced that seeing the light of ten thousand feet of Buddha in Kongtong Mountain east of Peiping (located in Tianjin) was a sign of the coming of ten thousand Buddhas.

    Buddhism has just experienced its first wave of large-scale preaching under the support of Liu Zhang. Although it is still far less influential than Taoism, it already has many believers, and Buddhist speech cannot be ignored.

    Zen Master Hongye led the monks to worship at Kongtong Mountain, claiming that this was the paradise of the West. The Buddha discovered that the Holy King of the East was coming to the court, and came to spread the benevolent Buddha's light. This was not only to congratulate the Holy King, but also to help the Holy King, so that the Han Dynasty could be ruled by the Holy King.  , more prosperous.

    On the edge of the primeval forest in the northeast of Beiping, many hunters discovered the auspicious beast Qilin.

    The people of Peiping also saw the bells and tripods of the Red Emperor's capital on the backs of many bees and butterflies. The people didn't recognize them at first, but it took some old people who had studied onmyoji for generations to see the clues and recognize them.

    Various visions came one after another, all pointing to one point: Liu Zhang was the reincarnation of the Red Emperor, the Holy King came to the court, and Peiping was the city where the Holy King ruled, and the capital of the Red Emperor.

    This time, apart from the disappointment of the people in Guanzhong, no one opposed the establishment of Peiping as the capital. In fact, they didn't care much about where the capital was. They just felt that Chang'an and Luoyang had always been the administrative center, and they were not used to moving to a remote place.

    The rest are businessmen and officials. Many large businessmen have their headquarters in Chang'an. Relocating to Peking will cause losses. This is still a small matter. The key is that if Peking is the capital, then business will obviously center on Peking.

    But it¡¯s too far here. Not only is the domestic route for transferring goods long, but it¡¯s also far from the Western Region and the Southwest Silk Road, which will increase their business costs.

    They are unwilling to move the capital to Peking.

    Most of those officials were brought up by Liu Zhang from Jingyi and Yongliang. Everyone hopes that the capital will be close to their hometown.?, and the most important thing is that most of their forces are distributed in the west. Now that the capital has been moved, they have to take root in Beiping again.

    This is what they don¡¯t want.

    In addition, factors such as remoteness, coldness, and being too close to the grassland have made many officials dissatisfied.

    But what can we do if we are dissatisfied?

    The Palace of Immortality, the light of the Buddha, the unicorn beast, and the bees and butterflies carrying bells and tripods are all in Peiping. If you oppose making Peiping the capital, don¡¯t you want to reject these auspicious signs?

    Even if some more enlightened people know that this is fake, they dare not tell it. That is seeking death.
