Ma Liang is still confident and calm, neither humble nor overbearing: "Liu Pan and the magistrate are brothers. Do you really think Liu Pan will not help the magistrate? If Liu Pan did not help each other, the county magistrate's army would not be able to enter the barracks; without Liu Pan's help, the county magistrate would not be able to ambush Zhu Biao quietly. Now, Zhu Biao must have been killed, and the county magistrate is on his way back. "
Once these words came out, people from all families were slightly relieved.
One by one, they began to pray that Liu Xiu would win. After all, they had already torn the skin with Huo Yun.
Huo Yun said: "in that case, we will wait and see. Before Liu Xiu comes back, you dare not move me, otherwise once Zhu Biao wins, the consequences will be different. "
Ma Liang said: "Huo Yun, up to now, you still think you are right."
"Somebody
Ma Liang waved his hand and the soldiers in the room rushed up.
Ma Liang said, "tie Huo Yun up and wait for your return with me." Ma Liang stood on Liu Xiu's side. Without any hesitation, he tied Huo Yun up, and Huo Yun did not resist. He sneered and let the soldiers tie him up.
"Dong! Dong
Knock on the door, outside the door.
"Who?"
Ma Liang's brow tightened and his eyes showed a cautious look.
Outside the gate, Qiu Bao's voice rang out and said, "Mr. Ma, I'm Qiu Bao."
Ma Liang said, "open the door!"
The soldier opened the door and Qiu Bao came in quickly.
Seeing that Huo Yun had been tied up, Qiu Bao had a bright smile on his face and said, "Mr. Ma, you killed Zhu Biao and defeated Tianlong mountain bandits. Now I'm on my way back. Let me come back and get the message
"Good!"
Ma Liang's heart settled down when he heard the speech.
After Qiu Bao retreated, Ma Liang looked at Huo Yun and said, "without Zhu Biao, Huo Yun, do you have anything else to say?"
Huo Yun still didn't believe it, and said, "it's impossible. Zhu Biao can't be killed."
Ma Liang laughed and said with disdain: "in your eyes, Zhu Biao is very powerful. But in the hands of the county magistrate, Zhu Biao is just a grasshopper all the time. If you step on it, Zhu Biao will die. It's not worth mentioning. "
Huo Yun turned his eyes and said, "Liu Xiu doesn't dare to kill me. The Huo family has a hundred year history in you county. Once the Huo family is in turmoil, you county will inevitably be shaken. "
Ma Liang said: "You county large-scale famine, shock is not enough?"
After a pause, Ma Liang said: "you have forgotten one thing. All the families and shops in you County hope that the Huo family will fall apart and that the unjust money for purchasing farmland will be recovered. The county magistrate said that after the Huo family was removed, all the prices were sold according to the money on the county government's account books, and all the money wronged by the major families was returned. "
Huo Yun's face has changed greatly.
At this moment, Huo Yuncai suddenly found that Liu Xiu isolated him.
If the Huo family is strong, there will be no problem. However, once the Huo family is on the verge of extinction, the situation is that the wall falls and the people push.
Lost!
Huo Yun's heart is cold.
The people in the hall saw Huo Yun's gloomy look, and they were happy again.
Huo Yun's defeat means you county has changed. From today on, you county has completely entered the Liu Xiu era. In particular, behind Liu Xiu are the help of the Kuai family, Pang family and Huang family. Liu Xiu's position in you county is unshakable.
Half an hour later, the soldiers reported that Liu Xiu had already returned to the city with a group of soldiers.
The accompanying soldiers immediately surrounded the Huo family.
At the gate of the county government, Kuai Qi, Ma Liang, Kang He and other members of the major families are waiting for Liu Xiu's victory.
When Liu Xiu and Huang Zhong and Pang Tong appeared at the gate of the county government, Huo Yun looked around and didn't see Zhu Biao. In his heart, there was a trace of expectation.
Maybe!
Maybe Zhu Biao is not dead yet!
Liu Xiu stares at huoyun, smiles, looks at Kuai Qi, and orders: "Kuai Qi, tianlongling has been taken, and the food and property of tianlongling are on the way to the county. You and Ma Liang are ready to put money and grain into the warehouse. "
"No!"
Kuai Qi was so excited.
Win!
This battle is really won.
After Huo Yun heard this, the expectation just raised in his heart was shattered again. He hoped that Zhu Biao was not dead, but when he heard Liu Xiu's words, Huo Yun knew that Zhu Biao must be dead, otherwise Liu Xiu could not arrange Kuai Qi to count the materials.
The party went back to the hall of the county government.
After Liu Xiu sat down, his eyes fell on Huo Yun and said, "Huo Yun, today is the time for you to move 200000 stone grain. But with the change of the situation, you become a prisoner. What do you think? "
Huo Yun knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "county magistrate, I'm wrong. Please forgive me. I'm sure that I'll make contributions to my crimes and never make mistakes again. "At this moment, Huo Yun only wants to live. As long as we get through the present difficulties and survive, everything will be easy to say.
The rest of the families were all nervous at Huo Yun's words. In their view, as long as Huo Yun survives, it is a threat, which is absolutely not allowed.
Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "if I plan to spare you, will I send troops to block the Huo family and start copying it?"
Huo Yun's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
What to do?
How can we survive?
Huo Yun's brain is spinning. He uses his brain to save his life. Huo Yun kowtowed to the ground and said in a loud voice: "county magistrate, I am familiar with the situation of you county and can do a lot for you. On the surface, the people of the major families listen to the adults, but they help you for their own interests. Once they have new interests, they will also sell you out. As long as the villains are there, they can be obedient. "
Instead of answering, Liu Xiu asked, "Huo Yun, you've offended a lot of people."
"Yes
Huo Yun nodded, he answered honestly.
Since he became the county magistrate, Huo Yun has taken over the power of you county.
Liu Xiu said: "we will talk about the affairs of the major families later. But now that they kill you, they'll thank me. In particular, you county now needs a clean and honest official environment. "
Huo Yun said: "as long as the adults spare the villain's life, I will change."
Liu xiudao: "when you were in you County, you bullied officials, humiliated the people and colluded with thieves and bandits. If you do not die, there will always be a knot in the heart of the officials; if you do not die, there will always be resentment in the heart of the people; if you do not die, the officialdom of you county will never be clear. How can I account to the people if you do not die? "
Every rhetorical question, like a heavy hammer in general, constantly knocking in Huo Yun's heart.
Huo Yun was dejected and said, "my Lord, I can use it." Up to now, Huo Yun can only say such words, he just wants to live mechanically.
Liu Xiu said: "You county needs an outsider. In the eyes of my official, you can use it to frighten other corrupt officials. "
Huo Yun knew that he had no hope any more, so he stopped talking.
With a big wave of his hand, Liu Xiu said, "take it down and wait for the public trial."
The soldiers came forward and escorted Huo Yun to retreat.
Liu Xiu looked at all the people in the hall and said with a smile: "today, I can easily control Huo Yun. I depend on your help. Thank you very much. "
After hearing this, the public said that it was unnecessary.
All the people saw Liu Xiu's methods and were in awe of him.
Arrogant Huo Yun and ferocious Zhu Biao are easily captured by Liu Xiu. In front of Liu Xiu, all the big families dare not have any proud thoughts and are respectful.
