Ma Zhong and Liu Pan took action at the same time, and Xiangyang City was immediately enveloped in an aura of terror.
Anyone who spreads rumors in restaurants, teahouses, inns, brothels, including the homes of some aristocratic families and officials will be arrested, and anyone who resists will be killed without mercy.
Suddenly, there was a bloody storm.
Ma Liang and Pang Tong wanted to stop Ma Zhong and Liu Pan from their excessive behavior, but how could they listen?
The Tianwang Camp was under the direct command of Liu Cong. Liu Pan was the captain of Xiangyang and Ma Liang was the prefect of Xiangyang. However, Liu Cong had separate military and political affairs from the beginning.
In desperation, Ma Liang and Pang Tong went to find Liu Cong, but Liu Cong had not seen anyone in the past few days.
Some officials and family members were arrested for discussing in public. They went to Ma Liang and Pang Tong and asked them to intercede with Liu Cong, but they couldn't even see Liu Cong and were so anxious.
Finally on the fourth day, when Ma Liang and Pang Tong went to find Liu Cong again, Liu Cong summoned them in the study.
"My lord, Liu Pan and Ma Zhong have arrested hundreds of people recently, and the whole city is in panic!" Ma Liang said anxiously as soon as they met.
"My lord, I heard that some people from the Cai family and Kuai family were also arrested, as well as from other aristocratic families."
"They are not the real rumor makers! Some of them are just talking about it. It may be inappropriate for Ma Zhong and Liu Pan to act like this!"
"Shi Yuan, Ji Chang, Ma Zhong and Liu Pan arrested people on my orders!" Liu Cong put down the information in his hands, looked at Ma Liang and Pang Tong, and said lightly, "Don't you think you arrested them correctly?"
"No, Lord, those who really spread rumors and cause trouble should indeed be arrested, but some people"
"Who are some of these people? Those children of aristocratic families? I did not hold them accountable for allowing their children to surrender to Cao Cao, and did not touch their family property. As for those merchants, I made so many conditions that are beneficial to them to protect their safety and make them safe. They were assured of making money, but what did they do?¡±
After Liu Cong finished speaking, he threw the pieces of information on the desk to Pang Tong and Ma Liang, "Take a look!"
Pang Tong and Ma Liang carefully read the pieces of information, and there were huge beads of sweat on their foreheads.
"My lord, they are actually"
"You think that just Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang can make the entire Xiangyang City stormy in a few days. I have long thought that there must be people from Cao Cao and Jiangdong adding fuel to the fire, but the ghost soldiers and the Sky Eye still make me a little shocked!"
"Ghost soldiers and heavenly eyes?" Ma Liang was a little confused, "Lord, what on earth are these?"
"Does Shi Yuan ever know?"
"I only heard that they were the special operations camps of Cao Cao and Sun Quan, but I didn't expect that there were so many in Xiangyang City!"
"Ghost Soldiers is a special operation camp established by Guo Jia. In addition to gathering some information, it also conducts some assassination operations. The death of Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, has a lot to do with Ghost Soldiers. After Sun Ce was assassinated, Zhou Yu built the Sky Eye The battalion specializes in spying on intelligence and dealing with assassinations. It is precisely because they attach great importance to intelligence that they are invincible and invincible!"
"That's it!" Pang Tong nodded, "My lord has foresight and established the Skynet Camp in advance. This time we will catch them all, and we will be able to take the initiative in the future!"
"Ma Zhong did a good job, but the ghost soldiers and the Sky Eye have been built for many years, and they will never be caught in one fell swoop. This time they were too careless and suffered a big loss. They will definitely hide in the dark later."
"Lord, what about those people who were arrested?"
"Kill them all!"
Pang Tong and Ma Liang looked at each other and nodded. Since they were spies of Cao Cao and Sun Quan, they would not let him go.
"Ji Chang, Shi Yuan, you two take these evidences, bring a team of soldiers and horses, and go to these people's homes to meet with their family heads or relevant officials."
"My lord, do you want to kill all their families?" Ma Liang said worriedly.
"My lord, they may not know it!"
"Is it not a sin to be ignorant?" Liu Cong's voice was extremely cold, "I won't kill them, but they must atone for their sins!"
"What do you mean, lord?"
"Each family will give half of its property to atone for its sins, and officials with poor performance will be demoted to commoners!"
"No!"
"My lord, the children of the Kuai family and the Cai family are all collaterals. Do they sin against the main family?"
¡°You don¡¯t have to offend the master¡¯s family, but you still have to beat them!¡±
"I understand!"
?The actions of Liu Pan and Ma Zhong once made the people in Xiangyang City panic, but the heads of some of the arrested people were very dissatisfied and shouted.
Immediately afterwards, Pang Tong and Ma Liang began to act again. Not only did they kill those people with blood and thunder, they also led soldiers to their families.
When people were imagining a greater conflict between the family heads and Pang Tong and Ma Liang, they were surprised to find that this time they didn't move at all!
No, there should be. That is to hand over part of your property unconditionally and then start to rectify your family.
After a bloody storm, Xiangyang City finally calmed down, and no one dared to discuss it anymore. Of course, from the bottom of their hearts, they recognized Liu Cong. I have almost no impression of Liu Qi.
However, at this time, Liu Bei of Jiangxia, Sun Quan of Jiangdong, and Cao Cao of Xuchang once again started to make a big fuss against Liu Cong.
In Xuchang, Chen Lin wrote a denunciation letter directed at Liu Cong.
This article starts from when Liu Qi was a child. After Liu Qi¡¯s mother Chen died of illness, Liu Cong and his mother Cai began to bully Liu Qi. Cai Shi colluded with Cai Mao, tampered with Liu Biao's will, abolished the elders and established younger ones, and gave Jingzhou that should have belonged to Liu Qi to Liu Cong.
The emperor was wise and corrected the chaos, and made Liu Qi the governor of Jingzhou. But as soon as he arrived in Xiangyang, Liu Qi was killed by Liu Cong!
It is unfilial for a younger brother to kill his older brother! It is disloyal to kill an official of the imperial court! How can an unfaithful and unfilial person be the lord of Jingzhou?
Of course, it was impossible for this article to reach Xiangyang City, but after it spread to Xuchang, almost everyone in the north knew about it.
Therefore, Kong Rong, Xu Qian, Liu Zhen and others also wrote articles one after another to accuse Liu Cong of Xingshi.
Fortunately, Caihou paper was not popular during this period. The price of silk books was too expensive, the spread of bamboo slips was too slow, and oral communication was too slow.
However, there was no idle time in Xiangyang City. Wang Can wrote a masterpiece with great eloquence.
He and Chen Lin went head to head, enumerating Liu Cong's various achievements, and Ma Liang also stipulated that this article was a required part of the literary examination for selecting officials in Xiangyang. All of a sudden, all the scholars in Xiangyang City began to copy and recite it. Especially those heads of aristocratic families whose children were spies of Jiangdong and Cao Cao in the past, even forced their children to recite it.
"It's time to get some better paper!" Liu Cong said to himself while reading Wang Can's article copied on Cai Hou paper.
"Report to your lord, Yi Ji, Liu Xian, Han Song and others are asking to see you!" At this moment, a soldier hurriedly came in to report. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
