Chapter 581
"you……"
"Father, father, you have lived to such an old age, and you have lived enough."
"This time, let's give the hope of survival to the child, right?"
"Don't worry, when I get to the capital, I will definitely seek justice for our Duke Qing's Mansion."
"In the future, have more children. Bring honor to the Yan family."
"Be bigger and stronger and create greater glory!"
After saying this, Yan Ke prepared to leave with the "Red Book and Iron Certificate".
Yan Peng, who was pushed to the ground by him, said angrily: "You evil son."
"Without me, who are you?"
'bass.'
As soon as he finished speaking, the old but strong Duke Qing rushed towards his own son.
'Puff, puff.'
Just as they were fighting, when the guards surrendered their weapons, the sharp blades left on the ground pierced their backs.
"Uh……"
Feeling their lives slipping away, the Yan family father and son subconsciously turned their heads away.
Gao Teng, holding two swords, said with a ferocious smile on his face: "I have worked like a slave for your Yan family for so many years. Isn't it time to repay me?"
"Leave this chance of survival to me."
"You, you... ungrateful wolf."
'Bang.'
After saying this, the Yan family father and son fell to the ground.
'Plop.'
Gao Teng threw away his sword and immediately knelt before Xu Shan, holding the 'Red Book and Iron Certificate' in his hand. He said, "Xu, Master Xu, the golden medal of immunity from death is here with me."
"Also, besides, I will never go to the capital to file a complaint. As long as my lord can protect me, I will definitely follow your orders from now on."
'Pah.'
Hearing this, Xu Shan smiled and clapped his hands.
After slowly standing up, he said meaningfully: "Gao Zhifu, I am very pleased that you can turn back from your mistakes."
"But the red-lettered iron certificate was bestowed upon the Yan family by the late emperor."
"Your surname is Gao, so you should be buried in the Gao family's ancestral tomb."
'Sizzle.'
As Xu Shan finished speaking, Zhang Liansong, who had gained enlightenment, drew his sword.
'Plop.'
The next second, the 'Red Book and Iron Certificate' in Gao Teng's hand fell to the ground. He fell into a pool of blood with his eyes wide open.
‘Crack. ’
Xu Shan took a step forward and stepped on the "iron plate" and broke it.
"If this thing worked, the founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty wouldn't have died out!"
After saying that, Xu Shan turned to face his brothers, then spread his arms and said, "Dear brothers..."
"Copy the house!"
"Yes."
"First, smash the golden plaque of the Duke of Qing's Mansion in front of everyone."
"I want all the Jiangnan nobles to remember this night—how dare you confront the emperor's personal guards?"
"This is what happens."
"My lord, it's mighty!"
"Sir, domineering!"
This night was disastrous for the gentry in Suzhou Prefecture.
With the "ironclad evidence" in hand, Xu Shan searched several banks including Hu's and Jia's and found the tax silver that had been intercepted by them.
Furthermore, under the testimony of the shopkeepers of various businesses, it was confirmed that they had embezzled disaster relief grain and maliciously raised grain prices.
In some of the aristocratic families' mansions, they also found the magical tools of the Demon Sealing Clan, as well as their correspondence showing their collusion with the Japanese pirates.
Of course, this was just an 'excuse' to arrest them.
The real back-up plan is still ongoing.
The first ray of sunshine in the morning shines on the city of Suzhou!
The big commotion last night caused most of the people in the city to stay in their homes.
Even though things are calm now, only a few brave people go out cautiously to find out what's going on.
When they saw that many soldiers from Yingtian Prefecture who entered the city would rather sleep in the streets and alleys than disturb the people, they all felt incredible.
You know, before this, the official was someone you couldn't mess with here!
Carefully explore...
It was discovered that many noble families who had harmed the local area and bullied the market had all been sealed.
Even the Duke of Qing's Mansion and the Hu family, who enjoyed exclusive prosperity, had their golden plaques smashed.
"It's morning, it's morning."
"The sky of Suzhou City..."
"Bright!"
The people were overjoyed and told each other the news!
More and more people are pouring into the streets.
The soldiers of Yingtian Prefecture, led by Wu Shanhe, only maintained order in the city after they stood up.
The navy under the Inspection Department began their baptism of public opinion.
In an instant, Xu Shan, who was not afraid of power and investigated corrupt officials and aristocratic families in Suzhou Prefecture, was deified.
