Li Hun finally had no courage to resist, so he obediently ordered his subordinates to open the door and let the imperial guards rush in. This made Mai Tiebang, who had been preparing for a long time, a little depressed. However, they issued various orders without hesitation. Soon, the seemingly impregnable Li's mansion completely lifted the power of resistance, which fully demonstrated that no matter how powerful aristocratic family was, they were fragile when facing the imperial power.

The arrest of Li Shanheng did not take much effort. Within one day, the Duke Shen, who had always been known as the first family of the Great Sui Dynasty, fell down. In addition to the servants, hundreds of people in the entire Li family were imprisoned. Many servants saw the head of the family being arrested, and they were like a tree falling and monkeys scattered, leaving clean.

The shock caused by Li Hun and his three uncles were arrested. It is conceivable that the shock caused in the capital was to be unbelievable when many officials heard the news. After confirmation, everyone took a breath and understood that from then on, the capital might be in a while. Many cautious officials immediately made up their minds to be low-key officials during this period, not seeking merit, but seeking no mistakes.

The emperor arrested Li Hun, Li Min, and Li Shanheng's reasons were clear. He conspired to set fire in the palace, created rumors, and caused scholars to besiege the Gongyuan. Yang Yong did not secretly add any charges to Li Hun's uncle and nephew. These three charges were enough.

If any crime was enough to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan in later generations, it was just now that the imperial examinations had just begun, all officials might not have taken too seriously the matter of leaking the exam questions, but the two charges of creating rumors that caused scholars to besiege the tribute court and conspiracy to set fire in the palace were no less expensive. Since ancient times, rumors have been caused by extremely serious incidents, and setting fire in the palace is no different from conspiracy.

The secret ward has never found out how the test questions were leaked. It was not until after the three uncles and nephews of Li Hun were put into prison, and the reason was found. It turned out that before the officials who gave the test paper entered the palace, Uncle Hun and nephews of Li Hun sold several officials who gave the test questions. After the questions were confirmed, several officials wrote the test questions on small wooden boards, put them in water, and flowed out of the palace along the sewers in the palace, and then picked them out of the palace.

This method is simple and easy to use, and is very easy to ignore. In order to prevent people from sneaking in, the sewers in the palace were installed with several heavy iron fences, but they could not prevent the cut thin wooden boards from flowing away. Otherwise, debris would often block the sewers. When Yang Yong received this news, he could only smile bitterly. This loophole could not be compensated. He could only learn from the lesson. To keep secrets in the future, people must be arranged in a place without sewers.

Although Li Hun committed such a big crime, there were many people who pleaded for Li Hun. After all, Li Hun finally stopped his horse and did not raise an army to resist. Among them were some old ministers like Gao Ying, Su Wei, and Li Delin. Yang Yong could not buy face from others. He always had to leave face for these old ministers. In the end, the Li family killed Li Hun, Li Min, and Li Shanheng, and the rest were all sentenced to exile in Luzon.

For Li Hun and his three uncles, Yang Yong could not pardon their death penalty no matter what. Yang Yong wanted to use their blood to warn those aristocratic families that secretly resisted the imperial examination. It is a general trend to pursue the imperial examination. No matter who dares to stop it, the emperor will be determined to eradicate it.

Luzon is now the farthest island that the Great Sui Navy can reach. The island is covered with forests and only some natives are active. At this time, no country was formed, but only tribal activities.

The Navy landed on the island in the second year of Daye, six years ago. Because the island was too large, it took the Navy more than half a year to survey the island and finally chose to land on the island in the later Malani area. Now, after six years of development, Luzon has a population of more than 10,000. In addition to this part of the Navy, 70% of these people are criminals exiled in court, and only 30% are ordinary people who actively immigrated.

This time, in addition to the hundreds of people exiled in the Duke of Shen in the capital, officials from the Li family were removed from office and frontlines, and thousands of people were exiled to Luzon until half a year later, the storm came to an end.

The emperor's actions scared many officials. Many people believed that if Gao Ying and others had not pleaded with each other, the Li family would have to be executed. Even if someone pleaded with him, Li Hun and his uncle and nephew were still killed, and the whole family would be exiled. Although it was not a matter of severing the incense, it was a question whether he could have the chance to enter the Central Plains again when he was exiled to Luzon Island.

Many people were afraid of Luzon's talk. In fact, with the conditions of Luzon, life is much easier than in China. The land is fertile, vast and sparsely populated, and the sun is abundant. As long as the crops are sown, there is a harvest, and even no labor is needed, you can survive by picking wild fruits. In order to encourage the people to immigrate, Yang Yong also ordered the government to provide free oxen and seeds, and to cultivate the fields they came with for ten years without taxation. Moreover, due to the frequent docking of the navy, it has become a base for the navy. Residents who voluntarily migrated have the opportunity to return to the Central Plains for free every five years.

Despite so many discounts, there are still few ordinary people willing to go to Luzon. For six years, there have been only a few hundred people who voluntarily migrate every year. After all, the hometown is hard to leave. Now the Sui Dynasty is in its thriving period. Many places in the south are still barren lands. There is a lot of land available for reclaiming in China. It is not that they cannot survive. Who would want to go abroad?

However, this situation has improved with the return of the first batch of residents who have passed the five-year period. These people are the first people to move over. Almost everyone has made a fortune. After returning, they feel like they are returning home in glory. Many people are also moved to see it. By this year, more than 1,000 people have voluntarily moved to Luzon.

It is very simple for those who have visited before to make a fortune. The land here is almost endless, and there is a naval base that requires a lot of material and excess material can be transported back by sea. Only if you can reclaim farmland, no matter what you plant, you don’t have to worry about not being able to buy it.

Moreover, safety is not a problem. Although there are many native tribes on the island, these native tribes are almost in their original state, with extremely simple tools. Many people use bone and wood weapons, relying on hunting and picking wild fruits to survive the sun. At first, these people are extremely unfriendly to the arrival of the Sui people. However, when they saw the sharp light weapons in the hands of the Sui army and the majestic iron armor, the unfriendliness of the native people suddenly became fear. They almost subconsciously knew that these people were not easy to mess with. The weapons in their hands were much sharper than the weapons made of stones and bones, and the iron armor on their bodies made their weapons helpless. Several tribes with no evil surnames attacked the Sui army and were devastatingly attacked the Sui army. The native people were even more frightened and far away from the gathering place of the Sui army.

In the first year, except for a few limited battles, there was almost no intersection between the Sui army, ordinary people and the natives. However, as time passed, some bold natives began to trade with the Sui people. They were curious about everything about these newcomers, from the clothes they wore, the tools they used, the weapons they used, the novel food in their hands, and the cultivated farmland...

The things that the natives could take out were nothing more than some animal skins, deer antlers and other things, while the things that the Sui people could take out were colorful, which led to very unfair transactions between the two parties. An axe, an iron pot, a small piece of cotton cloth, and silk usually had to be exchanged for more than a dozen animal skins and deer antlers in the hands of the natives. A good animal skin was transported back to the Central Plains, which was worth at least more than a dozen iron pots.

But the natives were rushing to exchange for such iron tools, which led to some natives not being able to get something to exchange and then simply exchanging it with labor. Many natives became half-slaves of the Sui people. In the fifth year, no one of the Sui people who came to Luzon first did not have more than a dozen native slaves, and it was difficult to talk to others when they went out.

With the help of the natives and the unlimited acquisitions of the navy, the ordinary Sui people quickly became rich. The ordinary Sui people who were determined to come overseas for the first time would most likely not have a good family background. When they returned to their hometowns, the stir caused can be imagined. Although the government propaganda was good in the past, there were no examples. Everyone was always half-believing. This time, seeing those who were far inferior to theirs, many people were also moved, and the migrants were almost the same as in previous years.

However, in the past, whether those who moved voluntarily or those who were sent to the court were almost all illiterate people and had no culture. Even if they are advanced than the natives now, they may have really become a wild land in the end. Once the natives unite, this big island may not belong to the Great Sui Dynasty.

This time, thousands of people were sent to court in half a year, including more than 50 of them, originally from the Longyou Li family, and hundreds of people read and read. The quality of these people can be said to be far better than before. Only when they arrived on the island could they spread the culture of the Great Sui Dynasty, assimilate the natives on the island, and ultimately make this island firmly become the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty.
