Why did Wang Yuan leave Yanzhou halfway?

Because Linqing is in chaos!

Thousands of people gathered at the construction site to prevent the workers from digging the reservoir. The prefect of Linqing, the prefect of Linxi, and the transport army in the section of the Linqing River did not dare to take care of it for fear of provoking a popular uprising - Liang Xi, the general of Caoyun, was transferring the transport army from Jining, and was obviously ready to suppress it by force at any time.

Wang Yuan hurried back, scolding with a slap on his face: "What are you doing in Zhizhou?" I've long been on your way to prevent someone from taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble! ”

Ma Lun complained bitterly: "Master Wang, you can't guard against it." This is a person with ill intentions, secretly spreading rumors and causing trouble, saying that the reservoir is hundreds of miles in radius and will be used to discharge floods in the future. The people on both sides of the river, all the land was forcibly expropriated, and the whole family was registered in the army. The jurisdiction of Linqing Prefecture is so big, and the rumors are so insidious, where can I prevent it? ”

"Then have you found out who is spreading rumors?" Wang Yuan asked again.

Ma Lun still looks unlucky: "Thousands of people gathered together, and they didn't dare to act rashly, for fear that if they didn't pay attention, they would provoke a civil uprising." ”

"Rubbish!" Wang Yuan wanted to cut this person with a knife.

The eunuch Li Xing sneered: "Who else can there be?" It was nothing more than the instigation of the three families of Lu, Liu, and Xing, and they were occupied with the most fertile land. ”

Xing Tai, who had already worshipped Wang Yuan as his teacher, hurriedly defended: "Sir, it can't be my Xing family!" ”

Shen Fuxuan has already returned to Jining, and as the judge of Jining Prefecture, he can't leave the jurisdiction for a long time, but just come to deliver the news.

Wang Yangming also did not come for the time being, and his father Wang Hua was seriously ill and couldn't leave for a while.

The reservoir excavation project could only be handed over to the eldest disciple Wang Wensu to supervise the construction, so that the officials of Linqing Prefecture could fully cooperate.

Obviously, Wang Wensu can't hold back, and those officials always obey the yang and the yin.

In addition, Wang Yuan's project budget was done in detail, and he also asked his disciples to check the accounts every day, which did not leave too much dirty space for the officials, which caused these guys to be very inactive.

Thousands of people gathered to make trouble, and the officials actually watched the excitement, and even the governor couldn't command them!

Wang Yuan rode a fast horse to the construction site and found that thousands of people were helping the old and the young, and actually built a shack on the construction site to live. Anyway, this is the slack season, and they have nothing to do at home, so they stay on the construction site.

"Sir, the disciple has a heavy trust!" Wang Wensu blamed himself incomparably.

Wang Yuan reassured: "It's not easy for you, you're almost fifty years old, and you still blow cold wind on the construction site all day long." I've never been in charge of such a big thing before, and I don't have a lot of people under my hands who can call on me. ”

The project was divided into several parts, and the largest number of people dug the reservoir were in charge, and Wang Wensu, a disciple, was in charge.

In addition, there are people who dig canals to connect the reservoir with the river, and the disciple Bao Chaozhen is in charge.

The professional demand for the rolling dam is the highest, and the old eunuch Li Xing is in charge.

Zhizhou Ma Lun is responsible for logistics, and liaising and pacifying the locality.

In addition, Liang Xi sent 200 troops to help maintain law and order, and the rest of the troops were responsible for transporting grain from the land to the north.

Wang Yuan gathered all the 200 troops and said to Wang Wensu: "Order to start!" ”

The workers are all cash-for-work victims, and whoever gives them food will do things for whomever they want. But that's all, in the face of the mob disturbance, they all chose to hide far away.

At this moment, Wang Wensu ordered the start of construction, and as soon as the victims picked up their hoes and flat burdens, thousands of troublemakers came out of their shacks.

Wang Yuan rode alone, blocking thousands of people, and asked, "The leader comes out to speak!" ”

No one answered, just silently formed a human wall.

Wang Yuan sneered: "Liang Xi, the general of Caoyun, has already gone to Jining to mobilize the transport army. Within two days, the officers and soldiers arrived, but they had to speak with knives! ”

Hearing this, the human wall formed by the people panicked.

Wang Yuan said again: "My name is Wang Yuan, the people in the rivers and lakes call me 'Wang Erlang', and the thieves call me 'the champion of killing blanks'." Last year, I led 200 cavalry, and I dared to rush against 10,000 thieves and kill them to the ground. Are you thousands enough for me to kill? ”

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

The people were even more panicked, and some were already planning to flee.

Wang Yuan said: "You came to make trouble, it is nothing more than listening to rumors, the king (Wang Wensu) has explained countless times, but you can't listen to it." I won't explain it anymore and I'll wait here for a moment. Soldiers of the army, follow me to the road house! ”

Ma Lun hurriedly asked: "What is Master Wang doing with the troops to the Lu family?" ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Evil words confuse the public, of course it is a raid!" ”

Ma Lun was shocked: "It doesn't have to be the Lu family spreading rumors, it may be someone else." ”

Wang Yuan said disdainfully: "I care about it so much, do I still have to slowly arrest people for interrogation?" If you delay the construction period for one day, you will have to spend a lot of food, and if you don't complete it before the spring water rises, it will be even more troublesome at that time! ”

Of the three major families that were occupied, the Liu family had a general, and he was quite powerful in the local guard. The Xing family has a national prisoner, and there is also a showman who worships Wang Yuan. These two are not easy to do, so let's just take the Lu family, who let them only know how to farm and do business?

Moreover, these three major families are not wronged by any of them.

They were able to accumulate land and property quickly, mainly by relying on floods over the years, colluding with the government to encroach on the land of the victims, and I don't know how many people went bankrupt.

Seeing that Wang Yuan directly took 200 troops to the Lu family to raid the house, someone suddenly shouted: "The government is going to kill people, if you kill the Lu family, you will come back and kill us!" ”

"Huh."

Wang Yuan sneered when he heard this, and sure enough, the Lu family was playing tricks behind it.

In all likelihood, all three are involved. However, Wang Yuan only needs to copy the Lu family to get things done.

Among the crowd, there are still many people who are inciting the people to make trouble.

Wang Yuan did not leave for the time being, commanded tens of thousands of migrant workers to surround these thousands of people, and ordered: "Give Lao Tzu a good look at them, if anyone dares to violently resist the law, you will take a hoe and a flat shoulder to suppress it." I can be responsible for killing them, if you let them mess around, your future relief food will be gone, and I will go back to my hometown to eat dirt! ”

Wang Yuan asked again: "Among the soap officials, can there be people from the Lu family?" ”

The manpower brought by Wang Yuan is insufficient, so it is inevitable to rely on local officials to do things, and there are more than 20 Linqing officials at the construction site on this side of the reservoir.

Wang Wensu has already registered and made, and reached: "There are three people surnamed Lu." ”

"Get it out!" Wang Yuan shouted.

Wang Wensu immediately took the Yun army to arrest people and quickly brought them to Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan asked, "You are all from the Linxi Lu clan?" ”

A clerk was shocked and said: "Master Wang, although my surname is Lu, I am not a disciple of the Linxi Lu clan. ”

"That's none of your business, step aside." Wang Yuan said with a smile.

The remaining two Lu family members did not know why, and knelt there trembling.

Wang Yuan pulled out his sword and said loudly: "This is the emperor's imperial gift of Shangfang sword, officials below the sixth grade, you can cut it first and then play!" ”

Zhizhou Ma Lun doesn't matter, he is from the fifth grade. But the Tongzhi and the state judge who came with him were so frightened that their necks shrunk, they could be hacked to death on the spot by this sword.

The construction period was tight and had to be completed before the spring rain fell, so Wang Yuan didn't have so much time to deal with it slowly.

You have to cut through the mess quickly!

Wang Yuan walked up to the two soap officials surnamed Lu and sighed: "Alas, it's only your bad life. ”

The two were terrified, and before they had time to beg for mercy, they saw two sword lights flashing, and Wang Yuan had already wiped their necks.

One of them was not dead on the spot, clutching his throat and struggling, blood gushing from between his mouth and fingers.

Wang Yuan turned over his horse and said to the two hundred troops: "Follow me to raid the house!" ”

Everyone was stunned on the spot, stupidly looking at the dying person, like a chicken that has not been killed!

Thousands of troublemakers began to retreat, and after a short time, they all left.

Wang Yuan led his troops to the ancestral house of the Lu family and found that it was actually a tulou, which was equivalent to a reduced and simplified version of the dock fort.

The ancestors of the Lu family were big officials in the Yuan Dynasty, and in the chaotic times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Shandong was in chaos, and it is estimated that they also relied on this kind of tulou to keep the family business.

Wang Yuan shouted: "All the people in the tulou will come out within a quarter of an hour, and if anyone does not obey the order, they will be punished as a crime of treason!" ”

Wang Yuan came at full speed, and the Lu family had not received the news yet, but they didn't dare to open the door directly after seeing this battle.

A middle-aged man hung down the basket and asked, "Why did Master Wang lead the troops here?" ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "A few days ago, I came with good intentions to discuss with you about the compensation for the land occupation. Since you don't accept kindness, toast and don't eat and drink, then I can only bring the troops! Go back and tell your master that if you don't open the door today, tomorrow will be a big army attacking the building, and all of them will be punished for treason. Yi three clans! ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Master Wang is serious, how can our Lu family rebel." ”

Wang Yuan said: "That maybe. I received a report that when the thieves crossed the border last year, you sent food to the thieves. Otherwise, why are many counties in Shandong being attacked by anti-thieves, and your Lujia Tulou is still good? ”

If you want to add sin, there is no excuse.

The middle-aged man had to go back, and after a while, the door of the tulou opened, and the patriarch of the Lu family personally came out on crutches to greet him.

"Don't open the door, they're going to raid the house!" Someone from the rear rushed back and shouted.

Wang Yuan didn't want to kill people anymore, but when he heard this, he hacked the Lu clan patriarch to death with a sword, and shouted: "All of them will be captured, if there is resistance, kill them!" ”

The 200 Yun Army, in the face of the anti-thieves, could only escape, but at this moment they rushed into the tulou like a wolf.

The military discipline of these transport troops is really unbearable, and they take the opportunity to hide their property and not to mention, there are still people who want to insult women, and it is only a rule to be hacked to death by Wang Yuan with a sword.

The Linxi Road family, which has flourished since the Yuan Dynasty, has been destroyed.

The men were assigned to the garrison, and the women were sent to the Faculty Division. The house slaves with bad deeds were exiled with their masters, but the other house slaves could get a share of the land and property left by the Lu family.

The sum of various industries is equivalent to more than 30,000 taels of silver, which is not counting the land that Wang Yuan gave to those domestic slaves.

You can save a lot of money for the project.

Will the Daoyan official impeach Wang Yuan for this?

No!

Because Wang Yuan is for the Caoyun project, and Caoyun is the foundation of the country, who dares to talk nonsense?

Not to mention that Wang Yuan only copied one family, that is, he copied the Xing family and the Liu family together, which is also merit and innocence!
