Song Ci continued: "Song can assure you that Song has never done anything bad, folks, Song has been a criminal officer for 20 years, and he has been in Lanzhu County for 10 years, in these ten years, which of you has been oppressed by Song?"

A rugged-looking middle-aged man walked out, the firewood knife in his hand fell to the ground, and when he looked at Song Ci, he was full of tears.

"Lord Song, we don't mean to be enemies of the imperial court, we want to be enemies of the entire Great Song Dynasty, what is the current situation in Lanzhu County, we believe that Lord Song already knows."

"Not long ago, there was a village, more than 100 of them were killed, Lord Song, and the court came down to tell them that these people committed suicide,..... Do you think the people will believe it?"

Song Ci was silent, he knew about it, but he didn't know how to answer the other party. The man continued: "My lord, you also know about this matter, the matter has passed, but recently, in the county town, there is another group of people wearing official uniforms who do all kinds of evil, they burn, kill, loot and do all kinds of evil, compared to bandits, more hateful than real thieves.

"You said this group of people just grabbed something, but.... But they still want to kill people in the streets, and many innocent people have been killed, Lord Song, do you think the people can accept it?"

Jiao Fei said: "The official already knows about this matter, and I am also investigating, but the number of the other party is large, and at the same time, the official who has come and gone without a trace is also a headache."

"At the same time, folks, this official and Lord Song can guarantee that these people are by no means from the military camp and the yamen, if this official says a word of nonsense, he is willing to be destroyed by heaven and earth."

Song Ci also said: "What Jiao Zhixian said is completely reasonable, I have been waiting in Guangnan East Road for ten years, and I have never taken a stitch from the people, and Song Ci is worthy of his conscience."

In this group of anti-thieves, everyone talked about it, they didn't want to be enemies of Song Ci at all, nor did they want to be enemies of Jiao Fei, the magistrate.

But what happened recently made them angry, and if they didn't ask for an explanation, they couldn't be angry in their hearts.

An older man walked out, and he arched his hand and said, "Lord Song, Jiaozhi County, the old man knows that what you said is true, because ah, the old man, I have already heard the accent of this group of people, and they are not locals at all, so it can be seen that it has nothing to do with our local area."

Song Ci breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't put the blame on himself.

At the same time, he also had a bold idea in his heart, that is, could he trick this group of people into going to Lin'an and go directly to the city gate to demonstrate? In this way, things will probably be easier to do!

As long as the number of them reaches a certain level, it should not be difficult to forcibly break into this Lin'an City, and at that time, this Jia Yidao and Prime Minister Liu want to stop it, and they may not be able to do it.

Thinking of this, Song Ci said: "Fellow villagers, Song understands you very well, and sympathizes with you very much, about the recent incident in Lanzhu County, Song already knows who it is, it is nothing more than the uncle of the dynasty and Prime Minister Liu, but Song is powerless to put them on the board."

Someone said: "Lord Song, you can mention the criminal officer, and you have also been the director of the criminal department, don't you dare to investigate these two people?" Didn't Emperor Lizong give you the right to cut first and then play?"

Song Ci shook his head helplessly, these are just ordinary officials, with the identity and status of Jia Nidao and Prime Minister Liu, I am afraid that he will be taken down before he gets close to them, and this is the case.

It's not that he doesn't want to deal with these two people, but he really can't do it, there are countless people in the officialdom of the entire Great Song Dynasty who want to protect them, or prevent themselves from doing them, Song Lizong and Jia Guifei alone will not agree.

"Folks, there is nothing Song can do about this, but at this moment, Song can give you a note, I don't know if you are willing to listen?"

"Lord Song, if you have something to say, as long as you can bring down these two people, we will not hesitate to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire.

Jiao Fei also looked at it, "Song Tixing, if you have something to say, even if the lower officials can do it, then they will not hesitate." ”

Song Ci paused, but also said what he thought in his heart.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in fact, there is nothing else, it is nothing more than that Song wants you to go to Lin'an, to find Emperor Lizong outside the palace gate, I think, as long as your number reaches a certain point, no matter who it is, it will not be able to stop you!"

"At the same time, your best request is to see the Queen Mother, so that the odds will be greater, what do you think?"

The crowd looked at each other and talked incessantly, and they felt that it was very reasonable, and as long as they did it, it was very likely to succeed.

Jiao Fei said: "Lord Song, isn't this move encouraging them to come nonsense?" In case of being punished, I am afraid that you and I will not be able to escape the responsibility, if Emperor Lizong is convicted, then we don't talk about the future, maybe we will lose our heads. ”

Qin Xiaoyue said: "Yes, my lord, you should measure it again, this matter should not be careless, I think what Jiao Zhixian said is very reasonable."

Song Ci was resolute, he had already decided that no one could stop this matter, and this was the only way.

At the same time, the people's anger here has become more and more great, and now unless the murderer is beheaded, these people will continue like this for a long time, and even the entire Quang Nam East Road will be in chaos.

This is also a helpless move, but if there is still a little idea, Song Ci will not make such a decision.

"Jiao Zhixian, Song Mou told you so, you and I can't calm the anger of these people at present, and we can't contact Emperor Lizong, I said, if their team continues to grow and the people's grievances become deeper and deeper, we will have no choice at that time, do you know?"

Jiao Fei was silent, he knew that what Song Ci said was reasonable.

"And Ah Jiaozhi County, once the gaffe reaches the point of irreparability at that time, we will not be able to explain it to the imperial court, so Song feels that it can only be like this, what do you think?"

Jiao Fei nodded, at this moment he finally agreed, yes, now there is no other way, the matter has reached the point where it must be solved.

Song Ci continued: "Fellow villagers, I hope you will recruit troops all the way to Lin'an, they are all people who have been oppressed, and even the emperor does not dare to ignore you when there are so many of you."

"As for these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, Song thinks that you can see one and kill another, because the law does not hold the public accountable, and at the same time, at least after determining that the other party is a corrupt official, otherwise you may kill innocents.

Everyone felt justified and nodded their heads.

Song Ci continued; "This place is more than 1,000 miles away from Lin'an, and it may take ten days to walk along the way, and food along the way has become a problem."

Song Ci turned to look at Lu Sheng Renyou, "You two, immediately go to the barracks to prepare 100,000 catties of rice, 100,000 catties of vegetables, and equip twenty carriages at the same time, and then give them to the villagers."

"Yes." The two ran in.

The things that should be explained have been explained, and Song Ci has expectations in his heart, looking forward to a perfect solution this time.

Jia Rudao and the prime minister are really going to be dealt with, and none of them can be left.

In the crowd, they originally had a lot of angry shouts about Song Ci, but they were finally dispelled at this moment, and everyone also saw that this matter was done by Lin'an's dog official, and it had nothing to do with Song Ci.

Half an hour later, they were on the road, carrying twenty carts of food, and slowly walking on the road to Lin'an.

Song Ci and Jiao Fei had no bottom in their hearts, but there was no other way to do it, the matter had reached this point, and it was difficult to solve it.

However, both of them prepared for the worst, that is, this group of people were all blocked outside the city gate, and then Song Lizong was condemned, and he was either demoted or imprisoned in Dalao.

At the same time, on the Jiangzhou side, this group of rebellious people were all killed by Jia Yidao, and it was very cruel to leave no one alive, and the cruelty of the methods was outrageous.

At the same time, the four gates were also closed, and no entry or exit was allowed, and anyone who tried to break through was beaten violently at least and lost his life at worst.

These people are really bitter, their anger against the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty has never been so great, they originally wanted to continue the uprising, but when they thought of the fate of those people before, they finally didn't have the courage at this moment.

In the yamen, Jia Rudao was overjoyed, he knew that he had made great contributions and exterminated hundreds of thieves, once Song Lizong and the Queen Mother knew, then he would designate a prize.

"Come on, pass on my order to Jia Ye, and immediately write an excerpt to my brother-in-law, Emperor Lizong, and tell him that Jia Ye and I have exterminated thousands of thieves here in Jiangzhou. Zhang Dadao: "Okay Uncle Guo, I'll do it now, we don't seem to have encircled and suppressed so many anti-thieves, Jia Ye, if the emperor knows about it, do you think he will not."

"Could it be anything?" Jia Rudao said indifferently: "Jia Ye, I am an official in Jiangzhou alone, I said how many people I killed is how many people I killed, can my brother-in-law know?" Besides, do you think he's going to come down and investigate me for this?"

"Okay Master Jia, let's do it immediately, anyway, about this matter about encirclement and suppression, I can't wait until I finish it, this time as long as this excerpt is played, Emperor Lizong should be happy!"

"It's not Jia Ye, this time, we are famous in Jiangzhou, once the emperor is happy, maybe he can still promote Jia Ye, don't you say?"

Jia Rudao raised his eyebrows, and said very arrogantly: "Hehe, isn't it just a promotion?" Actually, Jia Ye, I really don't care, what I care about is silver, only silver can make me very happy, only silver can make me very happy. ”

"By the way, Wang Sizhangda, it is best for the two of you to write on the fold, let my brother-in-law allocate some silver, and say that there is no money to eat here in Jiangzhou, and the yamen disaster relief has eaten up all the silver and grain."

"It's Jia Ye." They immediately went out and went about their work.

At the same time, here in Lanzhu County, the number of people organized by this group of ordinary people has expanded, and there are already thousands of people twenty miles out of the county seat, all of whom have been spontaneously organized by the local people, which is very powerful.
