Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhang Mingwei sneered and asked, "What, don't you continue?" And then again, I'll listen! ”

The fool will continue to speak, and can only be trained with his head down.

Seeing this, Zhang Mingwei suddenly slapped the case suddenly, and shouted: "The hometown of sages and sages has a prosperous literary style, so they won't be traitors?" Do you dare to vouch for your head? ”

When the inspector heard this, he shrank his neck in fright, and asked him to take the head of the item as a guarantee, how could it be?

"Come on, come on, whoever takes the head guarantee of the item, I will give you face!" Seeing that he flinched, Zhang Mingwei looked at the other officials in Shandong and shouted coldly.

Naturally, who would dare to joke with their own lives?

The person in front of him, it was a southern expedition and a northern war, he was used to fighting, and he had great power, and it was estimated that it was a common thing to kill a person. Seeing that they didn't speak, even Zuo Maodi lowered his head, Zhang Mingwei sneered and continued to say sharply: "The reason why the eunuch Bingbi came to Shandong on the emperor's order is that the emperor has seen the evidence that the Confucian family in Shandong has changed their private fields into sacrificial fields to evade taxes, and the amount is very large. Now the civil uprising that started in Qufu, you dare to say that it was the official forcing the people to rebel? ”

Inside the big tent, there was silence.

The fact that private land was converted into sacrificial land to evade taxes was known to every official present and was really the most common thing. On the side of the Kong family, there must be one.

Therefore, no one dared to guarantee the Kong family's life.

Who hasn't studied hard for many years, crossed the single-plank bridge with thousands of troops, and only then did he have today's glory and wealth, and went to vouch for the Kong family, is it crazy?

Zhang Mingwei glanced at the faces of each of them, waited for a while, and no one spoke, so he continued to sneer and asked: "Now that the anti-thieves have killed officials and rebelled, and they are besieging Yanzhou Mansion, the momentum is huge, you say, the imperial court is just like that?" ”

It continued to be quiet, and no one spoke.

But this time, Zhang Mingwei did not let them go, and began to name them, starting with the officials of the three envoys with the highest official position in Shandong, and asked them one by one.

In the name of rebellion, in fact, the popular rebellion is a kind of rebellion, who dares to deny it? In this case, who dares to say forget it?

After getting a unanimous answer, Zhang Mingwei no longer cared about them, but loudly named them: "Li Guo, Gao Yigong, Hao Shaoqi, where is Yuan Zongdi?" ”

They were on both sides of the line, and immediately responded with their fists clenched and responded loudly: "The end will be!" ”

"You immediately lead the troops south to Yanzhou, if you don't surrender, you will be killed!" Zhang Mingwei ordered loudly, and his tone was murderous.

When those local officials in Shandong heard this, they were all silent, and no one dared to speak out.

"The last general obeys!" Li Guo and the others shouted in unison in response, and the aura of killing filled the big tent.

Zhang Mingwei glanced at these Shandong local officials, and then continued to order: "After the siege of Yanzhou is lifted, before I arrive, I will obey the orders of the eunuch Wang Erbiao, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, and there must be no mistake!" ”

"The last general obeys!"

In this response, Zuo Maodi looked up at Xingguo Gong, as if he had something to say.

Let Wang Erbiao take charge of the military, and the Qufu Kong family will probably be unlucky.

He wanted to remind him that the other party was a descendant of the Holy Duke of Yan, the Sage of Confucius, and he was afraid that it would be inappropriate to do so.

However, thinking of Xingguo Gong's words just now, he finally sighed in his heart and stopped talking, which was the result of the Kong family's own audacity.

Although on the surface, there seems to be no evidence to prove that the head of this popular uprising was instigated by the Confucian family. However, as a high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty, he will no longer look at the details, but look at the problem in a comprehensive way. It is natural to find that the people of Shandong are in turmoil, and the Kong family will definitely not be able to escape from it.

Subsequently, Li Guo and Gao Yigong took the military order out of the camp tent, and after not much work, they heard the sound of hooves like thunder and went away.

In the big tent, there was still silence, and no one dared to speak at this time.

In the end, it was Zhang Mingwei himself who broke this silence.

I heard him soften his tone a little, and said to Zuo Maodi: "I came to Shandong, in addition to suppressing the rebellion, to help you implement the new policy. I will continue to send troops to suppress rebellions in various places outside of Yanzhou Prefecture in Shandong. Your business, just as it is. It is best to have a preliminary result before next year's spring ploughing! ”

When Zuo Maodi heard this, he concentrated his thoughts, no longer cared about the affairs of the Kong family, and hurriedly nodded and agreed.

When Zhang Mingwei heard this, he turned his head to look at these local officials in Shandong, and shouted coldly: "I'm busy with the king's affairs now, and I'll settle accounts with you one by one after the matter is settled, and look at your performance!" ”

These officials who are in charge of the government in Shandong cannot all be removed at once, but can only be allowed to make meritorious contributions to their crimes, so that the implementation of Shandong's new policy can be completed as quickly as possible. Otherwise, just the turmoil in the officialdom and the appointment of new officials will be delayed for a year and a half at the speed of this era.

With the pressure of settling accounts after the autumn, Zhang Mingwei believes that they will never joke about their future. Even in the affairs of the Confucian family, in order to shirk their own guilt, they will change their position and become an official who proves the crimes of the Confucian family.

Dead friends don't die and poor things are also normal things in this era.

So, in this way, Zhang Mingwei did not lead his troops south to Yanzhou, but sat in the capital of Shandong, and Zuo Mao was the first to put down the rebellion in other places, and at the same time began to strongly promote the new policy.

However, Zhang Mingwei and Zuo Maodi still had a division of labor, and his focus was to sort out and renovate all the health posts in Shandong, mainly in the military aspect. Zuo Maodi is in terms of civil affairs, and he goes to deal with local tyrants.

Of course, if Zuo Maodi encounters resistance, Zhang Mingwei will intervene strongly.

………………

On the Yanzhou Mansion side, because the city is besieged, the news from the outside cannot be transmitted. Wang Erbiao worries every day, it is very haggard, and the eyes of the two pandas are hanging on their faces all day long, and they are about to turn into black lanterns.

He was looking forward to it day and night, hoping that the reaction from the Jingshi side would be faster.

But the more you care about the outcome of this kind of thing, the longer it will feel like time.

This terrifying taste is estimated to be unforgettable for Wang Erbiao in his life.

On this day, he seemed to be asleep, and suddenly, the Dongchang army at the head of the city rushed into the arrow tower with ecstasy, and shouted to him: "My lord, the imperial court has come to reinforce the army, it must be the imperial court to reinforce the army, we have been saved, we have been saved......

This voice was like giving Wang Erbiao a shot of chicken blood all of a sudden, and he suddenly saw him in high spirits, as if he had changed someone, and asked in surprise: "Where, where?" Haha, our family has finally come to an end! ”

The prefect and the garrison who were also in the arrow tower couldn't help but glance at each other, but they were not as excited as Wang Erbiao.

Wang Erbiao said as he rushed to the window.

"I haven't seen it yet!" The Dongchang fan hurriedly said, "But the thieves outside the city are scattering, and they must have heard the news that the imperial army is coming to relieve the siege!" ”

Wang Erbiao had already arrived at the window at this time, looked out, and sure enough, many thieves outside the city scattered one after another. Immediately, he was overjoyed and immediately burst out laughing.

The prefect of Yanzhou, who came to see it, also saw it, so he reminded Wang Erbiao: "It is also possible that Yan Shenggong sent someone to persuade them to disperse, after all, it is just a group of ordinary people!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Wang Erbiao was like a balloon bursting, and suddenly burst into a rage and said: "Bullshit, let your mother's bullshit go!" Are you a three-year-old child? ”

While scolding, he remembered that he had been frightened these days, and he became more and more angry, pointing at the prefect's nose and scolding again: "Killing an official is a rebellion, and speaking for a thief is an accomplice!" Don't think we don't know. What about the good things about the food king's Lu and loyalty to the king? All kinds of excuses, just this group of anti-thieves outside the city, what is the combat power? All kinds of shirks, immediately dispatched troops, and before the arrival of the imperial army, exterminated these rebels outside the city, is it difficult? ”

The Yanzhou Mansion garrison originally followed, and when they heard this, they hurriedly shrank into the arrow tower.

However, when Wang Erbiao saw it, he didn't spare him, and he also scolded him.

His Dongchang Fan Servant controls the Arrow Tower, and now there are a lot of thieves outside the city, there is such a good sign, and the grievances in his heart are somewhat vented.

Not to mention being an errand boy in the palace before, since he became the eunuch of the celebrant and the eunuch of Bingbi, he has never encountered such an experience. If you don't come back with revenge, will you still be a eunuch?

You must know that when you go to the local area, the people who come out of the palace represent the imperial power. Not to mention, he was ordered by the emperor.

Next, the situation is getting better day by day, and the thieves outside the city are fleeing every day.

Even if Wang Erbiao has never led troops to fight, according to his observations, it can be seen that the thieves outside the city are already panicking.

The prefect and garrison can naturally see that there is a high probability that the imperial court has sent troops. Therefore, the posture they originally maintained in front of Wang Erbiao is also getting softer day by day.

On this day, when Wang Erbiao was napping and squinting, suddenly a Dongchang official shouted loudly: "My lord, the imperial court reinforcements have arrived, the imperial court reinforcements have arrived, haha, we are safe......"

As soon as he heard this, Wang Erbiao jumped to the window to see the situation at an unprecedented speed, and saw that the thieves outside the city were all fleeing in all directions.

And in the distance of vision, the dust is flying, the red military uniform is particularly eye-catching, and the iron hooves are like thunder, rolling in and out.

The imperial court actually sent cavalry troops, and the number was huge, no wonder they could have arrived before the year.

"Hahaha......"

On the arrow tower, Wang Erbiao's hearty shrill laughter almost pierced the eardrums of the prefect of Yanzhou Mansion and the garrison.

About an hour later, Li Guo, Gao Yigong and others appeared on the arrow tower, saluted Wang Erbiao with their fists, and said loudly: "The last general is ordered by Guogong to come to relieve the siege, and obey the dispatch of the adults before Guogong arrives in Yanzhou!" ”

Wang Erbiao laughed when he heard this, and immediately turned his head to look in the direction of Qufu, his face showing a hideous expression.
