Chapter 777: Anger
Before Feng Wengui left, Chen Xiaoting asked him again.
Roughly speaking, only the three families of Liang Zhang and Du are under house arrest, and the three mansions are only allowed to enter and not to leave.
The tension outside must be transmitted to the three families in order to put pressure on the three families and force them to give in.
In this way, they are powerless in the face of the general situation outside, which will only make their sense of urgency worse.
At this moment, Feng Wengui was pulled into a boat by Chen Xiaoting, and he would naturally strictly implement it.
For Feng Wengui, the most useful thing in Chen Xiaoting's words was the guarantee.
After the taxes of the wealthy families come up, they will not blame him for his previous mistakes, which is Feng Wengui's only hope to break the situation.
And this hope, only Chen Xiaoting can give it to him, but those wealthy families can't give it.
So, Feng Wengui immediately ordered all the people to rush to the remaining three families, and at the same time went to several neighboring mansions to send orders to draw people from the hundreds of households below.
It can be said that in order to protect himself, Feng Wengui is very desperate.
Soon Feng Wengui sent people to surround the rest of the Shen Mansion, once he had to do one thing with his heart, he could play the greatest role of the hundred households below the general banner.
This is also why, Chen Xiaoting has never bypassed Feng Wengui's orders, and the other party has sat in the position of a thousand households for so many years, so he naturally has his own unique side.
At this moment, in the Liang Mansion, Liang Jirong was lying on the couch, his chest was undulating, he was angry.
"Chen Xiaoting, bastard!" Liang Jirong scolded bitterly.
Guarding the couch was the maidservant who took care of him, and when she heard the head of the house scolding so angrily, she trembled with fear.
"Is this guy really crazy? If the southeast is unstable, the Ming Dynasty will really collapse, and he will be the real national thief! Liang Jirong continued to scold.
Even Tian Yuxuan, the guy who knocked on the bones and sucked the marrow, didn't dare to do anything to their four major families, Chen Xiaoting really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall.
After taking a deep breath for a while, Liang Jirong called the housekeeper in and instructed him to send someone out overnight to spread the word.
In fact, Liang Jirong still doesn't know that all the people he sent out before were sent to Jinyiwei Prison.
Of course, compared to the corpses thrown back by the Tan family, Chen Xiaoting treated the Liang family a lot more favorably.
This scene in the Liang Mansion is also being staged in the Zhang family and the Du family.
And Du Zhaoyu, who had the most hot temper, even scolded the Jinyi Wei Baihu who enforced martial law, and finally Feng Wengui was present in person to calm the scene.
Under Chen Xiaoting's thunderous means, in just one day, he put the core members of the four major families in Jiangnan under house arrest.
Because the information was relatively lagging behind, the other major families couldn't figure out the situation for a short time, and they were leaderless in a short period of time, so they naturally couldn't cope with Chen Xiaoting's offensive.
And before they regrouped, Niu Jingyun, who Chen Xiaoting sent to spread the rumors, would destroy their basic plate again, and then these people would really be unable to fight back.
Of course, even if this is done, it does not mean that Chen Xiaoting has won, and then it is a competition of perseverance between the two.
If Chen Xiaoting is not aggressive enough, then these people will keep dragging them down, and Chen Xiaoting will be finished at that time.
It can also be seen from this that the errand assigned to him by the emperor was quite arduous.
When the four major families were under house arrest and the other wealthy families were in a mess, the two bigwigs in Jiangnan were also in a hurry.
The first to be unbearable was Cui Bangdao, after receiving the news at noon, he rushed directly to the political envoy's yamen, to discuss countermeasures with Yao Fengan.
As magistrates, they are deeply involved with the local wealthy families, and they even deliberately let them go against taxation.
Therefore, once the interests of these people in the Jiangnan Hao clan are damaged, they will definitely be sold by these people.
After all, if they receive the money but don't get it done, people naturally hate them.
This is also why, in the case of Tian Yuanxi's assassination, they wanted to close the case as soon as possible, because they didn't want to have long nights and dreams and cause trouble for these wealthy families.
"Tell me, what's this?" Cui Bangdao roared angrily and slapped the teacup in his hand to the ground.
With a snap, the teacup turned into fragments, and the tea inside splashed everywhere.
After all, this is his own yamen, Yao Fengan was even more upset when he saw this scene, and immediately said: "Just talk, what kind of face do you throw in me?" Could it be that this cup irritates you? ”
Cui Bangdao's face was pale, and he was usually very friendly with Yao Fengan, but at this time he couldn't help his temper.
I only heard him say angrily: "At this time, you still care about a cup? If Chen Xiaoting continues to do this nonsense, we will both be almost the same as this cup!"
Cui Bangdao was telling the truth, Yao Fengan was also in a hurry at this time, but he didn't have any good way.
"Let's talk, Chen Xiaoting won't listen, this thing is not easy to do!" Yao Fengan said nonsense.
Cui Bangdao slapped the table, then got up and said, "You want me to say...... Simply transfer troops from my Yamen and directly blast Chen Xiaoting's people away! ”
As the procurator in charge of prison proceedings, the total number of officers can still be transferred to the fifty or sixty servants.
But his method can be said to be messing around, which will only make the situation worse, which makes Yao Fengan very angry.
So Yao Fengan couldn't help but be angry and said: "If you do this, he Chen Xiaoting will dare to put you in prison directly!" ”
This is not a joke, because of Jinyiwei's unique status, he can directly rely on rebellion when he does something to them.
"If you go to prison, you will go to prison, it's better than sitting here and getting angry!" Cui Bangdao sat back in his seat.
Because he understands his temperament, Yao Fengan did not continue to add fuel to the fire, and now the focus is on solving the problem.
Seeing that Yao Fengan didn't speak, Cui Bangdao spoke again: "Are we just sitting here?" You've got to figure it out! ”
Yao Fengan didn't answer, but fell into deep thought, and then Cui Bangdao didn't bother him, and he also thought about countermeasures.
After a while, I heard Yao Fengan say: "There is a way to stop Chen Xiaoting!" ”
Cui Bangdao immediately put away his thoughts, and then asked, "What way?" ”
"In this Jiangnan, there is only one person who can stop Chen Xiaoting now!"
"Who?" Cui Bangdao hurriedly asked.
"Governor Wu!" Yao Fengan replied.
"He'll help us?" Cui Bangdao asked suspiciously.
Yao Fengan shook his head and said, "Although he won't help us, he will help himself!" ”
"What is the most important thing to Governor Wu? It is the situation in the land of the two rivers that is stable, so that he can fight against the Japanese with peace of mind! ”
Cui Bangdao also agreed with this, so Yao Fengan persuaded him.
"Now that Chen Xiaoting is doing something to the four major families, this is something that has never happened before, it will inevitably make the situation in Jiangnan turbulent, can Governor Wu watch him come nonsense?" The more Yao Fengan spoke, the more confident he became.
"So what are you waiting for? While Governor Wu is still in the Yamen, let's go and explain the stakes to him! Cui Bangdao stood up and said, he couldn't wait.
"Alright, let's go!" Yao Fengan nodded.
But in the depths of his eyebrows, there was a faint hint of melancholy, last time they tried to drag Wu Guorui into the water but didn't succeed, will it definitely be possible this time?
Although Yao Fengan thinks that the logic just now is very reasonable, whether Wu Guorui will follow his logic is another question.
Of course, no matter what Wu Guorui thinks, the two of them have to go over this time, because this is the only way they have come up with.
