"Zhang Honggong."

"The end will be."

"Summons, ascend to the general."

"Yes."

On the day of the Wenju rebellion, Geng Ruqi, the governor of Shanxi, learned the news that the Wenju people were plotting to rebel.

After careful consideration, he decided to lead his troops to quell the rebellion first.

Otherwise, it will be too late when the news reaches back to the capital and then the holy decree arrives in Shanxi.

Zhang Honggong took the order and left, Geng Ruqi took a private letter in his hand and hesitated.

This private letter was sent by a large landlord around Yuxian, and this person is still his distant cousin, but there are few contacts.

The letter said that the displaced people in Yuxian County rebelled and gathered tens of thousands of people to wreak havoc in the township.

Geng Ruqi's mood was a little heavy, his Fubiao battalion only had more than 3,000 people, and even if the 5,000 Jin troops of the general soldier Zhang Honggong were added, there was still a gap compared with tens of thousands of displaced people.

In the governor's hall, Geng Ruqi sat at the head.

"You already know the situation in Shouyang and Yuxian City, right?"

Geng Ruqi finished talking about the situation in the two cities of Shouyang and Yuxian, and said to the full hall of officials.

"Hmph, just a few outcasts, a group of rabble, we and the elite division will be able to calm it down." Chief soldier Zhang Honggong said disdainfully.

"This is not true, although the displaced people are a rabble, tens of thousands of displaced people are still not to be underestimated."

"The situation in Yuxian County is unknown, and if you rush to send troops, I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

"It's the pole, it's the pole."

"Tens of thousands..."

As soon as Zhang Honggong, the chief soldier, finished speaking, there was a disagreement among the officials in the hall.

They don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and they all ignored the fact that the Wenju people were plotting to rebel.

They didn't talk about the Wenju people's conspiracy to rebel, they were waiting for Geng Ruqi to take the initiative to talk about the Wenju people.

For them, if they sent troops to attack Yuxian and suffered heavy losses, it was the responsibility of the governor, and if they did not attack Yuxian, the emperor would blame him, and the governor would take the blame.

They have nothing to fear.

The careful thinking of these people can't be hidden from Geng Ruqi, so he plans to lure them with profit, stabilize Shouyang City first, and then investigate the intelligence of Yuxian County from Shouyang.

"A small person dares to plot a rebellion, such a person's crime is unforgivable, this governor has an order, all the anti-thieves in Shouyang County, and all their family property, money, grain, and leather goods will be confiscated and handed over to the imperial court."

"Obey."

The officials in the hall took the order, and Geng Ruqi took a sip of a cup of tea.

Asking these people to fight the homeless people, they may not be so united, but let them arrest Wenju people and confiscate their family property will definitely be more positive than one another.

Geng Ruqi personally led more than 8,000 elite soldiers, set off from the governor's station, and headed towards Shouyang City.

An hour after Wang Zezhi left, Geng Ruqi arrived with 8,000 elite soldiers.

"Open the door, open the gates!"

"Who's coming?"

"Lord Geng, the governor of Shanxi, and Lord Zhang, the chief soldier, have come to capture the thieves who are plotting to rebel, and quickly open the city gate."

"The court is here! Quick, open the gates. ”

The old and weak at the city gate did not dare to delay at all, and quickly lined up to open the city gate.

"Your Excellency, please come in."

Geng Ruqi and Zhang Honggong rode tall horses and looked at the officers and soldiers defending the city standing on both sides with satisfaction.

"My lord, be careful!"

The vanguard looked at the neatly arranged corpses at the gate of the city and protected the two of them.

"What is there to fear about corpses? Get out of the way. ”

Zhang Honggong pushed away the soldiers on his side, dismounted and walked over to check.

"My lord, they're all dead."

Zhang Honggong came to Geng Ruqi's horse to report, Geng Ruqi looked around, and dismounted and came to the notice.

"Wen Juren conspired to rebel, Jin Yiwei..."

Geng Ruqi stroked his beard and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Do you know what's going on?" Geng Ruqi beckoned to a veteran.

Although this veteran was locked up, he was clever, and through the sound of guns and cannons at the city gate and Wang Zezhi's explanation, he guessed eight or nine.

"Back to my lord, the Wenju people plotted to rebel, and killed the county, the county, the main book, and the inspection, and the emperor specially punished the Jinyi guards to arrest them, and after a fierce battle, they killed one hundred and six thieves, and the Wenju people escaped.

Lord Jinyiwei went out of the city to arrest him, and specially ordered us to close the gate tightly to prevent the Wenju people from hiding in the city. ”

"I see."

Geng Ruqi bowed in the direction of the Forbidden City and said, "The emperor is wise. ”

"The emperor is wise."

Seeing this, the officials behind him also hurriedly agreed.

"Wenju people conspire to rebel, the crime is unforgivable, this governor has an order, and he will raid his house!"

"Obey."

The soldiers brought by Geng Ruqi took control of the city gate and entered the house of the Wenju people to loot it.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Wen Juren's home was thoroughly searched.

"My lord, in addition to a few hundred taels of loose silver, there are only some goods worth a thousand taels, and in addition to this, there are also the corpses of the magistrate, the county officer, the master book, the patrol inspector and others."

Zhang Honggong held the tooth cards of several people and handed them to Geng Ruqi, who casually glanced at them and threw them into the grass.

Geng Ruqi Wanli forty-four years of Jinshi, talented, well-read, and upright.

In the early years of the Apocalypse, he served in Fang Langzhong, and his daily affairs were eventful and orderly.

Later, he served as a senator in Shaanxi and a deputy envoy to Zunhua.

At that time, the governor asked him to submit a document to build the Wei Zhongxian Ancestral Hall, but Geng Ruqi resolutely refused.

The Chinese envoy hung the statue of Wei Zhongxian in the middle hall and led the officials to pay homage, but Geng Ruqi still did not obey.

He said, "My head can be broken, but my knees cannot be bent, and my ancestors were convicted of impeaching traitors. ”

Wei Zhongxian immediately ordered Geng Ruqi to be arrested, framed for 6,300 gold in stolen money, and set him to be beheaded after the autumn.

will be executed, Xizong collapsed, Sizong ascended the throne, and the traitor Wei Zhongxian subdued the law.

Geng Ruqi was pardoned and promoted to the post of Taifu Siqing, the right servant of the imperial history, and the governor of Shanxi.

Geng Ruqi is such a smart person, it is impossible to say that he doesn't know what Shouyang Zhixian and others do.

It's just that the network of relationships behind them is complicated and can't be moved easily, otherwise the civil officials of the entire Shanxi will be enemies of him, the governor.

"Shouyang Zhixian corpse vegetarian meal, Wenju people conspired to rebel, the county is difficult to escape the blame, the governor has an order, the county, the county, the main book, the inspection, for the official is not right, his family property is mostly the people's fat ointment, confiscate his family property, and hand it over to the imperial court.

The door of the county government was immediately opened, and the governor personally opened the court to try the case, and anyone who had grievances could beat the drum and voice their grievances. ”

"Obey."

Geng Ruqi is planning to do something to the magistrate and others, and he searched first, because these people themselves are not clean, and some incriminating evidence will be found no matter what.

The reason for the case was to grasp more evidence of their crimes, so that they could give an explanation to the imperial court.

Otherwise, even if he is the governor, he will be impeached by the civil officials in the court.

As for their family property, it will not really be handed over to the imperial court, and the interception will definitely be withheld, after all, the soldiers have not been paid food and salary for six months.

The soldiers received the order and quickly surrounded the mansion of the magistrate and others.

The family members of the magistrate and others had already received the news of Wenju's anti-murder, and at this moment the door of their house was closed, and the family members in the gathered mansion were guarding the gate.

These family members were all wealthy slaves, who were supported by a large amount of silver, brocade clothing, and food, and they advanced and retreated together with corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

At this moment, even if these people knew that the master was dead, they still did not have the slightest idea of betraying the Lord.

"On the orders of the governor, open the door quickly, otherwise there will be no forgiveness!"

The sergeants came to the prefect's mansion and shouted.

"Can't let them in, hold it for me."

Mrs. Zhixian commanded the family to stick to the courtyard.

"Stubborn, knock me out!"

The sergeants began to pound the gate of the prefectural mansion with siege wood in their arms.

"Hey~hey~hey~"

"Archery! Archery! ”

Mrs. Zhixian screamed in horror as she looked at the smashed and twisted door bolt.

"Shield!"

"Wow!"

The military formation, the dignified military formation, the sergeants raised their shields and easily blocked the arrows.

"The door is broken!"

The gate of the prefect's mansion shattered under the impact of the siege wood, and the sergeants poured in like a tidal wave.

For the sergeants who have been fighting all year round, killing these family members is like slaughtering a dog, but in a quarter of an hour, there is no longer a family member standing in the mansion.

Mrs. Zhixian was arrested and put in prison to wait for her to be released.

As for the mansions of several other people, the same thing happened.
