Chapter 202
Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the people, the cavalry couldn't help but look at the hundred households leading the team. The hundred households gritted their teeth and strangled the horse's head. Everyone also slowed down suddenly, the ** horse was strangled in pain, looking up to the sky and roaring, just a foot away from the people, Kankan stopped his steps, and the horse's hooves couldn't help but kick again in the farmland.
The old man who was the first to protect the seedlings reached out to cover his daughter's eyes, hugged her tightly, and looked at the cavalry in front of him unwillingly.
"These people! Someone openly shouted the opposite just now! Zhang Liangzhi of Jiande County stomped his feet fiercely, and pulled Ma Yuandao, the prefect of Hangzhou who was wearing a four-grade official mansion with a serious expression.
Ma Yuan's pupils immediately dilated: "Who?" Who shouted the opposite? ”
"Humble duty see clearly! That's him! Chang Yuminyao, the magistrate of Chun'an County, pointed at the strong man and said, "It's him!" I shouted the opposite just now! ”
"Good! Very good! Grab it! Ma Yuan gave an order to the officials behind him, and the officials looked at each other, picked up the chains and the ring ruler and rushed up.
Where are the people who are the opponents of these fierce and vicious servants? Soon the strong man and more than a dozen people were tied up and dragged over by the iron chain, and he struggled violently unwillingly, but it was a pity that how did he break free from the iron rope? After a short time, he was dragged in front of several officials in Ma Yuan.
"Who shouted the other way just now?" Ma Yuan looked at him coldly, and squeezed out this sentence from the root of his teeth.
"It's Lao Tzu! How are you staying?! The strong man was not timid, his strong muscles trembled, and the corners of Ma Yuan's eyes trembled.
"No arrests! No arrests! The people on the embankment all ran down and surrounded Ma Yuan's officials and officials. Zhang Liangzhi's face showed a hint of timidity, he secretly glanced at Chang Yumin, and Chang Yumin also quietly wiped the cold sweat on his head. Although there are soldiers here, if the people really turn against them, one of these officials will not be able to escape.
"This Futai is standing here now, I think which of you dares to mess around?!" Ma Yuan is not tall, his body is thin, and he looks like a scholar, but he is such a scholar with small arms and legs, but he stands tall among the people.
The people fell silent.
"Changing rice to mulberry is a national policy! If you don't want to change it yourself, you can sell it to someone else to change! Isn't the yield of mulberry fields as high as those of farmland? I don't understand, such a great good thing, good for the country, good for you, why can't you change it today and openly gather people to fight! What do you want to do? Not only must it be changed, even if all the people of Zhejiang die, it must be changed! Ma Yuan yelled at the crowd, his neck and face flushed.
"What's your name?" He suddenly turned his head to look at the strong man.
“…… If you don't change your name, you don't change your surname, Lao Tzu is called Wang Da Niu! The strong man continued to struggle, staring at the bull's eyes and saying loudly, he didn't pay any attention to these officials.
"What do you do for a living?" Ma Yuan's voice was a little cold.
"Local Sannon!" Due to the violent struggle, Wang Daniu's shoulders had been strangled with blood marks by iron chains.
“…… You're a mulberry farmer, but why are you leading a rice farmer to make trouble?! Ma Yuan was furious! It's really nonsense, Sang Nong actually took the lead in pulling the rice farmers to make trouble! Changing rice to mulberry can't change his head, what is he doing when he comes out to make a fuss? Could it be that it is not a pastime for this house?
"I feel unfair! Rice farmers change to mulberry farmers, so what do they eat and drink? If the mulberry leaves can't be sold at a good price, the whole family will drink the northwest wind? Wang Da Niu Zhen Zhen has words, what he thinks in his heart, he just says it, and he doesn't care about Ma Yuan's already blue face.
"I think you're a wolf! Have an axe to grind! Maliciously instigated the masses who did not know the truth to confront the imperial court and besiege the imperial court officials! Come! Escort me back to Hangzhou and put me in prison! ”
As soon as these few words were said, the people who were already frightened in their hearts couldn't help but tremble, if they were put on such a big hat, it would be difficult to think about not dying. There was a dead silence.
"Keep stepping on the seedlings for me! Those who dare to block, there is one to catch one! With this widow, take him back to Hangzhou death row! Ma Yuan glared at the people around him, and gave orders to the soldiers again. The common people will never be able to fight the officials! As the old saying goes, if the people don't fight with the officials, the government won't believe it, and these people who live here will ignore their families and openly rebel?
Cavalry, you look at me, I look at you, no one moves.
"Give me a seedling! What are you doing in a daze?! Chang Yumin also had the courage to do so, and the cavalry had no choice but to continue to gallop through the farmland. Seeing the destruction of the seedlings they had painstakingly planted, many farmers couldn't help but cry out loud.
Dozens of cavalry sergeants suddenly appeared on the official road, riding horses and galloping here, the big banner clearly written on the words "Jingshi Guard", and the soldiers who were still stepping on the seedlings looked at it, and couldn't help but exude a chill from the bottom of their hearts. Isn't the Jingshi Guard Jinyi Guard, the emperor's personal guard? How did you get here? Could it be that they are here to arrest me and wait?
The leader is Zhu Yidao!
Anyway, how Lao Zhu appeared here, we have to start from before. The cabinet of the national policy of changing rice to mulberry has been sent to the political envoy department of Zhejiang Chengxuan and the envoy department of the criminal prosecution, asking them to cooperate with the upcoming supervision of the imperial history Li Hualong. But before Li Hualong arrived, Zhejiang's express delivery first arrived in the cabinet, asking for a delay in this policy, the reason is also very simple, the current rice fields are about to be harvested, if it is implemented now, then the province's grain prices will inevitably fluctuate; If you have to do it, you might as well wait a few more months.
But several elders in the cabinet are a little dissatisfied: this idea was not come up with us, but the emperor came up with it! If we come up with our own ideas, we can still discuss whether to slow down or not, and you dare to slow down the emperor's idea, what are you doing with Zhejiang's political minds? It must be practiced!
Zhejiang immediately has a tendency to be chaotic.
Zhu Yidao inadvertently said when he inspected Bi Feiyi's Air Force in Wanli, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, no matter what happens, you might as well take a look first, especially this kind of thing that has never been done before, it is crossing the river by feeling the stones; Implementation still needs to be implemented, but it cannot be so fast, and mistakes can be corrected while being implemented, so as to achieve the goal. Wanli thought about it, and after he went back, he gave Lao Zhu a decree and ordered him to replace the emperor and inspect the defense in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. This frightened Lao Zhu! Instead of the emperor inspecting Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he doesn't seem to have such a big status, right?
But Wanli didn't know what the purpose was, he had to go to Zhu Yidao, and instructed him not to interfere with any decisions and administrative measures of Zhejiang officialdom, and to report to him once a week! The confused old Zhu could only take hundreds of horses and go straight to Zhejiang, his soldiers took the official road, and when they passed by the post station, they had to change horses, which was naturally much faster than Li Hualong's small broken carriage. Soon rushed to Zhejiang, and also asked the Zhejiang political envoy in Hangzhou, the housekeeper said that the master went to Xin'anjiang, and some people wanted to rebel, so Lao Zhu couldn't take a break, and he was anxious to take people away overnight.
So he happened to meet Ma Yuan, the prefect of Hangzhou, with the garrison soldiers stepping on the seedlings. Lao Zhu's heart couldn't help but be angry! How can this Hangzhou prefect do things like this? No wonder Zhejiang wants the people to change! If he changes the law like this, the people who don't want to rebel will also be forced to rebel by him!
I wanted to directly stop the thin but red-faced official wearing a four-grade official uniform, but Lao Zhu remembered Wanli's instructions before leaving: "The name of letting you go to Zhejiang is to inspect the border defense!" Instead of interfering in the administration, you are just a martial artist, and you have already made too many enemies, so you must not go down the road again, if even the following feudal officials are offended, no one can protect you! He turned his horse's head and led the crowd straight at the cavalry.
The soldiers of the infantry army on the embankment immediately ran to the official road to assemble, and lined up in two columns on both sides of the official road; The cavalry who stepped on the seedlings also rushed to the official road, dismounted and lined up on the side to wait for Zhu Yidao's driver.
Zhu Yidao then led his horse and slowly walked to the middle of the two columns of cavalry, looked at them with cold eyes, and then looked at the cracked earth and the withered yellow green seedlings.
He didn't speak for a long time, and the cavalry infantry didn't know what this Qianhu of the Jingshi Guard wanted to do, and everyone had a bad premonition in their hearts. Could it be that he did not go all out to suppress the anti-people?
However, the abnormal behavior of the army made Ma Yuan and his party realize that there were high-ranking officials of the army coming, and when they came forward, it was the emperor's Jingshi Guard. What are they here for? It can't be a transfer of soldiers, right? Chang Yumin muttered to himself in a low voice. He can't be transferred, it's given to me by the ministry! Ma Yuan sneered. If Jingshiwei really thinks that he is omnipotent, then he is very wrong!
"I don't know if this general is Zhu Yidao and Zhu Qianhu?" Ma Yuan had a stiff smile on his face and deliberately complimented. I don't know how many people in the Ming Dynasty, and how many people dare to call them generals? I have given you enough face, and I hope you can do it yourself!
Zhu Yidao didn't look at him, only stared at the cavalry officer and said coldly: "You took these green seedlings to step on them?" ”
The officer hurriedly replied: "It's a subordinate ......" Only then did he realize that the Jingshi Guard was not here to treat them for their ineffective suppression!
"Smack!" Before he could finish his sentence, he was whipped heavily in the face! The horsewhip in Lao Zhu's hand flashed across his face like lightning, and the officer's face was immediately covered with blood!
The officer, understanding why he had been beaten, bowed his head in shame. It's just that he doesn't understand in his heart, when did this Jinyiwei change his personality and ask for his life for the people?
"Who else stepped on the green seedlings?! It's all for Lao Tzu to stand up for himself! Zhu Yidao sat on the back of the horse and roared angrily.
The soldiers who had stepped over the seedlings took a step from the side of the horse to the horse's head, still in two neat rows.
"Smack! Syllable! ......"Lao Zhu rode his horse through these two lines of sergeants, and the horsewhip flew left and right, a whip and a blood mark!"
