Chapter Seventy-Five: The Rebellion Conference

The village is not big, there are only dozens of households, and Shen Chongming and a few people immediately caused a sensation when they arrived, and Ada also rushed to hear the news.

"Lord Shen, why are you here!" Looking at Shen Chongming, Ada was full of joy: "Hehe, come and see you, this village is good!" Shen Chongming turned over and dismounted, looked at the stockade and said with a smile.

"Hehe, please hurry, a few adults are also invited," Ada greeted warmly, and at the same time turned back and shouted: "Grandma, here are the guests!" ”

A bowl of mountain spring water, sweet and delicious: "Ada! I didn't accompany you to the prison to save people a few days ago, Sister Afei is okay! Putting down the water bowl, Shen Chongming looked at Ada and asked with a smile.

The young man who was resolute a few days ago turned into a shy little boy at this time: "Sister, she is just a little frightened, just raise her for a while!" ”

"Hehe, that's great!" Shen Chongming nodded with a smile, with the attitude of an elder, and then frowned and asked, "By the way, didn't it mean that you took people and Huang Wancheng to make a toast to your Lord Tusi a few days ago, and he didn't come to you for any trouble these days!" ”

"No, Huang Wancheng is dead, and Lord Guogong is in Siming Mansion with the imperial army again, I heard that Luo Yao doesn't dare to go out, and his soldiers have also restrained a lot!" Speaking of this, Ada couldn't help but smile, life has never been so peaceful as these days, and everyone doesn't have to worry about the family soldiers of Lord Tusi to harass him.

"Something is not good!" Shen Chongming shook his head: "According to what you said a few days ago, this Luo Yao is mean and greedy for money, and he is even more narrow, this time something like this happened, don't look at him and dare not go out now, but once Grandpa Guo leaves here, I am afraid that he will find trouble with you again, and it will get worse!" ”

Looking at Shen Chongming's solemn appearance, Ada couldn't help but be stunned and puzzled: "Why?" ”

"This incident has greatly damaged his prestige, and when Grandpa Guo leaves with the army, he will definitely be eager to regain his prestige, and he will definitely not be able to tolerate those of you who resisted him and Huang Wancheng at the beginning, and it is very likely that they will kill you!" Shen Chongming said with a serious face.

"This ...... Probably not! Ada hesitated, isn't the matter over, why did he come back to find trouble?

"Hehe, you're still too young! If he doesn't punish you well, will anyone be afraid of him in the future? If you are not afraid of him, what can he, this toast, plunder your belongings! Shen Chongming asked two questions in a row, which made Ada fall into deep thought.

The clansmen live in difficulty, precisely because in addition to paying the imperial court taxes, they also have to hand over nearly half of their income to the Tusi, and their ancestors have passed down from generation to generation, and they have never been rich, which is just oppression, and even more so, he is also clever and robbing, and he has more than 1,000 soldiers in his hands to oppress the clansmen, which is really hateful.

Seeing Ada's face look ugly, Shen Chongming couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and it seemed that his goal had been achieved by Senior Brother Remnant Knife. Although this is a bit of a game of other people's feelings, after all, as long as it is done, it is a win-win situation, so there is nothing to feel guilty about.

"So! What we have to do now is to keep you safe, or you can go back to the capital with this official!" With your kung fu, it's easy to get an errand in the army, but as long as you leave here, it's impossible for Luo Ja to harm you! Shen Chongming proposed.

"No, what will happen to the other clansmen as soon as I'm gone!" Ada refused without thinking about it, paused for a moment, hugged his fists and said: "Lord Shen, please be merciful and merciful, save our people, Luo Yao is definitely violating the laws of the imperial court by collecting taxes from us privately, you are a Beijing official, there must be a way to punish him!" ”

"Alas! This official doesn't want to do this, but there are dozens of Tusi in Guangxi, how can the imperial court easily meddle in their affairs, once they rashly deal with Luoja, it will definitely cause other Tusi to oppose it, and then they will definitely unite against the imperial court, then there will be a war, and in the end it will be you ordinary people who will suffer! Shen Chongming's words were sincere, and he couldn't see the slightest fraud.

"This, what can we do, if the court has no choice, then we can only assemble here to protect ourselves, in that case, we will still be called a chaotic people!" It is not easy to be a chaotic people, hiding in Tibet and starving in the middle of the Sifang Mountains all day long, and you have to be constantly worried.

"Alas! If only someone could remove Rojak from power! Shen Chongming sighed with emotion and asked in a low voice: "Ada, haven't you thought about driving Luo Jak from power and choosing another respectable and kind-hearted clansman to serve as the Tusi?" ”

"Tusi is not appointed by the imperial court, how can we choose!" Ada looked at Shen Chongming with a puzzled face and asked.

"Hehe, then let me ask you, how did the location of this toast come from!" "It was passed on to him by his father!"

"Then who passed on the position of Abba Toast, and in the above, what was the identity of the first person appointed as Toast by the imperial court!" Shen Chongming continued to ask.

"The first one should be the headman, I heard the old people say that when the imperial army entered Guangxi, the head man was specially appointed as the toast to appease our people!" Ada thought for a moment and said.

"How did that head come about, is it also passed down from father to son?" Asked this, Shen Chongming couldn't help but laugh, the head person is a person of high moral and respected character elected by all the clansmen!

Ada also understood, and said cautiously: "What Lord Shen means is that there is no difference between this Lord Toast and the head man!" ”

"Of course, there is no difference, the imperial court appoints a toast position. Although it is said that it can be passed down from generation to generation, it has not been said that you are not allowed to elect a new leader by yourself! Now that Luo Ja has acted like this, it is no longer suitable to be the leader, and you yourself will not interfere in the election of a court! Shen Chongming spread his hands and said.

Ada was overjoyed, high-fived, and said: "Yes, Luo Ja is acting recklessly and oppressing the clansmen, and it is no longer suitable to be the leader, our Zhuang family must re-elect the head who is highly respected and dedicated to the clan!" ”

"Yes, then your life will be better, and you don't have to worry about Luo provoking trouble!" Shen Chongming got up and patted Ada on the shoulder, finally educating him well.

"Hehe, thank you for mentioning it, Ada won't accompany you much, so I will convene the owners of the village to discuss this matter!" Ada said excitedly.

"Wait, convene the owners of the village, then you are ......" Shen Chongming said suspiciously, Ada smiled innocently: "I am the owner of our village!" ”

"Elder brothers, Tusi Luo Jay has no way, and has been oppressing our clan for many years, today Ada invites you to come here to discuss the re-election of a leader to replace Luo Ja as the new Tusi!" Facing a room full of people, Ada said excitedly.

"Ada, Immortal Emperor! This election of the head is a matter of the older generations, although Luo Ja brutalized the clan, but he is the Tusi appointed by the imperial court, we elected the head to replace him, I am afraid that the court will not agree! An old man said with a frown.

"Hehe, Uncle Ming, you are too worried, when the imperial court appointed Tusi, it was to appoint the head of the time. Although it can be passed down from generation to generation, it is not said that when the Tusi is brutal and unreasonable, we will not let us re-elect the head, Tusi is an official of the imperial court, and the court set up the position of Tusi in order to stabilize the place and protect the interests of our Zhuang family, but the current Tusi Luo Ja is greedy for money and mean, and actually treats our clansmen as his slaves, which is not only not what the head should do, but also goes against the will of the court, so let's re-elect the head to replace Luo Ja as the Tusi, and the court will definitely not interfere! Ada said these words happily, and everyone nodded when they heard it, which is reasonable.

"For the interests of our clansmen, for the benefit of future generations, Ada is determined to overthrow Luoja, and together with the owners of the village, a new head will be elected to take over as the Tusi, I hope that the owners of the village can help each other, as long as we work together and let the mountains in front of him block, our strong men can also cross over!" Ada said passionately.

"Okay, for the sake of future generations, this is risky, I approve of it!" A tall man stood up and said, and as soon as he began, more and more people began to agree, until the final unanimous vote passed.

Waving his hand and pressing down on the excited village owners, Ada said: "Fellow village owners, in order to act in unison, Ada proposes that we jointly nominate the abbot of the clan who is considered to be highly respected, and Ada is the first to support him!" ”

Everyone talked about it for a long time, and they all nodded in agreement: "You want me to see it!" This man will choose Ada! We, the young people in the village, obey him," an old man proposed.

Before Ada pushed back, everyone in the house nodded in agreement, and the young people in various villages were in Sifangling under the leadership of Ada in order to resist Huang Wancheng a few days ago.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this person can't help it, Ada has shallow prestige, and he really can't afford such a big thing!" Ada waved his hand again and again in disagreement.

But everyone did not follow, and one of the old men laughed and said, "Ada! Everyone thinks you can do it, so don't push it anymore, how can a good man of our Zhuang family not have a little responsibility? ”

"That's it, Ada, don't retreat!" Everyone persuaded one after another, but Ada was not allowed to say another half-sentence.

After a stalemate, Ada couldn't see it, so he could only bear it: "Okay, since you are the master of the village, Ada will definitely not let everyone down!" ”

Since the leader was elected, Ada did not procrastinate, and directly discussed with everyone the matter of crusading against Luo Jak.

"The Luo family has served as the Tusi for generations, and the Luo clan is prosperous, and now nearly half of the nearly 2,000 clan soldiers in his hands are the brothers of the Luo family, and the rest are also the land of our clansmen in each village and Siming Prefecture and Siling Prefecture, a few days ago because of Huang Wancheng's old thief, nearly half of the clan soldiers in each village fled, so now if we want to overthrow Luo Jay, the most important thing is to disintegrate the remaining more than 1,500 clan soldiers, as long as Luo Ja has no troops to rely on, it will be easy to overthrow him!"

Ada analyzed carefully, which made everyone admire him, and it seemed that it was a very wise decision to elect him to take on the responsibility.

Seeing that everyone did not object, Ada couldn't help but become more confident, and said loudly: "So, the first thing we have to do is to call the people from each village to go home, so that there will be less than a thousand soldiers in Luo Jao's hands, and the soldiers of our villages have gathered to stabilize him, plus the young people who are now staying in the village, we are sure to win!" ”……

Shen Chongming, who was sitting in the back room, couldn't help but chuckle when he listened to the noisy discussion outside, tsk, this is simply a rebellion mobilization meeting!
