On October 29, thousands of people in Jinan City were empty, and they all went to the entrance of the vegetable market to see the killing of the officials of the Jinguo Public. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Shandong Governor Wang Yongji's family of six men and Denglai Governor Liang Fengchun were all captured by Zhong Feng and tied to the execution ground. Previously, the "Shandong Daily" had reported in detail that Wang Yongji and Liang Fengchun had deployed troops to resist the illegal acts of the "Jinguo Gong Court", and the people knew why the Jinguo Gong wanted to kill the two governors.

The Jinguo Public Court has been in Shandong for two months, and the judges are impartial and impartial in law enforcement, and have a very good reputation. Whether it is a small citizen who has no power or a wealthy businessman who is coveted by others, the court is protected by law. The excellent quality of the court, coupled with the positive publicity of the "Shandong Daily", the people of Shandong have supported the court with great support.

Except for a few powerful people who can oppress others, who is willing to go back to the original time of judicial chaos? "Shandong Daily" said: A fair court protects a fair social order, so that the people can devote themselves to production without worry, and will eventually make the whole of Shandong more prosperous.

Jin Guogong made decisions for the people, set up a court to do practical things for the people, and Jin Guogong was welcomed in Shandong. The two governors wanted to protect the interests of the corrupt bureaucracy, wanted to destroy the court of the Duke of Jin, and also sent troops to attack the Tiger Benshi of the Duke of Jin, which was too hateful.

Thousands of people gathered around the entrance of the vegetable market, and not one of them pleaded for the two governors. The people glared at the condemned prisoner on his knees, and regarded the two governors as enemies.

Zhong Feng wanted to kill the two governors in one go, and he was worried that the gentry would make trouble during the execution, so he sent 500 soldiers to maintain order at the entrance of the vegetable market. But when the execution was about to be carried out, Zhong Feng found that the people watching the excitement on the side of the execution ground were all ordinary people. Under the torture platform were all dressed in coarse cloth, and almost none of the gentry dressed in brocade came.

After the battle of Zhangqiu, where did the gentry in Shandong dare to come out at will?

Zhong Feng walked up to the execution platform, looked at Wang Yongji and shouted: "Shandong Governor Wang Yongji, you first ran a newspaper to spread rumors to attack the Duke of Jinguo, and then dared to transfer troops to attack the Tiger Master, do you know that you regret it now?" ”

Wang Yongji's face was colorless, he glanced at Zhong Feng, his eyes closed and he didn't speak.

Zhong Feng went up and kicked Wang Yongji and scolded: "Wang Yongji! If you hadn't led your troops to attack here, how would our Tiger Ben Division have killed so many local soldiers and horses in Shandong? How many soldiers have you killed by mobilizing troops and horses for personal gain? ”

Wang Yongji opened his eyes and said, "You let my family go, and my family burns incense and worships these soldiers every day..."

Zhong Feng kicked Wang Yongji again and scolded loudly: "The dog official knows how to make superficial articles. You've killed so many people, do you think I'll let you go? ”

When Wang Yongji heard this, he closed his eyes in despair. But his tears could not be stopped, and they flowed from his closed eyes.

Zhong Feng walked up to Liang Fengchun again and said with a smile: "Liang Fengchun, do you have anything to say?" ”

Liang Fengchun kowtowed desperately on the ground and said loudly: "General Mingjian, Liang Fengchun was coerced by Wang Yongji. Wang Yongji is in charge of all the affairs in the army, and Liang Fengchun is only forced to be subordinate to him. ”

Zhong Feng smiled and said, "In order to mobilize the soldiers and horses of Denglai Town, you have not written less letters to the generals in various places!" ”

Liang Fengchun was so choked by Zhong Feng that he couldn't speak, he looked at Zhong Feng, suddenly changed color and scolded: "Zhong Feng, you are a little general, don't think that you can do whatever you want in Shandong with Li Zhi." The Son of Heaven's army of more than 100,000 is in Xianghe, and sooner or later he will send troops to Tianjin to capture Li Thief! I've seen you get punished! ”

Zhong Feng pursed his lips and said: "You heard clearly, the Duke of Jin Guo is a hero of the country and the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty, and the Son of Heaven will not break with the Duke of Jin for the sake of you little crumbs." ”

Zhong Feng no longer said anything to the two dog officials, and shouted with a wave of his hand: "Execution!" ”

Seven soldiers walked up to the back of the condemned prisoner and pointed their guns at the back of the prisoner's head. Crackling gunshots rang out, blood splattered, and seven condemned prisoners fell in pools of blood.

The onlookers watched as Shandong's two biggest officials were shot and were silent for a long time.

It took more than ten seconds before someone applauded. The sound of cheer was like a spark falling into the dry grass, and it ignited a fire at once. Thousands of rejoicing people raised their fists and shouted cheers outside the execution ground.

"Well killed!"

"Kill the dog officer who opposes the court!"

"The corrupt officials in Shandong have been oppressing the people for a long time, and they have finally waited for the court!"

"Whoever opposes the court, kills him!"

On the third day of the first month of November, Zhu Youzhen, the son of heaven, stood by the window of the study of the Qianqing Palace, looking at the palace outside the window with his back hand.

After a long time, Zhu Youzhen asked: "Wang Chengen, how long have the 130,000 border troops been in Xianghe County?" ”

Wang Chengen replied: "Emperor, the border army has been stationed in Xianghe County for more than a month, but Li Zhi still has not withdrawn from Shandong. ”

Li Zhi hoarded grain and grass in Fanjiazhuang, dug trenches, and put on a posture of sticking to Fanjiazhuang. If our army surrounds Fanjiazhuang, it will be impossible to capture Fanjiazhuang without a year and a half."

Sighing, Wang Chengen said again: "The 30,000 local troops gathered by Wang Yongji, the governor of Shandong, and Liang Fengchun, the governor of Denglai, were also defeated by Li Zhi's 5,000 men and collapsed. The two governors not only failed to capture Jinan City, but were also captured and killed by Li Zhi. ”

"Holy Lord, Li Zhi will not flinch in front of the 130,000 border troops."

Zhu Youjian stood by the window and thought for a long time, and finally said: "The battalion soldiers in this place are really careless, and they are like paper paste in front of the tiger master." What I can rely on is these hundreds of thousands of border troops. ”

Shaking his head, Zhu Youzhen said: "Spread my will, let the border army retreat." ”

Wang Chengen was stunned and asked, "Emperor, this is the retreat?" ”

Zhu Youzhen said: "What I was worried about was that the Duke of Jin Guo would go further and collect taxes and levy troops in Shandong to turn Shandong into a second Tianjin. Now under the heavy pressure of the 130,000 border troops, the Duke of Jin should understand that my tolerance has reached the bottom line. If the Duke of Jin goes further, the 130,000 border troops will not be stationed in Xianghe, but will attack Tianjin. ”

"Although there is no war, the Duke of Jin Guo should understand the situation and will not impose commercial tax land on Shandong."

"If it drags on any longer, it will be a waste of food and wages, which will be detrimental to the overall situation of the whole country. The resurgence of thieves everywhere is exactly the time when the border army is needed. ”

"If the border army goes south, it can't suppress the thieves, maybe they will have to dispatch the soldiers and horses in Tianjin to quell the thieves. He can fight, but he can't tear his face. ”

"Spread my will, strictly prohibit the Duke of Jin Guogong from collecting business taxes and land taxes in Shandong without authorization, so that the Duke of Jin Guo can understand my bottom line. As for the court in Shandong, I won't talk about it in the holy decree, but I'll talk about it later. ”
