Chapter 530: Notoriety
Huang Gai fled and the project stopped, and the news naturally could not be hidden, and soon reached Sun Quan's ears.
"What? Huang Gai escaped? Why is that? Didn't he say it well before? Why did you suddenly flee now? ”
When Sun Quan heard the news, he was shocked and angry, and roared loudly.
"Lord, this, this is actually related to a rumor....... "Jia Hua, the commander of the pro-soldiers, knew that the paper couldn't contain the fire, so he had to say the reason for it.
"Rumors? What rumors? Sun Quan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then asked strangely.
"That's it, it's about the lord's ......." Although Jia Hua was speechless, he still carefully said the rumor that was circulating among the people.
Before Jia Hua finished speaking, he saw Sun Quan slap the table and said with a blue face: "Who is this?" There is such a sinister intention, chewing the root of the tongue behind his back, and telling right and wrong? Jia Hua, you go and send someone to investigate this matter for me thoroughly! Also, immediately order that all those who spread rumors will be severely punished! Depending on the seriousness of the circumstances, punishments such as cane punishment will be given to confiscation and distribution! ”
"But, but my lord, there are such rumors in almost all of Jiangdong now, millions of people are saying this, if I really want to be punished, I'm afraid there will be no one in Jiangdong......"
"What? Why is this happening? Who is deliberately spreading rumors and doing bad things for me? Yu Zhongxiang, tell me, is this what Qin Gong is called? Didn't he say before that this was just a rumor spread by the generals under his command, and the person who spread the rumor was punished? Why are rumors all over Koto now? ”
Sun Quan couldn't help but roar in a low voice at this time, his blue eyes exuding a terrifying light, cold and terrifying, like the eyes of a poisonous snake.
At this time, he saw Yu shaking his head and said: "This matter may not be done by Duke Qin, maybe it is a rumor that Cao Cao sent someone to take a walk, before everything is clarified, we still can't easily draw conclusions, besides, even if it is really a rumor spread by Duke Qin, we can't actually do anything to him, we can only find a way to get him out." ”
Sun Quan is also a scheming person, as soon as he heard this, he understood the meaning of Yu Xuan, and immediately nodded and said: "Zhong Xiang is right, all this is Cao Cao's treacherous scheme, we can't be fooled by him, although Huang Gai escaped in the scheme, but someone in Stone City still needs to preside over the repair, Zhong Xiang, do you have a suitable candidate?" ”
Yu Fu was silent for a moment, and then said: "Lu Yi, the middle school teacher, is quite talented and can preside over the construction of the Stone City. ”
Lu Yi is a young talent newly promoted by Sun Quan, Sun Quan leans on him as a confidant, and now when he hears Yu Xuan's recommendation, he is overjoyed, patted his head, and said with a loud laugh: "Why did I forget him?" Zhong Xiang's words reminded me to see the sun, and my mouth suddenly opened. ”
Then Sun Quan ordered Jia Hua to invite Lu Yi over, and then entrusted him with an important task, asking Lu Yi to preside over the construction of the stone city, and be sure to complete the task within two months.
Lu Yi agreed without hesitation, patted his chest and assured Sun Quan that he would definitely complete the task within the specified time, and then he didn't even return home, and went directly to Stone Town to take office.
Although Lu Yi is talented, but he is a cool official who has left a name in history, after his arrival, he first gave both grace and power, so that those officials of all sizes were obedient, and then strictly ordered those officials to complete the construction of Stone City within fifty days, and those who completed the task were rewarded, and those who failed to complete it were punished with felonies.
Seeing that Lu Yi was so serious, those officials secretly complained in their hearts, but they could only get busy, working overtime to urge the migrant workers to work.
At the same time, Lu Yi also announced: "After investigation, the rumors that slander the lord are Cao Cao's conspiracy, and all those who spread rumors must be meticulous and accomplices sent by Cao Cao." ”
Subsequently, Lu Yi instructed the officials under his rule to strictly monitor the public opinion of the migrant workers, and anyone who dared to talk about slandering the power of the lord and grandson would be killed with a cane!
Originally, the people didn't care about this, but on the same day, dozens of people were killed with a rod because they talked about Sun Quan in private, so that the people dared to be angry and did not dare to speak out, and no one dared to talk about Sun Quan publicly.
Later, because of Lu Yi's personal supervision, the process of building the stone city gradually accelerated, only a month later, it was the final stage, and the rumors about Sun Quan are now much less, after Sun Quan heard about it, he praised Lu Yi, and also praised Yu Tuo's wisdom and ordered Yu Tuo to be rewarded.
Yu Flip accepted the reward with a smile on his face, and was grateful to Sun Quan, but he secretly sneered in his heart, because Yu Flip had already seen through physiognomy that Lu Yi was a cool official, as long as he presided over the construction of Stone City, the people would definitely suffer disasters, and as time went by, the people's dissatisfaction with him would become stronger and stronger, and when someone was secretly fanning the flames, a riot would break out in Jiangdong. Sun Quan, who was in a hurry, could only choose to surrender helplessly.
In fact, although it seems to be stable now, because of Sun Quan's slander, he has become even more notorious.
"Why is that man trying so hard to suppress us? This is obviously a weak heart, for fear that his charges will finally be confirmed. ”
"That's right, the more he suppresses it, the more it shows that the rumors are true."
"I really didn't expect him to be such a person......"
"It's no wonder, don't you see who he is using now? is simply a cool official who does everything, now that I think about it, the original General Huang was really a rare good person. ”
"It's because he's a good person and can't bear to embarrass us anymore, so that's why he hung up his crown and left, right?"
……
Although the rumors did not dare to spread blatantly, the speed of the spread of the previous rumors was no less than that of the previous rumors, which made the discontent in the hearts of the people stronger and stronger, and this discontent was exploited by some people with ulterior motives at the right time, and finally caused a conflict.
On August 19 in the autumn of the tenth year of Jian'an, Danyang County, Jing County, when the people were busy with the autumn harvest, Lu Yi once again sent people to urge the conscription, and asked the people to go to Stone Town early the next morning.
When the news came, the people were furious, dozens of people shot out in anger and beat the officials who urged the levy to death, and even the Li Zheng and the chief of the levy were also indignant, they denounced Lu Yi for being cruel and unkind, and threatened those officials that if they dared to come again, they would break their doglegs.
Those small officials hurriedly fled, and reported to Lu Yi, Lu Yi was furious when he heard this, and immediately ordered a large army to be dispatched to suppress those Diao people, so as not to do the same to the people.
However, what is unthinkable is that the suppression of the army has caused even greater anger, and at the instigation of some well-intentioned people, a large-scale peasant uprising broke out there, and more than 100,000 people rose up to besiege the official government, which suddenly plunged the situation in Jiangdong into an unprecedented shock.
