When the next day came, the gates of the various cities in Siqi Province were still blocked by the Han army, and ordinary people were only allowed to enter but not leave. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

For the newly established governments at all levels in Siqi Province, the second day is very important, and as long as today's matter is done well, it will be able to initially win the support of the residents of the city.

What is so important?

Answer: Judge the Manchu magnates who oppressed the people and their dogs.

The county seat of Lushan.

Early in the morning in Lushan County, several staff members of the LS county government shouted while striking gongs: "Everyone pay attention, at the Xicheng vegetable market at nine o'clock in the morning, the county magistrate will personally try the criminals, and those who have grudges and grievances can ask the county magistrate to be the master." ”

The staff banged the gong and shouted over and over again, wanting the people of Lushan County to know about it, and as for how many people will go to watch the verdict, it is good that only someone will go.

The time has come, Du Xiaosheng, the young county magistrate of Lushan County, has already sat on the platform set up in the Xicheng vegetable market, surrounded by Han soldiers, police, and auxiliary police (Yan's hired workers equipped with cold weapons), and surrounded by thousands of ordinary people outside, these people are the kind of people who are more bold and open-minded, they know that those Han soldiers, police, and auxiliary police will not kill people casually, don't you see that ordinary people's homes have not been robbed?

"Bringing people to commit crimes." Du Xiaosheng said.

Soon two policemen were seen bringing a middle-aged man about 40 years old to the stage.

"It's Lu Heixin."

"Lu Heixin should be damned, he connived at his nephew to rob my uncle's fifty acres of good land."

"Kill Lu Heixin."

As soon as Lu Youwei was brought to the stage, the people in the audience talked about it, and several people had grudges against Lu Youwei.

When Lu Youwei heard the words of the people in the audience, his originally trembling body trembled even more, and he almost couldn't stand anymore, and the two policemen could only hold Lu Youwei with great effort.

Lu Youwei, the former county magistrate of Lushan County, was greedy for money and lustful, conniving at his relatives to rob other people's property, and his subordinates even followed the same example, making a good Lushan County into a miasma.

Then a Lushan county government official began to chant aloud about Lu Youwei's various crimes.

"The charges were found out, Lu Youwei's crime was extremely heinous, and the official sentenced Lu Youming to death, and someone came to pull Lu Youming down and shoot him." Du Xiaosheng made a cameo appearance as a judge and pronounced the verdict on Lu Youming.

The two policemen almost fainted Lu Youming pulled aside.

Syllable!

A gunshot rang out, and Lu Youming was executed.

When the people in the audience saw this bloody scene, few were afraid, and they applauded loudly.

"You deserve it."

"Well done."

"Thank you Lord Qingtian for calling the shots for us."

……

Just killing one Lu Youming, the Lushan County Government has gained the support of many people, and then there are more people to be tried, all of them have done many evils in Lushan County, some of them are extremely evil, they are shot directly, and some crimes are slightly minor and do not lead to death, then they will be sentenced to labor reform (how many years of mining or road construction).

After the trial of the county magistrate of Lushan County, every time a prisoner was sentenced, the people in the audience would applaud loudly, and the people in the audience gathered more and more, and the Xicheng vegetable market was crowded with people.

With the verdict of the prisoners one by one, the people of Lushan County are very grateful to the Lushan County Government for being able to kill these evildoers, and the Lushan County Government has gained the initial support of the people of Lushan County, and it is believed that after the Lushan County Government promulgates regulations that are beneficial to the people, the people will support the Lushan County Government even more.

Not only the LS county government, but also 31 prefectures and 156 counties in Siqi Province are conducting a trial that is applauded by the people under their jurisdiction, and the local governments have won the initial support of the people.

Supporting the local government means supporting the Yan clan and supporting Yan Xueyi, and the Yan clan's rule over Siqi Province will become more and more solid, and the day when Yan Xueyi becomes king will not be too long.

After the trials were over, there was a new thing to be done, that is, to remove the most heinous criminals among the captured Manchu officers and soldiers, and to use the rest to mine or build roads for the Yan clan in Siqi Province.

After those Manchu officers and soldiers were captured, they were not given food or water to drink, and to this day they have not drunk a sip of water or eaten a grain of food all day, and adults are hungry and panicked if they don't eat a meal, let alone eat all day.

Then he placed a large pot of steamed buns or rice in front of the captives and said to the captives, "If any of you denounces the evil deeds that others have done, you will get food." ”

The captives, who were already starving and fainting, reported the evil deeds done by others, so that the most heinous people among the captives were singled out, and those who were not enough to be shot for the rest of the crimes were slowly repaired for the Yan clan and made up for their crimes.

And one last thing, and that is about the treatment of the Manchurians.

How should the Manchus be dealt with, Yan Xueyi made a judgment: just treat the Manchus as Han people normally, those who have committed crimes among the Manchus will be dealt with, their families do not need to blame, and most of the Manchus' property will be confiscated, leaving only a small amount of money to allow them to live for a few months.

This kind of treatment seems to be preferential treatment for the Manchus, and many soldiers in the Han army think that all the Manchus should be killed, but this is too extreme in Yan Xueyi's opinion.

Yan Xueyi, who has the memory of two lifetimes, is a great Chinese nationalist, not a great Han nationalist.

The Chinese nation refers to the unified name of all ethnic groups living on the land of China, whether Manchu or Han are all part of the Chinese nation, if the Manchus are killed now, then how will other ethnic groups be treated in the future, do not forget, the number of ethnic minorities in Siqi is quite large, are they all killed?

That's why Yan Xueyi made such a sentence to the Manchus, but there are very few Manchus (excluding women and children) who do not oppress the Han people, so most of the Manchus need to be tried, some of them will be shot, and the other part will also go to mining or road repairs, so the sentence of the Manchus is not preferential treatment for the Manchus.

At the same time, this sentence of the Manchu people also let the other ethnic minorities who were ruled in the future know that the Chinese nation is equal, and there is no question of who is higher and who is lower, no matter which ethnic group commits a crime, the same must be sentenced, unlike the countries of later generations, which actually give preferential treatment to ethnic minorities, not only extra points in exams, but also more care for ethnic minorities in other places, Han people seem to be a head lower than ethnic minorities, once ethnic minorities commit crimes, officials also need to be cautious to deal with them, for fear of causing ethnic disputes, The arrogance of ethnic minorities is all due to the habit of that group of officials.

……

The news of the occupation of Siqi Province by bandits was also slowly spread by the people who came and went to Siqi Province, and the imperial court was still waiting for Ding Baozhen's news at this time, and did not know that all the herald team was ambushed, and even Ding Baozhen was killed.
