Chapter 524: Quanzhou Raid

Although Pu Shougeng's military power was seized by Cheng Yue, the coastal envoy itself has servants who can be sent, and the servants of Pufu can gather more than 2,000 people, which can be regarded as a large force. So before dawn the next day, when Cheng Yue was still asleep, after Pu Shougeng informed Shi Song, the team sent by the Pu family to arrest people set off in the dark.

The city of Quanzhou is not very large, and Muslims like to live together, so it is very convenient to catch people. On weekdays, many extreme Muslims who roam in Quanzhou and call Pu Shougeng brothers and sisters have been wiped out, and even those who have committed other crimes but have not been punished have all been arrested, and the Muslims in Quanzhou are at a loss and everyone is in danger.

Why did Pu Shougeng arrest them? Isn't it usually a good relationship?

The more timid Muslims even quietly packed their belongings and waited for their families at the city gates, intending to hide outside the city as soon as the gates opened.

Naturally, there are also people at the gate of the city who conduct a careful investigation of the Muslims, and Pu Shou Geng strictly ordered that no one on the list should be let go, let one go, and use his own people on his head!

When the news came out, the Muslims in the city were like ants on a hot pot, so anxious that they wanted to go to Pu Shougeng to inquire, but Pufu was surrounded by stone pines and couldn't get in at all. Needless to say, this matter must be related to the Metropolitan Governor, and it was the Metropolitan Governor who forced Pu Shougeng to do it!

Thirty-seven mosques in Quanzhou were confiscated, and all those who had oppressed the good and bad deeds were taken away and locked up. Everyone in Quanzhou is fast, and there are thousands of people who kowtow to the door of Cheng Yue's residence!

Cheng Yue woke up, and before he finished washing his face, Mrs. Luo came in with a smile and reported: "Official." More and more people came out to thank the officials. The door was almost shut. Do you want to go out and have a look? ”

Cheng Yue took the towel handed over by Wan'er, wiped his face clean, and said, "No, this is what I should do, how can I take credit?" ”

Zhang Shufang said with a smile: "Official, it seems that Pu Shougeng is very hard-working, and the Pu family is really underbeaten." ”

Cheng Yue nodded and said, "Pu Shougeng is a person who only admits strength. You can subdue him. He will work for you honestly, once your strength is weakened, he will not be polite, so I don't need to win him over, just let him understand my strength. ”

Rou Niang asked, "Xianggong, what are we going to do today?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Today there are arrests everywhere outside, we won't go out, let's have a fun in this house, and eat some seafood you love to eat, we should also take a break." ”

"Okay!" Kokolun and Babahan walked in from the outside. Kuo Kuolun smiled: "I just didn't finish my visit yesterday, and the garden here is very big. Let's have more fun. ”

Cheng Yue immediately opened a menu, asking the Pu family to prepare the seafood on it and deliver it, and accompany the girls to eat, drink and have fun leisurely in the back house of the Pu family, completely ignoring the disturbances outside.

Pu Shougeng was busy in Quanzhou City from morning to night all day, and there were more than 2,000 people who were arrested and imprisoned by him, but in fact, the list in Cheng Yue's hand was only 318 names!

The Muslims in Quanzhou were hit hard, and many people ran to the gate of Pufu, where Cheng Yue lived, to cry and complain, and all of them were repelled by Ma Fu.

In history, after Pu Shougeng betrayed the Southern Song Dynasty, he wantonly slaughtered tens of thousands of people in Quanzhou, and his eldest son Pu Shiwen had the most blood on his hands, and it is said that more than 5,000 people were committed by his rebellious soldiers. With the help of that massacre, Pu Shougeng wiped out all those who disobeyed him in one fell swoop, firstly to show the Mongols his determination to break with the Southern Song Dynasty, and secondly, to lay the foundation for his absolute control of Quanzhou in the future.

And the core and most cruel who followed Pu Shougeng to massacre the people of the Southern Song Dynasty were the Muslims in Quanzhou, especially the Sunni Muslims to which Pu Shougeng belonged. They killed, robbed, and did all kinds of evil, and they did not have the slightest mercy for the people of the Southern Song Dynasty who tolerated them and protected them.

Cheng Yue is well aware of this history and hates these ungrateful Muslims, so he wants to use the hands of Pu Shougeng, who is also a Muslim, to severely punish these people.

When night fell again, the people arrested by Pu Shougeng filled the cells of the coastal envoys, because there were so many people, and the cells of four people had to be squeezed into at least 20 people, and it was difficult to turn around. These people cursed wildly in prison and were furious at him for betraying his Muslim brothers.

scolded and scolded, and scolded the governor, after all, Cheng Yue was the initiator. If it weren't for his instructions, Pu Shougeng would not have attacked them.

The scolding in the prison was even stronger, and suddenly someone mentioned Cheng Yue's cruelty to the monks of Lin'an and the lamas of Dadu, and the scolding suddenly decreased, and everyone panicked. But someone immediately reassured everyone. They are different from the monks and lamas who were killed by Cheng Yue, they never thought of opposing the Dadu Governor, who at most punished them for the crime of oppressing the good, how could they take their lives?

As soon as these words came out, he was in prison. It is impossible for the Metropolitan Governor to live in Quanzhou for a long time, and when the Metropolitan Governor returns to Lin'an, it will be easy for them to go out!

In the evening, some people came to interrogate, and these people were worried that they would be caught and disadvantageous to themselves if they denied it, so they were very cooperative, answered all questions, and did not hide much.

A large stack of confessions was quickly sent into Pu Shouchen's mansion, and it was another sleepless night in Pu Mansion, they had to sort out the confessions as soon as possible, and they would send them to Cheng Yue tomorrow.

In the early morning of the next day, Cheng Yue had just had breakfast, and Wang Jiweng, Xu Hanqing, Mrs. Xu, and Chen Hangyan were already waiting in the side hall.

Cheng Yue stepped into the side hall, and the four of them hurriedly got up and saluted.

Cheng Yue smiled: "Please sit down, you don't have to be restrained." ”

The four of them sat down, Mrs. Song served them tea, and the four of them thanked them again and again.

Cheng Yue took a sip of tea and asked, "Pu Shougeng has arrested more than 2,000 people outside, what do you think?" ”

Xu Hanqing clapped his hands and laughed and said: "Most of the governors have eliminated harm for the people, and the lower officials clapped their hands with their wives yesterday, and they were happy for a whole day!" It's a pleasure, it's a pleasure! ”

Mrs. Xu's eyes were full of excitement, and she said coquettishly: "The governor of the capital has made this move, and the people of Quanzhou are grateful!" The concubine can't wait to participate in it and arrest those harmful spirits one by one! ”

Wang Jiweng said with a smile: "The lower officials think that the Metropolitan Governor must have a deep meaning in arresting these people, how does the Metropolitan Governor plan to punish them?" ”

Cheng Yue smiled slightly and said, "That's not my business, what do you think about handing it over to Pu Shougeng?" ”

Chen Hangyan hurriedly said loudly: "The governor of the capital can't, the old thief of Pu Shougeng will definitely refuse to deal with it strictly, as soon as the governor leaves, these people have to be released!" ”

A sneer appeared at the corner of Cheng Yue's mouth, and he said, "Oh? Will these people still be able to come out in good shape? I don't think so. ”

Mrs. Xu couldn't help but be overjoyed, clapped her hands and smiled: "The governor should have come to Quanzhou a long time ago, Quanzhou has been ruined by these people over the years!" ”

Cheng Yue coughed dryly and said with a wry smile: "Yes, it's late, don't be surprised." ”

Mrs. Xu grinned and felt closer to Cheng Yue.

Wang Jiweng arched his hand and said: "Metropolitan Governor, I don't know what the Metropolitan Governor summoned me to wait here, what are your orders?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "There are two things. The first one will be handed over to you. I want Pu Shougeng to hand over the land he forcibly occupied, and you are responsible for pursuing this matter to see if he deliberately omitted or underpaid compensation. Then check what other illegal acts Pu Shougeng and those people in the Pu family have, and report them to me together, I will never spare them. You don't have to have any scruples about Quanzhou in the future, no matter who it is, just track it down to the end! Let's look at how Pu Shougeng behaves today, maybe I still have something to do with you. ”

Wang Jiweng was in high spirits and said loudly: "Yes, obey the orders of the Grand Governor!" ”

Cheng Yue nodded and said to Xu Hanqing and the others: "Another thing to leave to you." You gathered 10,000 elite soldiers, set off together when I left Quanzhou, rushed to Lin'an to join the army, and followed me to the east to Japan. The remaining 20,000 people will go south to Guangxi to join Lu Shimeng, and train troops for our south. ”

Xu Hanqing and the three of them were overjoyed, and they hugged their fists together and said: "Yes, my subordinates obey orders." ”

Xu Hanqing said again: "Governor Dadu, the errand of the lower official trough is still there, and the people below need to be handed over in a few days, and will it be issued in three days?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Don't be in such a hurry, it's easy to make mistakes." I still have to stay in Quanzhou for a few days, tomorrow I want to go to Quanzhou Shaolin Temple, I heard that there is a strong martial arts, do you want to accompany me? ”

Mrs. Xu's eyebrows fluttered and said: "Okay, the light skills that the concubine learns are the martial arts of Shaolin, and the master of Quanzhou Shaolin also knows a few of them, and is willing to be a guide for the governor." ”

Cheng Yue smiled: "Okay, let's go tomorrow, I have admired the name of Southern Shaolin for a long time, and it is appropriate to go and pay respects." ”

Quanzhou South Shaolin history is destroyed by Pu Shou Geng and instigated the capital, more than 1,000 warrior monks to one as ten, the instigation of the vanguard Qi grasp Wen Si'er defeated and lost, more than 3,000 Yuan soldiers corpses all over the field.

Later, he instigated Du to lead an army of 30,000 to arrive, and when he saw that Qi held Wen Si'er and was defeated so far, he was shocked and angry, and he was not allowed to attack, but only ordered to release arrows. Suddenly arrows rained down, no matter how high the martial arts of the warrior monks were, there was no way to resist the rain of arrows, and in the end, only more than 100 people were able to escape. It can be seen that Quanzhou South Shaolin martial arts are prosperous and strong.

Xu Hanqing said: "The governor of the capital, the officials have to handle the handover, and if they can't accompany the governor to go, they will follow the governor with the insiders." ”

Cheng Yue said: "Of course, the business cannot be delayed. ”

Wang Jiweng said: "Governor Dadu, how far has the Pu family's case been handled?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "After you find out, I will make my own arrangements." ”

Wang Jiweng said: "Yes, the lower officials may wish to tell the Metropolitan Governor some things he knows first." ”

Cheng Yue said: "Say it, I'm free today, I will listen to you whatever you want to say." ”

Wang Jiweng is very happy, he has been an official for many years, he has saved a lot of words, and he has the opportunity to vomit in front of Cheng Yue, how rare!

Xu Hanqing and his wife and Chen Hangyan also had a lot to say, so several people offered suggestions and suggestions in front of Cheng Yue and spared no effort. (To be continued.) )
