Chapter 636: Fanning the Flames
Since Zhang Juzheng issued the decree to rectify the academic administration, although the private academies in Huizhou Prefecture did not close their doors immediately, they were a little more careful than in the past. As a result, the government and social studies, which had always been pressed by those academies, suddenly seemed to tremble. Even some talented litigants who used to be in the name of a student, but did not go to the county school to show up, often went to order a mao.
On this day, there were five or six Xiucai gathered in the Wuyuan School Palace, but they didn't come to attend classes, but they just used the county school to discuss their own affairs, and the leaders were Cheng Renqing and Cheng Wenlie. Cheng Wenlie thought that he was a student member of the government at the beginning, and in the lawsuits handled by the Huizhou government, he almost took over all the lawsuits from Wuyuan, but because he was not in agreement with Wang Shangning's side to deal with Wang Fulin, he was defeated and lost, and ran to a foreign country to avoid the limelight, and only came back after Wang Fulin went to Beijing, but the title of the first lawyer of Wuyuan had been robbed by the rising star Cheng Renqing.
In the fierce debate of the government before, he heard that Wang Fulin was not going, and he tried his best to revive his strength, but he was disappointed. In that heated debate, it was clear that they had the upper hand from beginning to end, and Wang Shangning's group of people were not even evenly matched in the face of the five counties and thousands of people, but they had the upper hand because of the bias of the Fuzun!
Because of this, after their group of Wuyuan returned to the county seat, they were willing to give up, and immediately united with the ruffians and bullies in the countryside, and then tried to incite public opinion, and even let out the rumors. As long as the people are willing to pay for the journey. They are also willing to go to Nanjing and even go to Beijing to complain like Shuai Jiamo! But that's just one of their purposes. What is really trying to make a fuss and force the government to change its attitude. However, as soon as this rumor was released, Wuyuan County ordered Wu Xuan to deal cards on Thunder Wanjun, arrested several people in the name of bewitching the public, and posted a notice strictly prohibiting private tandem, and reiterated that he would fight for reason and not break the law of the ancestors.
Wu Xuan was a Jinshi in Longqing for five years, and he was used as the Wuyuan County Commander when he was on the list. Because of his long-term tenure, he has been in office for four full years, but he is not yet 30 years old. On the Yayi Gate of Wuyuan County, there is now a banner posted by Wu Xuan himself, which is called "Confession is not good, strong and unavoidable, bud is not entered, and the joints are not passed", which is called the four county orders. And this one is not just talking, he really does what he says when he arrives. In the first two years, he even made private interviews at every turn, which made many traitors complain. Even these talented litigators, who specialize in litigation for a living, only dare to work hard in the third class and six rooms, and categorically dare not appear in front of this county magistrate.
Otherwise, Wu Xuan would dare to go to study politics and exempt them from their fame in the name of lawsuits!
Therefore, at present, if they want to connect with the villagers, draw some money in the name of appealing, and make trouble by the way, and reverse the tone set by the government office, so as to establish their reputation, then they will inevitably be unable to bypass Wu Xuan, the county magistrate. In other words, either Wu Xuan is not in the county, or they have to find a way to make him unable to play the role of the county order, otherwise they will not be able to do anything!
Cheng Renqing saw that the other people had one idea and one idea, but in the end, none of them could really be used, so he raised his eyebrows impatiently, looked at Cheng Wenlie deliberately and said, "Since everyone has no good way, let's invite the seniors to come up with an idea, right?" I heard that the predecessors were the masterminds of Wang Shangning's old immortal, but they were defeated by Wang Fulin, so they had to go away. ”
Hitting people doesn't slap people in the face, exposing people doesn't expose shortcomings, the biggest pain point in Cheng Wenlie's life is that he was forced to not even stay in his hometown, and he was almost stripped of his fame, so when he saw Cheng Renqing running on like this, he was immediately furious: "You have the ability, you go and provoke Wang Fulin!" Not to mention others, even our famous iron-faced Jinshi Yu Maoxue in Wuyuan has made him dismiss and go home, and he has never been out of the house so far, you should try! ”
As soon as these words came out, although some people were not convinced, the legend left by Wang Fulin in the past was too brilliant, coupled with Yu Maoxue's dismissal for the people, and Wang Fulin's return to his hometown to marry his sister, the win or loss was already very obvious. In addition, Wang Fulin made it clear that he was watching from the wall this time, and no one was willing to provoke such a bad star. Even Cheng Renqing, who squeezed out the name of Cheng Wenlie's first master in Wuyuan, is the same.
Seeing that everyone was choked dumb for a while, Cheng Wenlie said with a smile: "I heard that when Shuai Jiamo comes back this time, he will not only bring the attitude of the Nanjing Metropolitan Court and the Nanjing Household Department, but also donate the crown and belt, just to return to his hometown. In this case, he let out the rumors, saying that because he spoke for Sheren to seek benefits, the bigwigs from She County in the court rewarded him, donated an official position to him, and even asked Sheren to prepare colorful flags to welcome him as a hero. The news of our return has already spread, and the bottom has long been dissatisfied, isn't this a pinch that can explode the pot in three moments? ”
Cheng Renqing poured cold water on the side and said: "Speaking of which, you still haven't solved the problem of Wu Xianzun." As long as he is there, what he wants to do if he wants to instigate public opinion, it is simply a fool's dream! ”
"What's wrong with Wu Xianzun, although he is strong, but it's not true that he can't deal with it, do you understand the plan to transfer the tiger away from the mountain? Doesn't he like private interviews with microservices? Where to make something happen, let him go to Weifu for a private visit, or forge official documents from the government and transfer him to the city! All in all, as long as he is not in the county seat, set up the council bureau, and then let the villagers make a fuss, and then contact Xiuning or the villagers on the Qimen side to make a fuss, isn't this okay? There are a few powerful litigants on Xiuning's side, and this time they lost the debate in the government office, and they are not convinced, but it is in the county office, and Xiuning Chen Xianzun is not as strong as our Wu Xianzun. ”
Speaking of this, Cheng Wenlie said meaningfully: "As long as Xiuning's side can hold Chen Xianzun hostage and give the news of the chaos in Huizhou Mansion to Kuaima Chen Zuo Nanjing and even Jingshi, if such turmoil occurs in the hinterland of Nanzhili, who would dare to tamper with the ancestral law of our Huizhou Mansion's old daily tax amount?" As for us, when Wuyuan makes a fuss, we will immediately set up a council bureau and collect money to go to Nanjing or even Beijing to complain and complain, and everyone can leave a few hundred taels of pockets, right? Anyway, all of you know your own family affairs, and you all expect to be able to pass the exam. So he took the money and hid out. Come back in three or five years. Like Shuai Jiamo, is he still a hero? ”
"Do you want me to teach you next?"
Today, these talents are all first-class smart or slippery people, and when Cheng Wenlie said this, everyone was touched by the bypass, and they all understood it at once. Wuyuan is supplemented, Xiuning is the mainstay, who let the former government in the fierce debate, people keep saying that the richest person in Huizhou is not Shexian County. But Xiuning? Even their Wuyuan will be left behind. So, even if Cheng Renqing was no longer convinced in his heart, he could only watch Cheng Wenlie take away the dominance from his hands. Cheng Wenlie proudly pointed out that his two classmates Wu Dajiang and Ye Ting, who were in Fuxue at the beginning, were from Xiuning, so he asked them to contact the upper and lower levels, just in time to echo, and the tone was set.
The undercurrent of the people in Wuyuan and Xiuning counties is surging, but the owners of the Huizhou Mansion and Shexian County are unaware, perhaps even if they know. They also confidently believe that the authority of the government trumps everything. At least, they believe that in this Ming Dynasty is second only to the core of the Northern Zhili, the Southern Zhili. There will certainly be no popular uprising. Back then, the big chaos in Suzhou that originated from the fight and almost held the dignified Ying Tian Governor hostage, that was a matter of many years, and it had long been selectively ignored.
Because of this, with the power of the previous government to fiercely argue about the victory, Shexian ordered Xue Chao to immediately send Master Liu to Xuancheng again to pick up Shuai Jiamo back. At the same time, he instructed his cronies to spread the good news among the people and return with good news, and on the day Shuai Jiamo returned to Huizhou, a large number of people waving colorful flags and carrying drums went out of the city to welcome the heroes. It is conceivable that Shuai Jiamo, who has not known how much suffering he has suffered since he raised this matter, when he heard the drum music, the colorful flags waving, and the countless shouts and cheers, he was completely fluttering, where did he still remember the words passed on by the son of Shen of Xuancheng on behalf of Wang Fulin when he set off from Xuancheng.
"You, a hero, have offended everyone in the other five counties for the benefit of a county, and the people of a county are grateful to you, but the people of the other five counties are eager to gnaw on your flesh and blood. Once there is a big change, won't the Anzhi government use you as a scapegoat for calming things? If you want to go back, you might as well keep a low profile, if you return home, some people will cheer for you, but it is likely that more people will borrow you to make trouble! ”
Entering the city in the midst of countless cheers, Shexian Zhao's chief bookkeeper personally greeted Xue Xianzun, Wang Shangning also came in person, and the people of Shexian County on both sides of the road welcomed him, and Shuai Jiamo truly experienced the taste of the pinnacle of life. And when he was invited into the Yamen of She County, Xue Xianzun personally treated him with courtesy, and after he relayed the attitude of the Nanjing Metropolitan Court and the Nanjing Household Department, he actually took himself to the Huizhou Mansion with a sedan chair, and conveyed this meaning to Yao Fuzun, Shuai Jiamo, who had a meal in the Mansion for the first time in his life, only felt a thousand tastes in his heart.
His ancestral home is not She County, but he has lived in She County for decades with his father who served in Xin'anwei, and he has been running around for so long for the villagers who are not villagers, and now he is finally able to come to the bitter end, God is still fair!
And when he went back with the sedan chair again after leaving the mansion, Xue Chao asked with sincerity: "Mr. Shuai, do you want to go to Wang's house in the back street of the county to meet Wang Gongzi?" ”
Shuai Jiamo's face froze. Thinking of Master Liu's previous message that Wang Fulin thought that he should slow down, thinking of the message of the young man Shen when he set off from Xuancheng, and thinking of not seeing Wang Fulin when he entered the city today...... He suddenly felt a lot of bad feelings. Just because when he was in Shexian County's class room, Wang Fulin has always believed in the other party, and now that he thinks about it, maybe all the crises and even murders encountered on that snowy night are just a scene of the other party? He smiled happily, and finally said lightly: "No, I'll go home directly." ”
What Xue Chao wanted to hear most was this, and immediately without saying a word, he ordered the four people to carry the sedan chair directly to carry Shuai Jiamo home. Shuai Jiamo was even more flattered by such courtesy, and when he returned to the door of his house, saw the freshly painted walls, and saw his wife and children in new clothes come out to greet him, he threw all the remaining doubts into the clouds.
The government and the people's hearts are on his side, what else does he have to worry about?
However, the hearts of the people in She County are towards Shuai Jiamo, and the other five counties are different. Shuai Jiamo returned to his hometown in such a big battle, coupled with Cheng Wenlie's gathering of many people to instigate it, the five counties more or less made a fuss, especially Wuyuan and Xiuning. Because of the rumors, when the government was arguing fiercely before, She County pointed to Xiuning and Wuyuan being rich and chasing after She County, and they should bear more burdens. As a result, a large group of villagers were instigated and knelt in front of the Wuyuan County Ya, which naturally alarmed Wu Xuan, the county commander.
After thinking about it, Cheng Wenlie and the others still didn't make something happen in other places to divert the tiger from the mountain, but used this trick to force the palace. In the tears of many old villagers, Wuyuan County made Wu Xuan's face more and more gloomy, and in the end, he heard the voices asking him to go to the government to submit the letter of the people, petitioning not to change the law of the ancestors, where can he shirk after serving for four years and is deeply loved by the people? What's more, in the face of such a turbulent public sentiment, he knew that if he used strong pressure to subdue him now, he was afraid that he would cause trouble, so he only promised to go to Huizhou Mansion in person to complain, which made the villagers disperse.
Early the next morning, the Wuyuan county magistrate took an old servant and four carefully selected county officials and people, and immediately set off for Fucheng. As soon as he left, several talented people who had single-handedly planned the previous petition to besiege the county government immediately celebrated. You must know that Huizhou has six counties, Shexian is of course attached to Guofucheng, and Xiuning and Jixi are only fifty or sixty miles away from Fucheng, Yixian is one hundred miles, Qimen is one hundred and sixty miles, and Wuyuan is the farthest away from Fucheng, one way is two hundred and seventy miles, more than five hundred miles back and forth, even with the help of the post station, ordinary people are one hundred and twenty miles a day, and it takes at least four or five days to go back and forth!
And for the Huizhou Mansion, which has no emergency military situation, the horses in the post station are seriously lost, and they can't go so fast at all, so the time can be relaxed more, which is enough for them to do things!
So, the day after Wu Xuan rushed to Fucheng, a large number of villagers surrounded the Wuyuan County Ya. Yu Xiancheng, who was temporarily acting for the affairs of the county order, took Cheng Dehuan, the secretary of the household house, to come out to appease him in person, but the second official in this year had little face and no real power, and Yu Xiancheng was even less than the high prestige of the county order Wu Xuan among the people. Cheng Dehuan saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly scolded him twice, but before he could secretly instruct someone to call the third shift to come out and play the pressure, the accident happened.
"Wu Xianzun didn't go to the government to complain on behalf of our Wuyuan people at all, he has been in Wuyuan for four years, and now the adults above are biased towards Shexian, and they want to take this opportunity to transfer him elsewhere!"
"These officials are used to deceiving people, Yu County Cheng sold our people in Wuyuan in order to be the county commander!"
"Cheng Dehuan colluded with Sheren and did something on our Wuyuan's enlistment yellow book!"
With the chaotic sound coming from the crowd one after another, Yu County Chengdeng's heart was in turmoil, where could he still speak, and he reflexively ran to the county hall. This move is usually regarded as timid and scared at most, but now it has become a sign of weakness. And Cheng Dehuan didn't even have time to say a word, so he was tied up to the ground and beaten all at once. As for the men who wanted to block it, or the other errands, in the face of the surging crowd, they were all rushed out of formation, and they didn't know how many punches and kicks they received.
In one day, Wuyuan was in chaos!
