Chapter 40. Famous ministers through the ages
The sunset was like blood, and this group of scholars who were usually powerless looked at the scarred classmates around them, one by one they wanted to cry without tears, and the group of peasant men also slowed down the movements of their hands in shock by the sharp horns on the side.

The sunset was like blood, shining on the devastated ruins near the Hou Mansion!
The setting sun is like blood, shining on the people lying on the ground bleeding!
The sunset is like blood! Shine on the crops that have been ruined!
Under the sunset, the group of soldiers of the Praetorian Guard Battalion wearing armor and holding spears, holding spears, approached neatly under the command of the command of the Lingqi.
The shouting soldiers and the bitter tenants, under the faint blue light of the spear, frightened the Yaqi silently, and instinctively retreated!
Near the Hou Mansion, which was still boiling just now, only the sound of armor rubbing and the footsteps of the forbidden army advancing remained.
The general of the forbidden army sat on his horse, frowning, staring at the crowd of brawlers who were retreating in fright.
The situation in front of him was a great headache for him. In this situation, thousands of people are fighting, and if they are all taken together, it is estimated that it will cause a big wave in Daming. You must know the power that these thousands of scholars represent behind them......
Thinking of this, the general clenched the reins in his hand tightly and turned his gaze to the group of farmers.
But in broad daylight, it seems that it is impossible to directly take down this group of farmers.
The general only felt that his head was big for a while, and he secretly greeted the old lady of the general soldier in his heart.
Originally, the news of the scholars gathering to march quickly spread to the forbidden army camp. But everyone knows that this matter is a thankless thing, and in the end, after some prevarication, the chief soldier handpicked the backer who was not hard enough to go out by himself.
Along the way, he sent a number of spies to follow this group of marching soldiers, hoping that these masters would shout a few slogans, and they dispersed after venting.
Unexpectedly, these uncles actually smashed the Hou Mansion all the way, and after razing the Hou Mansion to the ground, they began to toss the nearby farmers. In the end, the peasants were forced to rebel.
These useless sour people, why don't you let them be beaten to death! The general felt a wave of disgust in his heart! But there is no way, if he doesn't show up, this gang of sour people is estimated to have more casualties.
It's just that now that I've come out, what should I do in the face of this situation!
The general, who was desperate, waved his hand to stop the advancing soldiers. Then the reins in his hand shook violently, and the war horse rushed forward.
After circling the brawling soldiers and tenants, the general pulled the reins in his hands, the horses screamed, and the front hooves left the ground and stopped suddenly.
"Gather a crowd to beat the scholars, and you should be beheaded according to the crime, you want to rebel!"
After the general finished speaking to the farmers, he turned over and dismounted, and said to the scholars:
"As a scholar, why do you gather a crowd to fight and do what the people of the city do are doing!"
From galloping on a horse to turning over and dismounting, everything can be accomplished by the generals. Especially at the moment when the war horse stopped suddenly, the white cloak behind him floated up, and he was a heroic general.
The soldiers behind him naturally cheered. Even the soldiers, who had been quiet just now, burst into applause.
Looking at the applauded soldiers and soldiers, the general felt a burst of pride in his heart, and he had practiced this action for many years in vain, and he really tried a hundred times.
After such a handsome play by the general, the tense atmosphere just now began to ease. The scholars could feel the partiality between the generals' words, and they began to slowly boil again.
"General, my father's right capital is the imperial history, these people dare to beat us in public, and I hope the general will ......"
"The editor of the Hanlin Academy is my uncle, this gang of Diao people gathered to rebel! General Wang......"
"General......
For a while, the scholars began to report their homes. In the eyes of these scholars, the group of Qiu Ba in front of them is actually the same as this group of farmers. They are all vulgar and unbearable people. At present, these Qiu Ba are used to report to the family, and it is estimated that they will just raise their heads and arch their hands in normal times.
The general's eyebrows became tighter and tighter, and these gentlemen were so presumptuous by relying on the clear stream of civil officials. Thinking of this, the general waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers to move forward.
Rulin's spear quieted the clamoring soldiers, and also frightened the honest farmers on the side who were already trembling to their knees.
"Ben will ask you why you are like that? It's not about asking your door! The general said coldly.
At this moment, a carriage came galloping despite the obstruction of the forbidden army and stopped between the forbidden army and the scholars and farmers.
Yang Lian, who walked off the carriage quickly, looked at the scarred scholars in front of him, and felt like a knife for a while, these people are the pillars of my future country!
He turned his head to look at the similarly scarred tenants on the other side, was silent for a long time, and sighed softly:
"Pitiful, hateful, pathetic, lamentable!"
Who in the world doesn't know you! The scholars saw Yang Lian, the backbone of the Ming Dynasty, and the atmosphere became fierce again. They all walked to Yang Lian's side, talking about the great feelings of themselves and others to eliminate traitors for the country, as well as the fact that this group of stupid farmers were deceived by traitors and gathered to rebel.
Yang Lian patiently listened to the speeches of the scholars, nodding from time to time, smiling, and comforting! These gentlemen acted like this, although Yang Lian did not agree, she couldn't bear to hit their full righteousness.
The generals on the side, seeing that Yang Lian actually dared to break directly in front of his forbidden army. Qi's face was pale, and he clenched his fists tightly to suppress his anger. As a third-grade general, and Yang Lian, a fifth-grade civil official who has just been promoted, he actually doesn't take himself seriously.
But there is no way, Yang Lian is the most famous young generation in Qingliu, and the general who is a third-grade military general can only suppress the anger in his heart. offended this person, what awaits him will be an impeachment recital from the court.
The general calmed down the anger in his heart, stepped forward, and said to Yang Lian:
"Lord Yang is here? I don't know what it is? These people gathered to fight, and the general was about to put them in prison and report to the emperor for decision. ”
Seeing that the general came to greet him in person, Yang Lian turned around and arched his hand casually and said:
"When the officer arrived, he felt that he should count the casualties first and find a doctor to treat the wounded and sick......
Although Yang Lian's attitude was cold, what he said was reasonable. The general waved his hand and asked the soldiers to separate the soldiers from the farmers, and then went to invite all the doctors around him.
After arranging everything, Yang Lian asked the scholar about the incident, and when he heard that a scholar had died, he was furious for a while. But when he looked at the farmer opposite, he sighed softly.
After thinking for a moment, he walked over to the general who was counting the wounded, and said:
"General, the current matter is already very clear, Jinyi Wei Qianhu Hou Guoxing hijacked the scholars in public, and the scholars lost control of their emotions because the life and death of their classmates were not clear, so what happened in front of them again! Ay! This traitor who has brought disaster to the country and the people! ”
Yang Lian's heart had completely regarded Hou Guoxing as the culprit of this matter at this time. But they forgot why these soldiers gathered outside the prison. Perhaps in his eyes, as long as the starting point is good, the saint apprentices who have a loyal and patriotic heart, even if they act a little wrong, can be ignored.
Hearing Yang Lian's words, the general frowned and said:
"Lord Yang, the people below have just been counted, one scholar died, thirty people were seriously injured, and fifty-eight farmers were seriously injured, I'm afraid this matter is ......"
The meaning of the generals was very clear: no matter what reason the scholars had, the crime of gathering a crowd to make trouble and beating the peasants for no reason could not be concealed.
Looking at the generals around him, Yang Lian thought that the purpose of the current gathering of these scholars was actually to target the traitors of the imperial court. I can only bow and arch my hand:
"General, these scholars, most of whom are the pillars of my Ming Dynasty, are now deceived by the treacherous ministers and have done such absurd things. This official will definitely hold a book tomorrow, and he will never die with the traitorous minister Hou Guoxing. It's just that for now, I hope that the general will calm things down, only catch the murderer, and the others will go back to their own homes. ”
In the current situation, the generals really don't dare to make a big deal about this group of scholars, but they don't dare to be too partial. You must know that the soldiers of the forbidden army guard are all composed of the children of landed peasant families such as Jingshi.
However, after Yang Lian promised that he would contact the righteous people of the imperial court and report to the cabinet for today's righteous act of the general, the general gritted his teeth and agreed to the matter. In any case, this kind of treatment is the best solution for yourself.
Catching one or two peasant households who hurt people with their hands can not only calm the resentment in the hearts of the scholars, but also not be afraid that this group of dirt and dirt will join forces to make trouble. The most important thing is that you can also rely on the strength behind Yang Lian.
Thinking of this, the general called his own soldiers and conducted an interrogation of the surrounding scholars and farmers, and soon found the murderous old man.
Yang Lian looked at the farmers who were crying and shouting grievances around him. Finally, it was proposed that all the losses of the farmers today would be appropriately compensated by the scholars. Do not pursue the sin of beating the scholars of the peasants.
And the murderer Lao Zhangtou's family went directly to prison and was beheaded on a certain day. The tenants of the Hou family, as accomplices, each had twenty rods and executed on the spot.
Later, at the strong request of the scholars, it was decided to burn the wooden plough and stove built by Hou Guoxing in public. In order to wake up the current emperor, put an end to such whimsical and obscene schemes, and stay away from those treacherous villains.
In this way, Yang Lian successfully solved the chaos in front of him, and as for the farmers around him crying bitterly, Yang Lian felt that as long as the compensation was in place, he could also help them rebuild their homes.
Soon the scholars gathered all the wooden plows and stoves, and pressed all the tenants of the Hou family to the side, ready to carry out the twenty great battles.
No one cared about the cries of these tenants, and soon a fire ignited the wooden plough and stove in the middle of the crowd.
Looking at the torch lighting, the old Zhang Tou who was pressed on the ground suddenly roared:
"Oh my God! Bless me to be a dog in the next life, and don't be a man in this troubled world."
In the brawl, the dying old Zhang Tou, who had already been beaten, went down with twenty sticks, and he was absolutely killed!
The farmers on the side, holding the tenants' wives and children, cried loudly on the side.
"Hit!" The cold voice of the general sounded!
Just as the soldiers were about to make their moves, there was a violent tremor from the ground!
