Chapter 121

The civil unrest has risen, and there is no room for delay, and the next morning, He Ran entered the palace to make sure Su Pingjiang, ordered several colleagues from the Supervision Department and the Criminal Department, and after some preparations, he left the bell city in the afternoon.

The end of Chaotian County Road is less than 300 miles away from Wangcheng, and the group arrived at the place of the incident - Xiangwu Village at noon three days later.

When he came to the barracks, the commander of the army, Huan Zeng, heard that the military division was coming, and hurriedly went out of the tent to pay respects, and said: "I don't know that the military division is here in person, and the last general has not had time to greet him, please forgive the military division." ”

He Ran asked with a straight face: "What about the casualties on both sides?" ”

Because the military advisor did not let him be exempted, Huan Zeng bowed and said: "The soldiers killed seventeen people in the battle and killed more than fifty mobs. ”

He Ran raised his eyes to look at the village halfway up the mountain, and asked coldly, "Why don't you attack it?" ”

Seeing the military advisor's expression, Huan Zeng was already panicked in his heart, and said: "The mob swore not to surrender, and the county guard was afraid that the trouble would be out of control, so he stopped. ”

Zhuyin asked, "General Huan, get up, where is Lord Du?" ”

Huan Zeng finally didn't dare to straighten his body too straight, and replied, "It's in the tent not far away." ”

Without waiting for orders, someone hurried to summon him.

He Ran walked towards the big tent and ordered, "Let the soldiers and horses in front of you withdraw." ”

Huan Zeng hurriedly gave the order, and then waited outside the tent with trepidation.

He Ran sat in the center, Zhuyin and Kou Wei were separated from the left and right chiefs, and Wu Shilang of the Criminal Department accompanied the next head.

"Huanzeng, you come in for me!" He didn't need to be ordered, he shouted directly outside.

Huan Zeng couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly bowed his head and entered the big tent.

"I ask you, on whose orders did you send troops? When did you leave the station? ”

"The last general was ordered by the county guard at noon on the second day, and the troops were ordered to leave the camp on the fourth day."

A smile hung on the corner of He Ran's mouth, and he said: "I took the order at noon on the second day, and I only dispatched on the fourth day, you really manage the army well." ”

Huan Zeng defended: "The military division, who could have gone out on the day he received the order, was delayed for two days because the deputy general Zhong Min obstructed it in every possible way and instigated his headquarters to disobey the order. ”

"Why did he obstruct it?"

He thinks...... It is not advisable to move troops, but it is advisable to appease. But the mob has beaten the officials, and there is no way to correct the law of the country without punishment. ”

"Where is Zhong Min?"

"The last general has sent him to stay at the station."

He Ran nodded, ordered someone to summon Zhong Min to come quickly, and then said: "Receive the order on the second day, and move the troops on the fourth day, why did I get the military report on the thirteenth?" Don't you know military discipline? ”

Huan Zeng lowered his head and said: "Lord County Shou said that he would report to the court. ”

He Ran snorted and said, "It seems that you really don't understand military discipline, he reported to the local government, don't you know how to report to the military department when you use soldiers and horses?" ”

Huan Zeng knew that he was guilty, hung his head lower, and said: "The last general thought that he would be done with a trip with the troops, but he didn't expect ......"

He Ran said sharply: "Don't you need to report if you take the troops on a trip!" ”

"The last will be convicted, and he will be punished." Cold sweat has been seen in the forehead of the ring increase.

He Ran got up and walked to him, told him to raise his head, and then stared at him and said, "You won't break the law for no reason, do you say it yourself, or let me investigate?" ”

Huan Zeng's legs were weak, and his voice trembled: "The last general really didn't expect it to be like this, at that time, the people sent by the county guard said that as soon as the army arrived, those rabble would be scattered, and there was no need for the soldiers to do anything, and after they were dispersed, the officials would take over the following affairs." ”

He Ran shook his head slowly and said, "That's not what I asked. ”

Huan Zeng knew that he couldn't prevaricate, so he hesitated and said, "Lord Du...... Lord Du is not thin in the end, and this popular riot is ...... It was aimed at Lord Du, he didn't want the court to know, and wanted to calm down as soon as possible, so he found the last general, ....... ”

He Ran sat back on the table and said to Kou Wei: "As we expected. ”

Kou Wei sighed, and before he could speak, Zhong Zhengyu reported: "Chaotian County Guard Du Ting is waiting outside. ”

He Ran said to Huan Zeng: "Hand over the soldier seal letter and wait for the crime." Then he got up and gave up the main position, arched his hand to Kou Wei, and said, "I have received the right to increase the army, it is time to give this main position to the lord, and the rest of the matter will be decided by the lord." ”

Kou Wei got up and said, "How dare the military advisor be in the main position here?" Moreover, it is rare to catch up with the military advisor to ask about things, and the lower officials just happened to observe and be taught, so it is better for the military advisor to cut it. ”

"Above the court, there is no ranking of officials, and those who enforce the law should be in the main position, not to mention that the adults are the great judges of the court, even if the city guards ask about the case, I have to give way."

Let it go again and again, Kou Wei whispered: "The lower official is in charge of the post of the chief lawyer, and the people below still don't know, at this moment, it is better to show people as the head of the supervision department, this case involves the army and chaos is not trivial, or the military division is cut and seized, just as an example for the lower officials." ”

He Ran nodded, turned to Zhuyin, groaned for a while, and arched his hand: "This case Lord Kou didn't accept it, and he should have asked Lord Zhongshu to cut it, but because it involved the military, I will take it as a substitute, and temporarily deal with it as a minister of trusteeship, and ask Lord Zhongshu to correct it in time if it is inappropriate." ”

Zhuyin arched his hand and replied, "It should be so, Master Kou and I will listen and be taught. ”

"It's supervision and supervision." He Ran smiled and sat back on the throne, and first ordered: "Please patrol Lord Huang." ”

In a moment, Huang Wan entered the account, she didn't know what He Ran suddenly called her to do, and stood with her hands down after giving the salute.

He Ran instructed the subordinates in charge of military affairs: "Temporarily hand over the military power of the Huanzeng Department to Lord Huang." Then he said to Huang Xuan: "Order this group of people and horses to return to the camp, not to leave the camp one step, if there is a disobedience, beheaded, Zhong Zheng is temporarily your deputy general, and lead a thousand Tibetan Xiangu disciples to order." ”

Huang Wan took the order and left.

He Ran sent another order: "Find a vacant land in front of the village, erect the banner of the military division, tell the villagers, and choose three leaders to come and negotiate with me." ”

After arranging these, He Ran ordered the guards to pour tea with everyone, and he leisurely chatted with Wu Shilang of the Criminal Department about the last banquet, ignoring the dusty Huan Zeng on the side.

Zhuyin reminded: "Lord Du is still waiting outside, why don't you ask him first?" ”

He Ran said: "Let's let him testify with the people face to face, so that the people will feel fair." ”

Although Zhuyin disagreed, it was inconvenient to talk about it on this occasion.

Soon after, the red man came to report that the venue had been arranged.

"Let's go." He Ran said and stood up and took the lead in walking out, and when he arrived at the tent, he turned around and said to Huan Zeng, who was at a loss: "General Huan, please too." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Huan Zeng bowed and followed behind, and Zhuyin gave Hong Yan a look, and Red Yan understood, and stepped forward to hand over his sword.

Du Ting, the Chaotian County Shou Du Ting, who had been waiting outside the tent, was already flustered at the moment, and he didn't know why the military division didn't summon him for a long time, because the front of the tent was all guarded by the military division, and he didn't dare to get too close to eavesdrop. At this moment, seeing that the military advisor came out, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Why use the military advisor, the Zhongshu order and all the big ** to come in person for some small things, Du Ting has lost his welcome, I hope you will forgive your sins." ”

He Ran said with a smile: "My lord is really calm, this matter is not small, it is nothing if there is a civil riot in the newly acquired land, but there is no such big mess in that place in the area where the new policy has been implemented for more than half a year." ”

"The lower officials are derelict in their duties, the lower officials are derelict in their duties, but everything is under control, please go into the city to rest first, and the lower officials will go to ask the adults for their guilt after dealing with the affairs here."

"What to do? Kill all these people? Or is there something good about the adults to make them obedient? I don't think adults would have waited until this time if they really had a good plan, would they? ”

"This ......" Du Ting listened to the military advisor's tone not good, and then looked at the ring increase behind him, and the smile on his face stiffened a little.

"Since the people want to see me by name, then the adults will come with us to meet them." He Ran said that he would not look at him anymore, and walked in the direction of the village in all directions.
