At noon, Zheng Sanjun, the secretary of the household department, and Zhai Fengchong, the right attendant of the military department, were extremely anxious, and successively sent to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and the Soldiers and Horses of the Five Cities to ask for help returned disappointed.

Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei who was in charge of the army, "went to the banks of Zhenjiang early in the morning to inspect the defense of the naval division", and the 5,000 officers and soldiers stationed in the base camp of the naval division outside the city and the 12,000 officers and soldiers of the four guard posts in the east and south of the city were already in full array.

Zhang Gongwei, the Marquis of Longping, was "bedridden with occasional cold" to recuperate at home, and he received a gathering tour of the people early in the morning. At the time of the emergency report, he was "extremely angry and shocked", and immediately "forcibly dragged the sick body to Nanjing Yulinwei for help, and obtained the rapid support of Yulinwei's 300 horsemen as he wished".

In addition to the 2,500 officers and soldiers who were waiting for the main gates, the remaining 3,000 soldiers and soldiers under the command of Zhao Zhilong of Xincheng have taken to the streets to "carry out severe ammunition suppression".

The commander of the Nanjing Jinyi Guard, Chang Yanling, agreed very happily, but asked the household department to make up the military salary that had been owed for four months first, as long as the money arrived, he "will summon up to 230 pro-troops of the Son of Heaven as soon as possible"!

As for the Nanjing Yulinwei camp stationed at the foot of the stone mountain in the northwest corner of Jinling City, the Donglin Party did not dare to go at all, it was the territory of the filthy eunuchs in Nanjing, and it was the political enemy who swore to stand with the Donglin Party and never got along with each other.

At this time, the Donglin Party celebrities, who have always been invincible, were completely dumbfounded, and before they could discuss how to deal with it, the more than 10,000 "violent people" in Hushan Manor and Ziyang Temple had been divided into two.

Half of them, with the support of more than 20,000 citizens, continued to besiege the gate of Yingtianfu Yamen, and immediately changed their tactics after taking turns to eat a simple lunch, and a team of craftsmen carried out the large square table prepared in advance. More than a dozen leaders stepped forward and jumped onto the table to tell all the people about the atrocities committed yesterday in Yingtianfu, Jiangning, and Shangyuan counties, and loudly announced the names and injuries of the innocent people who had been beaten one by one, which aroused strong resonance among all onlookers.

After the leader of the craftsmen finished speaking, a dozen carefully selected representatives of the farmers jumped on the table, recalling that they had suffered from a terrible drought and chaos in August and September last year. The tragic experience of having to leave his hometown, truthfully stating his experience and encounters with tens of thousands of suffering villagers who fled to Jinling, angrily accusing the government of ignoring and bullying and beating the officials, and listing more than a dozen officials in Jiangning County who took the opportunity to be strong. The cruel deeds of raping helpless people's daughters and colluding with human traffickers to sell orphan girls, I cried bitterly for Ziyangguan and Xiao Zhu Daochang, who were merciful and helped the world.

One by one, honest farmers stood on the high square table, talking about stopping, talking about sadness, and couldn't help but burst into tears, arousing the deep sympathy of countless people.

Hundreds of agitated citizens picked up rotten vegetables and broken bricks on the ground, and smashed them at the gate of Yingtianfu without hesitation.

The cheers of tens of thousands of onlookers shook the sky. Built to last.

In less than half an hour, the closed gate of Yingtianfu had been buried by a hill-like brickry, rags, vegetable gangs, broken shoes, rotten eggs and other debris.

The other half of the artisan farmers silently ate the big meat buns they carried with them, used simple tea, and started to set off as a team again.

They lined up in a long line of five people, held high nearly 100 large slogans, and rumbled to the Yamen of the Sixth Ministry. Wish".

After the tens of thousands of onlookers understood. First there was extreme shock, and then there was thunderous laughter. At least 40,000 Jinling citizens who "want to vent their dissatisfaction" and "fear that the world will not be chaotic" followed closely behind. Some people in the line shouted to warn them to form a crooked line.

Many people picked up all kinds of bamboo poles and sticks on the side of the road, propped up their robes and used them as banners, and shouted the slogans of "Down with corrupt officials and corrupt officials", "We want to eat", and "Donglin Party people and beasts are inferior", and drove mightily to the six yamen of Nanjing outside the front gate of the imperial palace.

The officers and soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, who came one after another, were like facing a great enemy. Begin a stream of sneaky robberies against a handful of people who take advantage of the opportunity to create chaos. Gangsterland. The ruffians launched a merciless attack, and as soon as they found someone trying to steal or cause chaos, the officers and men immediately pounced on them with sticks, tied them up in a solid knot, and dragged them to the side of the street with fists and kicks.

The 300 cavalry of Yulinwei has long been divided into 30 squads and distributed at the hub location. When encountering lawbreakers who dared to deceive and create chaos, they immediately stepped forward to ruthlessly suppress them, which greatly deterred lawbreakers and some underground forces with ill intentions, effectively maintained the public order of Jinling City, and made "the peaceful revelation of the innocent victims. Weiyou. Lines are always in a state of order.

Just after noon, the vast and majestic Liubu Yamen of Nanjing was finally surrounded by tens of thousands of people.

The 7,000 craftsmen and men of Hushan Manor and Ziyangguan blocked the gate and the east and west side gates, shouting slogans such as "The people are the water, the king is the boat", and "If the official is not the master of the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes".

Tens of thousands of citizens cheered as they watched in solidarity, and when had they seen such an orderly and righteous swim in decades. Protest scenes? The more I watched, the more exciting I became, and the more I listened, the more excited I became, and I quickly opened my voice and echoed it loudly.

For a time, the earth-shattering roar sounded like a mountain and a sea, and the huge sound of tens of thousands of people was like rolling thunder, shaking the surrounding buildings and shaking the window lattices, which could be clearly heard ten miles away.

At this point, the officials of the Donglin Party were finally frightened, and many of them were so frightened that they trembled and spoke incoherently, they never dreamed that the people of Ziyangguan and Hushan Manor would be so bold, and hundreds of thousands of timid and fearful civilians inside and outside the city would become so strange and violent.

Zheng Sanjun, the head of the household department, who has been in the officialdom for decades, sat on the high chair in a daze, only to see that his hair was trembling and his face was like ashes.

At this moment, Zheng Sanjun knows better than ever that this sudden large-scale tour. The protest was entirely launched by the noble class, which had been in decline under the continuous suppression of the Donglin Party for decades, and the emerging interest groups composed of Taoist forces and powerful eunuch forces, and was absolutely an organized and premeditated frenzied retaliatory action.

However, Zheng Sanjun couldn't come up with the slightest evidence, couldn't come up with any way to deal with it, and suddenly there was a huge fear in his heart, as if he saw a political struggle that was far more cruel than anything before, and suddenly kicked off in front of his eyes.
