The border soldiers who held their breath kicked the door very hard, and they were frightened to see the gentry who were escorted to the queue to identify with them, and secretly rejoiced that when they were dragged out of the house in the middle of the night, the soldiers were still gentle. It wasn't just the gentry who went to the banquet last night who were arrested, they also confessed many more.

There are the second officials of the Wuzhou prefect's yamen, such as those who are the same as the governor and the general judge; There is also Cangwu County, where the government is located, the six-room scribe in the county government, the head catcher and the horse fast, etc., without the collusion of these people, the assassins are not so easy to touch the Wuzhou capital city of the army, you must know that Lu Dao Shipu is stationed here, and it is quite a time when the governor of Liangguang is temporarily stationed here, without the cooperation of the traitor, is it really a decoration for the imperial court?

The men were identified by the gentry, who came with the soldiers and took them away, and the front and back doors were sealed. Those border soldiers were so angry that they dared to take out the Shilin shelf or officialdom, and they were all kicked over, dragged out by their hair, and even threatened: "Mr. Rongcheng is a kind-hearted person, teach the brothers to clean their hands and feet when they come out, and not to offend their daughters...... The brothers didn't dare to go against his old man's wishes, but if they dared to break the seal or come out over the wall, they would be rebellious, and they would kill you and other pickled goods, but it would not be considered disobedient to Mr. Rongcheng! ”

There is a family in front of the door of the Jinshi pole, do not believe in this evil, but someone really said that on the seal, the seal of the military affairs, to seal the door of his house is really ridiculous, in accordance with the law, so they pushed the door out and scolded, and said that they wanted to go to Beijing to complain and so on, the gang of border soldiers turned around and killed it, it was really a house of three entrances. Straight to the point of bleeding, the chicken dog is not left.

So no one dared to speak out again.

On this day, Wuzhou Mansion was really empty, and everyone flocked to the school to see Ding Rongcheng's public trial of the rebellious gentry officials, those who were arrogant on weekdays. He was hated off, and his cape was put on the side, as if he had been defeated by a rooster.

Not all the people involved in the case confessed honestly, and when they proposed that the magistrate of the county came up, the guy was extremely tough, and he craned his neck and shouted: "I want to get rid of my position as an official and become a newspaper officer." Ding Rongcheng! There is no law, and there is no father! The lower officials must participate in a book, among the scholars. In the end, it will be you who cover the sky with one hand! ”

In fact, what the magistrate is shouting is right. Ding Yi does not have the right to appoint and dismiss the county, not only Ding Yi, who participates in military affairs. Shi Pu, the governor of Liangguang, also did not have such the right to appoint and dismiss. Even the prefect and the political envoy do not have direct personnel power, and it is up to the officials to decide on such a punishment if they want to appoint and dismiss the prefect.

It is true that as the superior of the prefect, whether it is the prefect, the political envoy, or the governor of Liangguang such as Shi Pu, he has the power to wear small shoes for the prefect - the superior wants to find fault with the subordinate, and there is no way to worry about it? Therefore, Shangguan is often dissatisfied with his subordinates. It is said, "Go down and listen to the ginseng." "The prefect or other superiors went to the county to visit the prefecture. Then this county is definitely in big trouble, and usually the officials will also follow the instructions.

However, the so-called "thousand-year-old Qin political system", that is, the county system, according to the right theory, is indeed that the appointment and dismissal of the county magistrate are all from the ministry. The superior has jurisdiction and has the power to evaluate the year-end evaluation of the subordinates, but does not have the power to appoint and dismiss. So Nazhi County had no fear and roared there: "Ding Rongcheng, if you have the ability, you will kill the lower officials, otherwise, today's affairs will not be good in the end!" ”

This can confuse the people watching the excitement below: Isn't Lord Ding more officials than the magistrate? Why can't you get rid of the black yarn of Zhixian County?

Ding Yi was not in a hurry, and called those gentry and others to come up one by one to interrogate, and laid out the things about how to collude with Hou Dagou, how to plan the assassination, and how to lure Shi Pu to lead the troops out of the city, but Ding Yi said to the magistrate: "Answer well, Ding will naturally report to the Ministry of Officials according to the law; If you mess around, you can do it, and you can do it! In other words, if the magistrate wants to talk nonsense, Ding Yi will not tell him any laws.

But Zhixian also has his thoughts, knowing that Bai Shipu was lured out of the city, Ding Yi sent a thousand people out of the city to rescue, Zhixian has a clear heart, there are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of Hou Dagou in Duqiao Mountain, and there are also newly attached rebels, I am afraid that there will be no less than tens of thousands of people, just with these thousands of people, it is simply to send them to death.

Report to the ministry? I'm afraid that after cleaning up Shi Pu in the next two or three days, Hou Dagou will come to besiege the city!

Therefore, the magistrate has the mentality of not suffering immediate losses, but he must answer all questions, in case Ding Yi is unreasonable.

Listening to the confessions of the magistrates and gentry on the stage, the people below were all stunned. The question was almost over, Ding Yi was still afraid that the people would not understand, so he stood up again: "Fathers and fellow villagers, what kind of good goods is Hou Wei?" He came to Wuzhou, did he only rob the government and not the people? When the students were in Huaiji, they originally only brought their entourage into the city, but because of the Hou rebel department, robbing the people, and raping women, they were so angry that they couldn't sit idly by, put life and death out of the way, and fought with them! If it is really as planned by these beasts, in the future, Hou Dagou's soldiers and horses will come, and they will rob whoever they want, and whoever they like will rob whomever girl they like, and everyone will be like a big animal in captivity...... People say, "How can you do that?" Can you watch your own daughter-in-law being snatched away by Hou Rei? ”

The fierce ones shouted below: "This must not work! "Whoever touches my family, I will kill his whole family!" There are also cowardly people, so they pulled the people around them to kneel down and kowtow, and only praised: "Lord Ding! You are the master of the blue sky, you have to call the shots for the small people! If it goes on like this, how can there be a way to live! "Adults save the little! ”

Ding laughed when he heard it, but this is the rhythm he wanted: "Don't be afraid, Ding should be the master of everyone, but these people wait, what bad deeds do they have on weekdays, please expose and report it on the spot, after Ding taught people to record it, with the certificate, it is good to avenge the fathers and elders!" ”

At the moment, everyone is afraid, and if the county master is allowed to sit in the hall in the future, then I am afraid that everyone will really become two-legged sheep, and let Hou Dagou's soldiers toss. So some people began to come out to expose the gentry's lawlessness on weekdays, and it was okay at first, but later, it was basically "chickens stuffed with sand, geese and sheep blowing, selling salt mixed with ash...... Rice and wheat are moistened, and meat is poured with water...... "Anyway, whatever bad things that everyone has heard of since ancient times, they will be piled up on the gentry and officials kneeling on the stage."

At this time, Zhao Fu hurriedly came to report Ding Yi: "It's not good! The prefect wants to die! ”

Ding Yi smiled bitterly when he heard this, and then went to the stage and said to the people below: "Father, old folks, the prefect is loyal to the monarch and loves the people, but there is such a dog official under his rule, but the prefect can't think about it, the students have to persuade him, is it possible that such a dog official lets him live, and the prefect is such a good official, but he watches him die?" ”

This was said bluntly, and the people all said yes when they heard it. In fact, is the prefect a good official? How do these people, who are trembling and cautious when they see the catch on weekdays, understand? It's just that Ding Yi said that the magistrate is a bad official, and watching him confess one by one on the stage, it was really bad; Now Ding Yi said that the prefect is a good official, but everyone subconsciously believes it.

So Ding Yi and Zhao Fu hurriedly got on the horse and went to the prefect's yamen. It's just that since Ding Fang left the school, there are people with northern accents among the people who are inciting: "Damn, such a dog official, look at Ding Rongcheng can't take him, I'm afraid that there are people in the court who support him, even if he reports to the ministry, maybe he will change places to be officials!" "There is another humanitarian, "Hou rebelled into the city, and it was not only the government that harmed the government, but also the few Zhuangzi outside the West Gate, not only the women were robbed, the floating wealth was plundered, and the men were all killed, and the dozens of acres of fertile land in the family, as well as the wine farm, were all taken away by the magistrate......

This thing feels like a spark falling on the hay, and it is lit up at once, and immediately the crowd is surging, and the people have squeezed forward, and most of the officers who maintain order have been secretly kicked several times by the angry people, looking at the border military on the side of the town, they are afraid that they will also be affected in a while, who dares to do their best to stop it?

In fact, Nazhi County has a fart relationship in the imperial court, if he really has some connections, who will collude with Hou Dagou? It was precisely because he felt that he couldn't climb up, and there was no one to worry about in his hometown, that he wanted to join forces with Hou Dagou and be a genuine Baili Hou, so he would organize people to do such things.

But the people didn't care about him so much, and almost instantly, more than a dozen squires were surrounded by the crazy people, and after being kicked down, countless fists and feet beckoned down, and it was really silent for a moment. The magistrate looked a little frightened, but he shrank back desperately, and shouted to the border army: "Red guy, still don't protect the lower officials?" In less than three or two days, Hou Dagou broke the city, if there is no official, you and the others will wait to die! ”

"Fuck you!" The border army angrily kicked him back to the platform.

The magistrate smiled frantically and said, "Okay, let's take a look at the lower officials, how do you survive after the city is broken!" Do you really think that the thousands of people who went out of Lu today will be able to save Shi Taibao back? Hahaha, I'm not afraid to tell you that there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Duqiao Mountain! The thousand of you are sent to death! ”

This made those border soldiers stunned for a while, because they were not optimistic about the thousands of people led out of the city by Yang Shou at the same time.

Perhaps, Ding Rongcheng is just bragging?

Suddenly, such thoughts came to their minds.

Because they had fought with Hou Dagou's soldiers and horses, and rushed past the rebel army that surrounded Shi Pu, they knew the combat power of the other party. Not to mention a thousand people, even four or five thousand cavalry didn't rush over, a thousand people, is it really because they are Ding Rongcheng's soldiers, and then they give birth to three heads and six arms?

Although they didn't really help Zhixian get out, there was a deep helplessness in the eyes of each other looking at each other.

Because of the words of the magistrate, they had to face up to a reality, that is, the reason why the thousands of people brought by Yang Shou have not been defeated and have not fled back yet, or it is not that they have successfully received Shi Pu, but that they have been wiped out!
