The Jiangning civil uprising did not happen by accident.

A person who has lived two lifetimes, of course, Li Qinzai cannot be so naïve.

First of all, the rumors that are spreading more and more in various parts of Jiangnan are very abnormal, and there must be people behind them who are deliberately spreading them to create panic among the people.

Second, a large-scale civil uprising is not something that someone will stand on a high place and wave his arm, and the people will happily obey, and if no one is behind the scenes, hiding in the crowd to fan the flames, the civil uprising is unlikely to happen.

Looking at the entire Jiangnan, there are not many people who can do this, and it just so happens that the heads of several Wang clans in front of them happen to have this ability.

After the report of the trilogy, several heads of the family present changed their complexions, and their expressions suddenly became panicked.

There was no need to interrogate at all, Li Qinzai could see who was involved with a glance of his eyes.

At the beginning, the Baiqi Division reported that the six family heads gathered in the ancestral house of the Gu family in Wu County, and they didn't know what to discuss in the secret room, so they must have discussed this matter.

Looking around at everyone with a smile, Li Qinzai said leisurely: "Stir up the Jiangnan people's rebellion, put the pot on my head as a messenger, saying that I was forced by my messenger, the news spread to Chang'an, the Manchu Dynasty was impeached, and the Son of Heaven had to recall me to Chang'an to ask for ......."

"Tsk, what a ruthless heart! I've obviously brought benefits to you, so why do you want to hurt me? You really broke my heart......" Li Qinzai sighed gloomily.

The words made the heads of the family even more panicked, and everyone's faces were very abnormal, except for Lu Songxi.

Lu Songxi looked around left and right, and immediately got up and said: "Li Jungong, this matter has nothing to do with my Wu County Lu clan, Lu swears in the name of the ancestors and ancestors that no one of the Lu clan will participate in the conspiracy of this matter, otherwise people and gods will kill him!" ”

Li Qinzai smiled.

In fact, the information has long been grasped, and the people who participated in the conspiracy in the Gu family's ancestral mansion at the beginning did not have the Lu family.

As soon as Lu Songxi finished speaking, the rest of the family heads seemed to have been inspired, so they hurriedly got up to defend themselves.

"I will Ji Yu's clan only heard about this matter, and there is no clear evidence, so I did not report it to Li Jungong."

"I, the Zhang clan of Wu County, have only heard about it, and I have not participated in it, Li Jun Gong Mingjian!"

"I'll only hear about the Kong's family......

"I'm the same!"

The people present defended themselves one after another, but Gu Chengzhang's face became more and more pale, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

Everyone was obviously discussing the conspiracy together, and now they picked themselves up as soon as they turned around?

Sure enough, in the face of huge interests, the temperance is more fragile than the love between the ennefactor and the prostitute.

Li Qinzai laughed and said: "You don't have to be like this, I'm just joking, I believe that this matter is a misunderstanding, there is a debtor who is wronged, I will only investigate the first evil in this matter, and I will not be involved." ”

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and there was a little weakness on their faces.

As for the conspiracy, they did participate, but it was only a conspiracy, in fact, they basically didn't do anything else except conspiracy, spreading rumors, and stirring up civil uprisings were all done by Gu Chengzhang.

Saying that he has nothing to do with this matter is probably the truth...... Right?

Li Qinzai remained silent, and the expression on his face remained friendly and cordial.

If the civil rebellion really wants to be investigated to the end, none of the people present will be able to run away except for Lu Songxi.

But although Li Qinzai is a Qincha, he is not so awesome as to kill all the Jiangnan Wang clans, if he really does this, don't say that he is a Qincha, and even Li Zhi's position is afraid that he will not be able to sit firmly.

The world's families are cold, and they will not allow the imperial court to exterminate the Jiangnan Wang clan.

So, of course, I choose to forgive.

However, forgiveness is forgiveness, but the mastermind of this matter cannot be let go.

Li Qinzai quickly glanced at Gu Chengzhang, and said with a smile to the subordinates next to him: "The mastermind of the civil uprising will talk about it later, and retreat." ”

The part respectfully retreated.

Li Qinzai smiled at everyone and picked up the wine cup, and said: "Let's talk about business today, there are still many things to discuss, everyone, first drink a full glass, I respect all the family masters." ”

…………

It is more than 50 miles northwest of Daying outside the city of Gusu, it is a low-lying land on the shore of Taihu Lake, this place is nameless, the land is fertile, the water and grass are abundant, the willows by the lake are still around, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, it is the typical scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.

Nearly 10,000 people gathered in the civil rebellion, walked from Jiangning to the shore of Taihu Lake overnight, and stopped in this low-lying place to rest temporarily.

The leader of the rebellion was Sun Housheng, a middle-aged man in his 40s, who was originally a small landowner in a village on the outskirts of Jiangning.

"Small landlord" means that the family is well-off, but it is not wealthy, and when natural disasters come, the family has food in stock, and the family does not starve to death.

Sun Housheng's name owns about 300 acres of land and more than 20 tenants.

This popular rebellion was instigated by Sun Housheng, because the officials of Jiangning City came to his house to measure the land, and the land under his name had been concealed from nearly 100 mu.

Who knew that this time Li Qinzai ordered a new survey of the land, there were hundreds of cavalry divisions staring, the officials did not dare to deceive anymore, Sun Housheng made the money useless, which means that he has to spend a lot of money and grain every year, and hand it over to the government for tax in vain.

So Sun Housheng was very dissatisfied in his heart, and the small landlords in the nearby radius complained a few words when they gathered, and then he found that the small landlords agreed with his complaints, so there were more and more complaints, and the words became more and more intense.

A few nights ago, a mysterious figure found him and promised him the benefits of 1,000 acres of fertile land, and what Sun Housheng wanted to do was to gather the nearby landlords and farmers, and then instigate a few more words, and everyone petitioned Jiangning Assassin Shi together, asking the imperial court to stop measuring the land and reduce the taxes on farmland.

A thousand acres of land is a huge benefit for Sun Housheng, and he really can't refuse.

Impulsively, Sun Housheng agreed.

However, when the nearby landlords and farmers were instigated, Sun Housheng gradually found that the situation was not good, and the whole thing was no longer under his control, and for some reason, for some reason, nearly 10,000 people had gathered together, as if there was a pair of invisible hands behind him, helping him rapidly expand his power.

The local lord and the people gathered, and some people in the crowd shouted to march towards Gusu City, and after meeting the petition of the Son of Heaven, Sun Housheng finally realized that he seemed to have caused a popular rebellion with his own hands.

The people's rebellion is equivalent to a blatant rebellion, and they want to punish the nine clans.

Sun Housheng couldn't bear it, he wanted to run away with his family. But he found that he could no longer escape.

As the people mutinied the team marched towards Gusu City, there were inexplicably more mysterious characters around him, staring at him all the time, and the family was also separated from him, and he didn't know who was guarding him.

Things have developed to this point, and Sun Housheng is completely out of his own.

He inexplicably became the leader of this popular uprising, of course, he knew better that once the imperial court suppressed it, he would be the first to be stabbed.

When the team marched to the shore of Taihu Lake, Sun Housheng suddenly found that a turning point had come.

A strange knight in armor rushed to him and relayed a message to him.

When His Royal Highness King Xun, the fourth prince of today's son, has arrived in person, he is ten miles in front of the people's rebellion team at this moment.

His Royal Highness King Xun wanted to meet Sun Housheng, and His Royal Highness swore in the name of Heaven that he would never hurt Sun Housheng in the slightest.
