The man was called the soul when he was in the ya, which frightened the people of Xianghe.

After seeing the crowd at the scene, the people who didn't believe in the soul really believed it, in order to prevent themselves from becoming fools like the Manchu adults, half of the men in Xianghe County cut off their braids that day!

The leading group of Xianghe County, headed by Ma Youwen of Zhixian County, collectively cut braids.

Secretly, of course.

In order not to be pursued by the imperial court, members of government agencies cut off their braids and glued or sewed them on the hats, so that as long as they wore the hats and did not look closely, no one would know that the braids of the old men were rootless.

At the same time that the Manchurian people were urgently sent to Beijing for medical treatment, the soul demon technique and the method of cutting braids were like radio waves, and they were transmitted quickly.

At first, it only spread around Jingshi, and in just a few days, it spread rapidly throughout Shandong, which had just experienced the Qingshui Sect, as well as surrounding Henan, and to Jiangsu, Anhui and other places.

In order to refute the rumors, the local governments put up clarification notices, but no matter how the government posted the list and how the officials sent officials to the countryside to publicize, the matter of calling the soul was still widely spread, and at the same time, the people began to cut their braids on a large scale.

The reason for the extremely low credibility of the government is the Qianlong Dynasty's policy of selling officials.

Fifty percent of the central officials and seventy percent of the local officials were bought with money, and one can imagine what kind of image these people have in the minds of the people.

In addition, in order to recoup the capital, the officials who spent money to buy officials were extremely greedy in office, which naturally pulled the authority and credibility of the government to the lowest point in history.

An official government that has lost its credibility, whether it tells the truth or lies, does good things or bad things, will be naturally rejected by the people.

Even if you are an official and say that you will go to the east, the people will go to the west.

Things are fermenting more and more, and the more evil they spread, it is said that there is a whole army of eight banners in Xianghe County to call the demons to cast spells and call out the soul. There was also a green battalion soldier who had just quelled the rebellion in Shandong, and on the way back, he suddenly committed suicide by jumping into the canal en masse.

The imagination broke through the initiators in a straight line, and formed a general climate of spontaneous rumors and rumors among the people.

Zhou Yuanli, the governor of Zhili, was the first to receive the report of the soul-calling case, but this governor didn't take this matter too seriously, and he didn't think that it didn't take long for rumors to be flying all over the sky, and even some of the subordinates in the governor's yamen secretly cut off their braids.

When the news came out that Lord Man was called away by the government, the situation began to quickly get out of control, but Zhou Yuanli did not take any effective measures, but still put aside the soul-calling cases reported in various places and did not do anything.

Because he felt that if the government came forward to clarify the rumors, it would make the ignorant people even more panicked, so it was better to deal with it coldly, and after this demonic wind, the people found that there was no such thing at all, and naturally the world was peaceful.

And if this matter is reported now, it is not clear that the emperor will order the people who cut their braids without authorization, which will undoubtedly set off a bloody storm and is not the work of a wise man.

I have to say that Governor Zhou still loves the people and is also a pragmatic and good official.

With the attitude of the Governor-General, the officials below are better than less. Without the control of the government, it has become common to cut braids in the Zhili area, and rumors are circulating everywhere that cutting off braids can keep you safe.

He Xuan, the governor of Henan, was the first to truthfully report the emergency to the imperial court, and he said in his recital that since the soul cry occurred in Henan in July, more than 10,000 people have been found to have cut off their braids in Kaifeng alone.

.......

“... It is also said that the emperor was also called a soul, but fortunately, he cut his braids in time to prevent him from dying. ”

"Is that an exaggeration?"

Jia Liu, who was lying in a sealed carriage and went to the capital to "seek medical advice", was also shocked when he heard what the Fanjun Master said, this is all on Qianlong?

But that's okay, isn't it rumored that Qianlong is not a Manchu recently, but a Han Chinese.

If you combine this rumor with that rumor, one plus one is greater than two.

Witness the chain, perfect fit for it, and Holmes has to shout when he comes: "The truth is about to surface!" ”

"Adults not only use soldiers like gods, but their strategies are even more difficult to resurrect."

Fan Wei admired with a face, Wang Lun wanted to know this soul method, everyone in Shandong cut their braids, in order to save their lives, they didn't need to be beaten by the Wang sect leader, they could take the initiative to fight with the court.

Don't underestimate the influence of rumors, it is certain that in a month at most, the soul can spread all over the country, and then the ignorant people will definitely choose to take the initiative to cut their braids in order to survive.

In this case, how many people have to cut their braids?

This is an effect that many people have worked hard all their lives and can't achieve.

In the hearts of the people, they cut their braids to save their lives in order not to be harmed by soul magic, but in the eyes of the government, cutting braids is against the Qing Dynasty.

Contradictions soon become apparent.

If the government does not suppress it, this braid will be cut faster and faster, and more and more.

It is undoubtedly a corner of the Qing Dynasty, not a rebellion of rebellion.

If the government suppresses it, the people who cut their braids for their lives, will they dare to rebel against the government in order to survive?

The Jiangshan Society of the Qing Dynasty will soon be ruined by rumors.

In the end, the soul of the Great Qing Dynasty will definitely be called!

"It's too much, it's too much! ... I have emphasized to you many times, don't tout me indiscriminately, and don't change the way to slap me on the back, you say that I can use soldiers like a god, but if you want to say that Zhuge Liang is not as good as me, you touch your chest and say that this is praising me, or is it hurting me? ”

Having said that, Jia Liu was still very satisfied with the "soul calling" method he had painstakingly come up with.

You can't just let the people cut their braids, so it's curved.

As long as the result is right, it doesn't matter if the process is right.

Just as he believed in God and science.

You have foreign guns, and I have martial arts.

Seeing that the ghost family questioned himself, Fan Wei immediately said: "I am sincere to adults, and heaven and earth can learn from it." ”

Then he asked for advice on the next course of action.

The Lord of the Ghost Family sat up, moved his muscles, and plucked his nose hair: "Don't worry, let the rumors fly for a while." ”

Deb's voice sounded outside the window: "My lord, it's almost time to get to Jingshi." ”

Hearing this, Jia Liu, who was still in good spirits just now, immediately lay down on the spot, and then put his hands and feet together and continued to lie down.

He wants to use superstition to break the century-old maladministration of the Qing Dynasty.

At the same time, demons are rampant and anti-thieves are rampant, doesn't it mean that there is a big problem with the feng shui of the Qing Dynasty.

...........

Efu House.

Many princes and ministers gathered outside Jia Jiashikai's bedroom, who was called his soul, and Gege in the room was already crying.

The imperial doctor, including the famous Lang Zhong in Beijing invited by the Jia family, has seen it, but none of them know what disease the forehead has had.

I don't know the disease, how to prescribe the right medicine?

Wang Yongying, who recommended Jia Jia Shikai to go to Xianghe to control the water, blamed himself, thinking that if he hadn't recommended Jia Jia Shikai to go to Xianghe, how could he be a good person like this.

When everyone was helpless, the Minister of Military Aircraft and Shen suddenly walked to the side of the King of Qianjun and said in a low voice: "If it really doesn't work, just cut the braids and see, if it is useful, this person will be able to live." ”

------Off topic------

Author's note: The soul-calling case led to about 10% of men in the Qing Empire cutting their braids, and this book has been artistically processed and rationally used to combine this case with politics.

It's pure family talk.
