The light rain in Hangzhou is still falling, and because of the cold weather, in fact, many people are hiding in the house, which avoids chaos.

No matter how loud it was, once the butcher knife was really moved, most people were still scared.

The city of Hangzhou, which had killed people, suddenly became very quiet.

When Mao Wenwen rode a strong brown horse to the mansion where Li Min lived, there was not even a person on either side of the street. Two brocade guards went up and slammed the door open.

When they entered the courtyard, the old man and the young maidservant knelt tremblingly, but they did not see the main man.

Mao Wenwen was a little confused, and then under the guidance of the courtyard, he entered the courtyard again, and when he arrived inside, he found that there were two people sitting and playing against each other. The twist in the hand is black and white.

Jin Yiwei quickly approached with a knife and surrounded the two of them.

These two people, one with a long beard, are called beautiful beards in the folk saying.

One is quite obese and can't see his feet when he looks down.

However, the clothes are all satin, one is blue, the other is green, and the two of them reached out and dropped their fingers, and the fingers were white.

Mao Wenyu saw this detail from a distance, and it seems that they are all rich families who have never done rough work since they were children.

Although the battle between Jin Yiwei and the two of them did not seem to be affected in the slightest.

"The autumn equinox sits in a game, and the bamboo shade is green on the chess. No one saw the bamboo, and heard the sound of falling children. Brother Zixuan, I agreed. The obese man probably won, although he was modest, but there was a smug in his words.

Li Min was sassy, he was also like an old child at the moment, "Come again and again, just now!" ”

Li Zhi stretched out his hand and pressed the back of his hand, "There are no regrets, how can it not be counted?" Besides, if you have a guest in your house, it is important to pick up the guest first. ”

Mao Wenwen came through the pavilion, because of the rain, every step was imprinted on the ground with water stains. The rain did not stop until the wooden table.

"Yes, I have no regrets. Losing is losing, winning is winning, and if you can regret it at will, it will be a mess. ”

The expressions of Li Min and Li Zhi both changed.

Mao language,

The name they have heard for many years.

"Deputy Envoy Mao, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Li Min can say this.

In the seventeenth year of Hongzhi, he returned to his hometown, although they did not have a deep friendship before, but they still met more or less on weekdays.

But the fat man Li Zhi only served as a magistrate at most, and later felt that being an official was not interesting, so it was better to write articles and watch dancing every day. Of course, if you don't have money, don't learn from others.

"It's going to be more than three years." Mao Wenwen knew that Li Min had also been an official in Zhan Shifu at the beginning, "It turned out that I only thought about arresting you in Beijing, but I didn't expect to come to Hangzhou." You know the rules of the court, so you don't need me to say more. ”

That's why Li Min sat here and waited.

And not like some fantasies would think of running away.

"Does Deputy Envoy Mao know how to play Go? Sit down and talk about a game? ”

Mao Wenyu pinched his waist and looked left and right, "Today is an old friend, it should be." ”

Li Min smiled heartily, "Please." ”

"It's just the next game, there is no time for more, so I'm in a hurry to arrest people."

What do you say......

"How many people will be arrested this time?"

Mao Wenyu pinched the piece in his hand, stared at the chessboard, and said, "I didn't say many people." If you catch one person to open the sea, I will catch one person, and if you catch a thousand people to open the sea, I will catch a thousand people. ”

"Why is Your Majesty so determined to drive the sea ban?"

"You're a scholar. But this is a very unintelligent question to ask, because it is not asked to the right person. ”

"The deputy envoy himself doesn't want to know why?"

Mao Wenyu raised his eyes, this question was very interesting.

"Mr. Li, I'm Jinyiwei, I'm still doing well, do you know why?"

"I want to hear about it."

"Because I think less."

Li Min understood when he heard it.

But he shook his head, "It's a pity. ”

"What a pity?"

"Being confused is called smart, and being too smart is called confused. A lot of things in the world are bad here. You say, it's a pity, isn't it? ”

Mao Wenyu suddenly became interested. He held the sunspot and pointed to the rain curtain outside, "Mr. Li, do you know what it's like to hide from the rain in the ruined temple in such a cold weather if you don't have enough food and clothing?" ”

"I know that the deputy envoy starts from the end."

"So, it doesn't matter if you say it's a pity or not."

Li Min still shook his head, "The world needs people like deputy envoys, and it also needs people like this." If everyone doesn't want the meaning of life and death, and doesn't want to think about why, that's not necessarily a good thing. ”

Syllable.

Mao Wenluozi, "You are an official of the imperial court, and you can have the opportunity to go up to Your Majesty." So he went back and wrote a few lines to tell the imperial court that the Li family of Qiantang would obey the holy decree, and all the proceeds of smuggling in previous years would be handed over to the imperial court, and in the future, the merchants would only pass through the city. In this way, everything is still turning around. ”

Li Min didn't speak, "If you lose the game, you will recognize it in the next game." ”

"I still can't figure out why you want to fight with the emperor."

"This is actually the difference between the subordinate and the deputy envoy."

"What you want is the way that satisfies the reader in your heart. But what I want is for the family to wait for me. You don't feel that you are worthy of the world, the world is good, you don't need to be ashamed and ashamed, but your family will definitely not be good, you are ashamed of them. ”

This is the end of the conversation. Mao Wenyu also stood up.

But Li Min no longer looked as relaxed as he had just now, and it seemed like he had suddenly lost his soul.

Li Zhi, the fat man on the side, also felt strange, "Brother Zixuan, what's wrong with you?" ”

"The Qiantang Li clan was destroyed by my hands...... The Qiantang Li clan was destroyed by my hands......"

Li Min only muttered this sentence in the end.

But Mao Wenyu will not give him another chance, he is a deputy envoy of the Jinyi Guard, but he is not a Bodhisattva in the Guanyin Temple. Those words just now were just because I saw the acquaintances I had in the old years, after all, he hadn't met a few acquaintances in so many years.

"Someone."

"In!!" The crowd shouted, and the momentum was like a mountain.

"Take it!"

"Yes!"

Mao Wenyu turned away from them and no longer looked at them, and ordered to his subordinates beside him, "The scholars of Hangzhou City gathered to make trouble, confuse people's hearts, and incite the people to resist the imperial court's national policy of opening up the sea. If there is a resistant, there will be no mercy! ”

"The Last General's Order!"

Then Mao Wenyu didn't stop, rushed outside and rode directly on a fast horse, and went to the governor's yamen with a loud shout.

He was followed by a team of brocade guards, these sturdy men were carefully selected by Mao Wenwen in recent years, one by one, running so wildly on the streets of Hangzhou, there is really a sense of no one to stop, and it also adds more solemnity to the autumn.

All the silence is no longer there at this time.

This group of people gathered, where there is any strict organization, basically checking one is checking a group, so there are constantly people who are kicked in.

After entering, Jin Yiwei can even call the name of the owner, because he can ask.

This picture happened one after another, coming out of the house, some of them were splashing and rolling like shrews, some were scared like lost dogs, and some people were beaten to death and did not admit it, crying that they were caught wrongly, and of course, some of them shouted "Shuo Qi is deep day and night, how strong I can go" and generously went to the disaster.

All of a sudden, the cry of Hangzhou City shook the sky, and the tragic situation was repeated.

Even the people in the government also sighed in the government, anxious, but there seemed to be no good way.

It wasn't until the second day that the situation began to be a little different, and it seemed that the bureau was about to die, and these smart people who had read the book would certainly not just sit at home and wait for someone to arrest them.

Li Min has that awareness, but many people don't have it yet.

So I don't know who came up with a way, a dozen or so people got together, and then talked to each other, and hundreds of people slowly gathered, and they were killed directly on such a large scale...... The man with the knife began to hesitate,

The main thing is that they are all scholars with status.

If it's nothing, then a few hundred people are nothing.

In the midst of this hesitation, the crowd slowly gathered in front of the governor's yamen, and after arriving, these famous scholars did nothing but cry!

What came out of his mouth was nothing more than words like 'Taizu, Taizong'.

That means, I really can't live this day now.

It turned out that Wang Qiong was hiding well in the house, but she never expected to be so handed, besides, how did they come over with the brocade guards all over the street?

When I got outside, I saw it, good guy, Wuyang and Wuyang were all heads.

Mao Wenyu also heard about the situation, and he hurried all the way with Gu Dayong, and then made a detour to enter the house through the back door.

Things have reached this point, maybe this case will be the first major case of the Zhengde Dynasty, and it is also a famous major case since the founding of this dynasty.

The names of these people will also fall on the history books.

Therefore, the movement is so big, no one can easily make up their minds.

After all, the latest divine decree has not yet arrived.

The door of the governor's yamen was closed, Wang Qiong had always been calm, but he was also a little anxious at this time, he didn't dare to say more in the face of Jinyiwei, but he still couldn't help complaining, "Jinyiwei Dasuo Hangzhou City, it was a situation that was defeated with one blow, how could these people form such a scale?" Didn't you notice it before? ”

Mao Wenxin said that labor and management have just arrested a governor of Jiangxi, and if you don't do well, you will be arrested together, who gave you the courage to speak like this, "Wang Zhongcheng, Your Majesty has a holy decree to open the sea in Zhejiang." Before the envoy came, Hangzhou City was already unstable and the people's morale was unstable, but I don't know what the governor yamen did in addition to watching the development of the situation? If His Majesty asks in the future, how does Zhongcheng think the envoy should answer? ”

"Do you want to say that if there are people from the governor's yamen, it will not be understaffed, causing the scholars to gather in groups?"

Wang Qiong was so hard that he was not very comfortable, but this matter was his fault. So there's not much to say.

Gu Da used it to play a round, "According to our family, it is better to pass the current pass first, and the rest is not important." ”

Peng Ze said: "Jinyi Wei killed people when he entered the city, perhaps to deter people's hearts, but his behavior was rough and the reason for killing was too simple, of course these scholars would try their best to resist." ”

Mao Wenyu became angry, "If it weren't for me, see how you can do the big thing of opening the sea, and then the court will blame you and have no regrets." ”

"That's it!" Wang Qiong slammed the table, "Peng Jiwu, you don't have to say a word." Vice Envoy Mao is right, no matter what, the national policy cannot be changed. What is the main and what is the secondary, we still have to distinguish clearly. ”

"How do you divide that? Will you kill with a knife again like before? There are a lot of students outside who are from government schools and county schools? If they all kill them, will my Ming Dynasty still have heavenly principles to speak of? ”

Mao Wenwen and Wang Qiong all calmed down.

They all have emotions, but in the face of big things, they will still control themselves.

"Father-in-law Gu, did you report to the palace?" Wang Qiong asked.

Gu Dayong nodded, "Yesterday, Deputy Envoy Mao entered the city, and the report was written and sent out in the evening." I just didn't write about today's events. ”

"This is a big deal, even if it is troublesome, it will be another letter. In my opinion, I will draft this report, read it, and then hand it in full name. ”

Gu Dayong didn't understand, he was a person in the palace, what did he have to do with the ministers, why should he get involved in this matter.

Besides, he, the eunuch guarding the town, came to show the emperor the silver, and he didn't want to care about these in the place, and hundreds of scholars gathered, which was so big that it hadn't happened since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and he didn't want to have anything to do with him.

In fact, Wang Qiong does have this consideration,

This matter is really big, and he can't carry it alone, so he pulls a few more people over.

“…… Do you want to sign our family? ”

Wang Qiong looked very concerned about Gu Dayong, "Father-in-law! Something big happened in Zhejiang, no matter how things go, let's at least show a big picture of letting go of suspicions and working together. It also let His Majesty know that the officials in Zhejiang are united to solve this matter. In this way, Your Majesty will feel that we are all working hard. ”

"If the father-in-law does not sign. Either the father-in-law is outside of last night's report and no longer reports it, then His Majesty will think, what is the father-in-law doing, why is such a big matter, the father-in-law not reported. Either the father-in-law will play another letter, but His Majesty will also think about how we are still at odds with each other in the face of major matters related to the imperial court, and even think that it is not because we pass the buck to each other that this situation has been caused. Which one do you say is good? ”

Wang Qiong's words were extremely cunning, and the so-called old fox of officialdom was really vividly displayed.

Gu Dayong is a eunuch with a high status, but half of it is exchanged for his life, so when Wang Qiong said this, he immediately felt that it made sense.

"In that case, it's not impossible to sign it."

Wang Qiong turned to ask Mao Yuyu: "What about the deputy envoy?" ”

Zhongcheng is right. We're all in one place, and we're going to solve this problem. ”

In addition, Peng Ze and Tan Wenyi were his subordinates, so he didn't ask any more. So I made up my mind, "The matter is urgent, I'll write it now, and I'll sign it now after I finish writing." ”

Mao said, "Wait." Even so, it takes half a month to come and go at the earliest. If Your Majesty and the princes of the court and the central government discuss for a few more days, it is possible to do so on the 20th. Can we wait 20 days? ”

"What does Deputy Envoy Mao mean......?"

"It was written in the newspaper that we had arrested him."

Wang Qiong and Peng Ze's hearts began to tremble, if they signed this report, they would not be able to get along with the world's scholars.

"Just send them home. Why arrest people?! Peng Ze was the first to object.

"If you don't write this sentence, you won't sign it." Mao Yuyu put down a sentence anyway, "I am the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, I can also give the emperor a report, in my report, I want to write this sentence, if Gonggong Gu does not dislike it, you can sign this report!" ”

Gu Dayong wondered, "Didn't you say that it was better not to separate?" ”

Mao Wenyu gave him a look, secret but easy to identify. So Gu Dayong didn't ask any more.

Over there, Wang Qiong paused. He had something to say to Peng Ze.

"The deputy envoy waits, the official writes first, and if it is not appropriate to write it, then I will talk about it."

Mao Wenyu said calmly: "Okay, that's okay." ”

After that, the people on both sides each found a reason to avoid each other, and left one to command Tan Wenyi to be slightly redundant and embarrassed, his duty is to prevent rebellion, but in fact, the possibility of rebellion is still small.

After all, Emperor Hongzhi has worked hard for eighteen years, even if the new monarch tosses, he will have to toss for a few years, and the people will not survive before they will have careerists, what kind of rebellion is there now.

So, he doesn't really have any tasks.

At the same time go outside,

Gu Dayong quickly caught up, "Brother Mao, but what traps are in there?" ”

Mao Yuyu glanced around, and after confirming that there was no one, he said: "Father-in-law, if you are going to separate the report from them in the end, your father-in-law can sign that report." But you can't just sign them. ”

"Why?"

"Because we're factory guards, we're not like them. I'm not afraid of my father-in-law's jokes when I say it, if I can't do dirty things, brother, I'm not far from death. Today's events can be reported and explained clearly, and you can say whatever you want, but you can't just talk about things and not talk about measures, and just throw the problem to Your Majesty. Because His Majesty will find it difficult to do after reading it. ”

"Your Majesty is uncomfortable, and will endure Wang Qiong and Peng Ze, because they are Wenchen, and Wenchen always makes the emperor uncomfortable. But Your Majesty will not put up with you and me. Because we are factory guards, His Majesty does not demand the same from us as they do. If we are co-opted with them, we can. Then we have to do dirty things, and if they carry the black pot for us, why not? As long as His Majesty is happy. ”

"But if you don't say what to do and hand it over like this, Your Majesty will see your and my names clearly on it, and you will think, what are you and I doing. When I look at it for the second time, the three words of Mao Yu will be particularly dazzling after Wang Qiong. ”

Gu Dayong understands this.

When Mao's three words are dazzling, doesn't Gu Dayong look dazzling?

Factory guards and factory guards, how much difference can they be.

"Brother Mao is really amazing, but I didn't expect that just a report would hide such a mystery!"

Mao Yu made up his mind, "My father-in-law has a reputation." Anyway, no matter what they write for a while, this person will definitely be arrested today. ”

Because he knew that there was a man buried here, and it would not be long. In fact, he still remembers Wei Bin's face. Wei Bin died by turning his elbow outward.

So it was impossible for him to go to Wenchen's thief ship, otherwise Wei Bin would be him after him.

Boom!!

Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the sky.

Mao and Gu were originally sitting, and they got up immediately when they heard the sound, especially Mao Yu, he moved extremely fast, and when he bypassed a rockery and a pavilion, he saw a number of people running around, and he caught one randomly,

"What's wrong?!"

"Someone, someone opened the door! People are in! ”

Mao Yu stomped his feet angrily, "I know that there are people in the government who answer!" ”

It's a pity that he can't bring so many brocade guards to the official office of the governor's yamen, so he said to Gu Dayong in a hurry: "Father-in-law, you go around from behind and bring my brocade guards in." I'll go to the antechamber first. ”

Gu Da didn't say a word, and immediately set off.

Mao Wenyu set off alone and trotted all the way to the front hall.

At this time, the soldiers of the governor's yamen also gathered around the front hall to make a defensive position.

But Mao's language is clear, the door of the governor's yamen can be opened, do you expect these people to help at a critical time? It's good if I don't give you a knife in reverse.

"Deputy Envoy Mao!"

In the place where many yamen soldiers were surrounded, Mao Wenwen heard Wang Qiong calling him, but he ignored it and went straight forward.

There was a small square in front of the antechamber, where hundreds of scholars had gathered since they entered through the gate.

They didn't want to rebel, because they didn't have weapons, but they rushed into the official office like this, Mao Wenyu didn't really understand what they were going to do, or they just vented their emotions.

"Traitor! Traitor! ”

The scholars did not recognize his appearance, but they recognized his clothes. A group of people stepped forward, outstretching their fists, letting go of their voices, shouting as they went. The murder two days ago touched the anger of many people, and they all blushed and scolded wildly, as if they wanted to eat Mao Wen.

Later, Wang Qiong is not an ordinary cowardly official, if he doesn't come forward at this time, the emperor will definitely settle accounts with him in the future, so he also broke free from the guards and walked step by step towards the place where Mao Wenwen was standing.

When he looked from behind, he saw a figure in the rain facing hundreds of people, but the wind and rain could not shake his figure. Then the scimitar is unsheathed and pointed straight ahead.

"Forcibly break into the official office and commit chaos! Those who dare to take a step forward, slash! ”
