Chapter 29: Clean

"Release people, release people, release people!"

Night...

Tens of thousands of victims were gathered outside the prison in the north of the city: "Doctor Yang is a benevolent doctor, giving us porridge and medicine for free, he is the benefactor of our victims, you arrested him, and we disaster victims do not agree." ”

"No."

"No."

"No."

There are no decent weapons.

Some are just sticks, hoes, rakes, or knives.

But the soldiers said: 'There are more than 10,000 people, and there is no boundary. ’

At a glance, there was a black oppression in the line of sight, and no one dared to despise it in the dark night.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Whoosh...

The prison itself was a small military village, and before the victims could do anything, the people on the wall began to shoot arrows.

"Throw stones, take stones and throw them at them..."

Although the victims did not dare to storm the prison, they also threw stones far away one by one.

That's it.

The two sides faced off in a chaotic and orderly manner.

One side is afraid of the other party's numbers, and the other side is afraid of the court law.

Although the two gangs continued to clash, no greater conflict broke out, and finally dispersed before dawn.

"The situation was unknown last night, and I was worried that if I rushed out, I would be secretly attacked by Ping'an Dao, so I chose not to move."

Morning.

Huang Fuqi found Jiang Xuan: "Senior brother, the people of Ping'an Dao are really calm, we didn't move, they didn't move, last night they were wrapped in 10,000 people, it was really a fight, it's hard to say." ”

After talking about his own side.

Huang Fuqi asked Jiang Xuan again: "Senior brother, you are here..."

"Had a good night's sleep."

Jiang Xuan had nothing to do here, and slept until dawn: "Of course, this may also be the calm before the storm, but anyway, it's not us who are in a hurry, I heard from the people who went down to inspect the towns and villages that the floods in some places have begun to subside, or it won't be long before the victims who stay in the city will gradually return to their hometowns, and I want to see who can't hold their breath first." ”

Those who are in peace will not fly to the heavens and the earth.

The reason why it is difficult to catch it now is that the victims are everywhere and nothing has been investigated.

Once the victims return to the village, those who do not believe in peace can still hide it, you must know that a hundred taels of silver is not a minority, and now that the flood has just passed, a hundred ruins are waiting to be rebuilt, and one or two believers will show their feet and be reported, and the rest will be simple.

One day

Two days.

Three days.

Five days passed in a flash.

"It's really bearable!"

The sky was fine.

The number of people in the city is decreasing.

In order to encourage the victims to return to their hometowns to farm, Jiang Xuan's disaster relief methods have also changed.

As long as you say who you are and what your name is, find three more fellow villagers, and give you ten catties of rice home.

Escaping from the famine is a horde.

The three people were not difficult to find, and many of them were inspired by this policy, and many of them returned to their hearts like arrows, received rice and went home.

But what's the matter.

There is still no news of peace.

Jiang Xuan had already raised the bounty to two hundred taels.

As long as you report a Taiping Taoist, even if it is just to provide clues, as long as you catch someone, you will be given two hundred taels.

But just like that, he still hasn't received any useful news, and there are also some things to chase after the wind and shadows, and he can't do anything at all.

"How's Dr. Yang?"

"The bones are very hard, and the brothers gave him some punishment, but it didn't work, no matter how we asked, we insisted that we had nothing to do with Taiping Dao."

"What about the victims who were captured with him?"

"I also picked a few to be punished, but the statements are similar, they all say that they are disaster victims who are in refuge, and they don't know what peace is at all, and they are now noisily returning to their hometowns to shovel the land."

Speaking of which.

Huang Fuqi said tentatively: "Why don't you let these people go, it doesn't seem like there's any need to spend any more." ”

"There's no hurry."

Jiang Xuan thought for a while and thought: "The others are okay, Doctor Yang, I still think there is something wrong with him, because he is too clean." ”

said.

Jiang Xuan pondered for a moment, and then said: "In this way, you go back to the prison and tell the victims who were arrested with Dr. Yang that the government is offering a reward for Ping An Dao, and whoever wants to be a person of Ping An Dao will now admit that not only is he not guilty of the past, but also give two hundred taels of silver."

Then, you get a private room, take these people to the private room for interrogation in turn, and increase the reward for providing clues to five hundred taels.

Subsequently, pick a few people who look at the less timid and let them go, and then select some people to be punished, and insist that these people who have been sentenced have been reported as chaotic parties, and see if they can cheat something. ”

Huang Fuqi nodded: "Understood." ”

Evening.

Inside the prison.

"Recruit, see if you recruit."

The whip danced: "Cao Laosi has already confessed to you, I will see how long you can still be hard-mouthed." ”

A great punishment awaited.

"I want you to say a name to me, I don't embarrass you, just like Cao Laosi, just say one, if you are willing to say, not only will I not embarrass you, but also give you five hundred taels of benefits, if you don't say it, I will let you see your ancestors."

......

"How?"

"Seven people were tried, and none of them let go, and their mouths were stricter than stones."

Jiang Xuan was curious: "There is no one who even beats and bites indiscriminately?" ”

"Nope."

Huang Fuqi looked depressed: "I'm also very strange, like this, people are confused, if it were me, I would rather report two names casually than report safety, but these people don't know what's wrong, just like the iron beating, being beaten half to death is still holding on, Leng said that he is selling chestnuts, it is normal to know iron sand palms, and I don't know what peace is said." ”

Jiang Xuan chuckled in his heart: "One or two are fine, but seven are so hard, I'm afraid we didn't catch it wrong." ”

There was a pause.

Jiang Xuan instructed: "You go to the county government to find Xiong to catch the head, just say that the torture tools are not enough, and let him move all the torture tools of the county government to the prison." ”

Saying that, Jiang Xuan warned again: "You have to let him see for himself how miserable those who were tortured, and let him know that we are making people bite each other, and several people can't stand the punishment anymore and are about to speak." ”

Huang Fuqi was full of questions: "This is..."

Jiang Xuan spoke: "Although Dr. Yang and the victims living in the medical hall were brought back, some people were not among them, such as Dr. Yang's junior sister and the old account room of the medical hall.

Doctor Yang and these victims are people of peace and security, and there is no reason why his junior sister and the old account office are not right, when the time comes..."

Jiang Xuanle said: "Some people are afraid that they will jump off the wall in a hurry, and they happen to be caught by us." ”

"Senior brother, based on the current situation, we are no longer suspicious, but we can conclude that Dr. Yang and the group of people he took in are the Ping'an Dao Rebellion Party.

In this case, why not serve with punishment, it is expected that among the two or three hundred people, it is impossible for each of them to be hard-headed, as long as there are one or two tricks, the case can be made into an iron case, and one or two small miscellaneous fish are left harmless. ”

Huang Fuqi said bluntly: "There is no need to waste energy. ”

Jiang Xuan shook his head: "The weeds can't be burned, the spring breeze blows and grows, last year, the sect obviously hit Ping'an Dao hard, why Ping'an Dao will show up again this year, it is because the twisting is not clean." ”

Jiang Xuan said: "I am a disciple of the Mountain Gate, this is the first time I have done things for the Mountain Gate, I must be clean, I don't want to go back to the mountain, and next year I will come down for the matter of Ping An Dao." ”
