Chapter 454: The reason is getting smarter
When the people at the feast heard this, they knew that something was wrong.
Seeing Cui Pu get up, Wang Qiqi hurriedly grabbed him. "Where are you going, what's going on?"
"It's nothing, someone is deliberately looking for a medicine store today, isn't this deliberately making me unhappy? In that case, then they don't want to be happy! Now I'll go and see who dares to make trouble at this time!" Cui Pu said coldly, pushing his hand away.
As soon as Wang Qiqi heard that something had happened at the pharmacy, he didn't dare to stop him anymore, so he said, "I'll go with you." β
"I'll go too!" Mu Jiaojiao said.
Subsequently, Guo Tingshi and others also expressed their desire to follow them to join in this fun.
The matter was urgent, and Cui Pu didn't shirk much with them, so he said: "If you want to go, just go with me!"
After saying that, he took Mu Jiaojiao's hand and strode out.
The place where the incident happened is on the side of Fanfang, which is still a little far away.
Cui Pu drank the wine, was in a rage, and didn't bother to ask someone to set up a slow past, so he directly led a horse, sat with Mu Jiaojiao and the two of them, and rode the horse and whipped away over there.
At the entrance of Fanfang, there is also a shop for applying medicine, which is the only shop in Guangzhou that is not open in the port. This is specially open to those newly moved Hu people after Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu discussed. That is to say, as long as a Hu person moves in, no matter where they come from, they must come here to register and receive medicine, and then they can move in.
Now, it's this shop that has an accident.
When Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao arrived, there were already many people outside the shop. The couple got off the horse and tried desperately to get to the front, and saw several tall Hu people occupying the shop, and there was a door panel at the door of the shop, and an old woman of the Hu people was lying on the door panel. A little lady with a beard knelt beside her and was crying loudly. After listening carefully, I found that she was crying that they had just come here, and they were forced to drink this medicine, and when the old woman returned, she was convulsed and bruised, and died in a short time!
They came all the way and drank the bowl of medicine without touching anything else. Therefore, they decided that the problem must be with the medicine, and that was the responsibility of the pharmacy. So, the family rushed over together and directly surrounded the pharmacy. Others rummaged through the room and turned out all the medicines that had been placed in the back hall.
Cui Pu's sharp eyes found that someone secretly untied a bag of medicine in his hand and poured it into it while he was opening the sack.
Then, they immediately threw the sack to the ground, and one of them grabbed a handful and looked at it pretendedly, and then shouted: "Look, strychnine! This is a highly poisonous medicine, and these people are so black that they actually put strychnine in the decoction!"
The little lady of the Hu people, who was kneeling on the ground and crying, suddenly shouted again: "A-Niang, we should have listened to you and not come to settle in this place." We live a good life in our homeland, although we are not rich and expensive, but we don't have to worry about food and clothing. As a result, when we arrived at this place, because they were disgusted by the government and occupied the place of their Han people, they thought about us like this...... A-Niang, you died unjustly!"
When the Hu men heard this, they also knelt down and cried.
Cui Pu immediately frowned.
He underestimated the mind of the troublemaker. In doing so, they simply intended to stir up disputes between the Hu and Han ethnic groups.
In this place of Guangzhou, Hu and Han live together, and there are 60,000 Hu people living in Fanfang alone. These people have different living habits and religious beliefs from the Han Chinese. Moreover, most of the Hu people have a strong temperament, the weather in Guangzhou is hot, and people's hearts are also impetuous and easy to get angry. The Han people did look down on the Hu people from the bottom of their hearts, and the two sides often clashed.
Now, this group of people has directly raised the Hu-Han conflict to the official level, that is, it has led the fire to him. If it is not dealt with in time, it is very likely to trigger a rebellion of tens of thousands of Hu people in the entire Fanfang, and then the matter will be a big deal.
And over there, the Hu people in that family screamed, cried, and made a noise, attracting more and more Hu people to come and watch.
Also considering the complicated environment here, Cui Pu specially sent four people to come over to see the shop. Seeing that the situation was not right, they hurriedly tried to restrain this group of people, so that they would not scream and ruin things. But when he met a big man, the big man immediately rolled on the ground and shouted: "The people of the government are beating people! It's not enough for them to poison my mother, but now they have to kill people and kill people!"
As soon as these words came out, the onlookers were obviously excited.
When Cui Pu saw it, he was even more angry. Just as he was about to lift his feet and step forward, Mu Jiaojiao grabbed him.
"Don't move yet. She said in a low voice, "Look at those people, are they all practitioners?"
Cui Pu took a closer look and realized that this was indeed the case! These big men of Hu walked steadily, and they walked with a tiger. Although they are deliberately dressed roughly, they have sharp eyes, and they clearly don't look like ordinary people.
In this way, Cui Pu has a bottom in his heart.
"You stand here now, don't go out. He whispered.
"There's my apprentice there. Mu Jiaojiao only said.
Cui Pu sighed helplessly. "Okay. Then you also have to remember to always follow me, don't run around, and don't let that group of people touch you. β
"Got it. Mu Jiaojiao nodded obediently.
Cui Pu strode forward at this time, shouting: "Stop it all!"
The people on their side immediately stopped moving, but the group of Hu people screamed louder and louder, howling as if Cui Pu was about to kill them.
Ah Yuan hurriedly came to Mu Jiaojiao: "Master, the apprentice made a mistake. β
"It's okay, none of this has anything to do with you. Mu Jiaojiao said softly, and squatted down to check the condition of the old woman of the Hu people.
Ah Yuan whispered: "I have already checked it when the person came just now, and I am out of gas, and it is indeed strychnine poisoning." β
They were so ruthless! They really killed a human life! Mu Jiaojiao's heart was shocked.
When Cui Pu heard this, he was also surprised, and hurriedly glared at those Hu people: "You all shut up in this mansion!"
The Hu people still wanted to howl, and Cui Pu said: "If you really want to seek justice, then obediently tell the matter 1510." If you howl like this for no reason, then don't blame the government for arresting you and returning you to the government for the crime of disturbing order!"
"You heard it! They are really in the same group as the government, and now the government has come to help them speak!" When the Hu man heard this, he yelled again.
didn't give Cui Pu the prefect any face at all.
It seems that they are hoping that Cui Pu will quickly order someone to arrest them back, so that things can get bigger and bigger.
Cui Pu gritted his teeth with hatred.
Why does this person feel so familiar with this person's shameless energy? If you think about it carefully, it is clear that he is the same virtue as Wei Tingshi!
Now, he seemed to be able to think about who was behind this person.
This group of people is clearly here to make trouble, anyway, they are noisy and noisy, and they don't give them a chance to speak at all. The mouth is also a few sentences back and forth, what kind of government is going to kill people, they can't live, the court discriminates against Hu people, etc., etc., and the words are extremely inciting.
Now, it's not moving him, and it's not moving him.
Cui Pu was angry when he heard it.
His fists were clenched at his side, and he wished he could rush up and punch him right now.
It's just that, in this way, it will confirm their accusation of abusing the Hu people.
At this time, I saw Mu Jiaojiao come behind the person who was jumping the most, raised his hand and knocked lightly on his back, this person's cry stopped abruptly, and the whole person fell softly like a noodle.
Seeing this, the other Hu people who were howling happily immediately stopped their shouts and looked at Mu Jiaojiao in disbelief.
Only the little lady with a beard screamed again: "The prefect's wife has killed someone!"
The others immediately came back to their senses and shouted again.
Mu Jiaojiao confirmed it now - they are here to make trouble!
She sneered at the little lady who was huren: "You know me? Didn't you just come here, how do you know my identity? Could it be that before you moved to Guangzhou, you also specially studied what the prefect and the prefect's wife looked like?"
The little lady of the Hu people screamed, and hurriedly said: "Didn't that person claim to be the prefect?
"You're right. Mu Jiaojiao smiled lightly, "It's just that I didn't kill him, I just saw that he was not in the right spirit, so let him rest first." β
"It's just a faΓ§ade you've made to show outsiders. When you go back and wait for no one, you will definitely do something to him!"
"I really didn't expect that when you first came to the New Tang Dynasty, you already spoke Chinese so well. It's not easy to use words such as appearance and black hand freely!" Mu Jiaojiao suddenly changed her words.
The little lady of the Hu people was stunned. "Since we decided to move here, we naturally had to learn Chinese in advance. β
"Is that all? But why do I think you feel like you've been in the New Tang Dynasty for many years? and...... The main reason why I attacked that person just now was that I seemed to have seen his portrait somewhere...... It seems to be a picture of the government?"
As Mu Jiaojiao spoke, she glanced at Cui Pu.
Cui Pu immediately nodded: "That's true! His face is exactly the same as a picture that Benfu has seen before!"
"That's right, it's the Hu murderer Nanman who killed two families in Youzhou, forcibly robbed the people's property, and then burned down other people's houses and fled!" Another voice came from outside, and Wang Qiqi stood up.
Before his words fell, the faces of the group changed drastically. The Hu people around them, who were originally excited, also turned pale, and subconsciously took two steps back to keep a distance from them.
Although their own people are being bullied, they share the same hatred. But if they are murderers, they are determined to keep their distance from this group. If nothing else, they don't want to be arrested by the government as their accomplices! It was so easy for them to gain a foothold in the New Tang Dynasty!
As soon as Mu Jiaojiao's news was released, coupled with Wang Qiqi's help, it could be regarded as controlling Fang Cai's one-sided situation.
Cui Pu let out a sigh of relief, and was about to seize the opportunity to ask someone to tie them all up for questioning, but someone among the Hu people shouted: "Don't listen to their nonsense! They are making up this to frame us! We are innocent ordinary people, and we have never done the evil thing of killing people and setting fires at all! This is still an excuse they make for killing people and killing people!"
Until now, they have not given up, and they are still messing around.
Cui Pu sneered a few times. "If you say you're not a murderer, then show up the evidence. There are pictures of him in the government of this government, and this government will call someone to bring it now, so that the people can take a good look at it, and see whether it is this government that frames you, or whether you deliberately kill people, in a vain attempt to sow discord between Hu and Han!"
As soon as these words came out, many of the onlookers immediately sobered up. They hurriedly took another big step back.
Hu-Han relations, this has always been a sensitive topic. Although they have always thought that they are second-class citizens in the New Tang Dynasty, the imperial court has given them a good placement, and they have also set up a special Fanfang for them to live in. Now, for the sake of their health, the new prefect and his wife also apply medicine regularly, which is good enough for them. After thinking about it this way, they felt that the new prefect who was wholeheartedly in charge of the Guangzhou Prefecture would want to attack the ordinary Hu people? It was unreasonable!
It is still this group of newcomers who take advantage of their hatred of the Han people to deliberately provoke them to act against the Han people and the government, but this explanation is more acceptable.
The group of Hu people naturally didn't recognize it, and rolled and howled, shouting at Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao to slander them. The old lady who killed them didn't admit it, but wanted to destroy them all. Cui Pu just watched them screaming coldly now, while waiting for someone to go back to the mansion to get the portrait.
For example, he was very confident in Wang XVII's memory. If it was just Mu Jiaojiao, he might only think that she was helping him exonerate. But since Wang Seventeen opened his mouth and made things clear, then he decided that this group of people was definitely the fugitive!
Soon, the portrait was sent, and Mu Jiaojiao also scooped a scoop of water and splashed it on the face of the fallen Hu Ren, and the camouflage on his face was immediately washed away, revealing his original form.
Compare it with the portrait in Cui Pu's hand - it's not the same person!
