Chapter 208

Chapter 208

As a large number of powerful rightists were bloodbathed, so that the so-called civil uprising far failed to meet the expectations of the powerful rightists behind the scenes, the powerful rightists gradually realized that something was wrong.

At this time, Lu Huo asked Gu Bingren in a low voice on the attic because he saw the scenes of hooligans who were caught on the street one after another and shot dead by the officers and soldiers of the patrol team:

"What the hell is going on here? Why do so many patrol teams suddenly appear, and they kill those who break the law!"

"I don't know!"

"A lot popped up all at once."

"According to the farmers I rented from the countryside, there are more patrol teams in the countryside!"

"There are even some so-called patrolmen who are plowing the fields while suppressing bandits. On the surface, they look like a group of farmers, but when they really want to burn, kill and loot them in the past, they copy the guys and are well-trained."

"And these patrol teams are said to follow Governor Hai Rui's order to wipe out the rebels in a strict way!"

Gu Bingren started to answer at this moment, and asked Lu Huo, "Didn't you find out anything from Hai Rui?"

Lu Huo punched the beauty heavily: "This Hai Gangfeng has been hiding and refuses to see us!"

As he said that, Lu Huo asked, "Where's Huo Weida, the student who you often deal with, did he find out anything?"

"He has already returned to Wuxi, but he hasn't come yet."

Gu Bingren said.

Boom!

At this time, Lu Huo saw another group of imprisoned hooligans being collectively shot, and the place where they were shot suddenly flowed into rivers of blood, and he became more and more uneasy:

"Stop here, lest Hai Rui dig up anything."

Gu Bingren nodded: "That's the only way."

Then, Gu Bingren said with a look of resentment: "Now I don't dare to strike the market. Once I strike the market, my property will be confiscated; it is impossible to abandon the farmland, and I will be punished as a traitor. I just want to end it, but I don't necessarily want it to end." It can really end, once the noble slaves and local hooligans who have released the mansion grab it, it will be difficult to stop for a while."

"That's none of our business."

Lu Huo came back with a sentence.

Gu Bingren said: "Anyway, I'd better go to Hai Rui to ask again, what's going on, especially the patrol team, can it be cancelled?"

"Now let this patrol team go on like this, let alone the civil uprising, we big households really only have the honest executive officials and gentry paying food and errands as a new deal! The key is that we have also lost a lot of control over the villagers. Power, after all, let them maintain law and order, so what are we squires doing?!"

"Those small people, small traders and even hired workers will not take us seriously!"

"Thinking about it now, it must have been a trick. We wanted to threaten Jiangling and Hai Rui with a civil uprising, but Jiang Ling and Hai Rui simply took the opportunity to let the government's power go to the countryside."

"It certainly amounts to a surrender of our power."

At this time, Lu Huo also spoke solemnly.

"Ben Xian will ask now!"

"Hai Rui never sees Ben Xian again, and Ben Xian has been sitting in the governor's office waiting for him!"

Then, Lu Huo put on the black gauze hat and turned away.

Gu Bingren bowed his hands to Lu Huo, and then looked at the blood of the murdered slaves and local hooligans that had flowed into a river with distress: "It's a crime! It's really a crime!"

Then, Gu Bingren saw a patrol team queuing up next to a box of broken silver brought by officers and soldiers of the National Taxation Department to collect the payment.

Although each piece of these pieces of silver seemed to be worth only a penny, he found it even more unbelievable and unacceptable, so he gritted his teeth and said:

"How did he Haigangfeng do this? It's simply hateful to distribute the white money to these people who wantonly slaughtered my gentry's minions!"

But Gu Bingren could only hate it in his heart.

When passing these patrol teams in a sedan chair, he didn't dare to speak big words, and even when he saw another large patrol team coming in, he directly ordered the bearers to detour.

boom!

Even after hearing the sound of a gun, Gu Bingren shivered for a while, and ordered the bearers to divert to the Qinhuai River. He decided to live on a flower boat on the Qinhuai River for a while to recover his mood.

Boom!

But for ordinary people, whether they are in business or work, hearing these gunshots is a lot of peace of mind, just like hearing firecrackers for the New Year.

Because they have discovered that the sound of these guns is to ensure their peaceful and orderly life.

Lu Huo, on the other hand, was so depressed when he heard the gunshots and saw the blood-stained Qinhuai River turn red over and over again that when he walked towards Hai Rui, his face was solemn.

And just when Lu Huo slammed down the car curtain in frustration, he didn't intend to see the life order that had been gradually restored, and he didn't want to see those small merchants come out again to sell, and even many big shops opened one after another. His sedan chair stopped.

"what happened!"

Therefore, Lu Huo asked sharply.

At this time, Lu Huo's butler, An San, ran over and said in a panic, "Master, there are Jin Yiwei, who stopped in front of our sedan chair!"

"There is a decree, the censor of Zuoqian capital in Nanjing, Lu Huo, the admiral of Caojiang, listen to the announcement!"

The Jinyiwei who came was Wan Bangfu and his party.

At this time, Wan Bangfu shouted outside.

Lu Huo suddenly felt something was wrong, and reprimanded his housekeeper An San in a low voice: "Why didn't anyone notify in advance and send thugs to stop them?"

"My lord, there are patrol teams everywhere now, and they are cracking down on rebels. Who dares to encourage mobs to stop them?"

"Looking at it now, it's probably the Jinyiwei team that was stopped in Zhenjiang!"

An San replied.

"Lu Qianxian! Are you disobedient?"

Wan Bangfu asked outside at this time.

"Don't dare!"

Lu Qianxian yelled, walked out of the sedan chair, and knelt down on the ground with a disturbed expression.

Then, Wan Bangfu announced the decree: "The imperial edict said: Lu Huo has no king, and he slapped the emperor's own army and guard..."

Lu Huo turned pale when he heard this, and muttered in a low voice: "Impossible, this is impossible."

"This is absolutely impossible!"

As Lu Huo was speaking, he suddenly raised his head and yelled, "How could Yuan Fu want to punish me for conspiracy and treason and kill my father and son just because I slapped Wu Bian?!"

"I'm a civil servant, the censor of Qiandu who came from a dignified Jinshi!"

"take away!"

Wan Bangfu didn't say much to Lu Huo, only gave an order.

Then, the two Jinyi Weiti rode over and got off their horses, one stuck the shackles around his neck, and the other handcuffed his hands and feet.

It didn't take long for Lu Huo to be caught by the two and put into the prison car.

On the other hand, Lu Huo looked around in a bewilderment, but the surrounding businessmen and workers in the workshops, as well as the performers on the street, and the pedestrians who bought goods, all just looked at him sideways, and even appeared on their faces. smile.

No one wanted to stop Jin Yiwei from taking him away.

Lu Huo couldn't help laughing wryly, and then turned to the sky and cursed: "Zhang Juzheng! You traitor, if you treat scholar-bureaucrats like this, aren't you afraid that your ancestors' graves will be dug up again in the future?!"

Laidi happened to come to the city to buy tofu at this time, seeing Jin Yiwei holding a senior official in a scarlet official robe, she naturally stopped to look at it curiously like other common people, and thus heard Lu Huo scolding Zhang Juzheng.

Laidi remembered that Liu Quexian used to say that it was Zhang Juzheng's New Deal that saved him as well as her, so she was filled with anger, secretly hid in the crowd, picked up a piece of tofu in her basket, and threw it at Lu Huo. past.

slap!

Lu Huo's face suddenly blossomed.

"Bastard, who is the troublemaker!"

Lu Huo couldn't help but cursed loudly.

But at this time, Laidi had already left secretly.

And although some of Lu Huo's domestic slaves had already seen that Laidi did it, they didn't dare to arrest them at this time because they saw patrolmen patrolling the street, and they were worried that they would be like other wealthy domestic slaves who beat them without authorization. The arrested people were directly beaten to death, and they could only watch Laidi leave here.

However, because of this, not long after, a lot of things flew over, such as rotten vegetables, rotten fruits, and dog feces, and they all fell on Lu Huo's face and the prison car.

Although the common people don't know what kind of official Lu Huo is, they hate him as long as he is an official.

What's more, someone has already started and told them that there will be nothing wrong with being an official at this time.

"Good catch!"

"These are Jin Yiwei, they are here to catch these dog officials!"

"Anyone who isn't an official like Master Hai should be caught and beheaded! Jin Yiwei has finally done his job, not bullying us ordinary people, but arresting officials!"

When Wan Bangfu and other Jin Yiwei escorted Lu Huo to leave, some people even became more courageous because of this, and they shouted directly, expressing their true feelings, and no longer remained silent.

One thousand households under Wan Bangfu couldn't help asking Wan Bangfu: "Boss, why are the people in Nanjing different from the people in Zhenjiang? It’s time to get down to business, support us in arresting people?”
