"Although Thief Fang is hateful, the key now is to rescue Mr. Xiuwu. We must let the court know that Mr. Xiuwu cannot be killed! To kill him is to make the world an enemy!"
In a clubhouse.
When Wu Changshi and other candidates made sure that they were surrounded only by scholars like himself who had joined various reliable literary societies, he first started to cry out bitterly.
Dong Tingxian also responded: "That's right! Since His Majesty doesn't listen to what we say, then we can only ignore our decency! As Mr. Mu Zhai said, at this time, we can only imitate the righteous men of the Yingmiao Dynasty, and we should be punished. A traitor to the country and risking death! I decided to go to Jinyiwei prison and personally rescue Mr. Xiuwu. Unless the factory guards and other imperial hawks really want to be enemies with us scholars and kill us innocently, please don't stop us from rescuing Mr. Xiuwu! In short, if you want to die, die with Mr. Xiuwu! If you want to live, live with the scholars in the world!"
"Is there anyone who will go with me to the Jinyiwei Prison to rescue Mr. Xiuwu?"
Dong Tingxian said and stood on the table to call.
"go!"
Several literary leaders took the lead and responded.
And these leaders responded to this, and other scholars also responded one after another.
Suddenly, a large group of scholars came to the Jinyiwei prison in the northwest of Zhengyang Gate.
When the Jin Yiwei on duty saw so many soldiers coming over, they couldn't help but tighten the handle of the knife in their hands, and they all looked at Wu Mengming, who was in charge of the Jin Yiwei.
Wu Mengming knew that scholars were not easy to mess with. They were all people with their nostrils turned upward. Unlike the common people, they had awe of the government. They were also particularly capable of causing trouble and were good at inciting public opinion and deceiving people. Therefore, he did not dare to look down upon him and immediately He ordered people to immediately tell the official of Jinyi Guards Hall and the factory official Wei Zhongxian in charge of factory guard affairs.
But not long after Wu Mengming ordered people to report his superiority, he saw these scholars rushing directly into the hall of his Jinyiwei.
Seeing this, Wu Mengming had to stretch out his hand to stop these people: "Everyone! This is the Jinyiwei lobby. Not everyone can enter casually. Please go back! Don't make everyone look ugly."
"Get away! Our husband is inside, we need to rescue our husband!"
Dong Tingxian shouted at Wu Mengming with great enthusiasm.
"We don't care who your husband is! This is the Jinyiwei Hall. Not just anyone can enter. Without an imperial edict, unless you are an official of the Factory Guard Hall, no one of you can enter!"
Wu Mengming had no choice but to speak seriously, and directly knocked Dong Tingxian to the ground.
"Traitor! Fight with you!"
At this time, Dong Tingxian gritted his teeth and stood up and shouted: "Do you still remember the time when our civil servants and officials in the Yingmiao court beat Wang Zhen to death in the court? Do you still remember the time when Jing Wen Gong (Li Mengyang) held a golden melon to fight against the law? Is this an old thing about your honor? How can any bloody person be subjected to these petty insults?"
As he said that, Dong Tingxian suddenly punched the guard in front of him.
For a time, these scholars who came to make trouble in Jinyiwei really surrounded and beat up the dozen or so Jinyiwei in front of them.
Seeing this, Wu Mengming immediately pulled out his knife and shouted: "You are ignoring the king's law!"
"Wu Baihu!"
At this time, Luo Sigong, the left governor in charge of the imperial guards, suddenly came from outside and suddenly called out to Wu Mengming.
When Wu Mengming saw Luo Sigong coming, he hurriedly came over and said anxiously: "Captain, look, they made a big fuss at the Jinyiwei Yamen and threatened to beat us to death!"
At this time, Luo Sigong hurriedly shouted: "Everyone, please stop! Otherwise, it will be regarded as conspiracy."
When Luo Sigong shouted, these scholars gradually stopped.
Wu Changshi, Dong Tingxian and others looked at Luo Sigong.
Wu Changshi glanced at the python suit he was wearing and asked, "May I ask who you are, Governor Luo?"
Luo Sigong nodded: "Exactly."
Then, Luo Sigong asked: "What are you doing?"
"The powerful eunuch disrupted the government and framed Zhongliang. He even did not hesitate to slander me, Mr. Xiuwu, for his evil intentions. We are here to rescue our husband."
Wu Changshi replied.
Luo Sigong did not respond to Wu Changshi, but looked at the Jin Yiwei who had been beaten so badly that their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen. Two of them even seemed to have lost their breath. He had no choice but to turn to Wu Mengming and ordered: "Hel all the brothers down and ask for medical treatment! Everyone is injured! Five hundred taels of silver are given to each person. If something happens, each person will pay one thousand taels of silver, and it will be mine. You can come to my house later to get the silver."
"yes!"
Wu Mengming replied and said: "But, Commander, this is the matter."
Before Wu Mengming finished speaking, Luo Sigong glared at him.
Wu Mengming had no choice but to shut up.
"That's great! How dare you come here to act wild? Why don't you people go study hard? Why are you here making trouble? Do you really want to rebel?! I think the commotion in the Metropolitan Procuratorate a few days ago was not big enough. I really thought Will our family let you do whatever you want like those guys from the Metropolitan Procuratorate?!"
At this time, Jinyiwei commanded the minister Tian Ergen and other Jinyiwei officials to accompany Wei Zhongxian and came over, but Wei Zhongxian's voice of reprimand came first before he arrived.
"Yang Qianhu, arrest all these troublemaking scholars and send them to prison, waiting for the emperor to deal with them!"
After Wei Zhongxian scouted, he gave orders again.
Yang Huan, who also came with Wei Zhongxian and brought five hundred Jinyi guardsmen, saw this and immediately replied: "Yes!"
"Wait!"
But at this time, Luo Sigong suddenly shouted.
Yang Huan couldn't help but glance at Luo Sigong.
Luo Sigong also ordered: "Yang Huan, temporarily surround this place. No one is allowed to be let go, but there is no need to put him in prison."
"this."
Yang Huan didn't know who to listen to.
Luo Sigong asked in a cold voice: "Why, my commander can't move you anymore? Don't forget who helped you transfer you from the border town back to the capital!"
Yang Huan could only reply: "Of course he is the governor."
"First round up all the troublemakers! Leave them to the Emperor! Anyone who leaves without authorization will be killed!"
Yang Huan had no choice. Luo Sigong, the commander-in-chief of the left army of the Jinyi Guards who usually took care of himself, suddenly took charge of the matter. He didn't know whether to listen to Wei Zhongxian, the commander-in-chief of the East Factory, or Luo Sigong, who had helped him. He could only say wait. The emperor is rebellious. After all, everyone's common master is the emperor. It is always right to wait for the emperor to be rebellious.
"yes!"
A group of Jin Yiwei immediately surrounded the Jin Yiwei lobby.
Wu Changshi and Dong Tingxian glanced at Luo Sigong.
Luo Sigong also said: "Please don't leave without authorization, otherwise you will be punished with death!"
"It is already a mortal sin! Can trouble be caused in the Jinyiwei Hall? First, more than 500 people made a fuss with the Metropolitan Procuratorate, asking for a joint petition to rescue a treasonous person! Now hundreds of people have come to force their way into the Jinyiwei Hall, and our family has not To think that you people would be so arrogant and lawless! The Procuratorate can pretend that you don’t know and are complaining about injustice, but forcefully breaking into the Jin Yiwei is tantamount to rebellion and having no regard for the imperial court!"
Wei Zhongxian sneered and spoke while backing up, and then smiled: "Of course, our family now understands that it is not you people who are rampant, but someone in the Jinyi Guard who is disloyal to the emperor!"
After Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, he looked at Luo Sigong: "Luo Sigong, do you think you can be disloyal to the emperor just because you bought Jin Yiwei's heart?! Let me tell you, no one in this world can buy people's hearts, only the emperor can!"
After Wei Zhongxian said that, he immediately mounted his horse and left.
Seeing this, Tian Ergen couldn't help but persuade Luo Sigong: "Dudu Zuo, you are the factory owner after all."
Before Tian Ergen could speak, Luo Sigong interrupted him: "You, Tian Ergen, changed your family so quickly? It was me, not Wei Zhongxian, who made you sit in this position from a dandy! You are ungrateful!"
Tian Ergeng couldn't answer.
At this time, Luo Sigong also looked at Xu Xianchun, the governor of Beizhen, who came out of the prison: "And you, Xu Xianchun, don't forget who protected you in the first place!"
"Captain Zuo, if the emperor knows about this."
Sun Yunhe, who came out with Xu Xianchun, also had to speak.
"Yang Huan is right. This matter can only be settled by the Emperor, not Wei Zhongxian."
Luo Sigong said something and turned around and entered the Jinyiwei Yamen.
