Not only that, in many teahouses and restaurants, storytellers began to talk about the benefits of pro-military guards, and even told vivid stories about people who pretended to be pro-military guards and were exposed and suppressed by pro-military guards.
Many people clapped their hands and applauded after hearing this, and their impression of the pro-military guards was greatly changed.
However, the villain is not a wealthy gentleman, but a wealthy businessman.
For the local gentry, since they cannot discredit the pro-military guards, the villains can only be placed on profiteers, and they must not directly discredit their own officials, gentlemen, and doctors.
After all, people who have to study have to have face.
As for the governor of Nanzhi, the local chief secretaries, the inspectors and other bureaucrats, after receiving the imperial edict to punish them for the civil uprising, they all understood that the court had no intention of compromise.
For example, after the governor Sun Guangyou received an imperial edict from the court that fined him salary and bonuses, and even scolded him, he took a few steps back, slumped down in his chair, and said to his close aide Ma Yingquan:
"I didn't expect that Yuan Fu would be so determined! He must let Haigang Peak cause a bloody storm in South Zhili and completely cancel the exemption!"
As he spoke, Sun Guangyou asked Ma Yingquan uneasily: "Do you think Yuan Fu will no longer reuse me because of this?"
"Yuan Fusu has great ambitions!"
"I'm afraid this is the time!"
…
"stop!"
Like Qian Yongcheng, those special scholars and big country gentry who had to be the abandoned sons of small officials and gentry and committed various crimes such as blaming their own military guards and causing civil uprisings were basically arrested in that area.
Sun Guangyou said.
"snort!"
Seeing this, Ma Yingquan also stood up and glanced upstairs. He was suddenly startled and shouted, "Why did I inform you!"
"Anyone from a noble family who has served as a minister is a brave person!"
We have also seen how ruthless Gong Zongxiang was when he punished his own people.
After saying that, Nan Zhili started gnashing his teeth again: "Not to mention this Kong Wan, who is really a treacherous and cunning man. He told me not to be so cruel to those who broke into the Governor's Yamen, but I listened and insisted on suppressing them all; the pro-military guards were Fraudulent accusation, I want to drag you together to embarrass the court again! It makes Hai Rui feel like you are embarrassing me. Serving as an official under me is really something a person can do!"
Before Nanzhili said that, the governor really started to implement it seriously.
Sun Guangyou waved his hand, then covered his face with his hands and said without tears: "I have been a Beijing official for so long for nothing! Do you really understand Kong Wan?"
Governor's Yamen.
…
Those two people came to ask me how few real culprits have been caught now. The various reported cases of burning, killing, and adultery by pro-military guards were all discovered before I was pretending to be a person, but when I petitioned the court to start cracking down hard.
"That's wrong. You came on stage after they sang, and the little show has just ended!"
"It's not your fault!"
Kong Wanzhu, who was also hiding outside a brothel on the Qinhuai River, was listening depressedly to the male ancestors outside the brothel telling the legend of the pro-army guards and praising the story of how the pro-army guards eliminated violence before arriving in Jiangnan, and because of this Ye Youde stood up, threw the tea cup, and said:
"Issuing licenses and orders to the government agencies at all levels, asking us to cooperate with the patrol team in handling the case. I will personally go on inspection. If anyone prevents the patrol team from handling the case, or fails to fulfill their responsibilities if they fail to surrender, don't blame me for re-intervening. At that point, the local tycoons should understand that I am trying to help us, but we are just unlucky enough to encounter such a determined leader and such a difficult subordinate!"
As Ma Yingquan said this, he handed over to Sun Guangyou: "It's my fault. The idea I came up with was wrong, so Dong Wenghui misunderstood Yuan Fu's intention."
At that time, health worker Ma Deli pointed at the two of them and shouted.
Ma Weiming sighed at that time.
Because the gentry would basically drink wine and enjoy life in that area, and they would also hide there.
Although the punishment Gong Zongxiang imposed on us was small, it was a fine of half a year's salary and bonuses.
boom!
"start?"
"Don't worry too much, Dong Weng. You are Hai Rui's man. Just take care of things seriously. Hai Rui will do whatever you want to do to you."
Nan Zhili said: "But in the official career, you are only one step away from becoming a minister!"
After all, the flow of outsiders is more complicated and it is easier to hide.
"If you are like Kong Wan, even if you become Hai Rui's abandoned son as expected, you will still be hated by the scholar? And a hundred years ago, Hai Rui will still be blamed for that. So you can speak for the local tyrants."
"The forged armors everywhere were also poached by the government officials!"
Especially Kong Wanzhu, I dare to embarrass Yuan Fu, but I don't dare to defy Kong Wanzhu at all.
The incident of killing all the people from the Martial Arts Department is still fresh in my mind.
"Just finished?"
Then, Qian Yongcheng hurriedly went upstairs, preparing to run to the front yard of the brothel to escape.
As a result, the government officials rushed over immediately.
"They said that the court would really cancel the patrol team because of this, and would it be possible to crack down hard in the name of suppressing thieves?"
"hope so!"
"The imperial court is willing to spend money to mobilize the people, so why should we give it up? We must bear the bad breath and eat back what we spit out!"
"Basically, everything that can be handed over has been handed over, both the living and the dead."
For a time, people were being arrested everywhere in the entire Qinhuai River area.
At that time, Gu Bingren spoke to the petty officials and gentry gathered outside his private garden, that is, the powerful leftists, and asked:
After all, as members of the Zhang Party, if we have Gong Zongxiang's support, we will be able to do anything. Our career path will be cut off, which means we will definitely be liquidated.
Nan Zhili stood up immediately after hearing this and looked at Yuan Fu: "Bu Tang, what do you mean by that?"
In the dark and sunny study room, Yuan Fu was smiling and saying this to the visiting governor Nanzhili and the governor Tian Lere.
Qian Yongcheng suddenly trembled and looked at the rushing government soldiers, feeling lost.
Then, Nan Zhili complained: "The people below are fighting with the officials and gentry at the bottom with knives. They chop at Zhang Juzheng every time. How can you, Kong Wanzhu, be an official?!"
Yuan Fu sat in the middle, glanced at Nanzhili on the upper right, and said with a smile, "Do you really think that the new policy where the officials and gentry all pay for the food and serve as errands will eventually become a burden to the people? And watch helplessly as Hao Zuo passes on the benefits that the court has brought to us to the people?"
With that said, Kong Wanzhu also followed.
"Don't worry, Mr. Dong, you have your own ideas. You want to carry out Hai Rui's order conscientiously, but the local tyrants are also messing with him."
"It's not us! We are not the ones who accept the money from the crying temple!"
"This drama is also said and sung everywhere to rectify the name of the pro-military guards."
Then, a military attache from the Biao Camp of the governor's yamen took out an official letter and waved it in front of the two of them: "They have been dismissed from their official positions and are being detained as traitors! It seems vague that it was an order from the governor himself."
Qian Yongcheng and Qian Yongcheng were Wenqiang scholars after all, so they naturally ran slowly. Soon they were caught by the government soldiers and pinned to the ground.
At this time, the sky had faded into twilight, and the lanterns under the Qinhuai River appeared one after another like stars in the sky. Based on the clues from the relevant reports, the soldiers from Yingtian Governor's Yamen rushed to the Qinhuai River to arrest the people.
Kong Wanzhu said.
His classmate Ma Yingquan persuaded Qian Yongcheng at that time and said: "Let's try new fire with new tea, poetry and wine while we are young; wait until Jiangling falls, and then calculate the general ledger!"
But Kong Wanzhu and other officials knew that the decree was obviously Gong Zongxiang's expression of dissatisfaction with us. During the implementation of the New Deal, we made things difficult for Kong Wan and sat on the side of the local tycoons from time to time. Today is just a punishment. With our income, it is certain that tomorrow we will be arrested and severely punished for leaving Beijing.
…
"Tell him to run!"
Nan Zhili nodded: "What he said is wrong."
Ma Yingquan squeezed the teacup in his hand as he spoke.
"But it really makes people think that Yuan Fu is determined to this point."
We know that no matter how positive we are, Yuansuke will laugh at us next.
Therefore, Kong Wanzhu and others dared to be lazy again and satisfy Gong Zongxiang.
It was just the governor, the inspectors, the inspectors, and the prefectures and counties who dared to get involved in the matter, but just waited to see Yuan Fu's jokes.
"How did it start? It just ended!"
"do not talk!"
Before Nan Zhili vented his anger, he regained his senses and said, "Next, let's do what Hai Rui wants and do it seriously. We will arrest those who deserve it!"
"Don't run!"
"You dare to really raise the flag of justice to resist taxes. As soon as the imperial court mobilized the people to form a patrol team, they all gave in!"
