"My future is not that bad, but your future cannot be delayed because of this, and tax revenue cannot be affected. The southwest is undergoing a reform process, and Dongpeng is also immigrating in large numbers. The court spends a lot of money and food. At this time, tax revenue is affected. The impact will be detrimental to the country’s overall plans.”
After Li Zhi said this, he couldn't help but pinch the bridge of his nose: "Being a governor is really tiring. It's not as enjoyable as being in Jin Yiwei, and it's also more painful than when I was the prefect."
"The main reason is that Suzhou's scholars and people are difficult to manage. Most of them don't take the government seriously."
Su Yao replied at this time.
Li Zhi said: "Then they can't disobey the rules! However, as the saying goes, when things are not equal, they will cry. They can't really like to make trouble and don't like to live a peaceful life. They should report it to the court first to see the situation."
Su Yao echoed: "What Fuyuan said is that the holy will is the will of heaven. Your Majesty is a king far superior to Yao and Shun. It is always right to obey the holy will."
"This is not what this court means!"
"The prefect advocates letting the Holy Will decide everything. Do you want to save yourself the effort of thinking and become a walking zombie?"
Li Zhi immediately retorted and questioned Su Yao.
Su Yao blushed and argued forcefully: "But countless facts have proven that His Majesty is indeed a man of great talent and strategy. Following the Holy Will is like following the truth."
Li Zhi said: "This is caused by a peaceful mind! It is not true loyalty! If you attribute the world's problems to one person, does that mean that the world's faults can also be attributed to one person?"
"A saint has no faults, and a king and father have no faults. Even if you don't notice for a moment, you will change it in time."
Su Yao's face turned even redder and he gritted his teeth and replied.
Li Zhi laughed and said: "Your Majesty is working hard to govern and benefit the people and the country. He wants you to have your own knowledge. He is not asking you to actively degrade yourself into a tool without your own knowledge."
"It's dangerous for Fuyuan to think like this!"
"I mean to deny His Majesty!"
"What's more, the Ming Dynasty's current prosperity lies in the holy will, which is the will of heaven."
"Otherwise, it would be impossible to successfully clear out the land, and it would be impossible for the officials and gentry to pay the grain and serve as errands, and even the great victories of pacifying Burma and conquering Japan would not happen!"
"Since the Ming Dynasty was restructured, the world has not been in chaos because of the restructuring. It is because more and more scholars believe that the Holy Will is God's will, so those who have been robbed of profits have not made a fuss, especially now that the southwest is using troops and developing Dongpeng. Exiling so many gentry children, forcing so many chieftains to kill each other, and yet there is still no chaos in the world, all because more and more people believe that the Holy Will is God's will."
"So, when Fuyuan denied this, didn't he think about the consequences of denying this idea? However, Fuyuan cannot deny it. There will only be more and more people who believe that the Holy Will is God's will."
After Su Yao spoke at length, he looked forward with a firm expression.
Li Zhi smiled bitterly and said: "Yes! I know I can't deny it, but what I mean is that just because the general trend is like this, we can't follow the trend and stay awake."
"I would like to be taught!"
Su Yao was startled for a moment, then took a step back and bowed to Li Zhi.
Li Zhi looked at the front of him as more and more people gathered outside the government office and shouted that the subscription coupons were unfairly sold and continued:
"So, before the decree is issued, we can't just wait and watch the situation become more and more chaotic. You will supervise the bureaucrats below to stop messing around. I will contact the soldiers and people and ask them to send representatives to negotiate a solution."
"good!"
Su Yao replied.
And then, just when Li Zhi was about to make contact with these people, someone among the scholars and people whispered to a fool with a stone in his arms:
"That's the man. He stole your mother and left her to death on the street. You hit him with a stone and beat him to death!"
After hearing this, the fool really threw a stone at Li Zhi.
And there was not just one fool throwing stones at Li Zhi, but many fools throwing stones at him.
Therefore, as soon as Li Zhi came over, he was showered with stones.
Li Zhi almost didn't get hit to death. Fortunately, the sergeant beside him tried his best to shield himself with a shield and was able to escort him back.
Therefore, Li Zhi had to retreat and said to his subordinates: "As expected, someone is deliberately messing up. They don't want our court to come into contact with the people. Let our secret sentries keep an eye on these people and be ready to close the net at any time according to my instructions."
While Li Zhi was retreating, one of the bastard soldiers and civilians who had instigated the fool to hit the governor laughed triumphantly, and took the opportunity to leave the place and enter the courtyard of a deep residence.
At that time, Xiao Damao, the younger brother of Xiao Dacai, the prefect of Suzhou, was in the compound. When he saw this man appearing, he asked, "How is it? Have you killed Li Zhi?"
"No! It's just an injury."
The man replied.
Xiao Damao couldn't help but sigh: "What a pity!"
After Xiao Damao said this, he ordered: "It's time to add more ingredients to make the people outside become completely angry and no longer willing to talk to the government."
"yes!"
The man agreed and left here.
At that time, Suzhou Magistrate Xiao Dacai was advising Inspector Su Yao: "Inspector, let the people from the government directly take action. They even dared to destroy the Fuyuan. They have no law! It is better to treat them as rebels. Kill them all!”
"no!"
"Even if we kill Fuyuan, we have to obey His Majesty's orders before acting. We can't guess God's will!"
"Even if Fuyuan personally orders it, I will impeach you. If you dare to send troops without authorization, let alone, I will arrest you now!"
Su Yao rejected Xiao Dacai's proposal.
Xiao Dacai was speechless about this.
Sudden.
A large number of strong warriors wearing soap-colored arrow-sleeved uniforms, holding iron rods and whistles, rushed towards these troublemaking groups of soldiers and civilians. Then they beat anyone they saw, and some even surrounded the fallen soldiers and civilians to death. He swung the bat and hit many people with blood splattering.
Xiao Dacai laughed secretly when he saw this.
At that time, Su Yao said with a sullen face: "Where did this thug come from! They are simply lawless, they don't think they are officers and soldiers, and they dare to use force in front of the government!"
"Commander Huang, lead your soldiers to stop them immediately. If you don't listen, kill them and capture a few alive!"
Su Yao then gave instructions.
He gave the commander-in-chief Huang Fei a thumbs up.
But when Huang Fei came with his troops, these thugs immediately ran away.
"These are thugs hired by the government! Now they are pretending to be good people, that must be it! Folks, the government doesn't treat us as human beings, so we will fight with them!"
The people who were among the soldiers and the people immediately sat up from the ground after Xiao Dacai gave him a look, and started shouting and encouraging the soldiers and the people.
As a result, many soldiers and civilians lost their minds because their relatives and friends were beaten, and they actually rushed towards Huang Fei's soldiers with bare hands.
Huang Fei was a person who paid attention to military discipline, otherwise he would not have been promoted to patrol guard to do such things as maintaining public order, so he just ordered his officers and soldiers to retreat with shields, but some soldiers were still stoned.
Seeing this, Xiao Dacai hurriedly said to Su Yao: "President, these unruly people have really rebelled. First they attacked the governor and now they attack the officers and soldiers indiscriminately. Do you really have to wait for the imperial decree to come before ordering the suppression? At that time, only I'm afraid that Suzhou will be burned, killed and plundered by this gang of unscrupulous people!"
Su Yao glanced at Xiao Dacai: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
