More and more people began to go up to the high platform, venting their anger towards the elders of the three and fifth clans of the Kong family and the servants.
Two tables were even trampled over, and the people on them fell to the ground.
Even so, it could not stop the people from hating them.
"Go and separate the people." Yu Huai asked his soldiers to separate the crowd below.
He could understand the people's hatred towards the elders of the Kong clan, but even if people like him were to die, they would be dealt with in a dignified manner by the Tiger Flag, not lynched.
The soldiers of the Tiger Character Banner spent a lot of effort to rescue the Kong clan elders and others from the people who were beating them.
The two elders of the Kong clan who were rescued had been beaten to death, while the conditions of the servants were slightly better.
If the soldiers of the Tiger-Character Flag had been a little later to rescue people, these people would probably be killed here.
"Quiet, quiet." Yu Huai stood up and shouted to stop the agitated people, "I know you want to kill them, but the state-owned legal family has family rules, you can't vent your anger privately and beat them to death. Next, I will Read out the punishment for them, and you must believe that our Tiger Character Banner will give everyone justice."
He shouted several times before he managed to quiet the noisy voice.
Then, he read out the results of the trial against the elders of the three Kong clans.
Beheaded, beheaded, all of these people were beheaded.
When the verdict was announced first, the people immediately cheered.
The place of execution was arranged directly at the public trial meeting.
Some soldiers straightened the crooked table, once again escorted the elders of the three Kong clans and others onto the table, and stabbed them all to death on the public trial platform with bayonets.
When Yan Shenggong and the elders of the Kong clan in the wooden building saw this scene, their faces became extremely ugly.
The timid ones even slumped in their seats.
"There is no king's law, there is no king's law, they dare to execute me, the elder of the Kong clan, like this!" The elders of the two clansmen of the Kong clan shouted angrily.
However, no one agreed with him at all.
As early as when the people climbed up to the high platform and attacked the two clan elders of the Kong clan, the expressions of those clan elders who stayed in the wooden building changed.
"You've all seen it! The elders of the three tribes and the five tribes just didn't give face to the man named Yu, and they ended up like this. They will be nailed to the pillar of shame even after they die." Yan Shenggong looked at the surrounding people. The clan elder said, "The other party hasn't had time to settle the matter of besieging the county government. If you want to survive, you'd better cooperate with the other party!"
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the stairs.
The figure disappeared from everyone's sight step by step down the stairs.
Wow!
The elder of the two Kong clan slipped all the dishes on the table to the floor.
"I still have something to do at home, I'll go back first." The elder of the clan turned around and walked downstairs.
"I've been out for so long, it's time to go home and have a look."
"Come together, we are on the way."
Several clan elders left the wooden building one after another, leaving only the elder of the second clan of the Kong family staying in the wooden building with a gloomy expression.
Although the prisoner was executed, the public trial was not over.
Yu Huai took this opportunity to publicize the policy of the Tiger Character Banner, so that more people would know the local policy of the Tiger Character Banner, instead of letting the gentry elders talk nonsense.
As the tiger-character flag policies were read out and explained one by one, the people immediately cheered.
Only then did many people in Qufu realize that the tiger-character flag came to Qufu not to suck out the bones and marrow of the people in Qufu, as the clan elders claimed, but to allocate fields to the people and lead them to live a good life.
In addition, the Tiger Character Banner executed two angry elders of the Kong clan one after another, and its prestige was immediately established.
The public trial lasted for several hours before it ended. When the people left, they did not forget to talk about the events of the public trial with their companions.
】
In addition to the execution of two elders of the Kong clan, the discussion was more about the distribution of the tiger-character flag to the common people.
Returning to the Yamen, Yu Huai sat down on his seat, picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip of the long-cooled tea. Then he looked at Kong Zhenkan who followed him in and said, "That question named Kong Yan Did something happen? Who is the mastermind behind this?"
"I have already asked him. He said that a servant from the second clan's hometown found him, gave him twenty taels of silver, and promised him to help him introduce the examiner sent by the imperial court for the next provincial examination, so as to win the title of a civil servant. ." Kong Zhenkan replied.
When Yu Huai heard this, his eyes widened and he said, "You guys, Kong, are really quite capable. You can even win over the examiner of the provincial examination, and you can easily agree to go out."
"The examiners who come to Shandong to preside over the provincial examinations usually give Kong some face. It's not a big problem after meeting him. But the examiner will never agree to give Kong a candidate. After all, Shandong is different from those chieftains, and candidates still have to rely on their ability. ." Kong Zhenkan explained.
Yu Huai also felt that it was impossible for Kong to make a scholar become a candidate in the provincial examination with just one sentence. If it were that simple, candidates from Kong's family would have been all over Shandong.
"That Kong Yan believed the other party's words?" Yu Huai felt that a scholar could not be deceived so easily.
If you can pass the exam to become a scholar, you are definitely not stupid.
Kong Zhenkan said: "Kong Yan naturally doesn't believe it, but with twenty taels of silver and an extra hope of winning the prize, he is naturally willing to give it a try."
"I can only say that I, Hu Zi Qi, am too kind and did not kill anyone here in Qufu. Otherwise, given his courage, I would not dare to lead people to besiege the county government." Yu Huai snorted coldly.
Although Huziqi captured the city of Qufu without any bloodshed, he felt that it was more difficult to manage than the county seat captured by force.
In a city captured by troops, there are very few people in the city who will resist. Even if there are a few who secretly want to fight against the Tiger Flag, they will not dare to mess around easily.
It's not like here in Qufu, where many people secretly use some weird tricks to go against the Tiger Flag.
"What are Deputy Battalion Yu planning to do with this Kong Yan?" Kong Zhenkan asked.
After hearing this, Yu Huai glanced at Kong Zhenkan and said, "What? Are you afraid that I will kill this person?"
"Kong Yan was instigated by others. Although he was at fault, he was not killed. I hope Deputy Yu Yingzheng can spare him lightly and give him a chance to serve as a scholar." Kong Zhen was able to excuse Kong Yan.
I don't want a talent like Kong Yan to be lost because of the fight between the Kong clan elders and the Tiger Flag.
Yu Huai snorted and said: "I don't think that Kong Yan is a childish person. Even if someone is instigating him behind his back, he doesn't understand. How could he not know that doing so will offend my Tiger Flag, but he is still like this If he is not punished, how will the Tiger Character Banner gain a foothold in Qufu in the future?"
"Please ask Deputy Yu Yingzheng to spare his life." Kong Zhenkan faced Yu Huai and bowed to the end.
