Wang Zhonghe is a scheming person who knows countless people, but he is also too arrogant and arrogant. When judging the situation, he does not rely on clear and objective intelligence, but relies on intuition and emotional judgment.
After all, he is a civil servant and tends to be emotional.
Believing that Lu Junsheng and Liang Yuhua would not betray him was the prerequisite for Wang Zhonghe to walk into Jianyang City with peace of mind, and this prerequisite was precisely the uncovered Wengkou.
Jianyang City is under martial law, there are no pedestrians on the road, and the doors of shops and houses along the street are closed. As for whether there is anyone hiding behind the door panels, squinting, or peeking cautiously from the side of the window, that is not something Lu Junsheng needs to consider. Something happened.
Wang Zhonghe was very satisfied with this scene, which showed that Lu Junsheng and Liang Yuhua had completely controlled Jianyang City. As long as the people were not in chaos and hid in their homes, there would be no resistance.
Zhao Zhi saw that Wang Zhonghe, Guo Qing and others were in a good mood. When they arrived outside the government office, he suggested: "The government office can't accommodate many sergeants. There is a big house a hundred steps away on the west side. We have snatched it. Is it okay?" Arrange for the sergeants to settle down for the time being, eat some wine and meat, and let the general take people to inspect, count and transport money and treasures?"
Guo Qing looked behind him and saw that all three thousand people had gone to the government office. It would be a tight squeeze, so he nodded and said, "Du Dacheng will bring two hundred sergeants into the government office to move their belongings. Li Weiming will take people to follow us. The others will go temporarily." Rest in the mansion, Qian Chi, you are responsible for restraining the sergeant."
Du Dacheng and others agreed.
Guo Qing did not neglect his precautions. Li Weiming was Guo Qing's confidant. He was a brave general who could fight one against ten and served as a thousand households in the Jianning Guard. He had extraordinary abilities.
"Let's go, let's see Yu Xin's face!"
Wang Zhonghe took the lead in entering the government office.
Lu Junsheng followed, Liang Yuhua glanced at Sheng Yunpu, Sheng Yunpu nodded without leaving a trace, and led Du Dacheng to the direction of the government warehouse.
The back hall of the government office.
When Yu Xin heard the noise, he slowly raised his head and saw Lu Junsheng and others walking in, struggling with the ropes on their bodies, and yelling: "Lu Junsheng, if you treat the imperial governor like this, you are not afraid that the emperor will be angry and destroy your whole family. ?”
Lu Junsheng snorted coldly and said nothing to Wang Zhonghe and Guo Qing: "Yu Xin has a dirty mouth. Why don't you take a knife and cut off his tongue so that you can be quiet!"
Wang Zhonghe stepped forward, looked at Yu Xin, and tsked: "If you cut his tongue, wouldn't it be a lot less fun? Yu Xin, Governor Yu, haha, you didn't expect this day, right?"
Yu Xin stared at Wang Zhonghe and shouted angrily: "You are Wang Zhonghe, the chief envoy of Fujian. How dare you collude and fight against the imperial court? In less than ten days, the news will reach the capital. By then, The army is coming, let me see if any of you can survive!"
Wang Zhonghe laughed loudly: "Survival, is it really difficult for us to survive? This is Fujian, and beyond Jianjiang is the sea. Who can find our traces on the vast sea?"
"The sea? You actually want to escape to the sea? Haha, how ridiculous."
Yu Xin laughed.
Wang Zhonghe became stern and shouted angrily: "How dare you, a prisoner, laugh at me?"
Yu Xin broke away from the rope around him and glared at Wang Zhonghe: "I laugh at you for not knowing how to praise me! Wang Zhonghe, you are a capable person, but you use your ability to join the party for personal gain. Your The desire to control is too strong, but you have forgotten that you are just an envoy, not a governor, not a vassal king, and not even an emperor!"
"If you work diligently in government and work for the people, relying on Quanzhou Port and Taiping Port, and relying on navigation and trade, within five years, you will definitely be transferred to the capital and serve as a minister. But you, you have to work with the imperial court. Enemy! Wang Zhonghe, if you surrender now and bow down to the emperor to plead guilty, you can still leave a way for your family to survive. If you persist in your stubbornness, you and your family will be in trouble in the city!"
Wang Zhonghe naturally knew that rebellion was different from other crimes. Other crimes could only be resisted by one head, but rebellion required a lot of brains to resist.
But, there is no way out!
Wang Zhonghe sat down and looked at the depressed Yu Xin: "Do you know why I formed a party and rebelled? It's because of Emperor Jianwen and because Zhu Yunzhen is unfair and partial!"
Yu Xin scolded: "The emperor is the father of the king, but your father is partial, how dare you beat your father? The Ming Dynasty was founded on benevolence and filial piety. Since you have rebelled, the benevolence and righteousness of the emperor and his ministers have been broken, and you have no heart of filial piety. You are an unkind and unfilial person." !”
Wang Zhonghe spat: "The emperor is unfair, my father! Why are those sergeants loyal to me, why are those officials loyal to me? It's because of me He is fairer and cares about them more than Zhu Yunwen!"
Yu Xin sneered: "Wang Zhonghe, do you have to make so many excuses and excuses for your own selfishness? You are fair and ridiculous. Your so-called fairness is based on depriving and plundering people and businessmen. You are fair to officials. , where is your fairness to the people? Where is your fairness to the businessmen?"
"You changed the court documents and increased the tax items without authorization. Are you being fair? No, you are selfish and self-interested! Do you dare to say that you have given all the wealth you collected to others fairly? Ten percent of the wealth is yours alone. How many percent did you take away? Is it 40% or 60%? A shameless person talks about fairness. You are so hypocritical!"
Wang Zhonghe took a step forward and clenched his fists: "Who are those ordinary people? They live to pay taxes for us powerful people. Why should we give them justice?"
Yu Xin didn't expect that Wang Zhonghe would be so twisted. He didn't care about the life and death of the people. His position and understanding of the people were just to pay taxes, nothing more!
This is the chief envoy of Fujian, the first person in civil affairs!
Chilling!
Yu Xin did not expect that there would be such an envoy under Emperor Jianwen. In previous years, during the pilgrimage, there was no corruption among high-ranking officials like Wang Zhonghe. They had enough salary and power. But he wants to seek personal gain and harm one party!
"Wang Zhonghe, you have not cared about the people who have brought you countless wealth at all. Do you really care about your comrades who have divided up your countless interests? Guo Qing, right? Haha, you really are too You are confused. He is obviously a military attaché with no brains, but he still insists on getting involved in the rebellion. Do you really think that he will take you with him when he leaves? Please note that there are too many ships going to sea, it is like creating a large Targets are very easy for the navy to find."
Yu Xin looked at Guo Qing, Shen Yi, Li Weiming and others.
Guo Qing's expression changed and he looked at Wang Zhonghe.
Shen Yi was the general magistrate of Jian'an, and his heart skipped a beat when he heard Yu Xin's words. Wang Zhonghe rebelled, and he was forced to get involved. Xu Yin was not even Wang Zhonghe's confidant, let alone himself. As Yu Xin said Yan, if he goes to sea, how many people can he take with him?
With more people and more ships, the navy is indeed more likely to find him. Is he willing to take the risk of being discovered and take everyone out to sea?
】
No, it won't!
Wang Zhonghe is a selfish person. Everyone is his pawn. Once he leaves, he will throw away all his pawns and leave alone.
There is no future for following such people.
Shen Yi knew this, but could not resist. Wang Zhonghe was in control of the overall situation. Even the governor appointed by the imperial court fell into his hands. Who could save the situation?
Resisting Wang Zhonghe now means death.
Li Weiming narrowed his pupils slightly, glanced at Wang Zhonghe, and then looked away. No matter what the road ahead is, he must listen to Guo Qing's words and fight with them.
Three years ago, his mother was seriously ill and needed some expensive medicines to save her life. Unfortunately, his salary was not enough. At the critical moment, Guo Qing asked his connections to find medicinal materials and saved his mother.
From that moment on, Li Weiming swore an oath to exchange one life for another, and gave his life to Guo Qing. It doesn't matter whether Wang Zhonghe lives or dies, rebels or runs away, the only person he can protect is Guo Qing. yes
Wang Zhonghe looked at Guo Qing, and then said to Yu Xin: "Sowing discord will have no effect on us. They are all people I can absolutely trust. You don't think that the islands in the sea belong to me alone, do you? , belongs to all of us! I will take them away and let them live a carefree life."
Yu Xin shook his head: "No, you are wrong. Take a step back. You did go out to sea and arrived at your so-called safe island. I dare to ask, who will continue to pay taxes for you? Do you dare to spend the money you looted? Do you dare to expose yourself? position? Oh, you took them away just so that someone could continue to pay you taxes, become your slave, and continue to live a prosperous life. Believe it or not, as long as you dare to show any trace, with the help of Daming Water The division’s intelligence network will definitely be able to uncover you!”
There was murderous intent in Wang Zhonghe's eyes. Yu Xinguo was not an ordinary person. He had seen his plans clearly.
Yes, he can take many people away, but most of them can only be enslaved people, who are arranged to reclaim wasteland, farm, and pay taxes!
He couldn't be allowed to continue talking.
Wang Zhonghe looked at Lu Junsheng: "Where are the governor's seal and flag, leave it to me. I will mobilize all the troops and horses in Fujian for my use!"
Lu Junsheng pointed at Yu Xin: "He hid the big seal and didn't take it with him."
Yu Xin laughed and looked at Wang Zhonghe, who looked uneasy: "Why, do you know how to be afraid? It's too late. The Fujian rebellion has been put down since the moment you entered Jianyang City. Wang Zhonghe, Guo Qing, I advise you to just surrender and capture him."
Wang Zhonghe watched in surprise as Yu Xin broke free from his hands, easily untied the rope around his body, and shouted in disbelief: "You, how did you do that?"
Yu Xin held the rope and threw it on the ground: "I have a rope tied to my body, you can see it. But you have a rope tied to your body, but you can't see it. Now I have untied the rope, and it's your turn." , let me see how capable you are of causing trouble in Fujian, and see if you can untie this invisible knot."
