Chapter 147 Li Wei!(1/2)

Wang Yingjiao smiled faintly, thinking that Feng Quan had never been a local official or dealing with local gentry. When he encountered this kind of situation, he was frightened and lost his mind.

Maybe it's because people like to preach others, especially older people.

Therefore, Wang Yingjiao lost his tea and said calmly: "Stand up for the world, establish a life for the people, inherit the unique knowledge for the past saints, and bring peace to the world. Although these four sentences by Mr. Hengqu are easy to say, they are not so easy to do. If we scholars and officials want to do things for the country and the people, we must not only be honest and self-righteous, but also have the courage to not be afraid of death! Otherwise, everyone in this world can become Haigangfeng and Zhang Jiangling!"

When Feng Quan heard that Wang Yingjiao did not show any indignation and said something unrelated to the civil turmoil he encountered, he asked in confusion: "What does Wang Gong mean?"

Wang Yingjiao glanced at him and said, "You shouldn't have run away at that time!"

After hearing this, Feng Quan was puzzled and hurriedly said, "But if the lower official doesn't run away, the lower official will be beaten to death!"

"You are the governor, the governor of the military and political affairs of Nanzhili. To be honest, now in Nanzhili, you are the emperor! No one can kill you except the emperor who can kill you! Not to mention a group of chaotic people, even officials, you can kill you! If you are weak, others will think that the emperor is weak and the court is weak! If you are not easy to provoke, others will think that the emperor is not easy to provoke, and the court is not easy to provoke! If those chaotic people really dare to kill you, they will beat the emperor to death, which is a rebellion! Then all civil and military officials from all over Nanzhili will be punished, and all the scholars and people will be compensated!"

Wang Yingjiao laughed as he said: "When I was the governor of Baoding, I encountered such a thing because I wanted to investigate and deal with the banned usury among the people. At that time, there were tens of thousands of people who had trouble, but no one really dared to kill me. Because I knew that this was not a real civil rebellion, but local gentry was trying to make trouble behind the scenes. After all, I did things that benefit the people, and I had a clear conscience. I didn't believe that the people would really hate me so much! I didn't believe that those gentry dared to instigate the uninformed people to beat me to death! Beating me to death is a small matter, but offending the court and breaking the rules will be a big matter! This local official must be brave and tough. Why did Hai Gangfeng and Xu Yongjing make the gentry of Nanzhili fear like tigers when they were governors of Nanzhili? It is because they are not afraid of death! They have courage!"

Wang Yingjiao said, and said to Feng Quan: "You go to Wuxi again and take all the soldiers of the Bian battalion under your governor. If you encounter trouble again, you will directly kill them on the grounds of rebellion. You can even cut off the local magistrate first. If you become a governor, you must dare to kill people. Otherwise, how to control civil and military officials under your command? People say that they are kind and do not control the soldiers, and they are also leading soldiers as governors, which is even more ruthless. Otherwise, Your Majesty will think that although Feng Quan is loyal but lacks courage, you will find it difficult to reuse in the future!"

Feng Quan felt enlightened after hearing this, and couldn't help but bow down: "Thank you Mr. Wang for your advice!"

Wang Yingjiao smiled and asked again: "Did you report this to Your Majesty?"

"I have already reported it. Will Your Majesty really feel that I am not brave enough?"

Feng Quan asked with some concern.

"Then you will write another book and say that you will go to Wuxi immediately. If you cannot complete the land clearance of the rice fields, you will be punished and apologized!"

Wang Yingjiao replied.

After hearing this, Feng Quan thought about it and nodded, "I'll write it now!"

...

"This Feng Quan! He was born in a Hanlin family and was not brave enough to scare him away. If he had faced the vicious Japanese pirates like Hu Zongxian back then, would he not even dare to stay in Nan Zhili?"

After receiving Feng Quan's first memorial, Zhu Youxiao threw the memorial on the desk and the other party started talking.

Fang Congzhe said: "Your Majesty said very well. I am afraid that the gentry in Jiangnan has also figured out Feng Quan's lack of experience in the local area and acted as a warning to him! In the opinion of the minister, this capable minister and official must be cultivated slowly, and there is no one who can stand alone at once. Your Majesty might as well be more patient with Feng Quan. The most important thing at the moment is that the matter of clearing the land and acres cannot be given up halfway."

"Well, no matter what Feng Quan said, he was also the governor who was appointed by me. He was the general manager of me. If these people dare not take Feng Quan seriously, they would take me seriously. It would be too simple to think that scaring Feng Quan would scare me."

Zhu Youxiao said that, and the other party conscripted: "Immediately draw an order! The people of Wuxi obstructed the new policy of the court and even threatened to kill me. It was like rebelling and had no eyes! Since this is the case, all the scholars and people in Wuxi should be punished and all the scholars in Wuxi will be eliminated! The people's taxes will be increased by three cents! All officials in Wuxi will be dismissed from their posts! No matter why! Before the Qingzhangliu was successfully carried out in Wuxi, all the scholars and people in Wuxi were not allowed to take the scientific examination. Two capitals and one and three provinces, all Wuxi officials were dismissed from their posts! Wuxi abandoned me, and I also abandoned Wuxi!"

Fang Congzhe was very shocked after hearing this, thinking that it was His Majesty, so he replied: "Yes!"

"Add another thing, if the scholars and people in Wuxi dare to raise an army, I will dare to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress them!"

Zhu Youxiao said this and smiled coldly: "I don't believe it, the Ming Dynasty has really become their Ming Dynasty!"

...

Feng Quan rushed back to Wuxi with 3,000 people from the Biaoying camp.

This time he made his life.

Because he admitted that what Wang Yingjiao said was reasonable, he was the most powerful person in Nanzhili and the one with the greatest military power.

But this was the first time he had to face a reform action that would bleed and kill people, so he was still a little nervous.

Because he was too nervous, Feng Quan brought all his troops in the camp this time.

According to the Ming military system.

The army is divided into battalion soldiers and guard soldiers.

Needless to mention the soldiers of the garrison, except for the border towns, the soldiers of the inland garrison have almost been abandoned, and are no different from ordinary farmers.

The camp soldiers are the product of the recruitment system and are professional soldiers.

The battalion soldiers have strong combat effectiveness and have been trained.

But the battalion will not always exist. It is basically recruited for a war or recruited for a certain governor to form a standard camp.

As the Southeast Governor, Feng Quan naturally has the right to form his own battalion.

His battalion was naturally composed of the battalion soldiers he recruited himself, and even Li Ruobi, the general who commanded these battalions, was recommended and appointed by him.

In addition, Feng Quan can directly mobilize his own battalion, but he needs to report to the Ministry of War afterwards.

Therefore, the Bian Battalion that Feng Quan held can be said to be the most powerful local army in Nanzhili, and also the most controlled direct army of Feng Quan.

Otherwise, how could the governor hold military power?

It is a real local rank official.

However, if the three thousand battalions were in the hands of Wang Yangming and Sun Chuanting, the governors who had the ability to lead troops in history, could basically be used to quell a large-scale rebellion. It is indeed a bit unnecessary to deal with this civil unrest in Wuxi.

Therefore, when Feng Quan took the Sanqian Biao camp to Wuxi in a mighty manner, the magistrate Great-Emperor Hui was very scared.

"The officials have seen the platform!"

At this time, when Great-Emperor Hui learned that Feng Quan brought the three thousand battalions troops to Wuxi, he knelt in cold sweat and said to Feng Quan in the main hall of the county government.

"Mr. Zeng, you are quite brave. At that time, so many rioters attacked the county government, but you dared to run back to the county government to continue to be your county government. I am very respectful!"

Feng Quan said, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Come here, take the magistrate Great-Zuhui to me! I will strictly interrogate the crime of ineffective governance and causing trouble for the people. I also sent a letter to the Anti-Corruption Department and the Censor of the East Factory, and the Censor of the Inspectorate. I suspect that this person is guilty of corruption and hope that they will assist in the detailed investigation. If they cannot find it out then, I will personally investigate it. Don't blame Your Majesty for blaming them for negligence!"

Although Feng Quan lacked experience in being a governor, he was not stupid. When he saw that Great-Emperor Hui was still in the county government office, he guessed that Great-Emperor Hui might be in the same group as the gentry behind the rioters.

Great-Zhuhui was shocked after hearing this. First of all, he did not expect Feng Quan to make a comeback instead of complaining to the court first; secondly, he did not expect Feng Quan would directly bring more than 3,000 troops to fight against the rebellion. Moreover, he did not expect Feng Quan to suddenly become much tougher and actually imprison him first to punish him for his crime of greed.

Great-Zhuhui knew that the Ming Dynasty had already punished greed for ink and that once the evidence was conclusive, it was certain that skin was peeling.

Therefore, Great-Emperor Hui became panicked and kowtowed, "Give up your life to the maker! Give up your life! The officials have always been honest and dared not disturb the people. As for why civil chaos occurs, the officials really don't know!"

Feng Quan sneered, and also said to Great-Emperor Hui in the words Wang Yingjiao said to him: "You are the local magistrate. How could you not know why civil troubles occurred? Even if you don't know, then the official can punish you for dereliction of duty. If you say you can kill you!"

Feng Quan said, and then said, "I am the general general of the emperor, Nanzhili. I have the power to behead first and then report. Don't think that I am ignorant of the world! Forget it, you don't need to be tried for your crime of greed. Now the matter of clearing the land of the monks cannot be delayed. It's just right to borrow your head to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger."

As Feng Quan said this, he shouted loudly: "Send an order, please ask the king to order a flag! The magistrate, Great-Emperor Hui, will behead the magistrate! To calm the public's anger and to promote the obstacles of the new policy!"

"yes!"

The gang general Li Ruobi hurriedly replied, and waved his hand. Two soldiers with tiger backs and bears walked over to detain Great-Zu Hui.

Great-Zhu Hui struggled and shouted with a harsh and cowardly look: "Feng Quan! You evil villain, aren't you afraid of killing me to incite people's chaos again? You ask why the chaos in the people, you are not famous for yourself. Who among Wuxi knows that you are a traitor! Everyone can kill him!"

Great-Zhuhui yelled.

Feng Quan smiled coldly: "People's chaos? Do you still dare to threaten my official with the chaos? If the public's chaos is really caused by the killing of me, then you will definitely be the first one to be destroyed!"

As Feng Quan said, he mustered up the courage to say, "I want to see who dares to rebel! If the order is passed on, who dares to trespass the county government again, kill him or her!"

"yes!"

Li Ruobi replied.

In fact, even if the gentry wants to incite chaos, they have to take time to organize it.

After all, killing a county magistrate or clearing the land of the magistrate does not really involve the interests of ordinary people, so if there is no gentry instigation, the people will not take the initiative to cause trouble.

The people are not fools, and they cannot do their jobs without doing anything. They take the initiative to participate in these government disputes while hungry.

So far, no people have flocked to the county government.

After Feng Quan said to Li Ruobi, he waved his hand: "Catch it!"

Li Ruobi drew his knife because of this.

Seeing this, Great-Zhuhui shivered suddenly, and knelt down directly, and cried again: "Maintaining the platform! Give up your life! This has nothing to do with the officials. The officials have no intention of obstructing the new policy. During his tenure, the officials did not exploit the people, which led to the chaos of the county government. Although the officials did not have any clear evidence, the officials knew it. I also asked the officials to see that the officials were just a sesame official, so I spared the officials' life!"

Feng Quan believed that what Great Master Hui said was the truth now.

But just when Feng Quan was about to discuss with the Great Master Hui, he suddenly thought that Wang Yingjiao said that as the governor of the Southeast, he was the general command of the emperor to patrol the place, so he thought that he had to learn from His Majesty to do things in order to be worthy of the power given to him by His Majesty. He changed his mind and said, "You finally didn't hide it from me! But unfortunately, this official speech has been published and the king's orders have been requested, so there is no reason to go back on his word! The kindness does not control the military and righteousness, but the wealth. I bear the heavy trust of the emperor and is responsible for the great cause of long-term stability in the southeast. How can I change the orders every day?"

"cut!"

Feng Quan said as he said.

Click!

Li Ruobi cut off the head of Great Zuhui to the ground with a knife.

With a bang.

Feng Quan subconsciously felt vomiting, and for a moment he was still in place, thinking: "This, it seems that he really took action first and then reported it. Isn't it too hasty?"

What Feng Quan didn't know was that other officials from the county government had already respected him like a god, and they all knelt on the ground and started trembling. After all, the master of the Taiwan maker in front of him killed him as soon as he said he could kill him. Who knows if he would kill him?

"Who is the county magistrate?"

After a long time, Feng Quan remembered the serious matter and asked a question.

The county magistrate kneeling on the ground hurriedly climbed over and said tremblingly: "The lower-ranking official is the county magistrate Qiao Zhanggui, please tell the NTU Master!"

"You temporarily take the post of magistrate, and immediately organize someone to clear the land! This official personally supervises!"

Feng Quan said.

"Yes! The lower officials lead the life of the master of the National Taiwan University!"

County Magistrate Qiao hurriedly replied, but did not dare to neglect, so he immediately started to do so.

So, Feng Quan hurriedly took his three thousand battalions soldiers, Qiao County Cheng and others to the township, and came directly to the Gu family and began to clear the land and acres of Zhangzhang.
