166 The prince and general, rather have a kind(1/2)
"Stone Man...Stone Man..."
Zhang San ignored it and digged down hard.
He remembered it very clearly that three days ago, he buried the stone man in this position with his own hands.
I also marked it at the beginning, so I can't remember it wrong!
But, my fingers were all worn out, where is the stone man?
"Stop, I'll let you stop!"
The supervisor thought that Zhang San was crazy about gaining and losing his mind, so he took two steps forward carefully, but he didn't dare to get too close.
Zhang San's eyes were red and he murmured: "Stone man...Stone man has one eye, which will provoke the Yellow River to rebel the world!"
This time, the supervisor in front of him turned green.
"Rebel, rebel... Come and catch the thief!"
Among the crowd, Zhang San's accomplices saw that the situation was not good, so they rushed forward and rushed towards the officials.
"The court is tyrannical and officials are unkind. Everyone goes together and fight with them!"
"Don't say that the stone man has one eye to provoke the Yellow River to rebel the world. The stone man has already come out, what are we waiting for?"
"Why would you rather have a king, prince, general, and minister!"
In an instant, dozens of people rushed out of the crowd from all directions, shouting various slogans loudly, and the scene was about to lose control.
These people have been lurking for at least a month, busy spreading rumors everywhere every day, but they have no results. Today's stone people are undoubtedly their last chance.
A riot immediately broke out in the crowd, and the officials and supervisors at the scene were immediately facing a great enemy because they were surrounded by the crowd and could not escape in such a situation.
However, the situation did not continue to deteriorate, and the people were more watching the fun.
During the melee, Zhang San rushed to a melon-eating crowd, grabbed his arm, and shouted: "We have been waiting for a long time, why are we waiting for? Let's go together!"
However, the person he caught pulled back his arm with a disgusting look on his face.
Zhang San shouted: "You haven't done anything yet, when will you wait?"
"I'm sick!"
The man took two steps back, kept a distance from Zhang San, and continued to watch the fun.
At this time, a noisy sound came from outside. Everyone looked in the sound and saw a man dressed in a scholar riding a horse, following a group of officers and soldiers coming towards the river bank.
This person was Beilin. Zhu Qizhen left him in Huai'an Prefecture to check the accounts, but he seemed more interested in suppressing the rebellion. When he heard something happened here, he rushed over immediately.
Zhang San felt completely cold when he looked at the indifferent people in front of him.
"You...rebelled, what are you looking at!"
He yelled hysterically, but the next second...
"Bah!"
A mouthful of thick phlegm was exhaled on the face, hot and sticky...
"Everyone has food to eat, money to get it, and rebel every day. Are you wrong?"
"That's right, my old man has never heard of such a good job!"
"Whoever wants to rebel is really broken."
Hearing the words of the people around him, Zhang San almost spurted out his old blood and shouted: "Did you buy you with a little wage? You fools, fools... hahaha..."
Seeing that he was crying and laughing, the people around him couldn't help but take a few steps back, fearing that the loss of mind would lead to contagion.
Belin arrived at the scene and immediately directed people to control all the troublemakers, but the stubborn ones were still struggling.
"Don't think it's over to catch us. Don't tell me that the stone man has one eye. Now that the stone man is coming, the world is already..."
"You're blind!"
Before this person could finish his words, Belin called him a big game to his head.
"Where are you going to the stone man? Open your dog's eyes and see, where is the stone man?"
"Stone man, stone man..."
The man searched around and didn't see the stone man, so he turned his eyes to Zhang San, with the words of confusion written on his face.
He just leaned far away. When he heard the news from Zhang San, he thought the stone man had been born, but where was it...
Belin raised his hand and ordered, "Come on, tie up all these thieves who are in trouble!"
Immediately afterwards, all the officers and soldiers rushed forward and tied up all the troublemakers.
"Ahem, everyone listened!"
Beilin cleared her throat and sang: "These people are all rebels from the White Lotus Sect! Three months ago, the assassins of the White Lotus Sect went to the capital to murder the emperor. They failed. They were thieves. Seeing that the court spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build the river embankment, they came to deliberately destroy it because they didn't want to see the court successfully repair the river embankment. After the river embankment was repaired, everyone would live a good life. Who would they seek to rebel?"
Hearing this, everyone began to talk. They thought they were a group of crazy people, and they had nothing to do after eating, but they didn't expect that they were so deliberate.
Most of the people who came to build the river bank came from the local area.
The Yellow River broke its dam and their farmland was backflowed, causing heavy losses. If it weren't for the large-scale recruitment of workers in the court, many people would have starved to death.
When they learned that these people had put their ideas on the river bank, they immediately became angry and started to scold.
Some people couldn't even curb them and rushed forward, punching and kicking Zhang San and others.
"My wife and the baby were drowned. Now the court has paid for money to build the river bank. You guys who kill thousands of swords have to make trouble, right? I'll let you do it, let you do it!"
"Calm down, calm down, brother, please calm down!"
Belin hurriedly pulled the people away. His task was to prevent the people from being suffocated. Looking at the indignant look of everyone, he thought to himself, don't cause any trouble because of his own words...
"I understand everyone's feelings very much. I must wish I could beat these rebels to death with my own hands. However, the court has a law, and they are a crime of rebellion and will never be spared. Now I want to say another thing!"
Everyone then calmed down and looked at Belin, waiting for him to continue talking.
"In order to provoke trouble, these White Lotus thieves have been lurking for a long time. According to reliable information, there are far more than these people. The rest are hidden around everyone. Just imagine, do people often spread all kinds of rumors on weekdays?"
After Belin finished speaking, everyone began to talk.
"After you say this, I really remember that there is a man named Wang who came over every now and then, saying that the official deducted food and bullied the people. Could it be that he was also a thief of the White Lotus Sect?"
"Yes, there are also people who are very suspicious here. Everyone is discussing Cuju. He says something inexplicable every day. Everyone thought it was strange at that time. Now when they think about it, this person must be a thief."
"I've seen it too..."
Seeing everyone talking and talking, and the discussion was so excited, Belin smiled with satisfaction.
"I announced that if you arrest the White Lotus Rebels, you will be rewarded with 5 taels of silver. If you can provide reliable clues and assist the official in successfully arresting, you will be rewarded with 2 taels of silver!"
Buzz!
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd was in an uproar.
If you catch a thief, you can also provide two taels of clues. This is money!
Ordinary families may not be able to earn two taels of silver a year. You can imagine how crazy this reward is to everyone.
Immediately afterwards, the vigorous arrest of the thieves began.
Everyone's eyes were full of green light, as if they looked like a thief from the White Lotus Sect...
Belin returned to the camp and took Zhang San and others to a temporary interrogation room.
"Tell me, who sent you?"
Zhang San sneered: "I want to talk out from our mouths, go to dream!"
Belin was not angry either, and gave an order and brought another person in.
"Now let's play a game, the rules are very simple, choose one of two."
Zhang San said in confusion: "What to choose one of two?"
Belin's lips raised slightly and said, "That is to say, only one of you two can survive. Listen clearly, there is only one!"
Zhang San's face changed and he said, "Those who do great things will inevitably shed blood and sacrifice. We are fortunate to follow the Holy Master, and we will have no regrets in this life!"
"Don't rush to shout, that's it..."
As he spoke, Belin took out a copper coin from his body and asked, "Foreign or reverse?"
“What…what?”
Zhang San didn't react, so Belin had to repeat: "I'll ask you, right or wrong?"
“Only…right…or…”
Before he could finish speaking, Belin threw the copper coin, then pressed it on the table, slowly moving his hand away.
"It's the opposite, you have no chance!"
Zhang San was stunned. What does it mean that there is no chance?
Belin waved her hand behind her and said, "Pull it down and chop it!"
"yes!"
