Chapter 1464: ulterior motives
Zhu Houzhao was fooled by Ye Chunqiu to Beitongzhou. Although he was angry, he thought that Ye Chunqiu was about to fall into danger and was anxious, but instead he was worried about Ye Chunqiu.
In fact, although Ye Chunqiu has always been a good thing in his work, he couldn't say he was fearless when he rushed to Shunyi County this time, so he could not take Zhu Houzhao with him, but he couldn't stop Zhu Houzhao. In the end, he could only use some tricks to keep Zhu Houzhao in a safe place. Although he could imagine how angry Zhu Houzhao would be, he would rather bear the wrath of Zhu Houzhao than Zhu Houzhao's safety.
So after parting ways with the carriage where Zhu Houzhao was riding, Ye Chunqiu rushed to Shunyi without stopping, and there were people he caring about waiting for him to rescue him...
However, as soon as he arrived, Ye Chunqiu saw that there were already a lot of military tents outside the small Shunyi City, and countless troops sharpened their knives.
This Shunyi is a capital, so the court responded very quickly, and the military and horses were drawn in time, without delay.
The person responsible for controlling the army was Zhu Fu, Duke Cheng. He personally welcomed Ye Chunqiu and was surprised to learn that Ye Chunqiu was going to enter the city to surrender.
Zhu Fu looked at Ye Chunqiu worriedly and said, "Duke Zhenguo, the mob in the city knew that he had committed a death sentence and would never be able to put down his weapons easily. Duke Zhenguo is the pillar of the court. How could he take such a risk?"
Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "It's okay. I have figured out the details of these traitors. They can't hold me hostage."
Zhu Fu was stunned for a moment, unable to understand where Ye Chunqiu's confidence came from, but he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sin Guogong has this confidence, what else can I say? Be careful."
After saying that, Zhu Fu ordered people to shoot arrows tied with letters into the city. Half an hour later, arrows flew out of the city and sent a letter.
Zhu Fu ordered people to pick up the letter and opened it and read it with Ye Chunqiu. The handwriting inside was crooked, and the general meaning was to invite the imperial envoy from the court to enter the city.
Zhu Fu looked at the crooked words and smiled and said, "Looking at the handwriting, it's true that he is a mob, and most of it is just a rough article."
Ye Chunqiu shook his head and said, "Please take a closer look. Although the handwriting is crooked, there are a few strokes that are deliberately paused. The person who writes the words with his left hand."
"Hmm?" Zhu Fu was stunned. After a closer look, he found that Ruoye Chunqiu said.
At this time, Ye Chunqiu said: "It shows that this person is obviously not as simple as being a good writer. He may have done so to conceal his true identity."
Zhu Fu frowned with confusion and said, "What are he doing if he is a traitor, he is hiding his handwriting? You need to know that as soon as the army arrives, they will be destroyed."
Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "It's unknown. Those incited rioters may do something that makes them regret for a moment. They have no way to go, but the incitement behind them may not reveal their true identity. Since they can hide in Shunyi and incite chaos, they must have the ability to hide their identity and escape after the matter is completed. Judging from their clues, these people are all ulterior motives, and everything is planned and planned. Since they have chosen this way, they will leave a way out for themselves. In the end, they are just a group of pitiful 'disruptors'. Those incitement are afraid that they have already been free from justice."
Zhu Fu did not think so deeply, and couldn't help but say with a grim eyebrow: "The Duke Zhenguo said something. Now they asked Duke Zhenguo to enter the city, but Duke Zhenguo should be careful."
Ye Chunqiu said, "Please rest assured Duke Chengguo. If there is no news within three days, please lead the army to attack the city immediately, and there will be a period of time later."
After saying that, Ye Chunqiu brought a dozen new army students to the city. As expected, a gap was opened in the city gate. Ye Chunqiu entered calmly and found that dense swords and guns were aimed at him.
The leader was a bearded man. He stood up and stared at Ye Chunqiu with his eyes fiercely, saying, "Are you Ye Shou, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites?"
Ye Chunqiu said calmly: "That's right, I was ordered by the court and heard that the Shunyi County government bullies the people and the people could not bear it anymore. So he killed the officials. Your Majesty has the virtue of living. Nianyou and others are the officials who force the people to rebel. They ordered me to come and seek pacification. If I am willing to open the city and ask for surrender, I will not blame everything."
Ye Chunqiu said, and then looked at the reactions of these people. Most of them looked cold. The bearded man just smiled coldly and said, "Is that so? Thank you, the emperor, for coming and unloading their weapons."
Immediately afterwards, dozens of people rushed up, and dozens of people were on guard in the distance carrying bird guns. Ye Chunqiu was calm and allowed them to take away the swords around his waist. As for the other students, they did not bring firearms, they were just swords, and these swords were taken down one after another.
The bearded man stared at Ye Chunqiu for a moment and said, "But this matter is of great importance, but I must ask you to suffer a little grievance. I will stay in prison for two days. At that time, my general will ask you to talk."
After saying that, with a urge, dozens of "disruptive people" escorted Ye Chunqiu into the city, and arrived near the county government office and imprisoned Ye Chunqiu in a prison.
This should be the prison in Shunyi County. There is a smell of rotten smell. Each cell is separated by a wooden fence. Ye Chunqiu was pushed into a cell. There was a pile of sewage in the cell. Because it was not visible to light for many years, there was sludge everywhere. The guards smiled and locked the prison door, while whispering: "That little lady is really interesting..."
"Ha... Someone is here to change shifts tonight, so we might as well..."
After saying that, they had already left.
Ye Chunqiu was calm and composed, and seemed to have prepared for this result.
However, there was another person in the prison. When he saw Ye Chunqiu coming in and there was a prison guard, he didn't dare to speak. When they left, he got up from the mud, looked at Ye Chunqiu carefully, and said, "You... are the officials of the court? Haven't asked for advice yet."
Ye Chunqiu carefully identified him, but because his vision was dim, he only saw him wearing an official robe with a disheveled head and a dirty face.
Ye Chunqiu asked back: "Who are you?"
The man hesitated for a moment and said, "I am Wang Ru, the damn rebels, oh..." Rubbed his arm, then sighed, "A few days ago, somehow, the incident suddenly happened, and there were shouting for killing everywhere. The magistrate quickly summoned the officers, but in the end he summoned dozens of people. Before he could react, he was dispersed by the thieves. The magistrate was chopped off his head on the spot. I... I was also afraid, but I was responsible for defending the territory, but I didn't dare to escape. I had to take a few police officers to resist stubbornly. In the end, I was detained by them because I was defeated."
