Chapter 24

After half an hour.

above the lobby.

The high-ranking officials of the Nanyang County Mansion gathered together. The prefect Zhang Zi was at the first place. The county magistrate Liu Jin, the chief secretary Tan Song, and the chief secretary Kuai Feng sat on their knees and lined up on the left. Sima Jiyi is on the right.

"This is the playbook of Wuyin Shangzu, you can read it all later!" Zhang Zi threw out a playbook and said indifferently.

"Wuyin sent troops to suppress the bandits?"

"Wuyin Zhu's family colluded with the Yellow Turban rebels?"

"Back then, Zhang Mancheng's number one general, Mu Shan, was beheaded by an unknown Wuyin Orion, isn't it possible?"

"Zhang Chuan, who is it?"

"The Zhu family is a Wuyin gentry, and it is the least possible to collude with the Yellow Turban rebels. It is absurd, too absurd!"

After wandering around this melody among the crowd, everyone was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

"What do you think?" Zhang Consulting asked.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates believe that Wuyin County lied about its achievements. Mushan was the number one general of the Yellow Turban in Nanyang back then. He broke through Wancheng with three hammers. He was so brave. How could he be beheaded by small hunters? Concealment!"

Captain Huang Meng cupped his hands and said, his voice was as loud as thunder.

Huang Meng is a native of Jiangxia. At that time, Jiangxia's captain, Qin Jie's army Sima, Qin Jie was in danger, and he became the prefect of Nanyang. He led the Jiangxia army to fight against the Nanyang Yellow Turban. He naturally followed and was appointed as the captain.

Qin Jie fought Zhang Mancheng many times, and killed Zhang Mancheng in the end, and he also fought Mushan more than once. He understands the strength of Mushan better than anyone else. This is the most important reason why he has not been able to wipe out the remnants of the Yellow Turban for so many years. one reason.

Mu Shan alone is comparable to his thousand troops.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates are also quite suspicious!" Chang Shi Tan Song said coldly: "The Zhu family is a famous Wuyin family. The gentry family is Xiaochu. Most of the clan are scholars. Loyal to the emperor and patriotic, how could they join forces with the remnants of the Yellow Turbans to rebel against the imperial court, and everyone knows that the Yellow Turban rebels are mobs who hate all the children of famous families, a certain family can't believe that they can get together again!"

He was originally a descendant of the Tan family of the famous Nanyang family, but during the Yellow Turban Uprising, the Nanyang family in Wancheng was basically wiped out. He escaped by chance and took refuge in Qin Jie, who suppressed thieves back then, as the prefect Governor history.

He not only hated the Yellow Turban bandits, but also integrated many powerful locals in Nanyang County to support him in order to consolidate his position. Therefore, he married Wuyin Zhu's daughter as his concubine, and won Wuyin Zhu 's support.

Now that the Wuyin Zhu family has been wiped out, and even slandered as colluding with the Yellow Turban Bandits, he is naturally angry.

"This performance was originally performed by Cai Mengting, the magistrate of Wuyin County. It may not be fake. Such a great victory should be reported to the imperial court!"

The head book, Kuaifeng, is a collateral branch of the Jingzhou family of the Kuai family. The Jingzhou family has always shared weal and woe. Not counting the Pang family known as the Confucian Qingliu, the Kuai family and the Cai family have always been in the same boat, so they can have today's prosperity.

He naturally wants to speak for Cai Mengting.

"Your Majesty, there are too many doubts about this matter. Why don't you call Cai Mengting to the county town and Zhang Chuan, a Wuyin righteous man, to inquire and make a decision?"

Military Sima Jiyi was impartial and said in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, what Ji Sima said is right. It is not advisable to make a conclusion too early. It must be investigated!" Juncheng Liu Jin is from Yingchuan, and Zhang Zi is from the same town. After Zhang Zi took office, he was weak and weak. So he recommended Liu Jin as the master, and this is his only confidant in the prefect's mansion.

"You are all right!"

Zhang Zi's expression was calm, he looked at a person's expression and reaction, and he had some confidence in his heart, and then handed out a memorial book: "Here is another memorial book, which was played by Gu Peng, the ancient family of the Wuyin gentry. The content of it is to impeach Cai Tu, the magistrate of Wuyin County, to collude with the Yellow Turban rebels, to kill Zhu's family, to slaughter the county, and to monopolize power. He also said that this Wuyin righteous man is a fake at all. I have already taken refuge in Cai Tu, so you think the content of this memorial is true or not!"

"what?"

"Cai Tu dares to collude with the Yellow Turban rebels?"

"This should be slander!"

"He's audacious!"

"Send troops, send troops immediately to wipe out such rebellious thieves, with the prestige of Zhengnanyang Prefect's Mansion, we must not let them disturb the place!"

When Zhang Zi said this, some people were surprised, some people didn't believe it, and some people were filled with righteous indignation.

"This matter is related to the safety of Nanyang, so it should not be underestimated!"

Zhang Zi clapped his hands to calm everyone down, and then continued: "However, Governor Wang has sent a letter, recommending Cai Tu!"

"Inspector Wang?"

"How did this matter get to the Governor's Mansion!"

Everyone's face was gloomy.

Jingzhou Governor’s Mansion is not a local yamen, it’s an imperial yamen, it doesn’t have the power to manage the local area, but it has the power to directly report to the imperial court and impeach local officials. On top of the heads of officials in various counties.

The governor of Jingzhou is Wang Rui.

Wang Rui is the confidant of General He Jin, he and Zhang Zi are considered to be from the same school, so Zhang Zi had to think about his recommendation.

"I have no choice but to consider Wang Inspector's recommendation, so I decided to call Cai Tu and Zhang Chuan to Wancheng to confront each other. Do you think it's good?"

Although Zhang Zi was the prefect of Nanyang, his control over Nanyang was only about two or three tenths. There were county soldiers in every county, and most of the orders to the county government were obeyed but not announced, and there were many violators.

So even though he clearly knew that most of the Zhu clan was wronged, this matter should be the same as what happened in Gu Peng's Shangzuo, but he could not send troops without authorization. Once he sent troops, the situation in Wancheng would definitely be shaken.

He is from Yingchuan, he came from a poor family, studied poetry and books hard, but no one is worthy of his filial piety, only you recommended yourself to the General's Mansion as an aide, and was recommended by General He Jin, to be able to fight in the Qin Jie War. The only way to die is to enter Nanyang and worship as the prefect of Nanyang.

He is talented and learned, but after arriving in Nanyang, he realized that it was difficult for him to move an inch here. After more than two years of hard work, and after inviting Liu Jin, a great talent from his hometown, to be the governor of the county, he gradually took control of the situation a little bit.

Now, he doesn't dare to use weapons.

"So good!"

"That's how it should be!"

"I want to see what Cai Tu has to say!"

"If he really colludes with the Yellow Turban rebels, I will behead him!"

When everyone heard the words, they quickly nodded in agreement.

At this time, even they dare not propose to send troops. Firstly, it is the twelfth lunar month of winter, and sending troops to conquer is quite unfavorable. Second, after all, Jingzhou Governor's Office has already intervened in this matter, and they have to consider the face of the Governor's Office. .
