Chapter 330 0325 [Get justice for you]

State School, in the southeast corner of Jinzhou City.

This school was almost abolished directly, and a veteran official who had been an official in Jinzhou requested that Jinzhou State School be kept.

However, there are only [-] students left, and the three-round method will no longer be used to divide classes.

The old principal has been transferred back to the capital to wait for vacancies, and the new principal is an unlucky guy who was admitted to Jinshi last year.

There are only two teachers left, and they are not interested in teaching.

Under the big tree where Ju Ming used to give lectures, grass has started to grow, because most of the school's handymen have also been dismissed.

Zhang Tong, Li Bao and many students, whether they came from Guizhou or those local scholars, were tricked into attending lectures in the middle of the morning.

Zhu Ming treated him equally, and Zhang Gen, the father-in-law, was also tricked into coming here.

Waiting and waiting, Ju Ming has not yet appeared, so Zhang Gen simply gave lectures by himself, focusing on the similarities and differences of Xinxue, Shuxue, Luoxue, and Daoyongxue.

The old man has been bored in the past few years, he can only study every day, and his knowledge has improved a lot.

"Whirring whirring……"

A local scholar rushed in, bent over tired, stuck out his tongue, pressed his hands on his knees and panted heavily: "First... sir... you rebelled!"

Everyone didn't react, and Zhang Gen even asked: "Which gentleman rebelled? Is there another Fang La in the world?"

The scholar had also received the news that he went to school this morning to attend a class, but was delayed because of something at home.At this moment, he hurriedly explained: "It's Taishou Zhu, Zhu...Mr. Zhu, I...I came out of the house and saw Taishou Zhu leading soldiers and bandits, heading straight for the north gate. I called, sir, sir! He But he refused, and kept walking north. I... I saw Mr. Zhu, and without a word, I detained the city gate soldiers, and his soldiers occupied the north gate!"

Everyone was horrified when they heard the words, and they felt incredible.

Zhang Gen said: "It may be that the city gate guards committed crimes. He really can't understand it, and he broke the law and took action."

"No..." the scholar said, "I don't understand the situation, and the North City Gate is very close to the prefectural and county yamen. I went to the prefectural and county yamen to find out that there are only subalterns in the yamen, and all the officials were invited to Qingfenglou! When I went to Qingfeng Building again, I found that there were a large number of soldiers guarding the building, and all the officials were blocked inside and couldn't get out!"

Zhang Gen suddenly felt dark. According to this description, his son-in-law is very likely to have really rebelled!

"Follow me to Qingfeng Building!" Zhang Gen said dryly.

Everyone was walking out when Liu Shiren, the head of Tiemao Village, came in suddenly, smiled and cupped his hands: "I greet Zhang Tuanlian, and I have met all the scholars."

Zhang Gen questioned, "What does your husband-in-law intend to do?"

Liu Shiren said: "Sweep out evil spirits and help the country!"

"Bold!"

Zhang Gen yelled angrily, almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, what did he choose to be his son-in-law?
I am afraid that most of the [-] yuan that my daughter gave as a dowry was used to fund the rebellion!

Zhang Tong looked at Li Bao, and said with a dry throat, "Master Xianggong really rebelled, no wonder I feel uncomfortable all the way."

However, Li Bao asked a question: "Do you think Mr. Xiang decided to join the army after he was dismissed, or did he start planning several years ago?"

Zhang Tong thought about it carefully, and said dumbfounded: "I'm afraid it was before he was dismissed from office!"

The two of them have always been by Ju Ming's side, and they have been most influenced by their thoughts, and they know Ju Ming's situation best.

I didn't think about that before, but now everything is connected!

Li Bao is more of a bachelor: "To rebel is to rebel and make a fuss with your husband."

Zhu Ming repeatedly inculcated the idea that the people are more important than the emperor, and he often discussed the situation in the world. Both of them felt that Song Dynasty was hopeless.But after all, Zhang Tong is a descendant of a famous official, and he was also from a wealthy family in Shandong. It is a psychological burden for him to rebel.

Li Bao has already stated his position, but Zhang Tong is still struggling.

Chen Dong, Wei Liangchen, Fu Yuanheng, Lei Guan... These students who were persuaded to retire from the imperial school are already crazy at the moment, and they can't figure out why the teacher rebelled.

Fu Yuanheng was the most radical at ordinary times, and his family was the worst victimized. 10,000+ family property disappeared, and now only some shops and land have been taken back.

Occasionally, the more he thought about it, the more wronged he became, and Fu Yuanheng would say angry words of simply rebelling, but when Zhu Ming really did this, he fell into a state of bewilderment instead.

Liu Shiren said: "If you plan to leave Jinzhou, please wait a month before leaving. My husband will never stop you. If you have any doubts in your heart, come and walk with me."

"lead the way!"

Zhang Gen was so angry that he held back the evil fire.

Everyone walked towards Qingfeng Tower, but they heard shouts coming from there.

Guo Wenzhong took many clerks and yamen officials to pacify the people in the Xiangfang market, and shouted along the street: "Go back to your home, don't panic, Zhu Taishou is the master of the people, and will not hurt the people at all! "

Guo Wenzhong was the second-in-command of Jinzhou civil officials, and Wang Jia was the first-in-command of Jinzhou Yaqian officials.

Although the two of them faintly revealed the meaning of "following the thief", Zhu Ming didn't dare to trust them completely. He didn't send someone to send a message to Guo Wenzhong until the mobilization was launched today.

As for Wang Jia, he is now taking Yaqian officials to appease thieves in various counties.

There are officials responsible for maintaining order, and it is Zhu Ming who is making troubles. The city of Jinzhou quickly stabilized, and the common people hid in their homes to wait and see the changes.

At the Qingfeng Tower, the officials' followers initially planned to resist, but were easily taken down by Yang Zhi's troops.

Every official, like a concubine, has been tied up at this moment.

Zhang Gen and many scholars just ran into the officials.

Zhizhou Han Zhao yelled angrily: "Zhang Gen, you have done such a great thing that you actually conspired with your son-in-law!"

Zhang Gen quickly defended: "It has nothing to do with me, it's the thief who made his own claim!"

The judge, He Zhengqing, asked: "Why are we all bound, but you are walking on the street?"

"I...I..." Zhang Gen felt that yellow mud fell into his crotch, it was either shit or shit, he clenched his fists and said, "I was hurt by that thief!"

Liu Shiren smiled and said, "Everyone, please."

Two or three hundred people went out of the city gate to the pier.

The common people found out that there was no major disturbance, and some people dared to take to the streets and followed the tied officials out of the city to watch the excitement.

The Xiang army outside the city had already gathered, and the officers counted the number of people, as if Zhu Ming was reviewing the army.

"The general stepped forward to obey the order!" Zhu Ming shouted.

Immediately, two people turned and walked towards Zhu Ming.

"Lu Lian, commander of the Jinzhou Xiangjun Ma Jun, has met Zhu Xianggong!"

"Jinzhouxiang Army Infantry Commander Yang Anshi, met Mr. Zhu!"

The Jinzhou Xiang Army has no regular cavalry at all, only some conscripts riding horses. Lu Lian, the commander of the horse army, is like a polished commander.

Zhu Ming asked: "Do you get enough food and salary on weekdays?"

Lu Lian was amused: "Sir, don't you want to amuse us, who in the world can get enough food and salary?"

Zhu Ming said: "When I lead troops, I have to pay enough food and salary. I haven't been admitted to the Jinshi yet. I suppressed thieves in Xixiang County, and all the archers under my command are paid enough. If the subordinates want to deduct money, I take the archers and go to the county. The yamen will beat up all the posters one by one! I will go to Hanyuan County, Lizhou, to train troops to conquer the barbarians, and the Xiang army and township soldiers there will all be fully paid!"

The Xiang army in front of them was envious from top to bottom, and only hated Mr. Zhu, why didn't he become their chief?

Zhu Ming pointed to the boats transporting money and food by the river: "There are food and money on the boats, which are all obtained by exploiting the people of Jinzhou. But you can't eat enough and don't wear well, so they are all transported to Xiangyang, and then transferred to Tokyo. The emperor sent it. Are you happy?"

No one answered, but everyone looked angry.

"Can I help you get your food back?" Zhu Ming asked again.

Lu Lian, Yang Anshi and other military officers gradually understood what it meant, and looked at Zhu Ming as if they had seen a ghost.

Zhu Ming said: "Xiang military conscripts, go and move the money and food on the boat back to the shore!"

Lu Lian and Yang Anshi looked at each other, this is an order to lose their heads.

Nearly a hundred soldiers behind Zhu Ming took a few steps forward in unison. If the two Xiang army commanders dared not follow, they would be chopped into meat sauce on the spot.

Lu Lian bit the bullet and said, "Bring the money and food back."

When the conscripts were carrying money and food, Yang Zhi escorted the officials.

Those officials, some cursed, some cried and begged for mercy.

Zhu Ming got impatient and ordered: "It's very noisy, shut their mouths up!"

Yang Zhi immediately complied, and quickly calmed down.

Zhang Gen quickened his pace and ran, burning with anger, his beard and hair standing on end, pointing at Zhu Ming and angrily scolding: "What the hell are you trying to do, you bastard?"

Zhu Ming asked back: "Master Taishan still can't understand? The Song Dynasty is hopeless, and the people of the world are in dire straits. Countless people starve to death every year. Humanity is rampant, and the law of heaven is sluggish. I want to do justice for the sky!"

Chen Dong also ran forward: "Sir, didn't you agree to wait for the crown prince to ascend the throne?"

Zhu Ming asked: "What if the emperor can live another 30 years? Do all the people in the world have to suffer with him for another 30 years? With the way of this stupid king, let alone 30 years, even three years later, all walks of life will have to suffer. If there are thieves, there will be more than one or two like Fang La and Song Jiang!"

Wei Liangchen said: "Sir, what's the difference between Fang La and Song Jiang?"

Zhu Ming pointed at Fu Yuanheng: "Your family property has been robbed, so tell me, how did Fang La harm the local people?"

Fu Yuanheng said: "According to the family letter, Fang La only robbed the government and evil gentry at the beginning of his army, and did not force the people to join the gang. He did not kill good officials, but persuaded them to take refuge. If the good officials did not obey, they were released. But After taking down Shezhou, they began to coerce the people, killing both good and bad officials. Rich households but those who disobeyed often ransacked their homes and wiped out their families."

Zhu Ming asked again: "When the officers and soldiers suppressed bandits, how did they treat the common people?"

Fu Yuanheng said: "Officers and soldiers must requisition food on the spot when they cross the border. The soldiers in charge of collecting food took the opportunity to extort and rob the local people again."

Zhu Ming asked Wei Liangchen, "Am I the same as Fang La and Song Jiang?"

Wei Liangchen replied: "Mr. making a rebellion will not harm the people, but the imperial court will send troops to conquer. I will not kill Boren, but Boren will die because of me. Mister will kill countless people."

Zhu Ming asked: "If I don't have soldiers, the world will not be chaotic? If I don't have soldiers, the people will not be killed by the emperor? If I occupy Hanzhong, I can keep Hanzhong safe. If I occupy Chuanxia, ​​I can make Chuanxia stable!" "

Zhang Tong asked suddenly: "Is the gentleman going to remonstrate?"

Zhu Ming said: "What's the use of remonstrance? With the habit of a foolish king, if he is asked to dismiss the six thieves today, he will be able to promote ten or a hundred thieves in another day."

Zhang Tong said: "Admonitions forced the emperor to abdicate, and supported the prince to ascend the throne to rule the world. The prince is quite famous, and he should be the lord of a generation."

As soon as this remark came out, the scholars felt that it was reasonable.

Zhu Ming asked: "Unless I lead troops to fight outside Tokyo, will the emperor abdicate?"

Zhang Tong shook his head: "No."

Zhu Ming said: "If I lead my troops to Tokyo, even if the crown prince succeeds in enthroning, can I spare the people who followed me? It doesn't matter if I am killed, the soldiers under my command will be in disorder. When no one restrains me, Gyeonggi may be slaughtered for nothing." !"

Zhang Tong hesitated to speak, not knowing how to refute.

Zhu Ming asked the two commanders of the Xiang army: "Which official is deducting your salary? We must seek justice today!"
