"Audacious and lawless!"

Only one day later, the Ruzhou government received the official document submitted by Lushan County. Chang Rui used the Spring and Autumn style in the official document, saying that the Chen family stayed in Lushan County for two or three hours after breaking into the county government, and transported tens of thousands of stones of grain and supplies, etc., all in one go. However, he talked about Chen Ming's audacity and disregard for the law in more detail.

Of course, Li Zhao also received the letter from Lushan County early, and Li Tianhe did not dare to expire him, so he knew the details of yesterday's events, and even "received" Chen Ming's threats and intimidation to him through Li Tianhe's mouth.

Chen Ming didn't do much to Chang Rui, but took Li Tianhe, Huang Shao and a group of yamen runners, which was still very insightful. If a county magistrate had both legs broken because of the mob attacking the county government, it would be a big deal. It was an insult to the official body and position, and even rose to the majesty of the court. Now that the magistrate of Lushan County is fine, it is easy to cover up that the chief clerk and the registrar were attacked by the mob.

Yes, Chang Rui did not use the word "rebellion" to describe the Chen family in the official document, but called them "mobs"!

Wang Jun and Li Zhao also tacitly agreed with this conclusion.

"Sir, such people who disregard the king's law must be severely punished." Li Zhao said righteously: "We must not let the thieves' ambitions rise, so that the brave customs of the mountain people in Ruzhou will rise again."

The local governments of the Ming and Qing dynasties had no right to mobilize the soldiers of the court system - the Green Camp and the Eight Banners in the Qing Dynasty. The Green Camp and the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were under the jurisdiction of the generals and admirals of each province. Cross-provincial mobilization can only be carried out through the Ministry of War, and the garrisons of each prefecture and county can be mobilized through the provincial governor and admiral, but the local prefectures and prefectures have militias that can be mobilized, which belong to local volunteers and are not under the jurisdiction of the central government.

You may think of the Green Camp's battalion leader, standard bearer, and Eight Banners soldiers as field armies, while the militia can be thought of as the current armed police. Local officials can mobilize armed police, but not field armies. The admiral belongs to the military district commander, and the admiral of Henan Province is concurrently held by the governor, which means that both military and political power are on the shoulders of one person. The inter-provincial transfer of the Green Camp still needs to go through the Central Military Department, but it can be carried out within the province to suppress bandits, maintain public order, and other tasks, but this must be approved by the top leader. If the top leader does not nod, the mayor below can only use the armed police under his control. Take Ruzhou as an example. The Ruzhou Camp has about 300 soldiers. The Chen family could have used silver to mobilize them to "station" in Qingtiaoling, but without silver, it was not uncommon for the Ruzhou Camp to not even buy Wang Jun's face!

If you want to mobilize the Ruzhou Camp, you must get the nod of the provincial leader. Since Ruzhou has defined the Chen family's behavior as a "mob", it is within the scope of the local government's suppression. As long as Ruzhou can smooth things over, it will not be a problem.

"This official should quickly mobilize the volunteers to eradicate this gang of evil bandits. But..." Wang Jun stroked his goatee and looked embarrassed. "The state government is short of money and grain, and it is difficult to do so in a short time..."

If Wang Jun is asked to clean up the mess for Li Zhao and Chang Rui, how can he not take down a piece? This is the mess caused by Li Zhao and Chang Rui. Wang Jun is willing to cover it up, but you must also spit out some benefits.

"Your Excellency does not need to worry about money and grain. The gentry and wealthy families in Lushan County have raised 3,000 taels of silver to help you out of your urgent needs."

The Chen family ran away, and more than half of the tenants of the three farms of the Chen family ran away. These three farms have at least 1,500 acres, of which 400 acres are irrigated land by Zhaoping Lake and are fertile. Three thousand taels of silver was only a small part of the many properties abandoned by the Chen family. All the shops of the Chen family in other places were also confiscated, as well as the Chen family's house in the south of the city, and many properties owned by the Chen family in and outside the county.

Of course, Tumen Market is also indispensable.

Once this kind of thing happens, the entire Chen clan can't escape. The Chen family has been entrenched in Tumen Market for many years, and now it's all gone. Although Chang Rui lost face, he can't lose money by relying on the Chen family's property. Even if part of it must be used to fill the empty county treasury and Changping warehouse.

However, Wang Jun shared another sum of silver at this time. Even if Chang Rui had thousands of acres of land from the Chen family, he couldn't make money. Li Zhao is better than him in this respect. Li Zhao is equivalent to smashing the pot in Lushan County. They played too hard and played too much. But what about the Guan family in Zhuge Temple Town, Baofeng? The Guan family can't rebel, right?

Two pieces of fat meat, Li Zhao can at least eat one.

Li Zhao never thought that the Chen family would be so bold. This was not the first time he had done such a thing. He had never seen any family dare to attack the government and break the county government. Although they still gave Chang Rui some face and did not coerce the prisoners in the prison, the Chen family moved all the county warehouses and Changping warehouses. Only these two points would cost three to five thousand taels of silver.

There are also pensions for Zhou Tianyi and others. Chang Rui does not want to lose the hearts of the people and does not want to become a real lonely person in Lushan County, so he must pay another sum of money.

So the meat of the Chen family is very fat, but Chang Rui can't eat it.

Coming out of Wang Jun, Li Zhao looked at the screen wall not far away, and smiled bitterly. How can he be better than Chang Rui? If he had known that the Chen family could cause such a big disaster, why would he provoke them?

So far, he seems to have no major losses in this matter, and he can even make a fortune through the Guan family. But how many people in Ruzhou don't know that the Chen family's affairs were done by him and Chang Rui in partnership? Now that the Chen family has rebelled, Chang Rui and I are in trouble. Our prestige in the officialdom will plummet.

Tumen Collection.

The quiet town in the past is now completely in turmoil. The Chen family tried their best to persuade people to follow them into the mountains, and tried their best to buy and collect food, cloth and other daily necessities. The Chen family is retreating deep into the mountains.

Chen Ming still has hope to hold on to Xiaonangou, but there is really no possibility that Tumenji will continue to be controlled by the Chen family.

The only thing that makes the Chen family headache in this place that has prospered because of the Chen family is the Huang family. The Huang family's direct lineage is still only Chen Ming's cousin Huang Song, and the Huang family is unwilling to go up the mountain to become bandits. Chen Ming's uncle even said that he would give up Tumenji and move to other places. He would rather do so than follow the Chen family to that dead end!

Chen Ming wanted to mobilize the old lady to "reason" with the Huang family, but the old lady was unwilling. It seems that in the eyes of the old lady, the current path of the Chen family is also a dead end.

A day has passed, and there is still no movement in Lushan County. Instead, some wealthy households have begun to mobilize tenants to organize volunteers and transferred some of them to Lushan County. I don’t know whether it was Chang Rui’s request or the attack yesterday that frightened them.

When order is trampled, these high-ranking gentry and wealthy households will find that their status and their money cannot bring them the slightest sense of security. Only force can bring them to safety!

Chang Rui did not make any obvious moves, except for posting a few notices, characterizing yesterday’s incident as a mob attack on the government.
