Ci Jinzhi Chapter 285

Chapter 285 To be punished

 Jinlinwei suddenly captured Zheng Zhixian County, which shocked everyone.

Zheng Zhixian ignored the pain and glared at He Qingxiao: "He Zhenzhi, what do you mean?"

He Qingxiao looked at him with an indifferent expression: "Zheng Ming, the magistrate of Ling County, accepted bribes from the head of Wuyun Village, turned a blind eye to the banditry, and allowed the people to be massacred by bandits..."

 Listening to He Qingxiao's cold words about Zheng Zhixian's charges, the people were in an uproar.

“What, the county master actually colluded with the bandits?”

“No wonder so many people were robbed and killed by bandits and the government didn't do anything. It turned out that they had received benefits from bandits…”

Zheng Zhixian knew that he could no longer be passive and shouted at the young man's delicate and cold face: "Nonsense! It's clear that you are pretending to be Jin Linwei to frame me and intend to rebel! Someone -"

Hulala, many yamen servants poured out from the yamen, holding weapons and hesitantly daring to come forward.

Whether he is a fake Jinlinwei or not, the county master is still in the hands of these people.

Xin You sat on the horse and smiled coldly: "Corrupt official named Zheng, you are still making excuses at this time!"

She raised her hand, shook out the confession signed by the headmaster in the forest, and pointed to the headmaster who was controlled by a Jinlin guard: "This person is the headmaster of Wuyun Village. This is the confession he signed with his own hands. The dog officer's dealings and the benefits received by the dog officer are clearly written!”

As soon as the people heard that the bandit who was **** by Wu Hua Da was the boss, they couldn't help but squeeze forward to get a clear look.

"Don't believe these people, they just grabbed people and said they were bandits, and they wanted to take over the county government and cause trouble!" Magistrate Zheng shouted with red eyes.

Except for a few people in the county government who were smelly and tough, they had already listened to his words after tasting the sweetness he gave. There were no more than a dozen of these Jinlin Guards, and they were eradicated with fake names. Then they either found ways to deceive their superiors, or they escaped secretly. It was better than being arrested now for colluding with gangsters.

Zheng Zhixian was a little panicked when he was restrained, but he did not accept his fate.

The county government has hundreds of troops, and they can deal with more than a dozen Jinlin guards.

"Zheng Ming, you are the one who colluded with the bandits with evil intentions!" The crime of ignoring the life and death of the people should be punished!"

As soon as he finished speaking, while people were still shocked by the flashing golden token, a Jinlin guard who controlled Zheng Zhixian County waved his long sword, and a head flew high into the air.

The flying head fell down and rolled a few times on the ground. Zheng Zhixian's eyes widened, and an expression of disbelief solidified on his face.

"ah!"

Screams were heard everywhere, and the headless body fell to the ground. The high-ranking county master in the hearts of the people died like this.

 “Your Majesty!” Several officials were excited and wanted to come forward, but they did not dare to approach.

The government officials armed with guns and sticks subconsciously gathered around these officials, and they were at a loss for what to do.

There are also many of these people who are usually domineering and domineering, but they have never seen and cannot imagine the scene of cutting off the head of the county master with a knife.

This is the head of a county, and he will kill as soon as he says so?

 For a time, there were obviously a large number of people in the county government, but they were suppressed.

This is exactly what Xinyou expected.

The county government can mobilize hundreds of troops. If Zheng Zhixian is not dealt with smoothly, they will be passive. Once Zheng Zhixian died, these people would be at a loss for a short time.

 At this time, either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind.

"The bandits are alive and dead, the confessions are written in black and white with pictures, and the identity of the governor of Hezhen is also evidenced by tokens." The young man on the horse was obviously delicate and frail, but his voice was particularly powerful. A pair of calm eyes slowly swept across the expressions. The officials expressed disbelief, "If you don't kneel down when you see the gold medal bestowed on you by the emperor, are you colluding with the dog official named Zheng, harming the people of Ling County, and intending to cause trouble?"

 The young man's questioning was sonorous and powerful, arousing the anger of the people.

These people are cowardly and easily aroused.

 They are afraid of officials, bandits, and **** corpses. But when he knew that the corpse in front of him was a bandit or a dog officer, he was no longer afraid.

It's not that I'm not afraid, it's that I don't care about being afraid in order to live a stable life in the future. “Dog officer!”

 “Well done!”

Facing the young man's questions and the people's scoldings, an official could not resist the psychological pressure. His knees softened and he knelt down in front of the gold medal.

His kneeling immediately broke a certain deadlock, and everyone knelt down. Even a few who hesitated had to kneel down with the crowd.

Seeing the government officials armed with guns and sticks kneeling down behind the officials, Xin You and He Qingxiao looked at each other and raised the corners of their lips slightly.

These officials recognized their identities in front of thousands of people, and the situation was brought under control.

 The gold medal in his hand was cold and hard, and the scene of Emperor Xingyuan forcing the gold medal flashed through his mind.

I have to admit that this prepared gold medal came in handy.

 She dismounted, walked step by step to the head with wide eyes, and asked deliberately: "Master He, how should we deal with this?"

He Qingxiao said expressionlessly: "After processing, hang it at the city gate. After Wuyun Village is destroyed, it will be sent to the capital."

 Destroy Wuyun Village?

When the people heard this, they started talking about it.

"As expected of a gentleman from the capital, he is going to save us from the fire and water."

 “Thank you, Mr. He, and thank you, Mr. Xin!”

The people's gratitude was deafening, but most of the officials looked embarrassed.

An official couldn't help but said: "Wuyun Village is located on Wuyun Mountain. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are hundreds of bandits..."

The county government can mobilize fewer people than the bandits. Is it possible to ask them to die?

He Qingxiao glanced at the officials who made the noise and said loudly: "It doesn't matter. He has sent a message to Ningshan Guards. As soon as three to five days, as late as seven or eight days, a large number of troops will arrive. Then we will all work together." Cooperate and eliminate the bandits."

Yang Xiancheng couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

The number of troops and time required to suppress bandits is a military secret. How can you say it casually in public?

“Yang Chen, the county magistrate of Xiaguanling County, has met Mr. Xin and Mr. He and invited them to come to the county government office to speak.”

Xin You and He Qingxiao nodded and followed Yang Xian Cheng to the county government office.

 She was followed closely by Qianfeng and Ping'an, and those Jinlin guards were responsible for settling the bandits and other matters.

Seeing the gruesome corpses being dragged away, the people gathered in front of the government office refused to disperse for a long time.

"Did you hear that? The adults from the capital said that they will bring a large number of troops to suppress the bandits in seven or eight days at most. By then we will be able to live in peace."

“Oh, it's such a pity for the Wu family. It would be great if the adults from the capital came earlier...”

 “Who says it's not, I'll be fine in the future.”

It was rare for the government officials not to drive away the people with a cold face. Some officials were secretly looking forward to suppressing the bandits, and many more officials were worried.

They won't risk their lives if they go to suppress bandits, right?

The layout of the county government office in Ling County is similar to that of other places. The main hall is where the magistrate's office is, and the county magistrate's government office is on one side. At this time, Zheng Zhixian's head was gone, and the group naturally entered the main hall to talk.
