Going to the county government office was equally lively.
Lu Deye and the others yelled all the way and were taken to the county government hall, but they couldn't help but be stunned.
No wonder no one was watching at the county government office just now.
All the yamen servants in the emotional yamen were looked down upon by the Chaling Army.
There were more than ten government officials squatting in the court hall, surrounded by Chaling troops.
The Chaling army divided into two groups.
Only the chief clerk, Huang Xingchang, stood nearby, looking at a loss.
Seeing Lu Liang coming back with this large group of people, his eyes changed slightly, and he immediately rushed to greet him, "Lord County Magistrate, what on earth is going on here?"
The Chaling Army just broke into the county government office and started arresting the government officials. He couldn't even stop shouting.
At this moment, big gentry such as Lu Deye were also brought here.
Lu Liang looked a little ugly and said: "These guys dare to ignore this county! This county will punish their crimes today!"
The commander of the Chaling Army walked up to Han Feihong and said, "General, all the government officials in the county government have been captured."
"Um."
Han Feihong just nodded and chuckled.
Lu Liang, Lu Fang actually dared to make such a big fuss, which really surprised him.
He is a somewhat reckless person, and if Lu Liang is cautious, he may not be willing to cooperate. Such openness and cooperation, on the contrary, coincide with his wishes.
Yu Yao winked at Huang Xingchang repeatedly.
Huang Xingchang frowned slightly, having some concerns in his mind, and asked Lu Liang: "What about Master Lu and the others..."
Lu Liang said: "They secretly colluded with the bandits, and this county is going to hold them accountable."
After saying that, he went to his seat and sat down.
"Crack!"
Jingtangmu clapped his hands and pointed at Yu Yi, "Take Yu Yi and these unworthy guys down first and keep them under strict guard! Wait for their punishment!"
Han Feihong raised his neck at Nashi Chang.
"Put it down!"
Shi Chang waved his hand.
A dozen Chaling troops escorted the government servants and Yu Meng out of the court.
"You are abusing lynching!"
"I want to sue you!"
"I want to sue you!"
After Yu Yi was escorted out, he kept shouting.
It's just that everyone in the court can't protect themselves, so no one cares about him.
"Crack!"
Luliang Jingtangmu slapped him again and said to Lu Deye: "Lu Deye, do you think you are guilty?"
Lu Deye raised his neck and said nonchalantly, "Lord County Magistrate, you said we colluded with bandits, do you have any evidence?"
"evidence?"
Lu Liang said: "You instigated the people to go to the Wanfu Inn to cause trouble, and then incited the people to gather around the county government office! You forced the county to drive away the officers and soldiers of the Chaling Army. This is the evidence!"
"hehe."
Lu Deye chuckled, his eyes filled with contempt, "Your Majesty, the magistrate, won't just rely on his words to decide the case, right? You said it was us who instigated it, but where is the evidence?"
"that is!"
A wealthy gentleman said: "You should find someone to confront you!"
They didn't pay much attention to Lu Liang.
Which of those county magistrates in the past were not polite to them?
"The county will naturally arrest them and confront you."
Lu Liang said solemnly, then waved his hand, "Take them down first! Wait until the county captures those people before interrogating them!"
"Without proof or evidence, your magistrate has no right to detain us," Lu Deye said.
However, Han Feihong would not pay attention to him.
Wave your hands.
The Chaling sergeant then led them out again.
The yelling continued.
Even Lu Fang received several waves of hatred points.
The courtroom is clean.
"Your Majesty the County Magistrate."
The chief bookkeeper Huang Xingchang, who had been silent beside him, walked up to Lu Liang at this time and said: "Your Excellency, County Magistrate, is this a little too hasty? If we detain all the Lu family masters without evidence, what will happen?
It could cause chaos in You County. It could even... cause a civil uprising..."
Lu Liang looked at him meaningfully, "If anything happens, this county will take care of it. Mr. Huang, you don't have to worry."
"But!"
Huang Xingchang said anxiously: "If this continues, our You County will be in chaos from top to bottom! How can we manage this? How can we suppress bandits?"
Lu Liang raised his eyebrows, "I don't believe it in this county. Without anyone, this You County can be turned upside down. No matter what, You County is still the You County under the rule of the Great Yu Dynasty!"
Huang Xingchang's expression changed and he stopped talking.
He knew it was going to be a big deal this time.
Lu Liang made it clear that he wanted to kill the fish and defeat the net!
If he continues talking, he might even get involved.
At the moment, he pretended to sigh, "Well... in that case, it's up to you, the county magistrate, and I'll go down and handle official business first."
Lu Liang only nodded.
Huang Xingchang walked out.
Han Feihong stepped forward and said, "Just let this guy go?"
Lu Liang said: "It doesn't matter. Regardless of whether we keep him or not, there will be people in You County who will stand up and cause trouble. When the time comes, our troops will come to cover up the water and the earth."
Han Feihong was noncommittal and just said: "In this case, do all the brothers under my command have to stay in the county government?"
Lu Liang nodded and smiled bitterly: "General Han is the only one I can rely on now."
Han Feihong smiled softly and changed the subject, "Where should these people be imprisoned?"
Even if Lu Liang didn't say it, he knew this. But Lu Liang said it frankly, which made him feel more favorable to Lu Liang.
At least, Lu Liang was willing to trust him. Although he was forced to do so.
Lu Liang said: "Just lock him up in the vacant room of the county government office."
"Keep it closed?"
Han Feihong said again.
Lu Liang shook his head, walked down from his seat, and said: "How long we will be detained depends on when General Han will help us wipe out the bandits."
His eyes were full of sincerity.
Han Feihong was a little stunned, then frowned and said: "What do you mean, Magistrate Lu, do you want to suppress the bandits now?"
Lu Fang stepped forward at this moment and chuckled, "Originally I wanted to do it with Xu Xu, but Lu Deye and his gang are dishonest. If we want to suppress the bandits, the wealthy gentry and officials in Youxian County must not be able to count on them. General Han,
What we want now is to cut through the knot with a sharp knife and wipe out the bandits as quickly as possible. I wonder, do you have the courage?"
This is his plan.
Cut the mess with a sharp knife.
No matter whether we take out people like Lu Deye first or wipe out the bandits outside first, it is still a victory.
Han Feihong was a little hesitant, looked at Lu Fang and said: "We only have two hundred sergeants, and we have to watch the county government and suppress bandits... I'm afraid we don't have enough troops, right?"
"As long as there are some gains, that's all."
Lu Fangdao: "Lu Deye and his gang do not want to suppress the bandits, but the people of You County still hope to suppress the bandits. As long as we can let them see our determination and strength in suppressing bandits, I think they will be willing to support us in suppressing bandits."
Public opinion is the greatest power. Once public opinion favors us, people like Lu Deye will no longer have anything to worry about."
Han Feihong frowned again and said: "But now we don't even know the truth about the bandits, who are we going to suppress?"
