The sounds of fighting outside and the clash of swords were getting closer and closer to Wei Haobi's yard.
Wei Haobi's face became increasingly ugly.
Gradually, officials from the government office came to him with their families and martial arts masters. After arriving, they all looked the same.
They all ran to Kui Haobi.
"Sir, what should we do?"
"Sir, who are these...?"
"..."
Everyone had panic written on their faces.
Wei Haobi just kept a sullen face and did not answer.
He suddenly realized that these capable subordinates who he usually relied on to resolve the predicament of Chengdu County were actually just like this.
They are no different from ordinary people.
He was originally confident about the situation in Chengdu County, but at this moment, he felt a lot of confusion. It seemed that the future might not be what he thought.
Of course, these are not as important as overcoming the current difficulties.
"Why panic!"
Wei Haobi finally spoke.
He shouted in a low voice: "Stop these gangsters for me! When the garrison arrives, they will naturally be defeated!"
He still has illusions.
Because he has no idea how powerful the masters outside are.
"Clang!"
The moment he finished speaking, the people in his yard were knocked away again.
However, it was no longer the panicked dignitaries who came running in from the outside.
He's a soldier.
The soldiers were retreating and accidentally knocked the door open.
Then, a group of soldiers were crowded in.
The expressions of the people in the hospital changed.
Looking at this posture, you don't have to think twice to know that the rogue gangs outside have already pressed over.
Everyone couldn't help but look towards Wei Haobi.
Wei Haobi's face became a little more solemn.
Seeing more and more soldiers being forced to retreat into the courtyard, he knew that the situation was not good. But he didn't want to leave.
If he leaves, it will bring disgrace to the court.
He would rather die here.
Thinking of this, Wei Haobi suddenly shouted: "Fight these rebels!"
He turned around and hurried into the room.
When he came out again, he actually had a sword in his hand.
But with his thin body, even if he is angry and carrying a sword, it is difficult for him to have much impact in terms of force.
All the dignitaries had different expressions.
They may not have the determination and courage like Wei Haobi.
After all, Wei Haobi was here under the emperor's order. But they were not.
Some of them, to put it bluntly, were just fawning over Wei Haobi because of their high salary. They were not core figures in Chengdu County before.
Wei Haobi swept his eyes across these people angrily and said, "You are so greedy for life and afraid of death?"
The dignitaries only had stern expressions on their faces, and no one showed any sign of coming forward with a sword.
"It's ridiculous! It's ridiculous!"
Wei Haobi suddenly raised his head and laughed.
It was probably only at this moment that he truly saw the true face of these people.
He was laughing at himself.
Laughing at myself for actually thinking that with the help of these people alone, I could achieve my goal of dismantling the power of local officials in Chengdu County.
Now that I think about it, it seems that my opponents in Chengdu County are the real men.
door.
As those soldiers were defeated one after another, the "rebellious parties" finally appeared in front of Wei Haobi and others.
Wei Haobi's eyes narrowed instantly, "Who are you?"
He did have some courage. Under such circumstances, he pushed aside the crowd and walked to the front.
He even walked in front of the retreating soldiers.
The "rebellious gangs" did not go on a killing spree in this courtyard.
After seeing the core figures like Wei Haobi, they quickly surrounded Wei Haobi and others.
Zhang Long and other guard martial artists were surprised by the number of rebels and did not dare to act rashly.
And they can naturally see that the strength of these rogue gangs is not low. Quite a few of them are even invisible to them.
In fact, I have some vague guesses about the identities of these rebellious gangs. I guess this matter may have something to do with Xu Jingnian, the former imperial master who was arrested some time ago.
Gao Shun, Lao He and others quickly walked to the yard.
As soon as he entered the door, Gao Shun's eyes swept over everyone. Finally, his eyes fell on the face of Wei Haobi who was glaring in front of him and holding a sword in his hand but could not stop trembling slightly.
A smile suddenly appeared on his face and he said: "Master Wei?"
Wei Haobi still asked the same question, "Who are you?"
Gao Shun did not hide his identity, "The commander of the former dynasty's confidential affairs, the deputy commander of the front department, Gao Shun."
When Wei Haobi and others heard Gao Shun's identity, their eyes couldn't help but sway slightly.
Because the name Gao Shun was once a thunderous presence.
The deputy commander of the Imperial Palace Department is only a temporary post. The Secret Affairs Department is the real power yamen, responsible for spying and other matters.
They even have the right to kill first and report later when something happens.
At first, Gao Shun was a person who was quite feared by all the officials, especially the nobles. Of course, he was also someone whom Emperor Qingyu trusted greatly.
Although Wei Haobi was recommended to become an official in the Academy of Sciences after the palace coup, and had no contact with officialdom in his early years, he had heard of the name Gao Shun.
"Do you want to rebel?"
After being silent for a while, he stared at Gao Shun and asked.
These words made Gao Shun's face instantly look ugly.
He suppressed his smile and said: "I have heard that Mr. Wei is a Confucian scholar who has read poetry and books. How come he can't even tell the difference between black and white? Liang Hanmin usurped the throne and ascended the throne. We are raising troops now to attack the rebels and bring order to the chaos!"
Wei Haobi opened his mouth, but was silent.
Maybe some young people don't know what happened back then, but they naturally still know it.
Half a moment.
"I don't want to comment on what happened back then."
Wei Haobi raised his hands in the direction of Kyoto and said: "I only know that the current Holy Emperor is working hard to govern and is a wise master. Our country, Chongqing, is also prosperous and the people are living and working in peace and contentment day by day. You guys... are always loyal, but it is just foolish loyalty.
Holding the banner of bringing order to chaos is actually disturbing the people and hurting wealth. If you can find your way back from the lost way, it is still not too late, and you can abandon your sword and surrender obediently. I beg the emperor to be extra merciful to you, and maybe you can avoid death."
"Hey!"
"This sharp-tongued nerd!"
"You damn fart!"
Before Gao Shun had time to reply, Wei Haobi's words had already ignited the tempers of these copycat masters.
They actually said they were disturbing people and damaging money.
Gao Shun was also a little confused by what Kui Haobi said.
Everyone has their own opinions and it is really difficult to communicate.
"Stop talking nonsense."
At this time, Lao He suddenly sniffed next to Gao Shun and said: "Boy Gao, arrest them all first. I'll let Mr. Lu explain these truths to them later. Just talk about the truth.
You really can't compare with that kid."
"..."
Gao Shun looked a little helpless.
Then he waved his hand and said, "Arrest them all! Anyone who dares to resist will be killed on the spot!"
