In front of the magistrate's office, Yang Anguo walked out with a murderous look on his face.
The difference from the past is that this time he is not surrounded by those subordinate officials and subordinates, but is alone.
Upon seeing this, the scholars gathered in front of the Yamen immediately swarmed up and surrounded Yang Anguo.
"Your Excellency, although Yuan Qin was born as a merchant, he still donated his money. You were indiscriminately thrown into prison by your Excellency, and now he died in prison for no apparent reason. The injustice is like snow!" "The people present are all scholars from Lingzhou, and all of them have achieved fame and fame. I am not very talented. Before Tianqi became an official ten years ago, he also served in the Metropolitan Procuratorate."
A leading old man stood out from the clamoring crowd. This man was dressed in Confucian robes, and his conversation was precise and pointed to the point.
"If the Palace Master cannot give a reasonable explanation, even if I agree, there are thousands of scholars in Lingzhou and Huanghuang Shilin will not agree!"
The old man's words were sharp and his momentum was even more aggressive. After he finished speaking, there was a burst of support and encouragement behind him.
Yang Anguo frowned, it turned out he was from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, no wonder he was so stubborn.
It may also be that the relationship between the old man and the thief is not superficial, but it doesn't matter. Looking at the crowd of people in front of him, how can Yang Anguo take even half a step back?
Now that his arrogance is so arrogant, if he is even the slightest bit weak, Yang Anguo will never be able to stay in Lingzhou!
"If I remember correctly, it's Brother Zheng, right? He gathered the scholars to attack the government and threatened the prefect to help the emperor."
"Even the Imperial Envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate would not dare to be so bold!"
Yang Anguo's voice suddenly rose and he shouted angrily at the old man standing in front of him.
"I have already reported to the imperial court about the smuggling of 100,000 shi of grain from Lingzhou. Spring plowing is about to start now, and the lean season will be around February and March. Anyone who dares to smuggle grain to hoard the goods will lose their head!" p>
"Don't blame me for not telling you that Yuan Qin committed suicide out of fear of crime. I didn't raid his residence and claim his relatives, which is an act of mercy outside the law. If you gather to cause trouble again, I will arrest you all, one by one."
Prison!"
Being fooled by Yang Anguo, hundreds of scholars and scholars all fell silent.
Young scholars who have never seen anything in the world are easily fooled, but the old man in front of him who was born in the Metropolitan Procuratorate is experienced.
He was just stunned for a moment and then sneered twice: "Your Majesty, you have such a strong tone! Even if you are a scholar, as long as you have a reputation, you cannot go to jail directly, let alone there are hundreds of people here!"
"Does the Palace Master want to make the entire Lingzhou Shilin an enemy?"
The last words of the old man are already a naked threat. He once served as an official in the Inspectorate, and now he has Lingzhou Shilin as his support. He is self-possessed and not afraid of Yang Anguo.
After all, even if a prefect dares to confront Shen Jin, a scholar in a state, the outcome will not be much better.
"Are you using Lingzhou Shilin to oppress me? Why, isn't Lingzhou the land of Dayu?!"
"I was appointed by the imperial court as the prefect of Lingzhou, and I am a Daitian herdsman!"
To deal with such a smelly and tough old guy, Yang Anguo directly responded with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Since you used Lingzhou Shilin to suppress me, then I have to use the banner of the emperor.
"Come here, drive away all these rioters!"
The two sentences forced the old boy in the lead to be speechless for a long time. Yang Anguo took advantage of the situation and waved his hand and shouted.
Whether Tang Hao's support from the capital was true or when it would arrive, he didn't care for the time being.
Entering this situation, Yang Anguo tried his best to buy Tang Hao as much time as possible.
This is not because he hates evil as much as he hates it and is selfless. That kind of person cannot survive in the officialdom.
It's just that after entering the game, there are only a handful of things that he can control, and Yang Anguo doesn't want to just sit back and wait for death.
"Rebellion, chaos? Hey, hey, hey! I'm a student of the state school!"
"It's really an insult to elegance, an insult to elegance!"
"The magistrate of Lingzhou beats and tortures the scholars, we will definitely impeach you to the court!"
As the yamen soldiers began to drive away, the Lingzhou scholars and Shenjin kept shouting and cursing, but this did not change anything.
Seeing the prefect's iron fist, the people on the street were all shocked, and the streets were filled with whispers.
Regardless of whether it is the prefect or the gentry, the sternness of the people is always the master. Now the prefect is going to fight with the gentry, including the gentry from all prefectures and counties in Lingzhou. This is the first time in history!
Originally, the people of Lingzhou were watching the excitement, but when they saw that the magistrate's office had been blocked and scolded for several days without responding, they naturally couldn't help but murmur in their hearts, feeling that the magistrate was weak and incompetent.
Until now.
"Did Mr. Tang feel satisfied with the drama these days?"
"Haha, I'm satisfied. Thanks to Mr. Yang, I can have a few days of rest."
Seeing Tang Hao laughing heartily and looking confident, Yang Anguo became suspicious. Is it true that there are noble people in the capital supporting him as he said?
Otherwise, judging from the current situation in Lingzhou, it is impossible for Tang Hao to sit still.
"Master Tang, I have blocked the bullet for you for several days. Those gentlemen hated me during the day. When are you going to take action?"
"Haha, no rush, no rush."
Tang Hao excused himself with a haha, and Yang Anguo slowly put away his smile: "Could it be that Mr. Tang hasn't found out the reason yet?"
"Master Yang is joking, I'm just waiting for someone."
"Waiting for someone? Who is it?"
Tang Hao pretended to be serious and said: "Count the days, it's almost here. When we get there, you will know that this famous man in the capital is now, haha!"
A famous person? A famous person that you also know?
Yang Anguo's thoughts were racing rapidly. Names flashed through his mind but he was still undecided. Finally, he felt his teeth itching when he looked at the mysterious Tang Hao.
Don't worry about who the person is, you don't even know where he is now, so I have to carry it with you until the person you mentioned is there?
Yang Anguo wanted to curse, or even punch Tang Hao twice, but after thinking about Tang Hao as a young and strong warrior, he put away this unrealistic idea.
"Okay, brother, I'll wait with you."
Seeing Yang Anguo say this with gritted teeth, Tang Hao felt a little nervous. Chen Ping, if you don't come here, Lord Lingzhou really can't stay any longer.
That night, the night was dark.
The city of Lingzhou was already silent. Occasionally, there were two barks of dogs and the watchman calling the time. But deep in an inconspicuous alley, a few figures suddenly flashed past.
The black cat in the corner was so frightened that its hair exploded, and it meowed and fled away.
"How's it going? Have you figured out what's going on?"
"Hmm!"
"Okay, don't reveal your identity before the young master comes. Let's start taking action tomorrow!"
Under the half-bright moon, a few figures in black were hidden in the darkness. After a brief exchange, they quickly disappeared.
The next morning in Lingzhou City, there were dozens of unfamiliar faces with strange accents.
However, this did not attract anyone's attention, including Tang Hao and Yang Anguo, as well as Pi Xiu, who had been in Lingzhou from the capital for many days.
"Boss, how come your Majesty hasn't done anything these days, only going to climb the mountains?"
"Yes, boss, those landowners have come to our place several times. If we don't take action, they may be found out by the government and punished!"
The noise from his subordinates made Dong Tao very irritated. After scolding him and finding an excuse to excuse it, Dong Tao also began to think about it.
This envoy said that he came from the capital, and he seemed to have some secrets with him. However, according to his observation, after arriving in Lingzhou, this person did not pay attention to the government at all. He even did not care about the life and death of the subordinates who were developing in Lingzhou, and only focused on going to the mountains.
Run.
The mountains in Lingzhou are densely covered with insects and snakes, and there is also a lot of miasma. Apart from natives, there are no ghosts in that ghost place!
Dong Tao couldn't help but become anxious. If he allowed the government to investigate him like this, how would he do anything in Lingzhou in the future?
He couldn't help complaining: "Mom, you can just walk away, but it hurts grandpa!
