Many people were relieved by the treatment of Zhang Jiang. It seemed that the Marquis of Lianzhou didn't want to catch everyone in one place, and at least there was a little room for harmony.
In fact, there is no such thing as cats in this world. If you really want to take all the generals who have any involvement in the manufacturing situation or who have vacancies, then from Datong to Shanhaiguan to Liaodong, the border generals of the Ming Dynasty were arrested and chopped their heads at Caishikou and chopped them up.
Therefore, Liu Chengfeng's solution can only be to kill the evil ones and kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
With Zhang Jiang's precedent, the military officers in this tent seemed to have caught a life-saving straw and said one after another: "Marty, I will be guilty..."
Liu Chengfeng said lightly: "Don't be anxious, come one by one."
These words stopped these people who were eager to apologize, and the performance of these people made Zuo Qiuming's face worse. If Liu Chengfeng had a tough attitude and forced everyone to the corner, perhaps Zuo Qiuming would have some strength, but now in this way, everyone has a life-threatening life and apologizing, and Zuo Qiuming would be even more isolated and helpless.
Others may be able to escape and die, but Zuo Qiuming cannot. He is the chief evil. If he can forgive him, the emperor would not have come to this secret decree, let alone such a marquis of Lianzhou.
Zuo Qiuming glanced at Liu Chengfeng with turbid eyes. This man...first used thunder to kill people to establish his authority, which made everyone frightened. Then he took out an imperial edict. Before everyone could come back to his senses, he looked at the military and political power of Xuanfu. Now, fighting and killing Liu Fu makes people feel fear in his heart, but he is magnanimous and easily spared Zhang Jiang. He treats two people with two completely different ways. The intention is very obvious. Those who obediently confess their guilt candy and those who are not honest and have ulterior motives will be burial.
With two choices, smart people will naturally choose the former. At this time, almost everyone was convinced. Every word Liu Chengfeng said was unquestionable, and no one dared to underestimate him. Even his expression, a little bit of joy and anger, was pondered by others, and the majesty of the imperial envoy was completely established at this time.
"It's not unfair to lose to this person with a very clever method." Zuo Qiuming sighed in his heart.
"Zuo Qiuming!" Zuo Qiuming was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly, Liu Chengfeng's eyes had already fallen on him, staring at him with deep eyes, his tone was plain, but the three words he said were extraordinary.
Zuo Qiuming...Who is Zuo Qiuming? He is a dignified governor and a second-rank official of the court. Not to mention Liu Chengfeng, a marquis, even the boss of the cabinet would never call Zuo Qiuming's name directly. However, Liu Chengfeng shouted it out without hesitation at this time, but the meaning was different.
Zuo Qiuming's body trembled, sat upright, licked his shriveled lips without responding.
Liu Chengfeng sneered: "Zuo Qiuming, everyone volunteered to express their crimes. As a governor, don't you have anything to say?"
Zuo Qiuming put his hands on his knees and said lightly: "I am upright and read the sage..."
Liu Chengfeng did not give Zuo Qiuming the chance to set up a archway and interrupted: "If you say now, this marquis may be able to be lighter. If you say these useless things, don't blame me for not giving you a little face to the governor!"
Zuo Qiuming smiled contemptuously and said, "I have been an official for twenty-three years and have never been teased by children."
Liu Chengfeng laughed faintly and said, "You still don't want to say it? If you don't say it, then let me tell you for you. As the governor, you appointed private individuals, and the general Zhao Wuren and others, you are all generals with great military achievements. However, in the name of their stupidity and incompetence, you submitted a letter to the Ministry of War to abolish their official positions and appointed Wang Fen and others. Wang Fen stationed in Changping Fort as a guerrilla in five years ago. Watsat people went south. He could not reinforce the troops, so he left the duty and led his troops to retreat. In the tenth year of Hongzhi, you were recommended as general. However, after he took office, he contacted you, divided the spoils with the bureau, used shoddy firearms, arrows without arrows and other objects to serve as inferior products. Wang Fen has explained these clearly and recorded his confession. Also, this attack on the caravan is also the military order of your governor's yamen. You supported Wang Fen behind your back. Do you not recognize these?"
Liu Chengfeng's eyes became even colder, and he looked at Zuo Qiuming deeply, and continued: "In the 11th year of Hongzhi, the Minister of War wanted to check the number of people in the Xuanfu battalions and eliminate the vacancy of each battalion. However, the ones who ate the most vacancy were you and Wang Fen. The real number of troops reported to you was 135,600, but you and Wang Fen colluded with each other, and the real number reported was 176,000. Zuo Qiu Ming, you have a big appetite. It's okay. The Ministry of War wants to check, but you instructed Wang Fen to mutiny the several military camps in Datong.
, Slandering this is the anger and resentment caused by the officials of the Ministry of War in the Xuanfu, and even the three armies were dissatisfied. The battalions were already abdicated. If the Ministry of War continues to investigate thoroughly, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the Xuanfu. The final result is that the Ministry of War has to recall the officials investigated, and the court has to appease the Xuanfu. All of this is your good deed. Zuo Qiuming, now that the matter has been revealed, you are still pretending to be deaf and dumb. Do you really think that this marquis is a fool? I really think you can hide the truth and still be able to act as a mighty person in this Xuanfu?"
Zuo Qiuming's face suddenly became extremely pale, just as his clothes were torn apart by Liu Chengfeng, making him stand naked in front of everyone. This feeling made him feel at a loss. He had a blank face and said nothing.
Liu Chengfeng's tone became a little higher, and he said, "At this time, do you still want to deny it? The person who came, took it down and asked me to interrogate me all night. Tomorrow, I will confess."
After Liu Chengfeng finished speaking, his eyes turned to Eunuch Zhao again. Eunuch Zhao had completely collapsed. Liu Chengfeng said lightly: "This Eunuch Zhao is also taken down. Now, everyone obeys the orders and all troops return to the camp and are not allowed to move without any move. A soldier needs his seal from the marquis when he leaves the camp. If someone dares to act rashly, he will not be killed!"
After Liu Chengfeng said this, he said, "Where is Qian Fang?"
Qian Fang stood up with her head held high and said, "The last one will be there."
Qian Fang was once an old qualification in Xuanfu, so everyone in the shed naturally recognized him, but no one expected that Qian Fang was now soaring into the sky, and the imperial flying fish suit on her body was really jealous.
Liu Chengfeng looked up at Qian Fang and said, "Immediately block the four gates and take people to search the city. My marquis heard that there were some eight surnames in the Xuanfu in this city. These people have always colluded with Tatars and thorns, and their crimes are unforgivable. They took all their families and searched the house."
"Abide by the order!"
Liu Chengfeng seemed a little tired, stroked the desk and said, "That's all about today. At this time tomorrow, everyone will come to the city to see me. This marquis has other instructions on the changes in Xuanfu."
"yes."
……………………………………………………………………………………………………
The nine armies on the outskirts of the city retreated back to the camp like a tide. Liu Chengfeng's military order was quickly implemented. None of the officers and soldiers who entered the camp dared to step out of the gate, and were all waiting for news in Datong City.
In Datong City, the four gates of Datong were closed, and then, the students wearing flying fish uniforms began to appear. A few dozen days ago, the shops that reported the caravan were sealed one after another. Now, the Kaitai Trading Company was the first to seal them. After that, all the shops of the eight major surnames were besieged by iron barrels. The student army broke into the door and took people everywhere. For a moment, people in Datong City were panic.
However, this tense atmosphere did not last long. The "Flying Fish Suits" in the city were obviously targeting only the eight surnames, which had nothing to do with ordinary merchants and the people. Although teams of people could be seen stumbled in the snow under the urging of swords and guns on the street, the streets gradually returned to peace.
That night, Liu Chengfeng picked up his pen and quickly wrote the memorial, writing what happened today into the memorial, and ordered people to send it to the capital quickly. On the other hand, he asked the reporting caravan to leave the customs as soon as possible. This time, in order to deal with the people from Xuanfu, Liu Chengfeng delayed a lot of effort. Now it is urgent to Jubao Caravan to leave the customs as soon as possible. In a few days, the wind and snow will get heavier. If the heavens are not good, they will not know how much time they will waste.
After resting for a while, Liu Chengfeng finally felt a little energetic. It was late at night, and the snow was flying outside the window, and Liu Chengfeng relaxed his body and mind. At this time, he suddenly thought of Beijing. Is it snowing in the capital at this moment? How has the morning light been recently? I wonder if I will suffer from some wind and coldness. The emperor in the Forbidden City is afraid that he will not be able to sleep tonight. When the cold winter comes, the court is busy again.
He thought randomly, opened the window and let the snow float in. The wintersweet outside were budding in buds. Liu Chengfeng seemed to smell the fragrance of wintersweet. He smiled and said to himself in his heart that this was just his psychological effect. Where did the fragrance come from?
"Ahem... the Marquis hasn't been asleep yet?"
Li Dongdong's voice came from outside and continued: "The students couldn't sleep either. It was cold and the bed was always cold. It happened that the wintersweets were blooming today. I was about to come out to enjoy it. I just worked for Wang Laosan and asked him to warm up the warm wine and warm his body. Marquis, the students came in."
Li Dongdong and Liu Chengfeng lived in the east and west wing rooms in the backyard. They probably saw the lights on in Liu Chengfeng's house, so they came over to take a look. He was not a polite person. Before Liu Chengfeng could make a statement in the inner room, he pushed the door and came in.
Li Dongdong came in across the threshold, and there was a layer of snowflakes on the scarf on his head, swaying the snow on his body. He couldn't help but smile and said, "The student will ask Wang Laosan to bring the hot wine to the Marquis' room later. Let's have a few drinks."
