However, this system was not implemented for a long time. Within a few years, the Tu Tu Temple was just used to "sacrifice the land." For Xie Erren, it was a ready-made vacant house, and the conditions were much better than those in Dalao.
The opposite door of the prison is a preferential treatment, but not too excessive.
After hearing this, Zhao Toyota felt it was inappropriate and immediately said: "Chief! This is not appropriate. This woman intends to assassinate the elders. According to the law, it is a death penalty. Even if you give her kindness outside the law, you should give her a fair and clear explanation. She should be sent back."
Guangzhou should hand it over to the South China Military Justice Department for trial and disposal."
Xie Erren was a little unhappy: "Where can I find the time to send her to Guangzhou now? Just keep her in the Tutu Temple first."
Zhao Fangdang opened his mouth and wanted to say that even if he did, he could be sent to the prisoner team for custody, but when he saw Xie Erren's face looking bad, he stopped saying anything.
The yamen servants are the most clever. The cell leader already "understood" the "chief"'s thoughts and immediately shouted: "Sister, you still haven't kowtowed to thank me for your kindness!"
Cai Lan was still confused, but Xie Erren had already stood up, his face slightly warm. He felt that the people around him had seen through his thoughts - he did not want to leave a "lecherous" impression on the natives, so he said: "I still have something to do.
Even though he has changed places, he is still a prisoner and must be strictly guarded - and not mistreated."
After saying that, he hurriedly took the people away. Knowing that the master was interested in this female prisoner, the prisoners immediately changed their faces. The prisoners helped Cai Lan up with smiles on their faces, and said a few more congratulations to the girl.
With the kind words of "Escape from the Sea of Suffering", I respectfully said that Cai Lan was sent away.
The master's words caused the servant to run away and break his leg. The inmates immediately started to take care of things. In just over half an hour, Cai Lan was transformed from a "bastard" waiting to die on death row to a "girl Cai". The cell leader secretly thought
Fortunately, fortunately, the master arrived in time! Otherwise, at night, this woman would have been raped by the prisoners, and it would be difficult to explain it to her!
While the cell leader was in charge of preparing beds and bedding in the Tutu Temple, he also asked people to find the county's official mediator - this official mediator was half a female prisoner, and she would be responsible for all matters involving female prisoners -
He gave her a pack of stick sore medicine and asked her to apply it on Cai Lan.
"The Australian master has taken a liking to this girl, so you have to be careful and serve her," the cell leader said with concern.
After Cai Lan was taken into prison, she was first given a "killing stick" and then chained to a urine bucket, with shackles on her hands and feet. She was from a well-off family. She had never experienced such suffering.
After all the torture, she was already exhausted. She asked herself whether her plot to assassinate the high-ranking official would be successful, and she would definitely die. Now, instead of pursuing the case, the high-ranking official moved her out of the prison and gave her preferential treatment, just like in a dream. The time of confusion was gone.
Square inch.
"rise……"
With a shout from the head, the eight pole bearers worked together to lift the coffin in the hall. Several monks and Taoist priests also yawned, picked up the guys and started to disperse. Several Qiuchan family members came to help.
My relatives on my mother's side also began to busy cleaning up the mess.
Because of the war, Qiuchan's funeral was over only for the first seven days. Because he was originally from Teng County and was young, there was no auspicious place in the local area. During the war, it was impossible to ask a Feng Shui master to choose a place, so it could only be done temporarily.
Store it in the temple. When the road is peaceful, the coffin will be returned to the hometown for burial.
Most of the visitors who came to mourn were local relatives and friends - it was not safe to go to the city from the countryside these days. A distant relative of Qiu Chan's family came to the city to mourn, but was attacked by bandits not far from the city.
All his clothes were stripped off, and he came to the door with only a pair of underwear. According to him, he knelt down and begged, and he was a guest in mourning. It was ominous to kill him, so the bandits did not take his life.
The relatives and friends who came to express their condolences kowtowed, burned incense, and at least sat down to drink a few sips of tea and chat with Hao Ran, who had the power to act as a "knowledge guest" - no one knew this distant cousin of Qiu Chan's husband.
However, Qiuchan's husband's family is also a wealthy family in Teng County. They have many relatives, so it doesn't matter if they don't know each other. What's more, this "cousin" is a returnee from a distant trip. He is well-informed and can talk. Everyone is willing to talk to him.
He chatted for a few words.
Relatives and friends all say that the world is really bad, so naturally some people want to secretly scold the thief a few times - it is said that if the thief had not come to Wuzhou, Wuzhou would not have suffered a military disaster, and Qiu Chan's husband would not have died.
, let alone let relatives in the countryside suffer the misfortune of being stripped of their clothes.
When he said this, it inevitably aroused some discussion. Most of Qiu Chan's natal relatives are natives of Wuzhou, and they are engaged in business and farming. They are basically middle-class families with a small income. This time, Xiong Wencan went to war.
There was a huge chaos before leaving, which caused many people to destroy their homes and go bankrupt. Even if their lives and finances were safe, those days of fear and trembling were not what humans should live.
"Well, the Australians are using the banner of vilifying the people and saying that they are 'working for the welfare of the people'. When they enter this city of Wuzhou, they first ask for a 'reasonable burden'. As long as it is a shop, they have to pay for it."
!The aftermath bureau is now forcing all shops to open - there is not even a ghost on the street in broad daylight, who will sell the goods to the shop?"
"Even the beggars are arrested - even if they are arrested, the business will not be opened and they will have to give alms!"
"It's hard to deal with the aftermath of this situation!" A middle-aged man sighed, "The one on the left requires everyone to share the reasonable burden, and the one on the right strengthens public security and asks each family to provide strong men... There is no need to build a pontoon bridge.
——Building bridges is of course a good thing, but this matter requires our money and efforts."
"In the days after the 'Liberation', not a single ship of goods from Guangxi has come down! The food can only go out but not in - it is said to be shipped from Guangzhou, but so far I haven't seen a ship of rice! On the contrary, every shop has stalls
Supplying rice to the military!" This is a relative who opened the rice shop. "We have also issued a price limit order and are not allowed to increase the price! Okay, we just have to rob it!"
"The Governor Xiong of the Ming Dynasty asked us to supply military rice. When he came to Australia to relieve the chief minister, he also asked us to supply military rice... After all, the common people are nothing but fish and meat!"
"They said they want us to go out to traffic in goods and 'revitalize the economy'... This old man is really different from the world. Nowadays, there is a war and chaos: bandits are making trouble when leaving the city. Walking along the river: Guangxi is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and their goods cannot come.
, our freight cannot go through. If we want to go downstream, I have heard of the uprising in Yaotong these days, and even the boatmen dare not go without the escort of Australian warships. Going out to sell goods is really asking for death!"
Yi Haoran agreed while listening to the guests' comments. He didn't go out much these days, and the time was not long. However, he saw with his own eyes that the Australians were extremely efficient in doing things. It only took a few days to collect the bodies, clean up the ruins, and provide relief.
Refugees, repairing the city wall... have started one by one. There are no beggars, no homeless people, and no corpses on the street. The order on the street has returned to normal. Although the shops are empty, there is no ghost.
"That's an exaggeration. At least there is usually business involving people's livelihood. Even the security in the suburbs does not seem to be so bad: there are already farmers selling vegetables on the streets.
By the standards of the Ming Dynasty, Mr. Xie can be regarded as a "capable official" among local officials.
Yi Haoran was extremely disgusted with the Kun thief, but he had to admit that the Kun thief did have a good way of governing.
Yi Haoran was hiding in Qiu Chan's house. He had no long-term plans. He just wanted to escape the arrest of the thief. When the situation calmed down a bit and the road was clear, he immediately set off to the west. Master Xiong was probably there.
It can't be done - the emperor will never forgive the crime of losing Guangdong. But as long as he is not under the rule of the thief Kun, no matter what, he still has a chance.
However, these people's careless conversations now allowed him to see an opportunity that he could take advantage of.
In the past few days, he probably knew that the Australians were unable to capture the entire territory of Wuzhou due to the Yaodong rebellion. Not only that, the army had also retreated from Wuzhou, leaving only a small number of troops. Therefore, several counties leading to Guangxi were closed.
It was not taken down. The government troops are still stationed in Teng County, and it is said that Xiong Wencan is also there.
It was a long journey from Guangxi to the capital, and it took at least one or two months for the emperor to deliver the official document from receiving the report of the defeat to the time he issued the order to arrest and punish Xiong Wencan. During this time, Xiong Wencan was still the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.
From the perspective of saving himself, Xiong Wencan will definitely plan a counterattack carefully - as long as he understands the situation in the city and contacts Governor Xiong in time, the officers and soldiers still have a chance!
Now the troops in Wuzhou city are empty, the people's hearts are unstable, and the Yao people are causing chaos behind the Kun thieves, which is a great opportunity for counterattack. Moreover, Lord Xiong is eager to establish atonement at this time, so he will not be so hesitant in his strategy.
As long as a part of the government officials and people can be encouraged to "come back anyway" in the city, seize a city gate, and lead the officers and soldiers to rush into the city. With the few men and horses of the Kun thieves, no matter how powerful they are, they can only withdraw from the city first. If they can be captured or killed
It would be better to kill the real Kun and solve the elders.
Wuzhou is an important gateway to Guangdong and Guangxi. If the army recaptures Wuzhou in one fell swoop, the bandits will have no foothold in this area and can only retreat to Fengchuan County along the east side of the Xijiang River. They will be trapped in a melee with the Yao people - this
Once the Yao Rebellion breaks out, it will not subside for three to five years. As time goes by, the situation may change! He has made extraordinary achievements!
Thinking of this, Yi Haoran couldn't help but feel hot all over. He wished he could go to the streets immediately to collect all kinds of information about the Kun thief, and contact comrades from all parties to raise the flag of righteousness.
"Mr. Hao, your face is flushed. Are you overworked these days?"
Yi Haoran was startled, and quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and concealed it: "I really haven't slept well these days." He deliberately sighed again, "I think I have been traveling abroad for many years, and I originally wanted to go back to my hometown to live a stable life for a few days, but never
To think that it would be such a chaotic situation!"
"Sir, what you are saying is that in the past few years, there has been no peace in the world!" Some people also had the same emotion, "The Ming Dynasty is in danger!"
