Chapter 446: Lockdown of Fucheng, the Blamed Man Arrives.
"Bang bang bang!"
The gunshot rang out, and the two servants who rushed in front fell to the ground, and the rest of them slowed down. Ww'W. 』Lie Wen. CC
What is this?
Fang Xing's hand is just a piece of something similar to a carpenter's ruler, but this thing can kill people...
"Don't be afraid, rush up..."
The leader-like man was still shouting, but he quietly retreated into the middle of the crowd.
"What a shitty desperado!"
This pause was what Fang Xing wanted. He looked at the sergeants rushing from several directions, sneered and said, "Take them all!" Then he turned around and went inside.
Ma Shengcai was pinned to the ground by his servant, and when he saw Fang Xing coming in, he raised his head and shouted, "Fang Xing, you will have retribution! I, Ma Shengcai, swear that as long as I can escape, I will kill your whole family!"
"So you are the real outlaw!"
Regarding Ma Shengcai who still dared to speak harshly in a desperate situation, Fang Xing felt that this guy's business was really inferior.
"Kneel down and don't kill!"
"Raise the gun!"
"volley!"
"Bang bang bang bang!"
"ah……"
"For the last time, kneel down and don't kill!"
The battle outside was over, Lin Qun'an strode in, knelt down on one knee and said, "Uncle, eight people died, and the rest will be captured."
Fang Xing nodded, then walked out, took a breath of the smoky air, and asked, "Can the gates be controlled?"
"It's under control."
Lin Qun'an said it lightly, but Fang Xing knew that there would definitely be blood in the process.
"That's good."
Fang Xing slept for a long time in the afternoon, so he is in good spirits now.
When Ma Shengcai was brought out, he couldn't help blurting out when he saw two or three hundred pawns outside, "You still have reinforcements?"
Lin Qun'an said disdainfully: "I waited for the forced march all night and arrived outside the city at noon. I have been waiting under the orders of my uncle. Not long after my uncle entered the city, the city of Yangzhou was already under the control of my Jubaoshan Guard!"
Ma Shengcai said unwillingly: "Fang Xing, don't be complacent, it's too early to say who will win!"
Fang Xing asked those women, the three were kidnapped and sold to Yu's family, and after training, they were sold to Ma Shengcai.
"Uncle, some people were sent out by Ma Shengcai..."
Fang Xing thought of Cui Xiaochen, but before the imperial decree came, it was really difficult for him to do anything.
After sealing the capital city of Yangzhou, if Fang Xing takes Cui Xiaochen down again, it will be a challenge to the capacity of the civil service system.
"Uncle, prefect Cui is asking to see you."
I only thought of the civil servant's backlash, but I didn't expect Cui Xiaochen to come.
Cui Xiaochen put on airs, followed by several officials from Yangzhou Prefecture. After seeing the corpse on the ground, Cui Xiaochen's expression changed, and he asked, "Xing Hebo, dare to ask what Ma Shengcai committed?"
When Ma Shengcai, who was tied up by five flowers, saw Cui Xiaochen, he shouted excitedly: "Prefect Cui, save me..."
Cui Xiaochen pretended not to hear, and said with a straight face: "Uncle Xinghe, this is the capital city, even if there is something important, it should be reported to the lower officials. Uncle Xinghe's move is a bit over the top!"
Fang Xing looked at the cold night sky, and murmured: "Scholars are shameless, even green skin is scary!"
Cui Xiaochen and the others were so angry that their faces turned red, and when they were about to refute, Fang Xing said quietly: "Benbo came here on His Majesty's order, do you have any doubts?
No one dared to question, Fang Xing sneered in his heart: It turns out that these bastards are afraid of their own official positions, and what they are afraid of is the right to take life and death.
"Let's all go back.
Fang Xing waved his hands as if chasing flies, "All government officials are not allowed to go out, waiting for His Majesty's order."
Cui Xiaochen's lips moved a few times, but finally, after seeing those women who were weeping with joy, the ink in his stomach turned into melancholy.
"Uncle, where will we camp tonight?"
Lin Qun'an didn't intend to make any arrangements when he saw Cui Xiaochen leave, but now it's cold, if he sleeps outdoors, it's not fun to be sick.
Fang Xing pointed to his feet and said, "It's such a big place, and there is Yujiazhuang outside the city, it's enough for us to camp, but be careful at night, if someone sneaks up on you, resolutely fight back!"
Lin Qun'an took the order to leave, someone came to tell Fang Xing, and Yu Yan'er begged to see him.
And Zhu Di was also asked to see him at this time, and it was two people.
"Your Majesty, this is the memorial of Jubao Mountain Guard."
The eunuch reported.
"What about another copy?"
The memorial at this time is not urgent, it is molesting Zhu Di.
Of course no one dared to tease Zhu Di, so he picked up the memorial and read the other one first.
"...Xing and Bo Zong's troops looted the squires, but the officials failed to stop them, and they died..."
Zhu Di looked at the official position with his name on the back of the memorial, snorted coldly, and picked up Fang Xing's memorial expressionlessly.
"...More than 20 abducted women were found, and three of them were tortured and beaten. According to the abducted woman, the Yu family has been abducting and selling women for 23 years. Except for those who died of torture, most of the others were sold to merchants..."
"...I suspect that Yangzhou government officials are colluding, so I am going to block the four gates, waiting for His Majesty's order..."
"I don't dare to speak of worry, slander, or ridicule, but Yangzhou is a great government. Once the news is released, I expect that there will be impeachment in the court..."
Zhu Di put down the memorial, rubbed the corners of his eyes that were a little sore, and was about to call someone, but there was a report outside the door: "Your Majesty, there is a royal memorial."
The censor's memorial can be sent in at any time, Zhu Di nodded, and the eunuch went to pick it up.
Opening the memorial, Zhu Di shook his head after taking a look at it, and then closed the memorial.
"Order Hu Guang and Yang Shiqi to go to Yangzhou Mansion immediately, identify the criminals, and bring them all back."
Let Hu Guang and Yang Shiqi go?
Tut tut! The eunuch felt that Zhu Di's temperament became more and more elusive.
...
Fang Xing had a good night's sleep, and when he woke up, he received the news that Hu Guang and Yang Shiqi had arrived at the government office.
"Good thing."
Seeing Fang Xing so relaxed and at ease, Huang Zhong who rushed over worriedly said: "Uncle, Hu Guang and Yang Shiqi are probably here to find fault!"
Fang Xing saw Huang Zhong's wrinkled body, and said, "Bolu, you've been driving all night, go and rest quickly. As for Hu Guang, he's just here to take the blame."
Huang Zhong brought Yang Shiqi's family situation, which made Fang Xing feel at ease.
"Your Majesty is indeed Your Majesty!" Fang Xing sighed.
Huang Zhong was startled, and immediately understood the meaning of Fang Xing's words.
"Uncle, you mean... Your Majesty asked Hu Guang to clean up Yangzhou Mansion?"
Fang Xing nodded, and said without hesitation: "Your Majesty seems to be really kind to me. If you want me to do something like this to offend people, it will have to wait until the crown prince."
Huang Zhong didn't know much about these changes in the situation. He frowned and said, "I came all the way with Hu Guang. Looking at Hu Guang's body, I guess he is sick."
Fang Xing sighed: "I admire Hu Guang's ability, but he is stubborn and thinks that Fang is an outlier among literati. He is afraid that I will teach the emperor's grandson to be deviant, so he will not let him go!"
Huang Zhong rubbed his face and asked: "Uncle, shall we go to the government office now?"
Fang Xing took the steamed bun with pickles from Xin Laoqi, ate it in a few mouthfuls, praised the chewiness of the steamed bun and the purity of the pickled vegetables, and said leisurely, "What's the rush, Hu Guang can't tell the difference in just a few clicks." It's over, let's go check it out later."
Huang Zhong and Fang Xing had been in contact for a long time, so he knew that Fang Xing was putting pressure on Hu Guang.
Look, I can rest assured you, right? It's all up to you to take over, so go ahead and do it boldly!
But when Fang Xing went to the government office after eating and drinking enough, Hu Guang would have a headache.
