Chapter 969: Accounts frozen

"Liu Yuan, this doesn't mean anything, what matters is the silver, did the official bring the silver?"

Liu Yuan shook his head and said, "There is no silver." ”

"Then you still believe that he is a ghost?!" There was a commotion.

"Reasonable, unreasonable, unreasonable, illegal arrest, debt repayment!" Liu Yuan said word by word, "It's what he said." ”

These words made the noise drown.

"It's easy to say, without real money, everything is a fart!" However, this remark clearly did not resonate as much as before.

The people began to fall silent.

Liu Yuandao: "Neighbors, we just want to seek justice, get back our hard-earned money, houses and land, we don't want to rebel!" That night, the Qing army broke through the city, Liu Yuan did not dare to sleep all night, compared to corrupt officials and corrupt officials, the Tartars were more cruel, because they did not need a reason to kill...... At least now we can still petition the imperial court, at least now that we are together, the officers and soldiers have not yet waved their swords at us, but once the city is broken, I am afraid that it will be impossible for us to get together! Therefore, Liu Yuan hereby implores the neighbors to listen to Liu Yuan's advice, go and meet the official, and listen to what he has to say, even if the negotiation fails, then there is nothing to lose, right? Rather than inadvertently aiding the abuse and helping the Qing army, it is better to hear how the imperial court will deal with this case...... If we really want to repeat the tragedy of four years ago, we will become a sinner of the country! ”

"I, Liu Yuan, begged the neighbors!" Liu Yuanchang fell to the ground.

A voice rang out, "What if you go...... The official has ambushed the soldiers, what can we do if we are arrested? There are thousands of people here, who can take care of each other, and when we go to the street over there, there are only a few hundred of us, and we are not at the mercy of the officers and soldiers? ”

Liu Yuanzheng said: "Even if the negotiation fails, it will not cause harm." Liu Yuan vouched for his life, if there is really an accident, the neighbors will ask me Liu Yuan! ”

"That'...... So go for it? Someone hesitated.

Liu Yuandao: "This time he is not an ordinary official, he is under the command of the king of Huiji County, he has the same surname as the prince, and he is also surnamed Wu." Neighbors, he said, the sixteen words of reasonableness, unreasonable whipping, illegal arrest, and repayment of debts are what the prince meant. ”

Many people were moved, and they whispered.

The provinces under the jurisdiction of the Great General's Mansion in the south are said to be very rich, and maybe when the king of Jijun comes, he can really get his silver back.

"Cheng ...... Let's talk about it. Many people said in unison.

Liu Yuan was right, they were not rebelling, they were just forced to be in a hurry.

Regardless of smashing, looting, and burning, it is the emotional outburst of the weak in a moment.

However, after calming down in the past few days, they also felt fear in their hearts, and they were still a little ...... I can't bear it!

"Or, call more people, anyway, there are many people behind, go together, you can also strengthen your courage, right?"

This caused a burst of laughter, "Boss Qiao of Dog X, when you rushed to the street and smashed the rice shop of Wei Dahu a few days ago, didn't you see that you were timid?" ”

Boss Qiao scolded back with a red face: "Zheng Dazhui, when you rushed into Xu Yuanwai's house, when no one saw it, you attacked the Xu family's mother-in-law's **?" ”

And then there was another burst of laughter.

Liu Yuan saw that the scene was about to start to be uncontrollable again, and hurriedly said: "People can't be called anymore, we already have hundreds of people, how can we talk about more?" If you say a word to me, won't it become a catch-up? ”

So the crowd laughed and left the shed and headed for the other side of the street.

……。

Outside the Zhengyang Gate.

A Northern Expeditionary Army of 3,000 men arrived.

Although Wu Zheng is now in the military and political affairs of the General Administration, the Northern Expeditionary Army is not yet free to enter the capital.

Wu Zheng was temporarily transferred to take over the Ministry of State Security in Jiangyin.

The purpose of transferring this army was to make it easier to use, and at the same time, Wu Zheng couldn't trust the Beijing army.

Leading this team are the Qi brothers.

Arriving at the same time as them were Mo Zhinian, who was ordered to rise from Hangzhou, and more than a dozen shareholders of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.

But there is still one person in the team, Ma Shiying, who was dismissed from the Jiaxing prefect.

The two troops were temporarily stationed outside the city, and the group entered the city to meet Wu Zheng.

I didn't want to, but when I arrived at the palace, I didn't see Wu Zheng.

When the three parties arrived, Wu Zheng was nowhere to be seen, so he naturally wanted to ask.

Wu Zheng's guards had to tell Wu Zheng's whereabouts under Mo Zhi's questioning.

When Mo Zhinian and the others heard that Wu Zheng had only brought two people to the fish market street, they couldn't help but change their faces.

The son of a daughter, he can't sit down!

People with experience like Mo Zhi Nian and Ma Shiying immediately realized Wu Zheng's recklessness.

It's a place where the rioters gather, and if there is a bad one, won't the consequences be unimaginable?

So, the group turned around and went directly to the Taifu Mansion to see Qian Sule.

When Qian Sule heard that Wu Zhengwei went to Fish Market Street, his face also changed greatly, "Nonsense! There is no such thing as this...... Mo Lao, the old man went directly to the palace and asked His Highness to transfer the forbidden army ....... ”

Mo Zhinian frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's too late to ...... such a time." ”

Speaking of this, he pointed to the Qi brothers and said to Qian Sule: "The 3,000 people they led were transferred by the prince, and they are stationed outside the Zhengyang Gate at this time. ”

The residence of the ministers of the court and the central government is arranged according to the level of the official title, and the distance from the imperial city is arranged, so that if there is an incident, they can be immediately summoned to the palace.

Huang Daozhou and Qian Sule are both second-to-none ministers, and their homes are close.

Therefore, when Qian Sule heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "It's okay, the old man will go to Shoufu." ”

The reaction of these people was not unpleasant, but after all, they were human beings, not gods, and they only felt the danger, but they could not guess that the danger had already occurred at this time.

……。

When Wu Zheng arrived at the North Gate Bridge, it was already dusk.

It took a lot of time to listen to Liu Yuan's statement in the tavern, and to send Liu Yuan to gather the people.

When Wu Zheng stood at the door of the tavern and saw these hundreds of people, the sky was gradually getting dark.

The people were silent, they were waiting for Wu Zheng to speak.

"The facts have become very clear, the collusion between officials and businessmen, and the collusion of silver and money banks to loot people's property, real estate, and land property."

"But you must have heard that most of the officials and profiteers involved in the case have disappeared."

"This official came today to think of a compromise strategy and listen to your opinions."

"Regardless of whether you deposit or borrow money, the interest is limited to today, that is to say, the interest generated before today is retained, and you will not be less, and you will not be less than what you pay. From this day onwards all interest shall not accrue until the money owed to you and the money you owe are paid. ”

Wu Zheng's words caused a burst of whispering.

The people seemed to be a little afraid of Wu Zheng, and one of them was more daring, shouting: "When will the money owed to us be paid off?" Besides, the silver horn still holds the contract to occupy our house and land, and even the house is gone, and we have no way out but to get together. ”

This voice has attracted many echoes.
