Chapter 233
About two hours later, Man Gui and others came with the 100 Jinyiwei lieutenant, Li Shi, the 200 Jinyiwei lieutenant army transferred from Jinan, as well as the 200 Jinyiwei lieutenant army soldiers from Jinan Prefecture, the 300 guards from Jinan Prefecture, and the 300 guards from Prince De's Mansion, and the 300 guards from Prince De's Mansion, the tens of thousands of people who had just gathered here were long gone, and the bodies of the killed White Lotus Sect disappeared. Only twenty Jinyiwei lieutenant and Li Shi were seen lying all over the ground.
Yang Guodong, the Jinan Metropolitan Police, sighed: "General Man Gui, your Jinyiwei comes to arrest people, why don't you wait for us to come? Otherwise, these brothers would not die in vain."
"Oh, it's all because we were one step late. It's better to bury these brothers of the Jinyiwei." Xu Congzhi lamented. Although the death of a group of Jinyiwei was a favorite thing for civil servants, the White Lotus Sect rebellion appeared on his territory and killed twenty Jinyiwei. This is a big deal. If it is not done well, it is not the problem that his black hat can be kept, but the problem of whether his head can still be kept on his neck.
After watching the Jinyiwei carry the body away, Xu Congzhi asked again: "General Man Gui, have you found the thief's nest? If you find it, I will immediately order the troops to be dispatched to encircle and suppress it!"
Man Gui replied: "We learned that there was a gathering of the Demon Cult, and we came to arrest people and wanted to catch a few live agents for interrogation. Unexpectedly, there were many people in the Demon Cult, and there were tens of thousands of bewitched people. Our brothers were defeated. Not only did we fail to catch people, but we lost twenty brothers. It was all because Mo Jiang underestimated the enemy! Please rest assured that Xu Fu Zun, the general will definitely find out the matter!"
"I will inform us immediately of the news and the Shandong Provincial Government Office! We will immediately dispatch troops to encircle and suppress the enemy!" Xu Congzhi stroked his beard, nodded slightly, and then turned his head and shouted: "Retreat the army and return to Jinan!"
After Xu Congzhi and the others left, Man Gui said to Huang Degong: "Although these twenty people were death row prisoners pulled out of the prison, they were considered to have made meritorious service and buried them with great success."
In fact, the twenty Jinyiwei lieutenants and Li Shi who were killed just now were not real Jinyiwei people, but Man Gui proposed to the death row prisoner from the prison according to Gao Shixin's request, and told them to give them a chance to make meritorious service. Then he changed them into the Jinyiwei lieutenants and Li Shi's military uniforms and asked them to arrest the White Lotus Sect, but they were all killed.
Anyway, it was the Jinyiwei who was faked by the death row prisoner, and Man Gui didn't feel sorry for it. He did this just to make a bitter plan so that Gao Shixin could get into the White Lotus Sect and meet Xu Hongru and then solve the case of Xu Hongru's rebellion.
Shandong Governor Zhao Yan had already learned about the murder of the Jinyiwei and was furious: "I didn't expect that there was no war in Shandong for many years, and the country was prosperous and the people were safe, but such a major case of treason was committed!" Xu Congzhi said: "Zhao Futai, I heard from the people of the Jinyiwei that he seemed to be confident and would definitely be able to catch the bandit leader Xu Hongru!"
"It is your credit to you and me that you can destroy the cult bandits! If the matter is serious, you and I will lose your head by killing twenty Jinyiwei!" Zhao Yan snorted.
Except for a few people such as Gao Shixin and Man Gui, no one knew that the death row was the death row prisoner, not the real Jinyiwei. A group of civil servants in Shandong had all been killed by Jinyiwei and were scared out of fear. But they never expected that something bigger would scare a large number of officials and almost died on the spot.
Governor Laideng Yuan Keli ordered the Yizhou Guard General Yang Zhaoji to lead his army to Jinan, waiting for the dispatch of Shandong Governor Zhao Yan, to prepare to destroy the riots.
At the same time, officials from Shandong, Laideng Governor's Office, the Governor's Office, Jinan Prefecture, Dewang's Office and other officials reported to report that there was about to be a riot in Shandong, and the court was hoping to dispatch troops to reinforce.
After receiving the report from Shandong, the little carpenter immediately issued an order to order the Liaoyang Xinzhen, which was temporarily stationed in Tianjin, which had not yet been to Liaodong, to be transferred to Shandong immediately. At the same time, Zhang Yong was sent as the military supervisor and personally led 500 elite factory guards to rush to Shandong with Liaoyang Xinzhen.
Since Gao Shixin won the victory from outside the pass and returned to Beijing to offer prisoners, He Shixian and You Shigong, as well as the Qi family army and Bai Gan soldiers have all returned to Liaodong. However, Liaoyang Xinzhen has temporarily stayed in Tianjin for a while, waiting to return to Liaodong by boat. At this time, he received the incident of Shandong monster thieves causing chaos, and the little carpenter happened to send Gao Shixin's team to Shandong to suppress the monster thieves.
"Wei Daban, your nephew is really my lucky star! I didn't expect that Gao Qing was sent to Shandong to purchase wood, but accidentally discovered the thief who was causing trouble! Fortunately, the thief was not in a state of chaos! If it weren't for Gao Qing, once millions of thieves were in chaos, my Ming Dynasty would be devastated, and countless soldiers, civilians and people died!" The little carpenter said to Wei Zhongxian with a smile.
"Lucky by luck!" Wei Zhongxian hurriedly thanked, "I'm just lucky. I can break the demon thief when I go to buy wood. This is to rely on the Emperor Hongfu!"
The little carpenter smiled and said, "It's still my own people who are reliable! Wei Daban, your family is my loyal and kind-hearted!"
"The emperor is as kind as a mountain to me. My family is willing to die for the emperor!" Wei Zhongxian knelt down and thanked me.
"Wei Daban, get up," the little carpenter's face showed another worry, "Gao Aiqing went deep into the tiger's den alone, and I don't know what's going on now? I'm really worried about him."
"Please rest assured, my nephew is extremely smart and has great martial arts skills, so there will be no problem!"
At this time, Gao Shixin had already followed Xu Daoqing to Juye County and followed a group of White Lotus Sect's disciples to a village outside Juye County.
"Is this the branch of the White Lotus Sect?" Looking at the small village that was so ordinary that it was, Gao Shixin felt very unbelievable. This village was an ordinary small village on the North China Plain. A river flowed through the entrance of the village. Village girls and women were washing clothes and vegetables by the river at the entrance of the village. The villagers worked in the farmland. The houses in the small village looked dilapidated, most of which were thatched huts and had several brick and tile houses. It is said that they were from a village genius in the village.
This style is different from what you see on TV! Gao Shixin said in his heart that the ancient costume martial arts films I have watched before, and the gang branch on TV, either in a luxurious courtyard in the city, or in an elegant Taoist temple, temple or a magnificent villa in the mountains. Unexpectedly, the branch of the White Lotus Sect is in a village that is as ordinary as it is.
In fact, Gao Shixin was wrong. When Xu Hongru and Wang Haoxian were preaching missions, they did not want to preach secretly as performed in TV series. In fact, as a branch of the White Lotus Sect, the Wenxiang Sect was semi-public. The county magistrates knew these things. To be honest, these missionaries were making money. While accumulating wealth, they also made friends with local gentry and yamen officials to give them some care. Just like Wang Sen made a lot of money by cheating and cheating back then, a large part of them were given to local officials and local gentry.
And those officials and gentry were also happy to get benefits. As long as they did not rebel, they would have nothing to worry about.
In fact, the Wenxiang Sect has certain connections in the same palace. The queen of Wanli, Sister Wang Xi, is also from the Wang family of Shifokou, and Wang Sen and Wang Haoxian are actually all distant relatives of Queen Wang.
Of course, once the cult rebelled, the officials and gentry were the first unlucky guys, either killed by mobs or beheaded by the court.
If it wasn't semi-public, how could it be preached? Just like in Yuncheng, Wang Haoxian publicly used various "magics" to attract believers and also made a lot of money. All of these money was provided for the people of the county government and local gentry, so those civil servants and gentry turned a blind eye to the missionary matters.
Only when the "Embroidered Uniform Guard was killed" did the local officials become nervous.
