Chapter 43 I will kill the people who others dare not kill
It rained all night, and Yu Huatian held the Shangfang sword and imperial edict and guarded the garrison gate for a night.
The house search in Qiantang City continued overnight.
The shrill cry, fighting, howling sounded throughout the night.
The people in Qiantang City thought that the Japanese pirates had invaded, and they all kept their doors and hid at home and dared not come out, just asking the Japanese pirates to come to their homes as well.
The people's doors are closed and the riots have been reduced, and the people from the West Factory can let go of their hands and fight.
When the sky turned white, boxes were already filled with boxes in front of Ye Jun. And less than one tenth of these were seen, which shows how much wealth these gentry had. These wealth were either the people's fat and ointment they had collected or the illegal income obtained from sea smuggling.
The people in the West Factory were so tired that they were sweating profusely. These martial arts masters were good at killing people, but they were really not good at raiding houses.
Fortunately, there are people from the Fuwei Escort Agency.
The Fuwei Escort Agency relies on escorts to make a living, and its technology of shipping and packing goods was first-class. It quickly packaged all the wealth obtained from the house search and transported them one by one.
Half of this money will be collected into Ye Jun's private warehouse, and the other half will be distributed to the Xichang Factory, entrusting the Lin family to recruit soldiers, build ships, guns, and establish a navy in Fujian.
"Sir, what should I do with these gentry? Or just kill them all!" The people from the West Factory fought all night, their eyes turned red, and they were all murderous.
"We represent the court, and murders must be tried according to the law. We will take these people to West Lake and notify the people of the whole city, and we will say that we have captured the Japanese pirates and those who colluded with the Japanese pirates, and we will be tried publicly!" Ye Jun waved his hand and made a decision.
The sky in the east is bright, and you can see that blood and rain are mixed together, flowing out from the courtyards everywhere, making the entire street dyed blood.
Every household is closed and everyone hides at home, not daring to show up.
Suddenly, there were sounds of gongs and drums coming from the street, mixed with these cheers: "Everyone, come out and see. The imperial court has sent people to the West Factory to capture all the Japanese pirates. The traitors who colluded with the Japanese pirates are now taken to West Lake to behead their heads publicly!"
When they heard the sound outside, the people hiding at home looked at each other and were confused.
These days, the Japanese pirates invaded Qiantang and the officers and soldiers were helpless. Why did the Japanese pirates be caught in one night?
However, the news outside should not be fake. Could it be that the officers and soldiers were fighting with the Japanese pirates last night?
At first, people didn't dare to come out, but after a few times, people finally believed it and cheered.
On the street, the blood had not yet washed away, and figures walked out of their homes and rushed towards West Lake.
"I heard that all the Japanese pirates were caught? When did our Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers become so powerful?"
"Yes, in the past, dozens of Japanese pirates could beat hundreds of us away. Even if we sent thousands of officers and soldiers, we couldn't catch the Japanese pirates. How did this happen this time?"
Some people were puzzled, and some people explained: "I heard that this time it was not our local officers and soldiers, but the emperor personally ordered that the person named Xichang was all martial arts masters, one by one, and they all rushed over the eaves and walls, killing the Japanese pirates crying and calling for their parents."
"Do you know why our officers and soldiers in the past never win the battle to encircle and suppress the Japanese pirates? I heard that some people informed the Japanese pirates. This time, the Western Factory specially skipped our local officers and soldiers and took advantage of the night without realizing their actions. Not only did they eliminate the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop, but they also captured the traitors who colluded with the Japanese pirates!"
"Damn, I said, how could a mere Japanese pirates run rampant in our Ming Dynasty? It turns out that there are traitors. Which bastard dares to be traitors?"
"I heard that they were all taken to the public trial of West Lake. Let's go and have a look!"
"Yes, go all! I'll take my wife and children to see!"
"Then I'll call my sister-in-law!"
...
At this time, the Golden Chai Building in West Lake had been requisitioned.
A group of martial arts masters held the Golden Chaikraft Tower heavily.
At the gate of the Jinchai Building, more than a thousand heads were piled into Jingguan. These heads and hair accessories were different from those of the Ming Dynasty. They could recognize them at a glance as the heads of the Japanese pirates. This was the heads of the Japanese pirates on Zhoushan Island, the Japanese pirates killed last night, and those pirates.
On the bank of West Lake, there were a row of prisoners kneeling. In addition, on the willow trees beside them, figures were hung in a row, and from time to time, they heard a few wails or angry screams. They struggled a few times occasionally, swaying in the wind like a bunch of bacon.
At this time, there were already many people watching in front of the Golden Chai Tower.
There was a lot of discussion among the crowd:
"Isn't that a wealthy businessman Wang Zhi? Xu Hai, who seemed to be a pawn shop next to him! They actually colluded with the Japanese pirates. No wonder their business is so good every time the Japanese pirates plunder them, especially when the pawn shop always has some treasures."
"What's this? Look at those people carefully. Those are from the Xie family in Yuyao!"
What?!
Sudden screams rang around.
Everyone was unbelievable. The Yuyao Xie family also colluded with the Japanese pirates. Isn't it possible? Some people didn't believe it very much. They walked closer and looked carefully. It turned out that they were from the Yuyao Xie family.
"Didn't Mr. Xie Qian be a high-ranking official in the court? How could they collude with the Japanese pirates?" Everyone was confused.
Someone even shouted: "The whole family of Xie is full of scholars, and he is loyal to the country. How could he collude with Japanese pirates? I don't believe it!"
"That's right, Mr. Xie is so respectful and noble, how could the Xie family be a traitor? It must be that you eunuchsmen who deliberately framed the Xie family and wanted to deal with Mr. Xie. They are despicable and shameless. Let's go and save the Xie family and cannot let these eunuchsmen succeed."
A group of people who looked like students rushed out, cursing and rushed towards the Xie family, wanting to save people.
These are all local students. In their eyes, Xie Qian is ranked as the third minister. He is so respectful that he is simply their idol. In the future, they will go to Xie Qian and perform the discipleship ceremony. How can they sit down and watch the Xie family be killed?
"Stop!" A figure appeared in front of everyone, and it was Zhu Wan.
Zhu Wan said: "Dear classmates, the Xie family colluded with Japanese pirates, and the evidence was conclusive, so they were definitely not wronged."
"Zhu Wan, it turns out to be you, you have become the lackey of the eunuch party!"
"That's right, Zhu Wan was taken away by the Jinyiwei that day. It must be because he was afraid of death and became a lackey of the fan. He framed Mr. Xie's family and beat him to death!" A group of students were provoked and surrounded Zhu Wan.
After all, Zhu Wan experienced the bloody battle last night. She had seen blood. She was not afraid of the danger. Instead, she angrily scolded: "What do you want to do? They said that the Xie family was wronged, what is the evidence? You don't read the evidence of the Xie family colluding with Japanese pirates before you, and you can't tell them, and they can't tell them, and they hit the court. What kind of sage books are you reading? How can you be worthy of the saint's words in the absence of right and wrong? Could it be that the reputation of the Xie family is more important than the saint's words? Is the Xie family more important than the laws of the court?"
However, this group of students was instigated and aroused their nerves. How could they listen to his explanation?
At this moment, a sword light burst into flames.
The sword energy swept over like a horse. With a "brush", it left a sword mark that was ten feet long and half a foot deep on the ground.
At the same time, a cold words rang out in everyone's ears: "The Xie family colluded with Japanese pirates and betrayed the national interests, and the evidence was conclusive. Anyone who helped the Xie family speak would be treated as a member of the party!"
The cold and squeaky sound made people shudder. At this time, the students discovered that there was a young man with a white face and no beard in front of them.
"You... who are you? We are all scholars and students of saints. We have fame and fortune. Even the prefects dare not arrest us casually. Do you dare to arrest us? You will be ruined tomorrow."
"The prefect dares not arrest you, I will arrest you, and I will arrest you, and the prefect dares not kill you, and I will kill you, I will kill you, and if you don't believe it, then go forward and try it." A feminine smile bloomed, and a cold voice was spitting out:
"You want to ask who I am? Xichang - Yuhuatian!"
