The heavens start with letting the bullets fly

Chapter 502 What is Wang Fa?This is Wang Fa!

On the surface, it seems that the Cao Gang does not want to be too deeply involved by the White Lotus Sect, lest there will be no eggs under the nest in the future.

But no one knows whether the Cao Gang wants to fight among themselves or whether they want to swallow up the White Lotus Sect's industry.

Of course, the White Lotus Sect must be punished, but the Cao Gang cannot be allowed to develop.

But if they want to make money, they can take the opportunity to promote and establish their own economic power.

Not only to destroy the White Lotus Sect, but also to control the Cao Gang.

Only in this way can the world be peaceful.

At this time, Liu Changan continued: "After the White Lotus Sect came to Yangzhou, no officials dared to touch them. Many military generals were crushed by them. They were either embarrassed or unable to hold their heads up. They have become big, and now they are on the verge of overthrowing, but Yangzhou is singing and dancing, no one has noticed this, even Jinyiwei and Longjianwei don't know, it is really speechless."

"Then, after Chief Liu handed over the list of the White Lotus Sect, what request does he have?" Chen Zhao asked.

"I heard that the Zhao family still has [-]% of their net worth Yanyin that has not been distributed yet. Liu has the cheek to want to get this batch of Yanyin so that I can go back to the Cao Gang to appease his subordinates." Liu Changan said solemnly.

"You are quite well informed." Chen Zhao nodded: "Ever since I learned that Gang Leader Liu came to Yangzhou five months ago, I have held this salt guide in my hand. Whether it is the Zhen family or other families, everyone wants this. I rejected it, because I knew that Chief Liu would definitely give me a satisfactory condition."

"So, I promise you!"

Chen Zhao said slowly.

Liu Changan was shocked.

He thought he was hiding in the dark, but he didn't expect his every move to be noticed by others.

He also understands that if Chen Zhao is not satisfied with the conditions he handed over today, he will never get this offer no matter what.

So after bidding farewell to Chen Zhao, he arranged for his manpower and left Yangzhou quietly.

When Chen Zhao returned to the mansion and changed his clothes, he called Zhang Heqing and Han Xiaozhong over, and said with a smile, "The two of you have been talking about wasting years and years, and there is no merit to be established. Now that the great contribution has come, it depends on whether the two brothers dare Dare!"

……

late at night.

"Master, Lin Gouguan and Chen Xiaogou are now controlling the Lianghuai salt industry more and more strictly. It is becoming more and more difficult for brothers to produce salt, but the leader still wants us to gather in Yangzhou. Why?"

"Why, of course they are gathering people to cause trouble and threaten the government!"

"Ah, leader, if it is about fighting in the rivers and lakes, the brothers are not afraid of anyone, but if you want to gather a crowd to make trouble, many brothers have no idea. I heard that Chen Xiaogou is very powerful in martial arts, and he has many elite men under his command. With the support of Hu and Caobiao Qianhu, I am worried..."

"The people are afraid of officials, but when there are too many people and they cause trouble, officials are also afraid! What's more, Elder Zhang, don't you understand? Our White Lotus Sect has more than 6000 people on hand at this time. How many people are there in Yangzhou City? No matter what When officials come to our side, they dare not do anything to us!"

"It's not just Yangzhou! When we didn't have the uprising, how many believers were there in the capital? Didn't the government turn a blind eye?"

In a secret but exquisite courtyard in Yangzhou City, four big men stood in the room, and an old man sat in the middle, drinking tea leisurely.

This old man is Zuo Xingqun, the leader of the White Lotus Sect.

And those four big men are naturally the four elders of the White Lotus Sect.

Zuo Xingqun is 58 years old this year. When the White Lotus Sect rebelled 30 years ago, he had already become the messenger of light in the sect. Now 30 years have passed, his martial arts have become more refined, and his management power has become stronger. Regarding this gathering of people into the city, He was also fully confident that Zuo Xingqun didn't take Chen Zhao who everyone was afraid of.

Therefore, there is a superior bearing between speech and demeanor.

The elders nearby all spoke in agreement, with politeness and awe. After finishing their flattery, someone beside him whispered:
"The leader has a good idea, but this Chen Xiaogou is not an ordinary person. The thousands of soldiers in the Heying garrison and Caobiao are no different. I'm afraid it's no different from being abolished. But with the help of his management of the wharf, he managed to gather 200 people. In addition, those Yan Ding who patrol the Yan Yushi Yamen are all smart and powerful, I am afraid it is too dangerous. Master, we have to take some precautions in advance anyway."

Elder Zhang who expressed concern just now spoke again.

Zuo Xingqun smiled leisurely and said:
"Why are there no preparations? The person you sent out to keep an eye on every day is just a preparation, isn't it? Don't look at Chen Zhao's martial arts skills and powerful power, but don't forget that he is young. He is also afraid after killing someone. , The people who killed the Zhao family were just out of passion, so they must have been afraid. Otherwise, looking at those salt merchants who are extremely wealthy, wouldn’t they have already taken action? "

"Didn't we always send people to watch? Why didn't you drive them away from the censor's yamen? Lin Ruhai is an official, so he naturally pays attention to the official voice. He must have been reprimanded by him for doing such reckless things. So that Chen Xiaogou Gathering so many people proves that he is afraid, so he got these people to protect him!!"

Hearing what the leader said, everyone felt that it made sense, and couldn't help but nodded, even that Elder Zhang also agreed.

Seeing that everyone was convinced, and just about to speak, they saw the front door was suddenly pushed open, and a young and strong man stumbled in.

"Xiao Huo, what's wrong with you!"

Several people shouted out at the same time, and it was Huo Dongfei, a disciple of the leader of the White Lotus Sect, Zuo Xingqun, and one of the most powerful protectors in the sect.

Huo Dongfei's usual fierce appearance was completely gone, and he said in a panic:

"Leader, elders, Chen Zhao is leading a large group of people towards us."

"what?"

Zuo Xingqun, who was talking eloquently, felt that he had been slapped hard on the face.

But at this moment, who cares about this? The White Lotus Sect is becoming more and more powerful in Yangzhou City, but the government doesn't care about it. I thought it would slowly accumulate power as before and invade the salt affairs, but I didn't expect that Chen Zhao had nothing to do with it. The sudden onset of symptoms.

"Close the door quickly and gather the congregation!!"

Zuo Xingqun immediately made a decision and shouted loudly.

Although the door of the house was closed, the Zuo Xing group had superb internal skills, and the sound had already spread outside the door, and the congregation outside hurriedly closed the door.

All the people in the room stood up and looked outside nervously. The eyes of the group on the left were full of anger, staring at the closed door and said shyly:

"He is a little salt official, does he really think that he is unscrupulous because of his skills? Isn't he afraid of us making trouble?"

"The two rivers are transferred to the salt transport envoy to handle errands, open the gate quickly!!"

Almost as soon as the door closed, dense footsteps sounded outside, and someone shouted angrily outside. The faces of dozens of young and strong congregants in the courtyard suddenly changed, and they didn't know what to do at this time. , Qiqi turned his head to look towards the door, but what about the Zuo Xingqun?
Of course they can rise up and resist, so wouldn't the White Lotus Sect be completely exposed to the government?
You know, there are more than 6000 people in the city!

"Top the door and let them in!"

Huo Dongfei shouted loudly, panicked in his tone, it seemed that he had completely lost his sense of proportion.

"Boom!"

The gate of this mansion trembled suddenly, and there was a loud bang.

The door made of thick wood weighing several hundred kilograms was knocked open, and Chen Zhao stood with his hands behind his back, and walked in with great strides.

He glanced around, and everyone in the yard couldn't help but take a step back.

From the looks of it, this heavy door weighing hundreds of catties was unexpectedly pushed open by Chen Zhao.

This person has profound inner strength, how could he be like this?
At this moment, the door of the house was already wide open, and Zuo Xingqun walked out with his men.

As for Chen Zhaoshen, a group of saltmen armed with spears, swords and shields also came in.

"Chen Xunjian, our brothers are law-abiding and good citizens, and we have no grudges or grievances with you. You have come here with great fanfare and used your power to suppress me. What is the matter?"

Zuo Xingqun said coldly.

He said this with good reason.

Because in order to gather crowds to make trouble, he has stopped all private salt trading. The congregants who entered the city were all officially innocent people. Shrewd and tough.

"Master Zuo, whether you people who form an association are law-abiding citizens or not, you have nothing to say. The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty come from the emperor and the court, and are decided in Dali Temple. Have you people who formed an association with a history of rebellion committed any crimes? The Son of Heaven and Dali Temple have the final say."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the White Lotus Sect fell silent.

Chen Zhao acted like a court official, not to mention being arrogant, but he was also domineering, leaving the White Lotus Sect almost speechless.

After Chen Zhao finished speaking, he didn't say any more, and turned his eyes to the back.

Zhang Heqing, who was following behind him, understood, took a step forward and shouted: "Now you are surrounded, everyone kneels on the ground, otherwise it will be regarded as a serious crime of treason, and you will be shot!"

The words made it clear that the members of the Bailian Sect were scared out of their wits when they saw such ferocious officers and soldiers. They didn't know what to do at first, but when they heard this, they all knelt on the ground.

Only Zuo Xingqun, a few elders, and the guardians had ferocious faces and were furious.

With a big wave of Zhang Heqing's hand, dozens of officers and soldiers immediately tied up those congregants and dragged them away. Dozens of others armed with spears and knives surrounded Zuo Xingqun and others.

An elder said in a muffled voice: "Inspector Chen, not to mention that we are all good citizens, even if someone falsely accuses us of rebellion, it is the responsibility of Yangzhou prefect and Jiangdu county government. Your salt transportation government is responsible for salt affairs, so why arrest us? Even if we are arrested, we will not accept it, I am afraid that the people of Yangzhou will not accept it, and if you act on your behalf, I am afraid that the Yangzhou government will not be happy!"

Chen Zhao looked at their awe-inspiring looks, and smiled slightly: "You're right, our Salt Transport Yamen is indeed only in charge of salt affairs, but I think you, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, have rebellious minds, so it must not be the case. What a good person, there must be an act of smuggling official salt, and it is in line with the court law to kill him!"

His clear voice echoed in the deserted courtyard, and also echoed in the ears of every White Lotus Sect.

"In this way, I will have an account with the imperial court, and your congregation will be cleaned up, and the Yangzhou government will put all their hearts in their stomachs, wouldn't it be wonderful?"

Zuo Xingqun raised his head sullenly, and said in a harsh voice:

"Chen Xunjian, there are six thousand members of my White Lotus Sect in Yangzhou City, are you not afraid that the crowd will be angry and cause chaos in Yangzhou?"

"Don't be afraid, you can kill them all!"

Chen Zhao replied in a flat tone, ignoring the stunned people, but said to Zhang Heqing: "Except for a few leaders, tie up all the people in this house and drive them out of the city, and then the whole city will investigate. There must be no one who believes in the White Lotus Sect!"

A person behind Zuo Xingqun said anxiously: "You bitch official, you have such a stinky mouth! You are full of nonsense. With your method of confusing right and wrong, how can you say no? You have no evidence at all, and you are talking nonsense. There is no proof, you can say whatever you want, I, the White Lotus Sect, are going to the Yangzhou prefect, to the Liangjiang governor's mansion to beat the drums and to protest the grievances, and to the Jinluan Palace to beat the drums to protest the grievances!"

Although it is a bit ridiculous for cultists to beat drums and complain, but if people really want to do this, they must do it according to the rules.

"Haha!" Chen Zhao laughed loudly: "As long as it involves the Lianghuai Salt Affairs, our Salt Transport Yamen is the king of law!"
