Emperor Chongzhen gave those lists to Liu Xingzuo, and at the same time issued an order: "Send Tiqi to lock up prisoners by name."

"The general obeys the order!" Upon hearing this, Liu Xingzuo immediately clasped his fists and accepted the order. He knew that the emperor still had instructions, so he continued to listen respectfully.

Sure enough, after Emperor Chongzhen pondered for a moment, he then ordered: "Send a notice to all the neighbors in the countryside and tell them that I will have a public trial for the hegemony. All the victims can come to Nanxun Town to complain!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Shouldn't it be a major case of rebellion? Why did it become a public trial? Also, what does this public trial mean? Still filing a complaint?

A whole forehead of paste! But no one dared to ask. But Liu Xingzuo knew what public trials meant. After all, the Ming army had done this in Liaodong, Hetao and other border areas, and it seemed to be very beneficial to quickly win people's hearts.

But there was one thing he couldn't understand: why didn't the emperor first pursue the crime of treason? Could it be that we are not pursuing any further investigation? This is impossible!

With the same doubts, Liu Xingzuo immediately went down to carry out the imperial edict.

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen will certainly not not pursue the crime of treason, otherwise he would not have to stay here. It's just that everything is centered on economic construction, and everything has to be done step by step.

With the confirmed list, Emperor Chongzhen did not need to continue to relax. He turned to Chen Youming and said: "You know about the hegemony. In Nanxun Town, I believe there are many people like you who have been oppressed. You and Go and inform them that I have something for you to do."

Although Chen Youming was still a little confused about this order, it did not prevent him from obeying it.

When he returned to Chen Youming's house, the silkworm farmers were still there, and Emperor Chongzhen ordered them again: "I give you an errand to go to the surrounding villages and towns to tell all the silkworm farmers that all those who have been oppressed by the tyrants of Nanxun Town will He said that I will hold a public trial for the tyrants here in three days, and everyone can come and file a complaint."

Having said this, he paused and said: "I have sent people to post notices, but I don't know if they will come. You go and tell them that if they want to live a good life without being oppressed by the tyrants in the future, then Let me know while I am still in Jiangnan. Otherwise, if you are timid and afraid of trouble, even if I deal with all these tyrants, new tyrants will come out to oppress them. Their future is in their own hands. In hand!"

These silkworm farmers did not dare not listen to the emperor's words. But the most important thing is that the emperor's words are very reasonable. Although they don't understand what the public trial is about, it does not prevent them from understanding that the emperor wants to make the decision for them personally.

Think about it, throughout the history of the dynasties, there has never been an emperor who was so close to the people, who could not be afraid of trouble, carry out such a big thing, and encourage the people to complain!

If I insist on talking about it, it seems that the only one who can be found is the founding ancestor! Taizu had issued a similar edict at the beginning. If the people were bullied by officials, they could be kidnapped and brought to Beijing to complain. Of course, whether this will is operable or not is one thing, at least it has expressed this meaning.

Seeing the silkworm farmers excitedly being escorted away by the Jinyi Guards, Emperor Chongzhen ordered the Jinyi Guards who were following him: "Go to the town or Suzhou City to find talented opera and storytelling people. There is no limit on the number of people, but they must be talented. !”

"According to the order!" A royal guard immediately agreed and led the people away.

Emperor Chongzhen had a candidate in mind, Wen Tiren's younger brother Wen Yuren, but unfortunately, he was currently far away in the capital and couldn't make it, so he had to use local materials and find more people to write scripts for acting, storytelling, and even You also need to be able to write poems, poems, etc. As long as you can read it yourself, let others sing it.

Coupled with such new events as the emperor's public trial, it must have had a great impact on the people of the Ming Dynasty. Dramas such as the emperor paying a private visit incognito and punishing bullies are even more popular with the people than Bao Qingtian. I don’t believe it anymore. If we engage in a public opinion war, we can’t defeat those gentry! Don't think that I'm just a fool who spends his whole life in the Forbidden City!

In the afternoon, such a big movement in Nanxun Town inevitably spread as quickly as possible. As a result, bureaucrats from surrounding guard stations and cities rushed to Nanxun Town with their people. Until dark, there was an endless stream of civil servants and military officers arriving. Suddenly, Nanxun Town became the focus of the surrounding area. As time went by, it became the focus of Jiangnan and even the entire Ming Dynasty. It's just that other places are too far away from Nanxun Town, and people there can't come here.

Three days later, Nanxun Town was packed with people. Troops from the local guard station maintained order on the outside. Inside, there were more than 500 Jinyi guards and more than 200 Dongchang officers. Apart from the civil servants and military generals from various places, the largest number of people are naturally ordinary people.

It can be said that this is the biggest event in Jiangnan since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Even in the future, I'm afraid it won't be so big and high-level to watch.

On a temporary high platform, there was no one on the throne, but on both sides of the throne stood the civil and military officers from Jiangnan, all of whom looked very ugly. On a slightly lower platform below the high platform, kneeling were the arrested leaders of Nanxun Town, including Chen Youtong, who had a broken leg, the Chen clan leader, Chen Donghai, the leader of this term, and Wang Donglei, the clan leader of the Wang clan. etc. On the flat ground in front of the platform, there were piles of civilians separated by officers and soldiers.

Too many people concentrated in one place was a huge test for logistics, organization and other capabilities at this time in ancient times. Emperor Chongzhen did not want to delay too long, so as soon as the three days were up, he immediately started as scheduled without any intention of delaying. With a high-pitched singing voice of "The Emperor has arrived!", Emperor Chongzhen finally stopped wearing plain clothes and made a grand entrance under the protection of the royal guards.

"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor!" Both the officials and the people all knelt down to greet him. The roar of the mountains and the tsunami echoed in the sky above Nanxun Town.

Emperor Chongzhen did not go to sit on the throne, strode to the front of the stage, glanced at the countless heads below, and said with both hands: "Pingsheng!"

He didn't need to be loud. In fact, no matter how loud he was, it was useless. There were too many people. If you stood far away, you wouldn't even hear what was said on the stage. But this is not a problem, only the Jinyi Guards School Captain is the mouthpiece.

After everyone stood up, Emperor Chongzhen looked at the lowered heads and said in a deep voice: "I patrolled the south of the Yangtze River incognito and was deeply pleased with the diligence of the people in the south of the Yangtze River. However, I also saw some things that made me very unhappy. A happy thing. Just like in Nanxun Town, I encountered local bullies who used their power to oppress good people. I know that this incident is definitely not the only one I encountered. Today, I am here to uphold justice for my people. I I hope that your diligence will not be trampled on by the local tyrants and evil gentry. If you have any injustices that have been oppressed by them, you can speak out and I will make the decision for you!"
