I'm really not the carpenter emperor

The man suddenly panicked.

"There is no sound... Did the factory master hear it wrong?"

"Go away!" Fanzi kicked open the door with a "bang", pushed the men and women away, and shouted loudly:

"Search!"

The fans immediately filed in, and soon, a down-and-out scholar in a green shirt was found in the inner room.

This scholar is one of the leaders of many Suzhou scholars in Suzhou City, Wen Zhenheng, a student of the Imperial Academy.

Wen Zhenheng, it sounds like it has some origins.

In the first imperial examination of the Tianqi Dynasty, which Zhu Youxiao personally presided over in the first year of the Tianqi Dynasty, he appointed his elder brother Wen Zhenmeng as the champion of the new subject.

After Wen Zhenmeng was hand-picked the champion of the new department, he did not make a career. Instead, he used this relationship to continuously promote Donglin scholars.

Obviously, the champion of the new department, and even the family members who were able to ascend to heaven because of the emperor's favor, did not feel grateful to Zhu Youxiao.

Fanzi looked at the middle-aged man coldly, and at this moment, the woman also started yelling and hitting the man frantically.

"I told you not to participate in these things, why didn't you listen?"

"Can't we just live our lives properly? We must go out and rob others for this cheap thing."

"Otherwise, how could our family be threatened by these sanctimonious hypocrites and ask us to take him in?"

The man sat on the ground withered, and even now, he has 1 regrets.

But there is no medicine for regret in this world, and it is because of his infatuation that he has come to the present result step by step.

There was no pity on Fanzi's face, and he waved:

"Bring Wen Zhenheng to the square. As for this family, they will be exiled as usual, and will never be allowed to return to their original place!"

The man froze for a moment, then raised his head, a little in disbelief.

"Really, don't you need to behead?"

The woman also had tears all over her face, kowtowed again and again: "Thank you Grandpa Factory, thank you Grandpa Factory for not killing me!"

Driven by his parents, the boy kowtowed very sensiblely.

"Thank you? Without His Majesty's will, none of you can live in my hands." Fanzi had already walked to the door, but when he heard this, he turned around and said with a sneer:

"Your Majesty is grateful that you are also a poor family, and you have a special decree. Those who want to have families will be relocated to other places."

"Remember how long you have to think about it when someone persuades you, there are not many good things like this in the world!"

"let's go!"

The fans escorted Wen Zhenheng away, leaving a family of three in shock, paralyzed on the ground, unable to recover for a long time.

The fans who claim to be the ones who don't leave anywhere they go, apart from arresting people in a big way this time, they didn't do anything to them.

……

Outside Gulou Street, Suzhou, the square.

A large number of soldiers and civilians gathered here, and even filled the nearby streets and alleys, at least tens of thousands of people, but the difference from before was that the streets were full of sharp-armed officers and soldiers.

Since the Jiangnan Camp infantry arrived in Suzhou yesterday, it has taken over the city defense and armament of the entire city of Suzhou, and imposed martial law and a curfew.

In the past few days, no matter day or night, officers and soldiers have completely replaced the servants of the Suzhou government office, patrolling the whole city uninterruptedly.

Dozens of dark cannons were added to the city of Suzhou, and behind each crenel there was an expressionless officer and soldier standing guard.

Even the officers and soldiers of several surrounding state capitals and guards were briefly taken over by the brave guard battalion.

According to the regulations, the participating generals and above generals of the Northwest Camp and Jiangnan Camp have the right to directly take over the command of local soldiers and horses in times of crisis.

And the Yongwei Battalion, which is the forbidden army, is even higher in regulation than the Northwest Camp and the Jiangnan Camp.

As the imperial battalion directly under the emperor, Chen Ce, the governor of the Yongwei Battalion, could even kill the generals below the rank of general if he had to.

Of course, this situation has never really happened since the establishment of the Yongwei Battalion.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Suzhou-Hangzhou area in the south of the Yangtze River has always been a prosperous place that the world flocks to, and there has never been such a large-scale situation of martial law among officers and soldiers.

Especially in the city of Suzhou, under Huang Degong's strict order, there was a situation where he would rather kill ten wrong people than spare one.

Anyone who appears during the curfew, no matter what the purpose is, kill!

Anyone who spreads rumors and causes trouble, no matter what their identity is, kill them!

The Jiangnan Camp was not an ordinary army. Although its combat effectiveness was inferior to the Northwest Camp and the Yongwei Camp, it was formed by gathering elites from the seven southern provinces who were loyal to the imperial court.

The Northwest Camp and the Jiangnan Camp, these two local military camps established by Zhu Youxiao himself, were all issued weapons and armor according to the specifications of the Nine Frontier Army.

The reason why these big camps were formed was to send troops quickly at critical times, calm down the place, and deter Xiaoxiao.

Huang Degong sat on the top, there were still some coagulated blood on the leaves of the iron armor, and the fingertips holding the handle of the knife were turning white.

A bloody smell wafted faintly in the air, making the tens of thousands of people around feel tight and painful in their chests.

Except for those officers and soldiers who were used to seeing life and death all year round, few people would remain calm in the face of such a bloody scene.

Under the high platform, there are hundreds of terrified heads.

After the situation subsided, the bloody and cruel means used by Dongchang to retaliate against those rioters terrified the hearts of all Suzhou scholars.

But in any case, Suzhou must set an example for the world.

Otherwise, such things will continue to emerge in the seven provinces in the south of the Yangtze River!

Until now, there are still a steady stream of people related to the riots being arrested from their homes or from various places in the city and locked here.

In the past few days, Dongchang has been arresting people from house to house almost according to the list.

Chapter 718 Death of the Five Gentlemen of Suzhou

As Zhou Shunchang, Ma Jie, Yang Nianru, and Shen Yang, the four leaders of the Muslim uprising, were brought up, discussions broke out in the crowd again.

"Dongchang said that this time he followed His Majesty's imperial decree, where is the imperial decree?"

"If there is no imperial decree, it will be another ghost made by Quan Yi!"

"These scholars have a good reputation in the daily life, how could they be the ones deliberately bewitching and causing trouble?"

Some people began to complain for Zhou Shunchang and others with angry faces, and hundreds of scholars gathered in front of them, holding a bunch of incense in their hands, pleading for their lives.

Zhang Xiao, the supervisor of the yamen, watched it and wept silently.

Zhou Shunchang still straightened his neck and said loudly:

"Everyone, I have generously devoted myself to righteousness, died a worthy death, and studied hard for half my life. I can't do nothing!"

"Now, it can be regarded as a deadly remonstrance to the emperor, and I have devoted myself to Daming!"

Yang Nianru also said: "You don't have to cry and beg these eunuchs, since I stand up when this kind of eunuch is in power, I don't intend to live!"

Shen Yang turned his head to look at the factory workers standing on the stage, spit and said:

"These dogs, they will die!"

Ma Jie was originally the groom of Zhou Shunchang's house, he didn't see any big scene, he was trembling all over, he didn't say anything.

On the contrary, Zhou Shunchang looked at Zhang Xiao, the supervisor sent by the yamen to supervise the beheading, and said with emotion: "The supervisor is sensible, you should know that we are righteous and not chaotic."

Zhang Xiao actually cried bitterly, wiped away his tears and said:

"Everyone of high righteousness, I, Zhang Xiao, feel ashamed."

"Now, it doesn't matter if the supervisor doesn't do it—!"

After finishing speaking, he threw down the token of supervisory beheading, and walked away under the admiring eyes of everyone. This scene was naturally seen by the factory workers.

"Supervisor Gao Yi!"

Huang Degong sat firmly on it, listening to the shouts of the scholars in the crowd, his eyes kept scanning them, but he didn't say much.

He is only the leader of the army, and only when there is trouble, he will take action.

Now these shameless scholars want to perform again, so just watch it with the mentality of watching a play.

As for what kind of trouble they really want to cause, Jiangnan Daying doesn't care how much reputation he has among the people.

Anyone who disturbs civil order must die.

Fu Yingxing squinted his eyes and waited quietly for the group of people to finish their performance, not in the mood of getting frustrated.

As for taking out the imperial decree, this is even more nonsense. Now that the overall situation has been settled, Dongchang will act according to the decree, and there is no need to prove anything to the world.

Everything will be settled after the smoke disappears.

Fu Yingxing has been with Wei Zhongxian for so long, and he has learned a little superficial kung fu. With an unusually calm expression, he waved his hand:

"Bring Zhou Shunchang up."

Looking at Zhou Shunchang who was tied up in front of him by Wuhuada, the factory worker, Fu Yingxing had a gloomy smile on his face, bent over and whispered:

"No matter how you act, if you stretch out your head, if you shrink your head, it's still a stab."

Immediately, he straightened up and ordered loudly:

"Zhou Shunchang was agitating for rebellion, and his crime should be punished. Dongchang was ordered to investigate and prosecute. The 26 people in the whole house were asked to be executed in the street!"

"preparation--"

As soon as the words fell, dozens of people from the Zhou Mansion who were covered in black cloth and shackled their hands and feet immediately appeared on the high platform.

A group of factory servants stood behind these people with government-made single swords engraved with the word "East Factory", aiming the cold blade at their necks.

Fu Yingxing raised his hand, waiting for an order, but there was chaos underneath.

The scholars rushed forward one after another, there were hundreds of them, seeing that the situation was about to be provoked by these people again, Huang Degong had no choice but to come forward.

He stood up, drew out the goose-wing knife, and shouted:

"Did you wait for the bear heart and leopard courage, dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head, shout and make trouble, all of them will be taken by the governor!"

With an order, the surrounding officers and soldiers of the Jiangnan camp started to move.

The musketeer raised his shotgun, and aimed the black shotgun at the Donglin scholars who were rushing forward.

The rest of the officers and soldiers also drew out their knives one after another.

"Retreat!"

"If you dare to take a step forward, you will be killed!"

"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!" The officers and soldiers lined up in a row holding steel guns, shouting loudly, causing everyone to tremble in fear.

Every time the officers and soldiers took a step forward, the rioters took a hasty step back.

Until there was no way to retreat, he was forced to a dead end.

One of the generals raised his steel knife and said expressionlessly, "Now, put your head in your hands and kneel on the ground."

"Otherwise, kill it!"

"Shoot to kill! Shoot to kill! Shoot to kill!!" At the end of the sentence, the officers and soldiers were all staring at each other.

The murderous aura exuding from their bodies made people shudder, and there was no doubt about the authenticity of this warning.

After all, everyone came out to make troubles because they saw the profit. No one wanted to follow these Donglin scholars and lose their lives.

For a moment, one after another put their heads in their hands, knelt on the ground and shouted for mercy.

"Don't let go, we won't move!"

"It's all these scholars who provoked us, we are all good citizens!"

The general scrutinized them for a while, but suddenly stepped aside, and Huang Degong, the governor of Jiangnan Daying, came over.

He stood still for a while, and then focused his gaze on the leader of the scholar, without saying a word, he was stabbed in the head.

The scholar looked at the scene in front of him, and seemed to find it unbelievable.

But the next moment, his eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground, with black and red blood gushing from his head, making the rest of the scholars nauseous.

"The provocateurs will be killed, and the rest will be locked up and sent to various mines and military factories to serve as slaves. Take them away!"

After some tossing, Jiangnan Daying arrested hundreds of rebellious scholars, and more than [-] people who followed the rebellion.

Most of those arrested by Dongchang and officers and soldiers were "bachelors".
