Turbulent Times Chapter 895: Heart of nobility

"In the past, I didn't care what happened to Fanyang County, but now that I am the prefect of Fanyang County, I will never allow officials in Yurou Township to use their power to persecute the people."

When Wang Junlin said these words, his face was upright, which made people feel admiration.

Looking at the admiration in the eyes of the people, Wang Junlin suddenly remembered that in later generations, many candidates for ruling in capitalist countries like to use speeches to win the votes of citizens. It is easy to be deceived by the speeches of politicians. After all, only a few people can see the essence through the appearance, especially those college students who are incited to carry out demonstrations. Since ancient times, no matter which country they are, most of the time college students They are often just victims used by some conspirators, and even when they are punished or even killed, they still think that what they have done is extremely just.

Shaking his head lightly, and throwing away the messy thoughts in his mind, Wang Junlin shouted loudly: "Bring four prisoners to the stage."

Looking at the four high-ranking officials in the past, now with their hands and feet chained, wearing prison uniforms, and being led up to the high platform with fear and despair on their faces, the tens of thousands of people in the audience were silent for a moment, and then they broke out louder roared, but everyone looked happy, and some even gave the four prisoners the vegetable leaves and eggs they had just sold in the morning.

When Wang Junlin saw this scene, he didn't let anyone stop him. He waited until the people had vented their anger, and then he said: "According to the laws of the Sui Dynasty, four people should be beheaded and executed immediately."

Wang Junlin waited lazily for the time when the yang energy was at its peak at noon, and directly ordered the beheading.

It was the new Captain Feng Xiaoyong who beheaded Chang Youcai, the magistrate of the county. And beheaded himself.

Feng Xiaoyong agreed without any hesitation. Maybe he knew what it meant to behead the county magistrate Lu Jiandong, or he was temporarily blinded by hatred and didn't think of it. In short, when he beheaded the four criminals , especially the moment when Lu Jiandong's head was cut off, it meant that he could only follow Wang Junlin wholeheartedly, because he had already offended Lu, and only Wang Junlin could protect him, even his former benefactor, General You Yiwei, who was far away in Kyoto, came to protect his son, but he couldn't protect him.

Following the people's exclamation, some adults quickly blocked the eyes of their own children, Feng Xiaoyong ruthlessly chopped off Chang Youcai's head, and blood spurted half a foot high from his neck.

Next, Feng Xiaoyong cut off the heads of the other three prisoners without any hesitation. After four exclamations from the people at the scene, they shouted again.

"Good kill."

"Dog officer, you have today."

"The prefect is the master of Qingtian."

"Thank you, Lord Prefect, for paying justice for the villain."

…

Among the chaotic shouts, some people who had been persecuted by the four people first knelt down to thank Wang Junlin on the stage, and other people also knelt down. After the chaotic shouts, finally everyone shouted in unison: " Thank you, Lord Prefect, for making decisions for us."

…

…

When Wang Junlin's chariot left Changxiang County, what was left behind was the praise of the people and the uneasiness of the nobles and gentry in the county, because Wang Junlin took seven or eight nobles and gentry with him when he left. The reason is that he just came to Fanyang County, and he lacks educated staff and entourage. The heads of the four chief officials of the county had just fallen to the ground, how could these nobles and gentry in the county dare to say 'no', they agreed in a daze.

At this time, they stood at the Shili Pavilion on the east side of the county seat of Changxiang, watching the convoy of the prefect disappear into the cold winter wind. All the nobles and gentry in the county looked at each other in blank dismay, beating their chests and feet, worrying endlessly.

From last night to today's noon, in just ten or so hours, Changxiang County has changed. They took part in the whole process of changing the sky in Changxiang County. They even sent their children to the new prefect to serve as clerks and attendants. All this spread to Lu's ears. No matter how they explained it, they would be regarded as Take refuge in the new prefect.

"It's hard to tell now, I'm afraid the Lu family will not let me wait..." The largest noble in Changxiang County is the Han family. Han Shengping said with some worry.

Seeing that his father was worried, he was a junior official of the ninth grade in the county, and Han Xiong, who was thinking of taking advantage of the vacancy of the county lieutenant, was sitting opposite Han Shengping, but said disapprovingly: "Mr. Although powerful, as long as there is no rebellion, Fan Yang County is in charge of the prefect, so why be afraid? With the power of the prefect, I think Lu's power in Fanyang County will drop a lot in a few years. By then, It is time for us little nobles to take the opportunity to rise up!"

"You know a fart."

Han Shengping gave his son a hard look: "The Lu family has accumulated power in Fanyang County for thousands of years, and it has already become a towering tree covering the entire Fanyang County. How can it be that easy to deal with? Moreover, Lu's in-laws are all over the entire Fanyang County, and there are countless Lu's descendants who are officials and officials in the seven counties of Fanyang. , or since the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, the prefects of Fanyang County, Chang Shi, General Ying Yanglang, and county officials have all relied on Lu to ensure that taxes will not be arrears and the law and order will be safe."

Speaking of this, Han Shengping paused for a moment, and said: "As soon as the new prefect took office, he was first surrounded and killed by more than a thousand cavalry thieves who suddenly appeared, and then the officials of the Lu family in the county were killed. It is obviously difficult to get along with each other in peace. Now our Han family has the imprint of the prefect in a muddle, and we really don't know if it is a blessing or a curse!"

Han Xiong was stunned for a moment, he really didn't think that much before, but after thinking for a while, he shook his head and said: "Although the Lu family is powerful, I still feel that the new prefect is stronger?"

Han Sheng blew his beard and stared angrily, and said: "Your sixth brother went to the county town with the prefect, I think you should send your seventh brother to study in the academy run by the Lu family. This can be regarded as a gift to the Lu family Make a statement."

Han Xiong frowned and said: "Father, I'm afraid it's not good to have such a thing with two ends!"

Han Shengping scolded: "It's not good, it's settled like this. It's not up to you to decide the affairs of the Han family. When I die, you can do whatever you like."
