"Of course not!" Xu Yu was startled and turned around to see the county soldiers, "Hurry up and put down your weapons, put them down quickly!"
He was the second-ranking official in Yunzhong County. He was considered equal to Zuo Su on weekdays and had high prestige. After hearing his order, the county soldiers put down their weapons one by one.
These county soldiers did not want to rebel at first. After taking the lead, there was an endless stream of voices throwing down their weapons.
Sang Hong then said: "County Lieutenant Dong Jin coerced the county soldiers to attack the imperial envoy's residence. He should have been executed immediately, but because he was worried about the safety of the county guard, it was understandable to a certain extent. For now, let's hold off for now."
He will be detained until it is investigated that he has nothing to do with this case before being released."
"During this period, Gao Ying will serve as the county captain and maintain the security of Yunzhong County."
Gao Ying was stunned, but he reacted quickly. Hearing this, he immediately led a group of Yulin Lang to the middle of the county soldiers: "I will live up to my trust!"
Naturally, a mere county captain would not pay attention to a member of a wealthy family like him, but now he obviously wants to control the military power.
Sang Hong nodded. Gao Ying's calm demeanor was reassuring. With him as the county captain, although he might not be able to control the soldiers in a short time, having someone there would always make a difference.
Of course, this mission is quite dangerous. Once those middle- and upper-level officers intend to rebel, Gao Ying will be in danger, but now he doesn't care about that much.
He looked at Xu Yu aside: "Does Xu Biejia have any objections to this arrangement?"
Xu Yu's expression changed slightly, but he still said immediately: "The most important thing is to stabilize the situation at the moment. How can I have any objections from this official?"
As he spoke, he waved to the county soldiers: "Why don't you quickly pay your respects to the new county captain?"
"Greetings to the County Captain." The soldiers saluted weakly to Gao Ying, obviously they were all helpless.
"Gao Ying, please take them back to their respective positions first. Remember to maintain law and order in the city and don't let those scoundrels take advantage of them." Sang Hong ordered, take these county soldiers away first to resolve this crisis.
As for how to comfort them after they leave, this will test Gao Ying's ability. After getting along with each other for this period of time, he believes that Gao Ying has this ability.
"Take your orders!" Gao Ying saluted, greeted a group of Yulin Lang, and then left with the county soldiers in turn.
After they left, Sang Hong looked at Xu Yu: "The timing of Mr. Xu's arrival is really coincidental."
They didn't come early, they didn't come late, but they showed up right after the riot was settled. It's hard not to be suspicious.
Xu Yu smiled bitterly and said: "I hurried here after getting the news. Although it was a little late, I finally didn't let things develop in an uncontrollable direction. Mr. Sang, what happened? Why did you suddenly arrest Mr. Zuo?
?”
His subtext is that although I came a little late, I still helped you gather the county soldiers. Even if there is no credit, there is still trouble.
Sang Hong could hear what he was saying, so he naturally didn't want to get angry. Just as he was about to reply, the sound of rapid horse hooves sounded, and several more groups of people came over from a distance.
The leaders were brothers Jian Taiding, Pei Shao, Yu Xuansu, Yu Xuanqing, and other officials.
Jian Taiding rode his horse and was the first to arrive at the door and said coldly: "Master Sang, why are you making such a big fuss?"
Behind him was a group of soldiers, which were obviously much more elite than the previous county soldiers.
Sang Hong said coldly: "Just now, the county lieutenant Dong Jin led his troops to attack the imperial envoy's residence. Is it possible that Lord Jian should follow suit?"
Jian Taiding narrowed his eyes and did not answer, and the place suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Sang Hong stood proudly. Although the other party was a master and led more soldiers, they were imperial envoys with the imperial court behind them and the gold medal Eleven looking after them.
Therefore, even if you are defeated, your momentum must not be weak, at least you must die with dignity.
Zu An stood beside Sang Hong, worried that Jian Taiding would come to capture the thief first and capture the king first, so he had to protect his cheap father-in-law.
Feeling his movements, Sang Hong felt warm in his heart. Sure enough, his family was still reliable.
At this time, Jian Taiding smiled: "Master Sang is worrying too much. I just heard that Master Zuo was arrested, so I came over to see what happened."
As he said this, he jumped off the horse, and all the nervous officials beside him breathed a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that he would do something impulsively.
So who are the Yunzhong County officials helping? If they help Jian Taiding, it will be a serious crime of treason after the court investigates;
If he had helped the Imperial Envoy and his party, they might not even have achieved what they have today.
Sang Hong also secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "I have received a real-name report from someone before that Mr. Zuo colluded with the demon clan and smuggled yuan stones and strategic materials strictly prohibited by the imperial court, so I took Mr. Zuo under control first. I will wait until it is found out who Mr. Zuo is.
After he is innocent, he will definitely be innocent again."
Although everyone had heard some rumors more or less before coming, now that Sang Hong had personally confirmed it, everyone in the group was still in an uproar:
"There must be a misunderstanding."
"Master Zuo has always been conscientious in his work, how could he collude with the demon clan?"
"This must be a frame-up!"
…
Sang Hong glanced around at the clamoring officials and said calmly: "You guys are so confident, do you dare to use your wealth and life to vouch for Mr. Zuo?"
Those people suddenly looked suffocated. They were just talking about the situation out of friendship. Why don't you talk about martial ethics?
Since the other party dares to arrest Zuo Su, he obviously has some evidence. Who dares to guarantee him in this situation?
If the charges were indeed proven, wouldn't they be all over?
At this time, Jian Taiding spoke: "I wonder who the person who made the real-name report was, and what kind of evidence did Mr. Sang have to arrest him directly?"
Sang Hong was expressionless: "We are obliged to keep the person who reported the report confidential and protect his safety. As for what kind of evidence, we cannot comment until the case is clear."
Seeing his lackluster look, Jian Taiding was also a little annoyed: "I heard that many officials died when you arrested them. You must follow the rules when investigating cases, right? How can you kill people without finding out anything?"
With him taking the lead, others also started making noises and denounced the imperial envoy and his party. They were also officials of Yunzhong County. Who knew whether such a thing would happen to them.
Zu An on the side said: "It's not the people we killed. When our people found them, they either escaped or were already dead, so there should be someone behind the scenes planning all this. If Master Jian knows anything, you might as well provide it."
Here are some clues, who in the whole Yunzhong County has such great ability?"
Jian Taiding's expression changed. The other party's words were obviously insinuations. Who else in Yunzhong County could have such great ability besides him?
Even other officials present couldn't help but look at him.
Jian Taiding was annoyed, but he couldn't show it at this time: "Excuse my ignorance, I didn't know there was such a powerful person in Yunzhong County."
The anger value from Jian Taiding is +236+236+236...
He didn't want to get entangled on this topic, so he turned to Sang Hong and said, "Sir Sang, can we go see Mr. Zuo?"
Sang Hong shook his head and said: "The case has not been investigated clearly now. In order to avoid passing information between each other, Mr. Zuo cannot be allowed to contact other people now."
Jian Taiding's face darkened: "Does Mr. Sang mean that we will collude with Mr. Zuo?"
Other officials also chimed in, obviously not satisfied that they were also under suspicion.
Sang Hong said calmly: "That's not what I meant, but this case is extremely strange and requires extra caution. We made this decision for everyone's sake, so as not to accidentally involve everyone."
"If Mr. Zuo is innocent, it won't have any impact if everyone doesn't see him."
"If Mr. Zuo is really as reported, then his accomplices are probably the most anxious to see him now."
As he spoke, he glanced at the entire audience.
Jian Taiding's breath was suffocated. The other party had already said this. If he persisted, wouldn't he have been convicted of being an accomplice with Zuo Su?
"Then I hope Mr. Sang will find out the truth as soon as possible to avoid big trouble in Yunzhong County." After saying this, he walked away.
As soon as he left, the others also left.
Xu Yu hesitated several times and finally sighed and left.
Watching them leave, Sang Hong ordered Yu Linlang: "Guard the area around the hotel and don't let even a fly in!"
"promise!"
Sang Hong arranged for Dong Jin to be taken away to be held in solitary confinement so as not to give him a chance to collude with Zuo Su to confess.
Zu An took the opportunity to ask: "Why was Jian Taiding so concerned after Zuo Su's accident this time, considering that they were clearly at odds before?"
Sang Hong snorted coldly: "When has the officialdom ever been consistent with what he said? He is probably taking this opportunity to show off his relationship with himself, and maybe his mouth will burst into laughter when he returns."
Pei You on the side said happily: "Fortunately, there were eleven gold medals and Brother Zu just now, otherwise there would have been countless casualties in a real fight."
Sang Hong raised his head and looked at the second floor: "Where's Mr. Eleven? Go and ask him to come down quickly. We want to thank him properly."
I also want to discuss the current situation with the other party.
Soon a guard ran back: "Master Eleven has disappeared!"
Pei You looked amazed: "Master Eleven is really a dragon that sees its head but never its tail."
Sang Hong frowned: "In this current situation, doesn't he come to discuss it with us?"
Zu An coughed lightly and said, "Master Eleven must have his own reasons, but he will definitely guard us silently in the dark. Let's solve the matter here ourselves."
