Diao Nu shouted loudly: "I didn't, I didn't, he is spitting blood."
Seeing that Diao Nu was so unruly, Li Furui was furious and shouted: "Shut up, I didn't ask you a question. Why did you interrupt me? If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Diao Nu was too frightened to speak. Then Li Furui said to Wang Zhengxing: "You accuse him of committing evil acts. Do you have any evidence?"
"have."
Wang Zhengxing took out a woman's dress in his hand and said: "This dress is the one worn by my concubine. It was torn by this naughty slave. Old Qingtian only needs to look at the finger joints of this naughty slave to see the remnants of the dress."
Hair crumbs.”
"Send it up."
Li Furui had no intention of trying the case. Seeing that the witnesses and physical evidence were so abundant, he ordered someone to bring the clothes to him. He could take a casual look at them and walk through the process before closing the case.
After listening to Li Furui's words, a yamen officer stepped forward and wanted to take the clothes from Wang Zhengxing's hands. Unexpectedly, Wang Zhengxing stepped over him and took the initiative to deliver the clothes to Li Furui himself.
Li Furui only said that Wang Zhengxing was like this because he was humiliated and lost some sense. He did not argue with him and reached out to take the clothes.
But when Li Furui took the clothes from Wang Zhengxing's hand, a dagger suddenly appeared in Wang Zhengxing's hand!
Li Furui was stunned. Before he could turn around, Wang Zhengxing, with quick eyesight and quick hands, immediately took a dagger and cut Li Furui's throat with one knife. Blood splashed on Wang Zhengxing's face.
The government officials on both sides were shocked when they saw this. They subconsciously took a few steps back and looked at Wang Zhengxing in disbelief, wondering why he was acting like this.
Wang Zhengxing shouted, "Do it."
Immediately, the servants of the Wang family and the people who were watching the excitement at the gate of the county government rushed in and surrounded the government servants and scribes.
Wang Zhengxing's eyes were sharp and he said to the government clerks: "The court is unjust and persecutes the loyal and good, and wants to kill the gentry like us. Now that the righteous gentry is rising and the world is turbulent, the court does not have many days left. You and I are all in our company."
People from Jiangxi, today I am raising the flag of righteousness and resisting tyranny. You and I should be united, so why bother working for a court that is ignorant and doomed to perish?"
The yamen servants and scribes were surrounded by Wang Zhengxing's relatives and servants. They were all afraid. Hearing what he said, they didn't know what to do.
Wang Zhengxing suddenly raised his voice and said sternly: "Out of loyalty to my hometown, I will give you a chance to survive. As long as you swear allegiance, you will survive. If you persist in your stubbornness, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword."
The yamen servants and scribes were all in shock. Wang Zhengxing winked at one of the scribes.
The clerk understood the idea and said loudly: "The imperial court has implemented a new law with no legal basis. Now the world is full of tyrants. This is an act of justice in accordance with the order of heaven. This shows that the destiny of heaven is not in Zhao. I am willing to join the prince and overthrow the tyranny."
"
This clerk was Wang Zhengxing's spy in the county government. With him taking the lead, other government officials and clerks naturally agreed to follow him in order to survive.
Wang Zhengxing was satisfied, but he was negligent and did not notice that the county magistrate Zhang Kai had taken advantage of the situation and escaped. This shows that he was also a man of great ambition and low skill, and had no great ability.
Then Wang Zhengxing asked every yamen servant and clerk to chop a knife on Li Furui's body to show his break with the government. They had no choice but to do it.
Immediately, Wang Zhengxing asked his second brother Wang Zhengzhong to take over the county government's treasury, and asked his third brother Wang Zhengkai to mobilize powerful people from various families to spread the word that the court was unjust and its destruction was imminent, and asked them to join the gang.
Wang Zhengxing himself took Li Furui's head and hundreds of people to the city tower to coerce the county captain Wang Bing to hand over his military power and join the gang.
At this time, Wang Zhengxing had already taken control of the county government. Many powerful people had various purposes, and many people obeyed him, which made his momentum grow bigger and bigger.
Wang Bing saw the chaos in the city streets on the city tower. He knew something had happened and quickly ordered people to investigate. He was horrified when he learned that Wang Zhengxing had killed officials and rebelled.
Wang Bing knew that the city could no longer be defended no matter what. He was so panicked that he couldn't control it so much. He took a few of his confidants back home, took his wife, children and their families with him, and fled through another city gate.
Wang Bing fled, and the county town soon fell into the hands of Wang Zhengxing. He placed his brothers and trusted associates in key positions. When everything was settled, he sent a messenger to report the news to the rebel camp outside the city.
But it is said that Wang Bing fled for his life all the way, and met soldiers and horses who came to rescue him on the road. The leader of the soldiers was named Zhang Ruohong.
Zhang Ruohong was extremely surprised when he learned about the situation. He said: "I didn't expect that Wang Zhengxing was so bold and dared to kill officials and rebel!"
"General, now that the thieves are united, what should we do?" Wang Bin asked.
Zhang Ruohong weighed and weighed for a while, and finally said: "Now I don't have enough troops to go to suppress the bandits. It seems that I can only wait for the new army."
"New Army?" Wang Bing was confused, not knowing what the New Army was.
Zhang Ruohong explained to him: "When the officials implemented the new law, they had long expected that there would be rebellion by powerful forces in various places, so they selected elite troops for training in preparation for any eventuality. These troops and horses are the new army.
The new army is not under the leadership of the Privy Council, nor is it under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. It is personally led by the officials. It can be said to be the emperor's personal army. Now the officials have dispatched the new army to my Fujian Road to quell the rebellion. Counting the time, it is almost here.
.”
After hearing this, Wang Bing felt reassured, and immediately stationed himself with Zhang Ruohong, firstly to wait for the new army to join, and secondly to prevent the rebels from wandering around, which could play a containment role.
While Wang Bing and Zhang Ruohong were talking, Cao Youwen was already marching a hundred miles west of Lianjiang County with his troops, aiming directly at Lianjiang City.
Cao Youwen had long known the movements of Wenxuan's rebels, so he came directly to suppress them.
At this time, Li Shicheng, the chief of Lianjiang County, Fujian Road, Fuzhou, under the jurisdiction of the Imperial City Department, hurriedly found Cao Youwen and reported to him Wang Zhengxing's rebellion. He also said: "Now Wang Zhengxing and Wenxuan have formed an alliance. If they want to destroy them, I am afraid that
Not easy."
Cao You heard that he ordered someone to fetch the map and looked at it carefully. Then he said without changing his expression: "It doesn't matter, it's just a few more clowns. It's easy to get it."
Li Shicheng saw that Cao Youwen did not take Wang Zhengxing and Wen Xuan seriously at all, and was worried that Cao Youwen would underestimate the enemy and miss important events.
He hurriedly reminded: "General Cao, Wenxuan and Wang Zhengxing are all locals in Fuzhou, and they have advantages over Fuzhou's personnel and geography. General, please do not underestimate the enemy, so as not to give the rebels an opportunity to grow."
"Hahaha,,,"
Cao Youwen laughed loudly and said: "Strength, do you think we are in the Three Kingdoms now? In today's world, the officials benefit the people and completely eliminate the sources of powerful soldiers. The powerful have no support from the people. Even if they show off their strength for a while, how long can they be arrogant?"
