Chapter 295 Something is strange (1)

After waiting for a while, the soldiers who rushed into the room helped He Bichang out. He saw that he was covered in blood and his face was pale. If his body was not shaking, he would have looked like a dead person. Tang Feng was also shocked when he saw it and asked, "What happened to Lord He? Could it be that there was any assassin in the yamen?"

"Mr. He was not seriously injured, he was just frightened and was a little scared." A soldier replied immediately. Tang Feng frowned when he heard this. He didn't know why He Bichang was so brave, but he was so scared like this. But when he entered the room under the torch, he finally knew the problem. He Bichang was resting in the inner hall of the yamen, where He Bichang rested, there were dozens of corpses lying on them. Each of them was killed by a sharp weapon, and under the corpse, the blood had dried up. No matter who he was, when he walked into his home in the dark, he would become like this.

Tang Feng sighed and said, "Let Lord He go there to rest, and go to several people to move the bodies out, and some people go to other yamen to see if the other adults were also frightened." Immediately, someone moved and began to drag the corpses that had already been stiff.

Seeing the bodies being dragged away by someone, He Bichang slowly recovered. Then his eyes fell on a dark square that had been forced to be pried open. The muscles on his face twitched, but this time it was painful. In the dark square beside the wall, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and some jewelry he had obtained for so long, but now there was no hair. In fact, he just ignored the danger and rushed to the yamen to see if the property here had been moved. As a result, not only was he tripped by the corpse in the dark and fell to his head and bleeding, but he also found that the things he was most concerned about were gone. How could he not make him feel heartbroken?

Tang Feng also noticed the other party's eyes and saw the secret that was actually designed with great clever design. He immediately knew the other party's thoughts and felt contemptuous: "Why Bichang, as a governor in Shandong, after seeing Jinan becoming like this, he was not worried about the people and how to rebuild the city, but he was only concerned about his own selfish interests. It shows what kind of person he is on weekdays!" But at this time, he would not have an attack, because everything had been destroyed, and even if he wanted to sue them for corruption, there was no evidence. Now what Tang Feng had to do was to find out the evidence he needed from them.

Just as everyone in the hall was silent with their own thoughts, the officials were also helped back by the soldiers. Their faces were as good as He Bichang, all of them were snow-white. After seeing the situation in He Bichang, they just moved their lips and then calmed down. Tang Feng glanced at the personal soldiers who came back with them and gave a questioning look. The personal soldiers replied: "Sir, these adults were also frightened, and their mansions were filled with corpses..." When they mentioned this, the officials shivered again, obviously with lingering fear.

But Tang Feng, who already knew what He Bichang thought, was dissatisfied with their reaction. Now he could not guarantee that these officials would react so strongly because they saw the bodies. Maybe they also found that the property they had hidden was gone. After seeing that all the officials arrived, Tang Feng coughed lightly and said, "I already know what you are facing. I didn't expect that the rioters were so cruel. Please mourn me." Although I don't know how many of the people who died here were relatives of these people, as the representative of the court, Tang Feng still should say something.

After hearing Tang Feng's words, everyone also showed sad expressions, and at the same time bowed, "Thank you for your concern!" Then someone said, "Master Tang, you have to make the decision for the lower officials and others. These rioters are too cruel. They have killed so many people. This is no longer a civil chaos but a riot!"

Tang Feng nodded and said, "This official will definitely give you justice. However, the most urgent task at the moment is not these, but to restore the peace of Jinan City as soon as possible. When you entered the city, you also saw that although many shops were destroyed and the city was also broken, many people were still inside. As local parents, we must let them have a good life. Also, depending on the situation, there should not be many people in the city who died or injured in more than 100,000 people in the city. Perhaps those people escaped from the city, so I asked you to write a notice of peace and let the people who escaped from the city come back, otherwise they would become refugees and be very unfavorable to Shandong's public security. These are all things you all should do!"

Everyone did not expect that Tang Feng would be so calm after seeing such a shocking scene. He could hardly believe that this was a deployment that a young man could make. Seeing that they were all staring at him blankly, Tang Feng coughed again and said, "Why, don't you all want to atone for your merits?" Everyone nodded and responded.

Although that's the case, it was dark now and there was no hurry to do anything. Everyone was frightened and hit again, so naturally they had to rest first. Tang Feng asked them to keep their spirits in this hall, and he took people around the city to check in case there were any evil people there.

After seeing Tang Feng bringing everyone out, everyone looked at each other with anger and sadness. Someone said, "It's such a waste of time. The hard work we have earned over the past few years has been given to the rioters who killed thousands of swords. We are also carrying the name of corrupt officials. What should we do?"

"I'm still hoping to use this money to buy Lord Tang and make him excuse us. Now, there's nothing left, so why can he use to speak for us?" Many people started talking and talking. Now everyone knows that everyone's money is gone, which makes them even more hatred of the enemy and cursed the rioters. But they completely forgot why the rioters appeared.

After venting for a while, He Bichang spoke and stopped everyone, "Okay, it's meaningless to say these things now. Fortunately, our families are not in Jinan City, otherwise our losses will be even greater." It turned out that these officials had felt that the people were unstable, so they sent their families out before the chaos began. However, there were always a few concubines who were staying by their side to take care of them, so a few were a little sad. After a pause, he continued, "And Lord Tang is right, now we should atone for our sins and rebuild Jinan City, otherwise the court would not spare us."

"Then what do you want to do?" someone asked hurriedly. After Governor Bi died, the officials followed the leader of He Bichang and followed his opinions. He Bichang thought for a while and said, "Now Shandong is in chaos, and Jinan is even more like this, so other officials of the court cannot take over, so this is our only chance. As long as Shandong is restored to peace and the imperial envoy Tang speaks for us, the court may be exempted from punishment. Therefore, whether we can maintain the official status depends on whether everyone is doing their best."

Everyone thought about it and felt that what he said was reasonable. It was impossible for officials from other places to take on such a thankless mission, so they still had some use. However, some people raised their own concerns: "Mr. He, you, Is this imperial envoy Tang willing to speak for us? Now we are no longer filial to us."

"Don't worry about this. I can see that Tang Feng is a person who wants to make contributions, otherwise he would not come to Shandong. As long as we are willing to cooperate with him and let him recover Jinan smoothly, he will definitely look at us differently. And he should also know the reason for keeping the green mountains. As long as we bear his affection and are still in the same place as the official, we will naturally not forget our filial piety to him. In addition, we have never stopped our contributions to the Nine Thousand Years in recent years, and he will not watch us die, so we still have a great chance to continue to stay. Don't forget that the cause of this chaos is also a certain 'contribution' of Nine Thousand Years!" Now everyone is on the same boat, prospering and losing, so why do you have to prosper and not have too much taboos.

When the officials thought about it, they felt that what he said was very good, so they nodded, preparing to help Tang Feng with all their efforts starting tomorrow so that he could complete the hope of calming the chaos.

At this time, Tang Feng had already arrived in the middle of the city, where hundreds of corpses were piled up. Fortunately, the weather has turned cold now, so the corpses have not yet rotted, otherwise there would be no one here. Looking at these killed people, Tang Feng's eyes showed a strong anger: "It's fine if these rioters are in trouble, why have they killed so many people?"

Just when Tang Feng was angry, Zhang Wencong quickly walked to him and said to him: "Sir, our brothers checked the bodies and found some strange places. Many of these killed people were killed by people who were injured and killed by vital injuries. No matter how they looked, they didn't look like the acts of ordinary rioters."

"What?" After hearing this, Tang Feng was shocked, and at the same time he thought of the doubts he had been hiding in his heart: "Although the military preparations in Shandong are already in ruins, there will be several troops that can fight. At least the defenders of Jinan City should be able to resist the rioters. But the reality has become like this. Is there any hidden truth?" Now Zhang Wencong's words explain this even more. Is there really someone who is not an ordinary person involved?

"Who!" Just when Tang Feng was lost, Zhang Wencong suddenly shouted, and then the dozens of personal soldiers around them were ready immediately, picked up their strong bows and crossbows and pointed them at the ten people coming towards them.
