Chapter 323 Kill one to warn a hundred (1)

"I found out that there is Shandong Governor Bi Qian, and the governor, He Bi Chang, the governor of Jinan Hai Jingping, is trusted by the court and has shepherded the people. However, he does not want to serve the country and the people. He only knows how to plunder money and bully good, causing sudden chaos in Shandong. Now all the investigations have been made, in order to calm the public's anger, the three people were specifically guilty of these three people. Bi and Hai have died at the hands of the rioters, but He is still there, and he should make it clear and punish the people for their grievances..." Then there were dozens of serious crimes committed by Bi, He, Hai and others. Any one of them was enough to kill these three people.

The notices filled with words were posted by the soldiers to conspicuous places in Jinan City. Although the people did not recognize words at this time, such a sensational story spread very quickly. In just half a day, Jinan City had already been heard of, and even the prefectures and counties outside had heard of it. The people also began to discuss the truth and falsehood of the matter:

"What? Is the imperial envoy sent by the court really going to kill Lord He?"

"No? The notice has been posted, and there is still a fake one? I heard that it also wrote about time, and at noon three days later, the head of this corrupt official will fall to the ground."

"This is really God's eyes. We have been angry but not speaking for so many years. Finally, we have been waiting for this day. It turns out that as long as we are an official, they only know that officials and officials are helping them bully us ordinary people. But I didn't expect that this envoy Tang Qin dared to do this. It's really the blue sky in the world!"

"Who said no? Now many families are already thinking about buying firecrackers. When the time comes, they can celebrate and get rid of these corrupt officials. We ordinary people will have a lot of life."

In addition to these very excited remarks, some voices were also disharmonious: "I think this is just to block our people's mouths. The court saw that the matter was getting big and just found a scapegoat to relieve the people. You should know which official in Shandong is not a corrupt official who is not a bad-hearted person? Why did he just launch such three?"

Some people have different opinions about this kind of remark: "You can't say that. After all, the court took action this time, and the convicted local officials were still second-rank local officials, which shows the determination of the imperial envoy Tang. Moreover, since the fault of the governor and the prefect was pointed out, they were the ones who died, and they should be able to let us go."

Many different remarks were spread among the people and soon spread to the governor's yamen. At this time, Tang Feng was talking to Lu An and others. Lu An said with a worried look: "Sir, are you too hasty to do this? The dead Bi and Hai are okay, but why are Bichang also a second-rank official from the court? If someone makes a fuss about this, it will be very unfavorable to you. Do you think you will report to the court first and execute him after the court's clear text?"

Tang Feng shook his head and said, "No, this matter has spread to Jinan and to the prefectures and counties in Shandong. I represent the emperor. How can I go back on my word? I know he is a second-rank official, and even if the emperor wants to convict him of his death, he has to think about it again. But now is a special period, and we must be impatient to follow the power. If I don't use this method to appease the people, who can guarantee that they will not be instigated and do excessive behavior again? What's more, the current court is not the court that once followed the rules. Even eunuchs can claim to be nine thousand years old. The appointment and removal of officials was made by eunuchs. What's the point of concern for me?"

Seeing that Tang Feng had made up his mind, Lu An stopped persuading anything and had to say, "Sir, you have to write a memorial to explain the matter clearly. After all, he is a second-rank local official and can't die in a daze."

"I have already thought about this. Once a person is killed, I will be like what Beijing has submitted a matter. I will take action first and then report to eliminate all possible obstacles." Tang Feng smiled. He knew that Lu An was considering his future, but at this time he could only care about the present moment and have no time to take care of anything else. As for the criticism that would arouse in the future, Tang Feng didn't care about it at all. He could commit himself to the eunuch party in order to accomplish great things. Are he still afraid of being said a few words?

After two days of anticipation and worry, on November 15, this highly anticipated day finally arrived. On November 15, it is advisable to travel far away and seek official positions; avoid: breaking ground and litigation.

On this day, the sky was gloomy and there was no sunshine, which made the already very cold weather even colder. If there was not such a big show today, the people would rather stay at their homes to rest. But just because everyone knew that such a big man would be killed today, basically everyone rushed to the south gate and waited to see the rare second-rank official beheaded.

When the time was just late Chen Shi, the road to the south gate was full of people with head-on and excited faces. After waiting for nearly half an hour, a prison car was shut with a man wearing a white prison suit and long hair, and appeared in front of everyone. He Bichang was finally taken. When everyone saw this one of the culprits who made many people unable to live, they all rewarded and cursed the corrupt official who had harmed them, and at the same time threw away the things that had been held for a long time.

Go. There were smelly chickens and duck eggs, some cabbage gangs, soil, stones, and even some people even smashed a bag of tightly packed feces. After a while, He Bichang was bruised and swollen, and he exuded a disgusting smell. However, his face was confused, as if he had no consciousness. This made the people who were still shouting loudly. At least the beatings would move and avoid it. What happened today?

When He Bichang knew that he would be killed in front of everyone, he completely lost his former aura and even lost his reaction. Although he had been splashed with dirty water before, he was not so desperate. He always thought that at most he was just dismissed from his post and went home. But who would have thought that someone would prepare a sumptuous meal for him early this morning, and then he knew that the time was coming.

"Why? I am a second-rank governor of the court. How dare he kill me before I get the intention of the cabinet and the emperor?" He Bichang, who understood the regulations of the court, quickly shouted this sentence. But the answer to him was only a few cold words: "The evil is full of evil, so it should be rewarded!" Then he became completely numb and lost his mind.

On one side of the newly built wooden platform, Tang Feng and several other officials in Jinan City sat. Except for Tang Feng's calm expression, everyone else looked pale. They never thought that such a situation would happen, and that He Bichang would be executed so soon. Of course, they did not feel wronged or regretful for Bichang's death, but because they were afraid of seeing his fate and felt sad.

If they hadn't pulled He Bichang out immediately that day, and said that they would kneel in front of them, and the person with a blank look on their faces would be themselves. Thinking of this, several officials felt sweating again on their backs. Although the environment they were in is very cold now, the north wind was still blowing.

It was the first time Tang Feng was a prison officer, but he still made sufficient preparations before the murder according to the knowledge he had asked from others before. Then he took a fire sign with the word "Zhunting", looked at the sky, and asked the people around him, "It should be almost the same time, right?"

The officials nodded quickly and said, "Not bad, it's three o'clock in the afternoon."

After checking the identity of the criminal and confirming that he was He Bichang, Tang Feng picked up his pen, ticked the big word "Slay", and then threw it towards the ground: "Slay!"

"Tang Feng, if you kill the second-rank official, the court will not spare you!" Seeing the executioner coming to him and being shaken by the ghost-headed sword in his hand, He Bichang suddenly woke up and shouted loudly. But this could no longer stop the executioner's movements. He saw that he took off the waiting-to-kill license plate on He Bichang's back with a flash, and then waved the huge ghost-headed sword with a cold light.

"I will not let you go even if I become a ghost..." When the knife fell on his head and neck, He Bichang shouted out the last sentence of his life.

"Puchi!" The head was chopped off by a skilled executioner, and He Bichang's body fell on the wooden platform, and blood quickly flowed everywhere. Almost at the same time, there were cheers among the people around him, shaking the world. At the same time, firecrackers used only during the New Year and the holidays were also lit and set off.

Tang Feng sighed in his heart. In fact, killing people is not his original intention, but in order to calm down the chaos in Shandong as soon as possible, he must use some extraordinary means. However, the two beheading officials around him were full of fear. Obviously, the shout he made before he died still scared them.

"Hang his body on the top of the city and let it be exposed to the wind and sun, and it must not be collected!" After the noise, Tang Feng said something that surprised everyone again. You must know that it was a big deal to die without a burial place at that time. However, neither officials nor the people dared nor were willing to raise objections.

Tang Feng did not finish his words: "It would be too cheap to kill him with such a tragedy that harmed the country and the people with just one knife. If it were to be in Taizu, he would have been skinned long ago. He would never repent until he died, and he still wanted to turn into a ghost to take revenge. I would make him unable to even be a ghost!"

Everyone looked at the murderous envoy of the imperial envoy and suddenly felt that they had always underestimated this young man, especially those officials who were mixed with the people and who saw He Bichang being executed, their faces changed drastically.

The body was quickly hung on the south gate of Jinan City. In this way, everyone was no longer afraid of He Bichang's ghost. You should know that Nan Nai is a place of yang, and when he died it was three o'clock in the afternoon, the most masculine moment. When the two yangs were combined, no one could do anything to harm him...
