Chapter 221: Clearly Falsely Accused (3)

A large number of people gathered outside the Wu'an County government office. Thousands of soldiers blocked both sides of the street to prevent more people from gathering at the county government office.

From a distance, Li Xun could hear loud noises and quarrels.

"Stand back, the yamen in front is doing business, no idlers are allowed to enter."

Li Xun rushed forward, but several soldiers stretched out their guns to stop him, and one soldier stepped forward to pull Li Xun off his horse.

"Go away, I am Li Xun, the governor of Wuzhou, and you dare to stop me."

Li Xun stood on his horse and shouted to reveal his identity.

"Back off."

Jiang Daxiong stepped forward on his horse and kicked away the soldier who rushed up and tried to pull Li Xun away.

"You are so brave. You dare to resist the law. Let me take it down."

The leading officer did not know Li Xun, and when he saw him taking action, he became furious. Regardless of whether he was the governor of Wuzhou or the king of heaven, he roared and ordered the arrest.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! He is really Governor Li, please don't mess around."

Feng Jiming and Li Xun were riding on the same horse. He got off the horse, rushed up, and loudly discouraged both parties from being impulsive.

The officer did not know Li Xun, but he knew Feng Jiming. After hearing what he said, he quickly stopped the soldiers who were about to rush forward, looked at Li Xun in surprise, and asked Feng Jiming: "Is he really Li Xun, the governor of Wuzhou?

"

Feng Jiming smiled bitterly and said: "I am working in the county government. How dare I make such a joke? Go and ask your general to come out and say that Governor Li is here."

"No need to invite me, I'll go see him myself."

Li Xun snorted coldly, mounted his horse and moved forward. This time, the soldiers did not dare to stop him and got out of the way.

Arriving in front of the county government, Li Xun took a look at the situation. Hundreds of people were surrounded by a large group of soldiers. The people were a little excited. Some excited people even pushed the soldiers, but the soldiers always maintained restraint.

They blocked the people and did not suppress them.

Li Xun said to Feng Jiming on the side: "Feng County Cheng, didn't you say that a fight was about to start? This situation looks pretty good!"

Feng Jiming looked over there, considered it for a while, then shook his head and said, "They are not Wang Tuyuan's soldiers."

The soldiers surrounding the people were indeed not Wang Tuyuan's people, but You Chong's soldiers. After he knew the situation here, he immediately led more than a thousand soldiers to arrive. In fact, Wu Heng gave Wang Tuyuan

His order was to forcibly disperse the people, and those who dared to resist would be immediately suppressed by force. It was You Chong who arrived in time. Under the strong persuasion of him and Zhou Qing, Wang Tuyuan and Wu Heng reluctantly agreed not to use force for the time being.

But a time limit was also given. If the people did not leave on their own within an hour, they would be punished for the crime of gathering a crowd to cause trouble and all would be arrested. Now more than half an hour has passed. Several officials from the county government have been persuading the people for a long time.

, they all said it, but the people's attitude was very firm and they would never leave until Della's sister was released.

Li Xun got off his horse and walked towards the gate of the county government office. As he walked to the door, You Chong happened to come out from inside, and the two immediately bumped into each other.

"Captain Li, why are you here?"

You Chong asked in surprise when he saw Li Xun.

Li Xun chuckled and said: "There is such a big commotion here. As the governor of Wuzhou, if I don't come, I will be derelict in my duty."

You Chong glanced at Li Xun, there was something behind his words. There was such a big commotion here, and thousands of troops were mobilized, but he, the commander-in-chief and the highest military commander of Wuzhou, had no idea about it. This is really unreasonable.

"Captain Li, before I led the troops here, I sent someone to the Governor's Mansion to report it, but it's a pity that you are not there."

Li Xun nodded. He believed what You Chong said, and there was no need to lie to himself. This was too superficial. He would know it when he went back and asked.

"General, they refuse to leave and are getting more and more agitated. What should we do?"

You Chong's deputy general ran over and reported.

You Chong said in a deep voice: "Brothers, please exercise restraint. No action is allowed without my order. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

"Yes, General."

The lieutenant general responded and did not leave immediately. Instead, he hesitated and continued: "Brothers, of course, do not dare to disobey the general's order. If the people lose control of their emotions and cannot be stopped, the most we can do is deal with them with sticks, and they will not be able to get out.

It's a big deal, but... the Lord Supervisor only gave him one hour, and that time is coming soon. If the Supervisor orders a suppression by then, there will be no problem on our side. The soldiers under Wang Tuyuan are very ruthless.

."

After saying these words, the deputy general looked at Li Xun intentionally or unintentionally.

You Chong said: "You don't have to worry about these. Your task now is to stabilize the people's emotions and prevent the situation from expanding. We will talk about it later."

After glancing at the two of them, Li Xun sneered secretly in his heart. The two of them were talking to themselves.

Li Xun said quietly: "I will handle Wu Heng's side. Without my order, if anyone dares to use force against the people, don't blame me for not being considerate of my colleagues."

Li Xun's words were very tough. You can pretend to be confused about some things, but you can't avoid some things. Li Xun has his own responsibilities and doesn't want to cause trouble, but he is never afraid of it.

"The general will never dare to disobey the orders of the governor, and the general will retire."

The deputy general bowed his hands and accepted the order to retreat.

"General You, are you ready to leave?"

"I came out to take a look at the situation. The things here have not been resolved. How can I leave in peace."

Li Xun nodded. If You Chong really had this intention, he would be somewhat responsible.

The two entered the county government office.

In the lobby of the county government, dozens of government officials were disarmed and hundreds of soldiers were under martial law. Wu Heng sat on the county magistrate's seat with a gloomy face. Next to him stood a big man covered in armor. It was Wang Tu.

Far away, below the lobby, Zhou Qing was speaking loudly and urgently.

People gathered outside and a large number of troops arrived. Zhou Qing wanted to go out to solve the problem, but Wu Heng did not allow him to go out and had to settle the case. Zhou Qing was angry and had a conflict with Wu Heng. Dozens of county government officials were killed by Wang Heng.

Tuyuan was disarmed.

"I am the magistrate of Wu'an County and the chief official here. I have the right to make independent decisions on civil cases. Although you are not the governor, you have no right to interfere. If you feel that my judgment is unfair, you can write to the court to impeach me. If it is really me

I am willing to take full responsibility for your mistakes."

Zhou Qing was extremely angry. He did not expect Wu Heng to be so overbearing and unreasonable. He failed to oppress himself with the position of governor. Instead, he exercised the power of supervising the army, mobilized the army, and forcibly interfered in local government affairs.

Wu Heng smiled coldly: "I am the governor of Wuzhou and your immediate superior. How dare you, a mere county magistrate, disobey my order?"

Wu Heng is also very young, less than thirty years old, with a pointed and gloomy face.

Li Xun stood outside the lobby for a while, listening to the two people arguing there, and he had an idea in his heart. This Wu Heng, relying on his sister to be the concubine of the King of Chu, was so domineering that he didn't take Zhou Qing into consideration at all. What kind of rules were there?

They don't talk about it, they just do whatever they want. For such a person, trying to reason with him is obviously nonsense.
