Ming Zuo

Chapter 699

Fang Yuegong's invitation has arrived, but Xu Ji and the others still haven't made up their minds.

Seeing this, Xu Erjue became more and more anxious and unbearable.

He looked at Wang Ruixian.

"Mr. Wang, how should we deal with this matter?"

Wang Ruixian was very calm.

"We have to go to this invitation, otherwise we will lose our promise. Since we are going to fight, we must fight thoroughly. We must let everyone in the world understand. We are righteous. We can't lose the public opinion of the people in the world. "

Pan Xiaona beat her chest and stamped her feet.

"I'm afraid this is a Hongmen banquet. If we go, it will be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth."

Wang Ruixian's eyes were full of teasing.

"Who is the sheep and who is the tiger is not certain."

He looked at Xu Ji.

"Mr. Xu, the government office and his party, I will accompany you personally. Please rest assured, with Wang around, no one in the world can hurt a single hair of your hair."

Such domineering words made everyone in the Songjiang Mansion look sideways, and they really didn't know what his confidence was.

But things have come to this, there is no other way.

After discussing with everyone, Xu Ji and Pan Yunlong led the way to the magistrate's yamen together with several shareholders.

Wang Ruixian brought five people with him.

Before leaving, he pointed to one of Xu Erjue's men.

Xu Erjue understood, and immediately asked the man for advice after everyone left.

"Director Li, what should we do?"

The person left behind by Wang Ruixian is called Li Chongtian, who has a dual identity, both from the intelligence department and the training department.

"Second Young Master, don't worry, we have already done a one-piece response."

Xu Erjue, Pan Xiaona and others finally found the backbone and waited quietly for Li Chongtian's orders.

Li Chongtian first said: "Immediately send someone to watch outside the magistrate's yamen, and if something happens, come back and report immediately."

Xu Erjue quickly sent someone to go.

The Xu family is a wealthy family in the Songjiang Mansion, so it is easy to inquire about news in this area.

After arranging this, Li Chongtian took everyone all the way to the backyard of Xu Mansion.

A remote courtyard was always guarded, and today the gate finally opened.

Seeing the wooden boxes being moved out one by one, Xu Er felt his blood welling up.

"Do you really need to do it?"

While prying open the box, Li Chongtian said: "We can't pin our fate on other people's ideas. If the government wants to fight, then we will fight to the end. We have Shandong support behind us, and the final victory must belong to us. "

Those from Shandong have the most resolute attitude.

Because they have witnessed too many victories in Shandong, in their minds, there is no opponent in the world.

Although Songjiang Mansion is far away from Shandong, plans have already been made for the changes here.

Now that the news has been sent back, the Shandong army will definitely arrive in Songjiang in about a month.

The military equipment in the south of the Yangtze River in Ming Dynasty was slack, Li Chongtian didn't think the officers and soldiers here would be of any use.

Inside the box was no surprise that it was full of various firearms.

In order to prevent accidents, during the many transactions with Songjiang Mansion, Shandong has been transporting weapons here, all of which are piled up in Xu Mansion.

Now that something has happened, these weapons come in handy.

A total of [-] muskets and two rifles were distributed to everyone under the auspices of Li Chongtian.

People from the Xu Mansion and the Pan Mansion all chose trustworthy ones, and they had practiced a long time ago.At this time, the musket is in hand, so there is no need to worry about being unable to use it.

Looking at this small musketeer team, everyone in Songjiang Mansion had more or less confidence.

They couldn't be more clear about the virtues of Songjiang Mansion's military equipment.

To say that those things are soldiers, it is better to say that they are street gangsters.

Fighting against such an army, maybe these servants will be even better.

I just don't know if Fang Yuegong has any other follow-up means?
Inside the magistrate's yamen, the atmosphere was tense from the very beginning.

"Recently, I want you to know. Countless local people lost their families because of what you did. This is a tragedy in the world. In view of this, the government has decided to ban all kinds of textile factories from today, so as to give life to the people. I also hope that everyone will obey the overall situation, do good deeds, never forget righteousness for profit, and be self-destructive in the world."

Xu Ji and others didn't expect that Fang Yuegong would be so decisive as soon as he came up, leaving no room for change.

"Lord Fang, now textile factories are blooming everywhere in Songjiang, and everyone makes a living from this, sincerity is the lifeline of all people. My lord is biased, do you want to make the people of Songjiang die without a place to bury them?"

Xu Ji asked loudly, not intending to be polite anymore.

In any case, he couldn't figure out why Fang Yuegong hated the textile factory so much.

From the perspective of the locals, Fang Yuegong is actually a good official.

He is as clean as water, diligent in governing and caring for the people, cleaning up the market, severely punishing lawbreakers, and diligently repairing various projects to benefit the people.

It is in the matter of textile factories that we must kill them all.

Obviously this is a move that benefits the country and the people.

The prosperity of Songjiang Prefecture today can be said to be due to the great contribution of the textile factory.

As a local official, Fang Yuegong can rely on his political achievements to make his way to the top. Why did he destroy the Great Wall himself?
Fang Yuegong's answer told him the answer.

"Since ancient times, it has been the right way for men to farm and women to weave, to live and work in peace and contentment. You and other merchants wantonly talk about profit, chase money and chase bad things, so that people's hearts are not old, and society is in a state of turmoil. I am responsible for enlightenment, how can I allow you to corrupt the norms? "

Pan Yunlong couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, Mr. Fang, how can you deceive us and other insightful people with such self-deceiving words? There is no such reason in the world to hate the people for profit."

Fang Yuegong was very stubborn.

"The debate between profit and righteousness has long been settled. How can your fallacious theories deceive the wise people in the world? If you continue to be stubborn, don't blame the official's thunderbolt methods."

Knowing that they couldn't reach an agreement, Xu Ji and others were secretly annoyed.

Why didn't you follow the advice of Xu Erjue and others, and insisted on coming here?
"Since Mr. Fang is determined to go his own way, and the disabled people will succeed, let's see how the government ends."

Fang Yuegong was full of anger, and his eyes narrowed dangerously.

"Are you really not going to wait?"

Xu Ji cupped his hands, not giving an inch.

"Although we are penniless, we are responsible for the livelihood of thousands of people in Songjiang Mansion. Naturally, we bear in mind the principle that the people are the most precious, so it is difficult to obey."

Fang Yuegong slapped the table.

"Xu Ji, your son-in-law plotted rebellion in Shandong, and the court did not take you to justice, which is an extrajudicial favor. Now you are still obsessed with obsession, do you still have your father's court in your heart?"

Xu Ji let out a long breath.

It was only at this moment that he finally fully understood what Zuo Menggeng said about the class division.

"The people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least. Mr. Fang, your book is not good enough."

Fang Yuegong never expected that Xu Ji would use Confucianism to refute himself, and he would not hesitate to stab him in the heart.

"Fang Mou is loyal to the emperor and serving the country, even though he will die a hundred times without regret. Others are afraid of your son-in-law's mighty army, but Fang Mou has a tough body and would rather break than bend."

He finally had a showdown.

"Come here!"

Outside the hall, the sound of chaotic footsteps came one after another.

Immediately, the hall door was knocked open, and dozens of soldiers were seen holding swords, obviously premeditated for a long time
Fang Yuegong was very proud of his arrangement.

"Today, I arrested you first, and then burned down the factories and destroyed the machines. The people of the world will return to peace. Only in this way can the great Ming Dynasty be saved."
