"Hand over the murderer!"
"The government doesn't keep its word. It allows the rebels to commit rape and plunder, and bullies me into fighting against the common people!"
"If I have any grievances to redress, I would like to ask Mr. Cui to ascend to the throne!"
Outside the Shanglan County Government Office, thousands of people crowded on the streets outside the Government Office. They pointed excitedly at the yamen gate and cursed or shouted endlessly. However, at the entrance of the yamen office, there were only less than ten yamen servants guarding the gate tremblingly. Beside the door, everyone's face was pale, and many of the government officials' legs were shaking uncontrollably, making them extremely miserable.
"My lord, there is too much chaos ahead. General Qi Rongmo will lead his troops to suppress it first."
Seeing the chaos ahead, how could Zhao Yun dare to let Gongsun Ming step forward and take danger? He quickly rushed to Gongsun Ming's side and made a anxious suggestion.
"It doesn't have to be like this, I have my own opinion!"
When he was a civil servant in his previous life, Gongsun Ming had participated in handling mass incidents, so he would not be aware of the risks of suppression. If he is not careful, not only will he not be able to calm down the incident, but it will also create an uncontrollable threat. Once things break down, he will If he wanted to win over the people, he would undoubtedly have to spend countless efforts. Because of this, he would not agree to Zhao Yun's suggestion. He reined in the horse and stopped at a distance of more than 200 steps from where the crowd gathered. .
"Buzz..."
Although there was a huge crowd outside the county government office, the arrival of Gongsun Ming and his group of more than 200 riders was so loud that it was impossible not to be alarmed. When countless people looked back in surprise, the commotion immediately broke out. .
"Gongsun Ming is here. If you have any grievances, tell yourselves. I will make the decision for you."
In order to handle mass incidents safely, the key is to suppress the situation from the beginning. Otherwise, there will be a danger of collapse. Gongsun Ming is well aware of this, and does not wait for the crowd's turmoil to subside. Bianji drank loudly and loudly, and the sound was like thunder, which immediately shocked the people in the chaos into silence.
"The military master doesn't give me money for meals, and he is also disrespectful to the women of the people. He really bullies my people too much."
The people had just calmed down, and before Gongsun Ming could continue to say anything, an insidious sound suddenly rang out from the crowd, and it was like a stone being thrown into a pond, causing a chaotic discussion in an instant.
"quiet!"
Before the chaos got out of control, Gongsun Ming raised his hand and shouted in a cold voice, overwhelming the entire audience with the power of one person.
Since ancient times, it has been a wise saying that the people should not fight with the officials. It is wrong unless they are desperate. The people of the Han family are undoubtedly the most kind people. Of course, there are exceptions, and that is when they are bewitched by others and do not blame others in accordance with the law. Chinese people always like to join in the fun, but when it comes to facing authority, they are often so frightened that they don’t know what to do. The situation in front of them is undoubtedly like this. No, Gongsun Ming burst out with a thunderbolt, All the people were stunned in awe.
"Now that I am here, I will naturally give an explanation to my fellow villagers. However, the truth must be clarified in the end before we can judge according to law. If everyone gathers a crowd like you and others to cause trouble, how can I ask this general to investigate the case? Is it possible that you and others should not The truth is, just thinking about causing chaos won’t work, eh?”
You have to strike while the iron is hot. Before the people could recover, Gongsun Ming shouted unceremoniously, causing all the people to take a few steps back uncontrollably.
"All the village elders and pavilion elders must stand up. Whether they are wronged or not, I, the general, will be able to tell clearly!"
Although he had suppressed the situation, Gongsun Ming still did not dare to be careless in the slightest, and he shouted again.
"Don't listen to him, this beast is going to kill someone."
When Gongsun Ming gave such an order, all the eyes of the common people were naturally focused on the village elders and pavilion chiefs. They were obviously counting on the respected village elders to withstand Gongsun Ming's pressure. Come on, all the village elders were a little bit out of breath. After looking at each other for a moment, they were all ready to move forward, but unexpectedly, a sinister voice suddenly sounded from the crowd. .
"A bold thief who dares to slander my general, Zilong, go and capture that deer-headed man in yellow!"
Even though the man who made the talk was hidden deep in the crowd, Gongsun Ming had already been paying attention to the direction of the hiding place, and when he started to utter confusing words again, Gongsun Ming immediately identified the person who told the lies. Who is it, how could he tolerate his messing around over and over again?
"Get out of the way!"
Zhao Yun was actually observing the movements of the crowd before, but his observation ability was not as good as Gongsun Ming's, and he did not immediately spot the guy hiding his head and tail. But now with Gongsun Ming's direction, Zhao Yun could not help but After being polite, he turned over and dismounted, leading a dozen guards and strode into the crowd. At this time, the common people who were afraid of getting involved with the man in yellow robe quickly retreated, and even if they did, they would The man in yellow shirt with a worried face was isolated.
"What are you going to do? Don't mess around, kill people, kill people..."
Seeing Zhao Yun and others rushing towards him, the man in yellow shirt was immediately frightened. While shouting in a panic, he turned around and tried to jump into the crowd. Unfortunately, his movements were too slow and he was caught. Surrounded by all the guards, he was twisted out of the crowd without any resistance.
"I say it again, all the village elders and pavilion elders will come out immediately, the person who first reported the matter will come out, and the person who provided the circumstantial evidence will come out. If a certain song has five fingers, if it is not late, it will be punished with the crime of disobedience!"
Gongsun Ming didn't pay any attention to the begging and yelling of the man in yellow shirt. He raised his right hand high, stretched out his five fingers, and shouted loudly again.
"The common people are waiting to see General Gongsun."
As Gongsun Ming's five fingers curled up one after another, the village elders, pavilion chiefs, suffering masters, witnesses and others no longer dared to delay, and walked out of the crowd one after another. After saluting in confusion, they all knelt down. fell to the ground.
"Come on, go, call Shanglan County Magistrate Cheng Gao to come here immediately and get documents and other items. I, the general, will review the case here!"
Gongsun Ming ignored the village elders and pavilion chiefs who were kneeling on the ground. He retracted his raised arms and gave two orders in a cold voice. Soon, he saw a dozen personal guards who agreed and marched in line with the crowd. After entering the yamen, after a short while, I saw a middle-aged official walking out of the yamen with a look of fear on his face. This man was Cheng Gao, the magistrate of Shanglan County, who was from Taiyuan, Bingzhou. He had served under Gongsun Zan in his early years. After passing the clerkship, he was highly appreciated by Gongsun Zan for his outstanding writing skills and was promoted to the magistrate of Shanglan County. He has been in office for the Western Year.
