Chapter 869: What a Killer!
"It's three quarters past noon. Execution!"

The next day.

In Songjiang Prefecture, at the execution ground where a huge crowd of people was surging, a shout was heard, and the people who were watching were all excited. This was a real killing! !

Former prefect of Songjiang Prefecture.

Former Tongzhi of Songjiang Prefecture.

Former Songjiang Prefecture...

The crowd that was stopped outside the execution ground by a group of armored warriors, when they saw the corrupt officials they were familiar with being tied up and taken to the execution ground one by one, blood instantly rushed to their heads.

"Kill these bastards!"

"Give back my son's life!!"

"Kill them!!"

Faced with the angry people of Songjiang Prefecture, the soldiers responsible for maintaining order were extremely vigilant, as if facing a great enemy, fearing that someone would rush out and disrupt the order of the execution ground.

"Yan Futai, otherwise just execute him by firing squad."

On the execution ground, Wang Zhiren, who saw this scene, frowned and said to Yan Yingyuan, "It's too fast. There are too many people's grievances. If we kill them one by one, there will be accidents."

"If this bunch of traitors is not put to death, it will not be enough to vent the people's anger!!"

Yan Yingyuan said coldly, "These people must be executed by lingchi. Everything should be done as planned. If this matter is not handled well, Songjiang Prefecture will not be able to restore order."

Wang Zhiren remained silent.

But when he saw the surging crowd, he felt anxious.

Right now, executions are being carried out not only in Songjiang Prefecture, but also in the counties under its jurisdiction. Yesterday, the Songjiang Garrison Commander's Office launched a roundup, catching all the corrupt officials, evil gentry and unscrupulous businessmen in Songjiang Prefecture in one fell swoop, which caused quite a stir in Songjiang Prefecture.

Many people in Songjiang Prefecture, especially scholars, were shocked. Why did the new prefect of Songjiang dare to do this?

Isn’t he afraid of trouble in Songjiang?

at that time.

In a private room of a restaurant near the execution ground.

"Does he really dare to kill him? Would he find someone to replace him?"

At the window, Xu Fuyuan tightly grasped his folding fan. He looked past the surging crowd and stared at the heavily guarded execution ground. He said nervously, "If he really kills me, Songjiang Prefecture will be greatly shocked, and even Nanzhili will be alarmed."

"The person who was arrested is right."

Peng Bin on the side frowned and said, "It's those people, but..."

"The torture has begun!!"

But before Peng Bin could finish his words, a scream was heard from the window of the private room next door. Xu Fuyuan and the others looked and saw a bloody scene.

"啕~"

There were many sounds of vomiting in this restaurant.

“What a murder!!”

I don't know where the exclamation came from, which expressed the thoughts of countless people. No one thought that Yan Yingyuan, who was ordered to go south, would be so cruel. The arrested officials were not even interrogated. They were arrested yesterday and killed today. This is simply unbelievable!

When the news first spread, many educated people did not believe it, thinking that Yan Yingyuan was putting on a show to appease the boiling public resentment in Songjiang Prefecture.

Therefore, all the seats in the restaurants and teahouses around the execution ground were snapped up. The best seats, those with a clear view of the execution ground, were even more expensive.

Yan Yingyuan, who was appointed as the prefect of Songjiang, had no intention of paying attention to these things. Perhaps these things did not even enter his heart.

Right now, what Yan Yingyuan needs to consider is how to appease the people of Songjiang Prefecture, maintain order in Songjiang Prefecture, and ensure that Songjiang Prefecture can seize opportunities in the crisis during the turmoil in the southeast, and not only assist the Joint Office for Suppressing Japanese Pirates to resolve some of the pressure, but also develop a plan to open up the sea.

"If Songjiang Prefecture is like this, what about Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Huguang and other places?"

Yan Yingyuan was sitting on a high platform. When he saw a group of corrupt officials being tortured to death by slicing, the crowd of onlookers became even more excited. Yan Yingyuan even saw extremely ferocious expressions. At this moment, fear arose in Yan Yingyuan's heart.

He was afraid that if this so-called campaign to pacify the Japanese invaders failed to completely eliminate those treacherous villains and evil spirits, what kind of situation would the southeastern provinces of the Ming Dynasty face?

"what!!!"

“Sell me the meat!!”

“Don’t push!!”

"The sky has eyes!!"

Various sounds echoed in Yan Yingyuan's ears, and it was precisely these sounds that made Yan Yingyuan's eyes become more determined.

The scene before he left Beijing appeared in front of Yan Yingyuan.

"Mr. Yan, after much consideration, I still think your family is the most suitable to take on this heavy responsibility of Songjiang Prefecture."

In Xiyuan, Zhu Youxiao summoned Yan Yingyuan. His expression was very serious. "The situation in the southeast is far more complicated than the government and the public think. There are too many dirty things to clean up there."

"If we want to solve this problem properly, there is no other way except bloodshed. At least I have thought of all the ways, and the only effective one is to replicate Liaodong!"

"Japanese pirates, haha, it's ridiculous that some people think they can keep using this self-deceiving rhetoric."

"Okay, since they want to use it, then I will grant their wish. I have made up my mind. If the Japanese rebellion in Zhejiang cannot be suppressed in one year, then it will take two years, or at most three years. I will continue to play with them."

"But some things need to be done in advance. The court cannot be too passive. Songjiang is the key point in the big game of southeast. I need you to go and open up Songjiang for me and the Ming Dynasty!!"

At that time, Yan Yingyuan did not understand what the emperor meant by these words, but today on the execution ground, Yan Yingyuan understood.

The emperor wants Southeast to be reborn from the ashes!
Yes.

The turmoil in the southeast is bound to affect innocent people, and many people may even die tragically in this turmoil. But instead of living like a walking corpse, allowing others to exploit and oppress them without seeing any hope, it is better to take a chance in the turmoil, just in case you can change your fate?
Songjiang Prefecture was one of the areas that Zhu Youxiao planned to absorb.

Leave the fighting to the military generals.

The affairs of governance should be left to civil officials.

During this process, various deployments in the southeast were assigned to people with respective responsibilities. This was the best solution Zhu Youxiao could think of to solve the problem in the southeast.

In order to promote this situation, Zhu Youxiao started making moves very early, especially sending a group of civil and military officials to serve in various places. Under relatively peaceful circumstances, perhaps nothing could be seen, but when turmoil broke out in the local areas of the Ming Dynasty, their importance would be highlighted.

Among them, the one Zhu Youxiao had the highest hopes for was Lu Xiangsheng, who controlled the army of Emperor Mingzong. The Ming Dynasty needed a king of hell who came from a civil service background, and Lu Xiangsheng happened to be him.

In order to completely clean up the southeast, Zhu Youxiao had endured for a long time, but now he couldn't endure it anymore. The center was under his control, and the north was stable. Even if the southeast was really going to be in chaos, then let it be. However, Zhu Youxiao believed that the group of civil and military officials he promoted would not let him down! !
