Chapter 212 Bullying Sven! It is bound to slaughter the disciples of Donglin!
Gao Shitai stood up abruptly. He didn't expect that, when he was talking to the Japanese mercenaries about the bloodbath of Xilin Academy, many scholars and villagers rushed in!
"What should we do? If we let them know that our Donglin Academy is in collusion with the Japanese, wouldn't it be notorious?"
Gu Qiyuan hurriedly asked a question.
Gao Shitai also asked all the Donglin people present with a sullen face: "Who leaked the news?!"
Donglin scholar An Xiqing replied: "This matter is difficult to investigate! As a student of Donglin, who would want to spoil the reputation of his academy like this!"
At this time, Huang Binqing and Wang Zhiren from Xilin Academy rushed in with firearms, and Cen Yong, a tenant of Gao Shitai's family, led the way.
Cen Yong first pointed at Gao Shitai, and said to Huang Binqing: "Master Shan, he is Gao Shitai!"
"Bastard! Cen Yong, how dare you call the master by his first name!"
At this time, Gao Shitai's servant Gou Renxian got angry, shouted at Cen Yong, and even slapped Cen Yong.
Cen Yong glanced at Huang Binqing.
Huang Binqing nodded.
Cen Yong therefore directly pulled the trigger of the turtledove gun at Gou Ren.
boom!
A buckshot shot directly into Gou Ren's chest.
Gou Ren fell to the ground on the spot, his face full of astonishment, he looked at Cen Yong: "You, you dare to rebel!"
As he spoke, Gou Ren sued Gao Shitai: "Master, he is our tenant! How dare he rebel!"
Gou Ren stood still after speaking.
Here, Cen Yong looked at Gao Shitai and said, "That's right, I'm a tenant of your Gao family! But don't even think about hanging me on a tree like before! I'm not your cattle and sheep, you can do whatever you want." Hit and scold!"
"It's the same with us. If you black-hearted big families don't treat us tenant farmers and long-term workers as human beings, it doesn't mean that Xilin Academy doesn't treat us as human beings!"
At this time, a large group of local villagers came out holding turtledove guns.
Gao Shitai, Gu Qiyuan and other members of the Donglin Party were ashamed.
Gao Shitai also asked Huang Binqing in a cold voice: "Huang Mingfu! As a child of a bureaucratic family, how could you start a rebellion! Give them back their firearms!"
"Why are you doing this?!"
Gao Shitai asked Huang Binqing excitedly.
He really didn't expect that Xilin Academy had already armed its tenants, these people who were usually ignored by him as human beings.
Huang Binqing smiled and said, "Because we need them to have firearms."
Boom!
Gu Qiyuan also came up against the case at this time. He who had served as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials was quite dignified, so he pointed to Huang Binqing and said: "You secretly hide firearms and gather troops privately, which is like conspiracy!"
After hearing this, Huang Binqing just smiled lightly, and then took out his waist badge: "We are from the Xichang Anti-Crafts Department, and now all the soldiers who come here are from the Xichang Anti-Crafts Department, and the firearms are from the Anti-Crafts Department's firearms depot. Crack down on traitors and thieves, and crack down on smugglers! What kind of rebellion are we? But you Donglin Academy, what’s going on, there are so many Japanese pirates in the courtyard, you Gu Qiyuan, Gao Shitai and other descendants of Jiangnan aristocratic families, Donglin Party leader, Sitting at the same table with Japanese pirates! Are you trying to collude with foreign barbarians to rebel?!"
"Folks! Take a look, these Japanese pirates who burned, killed and looted your relatives and friends not long ago will be entertained by Donglin Academy as distinguished guests!"
"He Gao Shitai, Gu Qiyuan, and this Shimadzu Shishiro had a drink at the same table! Tell me, should we interrogate them? What exactly do we want to do? Why should we flatter Japanese pirates and be willing to be lowly?!"
Wang Zhiren mobilized towards the local scholars and civilians who followed him.
"Trial! Definitely going to trial! Donglin Academy actually hid Japanese pirates privately and even held a banquet with Japanese pirates! This is obviously suspected of colluding with Japanese pirates!"
"It's no wonder that there are also Japanese pirates in Wuxi. Now that I think about it, without the help of the masters of Donglin Academy, how could the Japanese pirates come here?! Thinking about it carefully, it is really terrifying and hateful! You Donglin Academy must give an explanation to the folks! "
The villagers talked in a hurry.
At this time, Gao Shitai argued strongly: "They are not Japanese pirates! They are scholars who came from overseas, and they came to study in this institute! You must not be rude!"
When Gu Qiyuan heard Gao Shitai say this, he understood instantly, and hurriedly denied it: "That's right! They are students, not Japanese pirates, but our friends and distinguished guests. You can't be rude!"
"China has great etiquette, so it is called Xia; it has the beauty of obedience, so it is called Hua. If you rush in like this, it is really detrimental to the country's constitution and humiliating to the gentleness! You should apologize to foreigners!"
Gao Shitai also directly asked Huang Binqing and others to apologize to Shimazu Shishiro and the Japanese pirates because of this.
All the scholars and people were very angry after hearing this, and they all looked at Huang Binqing and Wang Zhiren.
Huang Binqing opened a box at this time, and saw that there were many large-value banknotes in it, so he asked Gao Shitai: "Who do these banknotes belong to, and what are they for?"
Gao Shitai put his hands behind his back and said, "No comment!"
Huang Binqing directly pointed Gao Shitai's forehead with a pistol: "You must answer!"
Gao Shitai endured his anger and replied: "It's the summer allowance we gave to the students of the Japanese country! What's the matter with you?!"
"Your long-term tenants work day and night, and you still can't get enough to eat every meal, but you can still give tens of thousands of taels of silver to the Japanese! Even if you Donglin Academy don't know Shimiao (referring to Jiajing) You should have heard about the atrocities committed by the Japanese pirates in Zhangqiao Town recently, and they treated them so favorably. Are the Japanese pirates your ancestors?! They are so filial!"
Huang Binqing asked.
"Huang Mingfu! You don't want to humiliate my Donglin group of sages so much! This is our Donglin self-raised funds to help the fame and education to promote the East! It does not violate the laws and customs of the country. As for whether the villagers are full or not, whether there is good governance in the imperial court has nothing to do with us." what relationship?!"
Gu Qiyuan scolded Huang Binqing at this moment, and also began to argue with him.
"It's okay."
Huang Binqing replied with a smile, and then said: "But your collusion with Japanese slaves has something to do with us."
Gu Qiyuan replied: "We said that these Japanese are Confucian scholars who came to study, not Japanese pirates!"
Huang Binqing asked after hearing this: "Do you have a visit certificate from the government?"
Gao Shitai naturally couldn't get it out, so he gritted his teeth and said to Huang Binqing: "Huang Mingfu! Don't bully people too much!"
"Am I cheating too much?"
Huang Binqing sneered coldly, and pointed the firecracker at Shimadzu Shishiro's forehead as he spoke: "Take out the certificate!"
This Shimazu Shishiro is very depressed now. He never expected that so many Han Chinese with live ammunition would rush in. The point is that his samurai are probably all drunk because of the banquet hosted by Donglin Academy. Lost combat effectiveness, and was controlled by these Han people.
So, now he can only reply in broken Chinese: "It's lost!"
"That's the Japanese pirates smuggling!"
Huang Binqing ordered: "Detain it, strict interrogation!"
"yes!"
Wang Zhiren responded at this moment, and ordered Shimadzu Shishiro to be detained.
"Students of Donglin, don't let them take Shimazu Shishiro away!"
At this time, Gao Shitai yelled.
So, soon many Tsing Yi scholars who were studying in Donglin Academy surrounded them and blocked the door, one after another.
Some scholars even shouted loudly: "Donglin Academy will not tolerate your nonsense!"
Seeing this, Huang Binqing couldn't help but look back at Gao Shitai: "It seems that you are bound to slaughter your Donglin disciples!"
