Chapter 2258 Everyone was stunned and silent
Zheng Sangge was not anxious, and neither was Shao Yunduan, because everything in Huaixi Province was quiet as usual, and everyone was still doing what they were doing, living their lives peacefully. All kinds of supplies were in good condition because they had been preparing all the time and had never relaxed.
Shao Yunduan also took An An to Jinhua City to boost morale.
Qiao Xuan was in charge of the food and fodder, and took the opportunity to take out a lot of food, cotton, and medicinal herbs from the space and mixed them in with the various supplies.
By July, Su Huai had become noticeably more impatient and irritable. His sworn brothers, who were also former pirates, were also impatient.
When everyone had nothing to do, they would get together to drink and chat, and at the end they would always start cursing Shao Yunduan, Zheng Sangge and others.
What angered Su Huai the most was that while they were fighting desperately on the front line, many people in Jiangning were still dragging their feet. Those annoying Confucian scholars and officials seemed to have caught a huge handle on them. They became excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and spoke ill of them in front of the emperor every day.
They said they were incompetent and asked the emperor to punish them and remove them...
What do those bastards who can only talk big know? Most of the emperor's territory was conquered by them.
Those bastards are reaping the benefits of their labor but are now ungrateful.
Su Huai was furious, and sent his two sons with several hundred personal soldiers back to Jiangning. Without saying a word, he captured several civil officials and beat them up. He then rushed into the mansion and smashed, looted, and threatened people, causing a huge disturbance.
The crowd was stunned and silent.
How could the officials whose homes were smashed by the Su brothers feel ashamed? They were so angry and ashamed that they cursed all the eight generations of the Su family's ancestors.
Some people were frightened by the Su brothers' brutal revenge. They were filled with resentment but dared not say anything. They could only wait and see in their hearts, believing that sooner or later they would get revenge on the Su family with interest.
As for these reckless and brainless bastards, when the emperor conquers the world and when the world is at peace, they will definitely be killed without a burial place!
Some ministers could not swallow this humiliation, so they went to the palace to cry and complain to the emperor, asking the emperor to make the decision.
How can the Su family behave like a minister by doing this? They are clearly bandits! How embarrassing it is for the ministers and the court to have such bandits in the court!
With them around, how could the real talents be willing to come and serve the emperor?
A single stone caused a thousand ripples. The ministers had long been dissatisfied with the emperor's emphasis on the Su family, and at this time they could not help but speak up and agree.
The Su family deserved it. They joined the army halfway through, and such people were naturally rejected by the original ministers. The more the emperor valued them, the more they were rejected. But they did not know how to restrain themselves, but were so arrogant that they did not take anyone seriously. How could they not arouse public anger?
No one dared to say this before, but now some people dare to say it, and many people can't help but second it.
In addition, Su Huai suffered a defeat, lost countless soldiers and generals, and consumed countless silver, money and supplies, which made people even more dissatisfied.
This damn bastard forced so many people to transport supplies and also forced oxen to transport supplies and make food, making this year's spring ploughing particularly difficult, which has long caused dissatisfaction among countless people.
If they had conquered Huaixi Province, it would have been fine. Even if they had paid such a heavy price, they could barely accept it.
