But Song Gongwen didn't say anything, not even a rebuttal, as if nothing had happened.
This made the gentry a little puzzled. You know, when he was in Longyang Prefecture before, the father-in-law of the emperor used very tough methods and directly arrested a large number of people. What happened now?
Does this person have a backup plan?
But after careful consideration, the nobles felt that this was unlikely.
Because he did not have any handle in Song Gongwen's hands. After all, the other party had been in the capital before, remotely implementing the reforms in Jiangnan.
Even if I wanted to do something, it wouldn't be possible.
In this way, time passed by little by little.
Wei Yunyi still stayed in the alchemy room.
Looking at the news that came in, I also realized that the nobles seemed to be getting more and more violent.
In his heart, he was also estimating that he would be able to go out and clean up the mess in a few days.
What he was thinking was that by taking advantage of the commotion of the gentry, not only would the court be shaken, but when he came forward, he could take advantage of the situation and stop the reform.
By then, the fortune of the Great Wei will inevitably be hit.
The more tyrant values you can get, the more you will have.
only.
Wei Yunyi, who had never left the alchemy room, didn't know.
On this day, Song Gongwen finally took action.
After a period of indulgence, more and more officials stood on the side of the gentry and began to prevent the reform.
But after that, no more people showed up.
He knows.
Now is the best time to strike against the nobles.
Because everything that should come out has come out.
So early in the morning of that day, the people, officials, and gentry in the capital discovered that Song Gongwen had left his mansion and taken a carriage directly to Jingzhao Prefecture.
Not long after, hundreds of yamen runners came out of Jingzhao Prefecture and lined up in neat rows.
Then, at Song Gongwen's command, everyone took action.
Next, the entire capital was shaken.
Because the targets of these Jingzhao Prefecture officials were the Jiangnan gentry.
In less than an hour, the yamen runners went to various places in the capital and arrested all the gentry.
No one knows what happened.
The captured nobles felt that Song Gongwen was desperate and accused him of arresting people indiscriminately.
Even some officials who supported the gentry came over and asked why people were being arrested.
The laws of the Wei Dynasty are strict, and even the second-in-command cannot act recklessly.
So they are very confident.
But Song Gongwen responded with only one sentence, that is, some people from the Jiangnan gentry colluded with the Baiyi Sect and fanned the flames to obstruct the implementation of national policies. They have committed heinous crimes and should all be sent to the Ministry of Justice!
As soon as this statement came out, the entire capital was shocked.
Those officials who protect the gentry.
Everyone was confused.
Obstructing the implementation of national policies is a relatively easy crime to deal with, depending on how it is explained.
But colluding with the White Robe Sect made them afraid.
Because of this sin.
It's tantamount to treason!
