Jiading, knowing that the situation was serious, Yu Baien rushed back to the city overnight, knocked on the gate of the county government, and told his friend Tang Xiaoxian everything he found.
Tang Xiao knew about the "buying bamboo" incident a long time ago, and sent someone to investigate, but nothing was found, so he didn't take it seriously.
But when Yu Baien told him that there were a large number of religious people who bought bamboo, and there might be Manchurian spies involved, and even local Han gentry involved, Tang Xiaoxian was also in awe, and his intuition of leading troops for many years told him that something big had happened in Jiading.
"The county must immediately send troops to search the temple and those big villages, and take all the people who bought bamboo into the prison, if it is too late, let them move, I am afraid that blood will flow all over the ground."
What Yu Baien thought about the most along the way was that if it was really Manchurian spies who were secretly inciting the people of the church and the gentry who were dissatisfied with the government to rebel, then once these people were mobilized, not only Jiading would be devastated, but Songjiang and even the entire Jiangnan would be in turmoil.
This is a heavy blow to the Dingwu Imperial Court, which has just been restored for just over a year.
Jiangnan is the world's most important land of money and grain, and since ancient times, there has been no rebellion in the land of money and grain, and the Northern Expedition can restore the Central Plains.
Only by arresting all those involved before the situation deteriorates can the losses be minimized.
"Put everyone in jail" Tang Xiaoxian hesitated, noncommittal to Baien's suggestion.
The incident of the religious disturbance that had just occurred made him feel uneasy, and although it was suspicious that the temple and the big households bought bamboo, it seemed that it was a bit of a fuss to send troops to search and arrest them just because of this.
If things weren't what Bai En had imagined, then he would have stabbed the hornet's nest again.
Evidence, there must be evidence before he can take people, otherwise, the consequences may not be something that he, a small magistrate, can bear.
"That's good, I'll ask the people in the sixth room to go to Zhuangzi who has doubts one by one and ask them to understand the matter.
If they don't tell the reason, it's not too late to lock them up.
Tang Xiaoxian felt that this method was quite comprehensive, and it could avoid taking the wrong person.
Yu Baien also knew this friend's embarrassment, and thought that those parishioners would not make a rash incident in a hurry, so he didn't insist anymore.
At that moment, Tang Xiao first asked people to find the officials of the six rooms, and ordered them to go to the major Zhuangzi outside the city to inspect carefully, and they must ask why those Zhuangzi bought a large amount of bamboo.
Originally, he was going to send a catcher to the temple, but the lord Bo Ding Ladong volunteered, and the people of the temple were very disgusted with the people of the government, and the temple was a holy place in the hearts of the people.
It is better for him to go there in person, so that the people who teach the temple will not be too resistant.
Tang Xiao thought about it first, agreed to Ding Zhubo's request, and told him to be more careful, if there was anything wrong, he would come back immediately to report the news, and then the government would transfer troops to deal with it.
Lord Ding Bo responded and took only two officials to the White Crane Temple, a temple outside the city.
I never thought that after entering the White Crane Temple, Lord Ding Bo would tell his intentions in the future, and the people who taught the temple changed their faces, claiming that there was no bamboo in the temple.
Ding Zhu Bo is responsible for his duties, and he has been seen by his own eyes when he teaches the temple to buy bamboo, and he does not inspect it in the temple, so he can't go back and deal with the county honor, so he insists on inspecting it in the temple, but the people who teach the temple are extremely obstructive, that is, they are not allowed to inspect Ding Zhubo.
During the stalemate, the two officials who came with them found that dozens of parishioners suddenly poured into the temple, and the leader was Ma Dalong, a childhood friend of Ding Zhubo.
"Dalong, you came just in time, someone saw that the temple bought a large number of bamboo poles, and the magistrate called me to ask why the temple bought a large amount of bamboo."
The arrival of his childhood friend made Lord Ding breathe a sigh of relief, he knew that Ma Dalong had the position of a scripture teacher in the temple, and his status among the people was very high.
The county respected his friend Ding Juren said that it infiltrated people, but Ding Zhubo never believed that the temple would organize the people to rebel, and in the Ming generation, the temple in the south of the Yangtze River had never done anything about rebellion.
There are only more than 50,000 people in Songjiang, excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled, women and children, and there are only a few thousand young and strong.
The Manchurians were so powerful in the past, more than 100,000 people accounted for most of China, and now the Han people have been sent back to the north.
The Manchurians can't do it, and how can the people who have lived in China for 300 years be successful, so it is not believed that the people of the religion are plotting against the court and want to rebel against the imperial court.
Lord Ding Bo invited Tang Xianzun to come to the temple, and the fundamental purpose was to prove the innocence of the temple and the people.
Indeed, a few days ago, the parishioners gathered people to smash and besiege the county government in the city, but there was a reason for that, and from the beginning to the end, neither the temple nor the parishioners had ever rebelled, and it was entirely for the sake of the master to seek justice.
As for those Han people who were injured by mistake, they were just pond fish who suffered, and if you take 10,000 steps back, don't the people of the church not kill people after all?
I just thought that my friend Ma Dalong would readily agree to discuss it with the temple for himself, but I didn't want Ma Dalong to come closer, and after looking at Master Ding, he raised his eyebrows, and without saying a word, he took out a sharp knife from his arms and stabbed it into Lord Ding's chest.
"Dalong, what are you doing?"
Poor Ding Zhubo didn't believe that his childhood friend would kill him until the moment he fell.
When the two officials who came with them saw this, they were so frightened that they didn't wait for them to rush out, and a few of the parishioners stepped forward and held them down, and then you punched me and I kicked them, and they were beaten to death in the temple.
The scripture teachers of the temple looked at the atrocities in front of them, and they were all very indifferent, and no one came up to dissuade them.
"Chop up the bodies of these three people into eight pieces and throw them into the river beach to feed the fish" While wiping the blood-stained sharp knife, Ma Dalong ordered someone to drag down the bodies of Ding Zhubo and the others.
The ground was covered with blood, and the long trail of blood reached out of the temple.
When the news came, more and more parishioners came, and the temple was full of people.
Ma Dalong brought a chair, stood on it, and shouted to the people: "The Han people want to kill all our people, in order to protect the religion, we must do it immediately, otherwise, the big guys will be killed by the Han people."
Of the people who came, only a very small number of people knew about Ma Dalong's secret cooperation with the Manchurians, and the rest did not know about it, so they suddenly heard that the Han people were going to kill all the people, and some believed it, while others did not, because they had never heard of it before.
The unbelievers set their sights on the prestigious scribes, but to their surprise, the scribes all echoed Ma Dalong's statement and said that the government was going to kill all the people.
"The thief commander of the Taiping Army said that he wanted to kill all the non-Han people, our people are not Han, in their eyes they are Tatar Hulu, even if we have lived in China for hundreds of years, they do not treat us as Chinese" The support of the scribes made Ma Dalong full of confidence, and he shouted: "The Taiping army does not treat our parishioners as human beings, do you know, two years ago in Guangxi, the Taiping army killed many of our parishioners.

Our great teacher Ma Sibaba told the Taiping army to drown in the Liujiang River, and the temples in Guangxi were all demolished, and our parishioners told them to be buried alive because they refused to put a mouthful of lard on their mouths."
I don't know where Ma Dalong heard about the Taiping army's cruelty to the parishioners, and when he said it one after another, the doubtful parishioners also lost their minds, and anger occupied their brains.
Especially when they knew that the most admired master of the world's parishioners, Ma Si Baba, had also been killed by the Taiping army, the hearts of the parishioners were only filled with the anger of revenge.
"In the past, it was Guangxi, now it is Jiangnan, and in the future it will be the northwest, wherever his Taiping army goes, there is no way for me to teach the people to live and let them kill, it is better to rise up and fight" Ma Dalong succeeded in arousing the hatred of all the parishioners, and with the assistance of the priest of the monastery, all the parishioners soon reached an agreement that they must immediately take revenge on the Han Chinese.
"The Qing Dynasty has allowed our country to be a religion, and after the matter is completed, a large army will go south, and at that time, all the fields that have been taken away and the money that have been robbed will be returned."
In the end, Ma Dalong threw out the conditions promised by the Manchurians, and when they heard that the Qing army had helped, the people also had some confidence in the rebellion.
Soon, bundles of sharpened bamboo poles were carried out, and parishioners scrambled to collect the bamboo guns.
Bundles of swords were brought out, and these ordinary parishioners and emaciated ones could not receive them, but were led by the monks of the monastery and the church.
After the weapons were distributed, Ma Dalong had to lead the people to start an incident immediately, because the government had already found out about their purchase of bamboo, and if Lord Ding Bo did not return for a long time, the county would definitely be suspicious.
If you don't need to enter more, maybe some officers and soldiers will kill you.
Now, it is necessary to take advantage of the fact that the government has not yet taken action and take the lead in attacking Just as the parishioners were armed and waiting for orders, they were taken aback.
Ma Dalong summoned his wife, and Ma's wife thought that her husband should tell her to take care of her children, but she didn't want Ma Dalong to suddenly step forward and restrain his wife, strangle her with force, and strangled his wife to death in front of the people of the church.
The parishioners were stunned by this scene, and they did not understand why Ma Dalong wanted to kill his wife.
The parishioners did not understand, nor did Ma Dalong's eleven-year-old son and nine-year-old daughter, who stared blankly at their mother who had fallen in their father's arms, and were so frightened that they could not say a word.
"Come here" After throwing his wife's body on the ground, Ma Dalong turned his face sideways to stare at his children.
A pair of children trembled forward, but Ma Dalong stepped forward with an arrow, stabbed his son in the heart, and cut his daughter's neck.
Pity these two children, they couldn't even scream, so they were killed by their own father.
When Ma Dalong turned around again, that gaze made everyone look frightened.
The parishioners were all cold from the bottom of their hearts, and they were really afraid of Ma Dalong to the extreme, hating and fearing him.
