With the overwhelming advantage, the two anti-rebels, with the cooperation of the garrisons of each county, took only two or three days to resist the rich gentry who refused to accept punishment, and sealed up important property. A few days later, as a large number of evidence and the victims set off under the escort of the Ming army, the prison officials and their assistants who temporarily borrowed the territory and signs of the prefect's office to carry out the criminal prison work began.

Before returning to the capital, Chen Wen conducted a sub-examination of the rebels who had just captured in Dongyang County. He did not participate in the massacre of the villages around the Coolie Camp. He had a good attitude of confessing guilt and was willing to expose and report other rebels and was directly imprisoned. When the trial was over, they continued their career in Coolie's life with a certain period of punishment. As for those who were infected with blood debts, depending on the situation, from Lingchi, dismemberment, hanging, beheading to hard labor that cost more than ten, dozens, or even hundreds of years, this would be their future destiny.

It is the easiest to kill directly, but in recent years, the population of Jinhuafu has dropped sharply, and the increase in labor service is increased. "No Wrong" novel will only cause bandits to rise up, which is not conducive to rule. Therefore, it is more beneficial for Chen Wencai to let them replace the people in the coolie camp and die in various projects. Of course, those with outstanding performance can receive certain rewards, such as food, rest, or reducing the departure time. They must always give them a little hope to squeeze out more surplus value.

This work was completed during Chen Wen's time in Dongyang County. The death row prisoners were transported to the capital city, while the others were sent to the rebuilt coolie camp. Only those who originally belonged to the Luochengyan Baitou Army were directly beheaded to public to deter potential opponents.

When he returned to the capital, due to Chen Wenling, Ma Jinbao and the quelling rebels' offensives in various counties, a large number of wealthy gentry came to seek their visit and expressed their loyalty in various ways to prevent the angered Chen Wen from colluding with the Qing Dynasty or Cao Conglong.

Food, gold and silver, cloth, various raw materials, household slaves' body sales contracts, etc., and even sent their children from their respective tribes to serve as hostages in the army. What's more, they found out that Chen Wen had not yet married and took concubines, and they all had ideas in this regard. For a time, there was no resistance to the execution of the aftermath loan. Even the large loan for the conquest that was criticized not long ago and almost no one was interested in became lively, which finally made up for the economic losses Chen Wen suffered.

But, that's not enough!

When Chen Wen defeated Cao Conglong again and captured him alive, he heard that Han Qizheng, who had restored his position as a co-magistrate of Jinhua Prefecture, took the criminal prosecutors selected by Chen Wen and Sun Yu to start the public trial, and the location was chosen in the government office.

The cases that need to be tried are mainly divided into two major parts: the first is rebellion, and the second is the group training area.

Cao Conglong's identity is not suitable for trial, but Chen Wen never considered letting him go, so the part about the rebellion starts from the details, pours out all the crimes committed by the participants of the rebellion, and finally points directly to Cao Conglong. The group training occupation is sorted according to the degree of damage caused to increase the intensity of the punishment.

Before Chen Wen returned to the city, the interrogation of the lower-level officials, craftsmen, soldiers of Fubiao camp and other people who participated in the rebellion in the city had finished their interrogation. There were several houses of evidence of crimes. By the day after Chen Wen returned to the city, the interrogation work had entered the next stage.

Today, the interrogation was conducted by several major officials of the former Military Equipment Division. They had earlier affiliation and caused great harm. The minor officials and craftsmen below also provided a large amount of personal and physical evidence for concealing military equipment production, providing equipment for the rebels, interfering with technological changes, and even shelling the arsenal. Today, we will use those who have obtained more confessions from them to further restore the entire process of the rebellion.

The first person to be taken up was a civil servant in the Military Equipment Department. Chen Wen knew him very early. When he was training troops on Dalan Mountain, the training facilities needed were installed by this civil servant with craftsmen and civilians. Later, the original construction department was reorganized into the Military Equipment Department, and he began to be responsible for the affairs of the Military Equipment Department's wooden workshop. He has always done very well. Such capable personnel failed to continue to contribute their own strength to the cause of fighting the Qing Dynasty, but instead participated in the rebellion, which really made Chen Wen feel a little waste.

The civil servant was escorted up. When he saw Chen Wen who was watching, he went up and cursed him. He criticized Lu Wenlong for the crime of murdering the first two military officers, and added the so-called crime of murdering the third military officer. As for the crime of disrespect, destroying the ancestral system, and planning to make money, Cao Conglong said it without missing a single charge. However, when he saw clearly, Chen Wen had no response, and did not even have a minimum sneer. After being shocked, the civil servant pointed the finger at Han Qizheng, who was in charge of the trial, and denounced his immoral behavior of "betraying the revolution and making accomplices for the tiger."

Unlike Chen Wen, Han Qi was actually involved in the rebellion, but because he was not a die-hard supporter of the rebellion, Chen Wen also needed him to balance the civil servant faction so that he would not pursue it. But at this moment, seeing the person in front of him mercilessly revealing his past, Han Qizheng was furious and beat the civil servant to the ground with a slap.

When he was soaked with cold water, the civil servant lost the desire to vent and confessed to a series of crimes of the rebellion, but refused to slander others. He even described the rebellion as a just act of rectifying the situation. He was very ashamed of but proud.

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Han Qizheng had to summon the next prisoner, but the next few of them had the same attitude, as if the better.

These people made Han Qizheng scratch his head very much, but Chen Wen was very interested in seeing it and seemed to have thought of something. However, as the number of summons increased, there were also phenomena of falsely accusing others in order to reduce the punishment, and more and more.

This situation is very normal. It is normal for human beings to be greedy for life and fear death. Moreover, everyone has parents, wives and children. Even if they don’t think about themselves, their wives and children can bear to leave it alone. However, Confucianism’s praise of filial piety has always influenced these scholars, and putting their parents in danger has made them question their spiritual hearts quite strong. Part of them is to hope that their parents can be forgiven.

Born in modern times, Chen Wen was very dissatisfied with the system of guilt and implicating the whole family. However, the impact of this rebellion was too bad and the consequences were extremely serious. It was so impossible not to implicate their families. Chen Wen decided to compromise on this tradition in order to sound an alarm for potential and future opponents.

After looking at it all morning, Chen Wen found that he could not see too many details that he didn't know at the moment, so he left the government office and went to the former Zhejiang Governor's Office, where Cao Conglong was detained alone.
