Chapter 564: The head of Gongyi Xinyi inherits the title
Chapter 564 Gongyi Xinyi inherits the title
After a few days of rest, Peng Zhou couldn't hold back a little and wanted to go down the mountain to see what was going on.
Where does he have the time to spend on this? I'm in a hurry to go back on a business trip. Only when the task is completed can you cooperate with the other party and have a chance to inquire about the news. With Lu Buwei's communication skills, he could completely find out the inside information of the Mo family's dead organization. People have that ability, and he believes in LΓΌ Buwei's ability.
Liang, Chai and Salmon couldn't wait for a long time, and hurriedly went down the mountain to inquire about the situation.
Although they took revenge, they were still unconvinced! The caravan's goods were lost, and they could not return to Wei to make a mission. If they can't return to Wei, they won't be able to see their parents, elders, wives and children. It's true! It's hard to have a home.
It's true! What is it to kill a chief? Killing a mayor still doesn't solve the problem he faces. Nima Di! Who will compensate for Lao Tzu's loss? Nima Di! What should I do if I have a home and can't return home?
Under this psychological effect, they also wanted to go to Gongyi and kill a few more people. No! to destroy the descendants of Gongyi.
Oh, yes! What is the use of you slaying this wicked chief? They also have sons and grandchildren. According to the inheritance law of the Great Zhou, the sons and grandsons of the family can also inherit the title of Yi Chang from generation to generation.
So! What's the use of killing an evil chief? Only by destroying all his descendants, so that his descendants die and no one will inherit the title, can he solve the hatred in his heart!
The reason why there was a criminal law of the nine tribes in ancient times? Maybe here's why. Hatred cannot be relieved without killing the wicked and their offspring. But! With this criminal law, it was also used by those evil people with power. They used the charges of the Nine Clans to kill those who opposed them. Outcome! It is unacceptable to the world. Therefore! The world will only get more and more chaotic.
After some discussion, the four of them dressed up and came down the mountain.
During this time, they didn't know what was going on in Gongyi.
Coming to the official road leading to Gongyi, Peng Zhou and the four of them couldn't believe it: since the old mayor of Gongyi was killed, the social atmosphere has changed a lot. Before! Merchants and pedestrians on the official road are all "don't talk about state affairs". Right now! But he spoke freely. Even! Dare to say anything. Include! Talk about the evil things that the old mayor does.
"Hehehe! The world is getting better! Peng Zhou couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
No matter what the situation is on the Gongyi side? Today's social climate is good!
Nima Di! Before the time! Where does anyone dare to speak ill of Gongyi? If you speak ill of Gongyi, you may be assassinated in a moment. It's true! You don't even know how you died?
When I arrived in the market town of Gongyi, the atmosphere also changed greatly.
Before! In wine shops, restaurants, and inns, no one dares to speak ill of Gongyi, let alone the mayor of Gongyi. Even if you ask someone about it, they won't dare to say it. Others are worried that you are a spy sent by Gongyi, if you tell the truth and say bad things about Gongyi, then! It's evidence of your "crime", and maybe you will be killed on the spot.
So! Those who have lived in Gongyi market town for a long time dare not talk nonsense. Only those who have just arrived are deceitful and bluffing, and dare to say anything. The end result: inexplicably dead. Or! I was beaten for a random reason. At last! You can only eat coptis in your heart.
Right now! Not only can you talk freely in the market, but you can also talk freely in places such as wine shops, restaurants, and inns.
"In a few days, it will be the day when the governor of Xinyi will succeed to the throne! The mayor of Sinyi invites all the merchants who do business in the market town! My shopkeeper received an invitation the day before yesterday! The young man at the wine shop said proudly.
Reputedly! Before the mayor of Xinyi was elected, the mayor of Xinyi began to feast on the merchants with heads and faces in the market town. Start with the most famous people and then invite them in order. Anyone who contributes to Gongyi is invited.
And that's not all! The new mayor also took the initiative to admit the evil done by the old mayor (his father) and asked for forgiveness.
"Ahh The mayor of Xinyi is really our hope! Someone couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes! If only before! Where do we dare to imagine? β
"And that's not all! I've heard! The mayor of Xinyi also let out a message: In order to make up for the mistakes made by the old mayor, taxes will be reduced and exempted from today from now on. Therefore, the tax was suspended, and the tax was not collected again until after the spring festival next year. And! Collect according to the new tax standard! β
"What is the new tax standard? Isn't it high? β
"Nonsense! Will it be high? If the tax is high, will the mayor not collect taxes this year? Isn't it? β
"Yes! If you think about it, you will know that the new taxes will only be less, not more!"
"Ahh The mayor of Xinyi is really a good person! What a man! β
Under the leadership of the young man, the chatterbox of the people in the wine shop was also opened, and they talked freely and argued loudly. Some expressed skepticism, while most were optimistic about the new governor.
Peng Zhou, Liang, Chai, Salmon and the others dispersed like last time, and each inquired about the situation.
Seeing that everyone said that Xinyi was good, the corners of his mouth curled up and he didn't speak. I thought: Maybe there are spies on the other side at the scene! Do people let you speak freely? What do people think of you? If you speak ill of them, suspect them, or say bad things about the old mayor, maybe they are the target of their cleanup and assassination!
Do you think this is a time of peace and prosperity? And there is no peace and prosperity in front of him at all, but just whitewashing the peace.
In the evening, Peng Zhou met with Liang, Chai, and Salmon at the agreed place. The situation of everyone's inquiries is similar, and they are all one-sided, saying good things about the mayor of Xinyi.
"Tomorrow! The mayor of Sin-eup will carry out relief activities in the market town to help those who cannot survive. Therefore, people who can't survive in the local area can register and receive a compensation. Heard! Give back the land to the landless locals! Ryo said.
He was satisfied with the approach of the mayor of Xinyi, so! His hatred for Gongyi seems to be much less.
"The day after tomorrow! Everybody can eat white food! Chai also said excitedly.
The salmon didn't speak, but looked at Peng Zhou, waiting for Peng Zhou to speak first.
"I think! They are engaging in formalism, they are making appearances! So! Don't trust them. Maybe? Secretly, as before, they were asking all the strangers who had come to the market town of Gongyi. If someone is found to be unfavorable to them, they may be the target of their assassination! Peng Zhou expressed his opinion.
Salmon nodded and said, "I feel the same way!" β
"You?" Liang and Chai saw that the salmon was very uninteresting, and they were very angry when they helped Peng Zhou speak.
"They're just trying to win people's hearts temporarily, so let's wait and see, right? Later? Tomorrow there will be a change of wind in the market town!"
"What's the style?" Liang and Chai asked puzzled.
