Chapter 143: On behalf of the people

With a solid defense, even if all enemies are invulnerable, if the core is broken, no matter how strong the defense is, it is vulnerable. Instead of bothering to stop the implementation of the project, why not do the opposite?!

Moreover, this matter is a good thing for the benefit of the people, and if someone obstructs it, it will arouse the hatred of the people and the people.

"It's worthy of Lord Ghostface, I don't know how to disintegrate?" Zach asked.

The ghost-faced man glanced sideways at him, and said angrily: "Such a trivial matter still requires the trouble of this seat, and you are not the best at creating such a trivial matter as internal strife?" ”

"Hehe, how dare you compare this little trick with Lord Ghostface?" Zach said respectfully.

"This time, the people of Wu County and the people of Anjia Village will participate together, and there will inevitably be friction, and the people of Anjia Village will be arrogant and look down on those untouchables, do you understand the meaning of this seat?"

Not only are the settlers. The villagers in the Eight Great Tusi, everyone's morale is very high, they look down on ordinary people, and they despise them in their hearts.

To be in the company of the lowly people, although they do not show it on the surface, in fact, there are a million unwillingness in their hearts. They are completely resistant.

"The little one understands!"

Zach smiled sinisterly, as if reading something from his expression.

When Zach came back to his senses again for a moment, the ghost-faced man had disappeared, acting like a ghost, fast as a glimpse. Like a ghost.

"O man of God!!"

Zach looked around him, looking through the dense forest at the mottled sky obscured by the leaves, and couldn't help but sigh, remembering the first time I saw him, I was impressed by his unparalleled resourcefulness and strength.

Of course, under admiration, it is more fear that dominates the soul.

Wu County, County Ya.

On this day, Li Changsheng, An Ran and others were discussing the matter of opening the mountain and digging stones, and wanted to 'divert water across the mountain', but it was by no means really crossing the Nanshan Mountain, but a channel was carved out from a relatively low place to divert the water source of the Nu River to flow in, forming a breakthrough trend.

Some people are in favor of manual excavation, and some people propose the idea of gunpowder exploding, anyway, everyone has their own opinions, and it is difficult to unify for a while, and at this time, the officials came with a message: "My lord, it's not good, something big has happened." ”

Zhang Fa hurriedly ran from the outside to the inner hall, and he didn't care about the fact that everyone was discussing the matter of diverting water.

"What happened?"

Running from the mountain, Zhang Fa was sweating profusely, panting and said, "Hit ...... Fights began. ”

"Who's fighting?"

Wu ...... The people of Wu County and the people of Anjiazhai. ”

"What!"

Li Changsheng and An Ran exclaimed at the same time.

Before that, for fear of friction between the two sides, Li Changsheng and An Ran each told their subordinates not to quarrel over everything, and whoever dared to create friction would be severely punished.

The last thing you want to see has finally happened.

It turned out that Zack secretly sent people to infiltrate it, pretending to be the people of Wu County and the people of Anjia Village, and deliberately provoked the contradiction between the people of Wu County and the people of Anjia Village, so as to provoke internal strife, fan the flames from the side, and cause a big fight between the two sides.

"What the hell is going on? Let's talk to this official carefully!! Li Changsheng said solemnly.

"Here's the thing, this morning, the people and the Anjia villagers were digging a ditch on the mountain road, and as a result, a big rock fell from the mountain, almost killing the people, some people said that the Anjia villagers under the mountain deliberately threw it down." Zhang Fa said, "So, the people of Wu County went to find the Anjia Zhai people theory, and those who settled down looked down on us from the bottom of their hearts, and did not admit that they had done the wrong thing. The heads of the two sides broke and the blood flowed, and the wolves howled. ”

After listening to Zhang Fa's words, Li Changsheng was suddenly displeased, and even a little angry, and said, "Is this true? ”

"The subordinates are true every word, and they dare not hide half a sentence."

"No way, the villagers of the village where I settled would never do such a despicable thing." An Ran stood up to refute it, defending it for their villagers, and said.

Throwing stones from the top of the mountain, knowing that there are people under the mountain, once it hits the person's body, it is a human life, knowing that this is the case, and doing it preferentially, such a way must be deliberately provoked between the two sides.

"An Tusi, before the matter is clarified, no conclusions can be made, if someone frames the An family, this official will not be spared, if it is really your An family's doing, this official will definitely deal with it impartially."

An Ran swore solemnly: "If it is really my family's doing, there is no need for the county magistrate to do it, and I will never spare him." ”

"Good. An Tusi has this realization, and the official is very relieved. Li Changsheng said, "Let's go, go to the mountain and see the situation." ”

This matter is not easy to delay, Li Changsheng threw down the drawings in his hand. It was the first to break out of the door and ride a fast horse to the south mountain, followed by An Ran and others.

Once the 'water diversion across the mountains' is successful, it can definitely be regarded as a great achievement, although An Jia is a Wuzhong Tusi, and he doesn't need any merit at all. But the prestige needed to settle down.

Helping the people of Wuxian County to successfully divert water will inevitably become famous, and will be supported by more people in Wuzhong, and it is unknown whether it will surpass the Zha family in one fell swoop.

It can be said that this huge project can be described as a 'win-win' situation. One, the people; The two are also officials; Three, Anjia Toast also.

Now, when this kind of thing happens, An Ran has no bottom in his heart. What is the mood of the villagers, she knows best, whether it is whether they settle down or set up a family, or other Tusi villagers, they have always looked down on those lowly villagers, whether it is really as deliberate as their own villagers. She didn't dare to assert the negative.

All the way to the horse, when Li Changsheng and the others came to the mountain, the fight had ended, and occasionally there were quarrels, and all the people of Anjia Village and Wu County went on strike collectively, forming a trend of horn confrontation.

After a fierce fight between the two sides. There were casualties, which greatly affected the progress of the construction period.

Every day the construction period is delayed, which means that the people of Wu County have no water to drink for a day, and the crops in the field are about to die of drought.

When they came to the mountain, Li Changsheng rushed up in stride, watching them get tired. Still shouting and talking non-stop, Li Changsheng said angrily: "Shut up the fuck for Lao Tzu!" ”

As a county magistrate, Li Changsheng doesn't like to explode foul language, in that case, it will be insulting, and this kind of vicious thing can happen. He couldn't help but explode foul.

With an angry shout, hundreds of eyes stared at Li Changsheng at the same time, and everyone stared at the county commander, only to hear Li Changsheng say: "How many times has this official said that during the water diversion period, if anyone dares to provoke a fight between the two sides, this official will not be spared." ”

"Say, who picked it up first?"

"It's him!"

I saw that the people of Wu County and the people of Anjia Village invariably pointed to each other, surprisingly unified.

People on both sides pointed at each other and refused to give in to each other, and they both knew the seriousness of this matter, and who dared to stand up first. Heavy penalties are bound to be met.

Instead of being punished one by one, why not face it together? As the saying goes: the law does not hold the public accountable.

Everyone didn't admit it, even Li Changsheng couldn't help them.

"Good, good, good, you are united at this time. Do you want to give this official a dismissal? Or do you think that there are too many people and the officials dare not punish you? ”

In the words, Li Changsheng said three "good" words in a row, but it can be seen that listening to the words is more helpless and resentful, and he has anger in his heart, but he can only hold back and bear it.

"Since you are so united, isn't it sorry for your unity if the official doesn't punish you?!" Li Changsheng said angrily.

Enron noticed that something was wrong, and she knew it. According to Li Changsheng's donkey temper, maybe he really dares to punish everyone, after all, this person is a tyrant who is not even afraid of the king of heaven.

"Lord Li, the construction period is urgent, and there must be no recurrence, and the law does not blame the public. People on both sides unite everything, do you really want to punish them all? An Ran stepped forward to stop him.

"Who says that the people are not responsible? Anyone who violates the law must be punished, and how can the statutes of the law be revoked because of the sheer number of them? Li Changsheng retorted, "Since they want to shield the troublemakers, they must be prepared to be punished, if they don't even have this kind of awareness, how can they talk about unity?" ”

Li Changsheng's voice was sonorous and powerful, reaching everyone's ears, everyone knew that Wu County ordered Li Changsheng to be selfless and honest as an official, and he was the blue lord of the people.

"But what about the construction period? Everyone was punished, no one was constructed, and who was handed over to the project of diverting water across the mountains? Enron asked.

She told a fact, though it seemed harsh. But that's the truth.

"The project is still handed over to them to do, but the mistakes they make will be punished by the official!!"

"What do you mean?"

"The people's fault, as a parent official of Wu County, is naturally duty-bound, and the people need to repair the canal. If they cross the mountains and lead the water, then their faults will be punished by their own rulers instead of them. ”

It is really a rare thing for officials to be punished for the people, and from ancient times to the present, we have never heard of officials being punished on behalf of the common people.

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene was moved.

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency!"

All the strong men shouted Li Changsheng with tears in their eyes, and a group of old men were moved by Li Changsheng's actions and wanted to cry.

And Li Changsheng was by no means just talking, he said: "Zhang Fa, take the cane!" ”

Zhang Fa hesitated a little and said, "My lord, are you really fighting?!" ”

Li Changsheng wanted to say the same, so he took off his upper body clothes, and asked Zhang Fa to take out a cane and hit him hard, not to keep his hands.

Not long after, Zhang Fa took the cane, and in full view of everyone, Li Changsheng was punished instead of the people, and personally accepted the punishment, which was a full fifty boards.

And this incident made everyone moved, no matter how hard the heart was, when they saw Li Changsheng, they would soften.

After the execution was completed, all the people of Wu County knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Changsheng, and shouted in unison: "My lord, the grass people know that they are wrong, and they will never cause trouble for you again." ”
