Chapter 14: Killing the Thief

Chen Di was lying on the clay kang, his ears pressed against the plank. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Knock knock" Chen Di heard footsteps on the other side of the plank.

He got up and made a color to the old housekeeper Yan. Old Steward Yan understood and took the big pot of boiling water from the stove.

Liang Erhei also pulled out his waist knife.

Chen Di heard the footsteps getting closer and closer, and he flashed to the side.

The planks on the kang opened, and a wicked man's head came out.

How could the wicked man have imagined that he was greeted not by gold and silver treasures, but by a pot of boiling hot water.

"Wow! My Mom! Yes....... The wicked man shouted and fell.

The other three villains in the tunnel were also called by the hot crying father and couldn't open their eyes.

The bearded man outside the adobe house heard the shouts of his accomplices and knew that he had lost his hand.

He shouted, "Brothers, rush me!" ”

Three or four wicked men followed him and rushed to the adobe house.

A wicked man kicked the door open, and a bright waist knife plunged into his chest.

Cangzhou's martial arts master Liang Erhei is about to exert his might!

Liang Erhei's hand fell, and another thief's head moved.

The bearded man knew that he had met a hard stubble, and turned to run.

Liang Er's black eyes were fast, and he rushed over, swept the beard down with a sweeping leg, and then stabbed him in the chest.

The remaining two or three wicked men saw that the boss had been killed, and ran away like a swarm.

Liang Erhei wiped the blood stains on the knife and returned to the adobe house: "My lord, are you okay?" ”

Chen Di said: "It's okay. ”

Liang Erhei carried a knife into the tunnel again, and killed several other thieves who were burned and rolled in the tunnel.

Chen Di looked at Liang Erhei, who seemed to be a killing god, and shuddered: "I said Liang Erhei, you murderer。。。。。 How is it the same as killing a pig? ”

Liang Erhei scratched his head: "Hehe, my lord, you don't know anything." My father is a stupid pig in our township. I think this killing is similar to killing a pig. ”

Chen Di said secretly: My God, this Liang Erhei is not only a martial arts master, but also has the potential to be a cold-blooded killer.

Chen Di walked out the door and saw several corpses lying on the ground.

He remembered the tradition of a certain army in later generations: after the battle is over, the battlefield must be cleaned, and the battlefield must be cleaned like an iron plough climbing the ground.

He ordered Liang Erhei to search the clothes of several corpses. The sum of several thieves is seven or eight taels of broken silver.

But on the bearded man who was the leader, he found an emerald gem the size of a date!

I don't know which wronged ghost owned this emerald gemstone before his death.

If there is a seizure, it must be taken for its own use. Chen Di took the emerald gemstone into his arms.

Because they were afraid that these thieves would have accomplices, Chen Di and his party did not dare to stay here longer, so they went on the road overnight.

At dawn, they finally arrived at the Anyang Mansion Station.

Lao Yan settled the luggage, and Liang Erhei fed the horse. Chen Di had a hard night's work and slept beautifully.

I slept until the evening.

He had nothing to do, wandering around the inn.

The Yicheng of Anyang Yi is a middle-aged man in his forties.

"Lord Chen, are you awake?" Yi Cheng asked.

Chen Di said: "Well, it's really comfortable to sleep for a day." I ask you one thing. ”

Yi Cheng asked, "Lord Chen, but it's okay to talk about it." ”

Chen Di said: "The disaster in Anyang is so serious, I saw wild dogs biting hungry corpses on the side of the road。。。。。。 I am going to Qinyang County, where I am going to work, how is the disaster situation better than Anyang? ”

Yi Cheng said: "Anyang Mansion and Qinyang County are separated by more than 100 miles, and the disaster is half a catty and eight taels. ”

Chen Di asked again: "Since the disaster is so serious, why didn't you see the government opening a porridge shed for disaster relief?" ”

Yi Cheng smiled bitterly: "Disaster relief? There are so many people affected by the disaster, where is there so much food!

Chen Di said: "In the province, there are granaries under the jurisdiction of the political envoy yamen, granaries under the rule of the grain road yamen, and each state capital and county has its own house. Even if there is not enough grain in the granary of the grain road yamen, you can still transfer the silver of the treasury and the household silver of various states and counties to buy grain from large households to help the victims! ”

Yi Cheng said: "Looking at Lord Chen, your age, it's not Laozhou County!" If only it were as simple as you say! ”

Chen Di asked, "Please also give me advice." ”

Yi Cheng said: "Let's talk about the treasury silver in the province first, if you want to move, you need to report it layer by layer." The political envoy Yamen reported to the governor, the governor reported to the household department, and the staff in charge of Henan Fanku in the household department reported to the left servant, the left waiter reported to the right waiter, the right waiter reported to the household secretary, and the household secretary reported to the cabinet。。。。。。 The cabinet again deliberated and reported it to the celebrant superintendent。。。。。。 The celebrant finally reported to the emperor. The emperor issued a holy decree, and the decree must be reissued layer by layer。。。。。 When the will of Kaifanku disaster relief comes down to Fanku, I'm afraid I don't know how many years later! ”

Chen Di asked: "Since the Fanku can't be moved without permission, then the grain road yamen can directly allocate grain for disaster relief!" ”

Yi Cheng said: "The blackest thing is the grain road, and the cats in it are greasy。。。。。。 cough, let's put it this way, they reported to the court that they used ten grains for disaster relief, but in fact, they sent it to the people, but only one! A grain can't save a few people, and after a calculation, it's better to sell this grain too! Just ignore the people! ”

Chen Di asked again: "What about the prefectures and counties?" ”

Yi Cheng said: "The old men of the government, state, and county just thought, when there is a natural disaster, the province doesn't care, what do we care about it?" Just send more soldiers to keep an eye on the people, and don't let the people rebel! ”

This Yicheng is a sincere person, and he tells the truth.

Chen Di listened to the creeps. Officials at all levels are the parents and officials of the people, but they don't care about the lives and deaths of the people. No wonder after the great disasters of the past dynasties, there will be a great civil uprising!

Yi Cheng arrived again: "Also, Lord Chen just said that he bought food for disaster relief from large households!" Fart! There is a Liu family in Qinyang County, and most of the grain in Qinyang County is in the hands of the Liu family. People won't be stupid to sell grain to the government for disaster relief! They are all hoarded and sold to rich people who can afford to buy grain when the price is highest! As soon as it changes hands, it is several times the windfall profit! ”

Zhang Lao Tuiguan once told Chen Di about the Liu family and the head of the family Liu Mingtian in the four evils of Qinyang County, but Chen Di didn't expect that Anyang was hundreds of miles away from Qinyang, and the name of the Liu family even knew the post of Anyang.

Yi Cheng sighed again: "Lord Chen, you won the Jinshi at a young age, and you can be described as having a bright future. I really don't know what the adults in the capital think, and sent you, a teenage jinshi, to Qinyang as a county magistrate! ”

Chen Di smiled bitterly, but did not reply.

Do you think I'm willing to come to Qinyang?

I have long known that Qinyang is a disaster and famine!

Who let that Zhai Luan Zhai Shoufu sincerely harm me!

Two more days to Qinyang County.

Chen Di has to face not only this rare catastrophe, but also the four major evils of "bandits, witches, kings, and Liu" mentioned by Zhang Laotuiguan!

Chen Di, a thirteen-year-old boy county magistrate, has an uncertain future.
