Chapter 210: The Prefect Hears the Case
Li Kang nodded and walked towards that place. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Master"
"Huh?"
"You let me down, I can walk by myself."
"It's okay, there's still two trails to go."
Luo Ying was so ashamed that she almost fainted.
Open the door of the second room on the left hand, the candle that is still burning inside exudes a dim light, shining on Luo Ying's boudoir, and when he finds the collapse of the house, Li Kang walked over, reluctantly put Luo Ying's soft and fragrant body on the bed, and then lifted the brocade quilt on the side to cover her, and finally on the way to leave, he actually leaned down to her forehead and kissed her, and said softly: "Good night." ”
Luo Ying blushed and looked at the figure of Li Kang walking out, her eyes were almost full of water, and her hands were tightly grasping the red brocade quilt, she was wondering, when the old man held her to find a room just now, did it mean it?
Chengbei Campus.
Li Kang was a little disappointed in his heart, and after seeing that the crowd under the high platform was the three thousand soldiers of Shaoxi Mansion, Li Kang's face was extremely ugly.
The formation is not neat, the clothes and armor are incomplete, the eyes are blank, and the face is discolored, this is Li Kang's impression, some people may have been standing for a long time, and they actually fell asleep against the wall, snoring while sleeping, these old and weak soldiers are the military strength he expects, Li Kang can't believe it.
Seeing that they don't even have a complete weapon, and their bodies are weak and only a pair of skin and bones, it is estimated that a gust of wind can blow them away, and if such a group of soldiers still comes to the front of the Meng soldiers, it is estimated that they will not be able to support it for even a few seconds.
Tongzhi Feng Jia showed anger, he didn't know it well, and his heart suddenly panicked, standing aside tremblingly, and kept raising his eyes to look at Li Kang's face.
Li Kang didn't bother to think about what Xiao Jiujiu was fighting in his heart, and said coldly: "Feng Jia, from today onwards, if I hear in a month that there are still people who can't eat enough and don't wear warm clothes, or that there are landlords who oppress the people, soldiers can't receive food and military salaries, and the taxes that the people incite exceed the regulations of the imperial court, I will cut off your dog's head." ”
Tongzhi Feng Jia has a nickname, called "Feng Xiao Papi," at first Li Kang didn't believe it, but looking at the soldiers in the audience, he believed it.
Feng Jia's frightened cold sweat came out, and he said in fear: "Xiao ...... The subordinate obeyed the order......"
"Go and call a few veterans?" Li Kang commanded.
Feng Jia picked a few brave veterans and brought them to the high platform.
Several veterans were brought to the high platform, their eyes were a little numb, and they didn't salute Li Kang when they saw him, as if they didn't know him, the newly appointed prefect.
Li Kang asked, "How much can one of you receive every month?" ”
One of the veterans replied coldly: "I can't eat enough, where is there still military pay." ”
Li Kangen sighed, and secretly said that this was the case, squinted his eyes and glanced at Feng Jia who was standing behind, Feng Jia immediately crawled on the ground in fright, and howled with a handful of snot and tears: "My lord, spare my life, Xiaguan...... The villain didn't dare anymore. ”
Li Kang ignored him and continued to ask the veterans, "The imperial court stipulates that anyone over the age of forty must remove their armor, I think a few of them are fifty years old, why are they still in the army?" ”
One veteran asked rhetorically, "What else can we do if we don't become soldiers?" ”
Li Kang said: "There are regulations in the imperial court that veterans and veterans can distribute land and fields, you don't know it, right?" ”
Several veterans sneered: "Of course we know, but the grain we have harvested for a year must be handed over to the government, what is the difference between planting and not planting!" ”
Li Kang nodded, this is indeed the case, and said: "I understand, this official will give you land now, one acre and five cents of land per mouth, you decide what to plant, as for the harvest of fifty-five cents, the land will be owned by you in five years, are you willing?" ”
A veteran replied, "If it's really as the adults say, of course we are willing, but I'm afraid the adults can't do it. After speaking, he glanced at Feng Jia who was kneeling beside him, Feng Jia was raising his eyes and looking down, and when he saw it, he was startled and hurriedly lowered his head.
Li Kang smiled, glanced at Feng Jia, and didn't say anything more, the old soldier's meaning was obvious, not that he couldn't trust him, the newly appointed prefect, but that he didn't believe the corrupt officials under him, such as Feng Jia, a fellow acquaintance who was still kneeling on the ground.
"Lord Feng, you start to handle this matter, you must ensure that every soldier has a field to plant, until the autumn harvest this year, their living expenses are provided by the government, and the farming tools and cattle are also distributed by the government, Lord Feng, don't let this official down again."
Feng Jia knelt on the ground and promised: "Your Excellency, please rest assured, the villain will definitely handle this matter, and will never embarrass the adult, and ensure that every soldier has a field to plant." ”
Li Kang nodded with satisfaction, and led the others to prepare to go back to the mansion, but after just a few steps, he turned around and said to Feng Jia, who was about to get up: "By the way, Lord Feng, tomorrow, the Japanese official will send someone to assist you in handling this matter, it's not that I don't believe you, but the official is afraid that there are too many things and Lord Feng will be tired." After saying that, he ignored him and turned to leave.
Feng Jia looked at Li Kang's figure, wiped the sweat on his face and smiled bitterly in his heart, do you still believe me?
In the afternoon, the case was decided.
Feng Jia stood in horror below Li Kang, the prefect, and the two classes of officials were lined up on both sides, holding their heads up, holding a long stick smeared black in their hands, which was magical.
Li Kang slapped the stunned wood on the stage and said loudly: "Ascend to the hall!" ”
The two classes of officials immediately shouted "mighty, mighty", which made Li Kang quite feel the momentum of the Qingtian Lord ascending to the court to solve the case. You must know that he has never been such a local official before, and he has never decided a case.
It seems that Shaoxi Mansion belongs to a small mansion, but there are quite a lot of miscellaneous troubles.
No, as soon as I shouted to ascend to the hall, I saw two men walking outside.
Two men entered the hall and knelt down, one was in his thirties, with an obscene image, giving a very bad impression, and he knew at a glance that he was not a good bird, and the other was in his forties, with a loyal face, and a very honest man.
Li Kang shouted on the stage: "What are your two surnames, and what are your grievances?" ”
The lewd man preemptively said: "Back to the adult, the villain is a villager of Zhoujia Village, five miles west of the city, named Wang Bao, this person's name is Zhou Fu, and the villain is a villager of Zhoujia Village. ”
Li Kang'en sighed, the imperial court law stipulates that it is forbidden to kill ploughing cattle without permission, such as farmers who kill ploughing cattle without permission will be assigned to the frontier to serve hard labor for one to two years.
asked the honest middle-aged man, "Wang Baoke has slandered you?" ”
Zhou Fu shook his head and said honestly: "No." ”
Li Kangqi said: "Then why do you want to kill the ploughing cattle? ”
Zhou Fudao: "I killed the cow when it died." ”
Wang Bao next to him hurriedly said: "My lord, he is lying, how could the ploughing cow die for no reason, it must be that he wants to eat meat, so he will kill it." ”
Li Kang asked, "How do you know?" ”
Wang Bao replied: "Someone can testify. ”
Li Kang nodded, and instructed the witnesses, and after a while, another middle-aged man with the same obscene image entered the court, and without waiting for Li Kang to ask, he volunteered: "Xiaomin on Wednesday, knock to see the adult." (To be continued.) )
