But as soon as the field was opened, something happened. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the summer of June, the sun is scorching, and the air is full of heat, making people not want to do anything that consumes their physical strength. On this day, Li Tu was wearing a hat and a few crew members, and was riding a horse to observe the nearby Shengfan in the north of Deyuan City. A few people hid behind a large rock, secretly observing the villages of the Shengfan tribe.

Although the Shengfan tribe is backward, those Shengfan have hunted enemy skulls hanging at the door of the thatched house, which looks very savage and fierce.

Li Tu was looking at the Shengfan grass hut, counting the number of people in the Shengfan tribe, but he heard a sound behind him.

As if they were facing a great enemy, they immediately drew their swords and prepared for battle.

In the middle of the sound, the thatch in the distance separated, and the two people and two horses came into their eyes, which turned out to be their own people. Li Tu saw Tang Wenzhong riding a horse looking for him, so he put down his sword and called him over.

"Owner, some peasants gathered in front of the Governor's Mansion to make trouble, saying that they want to see the owner, go and see where the owner!"

Li Tu asked, "Who took the lead?" ”

Tang Wenzhong looked at the Shengfan tribe in the distance, lowered his voice and said, "It's the scholar named Lu Dingzhou!" ”

Li Tu frowned, and hurriedly rode his horse to the Governor's Mansion. When he arrived at the Governor's Mansion, he saw more than 200 ragged peasants, who did not sow seeds and plant seedlings, but followed Lu Dingzhou to stand in front of the Governor's Mansion, and there were many discussions. There were also hundreds of peasants hiding in their houses next to the small square, observing the situation in the square.

After eating the white rice that was full for three months, the farmers became much stronger and their faces looked much better.

The crews of the Zaixing and the Crescent were like great enemies, surrounding Xu San, and lined up among the governor's palace and the peasants, faintly meaning to confront the peasants.

Li Tu rode up to the peasants and jumped off his horse.

Seeing Li Tu coming, the peasants were a little nervous and knelt down one after another. In the end, only Lu Dingzhou was left standing there.

Xu San's eyes were red with anger from that Lu Dingzhou, and he scolded loudly: "Heaven damn Lu Dingzhou, everyone else is kneeling, why don't you kneel?" ”

Lu Dingzhou said: "I am a scholar who comes to reason, how can I kneel?" ”

In Xu San's worldview, scholars are indeed privileged. Xu San was speechless by Lu Dingzhou, and his face turned red with anger.

Li Tu frowned and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

Lu Dingzhou said: "I will represent these two thousand people to discuss the land rent of the big chief. Flicking his sleeves, Lu Dingzhou said confidently: "The big boss transported us from Zhangzhou and cleared the wasteland for three months, and the honorarium cost was only three thousand taels. The rice provided for half a year is two stone per person, but it is only four thousand taels. 400 buffaloes, the price of which was 6,000 taels. All kinds of farm tools and materials are miscellaneous, but only two thousand taels. The big boss used 15,000 taels to open up 30,000 acres of land, and he had to collect 30,000 stone of land rent a year, which was converted into 30,000 taels of silver! ”

"The land rent collected by the big boss is not too high. If the big boss knew that he cherished the hard work of the peasants, he should reduce the land rent and let the two thousand people in Deyuan City live a better life! ”

Li Tu listened to Lu Dingzhou's words, his face was cold, and he said slowly: "Isn't the life I gave you good enough?" You didn't have enough to eat, but I gave you more than fifteen stone a year! Live a well-off life! ”

Li Tu looked at Lu Dingzhou coldly and asked lightly: "You like to settle my accounts so much!" Let me ask you, the Ming Emperor won the world and collected taxes, do you want to calculate the costs and benefits of his world? ”

Lu Dingzhou was stunned by Li Tu's question, and he couldn't answer Li Tu's question head-on, so he had to change his mouth and say: "It's the account of the Son of Heaven, and the people of the world can also be counted!" Emperor Wanli sent tax supervisors to collect commercial taxes, and the tyrannical collection and poison the Quartet, there was a change in weaving maids and a change in Yunnan people. The Son of Heaven is greedy, and the scholars are still vying for advice, not to mention the big boss? ”

After listening to Lu Dingzhou's words, Li Tu's face turned pale, and he said loudly: "Give me this strong Lu Dingzhou to take!" ”

Xu San waited for a long time, and finally waited for this sentence, and immediately jumped out, and took a few crew members to take people. But he didn't expect that although those kneeling peasants didn't dare to speak, they didn't let go at the critical moment, and crawled to the front on their knees one by one, pushing and shoving to stop Xu San from taking people.

"Can't take him!"

"Let go of Lu Xianggong!"

"Lu Xianggong is a good person!"

Seeing that this scholar petitioned for the people, these peasants already respected him as Xianggong. An old man led by him crawled in front of Li Tu and said loudly: "Big leader, that Lu Housheng is a scholar who petitions for the people!" How can you take it casually? ”

Hearing the old man's words, Li Tu's heart sank, and he knew that these peasants had changed their minds: now that the fields have been opened and the houses have been repaired, the next step is to farm, and there is nothing to do with Li Tu. These peasants are eating in the bowl and looking at the pot, and they are going to make trouble! Instead of working hard to pay a small half of the harvest a year as land rent, it is better to follow Lu Dingzhou to make a fuss and easily pay less land rent.

Glancing at the old man, Li Tu said lightly: "I only have two kinds of people here: obedient and troublesome, I don't know what kind of reader is not a scholar!" ”

Li Tu knew that the only way to deal with these guys who had to make inches was to be tough. At this time, once you take a step back, there will be a second petition, a third trouble, and more and more people will participate.

Without waiting for the old man to reply, Li Tu drew his katana.

Under the shocked gaze of the onlookers, Li Tu jumped into the crowd pushing each other, grabbed Lu Dingzhou like a chicken, and stabbed him in the small stomach.

On the spacious small square, there was a scream from Lu Dingzhou!

Lu Dingzhou's eyes darkened, and he covered his stomach and said, "You dare to kill me?" I'm a reader... ”

Li Tu has been walking the sea for the past two years, carrying his head to kill in and out of the pile of dead people, and he is no longer the original traverser, and he has an extra murderous aura all over his body. He was confused by the blood spurting out of Lu Dingzhou's stomach, squinted his eyes and scolded coldly: "I killed a lot of people!" Don't say that you are a poor sour scholar with no reputation, even if you are the master of Jinshi, the prefect of the county, I dare to kill you. ”

The hand did not stop, and Li Tu slashed down again. That Lu Dingzhou was broken from his shoulder to his stomach, and he was no longer angry, and he fell to the square with a thud.

Lu Dingzhou fell, and the square suddenly fell into a deathly silence. On the ground, blood flowed all over Lu Dingzhou's body. None of the peasants who were pushing the crew just now dared to stand next to Lu Dingzhou's corpse, so they were so frightened that they took a few steps back and kept a distance from Li Tu's crew.

"There are those who dare to make trouble, so fang."

Li Tu wiped the blade off Lu Dingzhou's body, put the katana into the scabbard, and said loudly: "The one who pushed the crew just now, as well as the old man who took the lead who was talking to me, will all be arrested, and each person will be hit with fifty boards!" ”

Hearing this, the peasants were frightened, and in a blink of an eye they scattered and fled, hiding in their respective houses. The faces of the dozen or so peasants who had rushed to the front just now turned pale and were about to flee outside while they were in chaos. Xu San and a few people saw that the owner had opened the killing ring, where could they still allow these Diao people to escape, and quickly went up to take down the peasants who had pushed him just now.

Fourteen peasants were arrested, and Li Tu ordered the boards to be beaten in public in the small square.

The crew members hated these peasants for daring to stop them from taking people, and when they hit the board, they hit the board very hard, and they made the troublesome peasants cry wolf. Including the old man, there were three peasants who were beaten to death by the board. After the news spread, the peasants' hearts were numb, and they were afraid of Li Tu like a tiger, and no one dared to make trouble.

Li Tu relied on the support of the crew and his own iron fist to suppress a peasant riot.
