The last time I saw a clan leader of this level was when my mother-in-law died, right? Qin Ruizhu was holding the pen, and her mind was a little distracted. Thinking of how Bai Xiaoran, the kind-faced patriarch, took away part of the property in his hands and counted it as the public property of the clan in a righteous and strict manner.

In her mind, these people are on a par with the government, and it is difficult to distinguish between them in terms of authority. But now, these patriarchs and lieutenant chiefs have to nod to themselves first and shout, "Master Qin." This feeling made her feel extraordinarily sweet in her heart.

These patriarchs were full of contempt for Qin Ruizhu in their hearts, a rabbit who was promoted by sleeping with the magistrate, actually mixed up to the point of the master, it was just nonsense. But no matter how foolish you are, you can only endure it.

The disadvantages of Xiangshan County being unofficial are now manifested. When the magistrate wanted to do something, the county didn't even have a counterbalance to him, so he could only do whatever he wanted.

After Li Yanqing greeted everyone, Liang Ruimin spoke first: "Master Liu, I came here today because I heard a rumor, the former Chunfeng Building occasionally has bandits, but the court misunderstands that my people in Xiangshan are bandits, which is really a great wrong." We, the coastal people, worship Mazu Niangniang and believe in the god of the sea, how can we worship the childless mother and believe in the vacuum hometown? I also hope that the eldest lord will definitely make decisions for us, and don't let the officers and soldiers come to my Xiangshan. Those officers and soldiers have committed lawlessness, if they go to Xiangshan, they will harm the people, and then the people will suffer and their lives will be ruined, this is a tragedy in the world. ”

Several other clan leaders knew that Liang Ruimin was now Li Yanqing's biggest creditor. On the ground of Xiangshan, more than eighty percent of the debts owed by the former magistrate have been transferred to his name.

This old fox is also a smart man, he always pretended not to know about the matter of Chunfeng Building, that is, he didn't go into this troubled water, and Li Yanqing, who was bent on catching him, couldn't do anything about him.

Several other patriarchs chimed in: "Exactly. Liang Weng is right. Those Qiu Ba are the most lawless, much more powerful than robbers. When there is wine, he gets drunk, when he sleeps with a woman, when he sees a house, when he sees something, he takes it. If they come to Xiangshan, I don't know how many women's homes will be hanging, and I don't know how many innocent people will be taken away from their wealth. The eldest lord must be in charge of us, and we can't let them come. ”

Li Yanqing looked stern, "How can this be reasonable?" What are you talking about? It is a matter of course for the court to arrest the bandits. The White Lotus Sect is doing evil and eroding the place. He also uttered great rebellious words, bent on rebelling against the court. If such gangsters are not eliminated, the court will never have peace. You say, if you don't catch the White Lotus Sect, how can you say it? ”

He paused, and then said, "If you say this, how will Shangfeng think of me?" Don't embarrass me, Liegong. In fact, there are not many people in this garrison, and there are only a thousand people and horses to Xiangshan, you only need to distribute them, you should prepare money and grain, and prepare horses and horses. Mr. Yu is the strictest in governing the army, don't worry, I don't think anything will happen. ”

The strictest rule of the army? It's not like they've never heard of it, but who would believe it? What kind of virtue is the soldier of the Ming Dynasty, everyone has not seen it. Especially I heard that Yu Dayou is a Fujian Yan, they are all foreign guest soldiers, and the guest soldiers are the most lawless, who doesn't know this? Even if Yu Dayou leads the troops strictly, how good can those soldiers be?

Li Yanqing said again: "Liang Weng and I are still friends, there are some things I shouldn't have said, but in front of my friends, I can't say it." This time, the imperial court not only had to send troops, but also sent a group of capable Jinyi guards down to investigate the unfortunate situation of the predecessor Cai Daling. Originally, it was said that Master Cai committed suicide, but now that he is out of the White Lotus Sect, who can say that he committed suicide? Perhaps, it was the people of the White Lotus Sect who murdered our good county commander, Master Cai. This matter can't be finished, Jinyi Wei Lei Tiger has already made a military order, and he would rather Xiangshan be full of graves than find the person who did it! When the time comes, everyone should also prepare a good drink for the coming Tiqi, and don't slack off. I have no right to interfere in their work, so as not to make everyone look bad when the time comes. ”

If the officers and soldiers make everyone nervous, the news of Jinyiwei makes everyone dare not even feel nervous. Although these horsemen are not as arrogant as they were back then, they are still the flood beasts in everyone's hearts.

In particular, their former commander, 6 Bing Aicai, had the greatest hobby of associating the rich with certain crimes, and inviting the rich and powerful to the imperial prison to talk until the family paid enough for accommodation and then released them home.

If today's Jinyi commander is like this, and he sees the sages and thinks, the lives of his own people will not be able to be saved at all. And the Xiangshan Autonomous Preparatory Committee, how many of you are here are not behind the scenes? There is a problem with one body, as long as people want to catch it, these people will die.

Liang Ruimin coughed, "Master Liu, you misunderstood." We're not saying that the White Lotus can't be caught, or that you're allowed to indulge the White Lotus missionaries. Sects and bandits who are committing evil and causing trouble in the localities must of course be arrested, and of course they must be dealt with strictly, strictly, and quickly. This thing is to be done, but it doesn't necessarily have to be done by Mr. Yu. This is Xiangshan, it is our place, and to do this, we Xiangshan people must do it ourselves. There are archers under the old man, and Xiangshan also has Huangpu and Xiangshan Second Patrol Division, no matter how bad it is, there are also Ding Zhuang among our various ethnic groups, which is enough to use, so why mobilize officers and soldiers. ”

"Over the years, Xiangshan has been in strict tax arrears and insufficient food and wages. Let me tell you the truth, there are two warehouses in this county, and now you can't even find mice. Some rats have also been caught and eaten by my men, and even rat skins are waiting to be put on my leather jackets. If there is no food and no money, how can we raise soldiers? How can thieves be suppressed without soldiers? As for the two inspection divisions, you are all locals, and you should know better than me, a foreigner, what the current inspection department is like. Whether the archers of the two divisions can still make up fifty people is a big problem. Do all the tribes be strong, I don't know if ordnance and other things can be used? ”

Yao Benlin, the leader of the Yao family on the side, hurriedly said: "Enough, enough." My Yao family held a group exercise a few years ago to fight against Japanese thieves. There are many swords and soldiers in the house, and even there are two earthen cannons, and any White Lotus Sect bandits are not a problem. ”

Liang Ruimin's eyes were dark when he heard this, and he didn't know how many times he scolded the stupid pig bastard on the street. Such goods have become the leader of the Yao family, so it is not to blame his family for going back more and more. He had no choice but to give his hand, "Although my Liang family does not have many children and no weapons, the children of the clan have a lot of blood and bravery." As long as the court needs it, they can die for the court at any time! ”

"Forget about dying, that's the official's life, don't rob it. Tell me, can the court rest assured that a family like Master Yao who even has earthen cannons? If you don't let the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, just rely on these cats and dogs under me, do you want to resist the earth artillery? Forget it, when I saw you today, I understood even more, this is to deal with the White Lotus Sect, it must be the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, but this official does not have the ability to break the thief. ”

Liang Ruimin glared at Yao Benlin fiercely, and then said to Li Yanqing: "Master, you don't have to go around in circles with us. In the end, what conditions do you want to prevent officers and soldiers from coming to Xiangshan, you might as well make your words clear. The old man promises that we will definitely satisfy you. ”

"Conditions? What conditions can I have? I'm just a sesame official, presumably you don't take me seriously, this time I saw the day of handing over the autumn grain, I didn't even see a grain residue in this warehouse, what other conditions can I have? Liang Weng, you don't have to coax me with good words, keep the words, and say to Qiu Ba who leads the troops. ”
