When those people heard Changsun Chong insulting Jingwen like this, they were already very disgusted with this Changsun Chong in their hearts. Because Jingwen attached so much importance to him just now, it was not because Changsun Chong was his enemy that he directly called others criminals. On the contrary, Jingwen called him a criminal suspect, which shows that Jingwen did not take the opportunity to announce his personal vendetta. But Changsun Chong was so ignorant, and he insulted Jingwen in front of Jingwen, and even wanted to threaten Jingwen, and he wanted to retaliate by such cruel means, which is simply beyond the limits of human beings.

"Okay, the suspect is Changsun Chong, and the official will personally interrogate him." Ma Zhou immediately took over the topic and said.

The eldest grandson Chong pointed at Ma Zhou and said, "You pariah, why are you interrogating me? I am the second son of Sun Wuji, the eldest prince of Zhao State, and the nephew of my Empress of the Tang Dynasty, why are you pariahs interrogating me? ”

But Jingwen immediately continued: "Nonsense, the prince is guilty of breaking the law and the common people!" Don't say what kind of son of Zhao Guogong or nephew of the queen you are, even if the prince of the dynasty comes, we should interrogate and interrogate, and there will definitely be no favoritism! ”

"Good!" "Okay, great!" "That's great, this little adult is a clean official!" "Definitely a good official, a good official!" "The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, well said!" ……

The eldest grandson scolded himself in his heart, he actually gave Jingwen the opportunity to "show off". Originally, the eldest grandson Chong said that he was the son of the eldest grandson Wuji and the nephew of the queen, but he just wanted Ran Ma Zhou to have scruples and didn't dare to do anything to himself. Yesterday he had just been tortured by Jingwen, and it was very painful, and this time he didn't dare to be tortured again. Therefore, he wanted to pass this next and make Ma Zhou have some scruples, but Jing Wen seized the opportunity to say that the prince violated the law and the common people were guilty of the same crime, but he was immediately caught. Right now. Everyone thinks that Jingwen is a good person, and Changsun Chong is a villain.

"Jingwen, if you have a kind, just come, if I'm afraid of you, I'll be a grandson!" The eldest grandson shouted.

And Ma Zhou looked at Jingwen, and then wanted to see what Jingwen would do, after all, this time was actually Jingwen's home field, after all, if Jingwen was not satisfied, then Ma Zhou would not be happy.

"Ma County Order, what are you looking at me for? You are the prefectural magistrate here. I'm just here to observe, and you can just interrogate according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty! Jingwen said.

"Smack!" Ma Zhou slapped the shocked wood again.

"Suspect Changsun Chong, let me ask you again, do you know what crime you have committed?" Ma Zhou asked.

The eldest grandson Chong still snorted: "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse!" ”

And Ma Zhou ignored President Sun Chong's words, and then continued to ask: "I'm just asking you, did you put the perfume in the sandbag and use the sand to cover the perfume?" ”

"This is all a trick set by Jingwen for me, otherwise I ......" Changsun Chong wanted to defend.

"Smack!" Ma Zhou slapped the stunned wood again.

"This is the public court. It's not in your home, you can say whatever you want. You are here, and you can only answer yes or no. I'm just asking you. Did you put the perfume in a sandbag and cover the perfume with sand? Ma Zhou asked.

"Yes!" Eldest Sun Chong replied helplessly.

The people outside heard Changsun Chong's answer, and immediately knew that Changsun Chong wanted to mix the perfume into the sandbag and trade it in the name of sand. In this way, you can save a lot of money on taxes and also be able to enjoy the tax refund policy. I have to say that this method is very insidious. All of a sudden, more than 30% of the value of perfume was saved in taxes, which is an absolutely typical tax evasion. This kind of behavior is already very obvious, and in the eyes of many people, it is okay to not interrogate at all.

And Ma Zhou then asked: "Then let me ask you, did you instruct others to do it yourself?" ”

"Although I asked someone else to do it, but this time I was arrested, it was all Jingwen ......"

"Smack!" "You just need to answer, yes or no!" Ma Zhou slapped the wood and shouted.

"It's all Jingwen ......"

"Smack!" "Yes or no!"

In the end, Changsun Chong could only answer: "Yes!" ”

Now that the eldest grandson confessed to himself, he instructed others to put the perfume in a sandbag, and then used sand to cover the corresponding perfume. And it is obvious that Changsun Chong wants to evade taxes, and then he can get higher profits. And the onlookers outside have nothing to say, after all, this is what Changsun Chong himself admitted. And Ma Zhou at most slapped the shocking wood, but did not use torture. Since there was no torture, he admitted it himself, so there is no wrongs at all!

"This kind of person is really hateful, the tax is taken from the people and the people, is he not paying the tax for the sake of our people?" "Yes! Paying taxes is also for our own good, and if we don't pay taxes, then who will protect us? In the event of an invasion by a foreign enemy, how can you defend against a foreign enemy if there is no tax to raise troops? "Yes! If there are no taxes, then where are we going to build bridges and pave roads? "By the way, aren't we going to gradually build that cement road across the country? Isn't this all about being drawn from the guò tax? After paying taxes and building cement roads, isn't it also to make the trade roads more painful? "So, this guy doesn't pay taxes, it's really a bad conscience."

This is during this period of time, Jingwen led the tax collectors to popularize the tax knowledge of those merchants, and these merchants also resisted paying taxes in the past, and now they initially know the benefits of paying taxes. In the final analysis, the taxes paid are also taken from the people for the people, and the vast majority of the taxes can still be used by the people. Moreover, Jingwen also told everyone about the benefits that paying taxes can bring, and told them that whether it is a river embankment water conservancy project that benefits the peasants, or a trade route that the merchants need, these are all things that must be achieved by paying taxes.

Jingwen also wants to popularize the idea that paying taxes is glorious, and don't think about tax evasion all day long, which is not good for the country, the people, and themselves. And the people of ancient times were still very simple, not as "tricky" as later generations. Therefore, Jingwen's tax knowledge is still very useful, and the people have a very good understanding of the meaning of taxation.

And now Changsun Chong is evading taxes, which is also harming everyone's interests, so instead of feeling that Changsun Chong is doing the right thing, everyone thinks that Changsun Chong should be punished. If they weren't punished, none of them would agree. (To be continued......)
