Chapter 421: Black-hearted Parents Official
I didn't expect that since ancient times, there has been no time for this corruption and bribery to stop, and it is really ridiculous.
"What the hell is going on with your governor?" When Chu Jinrong heard this, he was also very angry, and he felt uneasy for a while, and he really didn't want to see them like this.
"The governor has embezzled a lot of money on weekdays, so that each of us has little money on hand, and not only that, but he has also increased those harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and everyone is very upset." Shaking his head, a touch of pain flashed in the old man's eyes, and he didn't know what to do at all? There was a look of despair in his eyes.
Chu Jinrong's expression was helpless, he didn't expect that such a thing would make him bump into him again.
"Okay, it's said that it's a parent official, but it's rare to have such a black-hearted parent official." When Li Qiuchi heard this, an impatient look flashed in his eyes, and his fists clenched inch by inch, he really felt that it was not worth it.
"This is just one thing he did, and our governor knows that the deficit for the imperial court is almost insufficient, so we can only ask each of us to take out our own food and hand it in." At this time, a strong man walked out and spoke very sadly, he really didn't expect that they, the farmers, had worked hard for a year, and in the end they were all cheaper than others.
In this way, all the grain was withheld from the hands of the people, which was really too much.
Li Qiuchi has always been a person with a strong sense of justice, hearing this, her eyes were full of disbelief, and then, she quickly stood up straight, frowned tightly, patted the wall next to her, and scolded angrily: "What is this?" It's too much, as the governor, he doesn't help the people work, and he still has to toss you! ”
I have never seen such a black-hearted official, under his operation, how can the people of Chenzhou still be good? They must have starved and become refugees.
"Girl, you don't know anything, this governor, bent on showing his face in front of the emperor, handed over all the grain for several years, if it is really not enough, he will come to the homes of our people to rob it, if there is no food, he will find an excuse to take away our property."
The old man at the head sighed, a sad look flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled bitterly, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Unexpectedly, things would turn out like this, Li Qiuchi squinted his eyes, a deep light flashed in his eyes, and his expression was resentful, such an official should have arrested him and beheaded him for public display, so as to calm the hatred and anger in everyone's hearts.
Li Qiuchi secretly put his eyes on Chu Jinrong's face, only to see that the man lowered his head slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, but Li Qiuchi could guess that Chu Jinrong's heart must be turning the river and the sea upside down now, thinking about all kinds of things, and he also hated corrupt officials.
"Uncle, I didn't expect that your experience was so bumpy, since this is the case, why don't you go to the capital to sue the emperor?" Chu Jinrong sighed, thinking to himself, their number is not small, if they have a little thought, they can go to the capital to find the emperor to seek justice.
Hearing this, the old man shook his head, his expression was very helpless, his eyes revealed bitterness, and he covered his chest with one hand, in fact, they didn't want to give themselves justice, however, the mountain was high and the emperor was far away, and they were a group of old, weak, sick and disabled, and they couldn't go through it at all.
"Childe, you don't know anything, we people just fled, in this case, the governor knows in his heart that we can't make too much of a name." The old man looked into the distance, and there was more pain in his eyes.
Then, he coughed, and continued: "Our family is poor, and we can't afford to pay so much food, so we were driven out of Chenzhou, and the governor said that people like us, even if we stay, it doesn't make any sense, and he drove us out in a fit of anger." The old man clenched his fists, as if remembering something painful.
What kind of world is this? Just because they don't have money, do they deserve to be bullied by others? Do you deserve to be starved to death? Nowadays, the weather is getting colder and colder, and they have no warm clothes, and if they continue to stay, they can only die.
"Old man......" Chu Jinrong wanted to say something, but he didn't know why, he felt a sour feeling in his throat, which made him unable to say a word, and even had a feeling of pain, his body kept trembling, Chu Jinrong didn't expect that such a dark thing would happen in a place he couldn't see.
As the crown prince, he will also deal with government affairs, and he often reviews and reviews the folds, and what he sees is what those officials want to let him see, today, if he hadn't met these refugees by chance, I'm afraid, he didn't know the situation in Chenzhou.
"The governor thinks that we are in Chenzhou, it may make others have a bad impression of Chenzhou, and we are not allowed to move around, but Chenzhou is a place where we have lived for most of our lives, is it so difficult to go home?"
Thinking that each of them had a home and could not go back, and might soon die in a foreign country, the expressions of these people couldn't help but become sad.
"Is there any way you can help them?" Li Qiuchi looked at these refugees, a helpless look flashed in his eyes, he glanced at Chu Jinrong and asked in a low voice.
She naturally knew that Chu Jinrong had been in contact with these things for a long time, and he could say something good to the emperor, or tell the emperor the true situation of the people, so he couldn't see these people all the time.
Chu Jinrong lowered his head, thinking about Li Qiuchi's words, a touch of pain flashed in his eyes, and his brows wrinkled slightly.
He seemed to remember something, and felt very irritable in his heart, and he remembered that day, he saw the recital sent by the governor of Chenzhou, and the official said in the recital how smooth the wind and rain were in Chenzhou in these days, and how the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
Because he didn't know what the actual situation was like, he really naively thought that it was all the truth and chose to believe it.
It's like the emperor asked for a reward, so he really felt sorry for these refugees.
Lowering his eyes, a look of guilt flashed in Chu Jinrong's eyes, at the beginning, if he could have checked it well, I am afraid that there would not have been such a big oolong incident.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken, Li Qiuchi cleared his throat and pushed him a little nervously.
