Chapter 95: Tell the Truth
As soon as these words came out, the people were in an uproar.
It turned out that all the silver they offered to Master Hebo every year was put into the pockets of the county magistrates.
It's no wonder that Uncle He is still angry even if he eats children every year, it's because Uncle He didn't receive the silver.
Now Master Hebo has asked the ten princesses, who are also immortals, to collect the cash.
If the prefectural magistrate doesn't spit out the money, they won't be finished!
Xu Yingchun was accompanied by a small scribe in the yamen. Sun Chi called the scribe, asked him to take paper and pen, and asked the scribe to write down all the words of Fang Cai.
It's all at this time, Xu Yingchun knows that he has to fight hard, and he has to wait for his cousin to save him.
His eyes widened, and the scribe was gone: "What is this going to do, Lord Shizi?" Is it possible to interrogate someone as a prisoner? ”
Sun Chi bowed his head and praised Xu Yingchun: "My lord is worthy of being the lord of a county, and he knows everything about judging cases." However, Lord Xu is wrong this time, I don't want to interrogate adults, but to write down today's events so that I can make a certificate in the future. ”
Xu Yingchun was holding back the fire in his heart, isn't this still an interrogation?
Sun Chi leaned into his body and slid forward with a wheelchair.
"Lord Xu," he whispered, "it's just a formality. Adults have been officials for many years, don't you know that it is difficult to disobey the will of the people? If you don't make it clear today, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of Wangzhuang Town. ”
Under the embankment, people are crowded, and people gather more and more, densely connected.
I don't know how the news got out, but after half a day, people from some nearby villages actually came.
Not only the poor people, but also the big families in the town came.
However, so many people are surprisingly quiet.
They tilted their heads and looked eagerly at the little girl doll above the embankment.
This is the princess who cured the Lanjiang River, and this is the god who saved them from disaster.
The gods have come to save their children.
Xu Yingchun was dripping with cold sweat on his forehead, as Sun Chi said, it is difficult to disobey the will of the people.
After all these years, he knew what he had done.
In addition to the embankment at your feet, buying and selling land is also a one.
The government has a clear rule that land cannot be bought or sold. But there are so many fertile lands, all of them are allocated, and the land divided by the population is close to the Lanjiang River.
Who wants the land on the edge of the Lanjiang River, catch up with the unlucky, planted in the spring, and before the harvest, it was flooded.
There are many people in the Wang clan in Wangzhuang Town, and the Wang family is in a group, and there are fights with people with foreign surnames because of land grabbing every year.
Since Wang Dayou became the pavilion chief under his name, the people with foreign surnames in Wangzhuang Town have been bullied even more.
The water of the Kelan River floods every year, and the population is increasing, but the land that can be divided is getting less and less.
As a last resort, Wang Dayou and the Wang family came up with such a method.
From the beginning, Hebo's affairs were specifically aimed at people with foreign surnames, whether they were poor or rich, and they were all treated equally whether they paid the money or not.
If you can't stand it, get out of Wangzhuang Town, and their land will naturally belong to the Wang family.
Later, there were fewer and fewer people with foreign surnames, and it became inevitable to take the side branches of the clan.
There were even times when I left the town to go to a nearby village to grab children.
But there is one thing, Xu Yingchun really didn't lie, he really didn't take the money that the villagers offered to Master Hebo.
How much money can a farmer have? The money given to Master Hebo is not enough, Xu Xiangu has a share with Wang.
Xu Yingchun's annual gifts were honored by the big families in the town.
This filial piety is not taken in vain, the good land left by those who left the town was redistributed by Xu Yingchun.
Of course, the land was redistributed to the big families in the town, and the New Year's festival was the money for the big families to buy the land.
Xu Yingchun wiped his sweat, he glared at Xu Xiangu, this mother-in-law who didn't know whether she was alive or dead, what kind of accounts did she keep when she was idle?
I wonder if she recorded his purchase and sale of the land in her account book.
Therefore, it is still very reasonable for the ancestors to say that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented. If his cousin hadn't been literate, what would he have kept an account!
"Lord Shizi," Xu Yingchun also followed Sun Chi's example, and lowered his voice, "According to the meaning of the Shizi, what should the lower officials do?" ”
Sun Chi said with a smile: "Lord Xu will tell the truth." ”
Xu Yingchun choked: "Tell the truth? ”
Doesn't that still have to ask him to hand over his handle?
If he told the truth, it would be strange if the villagers under this embankment didn't tear him up!
"Lord Xu, you tell the truth, I will ensure that you get out of Wangzhuang Town smoothly."
The temptation is too great.
Xu Yingchun glanced at the surging Lanjiang River, and asked in a trembling voice, "That...... The lower officials don't have to persuade Master Hebo? ”
Sun Chi smiled: "This is all a child's trick." My lord will tell me the truth. The folks are ignorant, so there is no need to talk to them. As for this certificate......"
He pointed to the scribe who was struggling to write: "The person is yours, and what you do with it after you go back is your business." ”
Xu Yingchun breathed a sigh of relief, in the end, he was the prince of the world, and it was not difficult to speak, which made people feel comfortable from the inside out.
It's a pity, why are your legs crippled?
Xu Yingchun smiled sincerely: "Don't worry, Lord Shizi, the lower officials must have something to say, and they will never hide it." ”
Sun Chi stroked his palms and praised: "My lord is really bright!" ”
His applause fell, and Shunzi and Shi Dalang took Xu Xiangu and Wang Dayou aside alone, and invited Xu Yingchun over to isolate outsiders in case someone eavesdropped.
Xu Yingchun was even more relieved when he saw this posture.
It seems that Sun Chi is also a person who understands current affairs, and the Sun family is already at the end of the crossbow, so what to compare with his cousin.
Sun Chi curled his fingers and tapped the wheelchair: "Lord Xu, now Xu Xiangu and Pavilion Chief Wang can also talk, adults can speak." The three-way confrontation, what the facts are, is clear. ”
Xu Yingchun glared at the embarrassed Xu Xiangu fiercely, snorted coldly, and was about to speak, but when he saw that the scribe was still writing a book, he felt worried: "Lord Shizi, this ......"
Sun Chi smiled: "Didn't Fang just explain it to the adults?" ”
He beckoned Xu Yingchun to come over: "It's just to make a show in front of people, so that Xu Xiangu and Wang Dayou can rest assured and say everything." In this way, adults can also know what vouchers they have in their hands in addition to the account book that Xu Xiangu said. Wouldn't adults have more peace of mind if they got rid of all the vouchers? ”
Xu Yingchun's eyes lit up, and what he said was yes!
The interrogation was handed over to Sun Chi, and Xiao Yuan became more and more troubled.
She was already 90% sure that there were definitely addictive drugs in the snacks that Xiao Jianning gave her.
She just didn't understand why Xiao Jianning did this, harming her, it wouldn't be good for him at all.
"Your Highness," Su Su looked at her worriedly, "There is already a prince here who is in charge of the overall situation, why don't we go back and rest first." Hai Daweng has already hired a medical worker, presumably he will be back soon. ”
Xiao Yuanhao yawned and shook his head: "I'm going to send someone to persuade Hebo in a while, if we leave, we won't be able to see this excitement." ”
She stretched and looked up into the distance to sober herself up.
That's it, things have to come one by one, what Xiao Jianning wants, you will know when you go back.
She is the princess of Da Yanyan, the eldest son of a servant girl, what can she do?
