Chapter 256: Speak openly in public, not afraid of group feelings

Since the early morning of this day, it has been cloudy, and in the afternoon, the wind has passed, and there are more rain slapping people's faces, and a rainstorm, after brewing, has been imminent.

And at the gate of Bingzhou, the crowd of onlookers is not affected by the coming storm, tightly surrounded by several layers, if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that the crowd in front is full of some powerful people in brocade clothes, who are excited, and there are many family Ding Hao slaves to help, and there are angry and domineering on their faces. And then at the back and the eaves of the roadside, there are some cloth people, some stand shoulder to shoulder, some are talking in groups, some are just curious people who are just joining in the fun, and there are also idlers who do not distinguish between indiscriminate and pouring fuel on the fire and shouting and cheering.

When I saw two columns of the Son of Heaven wearing white robes, leather armor, iron helmets and black feathers, escorting a red sandalwood cart from afar, the sound suddenly soared, as if it was rushing into a flood.

The leader Jia Wenxiang looked cautious, waved his arm to signal the people and carriages to stop, and asked people to ask carefully.

After a while, knowing that it was a matter of the magnates in the city, Jia Wenxiang got off the horse and reported in front of the car.

In the car, Yu Feng was discussing with Qiao Jizhong, and when he heard that the city gate was blocked, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

Qiao Jizhong was even more nervous: "Shizi, it's better to take refuge for the time being, or ask someone to dismiss the troublemakers first, so as not to have conflicts, and there are people with ill intentions who take advantage of the chaos to make trouble." ”

Jia Wenxiang also agreed: "Shizi, for the sake of safety, you should also send people into the city, and the prophet will know the state and disperse the people." ”

Yu Feng secretly thought in his heart, Shi De must have known the congestion at the city gate, maybe he fanned the flames, and used this as a way to dismount, so as to teach himself to be separated, and he neglected the "wind and cold" for a while, although when Yu Linwei went, he had to take care of it, but in this way, it was as if he was at a loss, and the people did not know the details, and they were provoked by the rumors, and the three of them became tigers, and there may not be any rumors.

made up his mind at the moment, and only said to Qiao Jizhong: "Sir, wait in the car, I will go to meet these so-called magnates." ”

Get out of the car, stand still, look at the crowd at the city gate from afar, Yu Feng flicked a blue brocade robe on his body, and while steadily moving forward, he instructed Jia Wenxiang and Gray Du, who were like facing the enemy: "Without my indication, Hugh must act rashly, and must not conflict with the people." ”

But Qiao Jizhong was unwilling to sit in the car and followed closely behind the prince.

As the prince approached, the magnates at the city gate were swarming forward, and those who were impatient waved the deed in their hands early and asked loudly: "The prince, we are waiting for the land in Pinan, and there are official documents as the deed, which is legal and evidence-based, but you let the water flood and destroy the harvest of the fertile land, you are ignoring the law of the country!" ”

This loud voice attracted countless echoes, and for a while, there were arms dancing in front of him, and his ears were full of severe reproaches.

Those people who poured out of the city with the crowd saw that the legendary "Lord Qincha" was actually a well-mannered scholar Langjun, and they couldn't help but discuss: "This Qincha looks at the modesty, how dare to do such a bold thing, and actually drown the fertile land of so many powerful families. ”

"Alas, I heard that Qincha is a prince and a nobleman, how can he understand the affairs of the world and the people, but ten thousand acres of fertile land, if you say that you will be flooded, you will be flooded, and it is a pity that you are about to harvest."

"That's not it, this year, because of the continuous rainstorm, the cost of revenue is not as good as in previous years, and the two counties have already suffered floods, isn't this Lord Qincha ordered to provide disaster relief, why did he destroy the fertile land?"

"I said, you people, what are you sighing about, look at whose fields are flooded, even if there is a bumper harvest, can it still be used to help the people?" There are those who understand it and scoff.

Of course, it is more of a question and accusation: "The son of the world is a holy order, and he came to merge the state for disaster relief, why did he go the other way?" ”

"The son of the world released water to flood the fields, but there was a saint who was enlightened, if not, it was arbitrary and arbitrary, and he did not act recklessly, but he abused his power and had the felony of taking the holy order!"

"Even if the prince is a clansman, he has to follow the laws of the country, and the prince must give us an explanation in public today!"

The magnates became more and more angry, and even surged up, and some people even threw "broken shoes" and "vegetable gangs" and other objects from afar, and the scene was almost out of control.

"Hugh is nonsense!" Jia Wenxiang scolded sharply, waved his arm, and a row of Yu Linwei stepped forward, blocking the front of the prince, and the soldiers of the royal palace such as Gray Du held the hilt of the sword in their hands, and did not leave the side of the prince an inch.

Although Jia Wenxiang was born as a scribe, he has also practiced martial arts since he was a child, and now he is a Zhonglang general, with iron armor, and he is even more majestic, I saw him looking around the crowd, his face covered with frost, and he said in a deep voice: "I Yulin Wei is ordered by the Son of Heaven to protect the safety of Lord Qincha, and if you have a threat to commit a crime, it is to provoke Tianwei, and it is the same crime as a driver." ”

After a heavy sentence, the thunder in the distant sky faintly came, and between the echoes, there was a sonorous momentum, which made the boiling crowd fall silent for a few breaths.

The wind is raging, and the rain is even more chaotic.

Yu Feng raised his arms, signaled Yu Linwei to avoid both sides, and stepped forward in a few steps, his green coat raised slightly, and his eyebrows looked calm.

These powerful people are all unfamiliar faces.

It seems that none of them come from famous families, public and noble, all of them are clowns, and Yu Feng is even more sure that they must be bewitched.

Come to think of it, the real Wang clan has no such "courage" to spill in public and sly.

But it is often such a group of people who make trouble, and if one is not handled well, it will make things more chaotic, and instead end up in the embarrassment of being indistinguishable from everyone.

Yu Feng took advantage of the silence and asked: "You are all the owners of the good land in the upper reaches of the Dinghe River in Pinan?" ”

"This is still false, we have brought the title deed documents, the prince does not believe it, but please check it." Someone was high-spirited, and only then did he recover from the shock of Jia Wenxiang's sword, and waved the thin deed in his hand again.

"I've seen the preparation of the Pinan County Ya, but I don't know anything." Yu Feng's eyebrows were calm, his eyes were more like clear water, how to provoke others, and he was calm: "Your lords, this place should have been placed at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, not a royal reward, right?" ”

This time, no one answered, and after a few quiet breaths, there was an uncertain tone: "It was originally self-owned, not a reward." ”

"Why, then, have these fields not been taxed for decades?"

……

Some people are unwilling: "Even if you don't pay taxes, the prince has no right to flood the land, you are here for disaster relief, not for taxes." ”

A chorus of echoes.

"Well, in this way, you know that these good fields have never been taxed." Yu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly: "According to the Dalong law, there are two restrictions that cannot be touched on the private land, otherwise even if there is a document as a basis, it will not be recognized by the law, one of them, if there is no order from the Ministry of Household to exempt from taxation, if it is not paid for five years, the land will be returned to the state." ”

Without waiting for everyone to express their opinions, Yu Feng said in a deep voice: "There is also a clause, if it is a tuntian in an important border town, a land where the people live in the country, or a beach for flood control in a state and county, no matter the government or the people, can you have the Chinese deed in hand to indicate that the good land itself was originally used for flooding on the tidal flats?" ”

Regarding the nature of the land, there must be a clear indication in the deed that if there is no edict issued by the Son of Heaven, the six ministries have no right to change without authorization, even if some people are motivated by profit, they do not dare to change the texture of the soil privately, and the reason why the land of Pinan Flood was openly "divided" by the noble family is based on two points.

First, when the Dongming Kingdom was destroyed, at the beginning of the founding of Dalong, internal and external troubles continued, government affairs were not well prepared, and there were many loopholes. Only then did these powerful people have an opportunity.

Second, at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the officials of the DPRK and China were promoted and denounced extensively, and the national government in the late Eastern Ming Dynasty was almost paralyzed, especially the Ministry of Water Conservancy was like a fictitious situation, and there was a lack of water conservancy talents. Later, this matter became a tacit secret of those who occupied the land.

The reason why the government also showed a deed was nothing more than to prevent the magnates from fighting for land with each other, resulting in disputes and trouble.

However, with the completion of the government of the Dalong Dynasty, the water conservancy officials of the Ministry of Industry naturally noticed that the flooding land was used for other purposes, but the people who carved up the land occupied were powerful and powerful, and after threats and temptations, they all sat on the wax and pretended not to notice.

However, these water conservancy officials were still apprehensive in the end, and they should have informed Jin and Qin of the key role of flooding.

But who wants to spit out the fat that has been digested in the belly?

Therefore, the counties and counties in the river basin have received "warnings and advice", and they are especially dedicated to the matter of river embankments, and the prevention is that once the flood occurs, the heavenly family will investigate the cause.

Only the original in the dangerous shoal, the flood land is built by the embankment, the wind and rain are smooth, once the heavy rain occurs, it is inevitable to flood the embankment.

It's just a matter of time.

However, Jin and Qin were in the court, and the water conservancy officials pretended to be lazy, if it weren't for Yu Feng's once-time experience, he would have been suspicious, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to think of the cause of the flood, but it was such a reason.

Let's say that at present, most of these so-called "magnates" who have been instigated and bewitched are inherited from their fathers and ancestors, and they only know that the land belongs to them, but they do not know the danger, so they are congesting the city gate in a daze, in a vain attempt to "ask for an explanation".

At this time, Yu Feng was "warmly reminded", and many people looked at the deed carefully, only to find the words "flooding tidal flats", and they were stunned for a while.

However, there are still some rude and incomprehensible people who say sophistry: "We only know that it is a family heirloom of good land, and there are documents as a deed, no matter what the laws and regulations are, as long as there is a land deed issued by this official government, it is subject to the permission of the national law, and the prince cannot flood the land for no reason." ”

"What a gratuitous end." Regarding this kind of self-contradiction, first claiming to ignore the law, and then using the national law to block the arrow, Yu Feng really laughed: "First, this land of flooding was originally not allowed to be bought and sold, and second, the land has been owned for decades, but no taxes have been paid, this is land? It's clearly an area of land! If you occupy the land of flooding and deserve punishment for your crimes, can you get away with it without ignoring the law? ”

Seeing that everyone was silent, and the domineering look on his face gradually faded, Yu Feng slowed down his tone: "But as the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, most of the illegal traders have already sued the old man, or died, and then it doesn't make much sense to hold them responsible, I originally wanted to submit the chapter directly, and ask the saint for forgiveness......"

"But! I tell you the truth, the so-called ancestral heirloom land, originally for the purpose of flooding, but because it was divided and stolen by various families, so that the flood had nowhere to drain, rushing down, causing the river embankments in Pinan and Tang County to collapse, hundreds of households suffered from the disaster, I have a royal order, can not ignore the safety of the people, if you know the cause of the flood, do not dig the embankment to discharge the flood, wait for the torrential rain for several days, the disaster is not only 100 households and two counties Dalong people? If you know the truth and are still obsessed, only for personal gain, ignoring the people, congesting and making trouble, and talking about the law, you will knowingly commit a crime, be stubborn, and it will be difficult to escape the responsibility according to the law. ”

A righteous rhetoric, there is no more sophistry around to argue.

At this time, the wind and rain were urgent, and it had penetrated people's clothes, and between heaven and earth, there was gradually a vast trend.

Yu Feng raised his eyes, and when he saw Shi De, who was "late", and the officials of Bingzhou City, his black eyes were deepened, and he chuckled: "As for your claims, I am arbitrary and arbitrary, and I have not done it first...... Whether or not to abuse power is up to Your Majesty to decide, and you or those involved in it are not allowed to slander and impose it, since the flood in Pinan is known, of course I will play the Dragon case, and as for you...... Originally, he was also a nobleman of Dalong, with the right to impeach in a letter, if you are dissatisfied or dissatisfied, you might as well argue with me when you play the music, just gather people to make trouble like this, and commit the ridiculous behavior of the Qincha, it is better to do less in the future. ”

After speaking, Shi Deyuan, who was stunned, hugged his fists from afar: "Shi Zhizhou, you came in time, I will work hard for you to deal with the aftermath here, and I will go to the state government and talk to you later." ”

Luoluo turned around, regardless of the wind and rain, still like a leisurely pavilion, got in the car and left.

No one paid attention, and in the crowd, there was a woman dressed as a man, in the vast rain, looking at the eyes of the son, very hot.

It is Shi Zhizhou's family that has become famous early, and the daughter of "Lingyun Zhuangzhi".
