Lu Yuan looked like Feng Wei.

Feng Wei sneered: "With a person of our status, what woman don't you want?" Then she looked Xiao Fang up and down, and only looked at her so that her face turned red before she smiled mockingly, "Just a commodity like you, if you have no temperament, if you want to cultivate or not, what kind of son of a rich and noble family do you think will look up to you?" We don't deserve to lift our shoes. ”

Xiao Fang was about to go crazy, her eyes were red, she stretched out her hand and pointed at Feng Wei's nose, and scolded, "What are you?" How dare you say that about me? You're just a girl next to Brother Lu, where are you expensive? Although I come from a humble background, I am still the daughter of a serious family, and you don't know how many times you have been resold after signing the deed of sale, who knows if your body is still clean? ”

"Slap" Lu Yuan slapped Xiao Fang's face neatly.

The half of Xiao Fang's face that was beaten last night has not completely disappeared, and now this slap has been added, which instantly made her die of pain, screaming "ahhhhhh

Lu Yuan looked at her coldly, without a trace of sympathy: "You say I can, but don't say my young lady, remind you again, she is my master, if you say such foul language again, don't blame us for turning our faces and being ruthless." ”

Li Zheng didn't stop it, because he also felt that what this girl said was too ugly, even if people didn't pay attention to it, they couldn't insult people like this, right?

"Woo...... Uncle Lizheng, you have to be the master for me, they, they actually beat people, and there is no heavenly reason. ”

Li Zheng looked at her in embarrassment, the fault was not others, how could he make the decision for her?

He could only sigh and said to Lu Yuan: "Childe, you have to forgive people, and spare people, forget about this matter, as for the beating of people, Miss can give them a little compensation." ”

"I gave them a hundred taels when I first came, and I also gave them a hundred taels when I beat people, Lord Lizheng, isn't the money I gave enough?"

Li Zheng was shocked, two hundred taels of silver, even if the Liu family's children were treated, it was only a few taels of silver, and with so much money left, it was also a wealthy family in the village.

He frowned and looked at Xiao Fang, ignoring her nonsense, and said coldly: "Liu family, is what they said true?" ”

Xiao Fang said confidently: "Give is give, but we were robbed, and we didn't get a penny." If they don't compensate us, it's over. ”

Feng Wei didn't answer her words, and looked directly at Li Zheng: "Did Lord Li Zheng hear her words?" Now that she has admitted that we have given compensation, can we go? ”

"What to go, you can't go, if you don't take out five hundred taels, we will report to the official." Xiao Fang still stared at Feng Wei unrelentingly.

At this moment, he couldn't even look at Li Zheng, he frowned and shouted coldly: "Since she has already given you compensation, then this matter is over, why are you still pestering endlessly?" Isn't it blackmail for you to ask her for five hundred taels of silver now? If it is reported to the official, your Liu family will not be able to eat and walk around. ”

"I ...... I ......" Xiao Fang's face turned pale all of a sudden when she heard Li Zheng's words, but she didn't want to miss the opportunity to get money from Feng Wei, so she had to settle down, and still stared at her big eyes: "Uncle Li Zheng, it's obvious that they owe us first, why don't they compensate us?" Since Uncle Lizheng, you can't call the shots for us, then I can only report to the official. ”

She glared at Feng Wei viciously, and then ran out angrily, it seemed that she had gone to the county to report to the official.

Li Zheng didn't stop her, wishing that this unreasonable thing would stay away from him. Since there was no longer anything to do with him, he apologized to Feng Wei: "I'm sorry, since she chose to report to the official, I can't stop it, so I can't take care of this matter, and ask the two of you to do it yourself." ”

Feng Wei smiled at him, and also bowed to him: "It's really disturbing today." ”

It's just that before the people left, a villager ran over in a hurry, and he didn't have time to say polite words and shouted directly: "Lord Lizheng, it's not good, it's not good, there's news from the government." ”

When Li Zheng heard this, his face immediately became serious: "What is the news?" ”

"The waterway to be built by the imperial court passes through our village, and the county government has already issued an order to expropriate our fields, what can we do?"

Li Zheng frowned: "There is a ready-made waterway on the other side of this village, why should the imperial court go to great lengths to expropriate land?" Can't that road work? Or did they not find it? ”

"Who knows? Lord Lizheng, you should think of a way, our land can't be expropriated, otherwise, what else will we live on? ”

Li Zheng patted him on the shoulder comfortingly: "Don't worry, I will take care of this matter, the imperial court may not know that there is a big river in the distance, I will go and talk to them, I don't think they want to waste manpower and material resources to expropriate our land." ”

"Okay, okay, everyone is waiting for your news."

"You can do whatever you want, don't worry.

Feng Wei was very puzzled when he heard this, it stands to reason that the excessive compensation from the imperial court should make them happy, why were they so panicked when they heard the news?

Thinking so, she also asked.

Li Zheng looked at her with complicated eyes, seeing Feng Wei's humble desire to ask for advice, there was no rich and noble family at all, and his impression of her was a little better, and he said patiently: "After the news of the imperial court repairing the waterway was released, we people were also very happy about the high compensation, everyone looked forward to this waterway being able to pass through their own land, but how could things be so simple, although we have not been to many places, but we have also heard that it is good news that those people's land is occupied by waterways. But when the compensation was paid, it was no longer the case, some of them were not compensated at all, and some were even forced to leave their homes. ”

Feng Wei's eyes darkened, she wanted to clean up some corrupt officials before building the waterway, but Murong Che had a different opinion, that is, the waterway was repaired and the corrupt officials were cleaned up at the same time, with the huge compensation issued by the imperial court as bait, I don't believe that those hidden moths will not come out, and then she can easily catch the pigtails of those corrupt officials, this kind of opportunity for fame and fortune is not untouched by no ambitious person.

So Feng Wei acquiesced to Murong Che's idea and told Prime Minister Guo Cheng about this matter, he also felt that this method was very wonderful, and through this waterway, it would definitely usher in a big purge.

Sure enough, not only the local officials were moved, but even the governors and officials who were sent to supervise also thought that this was really a good opportunity for a great purge, but it was just that those refugees were suffering.

"Didn't the imperial court shoot the governor over? Does he not care about this? ”

"Your Excellency Governor is busy, how can he have time to take care of such a thing? And the governor hasn't shown up yet, but the county commander is a coward. ”

Feng Wei was stunned for a moment: "The county commander is cowardly? ”

Li Zheng smiled bitterly: "The county commander is indeed cowardly, but his heart is good. ”

"In that case, why did he withhold your compensation? Now that the matter of land acquisition has not been decided, and the amount of compensation that needs to be claimed has not been agreed, how do you know that he will definitely take your belongings? ”
