This bearded, slightly vicious young man is naturally Pan Long.

In the past few days, he has taken a walk around Donghua County to actually understand the local situation, and the more he looks, the more frowning he becomes.

When the officials of Donghua County approved the family property, they were really robbers. He had witnessed it once, and the scene reminded him of a text he had learned in his previous life.

[When the fierce officials came to my hometown, they shouted from east to west, and from north to south. The uproar is shocked, although the chicken and dog are not at ease. 】

If it weren't for the fact that nothing hurtful happened after all, he would almost have been tempted to pull out a knife and slash people.

That night, all the officials who were arrogant and domineering during the day were beaten into pigs' heads, and they didn't even know when they were beaten, they only knew that when they woke up, everyone had blue noses and swollen faces, and their bodies were blue and purple, not to mention that they would harm the people again, and it was a little difficult to get out of bed and get dressed.

Among them, there is also the innate master who has a cold face and seems to owe him a lot of money.

That person's internal cultivation is very skillful, and he can be called supernatural in terms of dissolving external strength. Pan Long punched him twice before knocking him unconscious, and even if he hated him, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the purity of his skills.

But this did not prevent him from being equally swollen like a pig's head the next day, and even the bridge of his nose was crooked to the side.

As a result, things suddenly became bigger. Not only was the entire Donghua County in an uproar, but even the Ludong County Government above was shaken. The imperial court sent nearly twenty innate masters in one breath to screen the entire Donghua County like a dragnet, looking for those who plotted against them.

Such a formation suddenly suppressed all forces. For a while, not to mention Donghua County, even the Jianghu people in several nearby counties and towns were silent. Even those rangers have retreated, unwilling to come here to wade into troubled waters.

In the past few days, they have arrested a lot of green forest people with sea fishing documents on their bodies, but the prisoners who plotted against the officials have never had any clues.

...... With Pan Long's ability, if they can find clues, it will be a strange thing.

During that time in Yunzhou, Bi Lingkong not only taught him the method of "doing what he wants", but also often explained to him how to commit crimes, escape and hide, and whenever she talked about this, her eyebrows fluttered and she was full of interest.

"Let me tell you, people are in the rivers and lakes, and the skills of fighting can not be learned in a hurry, and the skills of escape and hiding must be learned first. Learn these well, and you won't be afraid to go all over the world!"

As the number one thief in Great Xia, who had escaped under the full pursuit of the emperor's masters in the past, Bi Lingkong was undoubtedly an authority in this regard. Pan Long can be regarded as having her true inheritance, not to mention these innate masters, even if it is a top master in the rivers and lakes like the great grandmaster Li Wu, don't want to find him out in just a few days.

On the contrary, he took advantage of the opportunity to make a mess of porridge outside and sneaked into the prison in Donghua County.

He already knows a lot about the situation in Donghua County. But after all, the time is still short, and what you can see is very limited on your own, in order to avoid revealing your identity, it is not convenient to find someone to inquire, so it is better to go to the prison to ask the scholar Bian Deming.

This scholar is a local and very knowledgeable, so I think I can help him a lot.

Hearing his question, Bian Deming sighed: "This brother, we are all in prison. I don't know if I can get out of this life, what's the point of talking about this?"

"Idle is idle. Pan Long smiled, "God knows how long I will be locked up, I always have to find something to talk about." To tell you the truth, I also read books before I mixed the rivers and lakes. I usually like to talk to people about the past and the present, and discuss the world's major events. If you ask me to talk to them about all those things that are going on and drinking, I can't say a word, and they will say, 'Old driver's exchange, virgin go away'...... That's shameless!"

Bian Deming was amused by his words, and his originally gloomy mood improved a little.

"Changing the law is a good thing, but the officials in Qingzhou have made good things bad. He said, "Governing the country is like curing a disease, and the medicine must be just right." One less point is not effective, and one more point can poison people. But the officials in Qingzhou are no longer a matter of one more point, but they have directly placed two or three times the weight!"

He sighed: "If the court does something like them, if the court is conservative, it will be able to calm the wife." Now that there is a change in the imperial court, they will make things bigger and worse, and even bring disaster to the country and the people!"

Pan Long nodded, and then asked, "Do you think they did things badly on purpose, or did they originally want to do things well, but did they do bad things with good intentions?"

"How can these dog officials have any good intentions!" Bian Deming snorted coldly and analyzed, "The officials of Qingzhou will never deliberately make trouble for the imperial court, this is not the atmosphere of Qingzhou officialdom. They just habitually increase the tasks assigned by the imperial court, and the imperial court wants to do one, and when it reaches the prefect's side, it becomes two, and then it becomes three on the prefect's side, and that's it. ”

"But I saw from the outside that the officials checked the assets, and only acted on the people, and did not provoke the high-ranking families at all...... Isn't this not in line with the orders of the imperial court?" Pan Long asked.

Bian Deming laughed a few times, and then said, "Little brother, you said you have read the book...... I'm afraid most of the reading is poetry and songs, right?"

Pan Long blinked, dazed.

If you read more history books, you will understand that this is normal! What is the imperial court? The imperial court is also composed of people, but everyone who is a person must safeguard his own interests. In the past, Emperor Jiazi had three articles, "The Theory of the State", "The Theory of Law", and "The Theory of the World", known as "opening the world and shaking the past and the present". ”

"Are you talking about 'Ping Tiance'? Isn't there a total of six articles, why do you only say three?"

"Haha, these three articles of Dijiazi can still be found in the official schools of the state and county. Wen Chaogong's "On Wealth", "On Power", and "On Class" were not allowed to be published privately by the people as early as the time of Emperor Yichou, and later they even checked a few times, where do you find these three articles to read?"

Bian Deming shook his head as he spoke, and sighed: "I also want to find those three articles and read them, and see what is the difference between the first sage in the world and the first sage in the world." It's a pity that I can't find it. Don't say I can't find it, it's my scholars in Qingzhou, who have searched for many years, and they haven't found the next three articles of Ping Tiance!"

After he sighed, he explained to Pan Long: "Where does the money of the imperial court come from? In this dynasty, there is no household tax, only two taxes for land merchants. The bulk of these two taxes come from those high-ranking households. To put it bluntly, the officials and officials are from the side of the big families, how can they kill chickens and take eggs and find trouble for the big families?"

"But the court changed the law, isn't it just to restrict large households? I have also watched "Shendu Tongue War", and the prince of Luonan said: 'Today's disadvantage is that there is no tax for huge households, small taxes for large households, and heavy taxes for small and medium-sized households. Therefore, we should re-examine assets, so that taxes and households are the same, and the people are profitable'...... Doesn't that make sense?"

Bian Deming shook his head, with a bit of disdain in his expression: "It's just a nice word, if you want to check the wealth, why don't you start with Zhu Zhao first? However, the verification of private assets has been in full swing...... The emperor himself refuses to take the lead in cutting meat, but asks others to let blood, how can it be so easy!"

Pan Long nodded again and again, and suddenly realized in his heart.
