The crown princess Pei Wanying gave birth to a son, and seeing that Li Hong's line was about to become the blood of the emperor, the Pei family naturally became a descendant.

Li Zhi killed the descendant of the eldest grandson Wuji, because he hated him for covering the sky with one hand.

Li Zhi abolished the queen Wang clan and replaced Wu Mei with no foundation as the queen, which may not have the purpose of controlling the descendants.

Everyone says that the current prince is virtuous and has the style of an emperor, so it shows that the prince Li Hong also hates having a powerful descendant.

At the same time, everyone knows that if the famous Yunna Buddha girl of the Tang Dynasty is not the Zhengshuo of the Han family, the position of the crown princess will not be the turn of Pei's Pei Wanying.

The reason why Pei Wanying was able to enter the East Palace was entirely because the prince considered his own heirs.

For many reasons, an overly strong descendant is something that the Li royal family cannot tolerate.

Pei's talents are numerous, even Pei Yan of Pei's family in Chang'an, not to mention that this person is far-sighted, since he joined the office, he has moved three times a year from an unknown official to a well-known living housekeeper.

In this case, Pei's should have hidden his own strength, but unfortunately, Pei's may have been suppressed for too long, and there was a little sign of revival, so he couldn't wait to jump out to show Pei's talent and show Pei's strong wealth.

Yun Chu found an extremely unreliable reason in Jinyang - harassing the purity of Mingda'an, plotting to make money in Jinyang's capital pool, this kind of false and powerful name killed more than 400 people in Jinyang Pei Manmen, although Pei's officials jumped up and down all over the world to shout grievances, sue the emperor, and finally came to the emperor's hands, and were thrown into the incinerator that the emperor didn't even look at.

At the same time, this is also an important reason why Zhou Xing, a cool official, chose Pei as a breakthrough after arriving in Chang'an.

What a character Pei Xingjian is.

How could he not see through the causes and consequences of the matter, but it was a pity that he belonged to the younger generation in the Pei family, although he had a prominent official position, he had no right to speak at home.

All the good things were said, but no one was willing to listen, so they could only watch Pei's suffering.

Out of curiosity, Yun Chu walked into the dungeon of Wannian County with Shen Ru holding a hot teapot.

The dungeon is as clean, bright and airy as ever.

The reason why the dungeon in Wannian County has not been made into a ghostly appearance is entirely because it is warm in winter and cool in summer.

The cell leader Yan Jiu saw that the county zun was coming, and knew what the county zun wanted to see, so he took him and Shen Ru directly to the torture room.

I have to say that the torture room in Wannian County is also clean, except for some strong smell of blood, the ground has also been washed with clean water, and the dust is clean.

Yan Jiu saw that the blood flowing from the prisoner's neck stained the wooden shelf red, so he hurriedly took out the cold water rag in the basin and wiped the blood on the shelf in three or two strokes.

Yun Chu said to Zhou Xing, who was lying on the bookcase and writing the file seriously: "Don't work too hard, if you fight your life, you will have no life to fight for in the future." ”

Zhou Xing, who was forgetful about writing the dossier, looked up and saw Yun Chu and Shen Ru coming in, so he got up and said, "I have a clue, and a certain family has to do it himself." ”

Yun Chu looked at Pei Lian, the old man whose neck was pulled by a wooden shelf, and asked Zhou Xing: "What did you ask?" ”

Zhou Xingdao: "The prince knows that since the fifth year of Yonghui, Pei Lian's family has not paid a penny in taxes. ”

Yun Chu glanced at Shen Ru, and then looked at Pei Lian who was in a coma: "A certain family thinks that Chang'an's tax collection work is quite complete, how did he evade taxes?" ”

Zhou Xingdao: "You have a law in Chang'an, in order to take care of small traders, small businessmen, there is an upper limit on their tax rate, no matter how much money small traders and small businessmen make, they are all paid according to this upper limit, and the tax rate that wealthy businessmen need to pay can be regarded as the difference between heaven and earth."

Pei Lian scattered his bulk goods before entering the territory of Chang'an, and also found a ministry, a servant under the door, and opened a few very small shops, which met the conditions of Chang'an City's exemption for small merchants and hawkers, in fact, the total value of goods handled by people every year was not less than 10,000 yuan.

Because the flowing water brand has cheap conditions for the initiator, in this way, people's goods are sold through the channel of the flowing water brand, and you Chang'an City can only receive a little pitiful entry into the city. ”

Yun Chu looked at Pei Lian, who had passed out in a coma, and shook his head in surprise and said, "A certain family still thinks that the family is a group of face-saving people, so they won't take advantage of the small merchants and hawkers.

Unexpectedly, this bastard refused to let go of even this little benefit.

By the way, did you raid his house? ”

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "This official came to Chang'an just to kill people. ”

Yun Chu nodded, and said to Shen Ru: "You can send the tax collectors to raid the house, no matter how much you copy, you will put it into the treasury for me, if it is not enough to make up the tax, then continue to pursue until the tax amount is fully recovered." ”

Shen Ru said: "You have to give a number, right?" ”

Yun Chu said: "There is no number, and there is no recourse, even if the tax amount is made up." ”

Shen Ru agreed, and left the dungeon to find the tax collector and Zhang Jia, preparing to let them jointly handle this matter, and must make arrangements with them clearly, Pei's family has armor, crossbows, and even gunpowder, and you must be careful when you go to raid the house.

Seeing Shen Ru leave, Yun Chu said to Zhou Xing: "It is a matter of course to steal your home in arrears, the problem is that this mistake is not enough for you to kill, right?" ”

Zhou Xing shook the dossier he had just completed, and pointed to a few of them for Yun Chu to hear.

"On the sixth day of July in the third year of Yonghui, Pei Lian and the doorman Zhou Qiandao: Your Majesty endures the scorching heat in the Taiji Palace, how can a certain family enjoy the breeze here......"

"On August 27, the fourth year of Yonghui, Pei Lian entered the Xiansheng Temple of Zhongnan Mountain to enter the incense, and when he cooked chicken and drank wine with the monk Hongjin, he said: Emperor Laozi is not as good as me."

"On November 3, the fourth year of Yonghui, Pei Lian and Peng Tong, a doorman, watched the dance in the mansion and said: This good day, this beauty, the emperor has never had it."

"In the second year of Xianqing, Pei Lian ......"

The more Yun Chu listened, the more frightened he became, because when he chatted with Di Renjie and the gentle, what he said was much more powerful than what Pei Lian said, from the emperor's upside-down posture, to the strength, and the direction, they all studied it, and also said that the emperor was fortunate to Mrs. Han, and when he was the mother and daughter of Mrs. Qiuguo, was he sleeping together......

If Pei Lian was hung on the shelf and desperately raised his height because he said this, wouldn't the words he said to Wen Rou and Di Renjie be enough to split the corpses of five horses?

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "Does the prince think that this is all a trivial matter?" ”

Yun Chu nodded and said: "When a certain family is in charge, when they hear some disrespectful words to a certain family, they generally laugh at it. ”

Zhou Xing shook his head and said: "The prince is wrong, a certain family doesn't care what they say, as long as they have grievances, it is enough, and then go to the people who said these boring things to Pei Lian for recourse, do you believe it or not, you will definitely be able to get Pei Lian's real guilt from these people?"

Moreover, it must be a real crime, and this official will definitely not talk nonsense about some crimes pressed on them, and it must be the guilt of witnesses and physical evidence corroborating each other. ”

Yun Chu thought about Zhou Xing's fierce flames in the Wu Zhou period, swallowed a mouthful of spit and said, "This must be believed." ”

Zhou Xing pointed to the dossier he had just finished writing and said: "The top priority is to first pull Wei's and Du's into it, and the more people there are, the more officials can break through the chaos." ”

Yun Chu couldn't help but nodded, looked at Yan Jiu, and then at Zhou Xing, and sighed in his heart, in the end, it was Zhou Xing who was more professional in doing things.

Like Yan Jiu, who only knows how to use torture to force the other party to confess what he wants, is too amateurish compared to Zhou Xing.

Just when Yun Chu was about to leave, Pei Lian suddenly woke up, slowly opened his eyes, and after seeing Yun Chu, he spit out a mouthful of black blood from his mouth and said with difficulty: "Junhou save me......"

Yun Chu came to Pei Lian and said, "I just know that since the fourth year of Yonghui, you haven't paid a single tax to Wannian County.

You also know that the government relies on these taxes to live, and if you don't pay any of them, there will be no friendship between us, and you are not the people under the rule of the official, so what position do you let the official use to save you? ”

Pei Lian's eyes widened and said, "I'll hand it over." ”

Yun Chu said: "It's too late, because you have been evading taxes for many years, and the official has already ordered your home to be raided. ”

Pei Lian's eyes were getting bigger and bigger, and when he saw that there was only air left to come out, there was no air to enter, Zhou Xing raised his foot in Pei Lian's crotch. kicked hard, Pei Lian's originally sluggish expression quickly distorted, and because of the pain, he struggled to twist his body on the shelf, and his mouth began to gasp for air.

Zhou Xing said to Yun Chu with a smile: "Junhou, you see, no matter how strong this person's desire for death is, how desperate his heart is, as long as his body feels pain, he will definitely work hard to survive, it's really strange!" ”

Yun Chu hurriedly returned to his public office, and said softly to the man who was sitting by the fire and drinking pots of tea: "How many layers of hell are there for people?" ”

Gently took a sip of tea, exhaled a mouthful of white air and said: "Zhong Kui said that there are only eighteen layers, and I think there can only be eighteen layers. ”

Yun Chu wanted to put down the teapot in his hand, but found that the pot of hot tea he brought was already cold at this time, not to mention, he didn't drink it full.

Yun Chu took a sip of cold tea and said, "I don't think Zhou Xing is a demon from the eighteenth layer of hell, but more like a demon from the nineteenth layer or a deeper hell. ”

Gently looking at Yun Chu as calm as a Buddha, it took a long time to pronounce a Buddha horn and say: "Amitabha, what the hell do you have nothing to do to go and see Zhou Xing torturing people?" ”

Yun Chu nodded.

Said gently: "If you don't see it with your own eyes, it shouldn't exist, I remember that you said this sentence to me before." ”
