Chapter 31 This is actually a pit dug by Zhu Yan again

In February, Yangzhou is like a pampered lady, and her face changes when she says it.

The moment before he spoke, it was still daylight.

Before he could finish speaking, the rain began to fall like catkins.

The sky and the earth were suddenly misty and rainy.

Yang Xian is also a ruthless person, saying that if Song Shanyan will be tried in an hour, he will not be delayed for a quarter of an hour because of a drizzle.

"Go! Lu master book. This government wants you to go and escort Song Shanyan to the stage immediately......"

Yang Xian was in the greenhouse of the mansion, pointing at Lu Mingyi's nose and scolding: "We have rested for half an hour because of this rain." If you haven't seen Song Shanyan in this mansion later, you can come up and receive your death yourself! ”

His hoarse roar pierced through the rain curtain, and even if he was half a street away, Zhu Yan could hear it very clearly in the camp tent next to the Land Temple.

"Hey! How did this dry fire come about? Even an honest person like Lu Mingyi wants to kill ......"

Zhu Yan muttered a few times, turned his head to look at Song Shanyan, who was standing trembling like chaff, and beads of sweat continued to slide down from his forehead.

His eyes moved to Liu Bowen again, and the old gentleman was standing beside the suitcase with his hands in his hands, looking down at something, and then shook his head and sighed again and again.

In the end, Zhu Yan's eyes locked on the bag of rice seeds spread out on the suitcase, and muttered: "Is it because I have worn the mask of honesty and love for the people for too long, and I have suffocated?" ”

Liu Bowen was stunned and did not respond. Song Shanyan nodded in a hurry, wiping his sweat.

The reason why these two are by Zhu Yan's side is actually nothing unusual.

It's all because of last night's "chance encounter......

When Zhu Yan and Liu Bowen came back from Guazhou overnight, they did not stay in the Balipu camp, but planned to go back to Yangzhou City directly.

With Chang Qingxue, the princess, here, Liu Bowen can't sleep in the same tent with the prince, and then come to talk about it at night.

But don't forget, Yang Xian is his protégé.

Liu Bowen also wanted to take the opportunity to conduct a surprise inspection to see if this proud protégé was really as he said in his letter.

Sharing the joys and sorrows with the people is quite popular......

How could Liu Bowen have expected that he had already fallen into Zhu Yan's set with such a calculation.

As early as when Zhu Yan wrote a letter to Yang Xian and agreed to divide the boundary and rule, he secretly told Lu Mingyi to pay attention to Xu Zhixian and Song Shanyan, if Yang Zhifu wanted to implement the policy of "working the people", these two people must be dissatisfied.

Because, judging from his understanding of the history of the Ming Dynasty in his previous life, this is the case. For this reason, he also specially instructed the soldiers on patrol to look at these two people more.

stared at it for a few days, and it happened that last night, Song Shanyan really stole 200 catties of rice and squandered it. According to his own words, "I am hungry and panic without eating meat for a meal", and "I have to be a full ghost when I die"......

But this fat little old man stole the grain depot in the west of the city, but he didn't dare to spend money in the west of the city, and he also ran to the southeast of the city to gather at Sun's house. Seeing that he had committed an accident, the soldiers who were staring at him were about to be arrested, and reported to Master Lu.

Unexpectedly, he happened to meet the prince who took Mr. Liu back to the city. So, everything that follows is logical.

Liu Bowen was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, scolding himself for being "blind", so he almost lifted the table in the hotel on the spot and went to Yang Xian to settle the account.

"What else are you going to do? Isn't this just a cool official? It's just a wicked official who doesn't care about the lives of the people......"

It was also like deliberately revealing the scars, repeating Liu Bowen's words last night, Zhu Yan turned to the other end of the camp tent, lifted a little curtain, and saw Lu Mingyi leading two soldiers, braving the drizzle, trotting to the front.

He knew better that in order to prevent Governor Yang from detecting anything, Lu Mingyi made a special detour twice before arriving here.

"I've seen the prince!"

"Hmmm! Don't say anything, just leave when you mention someone. Next up is my ......"

Song Shanyan was taken away by Lu Mingyi.

Before leaving, he covered his mouth, nodded straight at Zhu Yan and Liu Bowen, and shed tears of gratitude.

The fat old man knew that now was not the time for him to cry and shout, otherwise he would be completely exposed......

He was really scared, who wouldn't feel a deep fear when he heard that he was going to be skinned?!

After Song Shanyan asked Lu Mingyi to leave, about a quarter of an hour, Zhu Yan heard the sound of drums from the other side of the stage.

"Boom! Knock knock knock ......"

The sky also cleared up a bit.

Zhu Yan didn't hesitate, beckoned Chang Qingxue and Liu Bowen to leave: "Go and see a fake public trial of Guo Huai......"

On the pillars on both sides of the stage, which gradually radiates a glow, hangs a large book written by the emperor himself.

- Erfeng Erlu, the people's fat and the people's ointment; The people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive.

Many people gathered in the audience, looking forward to it, and their faces all had a rare sense of relaxation.

Although Governor Yang did not force them to work hard day and night for the time being, as the leader of the mansion, they all took the lead, and everyone had no choice but to follow.

As a result, the Yangzhou officials and people at the scene looked depressed one by one.

On the stage, many officials were also lined up, but Song Shanyan was kneeling with unkempt hair.

Yang Xian changed into an official uniform and strode onto the stage. Looking around the stage, he sighed and asked, "Master Song!" Are you convicted ......"

"Two hundred catties of rice seeds! In the next year, it is at least 200 stone of grain. What's more, these rice seeds were given to the people of Yangzhou by His Majesty! Do you dare to be greedy for this? ”

"It's just ignoring the law of the country and harming the people!" Yang Xian shook his sleeves and shouted. "Song Shanyan! Raise your head and recite aloud to His Majesty's inscription! ”

Song Shanyan's fat head shook and raised slowly, glanced at Yang Zhifu in fear, and then read in a trembling voice: "Erfeng Erlu, the people are fat and the people are ointment......"

"Louder louder, let the people of Yangzhou hear it!" Yang Xian viciously persecuted. "Since you have the courage to steal the grain depot, then show the courage to see death as if you were home."

Song Shanyan was completely enraged, raised his neck, and almost roared to complain: "Wronged! Wronged! I really didn't mean to steal rice seeds. It's all forced, forced......"

"Song Shanyan! Tianwei is the head, and he sees good and evil. If you didn't exchange rice seeds for wine and meat, who were you? Yang Xian laughed angrily. There are all kinds of human and material evidence, but you still want to deny it! ”

At this time, Song Shanyan was already unafraid, and continued to roar: "Heavens! Your Majesty! I was really forced to do it. If I don't steal rice seeds for wine and meat today, tomorrow I will starve to death and die of exhaustion in the fields......"

"Our beloved parents, Lord Yang, had to advance his plan drastically, and took the lead in forcing us to work hard day and night. Your Majesty! Come to Yangzhou Xicheng to see for yourself. ”

As he spoke, he actually kowtowed to the stone base of the stage: "Your Majesty! Since you sincerely look forward to the revival of our Yangzhou, why did you send us such a cruel parent official than the previous Yuan......

"You may not know that before Yaowangmiao and Yuejiadang, there were already a few farmers who were overwhelmed and escaped again, right?" Immediately afterwards, Song Shanyan's head rushed to the ground again, "bang, bang", and knocked a few times.
