Chapter Fifty-Nine: Killing Monkeys and Setting an Example for Monkeys

"What a man of the mountains! What a small people! I don't know what some animals eat on weekdays? What to drink? I don't want to think about where all this food and drink comes from? Your conscience has been eaten by dogs? Ma Jin couldn't help but laugh angrily when he saw Zhang Tu mouthing a mountain and a small person, and said coldly.

"Shut up!"

Zhang Tu slapped the table and said angrily: "But I don't know where I offended Uncle Guo and humiliated us so much?" This official is a dignified imperial history, if you don't make it clear to us, even if you are the uncle of the court, we will not rest with you! ”

Ma Jin glanced at Zhang Tu dissatisfied, plucked his ears with his hand, rolled his eyes and said, "Zhang Yushi, didn't I just scold you a few words, what kind of table are you shooting?" Do you see that you are eating the fat and ointment of the people like this, and you have not seen those people who can't even eat eat stealing knives and cutting you? What do you say you have to be angry about waiting for something like this beast that is not as good as this? ”

Being scolded by Ma Jin like this, Hu Wenyue's face also became ugly, and he said angrily: "Uncle Guo, this official is kind to you, why do you look like this?" And to whom will it be seen? I don't think you're necessarily any better than me! As he spoke, he glanced at the many officials gathered outside the door, and said, "Uncle Guo, you must know that this is a white horse, not in the divine capital!" In case there is a ...... of three long and two short"

Ma Jin snorted coldly, it seems that this Hu Wen wants to do things more and more, but will Ma Jin be afraid? Thinking about it, he turned his head and glanced at Gao Shun, and Gao Shun nodded knowingly. I saw Gao Shun jump up on tiptoe and rush out, and then there was a burst of screams outside the door.

Ma Jin stared at Hu Wenyue with a smile on his face, and asked matter-of-factly: "Yes, this son knows that this is Baima County, not in Shendu." And then what? ”

Said and patted his forehead, and said with a smile: "Oh! Look at my head, Lord Hu wants to say that this is your territory, and there are your people inside and out, right? Do you want to knead this son how you want to knead this child? ”

"Re-xing! Let's see who is the most people now! ”

Yang Zaixing, who was standing behind Ma Jin, heard the command, so he curled his index finger and put it to his mouth and whistled, only to see that rows of soldiers with helmets and armor suddenly appeared on the wall outside the courtyard, pointing at the house with bows and arrows, and a large group of soldiers rushed in from the gate of the courtyard with blades in their hands, directly controlling the entire small courtyard.

Ma Jin looked at the pale-faced Hu Wenyue and the others with a cold expression, and said, "What now? Master Hu, do you think there are a lot of people? Or is this son heavy? ”

"You're a rebellion!"

Zhang Tu pointed at Ma Jin and shouted angrily: "Although you are the uncle of the dynasty, it is a great crime to mobilize troops and horses without His Majesty's will!" surnamed Zhou, if you have the guts, kill this imperial history now, or you will definitely look good when the official returns to the court! ”

Ma Jin looked at Zhang Tu, who was still arrogant, couldn't help but shake his head, sat down by himself, and then said, "Join me?" The court asked you to come to the White Horse to read the will, why didn't you read it? But you put the edict behind the drum of injustice, who do you want to see? Let the ghosts? ”

"Humph! That's the official's business, what does it have to do with Uncle Guo! ”

As he spoke, Zhang Tu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Ma Jin mockingly and sneered: "Uncle Guo, you should take care of yourself first!" Whether the official is guilty or not, that's a matter for the imperial court! But how dare you travel with so many soldiers? I can't wash it if I want to, I'm afraid that the queen will also be implicated by you at that time. ”

After finishing speaking, Zhang Tu also returned to the table, intending to sit down, but before he could touch the stool, he was kicked out by Yang Zaixing.

At this time, Ma Jin was laughed angrily: "I have long heard a saying that only the governor is allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps. Yes? ”

As soon as they heard the word me, Zhang Tu and Hu Wenyue's faces immediately changed, and Zhang Tu collapsed to the ground with weak legs, looking at Ma Jin with blank eyes: "Your Majesty?!" ”

"Humph!"

Ma Jin snorted coldly, stared at Zhang Tu with a cold expression, and said, "Zhang Tu, why did I ask you to come to Baima?" ”

Zhang Tu was like a drowning man grasping at a straw, and shouted frantically: "I haven't forgotten! Didn't forget! I haven't forgotten! ”

"Humph! Do you know what you do now? It's late! ”

Ma Jin glanced at the two of them coldly, ignored them anymore, and instructed the eldest grandson Wuji: "Take these two things that are not as good as pigs and dogs, ask them strictly, and ask them publicly in three days!" The three clans of the family are raided! ”

……

Ma Jinduan sat on the law field temporarily set up in the prosperous place of Baima County, after Hu Wenyue and Zhang Tu were escorted to the law field by the imperial forbidden army, they looked up at the sky, and then ordered the eldest grandson Wuji: "Execution!" ”

After the eldest grandson Wuji bowed down to receive the order, he sat down after coming to the order case, took out an arrow from the lottery on the table, threw it out, and said: "The time has come, execution!" ”

After the order fell, there were three cannon shots, and the two executioners picked up the wine bowl and drank it, took another long breath and sprayed it on the ghost head knife, and then raised the ghost head knife high in the sound of the wine bowl falling to the ground and cut it down hard. The two heads landed on the execution platform, and then rolled down the execution platform with bones.

There was silence in the entire court, not because the people were frightened, but because the Great Zhou court stipulated that no applause was allowed when killing officials, so as not to lose the dignity of the court, but the excitement on the faces of the people could not be hidden. As for the officials and gentry who were forcibly "invited" by the forbidden soldiers, they were afraid but they still had to pretend to be happy and hateful.

Ma Jin took in the expressions of everyone under the execution ground, and looked at the bodies of those officials and gentry and pretended to be in the same place as corrupt officials and corrupt officials. Let Ma Jin smile coldly, this is the officials and gentry are all cheap bones, and they have to let Ma Jin kill the monkey and make an example of the monkey in order to settle down for a while.

Officials, no matter which world they are, are the same under-trained, and they think that they are the emperor Lao Tzu who is leading and going backwards. Ma Jin is going to use thunder means to show these stupid donkeys, since you don't know what to do, then kill you and eat meat! Look at the rest of the stupid asses who dares to jump up and down.

Yang Chengyi, a member of the household department standing in the audience, was pale, and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve from time to time. I was secretly glad that I was not blinded by greed, and I persuaded Zhang Tu many times to read the holy decree so that he could complete the holy order as soon as possible and return to Beijing to hand over the decree. So much so that Zhang Tu and the local officials ignored him.

On the high platform, Ma Jin glanced at the torture platform in disgust, then stood up and said loudly: "The people of PY County, I am the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Ma Jin!"

I sent people to Baima County to recreate the Fish Scale Treasure Book and the Yellow Book of Enslavement, not for the poll tax of our people, I still don't lack this bit of silver, but I want to know how many people in this Baima County still have no land! Because I have a territory of thousands of miles in the Great Zhou, there are countless lands, waiting for the people to plant!

Looking at the people with different expressions in the audience, Ma Jin took a deep breath, and then continued: "I hereby promise that if there are people who are willing to go to the wasteland, I will give the land!" Give the cow! Give farm tools! Give the seeds! There will also be a settling-in fee! If you don't want to go, I won't force it! It's all voluntary! ”

……

With the examples of Hu Wenyue and Zhang Tu, especially some of the very happy gentry and their families were directly sent to the remote places of Ganzhou, the next things became extremely smooth, and the re-dispatched imperial historian not only repeatedly read the holy parables of recreating the fish scale yellow book in the city, but also let the officials who were familiar with the local situation take them deep into every township and village to read the edict, and count the acres of land and the number of Dingkou on the spot.

It was not until this time that Ma Jin thoroughly understood what it meant in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty that "the field system is not established, and the annexation is not suppressed". Because the Great Zhou Dynasty did not have a land system at all, basically rich and powerful people could annex land at will, and they did not break the law. In this way, in this ancient world where agriculture is the sky, those families are still not able to merge land? Just like Zhao Yibao in the Jingzhou case, unscrupulous means to oppress the people and forcibly occupy people's land, I don't know how many people there are in the world......
