Chapter 126: The Evidence Is Conclusive

"The little people have seen the adults!"

"My lord, you have finally come to administer justice to us, our farmers in Fenghe Town, and even the entire Dongying Mansion, have only paid a lot more taxes over the years, how many people have sold their fields, sold their land, sold their sons and daughters because of taxes, and finally their families were ruined!"

Speaking of sadness, the villagers all cried.

Yun Mingyan frowned.

He had heard about this tax for a long time, but as long as the increase was not much, the capital would not do anything.

After all, many people want to eat this tax, as long as it is not obvious, it is fine.

But right now, these things are displayed so bluntly, not to mention that the trees that Fenghe Town pays taxes have exceeded the original by many times.

If it weren't for the huge amount of this matter, Yun Mingyan would not have been able to come in person.

Looking at what these people said in front of him, it was really difficult for Yun Mingyan not to be touched, and his eyes were a little moist.

Song Shu pursed her lips and said, "Lord Yun, if you want to say anything, they will tell you." ”

Yun Mingyan nodded.

He looked at the people who were leading the way and asked, "How much was your town's tax last year?" ”

The young man rubbed the corners of his eyes: "My lord, last year was not a bumper harvest, and our taxes were sixty percent of the harvest!" You know, sixty percent means. ”

Yun Ming and Yan are stupid.

Sixty percent? Doesn't this cost a man's life? Don't say it's sixty percent, even if it's half, it's equivalent to half a family's life!

Why is Qian Li so bold!

"In the first two years, the harvest was poor, and many people starved to death in Fenghe Town, but that year, we still had to take out the general to do taxes, how many people couldn't stand it, selling children and daughters, adults, we are really bitter!"

An old man in his sixtieth year walked tremblingly in front of Yun Mingyan, and he kowtowed heavily.

"Lord Mingjian, Xiaomin's wife and son all died that year, Xiaomin survived, but only Xiaomin is left!"

Yun Mingyan couldn't believe it, looking at the old man in front of him.

He turned his head, stared at Qian Li and asked, "Qian Li, what's going on?" When the collection was not collected, didn't the imperial court order that no taxes should be collected? Why is this happening? ”

Qian Li's mind was clouded, and he immediately said: "This, the lower official, the lower official doesn't know, Lord Yun, you know it." ”

There was not half a word of truth in this person's mouth, Yun Mingyan knew, and he didn't bother to question again.

Then he looked at the old man and asked, "Why don't you sue?" ”

The old man burst into tears: "Your Excellency, you know, the officials protect each other, we are just poor people, how can we afford to sue us?" When you go to Fucheng and are pressed down, if you go to Beijing, there will be an accident on the road, and the villagers are afraid, who dares to sue? ”

Now, even a fool understands why.

Yun Ming Yan was angry, looking at Qian Li, he just hated that he couldn't directly slash this shameless man.

He can't yet.

Even if he is allowed to die, everyone must know what Qian Li has done.

Yun Mingyan looked at so many suffering people, and his heart was very uncomfortable, and now he felt very uncomfortable.

He slowly stood up and bowed deeply to all the people.

Song Shu was a little stunned, but she didn't expect this Yun Mingyan to really have a bit of bearing.

It's no wonder that he has been able to get to this point.

"Folks, it's the official who has an accident, and I don't know that there is such a thing in Dongying Mansion that has lost all conscience."

"But rest assured, folks, you don't have to pay this year's taxes, after the official returns to Beijing, he will report this matter to the emperor, strictly check the amount of taxes paid in previous years, and will definitely give you an explanation when the time comes."

"Lord Qingtian! We finally see hope. ”

"Amitabha, this is the blessing of our Fenghe Town! Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir! ”

Hearing the words of these people, Yun Mingyan's heart was even more uncomfortable.

If he had noticed this earlier, I am afraid that the people would not have suffered so much.

And people like Qian Li should not have lived until now.

Yun Mingyan waved his hand: "Take Qian Li Zhu Yonggui!" After the official investigates and reports to the emperor, he will deal with it! ”

"My lord, my lord has wronged! Xia Guan didn't know anything, it was all done by this Zhu Yonggui! Many of Zhu Yonggui's fields are falsely reported! Your Excellency, you are aware of it! ”

Where could Zhu Yonggui have thought that at this time, Qian Li would still bite him, and immediately retorted.

"Lord Yun, don't be deceived by this person! It was he who told me that he could protect me so much, and I was like this! Don't believe Qian Li, my lord! ”

Looking at the dog-eat-dog appearance of the two, Song Shu was very happy, and the people who had been bullied were even more happy.

After being bullied for many years, they can finally turn over.

In the days to come, there will finally be no need to be oppressed by these people anymore, and their good days will be in the future.

Seeing off these enthusiastic villagers, Yun Mingyan sighed heavily.

"Shu Niang, you are a smart person, how did you notice these things?"

Hearing this, Song Shu smiled: "My lord praised it falsely, where can Xiaomin know this, but it was Lord Qin and Xiaomin who said that Xiaomin had a lot of thoughts, and he just saw the notice that day, so he discussed with Lord Qin, and only then did he have this matter." Speaking of which, the small people should not do this, the small people have trespassed. ”

Yun Mingyan didn't mind smiling.

"If it weren't for you, Fenghe Town, and even the entire Dongying Mansion, the official wouldn't know, you did a good job."

Song Shuwan'er, she knows so much, not to mention what she doesn't know.

Over the years, it has been the people who have suffered the most.

How difficult it is for them to grow crops, and as a result, they are not as good as beggars.

Whose heart will be at ease.

They also held back for a long time, and now they seem to be unable to hold it back, so they broke out like this.

And she is just an opportunity.

Seeing that Song Shu had no intention of stealing credit, Yun Mingyan nodded approvingly, in this world, such a righteous woman is really rare.

"Your merits, this official will remember, and when the time comes, he will naturally tell the emperor, and you will not be able to receive your reward."

Bounty?

Song Shu's eyes lit up now, and the reward means money! Now she has gained fame and fortune!

"In this way, Xiaomin will thank you to your lordship."

"Where, you deserve it." Saying that, Yun Mingyan looked at Qin Ru: "In the past few days, this official will still stay in Fenghe Town, and if there is anything, he will trouble Lord Qin." ”

"Lord Yun is serious, what do you need, just tell the lower officials."

After settling down on this matter, Song Shu finally felt at ease.

But she was a little curious.

It is said that Qin Ru's excerpt should not be given to Yun Mingyan, Yun Mingyan came in person, didn't even the capital feel that this matter was wrong, and he wanted to do something to King Cheng?

Just thinking about it, Pei Xuan came.

Song Shu was about to speak, when she saw Pei Xuan go straight to Yun Mingyan: "Lord Yun." ”
