The family is declining from generation to generation, and the once huge family is finally left with only him and his father and mother, and the family's assets are only a few acres of thin fields, and they are overwhelmed by forced labor and taxes.

It can be said that Wan Qi is a person who has truly experienced the suffering of the world, experienced the life of the common people, and has pity for the common people.

Although the Wan family is down and out like the common people, in the end, it is a family that has been a family, and there is nothing, but the children have never put down their studies, and the collection of books in the family has not been sold, no matter how down.

Wan Qi knows that the only way to change his fate is to be an official, but now he is like an ordinary commoner, and if he wants to be an official, he can only take refuge in the family, so Wan Qi actively looks for a way to contact the family in addition to studying.

Wan Qi does not have the high level of a scholar, he studies to be an official, to get ahead, and to realize his ambitions.

So for the matter of trying to please the family by his own camp, Wan Qi did not have any reluctance.

In order to prove his ability, Wan Qi also worked hard to make a name for himself everywhere, and finally gained a rare reputation.

In this way, Wanqi was finally favored by the Li family of Nanzezhou as he wished, and was cultivated by the Li family in the door wall.

Sure enough, with the Li family to rely on, Wan Qi's promotion path was very smooth, he was recommended to be an official, he was frequently promoted, and he became the governor of Nanzezhou before he was thirty years old.

But the family made him, but also bound him, Wan Qi wanted to be an official who was the master of the people, of course, Wan Qi never wanted to be an official who was upright and incompatible with the family.

What he thinks is that he is more tactful, greedy for money and not greedy for the people, greedy for rich landlords and businessmen, to curry favor with the superiors, to be merciful to the subordinates, so that the people under his rule can live more easily, at least not to starve in good years, and ruin families in disaster years.

Wan Qi doesn't want to live a poor life, and he doesn't want to have no conscience, he just wants to be an official who is worthy of his conscience, but is not an upright gentleman, his character does not need to be perfect, and it doesn't matter if he has flaws.

But Wan Qi didn't expect that it was impossible to realize such an idea, as an official cultivated by the family, all his policies must be seen by the family, and every step he took could not go against the will of the family.

And the family especially felt that the oppression of the people was not enough, Wan Qi could bear it at first, but his conscience made him really unbearable, he once thought about changing, in exchange for the result was that he was warned, suppressed, and he could only be silent in order to protect himself.

Wan Qi is afraid of death, and he doesn't feel that he is wrong to be greedy for life and afraid of death, but he really hopes that the four great families of Nan Zezhou can be eradicated and let the people take a breath.

Originally, Wan Qi felt that his idea would never be realized, until Zhao Yanhuan, Nan Zejun, appeared, and Wan Qi saw an opportunity to eradicate the family and change all this.

Especially Zhao Yanhuan's attention to the people, Wan Qi has an extremely strong sense of identity with her.

However, Wan Qi still did not recklessly take refuge, but has been waiting and seeing.

Although he was very satisfied with Zhao Yanhuan, he was worried that Zhao Yanhuan just wanted to suppress the four great families of Nanzezhou, not to eradicate the four great families.

Who knows how long he didn't wait to watch, Zhao Yanhuan, Nan Zejun, simply and neatly did it to the Lu family, when he felt that Zhao Yanhuan was busy with the epidemic and it was impossible to clean up the family.

Wan Qi was very excited, he chose to surrender to Zhao Yanhuan as soon as possible, and sent Zhao Yanhuan all kinds of incriminating evidence of the Bai family, the Jin family, and the Li family.

Because he had already made a move on the Lu family, Zhao Yanhuan decided to dispose of the Lu family's people first, and free up his hands to deal with the remaining three families, so that the four great families would also end when the plague ended.

When Wan Qi read out the various crimes of the Lu family, the onlookers in the audience and those who lost their children came to look for the children when they got the news, but they saw a pile of white bones in front of them, and the parents who were stimulated and fainted for several waves were scolding the Lu family.

At first, it was just scolding, but then a child was lost for several years, and it was likely that the mother who had turned into a white bone was too excited, picked up a few stones and smashed them at the bound Lu family and Taoist priests.

After this mother started, the other onlookers seemed to be reminded, and they began to pick up stones around and throw them on the execution platform to tie up the Lu family and Taoist priests.

The guards pretended not to see it, but instead secretly raised their feet together and kicked the bound Lu family and Taoist priests to the edge of the torture platform, so that they could be more fully exposed to the angry people.

The scene was chaotic in an instant, Wan Qi stood on it and pretended to shout twice, and the soldiers pulled the people twice at will, and it was time to maintain order.

There were a number of stones under the stage, not endless, and soon there were no stones, and then the people went around looking for rotten leaves, dead leaves, and anything that could be thrown out to smash these people.

Soon, another couple arrived, and they found their child, but unfortunately, their son and daughter were all dead, and they died very miserably, disemboweled, and their internal organs were gone.

The couple fainted on the spot, and they were easily rescued by the onlookers' well-wishers, and the couple hugged a child and cried out in a way that was not like a human voice.

After crying for a while, the couple stood up again and rushed directly to the execution table.

The soldier guarding the steps of the execution platform hesitated, the couple looked hateful, obviously wanting to take revenge with their own hands, if they went up, it would definitely disrupt the execution process.

But if these two people are not allowed to go up, these two soldiers will still be a little unbearable, their children have been killed, can't the parents beat the murderer to get angry?

Just when the two soldiers hesitated, Wan Qi on the high platform spotted the two couples, and also saw the people who were about to move in the distance.

Wan Qi hurriedly came over and loudly comforted the people: "Fellow villagers, I know that you are very angry and sad, many of you have been bullied by the Lu family, and many of your lost children are likely to have been killed by the Lu family. ”

"I can understand your feelings, and I understand even more your desire to take revenge with your own hands, but you beat these enemies to death, but is this a relief?"

"They have done all the evil things, and the final result is only to be beaten to death, how many sins can they suffer if they are sin again, so that they are simply beaten to death, can you really relieve their anger? Do you really think enough is enough? Can you dispel the hatred in your heart? ”

Wan Qi asked a few words, and the people were silent, although when they were angry, they wanted to kill these wicked people in person to vent their evil anger, but they hesitated when Wan Qi asked them like this.

"That's right, although it is painful to be beaten to death, it doesn't take long for them to die, and they don't know anything when they die, but it makes them free." ”

"Yes, you can't kill them, it's too cheap for them, you have to torture them hard."

"It's too cheap to die, it's better to let them live than die, and live to be tortured!"
