Chapter 101: It is He Gongzi who wants to redress his grievances
In Huaiyuan County, it is a dilapidated mess.
As soon as the carriage entered the city tower, the dilapidated scene came into view, the houses collapsed, the roads were muddy, and the scrawny victims were lying on the side of the road moaning weakly, and the stinking feces were drowning on their sides.
The slightly more energetic child saw the big carriage driving in, chasing after him with a broken bowl and begging for food, the innocence and misery on his little face did not match at all, but it was perfectly blended together, making people unbearable to look at directly.
Wen Chen's face became more and more ugly, and he simply pulled out the previously confiscated silver box from the carriage, grabbed a handful from it, and threw it on both sides of the road with his hand.
"Someone has sent money!"
"Come on, someone's handing out silver!"
"God has eyes, we have an eyebrow for this month's disaster relief tax!"
"Disaster relief tax?" Han Rishan raised his eyebrows and looked at Wen Chen, "Brother Wen, how can there be taxes for disaster relief here?" ”
Wen Chen squinted, and basically had a rough idea in his mind, these bastards really took their shamelessness to the extreme, and even took the disaster relief food from the imperial court to ask the victims for taxes, and those who didn't pay the taxes couldn't eat the disaster relief food, which was an evil act of anger of people and gods in any dynasty and generation!
"Drag the He Gongzi behind you and run to the gate of the county government as fast as possible."
"No!"
Han Rishan replied in a deep voice, and with a snap of the horsewhip, the two high-headed horses were in pain and ran quickly!
The noble son who was dragging behind him has long since been tortured all the way, and he has long been dehumanized, and he is covered in mud and exhaled, not to mention, and the lower half of his body is exposed under the friction of the ground, which is extremely infiltrating.
It's just that this thing has no strength to call for help, so he can only open his mouth slightly and let out a babbling roar from his throat, hesitating too much, and no one along the way recognized that this is the son-in-law of the county master's family!
The county government of Huaiyuan County is not difficult to find, the carriage just followed the flow of people, and then arrived at the door of a red brick and green tile house, and the four-character plaque with "Defend yourself and love the people" written on the gate was shining, and it was not stained with dust at all.
In front of the house on the side, a middle-aged man like a ball, with his back to the mountain of grain bags, sat at the wooden table, collected vouchers from the people who came to line up to recognize the grain, and then threw a small bag of grain that had already been weighed to them.
These people were dressed better than the victims Wen Chen had seen when he first entered the city gate, but they were also covered with patches, and they all had sad faces on their faces.
"Xue?"
Wen Chen looked at the huge banner hanging in front of Shi Liang's house, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly turned around and lifted the curtain, looking at the woman who was touching the white rabbit easily.
"What's your name?"
Xueqin smiled slightly and asked rhetorically, "Why is it Childe's turn to ask Miss Ben?" ”
"My name is Wen Chen, can I say it now?"
I didn't want to be the fox face, but I shook my head, playing with the taste, "Miss Ben doesn't want to hear it now." ”
Xuanyang was still angry with his arms in his arms, if his eyes could kill, Wen Chen would have been reincarnated for thousands of generations in just a few breaths......
"I'll just say that this girl is not a good person......" Han Rishan said with a knife on the side.
Wen Chen's face was cold, and he suddenly jumped out of the carriage and walked in front of the middle-aged fat man who was distributing food.
"Recognize the grain and line up!"
The fat man didn't raise his head, and said lightly.
"How do you sell this grain?" Wen Chen asked.
The fat man looked up at him, his face full of impatience, "New here?" ”
"Yes."
"This grain is not sold, after paying the disaster relief tax, you can subscribe to the relief grain here, two taels of silver per month, get ten food stamps, each food stamp can be recognized as one liter of grain, the food stamp is lost and not replaced, it will be invalid when it expires, now immediately roll to the back of the queue, don't force the uncle to get angry!"
The more he said the end, the middle-aged fat man's tone became more and more irritable, and several young men with blades behind him also stared at Wen Chen.
Wen Chen took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, walked to the back of the carriage and untied the rope tied to it, dragged He Yuanlang's scattered hair, and dragged it all the way to the county yamen.
The middle-aged fat man glanced over with interest, and a few thugs behind him whispered.
"Master He still does this kind of business?"
"Cut, make money, don't be cold, I just don't know how much money this broken leg thing can buy......"
In their hearts, whenever someone walks into the gate of this county government, they want to do business with Master He, no matter what dirty deeds, Master He will accept all the orders, and naturally put Wen Chen into the ranks of human traffickers.
"Knock knock—"
Wen Chen picked up the drum hammer and struck it heavily on the drum, his face was pale, his arms were bruised, and everyone looked sideways, with a puzzled look on his face.
Xueqin on the carriage shook her head and smiled when she heard the drums, and looked at Xuanyang, who was pouting and silent, "It's a pity, but I came to find death in a hurry." ”
"Phew! You're looking for death, vixen! Xuanyang scolded indignantly, lowered his head and got out of the carriage.
Xueqin smiled slightly, picked up the white rabbit and followed, just got off the carriage, and was about to walk towards the mansion with the word "Xue" written on it, when suddenly a big hand fell on her shoulder.
"You can't go?"
Xueqin turned her head in confusion, "Why?" ”
"Because he didn't promise to let you go." Han Rishan pointed to Wen Chen, who was beating the drum.
After the fat man who put grain in front of the house saw Xueqin's face, he immediately stood up in panic and hurriedly beckoned his subordinates to come to the rescue.
saw Xueqin not far away and waved her hand gently at them.
"Well, Miss Ben would like to see how your head was cut off."
After that, Shi Shiran lifted the skirt and walked behind Wen Chen.
"Who beats the drum, and what?!"
Wen Chen knocked for a long time before a thin man wearing an official robe and yawning came out of the county office.
"Redress of grievances." Wen Chen replied lightly.
", what are you talking about in the middle of the day, my lord is busy, and I don't have time to accompany you to talk nonsense!" The thin man replied in an irritated tone, and turned around to go back.
Bang –
Wen Chen flicked his arm, and the noble son, who had been dragged all the way by the carriage, fell sideways in front of the thin man.
"If he wants to redress his grievances, you don't care?"
The man bowed his head in confusion, and pulled He Yuanlang's face twice with disgust, and his ugly face immediately became frightened.
"Less...... Master! ”
"How did you become like this? Who hit you? Tell the little one, and the little one will do it for you! ”
He Yuanlang raised his arm tremblingly and pointed at Wen Chen and the others.
Only then did the thin man realize that there was still Xueqin with an expression standing behind the young man who came to report to the official.
"Miss Xue, what's going on? What happened to the young master? ”
Xueqin frowned and pointed to Wen Chen in front of her, "He hit, if you talk nonsense, your young master will be saved!" ”
The thin man's face was grim, and he hurriedly beckoned the catcher in the yamen to come out, while he staggered to pick up the extremely weak He Yuanlang, pointed at Wen Chen and the others and ordered loudly, "Except for Miss Xue, beat these pickled goods to death!" ”
"No!"
Seven or eight catchers saw that their young master had landed in this field, and the murderer actually dared to send it to the door, and he instantly became meritorious, and he flocked to the door one by one!
"Take the lead and leave this to me, and the rest of the man and woman are yours!"
"Okay! This little girl's skin looks fine and tender, and she happened to be caught in prison at night, waiting for a few brothers! ”
As soon as Wen Chen heard this, he knew that something was going to happen, and before he could open his mouth, he saw a petite figure behind him rise up in anger, and the little black bean picked up a green brick out of nowhere, and with a snap, it covered the skull of the person who spoke lightly!
"Your grandma, my mother is on fire, don't do it, let me come!"
