Winter is coming.

On the way back to Xianyang, Yingxuan looked very comfortable.

It's okay to look at the grasslands and walk around the desert.

The army around him had long since left, and he returned again, with only two hundred forbidden troops around him.

Even the Silver Armor Heavy Cavalry chose a station in Henan.

You should take a good rest for a while before Yingxuan's next transfer.

Yingxuan was carefree along the way.

Thinking about it, when I arrived in Xianyang, I don't know how many people will support me.

He was praised by the First Emperor.

This time, he directly got rid of his henchmen, and Daqin was finally able to develop steadily.

As for the militant army in the country, there is no need to worry at all.

He will go back and rest for a while, and then he will take these armies out again.

After all, he couldn't stop being excited at the thought of living more and more.

The mood is good, and the scenery is beautiful.

Come to the southeast corner of Henan, the border of Beidi County.

Ying Xuan saw the green onions on both sides of the road, and couldn't help but step forward and pull one.

The branches are plump and full, and Yingxuan is very happy to see it.

"Now the people of Daqin can eat."

"I've started to grow a lot of side vegetables!"

Wang Cheng and the others on his side also echoed and said.

"yes!"

"The people have the Champa rice you brought back, and the thick cloth made of cotton."

"This winter, no one in Daqin will freeze to death again!"

Ying Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

Without the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, the various unified decrees of the First Emperor were implemented very quickly.

In less than two years, I am afraid that Daqin's country has changed.

The reason why Ying Xuan didn't follow the army was that he wanted to see it with his own eyes.

What does Great Qin, which has no remnants of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms, look like.

Is the change he brought to Daqin big enough!

"I hope so!"

Zhao Yi on his side also spoke.

"That Champa rice grows three times a year, and you brought back so many seeds at one time."

"In addition, there is no disturbance of the old nobles in various places, and it has already spread to all places."

"The current Daqin, I'm afraid that every household will not lack food."

"Not to mention starvation!"

Wang Cheng nodded, and Ying Xuan was also slightly excited.

The glorious and short-lived dynasty in history has been transformed under its own influence.

Just when everyone is going to continue to tout.

An exclamation.

"Oops!"

"How can there be a person here!"

People all looked back.

But on top of a wasteland where the narrator is playing, a thin figure is bent over and plowing the ground desperately.

Ying Xuan thought that this land should be his home, so he asked people to call him over.

Ask how much food you have left at home.

But when a few soldiers brought it back,

Before he came to him, Ying Xuan's pupils shrank.

What kind of person is that, flesh and skin, just like a skeleton.

If it weren't for the weak begging for mercy in his mouth, Ying Xuan would still think that it was a praying mantis.

The two soldiers drove him to Yingxuan.

Before Ying Xuan could speak, he heard this person crying and begging for mercy.

"Guys, don't push me."

"I have reclaimed all the wasteland, and my wife and children have long since starved to death."

"Even if you kill me, you won't get any money!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other.

Ying Xuan's pupils shrank.

"What did you say?"

"Wife and children starved to death?"

Wang Cheng, who was beside him, took the lead in speaking.

"In such a prosperous world, you only need to plant a few acres of Zhancheng rice, which is enough for your family to eat for a year."

"Even if you don't want to plant, plant something else, what can't you get back for something to eat?"

"Why starve to death!"

Wang Cheng's face was slightly angry, as if he naturally felt that his wife and children starved to death because of this person's laziness.

But who knows, the man is squeezing his eyes and crying bitterly.

The thin wrist covers the eyes like a bamboo pole.

"Lang Lang Shengshi?"

"Where did Lang Lang come from?"

"The country fought desperately and forcibly levied 100 stone of grain a year."

"Don't talk about the Champa rice that I haven't seen before, I finally stopped fighting, and the land has become someone else's."

"Where did the prosperity come from?"

When the words fell, everyone was stunned.

100 stone grain, let alone civilians, even the slightly wealthy people are afraid that they are very difficult.

Such a horrible tax, this is forcing people to death!

Wang Cheng's eyes widened instantly.

"Nonsense, my Great Qin's tax is only one out of ten."

"Where do you get so many stones?"

The man's face was crying, and he looked up at everyone with a trembling look.

"It's one of ten taxes, but it can't stand up to one tax ten times a year!"

"If you fight a battle, you will receive it once, that son Yingxuan, every time you fight, you have to take away one out of ten for the whole year."

"Even a thick family can't bear it!"

Ying Xuan didn't expect that he had made so many efforts, but in the end, he would harm the people like this because of his reckless military force.

All the excitement he had along the way, all the contributions and achievements he had made to Great Qin, seemed to disappear at this moment.

But then, Wang Cheng suddenly said.

"Your Highness, it is absolutely impossible."

"No matter how difficult it is, it is impossible for the imperial court to collect ten percent of the tax, this is not a tax, this is forcing rebellion!"

Ying Xuan also reacted instantly.

Yes, even if there is a shortage of food in the country because of the successive wars.

It's impossible to collect 10% tax!

Besides, if it is really so difficult, Ba Qing Commercial Bank will also report to itself.

In Changsha, Lujiang and other counties in the south, there is no news of food shortage.

Ying Xuan was very sure, even if anyone hid it from him, the woman Ba Qing would not dare to hide it from him.

Ying Xuan's eyes narrowed suddenly.

This is Northland.

It is the old land of Daqin, and it is the territory occupied by Daqin at the earliest.

Who the hell is so messed around.

There's definitely something wrong with that.

Ying Xuan snorted coldly.

"Go forward, I want to see who dares to do this to the people in my name!"

Along the way, everyone watching was stunned.

On both sides of the road, the fields were plentiful with all kinds of crops.

But as soon as I saw the scattered households in the village, I found that the laborers were all thin and timid.

Yingxuan and Wang Cheng went to the village to find out how much tax they paid.

No one dared to say it.

The people looked at them as if they were thieves.

Ying Xuan didn't say a word, and rushed straight towards the county seat.

But as soon as the people left the village, an old man who was a little old sneaked up after them.

His cloudy and cunning eyes carefully scanned all the soldiers before putting them on Ying Xuan.

Then he said tentatively.

"Who are you waiting for? Why do you need to ask about taxes? ”

Wang Cheng stepped forward and wanted to inform.

Ying Xuan was the first to speak.

"The imperial history under the command of the prince is to return to the dynasty to restore his life, but he saw that there were many hungry people on the road."

"I'm going to ask."

"Otherwise, if something big happens, I won't know when I pass by, won't I be punished by His Highness!"

When the old man heard this, his eyes lit up instantly.

But he seemed to think of something.

"If I tell you, what are you going to do?"

Ying Xuan's eyes narrowed.

"Punish it according to the laws of Great Qin, and never tolerate it."

"Your Highness is the most disgusting glutton, and Your Majesty has killed hundreds of ministers of Confucianism for this."

"Who dares to do this, can't find death?"

The old man seemed to hesitate when he heard this.

"If so, what if that person's background is monstrous?"

Wang Cheng already knew Ying Xuan's intentions, and snorted coldly.

"In this world, there is no one His Highness does not dare to kill!"

"If you know the truth, you can tell it truthfully."

"No one can touch you!"

When the old man heard this, he was silent for two breaths.

Then he gritted his teeth, as if he had the intention of death.

"I know why."

"There are not so many taxes paid by the imperial court at all."

"The people of the nearby Baili can't survive at all now, all because of the Chaona County Order and the Nasu family."

"In order to buy more land, the Su family did everything they could."

"Raising the price of food, so that the villagers can't afford to eat food, so they have to borrow money from him."

"As soon as they borrow it, they will forcibly occupy the fertile land on the grounds that they cannot afford to pay it back."

"If the rest is not sold, he will cooperate with the county order."

"Every time I receive a report from His Highness on a successful campaign, I take advantage of this reason to forcibly levy a battle."

"I just want to force the people to sell their fields."

"Afterwards, all the reasons were put on His Royal Highness, causing the people of Chaona County to dare to be angry and dare not speak."

"But I've been to Wushi County on the south side, and there aren't that many taxes there."

"The war report is just plain good news."

"Soldiers, please be the master of the people for me!"

As the words fell, the old man threw himself on his knees.

Keep kowtowing to everyone.

Ying Xuan's face was extremely ugly.

He led the soldiers on the front line to fight to the death.

These people are in the rear, mercilessly exploiting the people.

Even under his own name.

Ying Xuanzhi felt a burst of anger in his head.

"Let's go!"

"Come with me and see with my own eyes what color the sky is in this county!"

……

At this moment, the Su family in that city.

The head of the Su family was talking to the county magistrate.

"This time, the imperial court is ruthless."

"Every household, every person, how much land they have, must be clearly recorded."

"Every transaction should not only be documented, but also investigated."

"All land transactions must be reported to the county warden and registered."

"If you buy land again in the future, you may be punished by the law for the slightest carelessness."

The county commander raised his eyebrows and looked at the head of the Su family.

"You learned this news in advance, how many acres have you harvested at this moment?"

Hearing this, the head of the Su family couldn't help laughing.

"Not much, not much, if the county order can be delayed any longer, my Su family will soon buy most of the county!"

The words of the Su family's residence shocked the county order.

I didn't expect the other party to be so ruthless, and the family property quadrupled in a short period of time.

However, the county order is not worried, and there are people in the court with the Su family backed by a big tree.

It is much more powerful than its own small county order.

I helped each other so much in order to climb that level of relationship.

Help yourself to lift it up.

The prefectural magistrate smiled slightly.

"So, it's time to stop."

"After all, this official is taking a risk to help you."

"It's too much to cause trouble, I'm afraid that the above will be unhappy."

"If you end up with people on both sides, it will hurt me!"

The words of the county order made the head of the Su family understand what it meant.

Wan Er smiled.

"Rest assured by the prefectural order!"

"I have sent a message to him about this."

"Moreover, how can we keep the county commander busy?"

As he spoke, the head of the Su family took out a large stack of land deeds.

With a gentle push, he pushed down in front of the prefectural order.

The county order of the county looked much better at this time.

I couldn't help but laugh.

"I know that Brother Su is thoughtful."

"It's just, this upward thing?"

The head of the Su family looked at the county order's finger pointing upward.

Said very firmly.

"I don't dare to guarantee going to the imperial court, but it's just a county job, it's still easy!"

When the county magistrate heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.

"I knew that Brother Su had great powers."

"Now I am the county magistrate, and the world of the rising sun is the world of you and me."

"When I sit in the county, isn't this half of the Northland County still yours and mine?"

The county commander narrowed his already small eyes, showing great pride.

The head of the Su family also laughed.

At this moment, a person suddenly ran outside the courtyard.

"Prefectural order! Prefectural order, no! ”

"Someone is beating drums at the entrance of the government office, shouting for you to go."

"I still have the old man of Luyang Village with me!"

These words made both of them narrow.

Naluyang Village is a village that has not been forcibly bought many times.

In the end, if it is not for the prefectural order to personally bring people, they will go for the reason of collecting taxes.

I'm afraid the Su family won't be able to take it down at all.

For this reason, they are still not at ease, and they have sent people disguised as outsiders many times to inquire whether the other party has any intention of resisting.

When they found it once, they sent someone to beat it once.

Straight and then they didn't dare to say anything more.

I didn't expect that this time, it would still cause trouble.

The face of the head of the Su family was a little ugly, but the county order didn't care.

"What's the hurry, I want to see who he can find to support him!"

"Even if someone really comes out, can they still be higher than that one?"

The words of the county order made the head of the Su family agree.

He stood up and said.

"That's right!"

"I'll go with the county order to see which one I don't know what kind of goods are good!"

After saying that, the two of them rushed to the government with hundreds of retainers.

And at this moment, outside the government office.

Ying Xuan stood proudly.

On his side, Wang Cheng asked loudly the people who heard the movement.

"You can tell the truth."

"How much tax are you being charged?"

"And what is the reason for paying taxes?"

"Yushi will seek justice for the villagers and return to innocence!"

The people who came around whispered one by one.

But no one dared to say more.

The only one who is handsome.

But he looked at the silent Ying Xuan and asked.

"What can the folks do if they say it?"

"Can you still take the Su family and the county order?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly became even quieter.

No one expected this person to be so bold and dare to speak out to arrest the county order.

Wang Cheng narrowed his eyes even more.

"As long as you dare to show evidence."

"Why not?"

Who knew that the handsome man smiled contemptuously.

"You said you can take it?"

"If you don't show your identity, who wants to believe you."

"Besides, even if you have an identity, you can hold the county commander accountable."

"Can you do it in this county?"

"Just the hundreds of retainers of the Su family can let you stay here!"

The more the man spoke, the more stern his face became.

In the end, he looked straight at Yingxuan, who was speechless.

As if trying something.

Ying Xuan didn't say anything.

Just glanced at it coldly.

The momentum that overwhelms the universe, the gaze that looks down proudly.

The scene was instantly quiet.

"Who are you? Is there any evidence? ”

The indifferent voice made the man stiffen slightly.

He knew he had found the right person.

Suddenly bowed his head a little nervously.

"Down, Chen Ping."

"After traveling so far, I happen to know something inside!"
