Does Ma Tan have the ability to govern Longxi County? This was a suspicion of the local gentry.

If he doesn't, then there is no problem at all with Ma Tan. Checking household registration and implementing the Han law are simply impossible to find out under the cover of the scholars without some ability.

At that time, the Shi clan was completely non-violent and non-cooperative, so that Ma Tan could achieve nothing. Later, when the Qiang people came out to plunder, they made a stumbling block behind them and reported to the Qiang people, causing the Qiang people to be in chaos.

In this way, no matter how hard Ma Yan's background is, he has to be transferred and replaced as soon as possible.

After all, this is the home of their native warriors, and they are not afraid of foreign officials not cooperating at all.

However, they soon found out that they were very wrong, because Ma Tan did not play his cards according to common sense at all.

Dozens of Shu officials read out the warrants in the streets and alleys with Ma Tan, calling on the local leaders to expose the dirty affairs of these scholars. On that day, anyone who preyed on the common people and bullied men and women could report to the official.

If you are afraid of reprisals, it doesn't matter, just cover your face in a place where no one is and find an official to report it quietly. Ma Taishou was personally sent by the prime minister of the Han Dynasty to implement the Han law, and he would definitely not be in the same stream as the scholars.

The effect of Ma Tan's decree was immediate. Because of the anonymous report, many Qiantou who were afraid of the might of the clan also thought of reporting.

Cover your face and drape yourself in rags, and the officials will not recognize who you are.

In just a few days, a large number of crimes against the children of the Shi clan were reported to Ma Yan's case.

Then Ma Jian directly took the guards to arrest people in person, who dared to stop them and arrest them together.

"What? Ma Jian sent someone to arrest Wu'er? The head of the Chen family looked at the subordinates who came to report in a hurry, and his face was so ugly that he was almost about to eat people.

"That's right, the head of the family, that Ma Jian is very shameless. We were protecting Childe on the road, and suddenly he rushed out with someone from the side, threw us aside and arrested Childe. ”

This subordinate had a blue nose and swollen face, and replied with a sad face.

"They are extraordinary and murderous, we are no match at all, and several of us have broken hands."

"You bunch of shit!!" The face of the head of the Chen family is extremely ugly, Ma Yan, what's going on, don't talk about martial arts and arrest people directly, right?

Before he could make any moves, suddenly a large group of people outside rushed in crying and shouting.

"O master! You're going to call the shots for us! That Ma Jian is simply a hooligan! ”

"My Ya'er went to buy a rouge, and was robbed on the way back!"

"A dignified county guard, who actually led people to kidnap and extort, what kind of system is this!"

Seeing the members of the various side branches of the family jumping out and crying together, the head of the Chen family's face darkened.

More than one of you've been caught?

"Quick! Prepare the horse, follow me to the county office as soon as possible, and ask Ma Jian for an explanation!! The Chen family almost had a heart attack in anger, but thinking about the clansmen he was captured, he still gritted his teeth and shouted.

With his entourage, he rode on a fast horse and went on a rampage all the way, heading towards the county office.

When he arrived at the county office, the head of the Chen family saw the head of the Qian, who was in the three circles and the outside three circles, watching the play. At the gate of the county office, Ma Tan stood aside, and a row of soldiers in front of him was pressed to the ground.

Behind them, dozens of soldiers armed with five-colored sticks were waiting in battle.

To the astonishment of the Chen family master, many of the scholars who were pressed to the ground were not from their clan. In other words, Ma Jian treats the Longxi clan equally, and no one lets it go.

Thinking of this, the head of the Chen family felt inexplicably less uncomfortable.

"Folks, according to the law, these are the least illegal ones, and we will start with them."

Ma Jian took a roll of bamboo slips, looked at the lively people below, and said with a smile.

"Of course, thank you for coming, and I will send someone to send half a catty of millet to each as a gift for you."

"The Commander is wise!!"

A group of people who were attracted to see the excitement were overjoyed when they heard that there were still gifts to take, and they shouted together.

"Okay, but don't make a fuss now, it's time for us to judge." Ma Tan said with a smile, pointing to a few scholars who were pressed to the ground.

"None of them have murders, but they have done a lot of dirty things to bully men and women. Of those arrested by the Officer, the offence was the least severe, and each was given fifty strokes and imprisoned for one month before being released. ”

"But don't be disappointed, for the next half month, this official will be here every day to supervise the execution. The criminals in the back are all making big mistakes, and several of them will be executed directly! ”

"If you have time, you can come and see it at any time, and the official will give everyone present half a catty of corn!"

Ma Tan's command, which seemed to be a cerebral thrombosis, caused a burst of cheers from the leaders. If there is excitement, you can still get benefits, which is not happy for anyone.

For a while, the people forgot the folk title of "madman" and "tyrannical person" for this county guard, and praised the county guard for his wisdom.

"Ma Junshou, I'm afraid you're a little immoral!" At this time, the head of the Han family had already arrived, and the grumpy head of the family came directly with the family.

When he saw that his family members were pressed to the ground and were about to be punished with a cane, the face of the head of the Han family was extremely ugly.

"Are you still a gentleman? Aren't you afraid of the world's rebuke? ”

"Master Han, you came in time, as a local talent, why don't you come to supervise the execution with the county guard?" Ma Tan said very happily when he saw the people from the family coming.

"These are all felons, and they have all pleaded guilty after a personal trial. Now is the time of execution, and the world is still the first to be executed. ”

"Ma Yan! Do you really want to be the enemy of the world? The head of the Chen family couldn't sit still, and immediately stood up and shouted.

While yelling, he also gave his subordinates a look, and the subordinates immediately understood, turned around and yelled at the onlookers.

"Look at what! Do you dare to get involved in the affairs of the Chen family? Is it because of the prestige of the Chen clan that it is not enough? ”

Their negotiations with Ma Jian themselves need to be conducted privately, and if they can, they should try not to spread it. Once the trouble gets bigger, these may be opportunities for Ma Jian to brush up his prestige, and the family also understands this truth.

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding Qianshou suddenly became timid. After all, the prestige of the local warriors is not ordinarily high, and no one dares to touch their moldy heads.

However, before the man could say a word, suddenly an arrow shot out, straight through his throat.

"A subordinate without official rank threatens the people of his official position on the street, Chen family master, you are so majestic." Ma Yan put away his crossbow and said without changing his face.

"Ma Yan! Can't punish the doctor! Have you forgotten all the things you have learned? You're doing this as an enemy of the world's corporal doctors! The Han family's face turned red with anger, and he gritted his teeth and roared.

"What kind of scholars are a few guilty people?" Ma Tan sneered, and suddenly shouted loudly to everyone.

"I, Ma Yan, am the Taishou of Longxi appointed by the Han Dynasty, and my duty is to implement Han law. In front of the law, whether you are a leader or a scholar, as long as you commit crimes, you will be dealt with equally! ”

"Now, execution!"
