Chapter 264: Completely torn his face
"Rats' nests and dog thieves, rampant expropriation, oppression of the people, private use of public weapons, torture into tricks, outrageous crimes, boiling public sentiment"
Who can see the injustice of the court, the excessive taxation and miscellaneous taxes, and the misery of the people."
In the Chengwen Temple, a group of gentry led by Zhang Yuanwai knelt down in front of countless tablets, sobbing in pain, seeing Zhang Yuanwai's voice was the loudest, the master of the Li family dug out saliva from his mouth and smeared it on the corner of his eyes, and snorted in his throat, "The imperial court officials, the royal nobles, and the country's temperament, should be the people of the world as the most important, and be the model of the world, but unexpectedly, they were dressed as beasts, regarded the people as bags, and trampled on them at will."
The students are ashamed, the grandmaster is disgraceful, and the family and country are unfortunate"
The onlookers were also infected by this miserable image and painful screams, their eyes were scarlet and very indignant, and as the news spread, more and more people gathered towards the Chengwen Temple, and then began to scold the court and the dog officials.
In this battle, Governor Yang was empty, and he also understood how his previous term left in disgrace, and was finally dismissed and investigated, these gentry can really coerce the public to blackmail the court, which is really hateful.
If it weren't for the princess's hands, there was a plan in the early stage, and if he encountered the same loss of career alone.
"Master Qian."
Master Qian stepped forward, "My lord, it's ready, Supervisor Wang Fulin has already gone out." ”
Governor Yang took a deep breath, "Let's go." ”
The door of the government was opened, and the Yang prefect took the people to Chengwen Miao, and when he arrived at the place, he saw that this place was already crowded with people, and the momentum was huge.
This time, the Yang Governor's Mansion brought fifty people, these fifty people did not do anything radical to the people, but only protected the Yang Governor's Mansion, and the people subconsciously retreated when they saw the officials, and then hugged them again.
Zhang Yuanwai and the others looked haggard and embarrassed, and when they saw Yang Zhifu, their eyes burst with resentment, and now, they have completely torn their faces.
Governor Yang's eyes swept away, and finally fell on Zhang Yuanwai's body, "Look at today's situation, Zhang Yuanwai, you are very aggrieved, do you think the court is unfair?" ”
Master Qian walked to the door and opened his throat and said to the onlookers, "The prefect came today to give everyone justice, since everyone feels that there is a grievance, then speak out and solve it today." “
"During this period, those who dared to make noise and make trouble were escorted to prison for the crimes of disturbing the public court and picking quarrels and provoking trouble."
The people who were in the middle of it were just about to speak when someone from the crowd said, "Then let's listen to what the adults say, Zhang Yuanwai is a good person, and I hope the adults will be fair." ”
"Yes, we are just ordinary people, not Diao people, as long as the court is facing us, there are us people, how can we think of making trouble?"
These are the people who are in charge of the flower and Ning Suo, they are mixed in and act as angels of justice, and the people arranged by Zhang Yuanwai and others have nothing to say for a while, and the scene is immediately quiet, and the money manager insists on allowing some people to stand in the temple so that they can hear more clearly.
At the same time, it was arranged for the words that people had just said to be heard, so that everyone who came today could hear them.
Master Qian asked people to carry the table, but there were no stools, after all, sitting in front of the tablets was not respectful enough.
Master Qian opened the file and began to count the taxes and grains owed by the people present, "In the eighteenth year of the Yuan Dynasty, the wind and rain were smooth, the towns and cities to which Yongcheng belonged were all harvested, and the Zhang family handed over 500 percent of the grain tax on more than 5,600 acres of fields, and the remaining 50% were IOUs, and it was agreed to make up for it in the coming year. ”
"In the nineteenth year of Yuan Qi, the locust plague occurred, the grain production of the towns under Yongcheng was reduced by fifty percent, the imperial court reduced the grain tax by fifty percent, and the grain tax was paid by two percent for more than 5,600 acres of fields under the name of the Zhang family, and the remaining eighty percent were made with IOUs, and it was agreed to make up for it in the coming year."
"In the twentieth year of the Yuan Dynasty, there was a flood, and the grain production of the towns to which the city belonged was reduced by two percent, and the imperial court reduced the grain tax by two percent."
The government may not act, but the record file will never be less than a record, Master Qian's thought is a stick of incense, and none of the Zhang, Zhao, Li and others present can pay the grain tax.
Zhang Yuanwai wanted to refute, but Master Qian raised his hand and raised his voice, "In the eighteenth year of the Apocalypse, the Zhang family owed fifty percent of the tax, and sold 50,000 catties of grain in October of that year and 30,000 catties of grain in November."
"In the nineteenth year of the Apocalypse, the Zhang family owed eighty percent of the tax, sold 50,000 catties of grain at a price higher than 30 percent of the market in October of that year, sold 50,000 catties of grain in November, manipulated grain prices in the following three years, sold 200,000 catties of various types of grain, cut off the grain supply in the city in April of the same year, so that the price of grain soared, and then threw out 100,000 catties of grain at a high price again."
"Twenty Years of the Apocalypse"
As these messages were read one by one, Zhang Yuanwai and the others flashed panic on their faces, not understanding where the yamen got these things, and almost subconsciously decided that it was Governor Yang who had planted people in each family.
In fact, Governor Yang's Mansion did install people, but the information found was not so detailed, and a large part of it was provided by the palace, which shows that the palace has long wanted to clean up these people.
The messenger spread these things as quickly as possible, and the onlookers were in an uproar, and someone said loudly: "I just say where do these rich people need us to be pitied? ”
"Is there grain to sell or not to pay grain tax?"
"The locust plague was a serious reduction in production that year, and the price of food in the city was one price a day, can these rich people really want to make decisions for us?"
Some people took the lead, and many people began to echo it, after all, they were all people who had bought high-priced grain at the beginning, and soon some people began to scold Zhang Yuanwai and others for being rich and unkind.
Someone pulled public opinion back, "This is all said by the yamen itself, but there is evidence, who knows if it was casually said to slander Zhang Yuanwai and others, Zhang Yuanwai and they saved us in a serious way and gave us porridge." ”
"After earning our money and giving us a few bowls of porridge again, this abacus is good, and we still have to be grateful to him?"
The two sides began to quarrel again, and Governor Yang looked at Zhang Yuanwai and the others calmly, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
Zhang Yuanwai and others wanted to continue to cry in the temple, crying officials reversed black and white and oppressed the people, at this time Lin Xun came.
The people outside were calmed down again, Lin Xun's gaze swept in front of the countless tablets, and he turned around and spoke, "The sages in the Chengwen Temple are all transparent and open-minded people who distinguish between right and wrong, if they have spirits in the sky, and they know that they will be used like this after they die, they are afraid that they will be angry and die again, right?"
The princess asked him to come here to fight with words and drown these people with spittle stars, but she felt that the princess was too benevolent and overestimated these people, and where were these characters worthy of him. The six-product trial of the dignified palace is taking a lot of money?
