Chapter 1136: Cooking and Killing
The pavilion was silent for a while, and Tingli Sun Hao glanced at Yin Ling Jun, and said indifferently: "Yin Ling Jun, you are not feeling well, this turtle soup should be enjoyed in the future." β
Yin Ling Jun was stunned, and before he could speak, over there, Doctor Sanlu also spoke: "Yin Ling Jun, I am also unwell below. β
As he spoke, Qu Zhi got up directly and arched his hand coldly: "Yin Ling Jun, thank you for your hospitality today." β
"Ahhh This... Please stay and listen to my explanation. DoctorΒ·Β·Β· Doctor..."
Yin Ling Jun saw Sun Haoyu bending to leave at the same time, and hurriedly dissuaded him, but saw that the two ignored him at all, and got into the carriage without looking back, and then the convoy went straight to Yin Ling.
"Alas~~" Watching the convoy go away, Yin Lingjun sighed anxiously and resentfully: "The big thing is over, which bastard is going to put me to death!"
At this time, Ji Yi, a guest of the Yinling Monarch Sect, walked over and asked with a solemn face, "Your Majesty, what should I do now?" β
"What to do, what to do, how do I know what to do, as soon as the messenger sent by the king to investigate arrived at the Yin Tomb, he heard the people complaining about my mistreatment of the people in full view of everyone." Yin Lingjun anxiously grabbed his hair with one hand, and the flesh of his whole body trembled and said: "If this matter reaches the ears of the king and confirms my crime of mistreating the people, then I will be finished." β
Ji Yi was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then spoke: "Your Majesty, according to the six monarchs, Tingli is against the king's change of law, and the three doctors are also dissatisfied with the king's implementation of the new law, since the two envoys are against the king's change of law, then this matter is not bad to the extreme." β
"Hmm!" Yin Lingjun's eyes lit up, and he immediately saluted Ji Yi and said, "Please save me, sir." β
"Don't worry." Ji Yi soothed: "Your Excellency, if you want to escape this catastrophe, you still need to bribe the two envoys with heavy gifts, and at the same time, the monarch can also explain to the envoys, just say: The monarch is sympathetic to the people and has opened the Daze Mountains and forests to the surrounding feudal monarchs and the people of various counties, and the woman who sang came from the surrounding counties to cut wood."
Therefore, the woman was complaining about the new law, not complaining about the king's mistreatment of the people.
If the two envoys were really against the change, then they would naturally believe in the king. β
Yin Lingjun nodded, and then he hesitated, "What if any of them have different intentions?" β
"Don't worry, if any of them support the new law, then even if there is no such thing, then they will find faults. In this case, what is there to worry about! β
"Hmm!" Yin Lingjun nodded and said: "What Mr. said is extremely true, this gentleman will go and take one or two heavy treasures to present to the two messengers." β
Saying that, Yin Lingjun immediately walked towards his carriage, only took two steps, Yin Lingjun looked back at Ji Yi behind him, and said with a face full of resentment: "Sir, immediately send someone to catch the singer who sang indiscriminately and find out her details." If the woman is a woman from a nearby county and comes here to steal firewood, give her to the messenger.
If she is a ruler, then find her family. β
At this time, Yin Lingjun spit out a word coldly in his mouth: "Cook!" The whole family was killed. β
"Hmph, if you want to harm Benjun, then Benjun will want the life of your whole family."
As he spoke, Yin Lingjun got into the carriage with resentment.
After Yin Lingjun left, Ji Yi immediately led a team of soldiers to rush in the direction where the song came from.
Soon, Ji Yi found a woman about eighteen or nineteen years old in the woods, dressed in old linen clothes and with a yellow face and thin muscles.
When the woman saw a group of soldiers coming around, she immediately threw down a large bundle of firewood weighing about seventy or eighty pounds on her back, and then fell to the ground, and said in horror and horror: "Warriors, I am a woman of a good family under the rule of Yinling Jun, and I have a neighbor with household registration as evidence, not a thief in the wilderness, nor a fugitive, but here to chop wood, please don't arrest me as a slave." β
"A good girl!" Ji Yi made an appointment with the soldiers who surrounded the woman, looked at her and said very indifferently: "You have a certificate on you." β
"Yes, yes, yes." The woman responded anxiously three times, hurriedly took out a wooden talisman from her waist, and then held the wooden talisman high with both hands, and pressed her forehead tightly to the ground to show that she was harmless.
Seeing this, Ji Yi quickly walked over, took the wooden talisman, quickly glanced at the wooden talisman, and then said with a gloomy smile: "Sure enough, it is the people under the rule of the king." β
As she spoke, Ji Yi looked at her with a cold gaze and asked, "You were singing just now." β
The woman didn't know why, and she didn't dare to look up, but she fell to the ground and answered, "It's the little woman singing." β
"Okay, what a bad woman, it's you who is looking for you." Ji Yi said angrily: "Come on, catch her, and then go to her house." β
When the woman heard that these people were going to arrest her, she hurriedly said, "Everyone, I am a woman from a good family, why do you arrest people for no reason?" Aren't you afraid that the Yin Ling King will ask for sin? β
The woman was so anxious that she shouted again and again, but no one responded to her, whether it was Ji Yi or the soldiers around her.
After a short time, when they arrived at the woman's village, several soldiers immediately rushed to the woman's house, and soon dragged her noisy in-laws out.
At this time, Ji Yi had already set up three cauldrons in the village, and the people in the village also rushed over one after another.
"What is it that is gathering us together this early in the morning? Could it be that the king wants to recruit Ding again? β
"I don't know what's going on, but there are nobles from the city who have come and arrested the daughter-in-law of the third uncle's family."
"Spare your life..."
"Help..."
As soon as the surrounding villagers heard someone calling for help, they immediately turned their heads to see that an acquaintance had been arrested, and their hearts were all tight.
"Why were even the third uncle and his wife arrested?"
"The third uncle fought for the king and lost an arm, this is a meritorious person, why do you want to arrest him?"
"Yes, why was such a good person as the third uncle arrested?"
"yes, yes..."
At this time, Ji Yi saw that the prisoner had arrived, and that the villager had almost arrived, so he immediately asked loudly: "Everyone knows that the taxes of my Chu country are extremely heavy, and once there is a war in a disaster year, the people will either die of hunger and poverty, or they will become thieves. Fortunately, the king's mercy and light payment in the fiefdom gave you a chance to survive, and at the same time avoided the fate of your exile as a thief.
You say, "Is the king a living grace to you, and is the king the lord of benevolence?" β
When the people around heard this, they all looked at Ji Yi with a fierce face, then looked at the surrounding soldiers, and finally glanced at the woman lying on the ground who didn't know whether she was alive or dead, all of them were frightened, and they didn't dare to object, and they didn't open their mouths to agree.
At this time, Li Zheng of this village saw that Ji Yi's face was ugly because no one answered, and at the same time, he also knew that these villagers were all subjects given to Yinling Jun by the King of Chu, and life and death were all in the hands of Yinling Jun, so he didn't dare to refute, but responded loudly: "Your Majesty is merciful." β
After Li Zheng spoke, the surrounding villagers immediately reacted and shouted one after another: "Your Majesty is merciful. β
"Okay." Seeing that all the villagers were shouting, Ji Yi nodded with a smile and said loudly: "It seems that you still know how to be grateful, and you know that the king has done his best to you." β
"But." Ji Yi's face sank, and he said angrily: "Now that someone is openly criticizing and cursing the monarch in front of the public, you say, what should I do with this kind of person." β
When the surrounding villagers heard this, the sparse shouts suddenly stopped, and then, most of the people's faces instantly showed fear.
Recently, there have been many people in the village who have openly criticized Yin Lingjun.
Because of the poverty of Yinling, and because of the endless war of Chu before, and because the king had publicly announced that he would rest with the people, Yinling still recruited a strong man from every family, and also because some people planned to flee to the surrounding counties, but the strong man in the family was still with the king of Yinling, so he could not get away for the time being.
In this case, coupled with the imminent spring ploughing, all the people's families lack a major labor force, and the lack of a labor force is enough, but the people still have to provide for an additional strong man. The people, who are already almost poor and can't open the pot, now have no spare energy to support a strong man who only eats and does not work.
In this way, during this period of time, the villagers in the village have complained, and many people have begun to curse Yin Lingjun.
At this moment, the villagers who were gathered were all silent when they heard Ji Yi's question, and the village, which was still full of buzzing sounds, instantly quieted down.
At this time, Ji Yi saw that the village was speechless, and saw the surrounding villagers with fear, so he sneered: "Since you don't know what to do, then I tell you, on the orders of the king, criticize the king, and kill the whole family." β
"Cook?!" When the surrounding villagers heard this, they all took two or three steps back in fear, and they didn't even dare to look at Ji Yi directly.
At this time, Ji Yi glanced at the surrounding villagers, and then pointed to the woman's family of three and shouted: "Come on, put this family of three into the pot and cook!" β
