Chapter 831: Severe Punishment

The fat man wiped the cold sweat on his head, he was really scared to death when he sat in the carriage, and he was really afraid that he would become a corpse if he was not careful.

"Don't worry, with me and Lin Yi here, you can't get out of trouble."

There are so many forbidden troops here, even if someone wants to attack him, he will not dare to assassinate himself blatantly, he will definitely be cautious, he and Lin Yi have already made arrangements.

The assassin was captured, and he had to wait until Pei Xian to deal with it.

On the way, Lu Cancan's mood was a little heavy, Lin Yi accompanied her silently, he knew what Lu Cancan was worried about.

"Don't worry, I'm by your side."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.

At this moment, in the Gu Mansion in the capital, Gu Moxi was reading a book under the lamp.

"Master, Miss Lu has left the capital safely."

"Well, since it's okay, you don't have to meddle in the rest."

After leaving the capital, Lin Yi will naturally protect Cancan's safety, if the people he sent follow Cancan all the time, it may arouse Lin Yi's suspicions.

The arrow that he shot at Wang Hu last time in order to save Cancan should have made Lin Yi aware of his existence, and Gu Moxi had to be careful.

It is not yet possible to let others know that their power exists.

He put down the book, the things that the emperor explained this time were really not easy to do, and I heard that Yang Yan had also gone to Pei County.

I can't intervene in this matter, and if I leave the capital without the emperor's will, it will only make the emperor doubt himself.

Everything can only rely on Lu Cancan himself.

After leaving the capital, there was no need to make a big fanfare, they moved forward lightly instead, and on the way, Lu Cancan saw many displaced people, who took their wives and children to beg along the streets.

"Are these people homeless because of the enclosure?" Lu Cancan asked.

Lin Yi stepped forward to stop a man who looked yellow and thin, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"Go and escape."

The man sighed, originally he could live and work in peace and contentment by guarding the one-third of an acre, but later his field was occupied by an official, and he was forced to put his fingerprint on the title deed.

Either they will become tenants of the officials' families, and their children and grandchildren will have to become their slaves, or they will have to leave their homes.

He had no choice but to leave the place where his ancestors had lived for generations with his whole family.

According to Dayan's law, if you enter the lowly rank, you will not be able to participate in the imperial examination, and there is no way to leave the master's home, and you will be enslaved for generations.

Usually only those who have broken the law will be pariahed, but these officials have no law to persecute those innocent people.

They had no choice but to swallow their anger and go elsewhere to beg for a living, and put their fingerprints on the documents for the transfer of land, so that the officials would justifiably take the land for themselves.

And these people have become displaced people, and they can only go away.

"It's really unreasonable!"

Lu Can was speechless, she knew that those officials were excessive, but she didn't expect them to go too far.

"We can go to Pei County tomorrow, don't be angry first, finding the account book is the most important thing."

It's not just here that this happens, something similar happens to the whole Dayan.

The foundation of the state is the people, and if the people are restless, the country will be restless, and if this continues, sooner or later it will lead to great disaster.

Lu Cancan deeply felt that he had a heavy responsibility, and he must find a way to find that account book.

Although the emperor knew that this account book did exist, he didn't know whose hand this account book was, so he would give Lu Cancan a chance to leave the capital and give her a chance to find it.

After Lu Cancan arrived in Pei County, local officials, large and small, came out to greet him, and it was a peaceful scene.

"Greetings to the county lord."

The officials had already prepared a reception banquet and a residence for Lu Cancan, although it was not as good as being in the capital, but it was also very luxurious.

Thinking of the people who had eaten the last meal with yellow faces and thin muscles, and then looked at the fat-headed and big-eared officials who ate one by one, Lu Cancan's anger rose in his heart.

Lin Yi gently touched Lu Cancan's finger on the side to calm her down.

Now is not the time.

Lu Cancan endured his anger and looked at those officials with a smile, they were all patting on the back, and between his words, Peixian was a good place for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and hoped that Lu Cancan would be able to help them say a few good words in front of the emperor after he went back.

Because Pei County is Lu Cancan's fiefdom, there is a garden specially built for Lu Cancan for her to live in, and the gifts sent by those officials are piled up all over the room, all of which are some rare treasures.

"A small Pei County official is so rich, I really underestimate them."

These people have a nest of snakes and rats, and they don't know how much silver they have looted by enclosures.

"If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, I think those people think that you are the county lord who doesn't understand anything, which is just convenient for you to check the account books."

Lu Cancan nodded and asked if the killer had confessed.

Lin Yi smiled and said it's almost over.

Maybe it's because Lin Yi is always very gentle in front of him, and he rarely loses his temper with himself, and sometimes Lu Cancan forgets that he is a general, and there are some things that he just doesn't want Lu Cancan to see.

In the dungeon, the joints of the killer's body twisted in a strange position, looking very eerie.

His whole body was now like he had been pricked by a thousand needles, and he was in pain.

"Let me die, let me die."

His dry lips cracked with blood, but Lin Yi didn't let him die.

A forbidden soldier brought a basin of water and put it in front of the killer, and the killer saw that the basin of water had straight eyes and kept licking his lips, but he hadn't drunk water for many days, and even saliva was no longer secreted.

"Tell me who sent you, and I'll give you a good time."

This is Lin Yi's last mercy.

The killer's gaze was blank, but in just two days, his willpower had collapsed.

In the past, they only knew that Lin Yi was a young general, and these killers thought that Lin Yi was just a skill, but they didn't expect that once he fell into the hands of Lin Yi, he would be like a devil.

Lin Zimo is also a military general, although Jiang Li is a princess, he is also a mountain bandit, Lin Yi grew up in such an environment since he was a child, although he is very gentle with his friends and Lu Cancan, but he will never be merciful to his enemies.

To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself, Lin Zimo told Lin Yi that mercy is not in charge of the army, and sometimes, when you should be ruthless, you must be ruthless.

The killer completely collapsed under Lin Yi's cold gaze, and he muttered, "I said, I said." ”
