Chapter 1383: The Drawbacks of the New Law (Part I)
Yang Huairen ordered four Xiang soldiers to enter the tent to speak, and when they finished saluting, Yang Huairen asked, "What's your name?" ”
The leading Xiang Jun replied, "Back to the prince, the villain Li Chaoren." ”
"Superman?"
Yang Huairen was laughed at, "Good name." How did you get into the Yangzhou Xiang Army? ”
Li Chaoren suddenly became a little ashamed, "The villain was originally from Linzi, Qingzhou, and he accidentally killed a tax collector who oppressed the villagers in the countryside before he was sent to Yangzhou. ”
"Oh? We're still fellow countrymen, haha. ”
Li Chaoren didn't know why Yang Huairen called a few of them into the account to ask questions, and he was inevitably a little nervous, but he didn't expect Yang Huairen to talk to them so politely, and he didn't have the feeling of being on top of a prince in his imagination.
I also remembered that the prince was also sitting in the crowd to eat like the other soldiers of the Xiang army just now, and I heard the other forbidden soldiers talk about the fact that the prince used to train and eat and sleep together with the soldiers of the Long Wuwei, so I naturally felt very novel.
What surprised him even more was that the prince actually climbed up with him, which made him even more strange, so he asked casually, "The prince is also from Qingzhou?" ”
Yang Huairen said with a smile, "My hometown Qizhou is not far from Qingzhou. ”
"That's, that's." Li Chaoren didn't know why Yang Huairen did this, so he didn't dare to speak much, so he had to deal with it in harmony.
Yang Huairen said again, "It seems that in our land of Qilu, the folk customs are still a little strong, and you dare to kill even the tax collectors, but you have not been sentenced to the punishment of Dabi after killing the people in the yamen, you have a great life." ”
Yang Huairen saw Li Chaoren's strong body and the golden seal on his face, thinking that Li Chaoren was a bandit, but he didn't expect that he was still a murderer, and the tax collector who killed the yamen was not beheaded, but was only distributed for thousands of miles, which means that this person must have some background.
Under curiosity, Yang Huairen deliberately used words to trick him to see how he explained.
Li Chaoren smiled bitterly, "The prince didn't know anything, so he listened to the villain's details." The villain did kill a public man in the yamen, but the villain also said that he was killed by mistake, so Linzi County Zuncai sentenced the villain to the crime of flowing thousands of miles to fill the army. ”
"Missed? How do you lose your hand? Huang Dayin on the side asked with a smile.
Li Chaoren went on to explain, "The villain's family lives in Lijiazhuang on the edge of the water outside Linzi City, and the two sides of the river are also fertile fields for dozens of miles, although the output is not as good as the paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River, compared with the ordinary dry land, the land in the hometown is also rich.
In the early years of Li Jiazhuang, there were also people whose ancestors opened a national temple with Taizu, so our Li family is also a local clan in the local area, and there are not a few people who like to dance knives and guns, and the villain has also practiced some fist and foot kung fu since he was a child.
Although the population of the tribe is large, as long as it is a good year, the farmland on both sides of the river can still make the population of the tribe fed, clothed and warm, and have no worries about food and clothing.
But since last year, the imperial court has used the new policy of green seedlings, and the government has unified the reservation of grain seeds for the people, and then distributed them for the people to sow seeds in the spring.
In the past, the common people were bred and preserved by themselves, and it has long been a habit, but the tax collector in charge of this matter at the official auction acted rudely and did not allow the people to have any disobedience.
The people in their hometown felt that it was not impossible for the court to do this, and there was no big difference between their own preservation and the government's preservation.
However, when the government distributed the grain after the year, it was returned with a loan and interest, so that the people did not understand.
The villain was not convinced, and said in his heart that this was confiscated or confiscated? Why do you have to borrow money for your own food?
The villain led the brothers of the clan to the tax collector to theorize, and the tax collector actually argued that the grain paid by the people last year was grain, which could be deducted from the grain tax in the coming year, and the people did not suffer a loss, and they should thank the government.
The villain doesn't understand, where does this come from? Are grain and grain the same thing? How much is a bucket of grain worth? How much is the bucket grain worth? Isn't the government even aware of this?
Later, the villain finally understood that this was a pit for the common people by the government to change the law, so he was angry in his heart, so he punched the tax collector. ”
Yang Huairen exclaimed, "You kid is so good at martial arts, you beat a big living person to death with one punch?" ”
Li Chaoren's face suddenly showed remorse, "The prince said with a smile, how can a villain have such ability?" At that time, he just beat the tax collector and sat down on the ground, and he was still clamoring to go back and call the government to arrest the villain, and he was fine when he left.
It's just that the tax collector didn't really call the county government officer, and when the tax collector came to the door the next day, he directly put a set of flail on the villain's head.
The villain was puzzled, and after asking, he learned that the tax collector who beat him yesterday fell into the water and drowned on the way back to the city.
The villain knew that he had hit the tolerance in the yamen, and he couldn't escape with a board, but suddenly he died, where would the villain admit it?
So he told Linzi County Zun about the beating, and the county Zun didn't believe that the villain killed a strong tax collector with a punch, but the tax collector's Chang Sui said that the villain was a master of the rivers and lakes, and it would trigger internal force.
He also said that after the tax collector was beaten, he was able to walk and run, but halfway through, his eyes, nose and mouth suddenly bled together, and he was crossing the bridge at that time, so he fainted and fell into the river and drowned.
The villain is wronged in his heart, the villain has practiced some fists, kicks and sticks since he was a child, but those are all some unpopular tricks, the villain is a summoner after all, not to mention any masters of internal strength, martial arts can't be talked about.
But the county lord actually believed it, so he couldn't help but sentence the villain to be executed. The villain was wronged, but fortunately, the villain's family invited the patriarch of the clan to intercede.
Hearing others mention, the patriarch went twice, and the county did not let go, and later took a bucket to the county office, and the county lord was gracious, and the autumn queen was sentenced to a thousand miles to fill the army.
Originally, the villain thought that although he had temporarily saved his life, he could be exiled to the borderland, and he was afraid that he would not live for too long, but he didn't expect that in the end, he would be exiled to a good place like Yangzhou, so he picked up a life and came back. ”
Yang Huairen smiled, Li Chaoren's experience is really interesting, but he can stand up and speak up when the people in his hometown are oppressed by the government, and he is not afraid of power to punch the tax collector, and he can be regarded as a hero.
As for how the tax collector died, it is not easy to judge just by listening to these words, maybe the tax collector had a hidden disease, or Li Chaoren beat him too hard, and the tax collector who happened to be hit had a cerebral hemorrhage.
Some intracerebral hemorrhages may not be detected at the time, but it is very likely that the bleeding will occur and die after a few hours or days.
Guessing so, although he did miss, Linzi County Zun did not wronged him.
