Along the way, Shaxian government officials opened the road, and stepped on the bridge in the back village again, the heavy rain that night made the water under the bridge rise sharply, the only entrance and exit of the back village This bridge has been for several years, the small bridge in disrepair looks delicate in the heavy rain, and there is no majesty on the river water that swells after the heavy rain, maybe another heavy rain will collapse, but the village is too poor, so everyone can only watch, at most just add something If it is said that it is to build a new bridge, everyone is unwilling, every family is not rich, and the new bridge has to pay for it.
Besides, there are only a dozen families in the village now, and the rest of the families have moved out to live in the new village, and the remaining dozen or so families cannot afford the relocation money collected by the government, so they can only stay here.
Today, as soon as he entered the village, Ling Yan and the servants were surrounded by almost all the villagers, except for a few who were in the prime of life, all of them were women, children, old and young, these villagers gathered in front of Ling Yan all had anger on their faces, and they spoke the dialect of Hezhou Ling Yan couldn't understand, but Zhu Si explained very patiently on the side.
"Why are you government cannibals here again, do you have to drive everyone to a dead end before you give up?"
"If we don't move, if you force us again, it's a big deal to force us to death."
Ling Yan looked puzzled, what was going on, and a familiar official saw that Ling Yan's eyes were wrong and hurriedly explained.
"My lord, in the past, we wanted the land in Houcun, so we let the people in this village move out, but these people in front of us didn't want to, so we cut off food to Houcun, and didn't allow any shops to sell things to them.
The bridge we passed by just now is also not allowed to be repaired by any craftsman.
At the beginning, the county magistrate said that the county government asked these people to move out for their own good, but these people didn't know what to do.
However, the county magistrate also said that the people of the back village must move out, but they have to give three taels of silver at the same time to move out, after all, it took a lot of effort to take down the chassis of the new village county government.
However, according to the lowly position, the land was originally owned by the county magistrate, and he only did this to get more money. ” "Hmph, this dead county magistrate is really majestic."
It's a pity that Ling Yan hasn't seen the Shaxian county magistrate who was killed by Tuxi Mountain, but when he meets him, that county magistrate is estimated to be dead.
According to the information obtained these days, this Shaxian county magistrate has done a lot of evil, and he has not done a single good thing, but has done countless bad things.
How could such a county parent official stay, this was another reason why Ling Yan deliberately let go of the five people who were mad.
"Tell the people that I am here to be the master of the people."
Ling Yan said, and the officials also stepped forward to explain, but the excited people couldn't listen at all, and there were seventy or eighty old men who rushed towards the officials with the crutches they said, and the officials didn't fight back, but just surrounded Ling Yan to protect him.
"Please don't get excited, I am the minister sent by the imperial court, and this time I came to hear that the county order of Shaxian County secretly killed some people in Hou Village, and I came to investigate."
These days, Ling Yan took the time to learn a little Hezhou's words, although the words were not very pure, but they were a little interesting.
The villagers couldn't hear anything else, but they could hear the four words of the imperial court's minister.
Why didn't everyone react when they heard it, and only then did they react Minister Qincha This seems to be a powerful official who is even more powerful than the Emperor of Hezhou, the old man with high morality asked everyone to stop immediately, and he walked up to Ling Yan.
"Are you really Lord Chincha?"
"Yes, I am the minister appointed by the imperial court."
"Lord Qincha, make the decisions for the grass people!"
The old man knelt down, tears instantly welling up in his eyes, and everyone behind him also knelt down and begged him to call the shots in front of Ling Yan.
Ling Yan helped everyone up one by one and said, "Fellow villagers, I will definitely seek justice for everyone." ", swearing.
Then the villagers took Ling Yan into the house, and Ling Yan also asked the old woman what was going on, why the old woman didn't come, but learned that the old man had passed away last night, and everyone had just buried the old man today.
"Alas!
Zhu Si, go visit the old man.
Ling Yan had regret in her heart, she thought that this time she would let the old man get a fair experience, but she had just come and heard that the old man had passed away, so she should have left with regret and resentment.
Ling Yan also saw the strong man, and he smiled and said, "Big brother strong man, do you still recognize me?"
” Zhuangzi rubbed his eyes and suddenly remembered.
"My lord, are you the son who stayed at the eldest lady's house that day?"
"Yes, Brother Zhuangzi, you didn't want to tell us what happened in the old man's house at the beginning, you should have concerns at that time, now I am the minister of the Qincha, don't worry about anything, tell me, I will seek justice for the eldest mother."
Zhuangzi burst into tears and kept kowtowing to Ling Yan, "Thank you, thank you, thank you."
Auntie, there is a spirit underground, and she must be able to rest in peace!
” Ling Yan hurriedly asked him to get up and asked him to tell him what had happened, and then everyone talked about the suffering they had suffered over the years and the threat they had received from the government.
The more he listened to Ling Yan, the more angry he became, he originally thought that even though not all the people in the territory of the Taizheng Dynasty were carefree, they should at least be well fed and clothed, but when they arrived in Hezhou, they found that there was still such darkness, and this darkness was even a hundred times more powerful than in the capital.
How can such officialdom do not investigate thoroughly.
Yang Yingfeng, Yang Yingfeng, you, Hezhou Lingyin, are really coming to an end.
No matter what happens this time, you have to have this Ling Yin, even if Yang Xiao goes out in person, he can't stop it.
The degree of decay and darkness in Hezhou's officialdom is beyond imagination, and the severity of the people's suffering is even more unimaginable.
The life of the people in the back village is not even as good as the people of the Jiutu tribe who lingered in the time of war, and the forced expropriation of the government and the arbitrary oppression of the local gentry made the people miserable, how could they live such a life.
"Brother Zhuangzi, do you have paper and pen here?"
Ling Yan asked, Zhuang Zi searched everywhere and found a thick hard brush left by the old village chief in the village and it was almost dry and grinding, Ling Yan didn't pick it, he wrote a letter, and after writing it, Ling Yan handed it to a servant and said: "Send this letter to the Yang family immediately, and you must hand it over to the old lady Yang Xiao by hand, do you hear it?"
” "Understood!"

Ling Yan made a promise to everyone and said, "Fellow villagers, the imperial court will not let go of these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and I want to get justice for everyone."
Here I will tell you the bottom, Hezhou Ling Yin Yang Yingfeng will definitely not hold the position of Ling Yin again, and the imperial court will definitely not let such a faint official govern Hezhou. ”
