The happy life of a prodigal

But what?

But I still ruined it!Open your eyes and take a look, not to mention the Central Plains Road, in this land of Gyeonggi, how many people are suffering, and how many people are suffering from the smell of wine and meat?

I am heartbroken!I am guilty of this sky, this land, I am ashamed of my ancestors, I wish I could dismiss myself!

And you, all of you standing here with a high-sounding appearance, what do you think, what do you do, do you really think I don’t know?

I urge you to turn out your heart and lungs to dry in the sun, wash them, and tidy them up. Are you worthy of the court, your ancestors, me, and the people of the world?

I am now more and more aware that the imperial court's confidants are not outside, but in this imperial court, right above this hall, right among my flesh and blood princes, right among you ministers of civil and military affairs! "

These words were taught to him by Fang Xiu, but every sentence is from his heart.

At this moment, speaking out all at once, it can be said that I feel a burst of relief all over my body.

The ministers of civil and military affairs in the hall showed guilt, and all knelt on the ground.

"The minister is guilty, the minister is guilty!"

The emperor humiliated the minister and died...

The words of the Emperor Chu were recorded in the history books, and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were afraid that they would be scolded for tens of millions of years.

Every one of them is concerned, and even some, to be precise, most of them have red eyes, and they can't stop saying: "I'm guilty, I'm guilty..."

When Emperor Chu saw this scene, he also sighed.

He, who has always been kind, couldn't bear to say these words, but the servant of the household department really angered him.

I couldn't bear to watch this scene anymore, waved my hand, and said wearily: "The court meeting is here today, let's go."

Chapter 6 Fifty Poor Gentlemen

Linze Mansion, dungeon.

Even here, those gentry who are unwilling to pay the land tax still have no intention of bowing their heads in the slightest.

Although there was a distance between them, they still had a very happy conversation. During the conversation, they inevitably talked about Xin Amber.

"Xin'anbo is too arrogant! Even when Lin Zehou was in the Central Plains Road, he might not have dared to treat us like this!"

"That's right, I think Xin'anbo is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He doesn't know the heights of the heavens and the earth. He is unscrupulous because he is a descendant of a famous family and a martial artist. He doesn't know that everything he has is given to them by us gentlemen!

If it weren't for us gentry, those Qiuba don't know how to play in the mud anymore! "

"That being said, what can we do now that we are locked up here?"

"We are locked up here, but there is old Zhou Ge outside, as long as Zhou Ge writes a letter, he will have to go back to the capital obediently, don't say what I said is too big, look at it No, within three days, he Xin'an Bo will come to beg us!"

"how do I say this?"

"Hum..."

The person who spoke showed a confident smile, and said slowly: "To be honest, I have an uncle from afar, who is the servant of the household department!

I sent a letter to ask a few days ago, and he replied very clearly that the household department is united as one, and this strategy of uniting all people in one place cannot be carried out smoothly!

The dignified servant of the household department has said so, so what can he do with a little Xin'anbo?

Does His Majesty believe in the servant, or in a martial artist who only knows how to fight?

Bah, I was wrong, his father is still capable of fighting, what kind of thing is he, who eats and uses ours, but in the end he still wants to harm us?What a dog! "

All the nobles felt relieved when they heard this.

That's the majestic Minister of the Household Department, a real court official, and a senior official in charge of the world's money and food. Now that he has expressed his opinion, what is there to be uncertain about?

Although they were locked in this cage, they just had to wait for the good news.

Thinking so, the door of the dungeon was pushed open.

When everyone heard the sound of the iron lock hitting the wooden door, they cast their eyes one after another, and then saw Li Jing walking over with an imperial edict in his hand.

"How about it, am I right? This is here to apologize for us!"

The gentry who spoke before saw Li Jing, his face was ecstatic, and he said loudly.

Seeing this scene, everyone also showed joy.

In any case, it is a good thing when the imperial decree arrives, it is a good thing!

No matter how evil this Xin'anbo is, he can still disobey His Majesty's orders. Compared with His Majesty, he is the monkey grandson who was suppressed by Wuzhishan, which is nothing!

"Cough, quiet!"

Li Jing took the imperial decree, walked to the middle of the cell, glanced at everyone, coughed twice, and said.

Immediately, everyone was silent, looking at Li Jing and the imperial edict in his hand with expectant eyes.

Li Jing picked up the imperial decree and read it out directly: "Follow the heavens, the emperor's decree says..."

Everyone knelt down and saluted.

Li Jing continued to read: "The strategy of combining land and land is a strategy for pillars, a strategy for building a country, and a strategy for rejuvenating a country. It should not be easily shaken, and the Central Plains Dao is a place for trial, especially so.

Fang Xiu received the Jiedu envoy and the inspector envoy. Since he was ordered, he has been lamenting all night long. I think his hard work has made great achievements. I especially encourage him and reward him..."

Then there are some insignificant awards.

In this era, the gold rewarded by the emperor is actually copper, let alone copper, if it is real gold, Fang Xiu is not rare!

In terms of gold, except for the Ministry of Households, except for the national treasury, except for the internal treasury, it belongs to Baolefang in Fangfu.

"..."

The gentry were happily preparing to receive the decree, but they were completely stunned when they heard Li Jing's words.

what?

Is the policy of land integration unshakable?Fang Xiu has made great achievements for his hard work, and there are rewards?

This... this... is there any reason for this!

Your Majesty, what is your Majesty thinking!

No, it must be bewitched by the villain, Your Majesty must be bewitched by the villain!

Everyone stared at Li Jing in a daze, feeling a terrible tightness in his chest, not to mention laughing like before, even unable to speak.

But at this time, Li Jing gave them a knife.

This is the imperial decree from His Majesty to Lord Jiedushi. After Lord Jiedushi has received it, let me read it to you, so that you bastards will be sober!

"You, Li Jing, you Qiuba, how dare An insult me!"

These gentry can't afford to provoke Fang Xiu, and even a city guard like him?

All of a sudden, everyone opened their mouths to fight back.

Seeing this scene, Li Jing was not angry, but found it ridiculous.

Immediately afterwards, he pulled out his waist knife abruptly, waved it twice, looked at the crowd, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and said coldly: "Master Jiedushi told this general just now that the weather in the Central Plains is not good. Now it is the twelfth lunar month of winter, and it is normal for two or three gentry to freeze to death.

The general wanted to say that the day was cold enough, but not so cold, but he didn't say anything just because he knew you were like this.

You said, which one of you wants to try the taste of the cold winter months? "

This is a threat, a Qiu Ba dares to threaten their gentry!

For a moment, everyone's eyes widened and they looked at Li Jing angrily, but no one dared to say a single word.

The previous voices also stopped abruptly.

Li Jing has always been clear about the virtues of these guys, but he never expected to reach such a point.

When you meet someone who can be bullied, you can bully vigorously, and when you meet someone who is strong, you hide and pretend to be a grandson. Gentleman, gentleman, this is the first time Li Jing thinks these two words are so ridiculous.

"Master Jiedushi's words are true, you gentlemen are all idiots!"

After Li Jing finished speaking, he turned around and left under the angry eyes of everyone, and laughed wildly as he walked: "They are all rats! Hahahahahahaha!"

The gentry just watched his back with gritted teeth. Everyone dared to make a sound, and they didn't curse until he was far away.

"A little Qiu Ba, bullying people too much, bullying people too much!"

"My late emperor, if you were still alive, how could we, the gentry, have been reduced to such a state, how could it be possible!" Someone knelt on the ground and burst into tears.

When everyone saw this, they all felt sad for a while, and they also started to cry.

Suddenly, there was a loud cry in the cell, which could be heard in the main hall of the yamen across two attics.

"What's that sound?"

Fang Xiu frowned, put down the document, looked at Li Jing beside him, and asked.

Li Jing bowed hurriedly and replied, "It should be those gentry who are crying."

"Crying?" Fang Xiu had a weird expression, looked at Li Jing, and asked, "I just asked you to read the imperial decree, and I didn't ask you to beat them. I told them to invite them to drink tea."

"The lowly position is wronged. The lowly position did not move. It just read the imperial decree. Those gentry are too cowardly."

When Fang Xiu heard this, he waved his hands and said, "It's all right, let me ask you, how much did you get from the land tax?"

Chapter 651 Hit hard!

"My lord, the humble positions have been sorted out, they are all here, you see..."

Li Jing hastily handed over the document, Fang Xiu picked it up and glanced at it hastily.

"Why is there such a big gap?"

The field tax on this Land Dingheyi sign has more than doubled than before!

Not to mention other people, even Fang Xiu couldn't believe it after seeing it for himself.

But Li Jing said: "My lord, this is still relatively small, because there are still one-third of the gentry in the dungeon who have not paid the land tax. If they pay it again, it may be twice as much!"

Fang Xiu was completely shocked when he heard this.

Although he had thought about how many benefits these gentry had gained from the common people, he had never thought that it was so exaggerated.

Twice, twice!

What kind of concept is this? Holding the document, Fang Xiu took a deep breath of it, with a cold light in his eyes, and said: "From today on, those gentry in the dungeon will be beaten hard by me!

Play three times a day, once in the morning and noon! "

"This......"

Li Jing was startled when he heard this.

No one knows the physique of those gentlemen better than him. If they do it, I'm afraid something will go wrong!

"My lord, may I ask, should you hit me lightly, hard, or really?"

Li Jing asked cautiously.

You know, playing the board is also particular.

As the name suggests, this light beating is just to put on a show, and it looks very serious when it goes down, but it is actually some skin trauma, and it will be fine after a few days of rest.

This heavy beating is just as the name suggests, it is heavy beating, it doesn't matter what the beating is, a good physique will suffer a little flesh injury, and a bad physique will probably be difficult.

And this kind of real beating is the kind of beating to death, without any thought of staying alive.

Fang Xiu raised his eyes, glanced at Li Jing, and said calmly: "Slap me hard, remember, hit me three times a day, if anything happens, I will be responsible!"

When Li Jing heard this, he no longer had to worry about the future. As a half of the Fang family, he thought he knew the surname Fang quite well.

Since the major general said so, then the problem is not too big.

"What the officer said is starting now, didn't you hear?"

Seeing Li Jing standing there, Fang Xiu said coldly.

Hearing this, Li Jing reacted instantly, and hurriedly said: "Xiaozhi understands, I'm going now!"

After speaking, he left the main hall and went straight to the dungeon.

Inside the dungeon, the gentry were still howling and crying. When they heard the movement at the door, they all cast their gazes nervously.

But seeing that the previous Li Jing had gone and returned, all of them held their breath and concentrated, not daring to cry anymore.

Even so, Li Jing still didn't show any sympathy, didn't even give an extra explanation, just waved his hand, and said loudly: "Drag them all out for me, beat them hard!"
