There is a courtyard in Guangxin City. From a glance, it looks very small. It can probably accommodate two thatched houses, plus a courtyard that is less than ten feet long and eight feet wide.
It is foreseeable that if the owner of the courtyard has a prosperous family and many children, it may be extremely crowded.
Surprisingly, this small-looking courtyard is extremely empty, like an old house abandoned by the owner, dusty and cold, lifeless.
Looking closely, I was surprised to find that in the narrow courtyard, there was a pair of old women with gray hair sitting in front of the thatched house. She had clothes hanging on her thighs and needlework in her hands.
If you look closely, it looks like you are doing needlework.
Perhaps because of her old age and blurred eyes, she placed the needle and thread very close to her eyes, but even so, the thin thread in her hand moved back and forth, but could not pass through the thick needle hole, even if
She was concentrating, but still couldn't get through.
At this moment, a middle-aged man staggered into the narrow courtyard, slightly in a trance, and his movements were even more cautious.
The man's movements were very gentle, and the old woman didn't pay attention for a moment. She was immersed in her sewing work.
The man didn't move, he just looked at the old woman quietly, his eyes fixed, and for some reason, his expression was downcast, beyond words.
In particular, I noticed that when the old woman couldn't thread the needle and thread in her hand, she opened her mouth blankly, leaving a small hole, which made her even more embarrassed to speak.
Suddenly, tears started to well up in my eyes, and my eyes were filled with tears.
The old woman held the needle in her hand and scratched her head.
The man couldn't hold it back for a moment and even started to swallow.
Although the voice was very soft, because the old woman was alone in the courtyard, it was extremely quiet, and the sound of swallowing was enough to make her feel abnormal.
The old woman slowly raised her head and found a person standing at the door of the courtyard. Her body trembled obviously. She always felt that the person in front of her was familiar. However, after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't remember who this person was, so she had to squint.
He narrowed his eyes and said, "Who are you looking for?"
The words were quite surprising, but also tinged with a hint of confusion.
The man said nothing, holding back tears.
The old woman suddenly became angry and said, "You young man is so rude. You broke into my old lady's courtyard without any reason. You didn't say a word. Since you came in, you have been staring at my old lady. What do you want to do?"
As he spoke, he stared at the visitor with some vigilance.
But in the blink of an eye, the man rushed forward, and with a "pop" sound, he knelt down in front of the old woman and said heartbreakingly, "Mom, don't you remember the child?"
The old woman's lifeless eyes flashed with light for just a moment, and she said in disbelief, "You...are you Ke'er?"
"Mom, it's the baby."
The man kept nodding heavily, and the tears in his eyes finally couldn't help but burst out at this moment.
There is a saying that men should not shed tears lightly, but at this moment, the man could not restrain his inner emotions at all.
"Ke'er...you are Ke'er, are you really Ke'er?"
The old woman murmured to herself and kept saying the man's name.
It was as if he couldn't believe that what he was seeing was real.
"Mom, it's the baby. The baby is back."
This man's name was Li Ke. Three years ago, because he couldn't stand Yang Buwei's son being domineering in the street and bullying men and women, he beat up Yang Zhengde and was imprisoned for it.
While in prison, Li Ke suffered countless tortures and was in agony. If he hadn't thought about his mother at home, he might have been tempted to commit suicide.
Three years, three full years in prison. In these three years, Li Ke has never seen his mother. This is why the old woman treats Li Ke as a stranger when she sees him.
At almost the same time, similar situations occurred in Guangxin City and various corners around Guangxin City.
Somewhere in Guangxin City.
"Brother~"
"You...are you San'er?"
"Brother, it's me, I'm San! Hahaha...I'm back, brother."
As he spoke, he ran towards the person in front of him until the two people hugged each other.
After being happy, the boss immediately took the third child's hand and looked around, and found that no one else noticed it, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"San'er, hurry up, hurry up, follow your elder brother in, get some money, and leave Nanyi Prefecture quickly..."
The third child grabbed the eldest brother and said, "Brother, don't be anxious yet."
The boss was so anxious that he couldn't help but said, "San'er, now is not the time to reminisce about the past. Now that you have finally come out, the top priority is to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you delay it any longer, I'm afraid you will go in again!"
In his opinion, it is a good thing that the third child can come back, but it may not be a good thing if he really wants to stay.
The third child knew what he was worried about, so he held his hands tightly and said seriously every word, "Brother... you wait first, listen to me first, and wait until I finish."
The eldest son swallowed his saliva and looked anxious. Seeing that the third eldest child was so serious, he had no choice but to suppress his anxiety and said, "Okay! Just tell me, I will send you out after you finish speaking."
"Brother, we don't need to worry anymore. That old guy from the Yang family, Yang Buwei, has been arrested by Master Zhizhou..."
"What? What did you say? Lord Zhizhou?"
The third child nodded and said, "Exactly, the reason why I came out this time is not to do something strange, but to come out in a fair and honest way..."
Ling Yun's move allowed countless people who were imprisoned for offending Yang Buwei to be released from prison safely and reunited with their families.
It is also because of these things that his prestige in the hearts of the people is like the top of Nanshan Mountain, unattainable.
If one day, when he needs the help of the people, all he needs to do is give an order, and I am afraid that countless people will be attracted to him, and they will go to the sword and the sea of fire for him, and they will not hesitate to do so.
At this time, Ling Yun was sitting in the Yamen, busy writing something.
He stopped writing and looked at the person below, "Feng Hexu."
Hearing the voice, Feng Hexu immediately became energetic and said, "Sir."
"This, and this, and these are all distributed to all counties."
It turns out that Lingyun is taking drastic measures to strengthen the management of the following counties.
He had only one purpose in doing this, to establish his prestige and at the same time firmly hold the power of Zhizhou in his own hands.
Time flies, and suddenly, a week has passed.
The fluctuations caused by the two incidents in Heiyun Village and Yang Mansion finally subsided over time.
Of course, the people were full of curiosity about Lingyun, the new governor of the state, and they even talked about his actions.
During this week, Ling Yun had not had a moment of free time. He had been checking the files, hoping to familiarize himself with the actual situation in Nanyi Prefecture as soon as possible, but the more he looked at it, the more he frowned.
Especially when he saw the accounts, he wanted to kill Yang Buwei a hundred times.
Being poor is the simplest thing.
But just being poor is still justified.
Who would have thought that Yang Buwei had no idea where he would use the tax revenue he turned over in the autumn. Now the granary in Guangxin City only has a few bags of rice.
The hatred in Ling Yun’s heart!
I wish I could cut Yang Buwei into pieces with a thousand knives, but even if a week passed and I dug up the ground of Yang's house three feet, there was still no trace of him.
Therefore, he could only vent his anger on his relatives.
So, he immediately went to the dungeon, without saying a word, he directly called Yang Zheng by name, pulled Yang Zheng out, and beat him severely.
It can be said that Yang Zhengde suffered this crime inexplicably. He was lying in the cell peacefully and suddenly he was dragged out and beaten violently.
Not to mention that he was confused, even Guo Yixiu and others accompanying him also looked confused.
Lingyun came and went quickly.
After the treatment, I felt refreshed and suddenly felt much more comfortable.
