The tax policemen had just left with Qin Biao, and a car escorted by more than ten people arrived at Qinjiazhuang.
I saw an old man getting off the carriage, it was Na Wei Yushan.
"Where are the people?"
Wei Yushan looked around.
A clever servant immediately ran to the villagers in front who were gathering to gossip.
After a while, the servant came to Wei Yushan and told Wei Yushan what he had just learned from the villagers.
Wei Yushan slapped his chest when he heard this, "Fortunately! Fortunately, I didn't commit such a mistake this time, otherwise...!"
Speaking of this, he chuckled and said: "The Qin family deserves it! If you don't want to offend anyone, go and offend that Zhang San. Haha!"
This old man is very small-minded. He has paid enough taxes, but he also knows that many people have not paid, and he is unbalanced. He is looking forward to it day and night, hoping that something will happen to these people.
At this time, he felt very happy.
...
The actions of the tax police last night are destined to leave a lot of feathers in today's morning.
The first person to suffer was Emperor Zhao Xu.
At this time, the genius in the east had just turned around and turned white, but Zhao Xu was already sitting in the Chui Gong Hall, watching a group of admonishers and censors spraying wildly at one person.
And this person is Li He, the director of the Department of Taxation.
The reason is that they learned that the Taxation Department directly used the tools to attack the city gate to open the gate of Qinzhuang.
This has really never happened before.
Even if a government official commits a capital crime and goes to a civilian's house, he or she will have to knock on the door to get in.
When the ministers heard the news, they were all horrified. Even Sima Guang, Wang Anshi, Fu Bi, Wen Yanbo and others were frightened.
They had already guessed in advance that the tax department was definitely not a kind person, but they did not expect that the tax department would be so ruthless.
After hearing the news, he immediately rushed to the imperial city. As expected, the admonishing officials and censors immediately started a quarrel with Zhao Xu. Among the ministers, except Wang Anshi, who did not express his position, other political advisors also criticized this behavior.
You are so violent.
Li He, on the other hand, remained silent, did not make any argument, and allowed them to bombard him indiscriminately.
After a while, when the admonishing officials and censors were out of breath, Zhao Xu found an opportunity to interject, "Li Siwu, what's your explanation for this?"
Li He then spoke, "Reporting to your Majesty, the Taxation Department has made full preparations for what happened last night. Since we learned that Qinjiazhuang maintains many servants and has many weapons, in order to avoid taxation
The policeman was injured, so we decided to use a surprise attack. At that time, Qin Biao also came out with a big knife.
Of course, since we were conducting a surprise attack, Qin Biao's behavior was not excessive. We did not harm anyone in Qinjiazhuang. We even invited Qin Biao out of Qinjiazhuang without even touching them."
Censor Fan Yu angrily rebuked: "That's nonsense. I heard that you shot an arrow at Qin Biao last night and missed it."
Li He explained: "That was because Qin Biao wanted to escape at that time, so we gave him a warning. Those tax policemen absolutely abide by the rules of the Taxation Department. First of all, they ensure that the tax policemen will not be threatened in any way. Secondly, they try to ensure that there is no conflict.
No one was harmed, the operation last night was very successful, no one was harmed."
Seeing that Li He was still confident, Sima Guang couldn't help asking: "Can your tax department stipulate that people's property can be easily destroyed?"
Li He said: "Our tax department stipulates that any damage caused to people's property during operations will be compensated. The door that was damaged last night has been repaired today."
Sima Guang was immediately stunned. Has it been repaired?
Where did your tax department come from? Don’t you know the efficiency of our Song government?
Wen Yanbo said: "Is this a door problem? You broke into houses with bows, arrows and swords. If you scared people to death, can you afford to pay compensation?"
Li He replied expressionlessly: "Therefore, we have been constantly reminding people that they must declare truthfully. If there are any problems, they should come to the tax department to explain in time, so as to avoid this situation from happening. Once they are randomly inspected, the consequences will be
conceited."
"Asshole!"
Peng Siyan jumped out and said: "How dare you talk to Wen Gong like this?"
Li He said: "I just reported the truth."
Wen Yanbo, Sima Guang, Fu Bi and others were slightly shocked. They had all heard about Li He. He was a non-existent minor official in Sanbu Gouyuan. It was not easy to see him today!
Zhao Xu suddenly said: "Everyone, please be patient for a moment. Since everyone is insisting on their own opinions, it is better to leave it to the judiciary. If the other party thinks that the Taxation Department is at fault, they can also sue the Taxation Department."
In this matter, he cannot favor the Taxation Department in the slightest, because now the Taxation Department wants to be the enemy of the powerful, and the powerful people also know what is going on behind the Taxation Department. Once Zhao Xu favors the Taxation Department, the ministers will immediately
Come for him.
His suggestion is that you go to the tax department. I have no objection.
The Imperial Court and the Procuratorate were all run by Sima Guang, and none of the officials there are my confidants.
To this, Fu Bi and Wen Yanbo could only agree.
The Taxation Department has repeatedly emphasized that you must report the truth, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences, and it was true that no one was harmed last night, and even the door was repaired.
The violence is very violent, but it sounds like it's very well-behaved.
There is nothing wrong with leaving it to the judiciary to decide in the end.
But the admonishing officials and censors are a little unhappy and leave everything to the judiciary. So...then does our impeachment still have any effect?
However, this incident was both expected and unexpected, and they couldn't figure out the relationship for a while.
After leaving Chui Gong Hall, Wen Yanbo couldn't help but frown, "Although I had expected that the Taxation Department would definitely take action, I didn't expect that they would be so ruthless. Such behavior cannot be encouraged."
Lu Gongzhu nodded and said: "Mr. Wen's words are reasonable. After all, it is a private house, not a den of robbers. How can you be so reckless?"
Wang Anshi chuckled and said, "Sima Junshi, it's up to you now."
Sima Guang said excitedly: "Don't gloat here, it's all your fault."
Wang Anshi immediately said: "Junshi, you have to be reasonable. I made the recruitment law, that's right. But I don't agree with it. You think it will lead to corruption among officials, and this law will increase the burden on the people.
I just handed it over to the police station, and now you blame me?"
Han Jiang also said: "The Taxation Department is not under our control at Sinong Temple. You should be very clear about this."
When Sima Guang saw Han Jiang speaking, he remained silent.
really!
They were also very distressed by this incident.
Everyone saw this with their own eyes. Not long ago, Han Jiang was so angry that he died.
Fu Bi suddenly said: "I really don't understand why you are so worried. Is it unwise to leave it to the judiciary?"
...
Cao Mansion!
"You rebellious son, why don't you kneel down quickly? Cough cough cough!"
Cao Ping looked like he was terminally ill. He just scolded him for a few words and then started coughing violently.
"Brother Cao, you have to take care of yourself."
Wang Chao, the handsome horseman next to him, said quickly.
But the people around Wang Chao were indifferent and just looked at Cao Ping coldly.
play!
You keep acting!
You traitor among the powerful.
These people are all relatives and dignitaries, including the Fu family.
They all made false reports, and the news from the tax department also frightened them. The heads of the police station were the Cao family and his son. They rushed to the Cao family as soon as possible to investigate.
Everyone's butts are not clean.
"Dad! What did the child commit?"
Cao Dongdong said with an innocent face.
"Kneel down! Ahem!"
Cao Ping stamped his feet and coughed violently again.
Cao Dongdong knelt down and looked at Wang Chao aggrievedly, "Uncle Wang, you have to make the decision for your nephew!"
Wang Chao was angry and funny, and said: "Dong'er, don't be a good boy here. Yesterday you ordered people to go to Qinjiazhuang in Baima Township to capture Qin Biao."
Cao Dongdong blinked and shook his head: "My child did not give this order."
A person next to him immediately said: "You are still pretending to be stupid here. Without your order, how would the Royal Police dare to act without authorization?"
"I really don't."
Cao Dongdong also became excited, "I really didn't do it."
Wang Chao saw this and said: "Apart from you, who else in the police station can make the decision?"
Cao Dongdong thought for a while and said: "This kind of thing must be approved by my nephew. Uncles and uncles, are you mistaken?"
"This matter has already been reported to His Majesty. There is still room for falsehood. Last night, a team of royal tax police used siege equipment to break open the gate of the Qin family and took Qin Biao to the tax department."
"That's the Royal Tax Police. This has nothing to do with my nephew." Cao Dongdong said immediately.
Wang Chao wondered: "The Royal Tax Police is not under your control?"
"yes!"
Cao Dongdong said: "At the beginning, the court did not issue an order. Our police station was only responsible for training tax police and court police. A few days ago, my nephew had sent 300 tax police to the tax department, and those tax police were no longer under my nephew's control.
, Otherwise, the Taxation Department and the Imperial Court will have to listen to our police station."
Several people looked at each other.
Cao Ping frowned and said, "Dong'er, tell the truth, did you participate?"
"My child really didn't participate."
Cao Dongdong was so aggrieved that he almost cried, and said in disbelief: "The tax police can still use siege equipment? This is really unfair, even our royal police can't use it."
Cao Ping glared at his son, then looked at Wang Chao and others, "Everyone, are you mistaken?"
"I am sorry!"
Wang Chao quickly raised his hands and said, "Maybe... maybe we made a mistake."
...
There was already a lot of noise outside, but the Zhang family was still harmonious and peaceful.
"...Sorrow is real, tears are fake. There is no cause and effect. A hundred years later, there will be no you and no me...!"
Zhang Fei slept until he woke up naturally, hugged his beloved wife, hummed a tune, and walked slowly to the front yard.
What a joyful spring breeze.
"Where did you hear this little tune?"
Xu Zhiqian couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Fei said: "Of course I created it myself. Who else in the world besides me can write such terrible words."
Xu Zhiqian chuckled: "That's true, your wording is really not even comparable to the slang in the market."
Zhang Fei said proudly: "Just like my article, although it is terrible, it is lovable."
Xu Zhiqian rolled her eyes, "That's not the case."
Arriving in the front yard, Xu Zhiqian found that Mu Zhen was eating breakfast alone, and couldn't help asking: "Sister-in-law, where are dad and eldest brother?"
Mu Zhen said: "Someone came from the Yamen just now. It seems something big happened. Dad left in a hurry, and your brother went with him."
After Xu Zhiqian heard this, he immediately looked at Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei said hurriedly: "I don't know." After that, he muttered again: "Maybe the tax department has taken action."
By chance, Gao Wenyin walked in with breakfast.
Zhang Fei said again: "Madam, I'm afraid I can't accompany you to your new house today."
Gao Wenyin hurriedly said: "If you don't have an appointment, then don't go. You won't be able to help."
"...?"
...
After breakfast, Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian immediately went out and headed to Lushi Alley.
While on the road, listening to the gossip of passers-by outside the car, the couple figured out what happened last night.
Xu Zhiqian looked at Zhang Fei in shock.
Zhang Fei explained: "I really don't know when they will take action."
He only knew that he was going to take action, but he didn't know when exactly, and he didn't understand these things. These matters had to be left to professionals.
"No, siege equipment...?"
Xu Zhiqian was dumbfounded.
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "If you don't want to hurt people, then you have to let people know that this is a very dangerous thing and try to do it as little as possible."
Xu Zhiqian said worriedly: "But if the Taxation Department has such power, then...!"
Zhang Fei nodded, "If there were no imperial court, procuratorate, and police station, the Taxation Department would never be given such power. But it is different now. The Taxation Department must also take responsibility for what it does."
Having said this, he sighed, "You also know what our tax situation is. If we don't use this method, no matter how Wang Xueshi changes the law, ordinary people will eventually bear all this. But the problem is,
They can't afford it either."
Xu Zhiqian nodded and asked again: "Then dad...!"
Zhang Fei chuckled and said, "Father-in-law should be enjoying the moment very much."
Xu Zhiqian immediately gave Zhang Fei a shining eye roll.
Zhang Fei said hey: "Don't be like this, maybe you will also enjoy it." He added in his heart, don't you and your father have the same virtues?
Xu Zhiqian asked: "How do you say this?"
Zhang Fei said: "Maybe our couple will make a comeback."
...
At this time, Lushi Alley was also extremely lively. Li Guozhong, Fei Ming, Fan Li and others were standing in front of the Bianjing Law Firm talking. When they saw Zhang Fei coming, they immediately came to greet them.
"Sanlang, do you know what happened last night?" Li Guozhong asked urgently.
Zhang Fei said: "I just heard on the way here that the Taxation Department sealed off the Qin family in Baima Township last night."
"How cruel!" Fan Li said fearfully.
Zhang Fei asked: "Didn't you pay taxes?"
Fan Li was so frightened that he jumped on the spot: "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have a penny less."
Zhang Fei looked at Li Guozhong and others again.
Li Guozhong said hurriedly: "We have all surrendered. We are people who eat tea. How could we make such a mistake? It would cost us our lives."
Fei Ming also nodded repeatedly.
Zhang Fei shrugged and said, "What's so scary about that?"
Li Guozhong suddenly glanced at Fei Ming, who immediately said: "According to the original decree issued by the imperial court, the Taxation Department does not have the right to judge the Qin family. Should it be transferred to the Procuratorate, which will then prosecute the case to the Imperial Court?"
Zhang Fei nodded.
Fei Ming asked again: "In this case, the Qin family may file a lawsuit, then if the Qin family asks us to file a lawsuit...!"
Zhang Fei said hey: "I thought of this just now, we can make a profit this time."
Li Guozhong hurriedly said: "You can't do it, you can't do it. The tax department is so cruel, but we can't afford to offend him!"
Zhang Fei said angrily: "What can't be offended? Li Xingshou, what are you thinking about? According to what you said, can the Imperial Court be offended? Can the Kaifeng Mansion be offended? Then should we file a lawsuit? Now we are.
If they lose the lawsuit and it’s not illegal, as long as they can afford it, why not take it.”
Fei Ming nodded: "Sanlang's words are also reasonable!"
At this moment, Li Lei ran over and whispered a few words in Li Guozhong's ear.
Li Guozhong nodded and said to Zhang Fei: "Sanlang, there is something wrong with the shop, so I will leave first."
After they left, Fan Li immediately said: "Sanlang, they just tried to trick you again."
Zhang Fei said: "I know, but my answer is actually not important, because they will definitely take the lawsuit. Whoever wants to take the lawsuit will be supported by the powerful and powerful. There is nothing to be afraid of."
Fan Li asked again: "Then if we are approached, will we pick it up?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "If there is a business coming to your door, why don't you accept it?"
Xu Zhiqian frowned slightly, and when she entered the back hall, she whispered: "You want to help the Qin family with the lawsuit?"
Zhang Fei thought for a while and said: "They probably won't come to me. After all, they regard me as their enemy now. Maybe we are going to help the tax department in this first lawsuit."
Xu Zhiqian asked curiously: "Why are you helping the tax department? Aren't they prosecuting through the procuratorate?"
