At dawn, the bacon didn't come back. The old patriarch pointed at Yunzheng's nose and cursed. The maid they bought wanted to tie it up with a rope. It's better for you. A maid lives the life of a young lady. Look at what she's wearing.
As for clothes, how many of the girls in the village can wear better clothes than she does? She doesn't know the meaning of superiority and inferiority, and now she has taken the rice and grain from the master's family and run away.
Yun Zheng listened to the old patriarch's reprimand with a smile on his face. He was also surprised that there was no reason for bacon not to come back. There must be something wrong. After telling the old patriarch about such worries, the old patriarch suddenly patted his thigh and said: "Yes.
Maybe, when I went to the county to report that everyone was safe, I saw a lot of people locked up in the government office. Many people in Walnut Ridge were locked up. Bacon wouldn't be locked up too, right?"
Yun Zheng said strangely: "It stands to reason that it shouldn't happen. Liu Captou knows Barou and knows that she is a member of my family. Considering the past friendship, he wouldn't do this, right?"
The old patriarch looked at Yunzheng for a while and whispered: "They are the arresters from Chengdu Prefecture. I'm afraid Liu Dutou can't speak. I heard that they are hunting down the mountain people and are planning to organize them into military households and deport them to Daming Prefecture.
The people in Walnut Ridge are now homeless, and they will probably be collected and transported away as well. This is a common practice."
Yun Zheng's heart skipped a beat. Bagong went into the army camp alone. Apart from working as a camp prostitute, he really couldn't think of any other way to survive. After bidding farewell to the old patriarch, Yun Zheng immediately hitched the bullock cart and entrusted Yun Er to
He met the old patriarch and hurried towards Dousha Pass. The old cow seemed to know that he was in a hurry. His four hooves moved very fast and he was soon on the winding mountain road. When passing by the lying cow stone, Yun Zheng suddenly discovered
There are four circles and a cross carved on the stone. This means that four male mountain residents and one female mountain villager were arrested by the government. However, this is the time when he should find Mr. Liu, who is on the big stone.
What kind of talisman are you drawing? The one who has interests entangled with you is Capt. Liu, not me.
I still don’t have a clue about the bacon issue today, so who can care about those mountain people?
Yun Zheng cursed in his heart and hurriedly entered Dousha Pass. The atmosphere in Dousha Pass was extremely tense. There were police officers everywhere wearing official uniforms with red trim and knives under their ribs, running rampant on the streets of Dousha Pass.
"Brother, what's going on? Why are there so many irrelevant people in the prison?" The gatekeeper is still the veteran. There is no smile on his face today.
Quietly spitting in the corner.
"Yunda, if you can't help but go in today, don't go in. The gate is full of murderers. I heard that they are the chief catchers from Chengdu Prefecture. The leader is a chief catcher surnamed Han, who brought two hundred officers here.
Hundreds of refugees have been arrested in Doushaguan. You should be careful, don’t be taken into prison as a refugee and tortured. This is how I suffered back then. Look, am I still living a human life now?
"
Yun Zheng asked with a smile: "Who invited Mr. Han to catch the thieves? According to the law, only the local government that is unable to catch thieves will ask for help from the higher authorities. If no one is invited, what are they doing here? This is not in line with the rules."
"Why didn't anyone invite you? The person who invited you was Magistrate Lin. He said that Dousha County is now full of bandits and is about to be a war. So he asked the magistrate to help him and clear the county." The veteran whispered in Yun Zheng's ear.
explain.
Although he was half stung by the veteran's tone, Yun Zheng still understood what was going on in the flash of lightning. The irreconcilable conflict between County Magistrate Lin and Director Xiao finally broke out. In order to achieve monopoly of power, Magistrate Lin
, had no choice but to march in danger and ask for help from the magistrate, who was also a civil servant. The magistrate also gave him enough face and sent two hundred subordinates to support Magistrate Lin.
It is the legitimate authority of the county magistrate to crack down on the refugees, and no one can say anything. However, in this way, he and the local faction in Dousha County completely broke up with each other, and there was no room for maneuver at all, because cracking down on the refugees was
In attacking Master Xiao, Capt. Liu has affected the financial resources of those with vested interests. Now things are going to be bad, and Dousha County will be in chaos.
Lin County Magistrate and a scholar also underestimated the local power in Dousha County. They could bring in tigers and bandits to monopolize transactions with the Dali Kingdom, so couldn't they repeat their same tricks and really cause war to break out?
What's more, they have slowly formed a community of interests with the refugees, and the storm they will cause will definitely be even greater.
When Yun Zheng found Liu Captou, he was drinking, pouring bowls of wine into his stomach. Seeing Yun Zheng coming over, he found a large porcelain bowl and slowly sifted a bowl of wine, signaling
Yunzheng started drinking.
Yun Zheng saw that Lao Liu was in a bad mood, and he was also in a bad mood. He picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one breath. He sifted another bowl of wine himself, and soon all the dregs were left in the jar.
Capt. Liu grabbed a handful of wine grains, stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them and said to Yun Zheng: "The sheep is ready to bite. Do you think this sheep still has a way to survive?"
"He has a way to survive. If he kills you all, he will be able to live happily." Yun Zheng got some water to rinse his mouth. The sour wine slurped up his appetite.
Capt. Liu chuckled and said, "Do you think they can kill us all?"
"Yes, as long as he has the determination to destroy the boat, take you all to prison at lightning speed, and then slowly endure it, what else can you ask for? Make the case a solid case, and then create another one.
The prison is on fire, the corpses are destroyed, and all traces are destroyed. I have evidence of your crime in my hand. It depends on how he pleases him. As long as he makes good use of the relationship between his money and his classmates, it is not a problem to completely control Dousha County, but now you are still here.
After drinking, I knew he didn't have the courage, so he was dead."
Liu Captou nodded and said: "If you become an official in the future, I will give a warning to the people I know. You can do whatever you want. Don't go against you. Becoming an official with others will result in loss of office. It will be very difficult to become an official with you."
He might die."
Yun Zheng shook his head and said: "Other people's affairs are none of my business. Why did you arrest my bacon? She has a master. She went home to see my mother and she was taken to jail by you. Is there anything else?
Has the king followed the law?"
Liu Captou said with a dark face: "I find that Wang's Law is nothing in your mouth. When it is beneficial to you, you will talk about it. When it is not beneficial to you, you will throw it aside and use it freely."
"Hurry up, take me to see the bacon. A young girl is locked up with those stinky people. If she stays for a long time, her reputation will be damaged." Yun Zheng dragged Capt. Liu to the prison where he was imprisoned.
"Is that your maid or your rich lady? It's just a Bo person. If you run out, you can just buy another one. Do you need to go through such a big trouble?"
Yun Zheng chuckled and said, "Don't tell me, my maids are not necessarily worse than those wealthy ladies!"
ps: I'm sorry everyone, I went to Lu Xun Institute of Literature to study, and I faced everyone. I didn't dare to code secretly, and it would hurt my character. He Jianqiang knew that, so I will slowly show my respect. Please wait and see.
