But since two or three years ago, the county magistrate here began to impose various exorbitant taxes on the people under his rule in order to give gifts to the grand master.
As a result, the people here are full of complaints and miserable.
For those who are rich, it is nothing more than spending more money to avoid disasters.
But for poor people like Zhang, this hurdle is not easy to overcome.
The Zhang family, which has been unable to pay their taxes, is harassed by the county government officials every three to five days.
This time made their family miserable.
Mrs. Zhang originally thought that after the government officials couldn't collect any money from them, they would let them go.
But the facts proved that Mrs. Zhang thought too well of these county government scoundrels.
Just a few months ago, the government officials who repeatedly failed to defraud the Zhang family of money.
Finally, her evil eyes were fixed on her daughter Zhang Cuilan.
Then he wanted to arrest her daughter and sell her in the name of tax deduction.
Although Mrs. Zhang was extremely reluctant, how could she, a weak-minded woman, be the opponent of those ferocious government servants armed with sharp blades?
The final outcome was that Mrs. Zhang, who resisted desperately, not only failed to save her daughter, but was seriously injured by the government servants.
From then on, Mrs. Zhang went to the government office every day to look for her daughter.
This search lasted several months.
And those government officials used all kinds of tricks against this "very difficult" woman.
From the yelling at the beginning to the beating with sticks at the end.
But even so, she still couldn't drive away the mother who wanted to save her daughter.
Over time, this Mrs. Zhang became like a crazy woman, hanging around the door of the government office day and night.
This may be an interpretation of the fact that women are weak but strong as mothers.
When Lu Zhishen came back and told Wu Zhi everything he knew, Wu Zhi immediately frowned.
Lin Chong, Shi Jin, Zhu Wu, Chen Da, Yang Chun and others who were following him were all gnashing their teeth in anger at this moment.
They all turned to look at Wu Zhi, waiting for his order.
As soon as he gives the order, they will immediately rush into the government office and kill all the birdmen.
Wu Zhi thought for a while, then turned to look at Zhu Wu beside him.
"Brother Zhu Wu, go and gather all your brothers now."
"Then let them surround the yamen and not let anyone leave."
Zhu Wu responded and then strode away.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Zhi and his party sent Pan Jinlian and Mrs. Lin back to the inn.
When Wu Zhi and his party arrived at the gate of the government office again, Zhu Wu had already led the group of minions to surround the county government office.
Such a big commotion outside the county government office also alerted the government officials inside.
When seven or eight government officials rushed out of the government office, they were immediately stunned by the scene before them.
People, densely packed with people!
Moreover, they all carried weapons in their hands.
And those at the beginning have an extraordinary temperament.
There was murderous intent in his eyes.
Several government officials looked at everything in front of them with their mouths open, and they couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air.
So much so that when I spoke, I stuttered a bit.
"You, you, who are you?
How dare you attack the county government office?"
Wu Zhi sneered and didn't answer. Then with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen minions rushed up from behind him and pushed the seven or eight government officials to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Zhi and his party strode to the main hall of the government office.
Seeing that there was no one here, Wu Zhi picked up the drumstick placed aside and hit the drum next to him hard.
In an instant, the yamen was filled with the sound of rumbling drums.
And what is Wenshang County Magistrate Li Changxing doing at this time?
At this moment, he was holding the three women he snatched from nowhere, doing ridiculous things on the bed.
The half-grey hair is hung casually on the back of the head.
There is a look of wantonness between the eyebrows.
Perhaps because he was too excited, a faint blush could be seen on his wrinkled face.
His rapid breathing also caused his gray beard to tremble slightly.
A pair of big wrinkled hands kept rubbing the three women with frightened faces.
Suddenly I heard the rumble of drums outside, and I was immediately confused.
I can't help but secretly think, these unruly people!
Without thinking about how to make up for the tax, you still have time to come to me and harass me!
When I see you, I will first punish you for an unfounded crime.
If you don't have a few hundred taels of silver, you can't even think of leaving here completely!
With a gloomy face, Li Changxing hurriedly climbed out of bed and called for his official uniform.
Immediately afterwards, another group of government officials were called to go to court with him.
But when Li Changxing came to the hall with the group of government officials.
Before he could get angry and accuse the other party, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Originally, he thought there were only one or two people complaining, but he didn't expect that he would see hundreds of people.
And looking at the fierce expressions on those people's faces, you know they are not kind people.
This was the first time Li Changxing had seen such a scene in his more than 20 years as an official.
I couldn't help but feel a little panicked.
"You, who are you?"
"You dare to come here and disturb me. Aren't you afraid that I will arrest you and question you?"
As soon as Li Changxing finished speaking, he saw a woman with disheveled hair running over from the side of the lobby.
Then, he fiercely grabbed Li Changxing's gray beard and shouted with great anger at the top of his voice.
"Give me my daughter back, give me my daughter back!"
Li Changxing was shocked, but when he saw clearly the appearance of the person in front of him, a look of extreme disgust suddenly appeared on his face.
"It's you crazy bitch again!"
“Didn’t I tell you this several times before?
Your daughter has been sold into a brothel in exchange for taxes!"
As soon as Li Changxing said these words, Mrs. Zhang, who was so angry that she couldn't bear it anymore, raised her palm and slapped Li Changxing hard on the face.
This is something that Zhang has wanted to do for a long time but has never had the chance to do.
She came here several times to ask for an explanation, but what awaited her was not a just result, but beatings, insults, threats and intimidation again and again.
In Zhang's heart, she had already accumulated enough anger against the county magistrate.
At this moment, I suddenly got an opportunity and I couldn't control it.
That Li Changxing was also confused at the moment.
