Chapter 16 Some Little Plans

There was a leader who looked like a Lizheng person: "Our group is not afraid of death, and we can't live anymore. The old man's four sons are all dead, and he wants justice with an old bone! Could it be the emperor? Just watch us all starve to death?"

The crowd was excited and shouted.

"Folks, listen to me. I have been waiting for half a month to come to Xianzhou to check taxes. But this matter cannot be resolved immediately. You are so impulsive today."

The crowd became angry again and shouted.

Mr. Ma hurriedly said: "But fellow villagers, don't worry, except for a few people who beat someone to death, everyone else is fine. They can all go home."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, a little hesitant.

After all, no one wants to rebel, if they can go home safely, of course they would.

Before the soldiers and horses from outside the city came in, Mr. Ma and his party had already dispersed the crowd.Only a few who actually beat people to death were arrested.

Everyone has nothing to do with them.

Master Liao didn't dare to directly say that this group of people should not be let go at this time, after all, there are few of them now.

However, according to Mr. Liao's temperament, he will definitely be arrested in the future.

"Master Ma, you have great power. Can this group of mobs be easily let go?" Sure enough, Master Liao became angry when he met him.

This time, Mr. Ma also changed his previous attitude, and his face was cold and serious: "Mr. Liao, the lower officials have low positions, but they can't be indifferent to the fact that the people of Xianzhou are living worse than death. The taxes in Xianzhou are so heavy. You have to ask, where did these taxes go?"

"Xianzhou produces rice, but the price of rice is so expensive, where does the rice go?"

"Today, unless I wait for the jade to be broken here, the lower officials must ask and investigate!"

Master Ma is impassioned, and so are the people around him.

It is impossible for Yu Sui to become famous in a battle today, if these twenty people disappear, it will be bad luck for him to be the first imperial envoy Mr. Liao.

Yao Shibin is now an ant on a hot pot.

How could it be possible to hide something that could have been easily dealt with now that it has become like this?

As the saying goes, some things can’t be weighed less than four or two weights, and even a few thousand catties can’t be weighed.

This is the situation now.

At the very least, Master Liao must act as if he is enforcing the law impartially.

But this way, it is bound to offend the lineage of the third prince.

It is true that he is closer to the prince, but the outcome is not yet decided, so he dare not stand firmly in the past.

Mr. Ma is now determined not to allow them to arrest other civilians, only these seven or eight people have no choice but to go to prison.

No matter how shaken the prince's position is, he is still the prince.

At least only he is qualified to send people out to check taxes.

This is simply forcing Mr. Liao.

He was so angry that he flicked his sleeves and left.

"According to the procedure, we should be suing the Qingzhou government at this time." Su Nancheng said.

Master Ma looked over, frowned and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"My lord, the matter has come to this, what else can we do? Let alone you and me, even if His Royal Highness is here in person, the imperial envoy sent by His Majesty's order cannot be forced. But there is a problem in Xianzhou, and the higher-level Qingzhou government will ignore it. It cannot be justified.”

Master Ma looked at Su Nancheng and took a deep breath: "I underestimated you kid."

"I don't know how to answer my lord's words."

"Forget it, Mr. Zhang is indeed difficult to deal with. If he comes, then Liao Ziqing will be worried."

It's just that in this way, they are afraid that they will return to Beijing soon, after all, they can't do anything.

"Your Majesty's birthday is also over, so our trip was wasted." Mr. Ma sighed.

"My lord, don't say that. After returning to Beijing, you and I are the witnesses of Xianzhou. There are also those prisoners. Why don't you take them back to the capital?" Su Nancheng said.

Master Ma frowned: "Why did they tell us to take those prisoners away?"

"My lord, the daughter of Lord Xu, the prefect of Qingzhou, is the side concubine of the fourth prince. I heard that she is very favored. She gave birth to the eldest son of the mansion." Su Nancheng said.

Master Ma was taken aback, then nodded: "I don't remember that."

"He and the inspector of Qingzhou government are also relatives of sons and daughters." Su Nancheng said again.

Master Ma was surprised: "You also know this?"

"I heard it from my family members on weekdays." Su Nancheng said with a smile.

The third prince is very powerful, but the fourth prince is not unknown.It's nothing more than the fourth prince's mother clan being weaker.

But looking at his wives and concubines, they are not bad.

If the third prince is brought down, wouldn't the chance of the fourth prince be greater?
"You boy, you don't favor Prefect Yao. If you do this, what good will you gain? Your family is the same as the third prince." Madam Ma said intentionally.

"Whose bastard's future is not dependent on himself? I am only loyal to His Majesty." Su Nancheng cupped his hands to the north: "Loyal to the emperor, but also loyal to the prince."

"Hahahaha! Okay, I remember what you said, and I will tell His Highness when I get back. What you said is that relying on others is worse than relying on yourself."

Su Nancheng should be.

Believe it or not, anyway, he has expressed his attitude.

Lord Ma and his party kept a close eye on them, and Lord Liao couldn't stop them this time.

If they don't stop them, they are not in a hurry to leave.Just send someone to Qingzhou Mansion secretly.

What he is holding is the crown prince's seal letter, so naturally he is not afraid that the other party will not believe it.

As the inspector of the third rank, he has naturally met the prince and knows Yin Xin.

This one doesn't stand in line. If you don't stand in line, you can't move when you see the prince's seal.This is the power of the prince.

At the same time, Lord Ma's people also secretly went to see the prefect Xu.

Although Prefect Xu didn't agree, he didn't refuse either.Of course he couldn't say these words directly.

At the end of June, Master Ma and his party received the order from the prince to return to Beijing.

Even without their own words, the inspector Zhang had already prepared the eight criminals.

When Lord Liao and others wanted to stop him, it was too late.

After all, this place is under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou Prefecture.

On the way back to Beijing, there were eight more prisoners, so naturally they walked very slowly.Prison cars are very slow.

Camping at night, he sighed repeatedly: "Why do you think that the inspector Zhang doesn't care much about taxes? They don't seem to care. His Royal Highness doesn't care either."

"Yes, because they all have their own goals. No one is really worried about the suffering of the people." Su Nancheng smiled.

Qingzhou prefecture governs Xianzhou, how can it be completely ignorant of the situation in Xianzhou?

In other words, did Yao Shibin dare to completely hide it from Shangfeng?Do not honor the benefits?
It's just that when nothing happens, everyone turns a blind eye.

Now that something happened, let's do some acting.

In the final analysis, this is a political game. How can there be such a master?
Including the prince, his original intention is the same, he just wants to suppress the third prince who is pressing every step of the way.

Where did you think of the suffering of the people?
Su Nancheng knew from the beginning that no one could do it, Da Yuan needed some earth-shattering changes.Otherwise, relying on one person and two people, nothing can be changed.
