People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 349 Squeeze within the church, a complete break

Nancheng, Dingyuanfang, Back Street.

In the depths of the narrow alleys, inside and outside the simple courtyard, it is now densely packed with people.

Qi Guang carefully protected his wife and children behind him, and stood shoulder to shoulder with his old father beside Chaimen.

Inside is their home, which they bought after spending several years saving.

At this time, in the small courtyard, several policemen were rummaging back and forth, picking up the scabbard and fiddled with things.

Although these people were very careful, the small courtyard was still inevitably messed up.

Qi Guang's face was full of nervousness, even though he had tidied up very carefully, he was still worried that he would forget that something was not destroyed, and now it would be found out again.

In this situation, not only Qi Guang was nervous, but also all the neighbors outside were also nervous.

At this time, people from almost every household in Dingyuanfang came here to watch.

Fear, worry, nervousness, anticipation, all kinds of eyes intertwined, watching the Qi family being searched by officers and soldiers with complicated expressions.

Hu deputy catcher stood in the shadow of the corner of the courtyard, with his right hand pressed on the handle of the knife, looking at everything outside with sharp eyes.

He was entrusted by Du Bixing, who joined the army of Facao, to come and see in person, what's going on?

Why did so many immigrants from Muzhou in Zhoucheng betray Tianyin Sect at once?
Is this a conspiracy by the Tianyin Sect, or is there something else hidden in it?
Although it was said that Du Bixing had come forward, deputy catcher Hu knew in his heart that it was their county king who really wanted to know everything.

……

The Qi family can be considered a diligent family in this area, and their situation is much better than that of their neighbors.

The Qi family was not the only one in Dingyuanfang who went to register and wait for land reclamation and granting land. There were many other young men from Wuzhou immigrant families in this workshop who all went to the state government.

But now, Qi Guang is the first to come back.

At this moment, besides protecting his wife behind him, Qi Guang also looked at the crowd with a vicious expression.

With a look of resentment and hatred in his eyes, he was a middle-aged bearded man in an ocher silk robe.

Hu deputy catcher picked up the long knife and stood under the shadow, watching all this with great interest.

Tianyin believers also have the theory of piety and superficial belief.

If it was before last night, the Tianyin Sect still had great prestige among these Muzhou immigrants, and there were many devout believers; but after last night, countless Tianyin Sect members were beheaded by officers and soldiers, their family properties were fired, and their wives and children were killed. Without an official, even the cousin's family was implicated.

Under such circumstances, even the most devout people will inevitably feel turbulent in their hearts, lest the officers and soldiers will kill them in the next moment.

Especially when the news spread that the imperial court wanted to identify each Tianyin cultist, the wife of every family wept silently, while the father had already picked up the knife.

How about the others, deputy head arrester Qian doesn't know, but he knows that the Qi family is like this.

However, after trembling all night, the Qi family did not wait for the official dispatch, but instead waited for other news.

The government wants to reclaim wasteland and grant land.

As long as you have lived in Wuzhou for five years, and there are no Tianyin believers in your family.

Granting land, of course, has to be registered.

Qi Guang hadn't thought of this yet, his father had already walked out excitedly holding the knife.

Soon, even his wife stopped crying.

After a sleepless night, the whole family of the Qi family searched the house carefully and destroyed everything related to the Tianyin Sect. After making sure nothing happened, Qi Guang left home for the state capital.

Like his house, I don't know how many there are in the entire Dingyuanfang, and there are even more in the entire state city.

That means Qi Guang went early, otherwise, he would still be queuing up outside the state office.

Hu deputy catcher knew in his heart that Nanchang King's strategy of punishing his heart was only one of the great effects, and the other two were problems within the Tianyin Sect.

The venomous light just now is the proof.

Vice-Catcher Hu winked at the cronies at the side, and his subordinates immediately went out quietly.

However, Deputy Chief Hu himself walked towards Qi Guang. In his eyes, if he really wanted to find out all this, he had to start with Qi Guang.

Seeing deputy catcher Hu approaching, Qi Guang hurriedly cupped his hands, and asked a little nervously, "Butcher Hu, what's the matter?"

"Don't tell me to catch the head, just tell me to catch the head." Hu Danxu waved his hand, and then said with a gentle expression: "You don't have any prohibited items in your house. Now, you just need to go into the house again, and then you can go to the house. The state government has received the land grant!"

Qi Guang let out a long sigh of relief, although he didn't know what Bu Kuai Hu meant, but Qi Guang still stepped into the room.

Just after landing, Qi Guang saw a simple drawing placed under the threshold.

The drawing is very familiar, the statue of Tenyin Goddess.

When I was in the state government office before, there was such a pair under the door of the state government office.

Qi Guang immediately knew what Butou Hu and the others were doing now.

Qi Guang stepped on it, and immediately left a clear footprint, and it was directly printed on the face of Goddess Tianyin.

Qi Guang had already stepped on it once in the state office, so Qi Guang naturally didn't care, he looked up at his wife.

Hu Danxu's sharp eyes looked over at the same time, but Qi Shi gave Qi Guang an angry look, then pulled the two children and walked in.

The footsteps also stepped directly on the Tianyin Goddess Statue.

Then came the old man of the Qi family, with a smile on his face all the time, walking in directly all the way.

Without even looking down, she had already stepped on the face of Tianyin Goddess's portrait.

"It seems that your family is a little impatient?" Hu Danxu's face was full of surprise.

Qi Guang on the side smiled helplessly and said, "It's just to avoid being bullied by others as soon as possible."

"It seems that many people bully you on weekdays!" Hu Danxu suddenly understood.

This bullying is not only external, but also internal.

After figuring out the situation, Hu Danxu finally heaved a sigh of relief, then looked at the Li Chang beside him, and nodded.

The head of the village in his fifties immediately took out a small pine card with a number engraved on it seriously from his arms.

The head of the village handed over the small pine card, and said to Qi Guang gently: "From now on, you are a member of this village."

Qi Guang immediately cupped his hands and quickly took the small card, holding it tightly, and at the same time cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, chief!"

Qi Guang had seen this small card in other people's hands before, it was a proof that he was from this village, and now he also has it.

The Li Chang looked at Qi Guang with a satisfied smile on his face.

……

Standing in the quiet courtyard, Qi Guang looked at the queue which was not very long, with a little surprise on his face.

This is where the Land of Granting Fields is located, but unexpectedly there are not many people there.

Unlike the place where the household registration was registered before, the people are already two miles long.

Qi Guang didn't say anything, and didn't look around, but just quietly waited in the queue.

At this time, behind the osmanthus tree in the distance, Hu Danxu stood with both hands, and reported in detail everything he had encountered in Dingyuanfang before.

Du Bixing, who was wearing a dark green official robe, looked at Qi Guang from the shade of the tree, nodded slightly, and said, "If this is the case, then this person is of great use. You should keep an eye on him to see if he can pass the second test. Go and report to the prince now."

"Here!" Hu Danxu clasped his hands in salute, watched Du Bixing leave, then turned to look at Qi Guang.

Before he knew it, half an hour passed, and Qi Guang finally walked into the land where the field was granted.

At first glance, it is a huge map of Wuzhou, and then draw huge circles in the mountains of Longhua Mountain, Dapan Mountain, Panda Mountain, Kuaiji Mountain, Xianxialing, Longmen Mountain and Qianligang Mountain. The cards hang inside the circle.

Qi Guang immediately understood that that was where their granted land was.

Seeing the people in front of them discharge out with black wood, Qi Guang hurried forward and handed over the red transparent wooden stick and the small pine card in his hand.

After the official inside took it, he took a careful look, and then wrote on the side of the document, and asked Qi Guang's name and personal information in the middle, and finally took it from the pile of black wooden cards on the side. One piece, handed over to Qi Guang: "On the 43rd, I will grant you [-] acres of barren land at the northern foot of Dapan Mountain. After you harvest in summer, you must start plowing in autumn."

"After the summer harvest?" Qi Guang was slightly taken aback, took the black wooden card, and at the same time asked a little puzzled: "Shangguan, Xiaomin wants to start farming now, can't he?"

"It's not a question of whether it can be done or not." Hucao's officer was very patient, and said to Qi Guang and everyone behind him: "The order to open up wasteland and grant land was made by the chief officer Qianqiu of Nanchang County yesterday. It was only announced today.

I don’t know how long I’ve been waiting to get this now. It’s not easy to determine where your land is now. If you want to divide it accurately, I still need to go to the field when the time comes, and wait for you. Divide it. "

After a short pause, the official said with emotion: "The summer harvest is coming soon, and I and others are here to be responsible for the daily granting of fields, but most of the other colleagues have to go to various places to monitor the summer harvest, and want to go to the fields to distribute the land. There will be no time for the land, and everything will have to wait until after the summer harvest.”

Hearing what the official said, Qi Guang immediately understood.

In a word, the summer harvest is urgent, and no one can be spared to subdivide the fields.

After all, Qi Guang was still a little unwilling to give up, so he approached and asked in a low voice: "Si Li, I wonder if I can point out a more detailed place for the villain, so that the villain can go and have a look these days."

Hu Cao's official raised his head, gave him an angry look, and then said directly: "To tell you the truth, even if this field is given to you, you can't get it now."

"I can't get it." Qi Guang and the person behind him, as well as the people behind him, were startled, and immediately couldn't help asking: "Why can't I get it?"

"Because this part of the land belonged to Yin Tian before, and it was Qianqiu, the king of Biejia County, who wanted to grant you the land, so he forcibly took the land back from the hands of the aristocratic family. However, although the ownership of the land was taken back by the state government, But the produce on the field belongs to the aristocratic family before the end of the summer harvest, so it will not be given to you until the end of the summer harvest."

Seeing the disbelief on everyone's faces, Hucao Sili said angrily: "If Wuzhou had so many fields, they would have given them to the locals of Wuzhou over the years. How could I meet you waiting for a bargain? Just have fun while you wait."

The official waved his hand impatiently, and immediately drove Qi Guang out.

Hearing what Si Li said, although Qi Guang was still a little uneasy, he had already let go of a lot in his heart.

He just came out of the room, and before he thought about it carefully, he saw a man in his thirties, dressed as a scholar in a gray robe, who came out of the room on the other side, holding a document in his hand. Densely filled with words.

Qi Guang saw the black wooden sign under the document at a glance, and thinking of what was written on the document, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Qi Guang's mind: Could it be that this person has already obtained the correct land grant.

"Brother." Qi Guang hurried forward, took the scholar's arm, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, do you have any relationship? Why did you get the grant so quickly..."

"Aren't you going to see it by yourself?" The scholar waved his hand, threw Qi Guang away, and ran outside in big strides.

Qi Guang was a little dazed, but he soon understood.

The other party's reaction just showed that in that room, it was really possible to get the grant of land very quickly.

Looking around, seeing that no one was paying attention, Qi Guang immediately strode towards the side room, and then pushed open the door.

There were not many people in the room, and two officials in light blue robes were writing something on the table.

As soon as Qi Guang entered the door, he immediately attracted the other party's attention.

Seeing the other party looking at him, Qi Guang immediately cupped his hands: "This official, I don't know what to do..."

Before Qi Guang finished speaking, the other party waved his hand, and then pointed to the two wooden basins on one side.

Among the two wooden trays, one contains the tablet of Tianyin Goddess, and the other contains the wooden carving of Tianyin Goddess.

Just like in Hucao's room before, one was spat on fiercely, and the other was directly chopped several times on it.

Qi Guang immediately understood what the other party wanted him to do. Without hesitation, he walked over and directly landed on the tablet of Tianyin Goddess. It was cut on the wood carving.

On the shoulder of the wooden carving, a crack was cut open immediately,
After finishing all this, Qi Guang looked at the official at the side.

After seeing all this, the official nodded in satisfaction, and finally turned to Qi Guang and asked, "Do you know any places in the city where the rebels are hiding?"

"Ah!" Qi Guang was stunned, why is this a problem?
