Chapter 371 Yes! The three Yi tribes!

Towards the east of the city, in the direction of Yiqu.

The governor of Beidi County abandoned his carriage and drove his horse with the county lieutenant, county magistrate and others anxiously towards the west.

"Is the information accurate enough?"

The county lieutenant beside him shouted back.

"It's absolutely accurate. The scout who came back from Henan told me personally!"

"His Royal Highness the Prince left the expeditionary army and did not even bring his silver-armored heavy cavalry with him."

"I only brought 200 people back to Xianyang, and they will definitely pass by our Beidi County."

"We should be near Chaona City by now."

The county guard suddenly became more anxious.

"How is it possible? The Su family has a huge background in the court."

Behind him were all those eyes full of pity.

One of them couldn't help but sigh.

"Not to mention the county magistrate, even the county guard can't move."

The shouter was a muddy figure with a sloppy face.

"It is an unprecedented feat to bring the entire Xiongnu territory into our Qin Dynasty."

"Give me all your strength and come with me to meet His Highness as soon as possible."

Toward the southwest corner of the city.

"Shhhh!"

"Here comes the ghost."

But the words were not finished.

"How unbecoming it is to return from such a great victory and no one greets you on your way back home!"

"His Royal Highness's million-strong army crushed the Xiongnu."

People can only shake their heads and keep moving forward.

"Oh, it's this poor girl again."

“It’s best to take it with the county magistrate too!”

……

It looks gloomy and dim.

"I'm afraid this person who reports to the official will not end well."

Seeing that no one was paying attention, the girl ran towards the center of the city with a pair of frightened eyes.

At this time, someone beside him sneered sarcastically.

People were walking in a hurry on the street, and they were all gathering at the government office.

"The evil man-eating ghost is coming! Run!"

The scolding from the person next to him immediately ended the topic.

The county magistrate originally wanted to stop him, but Wang Cheng stepped forward and scolded him.

"I really hope that the person who reported it to the police can really take down the murderer."

"My parents were killed by wolves, and I was frightened into madness."

"Well, we just went there to see if we could collect his whole body."

At this time, an exclamation came from outside the city.

But the villagers who turned around to look at her showed no reaction, as if they were used to it.

"It's not like the Su family killed someone cruelly and led a few dogs to destroy the body and eliminate any traces."

Suddenly a dark cloud floated over, and the sky seemed to be gradually shrouded in black cloth.

"Where did the wolf come from?"

"Be careful and the county magistrate will arrest you. Do you want to die?"

"If the Su family hadn't bought her land, she would have starved to death!"

Ying Xuan has already entered the government office.

She ran and shouted to the people around her.

……

"You don't want your life?"

As more and more people gathered around.

Seeing that his voice softened, the person who just scolded him also sighed.

"This is the censor given by His Royal Highness the Prince himself."

"You dare to stop me?"

The county magistrate was frightened for a moment and had to retreat while urging his servants to report the news.

Ying Xuan looked indifferent and walked directly over the crowd to the court.

He turned around and looked at Chen Ping.

"The laws of the Qin Dynasty provide a tax of one per ten."

"Each household has ten acres and only needs three shi to produce 30 shi per year."

"But when I came here, why did I hear that one year old needs to be taxed one hundred dan?"

"I ask you, can it be true?"

Chen Ping glanced at Lu Lujian beside Ying Xuan.

He shouted back almost without hesitation.

"It's indeed true!"

"Not only that, there is a conspiracy between the big families here and the county magistrate."

"They fabricated taxes to oppress the people and seized fertile farmland, causing the people to live in dire straits."

"When they met those who resisted, they killed people and destroyed their corpses. They were full of evil."

"Afterwards, all these evil deeds were blamed on me, the Crown Prince of Qin."

"It can be said that the crime is so heinous that a hundred deaths will never eliminate his hatred."

"Please ask the censor to make decisions for the people!"

Chen Ping bowed his head and shouted in pain.

Ying Xuan narrowed his eyes,

"What is the evidence of guilt? Tell me!"

Chen Ping looked up again.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise from behind.

Immediately afterwards, people heard a woman’s frightened voice

"The ghost is coming! The ghost is coming, run away!"

Chen Ping turned around and shouted.

"Wan'er."

"You can wake up."

"There is someone here who can kill ghosts for you!"

After the words fell, the sharp shouts outside suddenly stopped.

The people who were watching turned back one after another.

I saw that the girl who had always been crazy was actually walking here now.

Everyone immediately whispered.

"Is it possible that she has been pretending to be crazy?"

"Oh, if you want to pretend, just pretend to the end!"

"Now that it's exposed, won't it mean that I'm going to die here in vain?"

As everyone makes way.

The girl covered in mud came into the hall with blank eyes.

Chen Ping immediately pointed at the girl with grief and anger on his face.

"Censor, this is the witness!"

"I passed by this place when I was traveling upstream to Shimokita a few years ago, and I rested at her house."

"Her parents are loyal and kind-hearted and work hard every day."

"At that time, this girl was still a carefree child."

"But after not seeing each other for just a few months, when I came back, her parents were thrown into the wilderness and died without a burial place."

"Even she can only pretend to be crazy and act stupid to save her life!"

Chen Ping's words were sad.

"I did my best to investigate and found out that everything was just because the Su family wanted to buy her farmland by force."

"They refused to sell, so the Su family sent people to destroy their crops."

"Until they came to stop him, the retainers beat him to death in the field while pushing him!"

"Such a thing is simply appalling."

"I wanted to report it to the official, but I learned that the matter was also related to the county magistrate."

"There is no clean place in this vast universe."

"If we don't get rid of it, the sky of Da Qin will be blackened by these people sooner or later."

"There's not even a ray of sunshine!"

Ying Xuan leaned forward slightly and narrowed his eyes.

He looked up at the crazy woman and the people behind him.

"What he said is true?"

The woman's eyes were empty, and she just stared at Chen Ping without replying.

But among the people at the rear, someone lowered his head and shouted.

"it is true!"

This sentence seems to arouse people's sense of resistance.

"Yes, it's true!"

"The Su family colluded with the county magistrate to levy taxes and force people to sell their fields."

"Please make the decision for us!"

At this moment, there was sudden chaos outside the government office.

The onlookers were pushed aside by a group of vicious retainers with long sticks.

An arrogant voice sounded.

"The decision is not made by the county magistrate."

"Who are you praying to?"

The voice fell.

A middle-aged man with a big belly walked in.

Behind him was the head of the Su family with a gloomy face.

The hundreds of retainers who followed immediately drove the people aside.

The magistrate looked up at Ying Xuan at the top.

His face turned cold.

"Who are you?"

"How dare you stand in my position!"

"Trespassing into the government office privately, gathering people to cause trouble, and according to the law, you should be punished eighty times!"

"Do you know your sin?"

Wang Cheng was immediately furious.

He took a step forward and pointed at the county magistrate and scolded him.

"Bastard!"

"You are not polite when you see the censor, and you dare to speak arrogantly."

"Where do you get the guts from!"

Such violence gave the county magistrate a meal.

But he was not frightened. The servant just now had informed them of this.

They were also prepared. "What censor!"

"When did our Great Qin have the position of censor under the crown prince?"

"You wilderness villagers dare to impersonate at will? Don't you know that this is the crime of the Yi tribe?"

"Come here, take them all down!"

Before coming, he discussed it with the head of the Su family.

Even if this person is really the censor of His Royal Highness, they cannot recognize him.

If they admit it now, they will lose control.

If those unruly people who lost their land would all follow and resist.

It is impossible for this person to really sentence them to death according to the laws of Daqin.

Therefore, it must be controlled first and someone immediately send a message to the court.

Let him come and come forward to free this person.

At that time, whether it is true or false, it can be resolved with a misunderstanding.

As hundreds of retainers poured into the government office.

Ying Xuan and others were easily surrounded.

The county magistrate became more relaxed.

"I am an official of the imperial court. Naturally, I only recognize your majesty and the imperial censor."

"What kind of royal censor, Your Highness? Even if His Highness is here, you can't touch my official uniform!"

These words caused the people around him to fall into silence again.

No one dared to say another word.

The thin man kneeling on the ground was also shivering.

"I haven't done anything, I don't know anything."

"They brought me here by force!"

Chen Ping also became quiet at this moment.

When the county magistrate saw this scene, he immediately sneered.

"Have you seen, there is no grievance in Chaona County!"

"You are just pretending to be an official of the imperial court to confuse the people."

"Put them all into prison and wait for me to deal with them!"

Just as the surrounding retainers came forward one by one with sticks.

Just heard an angry shout.

"Eat the dog's guts!"

Er Niu, who was standing beside him, could no longer bear the giant ax in his hand.

It fell with a crash, as if swatting a fly.

A sound of "Bang!" slapped the approaching retainer against the wall.

The retainer suddenly started to bleed from his orifices and fell to the ground unconscious.

This scene frightened the retainers.

The county magistrate even widened his eyes and roared.

"Okay!"

"How dare you commit murder and hurt people in broad daylight?"

"According to Da Qin law, the crime will be increased by one level!"

"Where are the executioners?"

As soon as the words fell, the executioners who had been surrounding him all drew out their swords.

Press forward step by step.

The scene was so frightening that people fled in all directions.

But Ying Xuan didn't care.

He looked at the magistrate coldly.

"I, the soldiers of Great Qin, are fighting to the death on the front line."

"Exchange your life for the stability of Great Qin."

"But you are in the rear, suppressing the people, and turning the prosperous Qin Dynasty into a mess of chaos."

"It's really impossible to redeem yourself by death!"

The county magistrate sneered and ignored the urging of the criminal officer again to capture everyone.

Er Niu was furious and no longer held back his hand. One person stood in front, waving a giant axe. Anyone who dared to approach would be immediately photographed and stunned.

For a while, no one dared to step forward.

The county magistrate was very angry.

at this time.

Suddenly someone outside sent a message.

"Report!"

"Oh no!"

"The county guard came straight from the east gate with thousands of soldiers!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

But then the head of the Su family burst out laughing.

"I knew that that person would definitely leave a confidant in Beidi County."

"Otherwise, how can we take care of us? How can we give you the position of county magistrate?"

The words of the head of the Su family made the county magistrate, who was originally a bit disoriented, suddenly overjoyed.

"That's right!"

"The county governor must have been under that person's care."

"Now as soon as I receive the news, I will come to help immediately!"

After hearing this, the people outside who had some hope became even more desperate.

"Even the county guards are in the same group, how can there be any fairness and justice in this world?"

"What nonsense Da Qin laws are, they are just a way for them to oppress and control us!"

Some people even looked at Ying Xuan with regret.

"It's a pity for these heroes under the prince's command."

"I didn't die on the battlefield with the Xiongnu, but I died in the hands of a small county magistrate!"

At this moment, Chen Ping, who had never spoken a word, shook his head again and sighed.

"Who would be afraid of ghosts after seeing the human heart?"

"Really, the prosperity of the people is suffering! The death of the people is suffering!"

Such words made Ying Xuan even more heartbroken.

The new Great Qin that he worked so hard for turned out to be like this.

These rats and cockroaches were in the dark corners, wreaking havoc on the results of his hard work.

Everyone who has a little bit of power does not treat the common people as human beings.

Who are you fighting for?

The veins on the back of Ying Xuan’s hands were exposed one by one.

His face was extremely cold.

Looking at the sarcastic magistrate, he suddenly shouted.

"Somebody come!"

"Get them for me!"

Patriarch Su sneered at this moment.

"I knew a long time ago that you would have a back-up plan."

"Take it out now, it's too late!"

Immediately afterwards, two hundred troops rushed in from other directions of the government office.

The retainers under the head of the Su family all drew their swords.

Seeing that hundreds of people from both sides were about to fight together.

The sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded on the east side.

"stop!"

A loud shout came.

Attracting everyone to look.

The county magistrate looked happy.

"Sheriff, you came at the right time!"

"This person dared to pretend to be the imperial censor, and also deceived the people with the intention of rebelling."

The Beidi County Sheriff heard this sound from a distance.

But how could he be in the mood to care about this now.

His Royal Highness is on his way back.

But there were hundreds of people fighting with weapons in their own jurisdiction.

If he saw this scene.

Not even cutting off his own head.

At this time, the head of the Su family held a jade stone.

He ran to the county guard in small steps.

"Sheriff, this is the token."

Then he pointed at the government office and shouted.

"You have to make the decision for our Su family. This is the person who slandered our Su family and oppressed the people for no reason."

"Fish neighbor."

"What a pity, how could our Su family be so heartless!"

At this time, the county magistrate also lowered his head and ran after him.

"Yes, he has hundreds of accomplices. They may be dressed up as bandits from nearby."

The two people's words made the governor narrow his eyes.

When he saw Yushi, he understood who the other party was talking about.

But now it doesn’t matter whether these two people are guilty or not.

Is the person they are talking about really pretending to be a censor?

This matter must be dismissed at this moment.

It is absolutely possible to be seen by His Highness who has returned.

Otherwise, given His Highness's iron will, there is no telling how many people would die!

The Sheriff narrowed his eyes.

"Come here, please escort both parties to me first."

"Send away the people around you."

"We will deal with it after His Highness leaves!"

As soon as the words fell, the two of them were shocked.

The county magistrate shouted anxiously.

"Sheriff, you made a mistake!"

"This person is pretending to be the censor, it has nothing to do with us!"

"He is the one who deceived the people. This crime should be punished by the three clans!"

The county magistrate pointed anxiously in the direction of the government office.

It happened that Ying Xuan led everyone out.

The Sheriff only glanced briefly.

Suddenly the whole person seemed to explode.

"Your Highness~!"
