The princess married: the black-bellied general is happy to be a father

Chapter 404 Gu Hou is Back
Chapter 404 Gu Hou is Back
The leaders were three middle-aged people, one of whom seemed to be a teacher, and there were more than a dozen students who looked like students behind them.

The other two are big local landlords, and they own thousands of acres of land around the city, as well as many shops in the city.

All the nobles in Qingzhou are gone, even if some people are still alive, the property under their names has been confiscated by the imperial court and belonged to the imperial court.Both of them were ordinary people with no bureaucratic background, so the court did not touch their property.

In fact, they were also afraid of Lieyang's army at first, but later found that the Lieyang court was very gentle. Now that they are in Qingzhou, Princess Yunchu wants to reform the system here, which affects their interests. Of course, the two families will not do it. Then he had the courage to make a scene.

The teacher sneered and said, "Since Princess Yunshuang is sympathetic to the suffering of the people, why didn't she persuade Gu Hou and the princess to exempt the people from taxation? Instead, let us give up our harvest to subsidize those irrelevant people. Look at these The rich family, who is not a member of the big family, what will they eat if they give up their own interests?"

Mu Yunshuang sneered: "So, you all don't obey the imperial court's system?"

Upon hearing this, everyone flinched.

But when I think about the more than 200 people standing here, including the elderly and children, the law does not blame the public, and the Lieyang court can really drive them all to death?
"Our property is the result of the hard work of our ancestors. When Xuanguo managed this place, it didn't take care of how we collected rent. Why should Lieyang take care of this now? The imperial court insists on using power to oppress people and oppress them. We ordinary people, we have nothing to say, and we are powerless to resist, but we will never back down!"

"Mr. Zhu is right! Death is lighter than a feather and heavier than Mount Tai. We will never bow our heads to power!"

"Never back down!"

Mr. Zhu's students took the lead in expressing their support, and the rest immediately followed, with great momentum, they crushed Mu Yunshuang's rhetoric in an instant.

The surroundings were already full of ordinary people, they could only watch silently, occasionally a few whispered to each other, and they couldn't really hear what they said.

Mu Yunchu's carriage couldn't get in outside the crowd, so she had no choice but to get out of the carriage, and finally squeezed into the crowd to watch those troublemakers.

"Sister-in-law, this is the mansion where Marquis Lie Yang works. Why are these people making trouble here?" Mu Yunchu stopped a woman and asked in a low voice.

The woman said: "Look at the woman is a wealthy family, don't you know that the Lieyang court does not allow you rich people to charge too much rent?"

The woman obviously didn't want to get close to the rich, and Mu Yunchu didn't care, and said, "I know about this, and my family doesn't dare to have any objections to it. They are making trouble because of this, and everyone is fighting How can you dare to have an opinion on the system of the imperial court when you are living in the hands of the Yang court?"

This made the woman quite satisfied, and said with a smile: "That's the truth, but they just want to make trouble, I really don't know why the court didn't arrest them."

The people around who heard these words all nodded in agreement. Mu Yunchu was happy to see their attitudes, and what he wanted was the attitude of the common people.

"What's the matter with those people in the crowd? I see that they are all poor people, why do they want to make trouble together?" Mu Yunchu asked, pointing at the poor people in the crowd.

It can be seen that those people are indeed living a hard life, each of them is very thin, their skin is dark and rough, and they will definitely not idle around.

"Madam, don't you come from other places? The Zhang family and the Li family are bullies here. Half of the tenants under their hands owe debts that they can't repay in their lifetime. The two families only We need to tell them to come together to make trouble so that they don’t have to pay their debts, who can’t come?”

It turned out to be like this, Mu Yunchu really didn't have that much time to understand these things.

At this moment, someone suddenly said: "In fact, what Mr. Zhu said is also reasonable. If the Lieyang court wants to help the people, it will help the people. Of course, they are not willing to use their property to help the people. Just imagine the harvest of your hard work for a year. Let you give it to someone else, are you willing?"

Mu Yunchu looked at that person, who was dressed as a scholar.

However, the common people scoffed at his words. They couldn't say anything to refute, but they didn't agree with what the scholar said.

Mu Yunchu smiled lightly.It sounds reasonable, but in her opinion, these words are fallacies.

Did Xuanguo ask them if they were rich or poor when they collected taxes?
Will they be starved to death?
The imperial army is stationed not far from the city. These people in Qingzhou are subjugated slaves. They are not the people of Lieyang, they are subjugated slaves, understand?

Since ancient times, there have been countless massacres of the city after the war, but the Lieyang court was unwilling to treat them as subjugated slaves, was willing to accept them, and was willing to give them a living space, and did not wave the butcher knife at them weak.

This is the kindness of the court.

But there is such a small group of people in front of the government yamen, who think they are weak and innocent, and use the court's kindness to make trouble.

Mu Yunchu didn't make a sound, she was going to see how Mu Yunshuang would deal with it.

Mu Yunshuang obviously couldn't talk to them. Nangong Shaoyang stood up and said something, which was similar to what Mu Yunchu thought in his heart. He said that since ancient times, there have been countless massacres of the city after the war, and the part occupied by Nanzhao People in the land are living in dire straits, and asked those who caused troubles if they also thought about such a life.

But the troublemaker didn't answer this, saying that it was all for a good man from Nangong Shaoyang to marry Prince Rui's mansion, and he also took away his brother's position as city lord and asked his brother to be a proton, saying that he was not worthy of being a son or a brother.

Nangong Shaoyang knew that he was not wrong in this matter, but explaining the process to these people would be very troublesome, so he could only keep a cold face.

Mu Yunchu's eyes deepened, and his eyes fell on Mr. Zhu who was speaking.

At this moment, the army suddenly cleared the way and pushed the crowd to both sides.

During this battle, the onlookers backed away in fright, and the expressions of the 200 or so people who made the disturbance changed instantly. After all, they were still afraid of force.

I saw a man with a cold face like a Shura coming down slowly from the spacious carriage. How many peach blossoms.

Who else could this person be if it wasn't Gu Yuting?
He patrolled the place for ten days, and finally came back at this moment.

Wen Ce and Lu Ziguan got off the carriage behind him, and as Gu Yuting got off the carriage, an old man followed behind him, and a slim young girl followed beside the old man.

The boiling crowd had become silent at the moment, Gu Yuting glanced at the rioting crowd indifferently, and people automatically gave way to him wherever he passed, and he went straight to Mu Yunshuang: "Where's Yunchu?"
