Chapter 25
"The matter is all because of your Chenjiazhuang. How can you get rid of it?" Le Zhi pursed his lips, took another sip of water, and said, "Besides, if you don't destroy this wave of rampant pirates, you Chenjiazhuang will not be safe. Since you benefit, how can you not pay?"
"Based on this point, you should do your best to support the actions of the state."
Chen Xun had already sentenced this county magistrate who was slaughtering people and did not vomit bones in his heart. If he had not been required to go back and report the situation to the Dongguan County Magistrate and Guangzhou Prefecture, he would definitely not see tomorrow's sunrise.
I had already made a decision in my heart, so I simply stopped saying: "Sir Xie, let's go back and prepare now."
"You are sensible. When you wipe out this wave of pirates, you will forget about your Chenjiazhuang's previous affairs." Le Zhi finally knew that he could not be oppressed too ruthlessly, so he gave him a sweet date.
"Thank you for your mercy."
"However, in the future, the population and land of Chenjiazhuang can be reported to the book truthfully, and tax evasion will not occur anymore. The court is in a crisis and needs the financial support of our Guangnan. We cannot only care about personal interests and ignore the great power at this time."
Le Zhi's words were so righteous, but there was a little reason.
If Chen Xun didn't know that Zhao Gou's name was "Zhao Paopao" and "Wanyan Gou", he might have really recognized it. But Chen Xun, who came from later generations, knew very well how soft Song Ting was, how miserable the Han people in the northern region, and even the Han people in the Yangtze River Basin were.
If you give them money, it would be better to give it to the rebels in Hebei. After all, those rebels are really fighting against the Jin army and can cause losses to the Jin army.
...
It was still very cold in early spring. It was in the middle of the night. Everyone ran so fast that they didn’t carry camping equipment. Open-air camping must have suffered from wind and cold. In this era, wind and cold will be fatal.
So neither side was staying at the resting place for more.
Le Zhi took his men to a nearby village, intending to stay there or borrow a boat to return to Dongguan directly. Chen Xun took his men to the Chenjiazhuang in the dark and land.
"That county magistrate is really not a human being. If you don't leave some for me when you eat our dry food, you will leave some for me." Lu Hui cursed as he touched his gurgling stomach.
Although hunger will not kill anyone, the hunger and fire in the belly are burning and it feels so uncomfortable.
"Yes, looking at his tone of speaking, he completely despises our Chenjiazhuang and takes them away, which is infuriating." Another personal guard also met.
"You all know 'get the give and take the give and take'." Another personal guard quipped.
Since the incident, Chenjiazhuang has been ugly compared to Dongguan County, although the actual loss is small, so the chat atmosphere of a few people is relatively relaxed. In such a cold day, if you rush around overnight and don’t chat, time will be difficult to bear.
"The emperor served as the herdsmen of heaven, and the Song Ting official family and the scholar-official family ruled the world together. As a county magistrate, Le Zhi was also a Jinshi who was admitted to the imperial examination and the standard scholar-official class." Chen Xun also felt a little bored, so he took the opportunity to popularize knowledge for several people: "So in Le Zhi's view, the world is the official family and their scholar-official family, and even the officials are ranked second. Because no matter who is the emperor, they need these scholar-officials to govern the people and protect the world."
Seeing that the few people were a little confused, Chen Xun continued to explain: "So in his opinion, we are just grass, weeds on the roadside, and we will grow even if we die. As long as their own interests are not damaged, the interests of our grass are nothing."
"No wonder they want to occupy our property and look down on us." Lu Hui suddenly realized. "In his eyes, we are cattle and sheep, and crops. If you farm yourself, a small piece of crop was arched by wild boars. You may be very angry, but you don't think it is too serious." This is a metaphor for Chenjiazhuang being robbed by pirates and Le Zhi also brought people over to continue extortion.
