The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 859 Non-stick pan

"For the past month, the county magistrate has been working hard, and now he is exhausted. He passed out and fell down the steps just now!"

"The case... I'm afraid it won't be tried for the time being!"

In front of everyone, the guard introduced the situation.

The country gentry who came to hear the trial had already prepared their firepower, but now Hu Yuanjun "fainted" directly, and they could only silence.

"When is the magistrate going to be promoted?" Someone immediately asked.

The guard showed a look of perplexity, and replied: "The county lord can't stand up, I'm afraid it will be difficult!"

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Liu Quan yelled loudly: "The county magistrate can't judge, I will go to the government office to sue!"

"That's right, report to the mansion!"

In the crowd, there was no lack of good-natured people booing, which made the squires extremely upset.

A squire taunted: "Go to the government to sue? There are many reasonable places in this world, and you will lose wherever you go!"

"I don't know what it means!" another squire said.

Then, these people left hand in hand, and talking to Mudlegzi would only make them feel inferior.

The gentry left, but Liu Quan didn't panic at all, because it was useless for him to panic.

"Go to the mansion and sue, I'm afraid you will lose!" Wang Xin walked in front of Liu Quan and reminded calmly.

Looking Wang Xin up and down, and then at the followers behind him, Liu Quan knew that this person was not simple.

"Young master, the new emperor is now, and the world has changed..."

"If my humble life is used to exchange the lives of those old men and their families, I will be worth it!" Liu Quan said loudly.

Before Wang Xin could ask, someone immediately asked, "Why do you trade the lives of those gentlemen?"

"Those gentlemen who conceal the land in private are disobeying the emperor's will. If this matter is revealed, they will not die?"

When the scene was silent, someone with a quick head said, "So... the forty acres of land you want is hidden by Zhang Dajia's family?"

"Since it has not been reported to the government, it is a land without owner. I said it was my man's fault? First come, first served!" Liu Quan said with a smile.

"According to what you said, Mr. Chen has seventy acres of land, so I can say it's mine?"

Pointing at the person who spoke, Liu Quan said hastily: "Of course we can. Long Live the Emperor will make the decision for us!"

For a while, everyone on the scene started talking, and they were all exchanging what they had learned.

Being in it, Wang Xin realized that his understanding was too shallow.

These big households were bolder than he imagined, and they concealed so much land.

After listening to Liu Quan's narration, the people present opened up a new world, and they all had different ideas.

It's just that they won't take action immediately, but will wait for the outcome of Liu Quan's matter.

Of course, Brother Minxing must support Liu Quan, so he is also willing to build momentum for him.

As a result, although the case was not promoted to the court, the heat of this matter has become even higher.

There was no need for him to enter the Xuanning county government office where Wang Xin had left. He felt that Liu Quan's case deserved more attention.

Two days later, Hu Yuanjun, the magistrate of the county, was unable to sit on the board, and the county magistrate escaped on the grounds of collecting taxes, so that the case could not be tried for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Liu Quan was not idle, he found several loopholes in two days, and even sued Wuwei, a big family in the county, and claimed nearly [-] mu of land for himself.

On the seventh day of May, Liu Quan reported the case to the government office, and this move attracted more gentry to watch, which made Zhang Zhifu very embarrassed.

Reputable people in Fucheng, as well as prominent households in various counties and villages, all exerted pressure on him.

On the other hand, Hu Lizhen, the inspector censor, also noticed the case and told him that the case must be judged impartially.

This time, Zhang Zhifu was directly set up, so he could only delay it for the time being, and only waited for the payment of Pinglu's salary to be collected.

Because the case was pending, the matter became more and more fermented, and the big gentry spread the news.

For a long time, in the face of the imperial court's high-handed policy, the gentry retreated, and this incident happened to unite them.

Originally, Prefect Yang wanted to judge the case impartially, but when more and more people greeted him, he, a small prefect, couldn't handle it anymore.

Ever since, he also fell ill in office, imitating Hu Yuanjun and throwing the pot away.

The gentry only thought that they had won, and if this matter dragged on, it would be nothing. Who knew that Liu Quan was not afraid of death, so he directly sued the Inspector General of Jing'an Mansion.

Hearing the sound of drums outside, Jiangxi Inspectorate Zhao Yaoyin had a bitter expression on his face, his lobby was full of guests at the moment.

When Liu Quan said that he wanted to go to the county to seek justice, people came to him one after another, hoping that he could make decisions for the gentry.

"My lord, Liu Quan is just a helpless local ruffian who has done a lot of evil things in the countryside. The government should have severely punished him long ago!"

"Now that he is getting more and more courageous, he actually blackmailed a big family in the county. How can an adult help a tiger?"

"That's exactly the case. Now that the imperial court is levying taxes, big households from all over the world are paying taxes with all their heart. Don't let everyone's hearts be chilled!"

"Yes, my lord, if that ruffian surnamed Liu succeeds in his plot, there will be no justice in this world!"

"My lord's hometown also has property, if it is also targeted by the ruffians helplessly, can we let them plunder?"

In front of Zhao Yaoyin, there were all seniors in their seventies and eighties, who were highly respected and once held important positions, so Zhao Yaoyin could only listen humbly to what they had to say.

At this moment, the drums outside were still ringing, making Zhao Yaoyin very upset.

"Come on!
"The humble position is here, please give me your orders!"

"Bring the person into the Yamen first, don't let him knock!"

"As ordered!"

After giving this order, everyone was still staring at Zhao Yaoyin, waiting for him to give an explanation.

"Everyone, this case is of great importance, and I dare not make any claims..."

Standing up, Zhao Yaoyin glanced at the crowd and said, "This case, I will report to the Governor, and the Shangguan will make his own decision at that time!"

In other words, Zhao Yaoyin chose to throw the blame at the moment, and he understood this method very well.

"Everyone, please go back first, even if the Governor cannot deal with it, there is still the old man who will give you justice!" Zhao Yaoyin said with a smile.

In other words, from Zhao Yaoyin's point of view, Governor Ding Yan didn't dare to make a decision on this matter, and it would eventually come to Xie Xiaofang.

Only Xie Xiaofang, the cabinet minister who bears the banner of the king's order and has the right to act first, dares to touch this small land case of several hundred acres.

Seeing no movement from the crowd, Zhao Yaoyin went on to say: "I have important matters to attend to, so I won't accompany you all!"

Then, Zhao Yaoyin just slipped away, leaving a group of old men alone.

Everyone was silent for a while, only to hear someone say: "Find more people to petition. If a little ruffian wins, what else can we control in the future?"

This sentence quickly attracted everyone's agreement, and they were indeed very united for this matter.

Because this small case is related to their most fundamental property, that is, the right to control the land.

If a ruffian dares to occupy their land, then other people will have to worry about their undeclared land.

Immediately afterwards, a group of old men walked out of the Chasi, and then went home.

They didn't go home to rest, but to connect with more energetic people and put pressure on the government with them.

They dare not stand against the imperial power, but they still have the courage to deal with a small ruffian.

Ever since, the case of the small [-] mu of land is indeed getting bigger and bigger.

And all of this was in Wang Xin's eyes the whole time, and the methods of throwing the blame at all levels of government officials opened his eyes.
