Seeing this, the other villagers also prepared to rest with each other.

But at this moment, a long whip struck and lashed at the villagers who were sitting down.

"Snapped!"

The villager who sat down was drawn.

He screamed loudly in pain and bounced on the spot.

The villagers who wanted to rest or were working all looked this way.

"Who allowed you to rest?"

"Listen up, don't rest!"

"Delayed the project of Lord Inspector, interrupted your legs!"

The yamen servant scolded.

The riding whip in his hand whipped again in the air.

There was another snap, shaking the hearts of all the villagers.

"I...I plant my own field, what's the matter with taking a break?"

The man who was beaten was outraged.

Frightened and angry, he questioned the yamen servant.

"Noisy!"

"Do you dare to question the order of Lord Inspector?!"

The yamen servant's eyes turned cold, and he whipped the man hard again.

The man's clothes were torn immediately, and a bloodstain appeared on his body.

"Bastard, I'm fighting with you!"

The man was furious.

With red eyes, he wanted to rush to the yamen servant.

The yamen servant snorted coldly, without any fear, he threw the long whip in his hand on the ground, and the saber in his waist.

As long as the man dares to rush forward, he will send it with a knife. Even if the other party is killed, he deserves it.

But at this moment, the man was hugged by the villagers, preventing him from rushing forward to take revenge.

"Don't be impulsive, think about your son, think about your parents."

After the man heard it, the madness in his eyes slowly faded away.

He endured the aggrieved, picked up the bucket and returned to the water carrying team.

From this moment on, the steps of the villagers are heavy.

Lin Yangbo on the top looked at everything with a sinister smile.

This officer is only following the orders of Lord Inspector.

Apart from Sanjia Village in Liaoshan County, similar incidents are also happening in Hepingcheng County, Yushe County.

Chapter 66

Night falls.

The villagers dragged their exhausted bodies and minds back.

What happened today made them angry and scared.

During today's work, a total of sixteen villagers were whipped.

If they are found to be lazy, they will be whipped. There is no mercy at all, as if they are criminals.

After the meal, at the headman's house of Sanjia Village, a few respectable old men and a few young men in full swing gathered around the fire.

"It's disgusting, is this also a re-cultivation together?"

Some young people are upset.

It was the first man to be whipped today.

He was whipped twice in total, and he wanted to kill that yamen servant.

If he hadn't considered that his son was still young and his parents were old, he would have almost risked it all.

"Village chief, what do you say?"

"Just let them bully us like this?"

Another young man spoke.

When finishing work in the afternoon, Lin Yangbo told him to continue tomorrow.

That is to say, they will be oppressed by government servants tomorrow just like today.

Who could bear to be stared at like this when he was clearly carrying water for his own fields?

"Then what do you think should be done?"

The village chief leaned against the wall tiredly.

He is 50 years old and almost died of exhaustion today.

"Go and sue them!"

The young people at the scene spoke hard.

"Where to report?"

The village chief smiled bitterly.

How could he not know to sue them.

But the restoration of farming was ordered by the governor, and they only listened to the governor's words.

Everyone was silent, only the lights of fireworks in the night, stretching the figures of the people to a long distance.

After a while.

"Village Chief, I don't think Lord Inspector is that kind of person."

"Since he resumed farming in various counties and opened ten factories to recruit workers for wages, there is no need to make things difficult for us."

"I suspect that the county magistrate's dogs and beasts did the trick. I still want to go to the governor and report them!"

The young man who was whipped said in a deep voice.

He was not angry and wanted to seek justice for himself.

"Ah Lei, if today's matter is ordered by the governor, you may not be able to come back. Are you sure you want to go?"

The mayor sighed.

Didn't hold back, but said pros and cons.

If the governor and the county magistrate collude, there is a high probability that they will not come back after this trip.

"I......"

Aleigh clenched his fists tightly, words stuck in his throat.

At this moment, the figures of parents, wife and children came to mind.

"I go!"

"My parents died early, and I have no brothers or sisters. Brother Lei has been kind to me all these years. I can't just watch him being bullied like this!"

A young man stood up in the field.

He was still young, about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a little childishness on his face.

"Dog!"

Ale choked up.

In this way, Sanjia Village is ready to appeal.

Gouzi set off overnight with several young people.

However, on the only way to Liaozhou City, they were beaten half to death, and then thrown at the entrance of Sanjia Village. The villagers only found out after the village dog barked in the middle of the night.

Since then, the village head and others dare not think about suing.

......

this night.

A major event also happened in Liaozhou City.

The governor's mansion was on fire, and three state officials who were watching the night were injured.

Something was missing, like a theft, but a fire broke out and burned a lot of documents.

After hearing the news, Fang Yuan got up overnight and rushed from Fang Mansion with his guards, and put out the fire with officials from other places.

"Check carefully!"

"What was lost, what was burned, and reported one by one!"

Fang Yuan's face was heavy, and he said coldly.

There are still people who dare to break into the governor's mansion, which is really courageous.

Ordinary people should not have the guts to beat the three state officials on duty.

Then it may be some desperadoes, or it may be some aristocratic families in Liaozhou City.

The probability of the former is not high, but the latter makes Fang Yuan very suspicious.

After a while.

"The department of meritorious service is not lost!"

"The Sicang office is not lost!"

"The Sihu office is not lost!"

......

"Zhou Zun, the archives office in the front yard was burned, and fifteen calligraphy and paintings and seven vases were lost in the back yard."

Not long after, the people in charge of various places came back to report after counting their belongings.

In the end, it was Zhang San who was in charge of the file office that was burned, and something was missing in the backyard.

"Archives?!"

Fang Yuan frowned deeper.

The file office is the place where files, documents and meeting minutes are stored.

"Zhou Zun, is it possible..."

Zhang San frowned and said in a deep voice.

Not long ago, they just held a high-level meeting in Liaozhou.

"Where is the person who told you to stare at them?"

Fang Yuan naturally also thought of that aspect.

What are these guys trying to do by sending someone to burn down the file office?

"They come back every night to report. They don't know what happened today, and they haven't come back yet."

Zhang San said in a deep voice.

Fang Yuan asked him to send someone to watch the three magistrates.

These people usually send someone back at night to tell the situation.

But he didn't come back today, Zhang San didn't think so much, so he didn't tell Fang Yuan yet.

Now that this incident happened, he only thought about it. Something must have happened to prevent them from coming back.
