The Reborn Lady is Farming

Mu Yangling broke free from Mu Shi's hand, pushed aside the crowd and stepped forward to stop the person who was about to dig out the land deed, looked at the Wu Zhifu with bright eyes, and asked loudly: "Master Zhifu, the little girl has no shape, but I really want to have some questions. I ask you, you are our parental official, we are considerate of you, and dare not ask you to treat us like sons, but only to be fair and honest.”

After saying that, without waiting for Wu Shancai to answer, he asked in a deep voice: "Sir, although the little girl is ignorant, she also knows that every prefecture and even every county has a grain depot, and the old grain is replaced with new grain every autumn harvest. Grain and old grain are sold. If Mingshui County is breached, even if the grain relief depot is robbed, there are still grain depots in the two subordinate counties. Furthermore, the grain relief depot in Fucheng is three times that of the county seat. If you don’t want to lend me Mingshui County, the city should give some to help the victims, but why do you ask our people to mortgage their land deeds to raise grain? Where did all the tax and grain we paid in the past go?”

   As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Wu Shancai in surprise.

  Yes, there is still grain in the grain depot. Those are all handed in by us, so why not take it out?

   Wu Shancai's expression didn't change, and Liu Yuanwai, who was standing beside him, stepped forward and scolded: "Ignorance child, step back quickly, how can you be presumptuous in front of the prefect, what are you doing? Why don't you drive people down quickly?"

"Liu Yuanwai is right, I am indeed ignorant, that's why I asked the prefect, the old sage Kong said, know what you know, don't know if you don't know, you have to ask if you don't know, otherwise you won't know if you don't learn, not to mention, The prefect loves the people like a son, and he didn't chase me, why would you, a member of your staff, overtake your place?" Mu Yangling looked at him sharply, glanced around, and said, "But I also have a few questions to ask Liu Yuanwai and other members. Fellow officers."

"Little girl," Wu Zhifu interrupted her with a smile, "if you have any questions, you can ask me in private, or don't waste the time of the big guys, you know that their family members are still waiting for them to bring their food back," said With a pitiful sigh, "I am incompetent, and I failed to let the people under my rule live and work in peace and contentment."

"Mr. Wu, what I'm asking is about everyone present. I believe they also want to know, why is it delaying? As for the incompetence that Lord Wu said, the little girl thinks that you have finally told the truth." Mu Yangling ignored his pale complexion and said, "The little girl heard that Qian Shu, the fugitive magistrate of Mingshui County, is the proud student of the adults. He was recommended by the adults when he was promoted to the county magistrate. In the midst of water and fire, I heard that he is now hiding in the mansion of the Lord, and I don’t know how Lord Wu plans to deal with it?”

"Furthermore, Mr. Wu said that some of the staff members are kind-hearted and willing to lend us the food they have saved at home, but I don't know how much the interest of the borrowed food is, and when we have to return it, the land deed has been pledged, and this land is still us. Is it yours, or is it yours? When will this land deed be returned, will we farm it in the spring, or will you be using the land? The prefect hasn’t made it clear yet, but we dare not borrow food.”

   said and smiled again, "But our city has a grain depot, so we may not need to deposit land deeds in exchange for grain."

   As soon as these words came out, everyone took the land deed and begged: "My lord, the family really can't survive, so please open the treasury for disaster relief."

   "That's right, Mingshui County was breached, and there is no need for food, but Fucheng and other counties have been defended, so adults can't let us live or die."

Wu Shancai said loudly: "Folks, this official knows that everyone is having a hard time, but the food in this grain depot is to deal with natural disasters. There is no court decree, and this official dare not open it. The official immediately wrote a letter requesting the opening of the grain depot, what do you think?"

With Mu Yangling at the beginning, there was no need for her to remind her later, and several old people stood up and asked: "Sir, before the title deed, please ask the adults and a few masters to answer the little girl's question just now, we also want to know. The interest of several masters, this land has been mortgaged, is it already owned by you masters, or is it still ours? Does this grain have to be paid back for the next autumn harvest, or can it be given a grace period for a few years? The adults also know that we poor people People rely on the sky to eat, and next year they don’t know if the gods are willing to honor them. If they want to pay back the first year, it’s difficult! This place is our lifeblood, and adults and gentlemen should make it clear to us.”

The faces of the squires standing behind Wu Shancai sank. He Yuanwai snorted coldly: "We kindly borrowed your food to keep you alive, but you forced us to ask us." Borrow it or not," he said, clasping his fists at Wu Shancai, and said, "Master Wu, we are willing to lend them food for your sake, they don't appreciate it, and we don't need to be offensive here, come. People, raise the table and let's go."

The other staff members looked at each other and asked the servants to pack up the tables and chairs to leave. Everyone couldn't help but panic, for fear that they would have no food to eat when they left. Knowing that they have been hungry for a long time, they can starve again. But the parents, wife and children at home can no longer be hungry.

"My lord, our question is not to make things difficult for others. Why are adults and gentlemen unwilling to answer? Or is it really like it was said outside, that the adults colluded with a few gentlemen to calculate our land deed?" A strong man stood apart from everyone Come out and drink.

   Wu Shancai pointed at them with a trembling finger, "Tricksters, pickpockets, a group of pickpockets, this official is all for you, you are so slanderous and insulting to this official, come here, arrest them for me, arrest them."

Mu Yangling laughed and said, "Your Excellency is so confused, do you not know the law that a nine-year-old child knows? Emperor Sejong once made a law that officials are not allowed to punish the people with their speeches. We are just asking you a few words, Not only did the lord not answer, why did he blame us instead? Does the lord not want to answer, or can't answer?"

"That's right, I can even scold the emperor, can't I scold you as a prefect?" An old woman walked out on crutches and said, "These gentlemen don't need to scare us, tens of thousands of people in one state, three counties and nine townships have been affected. Could it be that the prefect still wants to starve us to death?"

"Don't mention other things, the lord only said whether there is any food in the food bank. Although we haven't read the book, we know that if we are in a hurry, we have no land and no fields. Although we have a lot of strength, we don't want to be slaves. , I also paid a lot of taxes and grains in previous years, you just said that you can't open a warehouse." A strong man asked Wu Shancai aggressively.

   As soon as these words came out, everyone was agitated, and whoever was willing to take the land deed without spending money on food for nothing, they all gathered around and asked the prefect of Wu to give an explanation.

  Wu Shan was so arrogant that he had no choice but to deal with these gangsters. He couldn't help complaining about Emperor Sejong. When the law was enacted, he was too forgiving to these gangsters.

   Master Huang saw this and said in a low voice, "Sir, let's avoid the edge for a while, and let them be honest for another two days."

   Wu Shancai snorted coldly, stared at Mu Yangling fiercely, turned around and threw his sleeves and said, "Drive the person away, go and find out who the child is?"

  The author has something to say: I would like to inform everyone that tomorrow the book will be entered into V, and the editor will reverse the V, but you have seen the children's boots here, don't worry, it will be updated tomorrow, please support Yuzhu a lot!
