Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Chapter 67
The next day dawned.

The sun rises from the east.

Sunshine floods the land of Liaozhou, and people start their busy day.

Fang Yuan walked out from the Governor's Mansion, followed by the Justice of the Governor's Mansion and dozens of state officials.

As soon as he left the door, he saw Du Miaoyan in women's clothing coming, surprisingly, she was with Wang Yushi.

"Fang Zhouzun has found the arsonist?"

Du Miaoyan asked curiously.

The Governor's Mansion was on fire last night, and many people knew about it.

She knew about it before Fang Yuan arrived, but unfortunately she didn't see the suspect.

It was inconvenient and inappropriate last night, so she didn't show up, so I came here to take a look this morning. By chance, I met Wang Shiyu looking for her on the way, so I came here together.

"I'm afraid it's not as simple as an arsonist."

"Miss Du, Miss Wang, I don't have time today, so I won't entertain you two."

Fang Yuan said indifferently.

Staggered with Du Miaoyan, and left with Justice.

Isn't it as simple as an arsonist?
Du Miaoyan frowned, and immediately thought that the matter was not simple.

It is definitely not an ordinary person who dared to set fire to the governor's mansion, and there must be forces behind it.

Looking at the back of Fang Yuan and others leaving, Du Miaoyan pondered for a moment, then quickly followed.

"Du Miaoyan, wait for me."

Wang Yushi yelled and followed quickly.

Fang Yuan rode in the special chariot for the governor, and the state officials and others followed on foot.

More than half an hour later, Fang Yuan and others appeared at the entrance of Sanjia Village in Liaoshan County.

As soon as he appeared, he was seen by an elderly villager sitting idle at the entrance of the village.

"Oh my god, is that the governor's carriage?!"

The old man exclaimed.

When he was young, he had seen the carriage that the governor rode, so he guessed it was Fang Yuan.

"Hi old man, where is the field in your village?"

Fang Yuan squatted down and asked politely.

"Over there."

The old man did not come to his senses.

Subconsciously pointing in the direction of the fields in the village.

"Thank you old man."

Fang Yuan got up.

Go in that direction.

Team leader Zheng Jiu walked in the front, opening the way for Fang Yuan.

Du Miaoyan's carriage also arrived, and Wang Shiyu and Wang Shiyu followed after getting off the carriage.

"Master Inspector is here, Lord Inspector is here"

The old man finally came to his senses.

He stood up tremblingly, and staggered back to the village.

Not long after, the villagers of Sanjia Village knew that Fang Yuan had come to their village and even went to the farmland.

"hurry up!"

"Haven't you eaten yet?"

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

Fang Yuan hasn't arrived yet.

I heard someone scolding.

During the period, it was accompanied by the sound of a long whip.

After Fang Yuan saw it, he was so angry that he almost smoked.

Lin Yangbo was leaning on a stool with his legs crossed, eating melon seeds, and there was something like a parasol above his head to block the sun.

Not far from him, there were four teams, two of which were connected end to end, filled the water far downstream, and then carried it to the top to pour the water down.

During the period, if there is a slight negligence, they will be beaten and reprimanded by the yamen guards on both sides.

At this moment, a young man covered in scars couldn't bear it and fell to the ground.

It was the dog who was going to sue last night. After being beaten up last night, he specially called him to work today.

He was overwhelmed because of physical injuries.

"Dog, who told you to stop?!"

The yamen servant who was closest to Gouzi's eyes turned cold, and he raised his whip and was about to whip it off.

If this whip is taken down, the dog who was seriously injured may not be able to survive this day.

A Lei, who was the closest Gouzi, let out an angry roar, and threw himself at Gouzi, trying to block the whip for him.

"stop!"

Fang Yuan shouted angrily.

The sound was like thunder on the ground.

In an instant, everyone looked this way.

Lin Yangbo who was eating melon seeds also looked at Fang Yuan.

The air seemed to freeze, everyone was shocked by Fang Yuan's arrival.

But at the same time, Ah Lei still took a whip, and the screams brought everyone back to reality.

"Master Inspector?"

The village chief looked at Fang Yuan and said tremblingly.

He has seen Fang Yuan, last time when the people of various counties were making trouble at the gate of the Governor's Mansion, he saw it from a distance.

Seeing Fang Yuan again now, he is not sure whether Fang Yuan is in collusion with the county magistrate, but he couldn't help being excited in his heart, as if he saw someone upholding justice.

"The officer told you to stop, didn't you hear?"

Fang Yuan was angry.

With cold eyes, he walked towards the yamen servant.

"Meet the governor!"

Lin Yangbo reacted.

Throwing away the melon seeds in his hand, he quickly got up and saluted.

However, Fang Yuan ignored him, directly missed him, and continued to walk towards the yamen servant.

"Greetings, Lord Inspector!"

The yamen servant noticed Fang Yuan's cold eyes.

I felt as if I was being watched by a tiger, and I was so nervous that I even forgot to breathe.

"Your Majesty!"

Fang Yuan drank in a low voice.

But in the ears of the yamen servants, it was like thunder.

His legs knelt down uncontrollably, fear permeated his whole body, and his body was shaking.

Without Fang Yuan's instructions, Zheng Jiu and others have already passed Fang Yuan, arrested him, and removed his saber.

"Who allowed you to make things difficult for the people like this?!"

Fang Yuan was furious.

But the heart is actually quite calm.

Just very angry, stimulated by the scene in front of him.

Just a yamen servant, not a good grade, but treats human life like nothing.

If this whip hit the injured young man, the other party would probably die.

"me."

The yamen servant turned pale and was speechless.

"Drag it on, give him ten lashes, remove him from his position, and send him to state prison pending trial!"

Fang Yuan said coldly.

"Yes!"

Zheng Jiu immediately agreed.

The state officials who were holding him dragged him down.

At this time, the yamen servant thought of begging for mercy and calling for help.

"The County Lord save me, the County Lord save me"

However, Lin Yangbo stood aside with a sullen face, without saying a word.

Soon, there was the sound of whipping, followed by heart-piercing screams.

"Greetings, Lord Inspector!"

The villagers of Sanjia Village thought of meeting Fang Yuan.

A Lei and Gouzi who were closest to Fang Yuan didn't get up, they just knelt beside Fang Yuan and saluted.

Although kneeling was not popular in the Tang Dynasty, it was not without it. It was normal to kneel to the elders or the emperor.

"Get up, get up."

"Sorry, I'm late, sir."

Fang Yuan choked up and helped Ah Lei and Gou Zi up.

"Master Inspector, County Magistrate Lin said that you let him treat us like this, don't you think so?"

Gouzi struggled to get up with Aleigh's support.

His nose was bruised and his face was swollen, he stared into Fang Yuan's eyes, looking desperate.

He was almost beaten to death last night, and today he was forced to come to work again. He didn't want to be treated like this, and would rather die than surrender.

"no!"

"There are traitors making trouble, I will put things right for you!"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Turning to look at Lin Yangbo.

Gouzi and others also followed Fang Yuan to look at Lin Yangbo.

At this moment, more than 1000 people in Sanjia Village looked at Lin Yangbo, as if they wanted to eat him.

At this time, the villagers of Sanjia Village who already knew Fang Yuan went to the farm came here one after another, wanting to see what happened.

In this day and age, it is not easy to see the county magistrate, and it is even more likely that the governor will never see him once in his life.

"Lin Yangbo, what do you want to say?"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

"What did the governor say?"

"The subordinate officials are all following your orders."

Lin Yangbo saluted Fang Yuan, and said with aggrieved face.

"In that case, let's go back to the Governor's Mansion with me."

Fang Yuan's eyes turned cold, he said in a deep voice.

"Follow the governor's orders."

Lin Yangbo saluted again, seeming very obedient.

At this time, the people of Sanjia Village had already arrived.

But at this time, there were discordant voices among the people who had just arrived.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't block the way of the supervisory censor Liancha."

When Fang Yuan heard it, his brows frowned into Sichuan characters.

The supervisory censor belongs to the Yushitai Yushi Academy, and is only an official of the eighth rank.

However, they have the power to supervise hundreds of officials, inspect prefectures and counties, correct punishments and prisons, and clean up court rituals.

Although the official rank is not high, but the energy is huge, the central officials or local officials are quite afraid of him, it is known as the custom of spring harvest, autumn travel and clean inspection.

It can be said that the supervisory censor visited the states and counties with the imperial order.
