Chapter 399 Li Chaosheng's Message
Lantian messenger?

Hearing these four words, Hong Chengchou, Lu Xiangsheng, and Sun Chuanting all frowned. Why did Li Chaosheng send someone here at this time?declare war?

Hong Chengchou looked at the two people beside him and said, "Please."

The messenger under him should immediately turn around and invite the messenger from Lantian. At this time, the messenger from Lantian is here. Whether it is a declaration of war or something else, the three of them have to meet. It would be even more inappropriate if they don't see each other. Are you ready to go to war with Lantian?

Seeing this matter, there may be room for change. By the way, looking at Lan Tian's attitude, they can do something and make some countermeasures.

The messenger ran down, and the three of them sat back in their seats, and soon one of them walked into the big tent.

The messenger who came to see Hong Chengchou and the others was very young, he looked less than 20 years old. He was a fresh graduate from Lantian College. The reason why he was sent to see Hong Chengchou was because his location was the closest to Hong Chengchou's camp, and he could get there in half a day by riding a horse.

But Bai Shoumin was in a hurry, he had to tell Hong Chengchou the attitude of the county magistrate before the emperor's messenger arrived in Lantian, let Hong Chengchou and the others know the attitude of the magistrate, and give them time to react.

"Lantian Yanchuan Tugang Chief looked around and saw three adults."

The visitor saluted the three of them with fists in their hands, Sun Chuanting frowned slightly, "Yanchuan Dugang, this has already reached the south of Yulin, so the expansion of Lantian has already occupied the central Shaanxi area, and even arranged for the head of the village?"This Li Chaosheng moved really fast.

Sun Chuanting thought, Hong Chengchou also narrowed his eyes, the expansion speed of Lantian is obviously much faster than before, which shows that Li Chaosheng's patience has gradually worn down, and now he can't wait to expand the territory, if His Majesty really If Li Chaosheng is given a chance, Li Chaosheng will not be polite. In a blink of an eye, Shaanxi will be swallowed up by Li Chaosheng, and it will even spread to Shanxi, Henan and other places. Your Majesty, you really shouldn’t have acted like this this time. It’s not good. In the blink of an eye, Daming has cultivated a monstrous bandit.

Hong Chengchou thought, looked at Sun Chuanting, who was silent, and Lu Xiangsheng, who wanted to talk, and said slowly: "Zhang Li has come a long way, it's hard work, sit down, show Zhang Lichang a seat, and bring a plate of wine and food."

After Zhang Wangke heard this, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up and he said: "Thank you, sir."

In Hong Chengchou's words, there is an obvious hint of goodwill in it. His name is Zhang Wangke Lichang. Zhang Wangke is the Lichang of Yanchuan Tugang in central Shaanxi. The land obtained was privately distributed by Li Chaosheng to Zhang Wangke.

This was not recognized by the imperial court, but Hong Chengchou admitted the identity of Zhang Wangke Lichang, which shows that Hong Chengchou has acquiesced that the land ownership of Yanchuan Tugang is Lantian.

If he didn't admit it, even if Zhang Wangke wasn't punished at this time, he wouldn't call Zhang Wangke the head of Zhang Li.

Zhang Wangke sat down, and the people below brought wine and food. The wine and food were very simple, a plate of pork, a plate of unknown vegetables, two white flour buns, and a pot of wine.

The meals of the three of Hong Chengchou are the same.

Zhang Wangke was busy helping the local area to resume production this morning, gathering refugees, heels were so busy that they didn't even eat a bite of food, and then received an urgent task from the county via telegraph, so Zhang Wangke Just got on the horse, galloped all the way, and didn't get off the horse until now, my stomach has long been pressed against my back.

At this time, seeing the food and wine, he was not polite, and he cupped his hands at Hong Chengchou and said: "You are welcome, so I ate steamed buns, pork, and green vegetables, and took a sip of wine when I choked. "

These students who graduated from Lantian College may have been contaminated with Li Chaosheng's barbaric and free atmosphere, and they are not paying attention to details. They care more about reality, how to lead the people to live a prosperous and healthy life.

Therefore, at this time, the three of them looked at the wolf-hungry young man below, and they couldn't help being a little surprised. They were still so calm in the face of Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng, who held military power in their hands. This is a character.

People who study stereotypes in the Imperial College can't do this. Maybe this is the reason why Lantian Academy has a large number of talents. They don't stick to small details and focus on facts.

Can Zhang Wang be selected from a group of graduates to serve as the head of a village in central Shaanxi, which has been ravaged by bandits and desolate, is a kind of reuse in itself.

You must know that the imperial court wants to reuse someone, and it will never send him to any particularly rich place. The rich place can live better, but it may still be a fat job for corrupt officials, so you can search for more oil and water.

But it is difficult for you to make political achievements. Everyone in this place can have enough to eat. After you came here, through unremitting efforts, the people here can occasionally eat meat.

How can this kind of political achievement compare to the fact that the people here can't eat enough to eat. If you come, they can eat enough to eat?

In fact, the difficulty of these two is similar, but the latter is very obvious, and the former is not so obvious, so generally want to promote someone, throw someone to the backcountry, this is reuse.

Because the starting point is low enough, as long as you work hard, you can see improvement.

Especially in Lantian, since most of the governing places are passionate students, they are still very resistant to corruption, so the overall atmosphere is relatively clean. In addition, there is a secret spy department under Li Chaosheng and a public reporting system. , so that corruption can be effectively supervised, so most of the officials in Lantian are clean.

Among them, the common people’s reporting system is the most effective method. As long as the common people feel that they have been treated unfairly or wronged, or have evidence of local officials corrupting the law, they can report to the supervisory yamen under the county secret spy department. , As long as you report to the Secret Service, it will conduct a verification. If there is a problem in the verification, you can directly report it to the official for arrest.

If there is corruption in the supervisory yamen and collusion with local officials, the people can continue to petition. The county doesn't care whether they go to the mansion, or the mansion doesn't care about Lantian. On that day, Li Chaosheng will sit in the hall in person for a day.

If you are really wronged, no one will care about you, and if the officials protect each other, you can come to the county lord to file a complaint.

Because if Li Chaosheng cheated for personal gain, Lantian County would be completely rotten.

The purpose of Li Chaosheng's doing this is that you have really been wronged as Dou E, and he wants you to find a reasonable place. This is Lantian, a reasonable place.

But so far, no one has leapfrogged to sue Li Chaosheng, and Li Chaosheng has only taken two cases in these years.

And it's almost all farce.

The first case was a dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. An evil mother-in-law opened herself with a teacup and sent her daughter-in-law to disobey.

Disobedience is a serious crime in this era. The younger generation disobeys the elders, if it is light, it will be hit with a board, and if it is serious, it can be killed with a stick.

As soon as this person came to court, Li Chaosheng knew that the possibility of disobedience in this case was very small. The weak woman came up, the weak woman begged bitterly, but the middle-aged shrew cursed.

Just look at this scene, the shrew said that it is very unlikely that his daughter-in-law opened herself with a teacup, because of the physical comparison, as long as the daughter-in-law is not stupid, it means that the possibility of using force is too small.

If you say that this little thin woman poisoned the shrew Li Chaosheng with arsenic poison, you can still believe it, but if you say that she directly opened the vicious mother-in-law with a tea bowl, which is obviously invincible, this is not in line with common sense.

Looking at the toughness of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Li Chaosheng understood the general idea in an instant, and he knew what was going on when he asked again. It was obvious that the mother-in-law disliked her daughter-in-law and deliberately made things difficult.

This kind of thing is really difficult to deal with. After all, it is difficult for an upright official to manage housework, and there are many people watching the excitement nearby. When seeing this pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, some people will talk about how tricky the mother-in-law is usually and how she bullies the daughter-in-law, but According to the moral concept of this era, the elders send the younger generation to disobey, and the younger generation is also disobedient if they are not disobedient.

The wicked mother-in-law knelt and kowtowed in the courtroom to ask Li Chaosheng to beat her daughter-in-law, and she took off her trousers and beat a woman. In this day and age, she took off her trousers and beat a woman. It was a real beating.

Li Chaosheng knew that this matter was tricky, so after thinking about it, he gave the verdict directly: the daughter-in-law was disobedient because the son was not strict in discipline, he should be the first to beat the son, and asked the wicked mother-in-law to die or live.

The evil mother-in-law was dumbfounded when she heard this, and begged Li Chaosheng to show mercy. How could Li Chaosheng be swayed by an old woman, who directly asked her son to be dragged down to beat him for [-] boards? His subordinates were merciful, and the young daughter-in-law also begged to forgive her man.

At this moment, Li Chaosheng looked at the evil mother-in-law and said: From now on, no matter who is disobedient in your family, as long as your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law make trouble, you will beat your son.

Afterwards, Guzi asked Li Chaosheng if his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had conflicts, and beating his son was a bit arbitrary. Li Chaosheng replied: You are a big man, and even your mother and daughter-in-law can't even get along, so you should be beaten.

The second case was purely looking for trouble. It was a trivial matter, but it was just an ordinary neighborhood dispute, so I went to Li Chaosheng to file a complaint. Is it a one-foot-to-one thing?Shouldn't the chief be in charge of this matter?

Li Chaosheng wanted to punish the local chief at that time, but he thought it wrong. He couldn't punish the chief for this matter. If he punished the chief, the chief would definitely emphasize that the people should not go to the county magistrate to complain without reason, and gradually this matter became more and more serious. Maybe the taste has changed, and it has become that the local chief prevents the people from suing.

Then why did Li Chaosheng set up this common people to report?
So the village chief can't punish him, he won't punish the village chief, but he can't take care of all such cases in the future. If he does, Li Chaosheng doesn't have to do anything else, he can be the village director.

And it is also possible that this kind of thing will delay the things of the people who have really been wronged.

After thinking about it, Li Chaosheng thought of the dross of the feudal society, which is very popular in this era, suing the government with the people, no matter whether it is justified or not, eat a hundred killing sticks first.

You can still see it while watching TV, but you have to roll the nail board first, kneel on the nails and other terrible criminal laws to sue the imperial court
And Li Chaosheng can't persecute the common people like the feudal society, but Li Chaosheng can improve on this basis.

Therefore, Li Chaosheng later stipulated that if a complaint is made for a trivial matter or a false accusation of slander, after finding out the reason, he should be beaten with [-] sticks as punishment. If the circumstances are serious, he may also face imprisonment.

With this regulation in place, no more troublemakers came to the county government to complain.

Hong Chengchou waited to see that he could eat and drink enough, so he asked, "What's the matter that your county lord asked you to come to see us?"

After hearing this, Zhang Wang put down the jug in his hand and said, "Three adults, my lords have something they want me to bring to the three lords."

"Oh, what are you talking about?"

After hearing Zhang Wangke's words, the three of them all looked upright, looked at each other, and asked in unison.

At this time, Zhang Wangke clasped his fists to show his respect for Li Chaosheng and said: "My county lord said: I live and work in peace and contentment in Lantian County. Confused, he wants to assign Lantian to Zhang Xianzhong, a traitor, he is heartbroken, he doesn't understand what the court thinks of Lantian, and what does the court think of the people of Lantian?"

"That's why my county magistrate swears that he will never let Zhang Xianzhong come to harm the people of Lantian, because this is the home of my Lantian people. If anyone tries to get the Lantian family's idea, we Lantian people will fight him desperately. Now the county magistrate has sent me to find out. The three adults will say that the imperial edict has arrived in Shanxi, if the angel arrives in Lantian and reads the imperial edict, the county majesty will probably resist the edict and will inevitably become an enemy of the imperial court and the three lords."

"My county lord can't bear it. Let me tell the three adults. If the imperial decree arrives, when the soldiers meet, please don't blame him. This is the imperial court forcing him. Of course, if your majesty changes his mind, the imperial edict will not If so, then my county lord and the three adults are still good friends."

After Zhang Wangke said this, he saw that the faces of the three of them became weird, and he clasped his fists together and said, "Thank you, Mr. Hong, for your hospitality. I'll take the next word, so I'll leave first and take my leave."

After talking about looking around, he turned around and left. Only Hong Chengchou and three people were left in the room, and the three of them did not speak to each other. At this time, Sun Chuanting looked at Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng and asked knowingly, "What does Li Chaosheng mean by this move?"

Lu Xiangsheng didn't speak, Hong Chengchou narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm going to vote with you."

Lu Xiangsheng frowned and said, "What should I do? Lu will never do such a thing as intercepting an angel."

"Then you are willing to go to war with Lan Tian?"

Sun Chuanting asked, Lu Xiangsheng shut up and looked at Hong Chengchou, Hong Chengchou frowned slightly at this moment, pinching the wine glass, Sun Chuanting said at this time: "Can we not kill the angel, and prevent Li Chaosheng from receiving the imperial edict?"

"What do you mean?"

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Sun Chuanting, and Sun Chuanting said: "Have someone detain the angel, and release the angel after the matter is over, how about?"

Before Lu Xiangsheng heard the words, Hong Chengchou shouted, "No."
