Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

Pfft!

Zhang Song's knees softened and he knelt on the ground, staring directly at the four strong men.

Although he didn't know the four of them, Qian Niuwei's name was well known to his ears.

These people wear flying bear suits, red coats, and tiger gold boots. They usually stay in the palace to protect the safety of the emperor and the queen mother.

However, he didn't understand why the Queen Mother would send such a master to escort a small local official?

Is there anything special about Fan Xin?

Just when there was a huge wave in Zhang Song's heart, Fan Xin came to him with his hands behind his back: "Zhang Song, your identity has been confirmed, what else can you say this time?"

Hearing these words, Zhang Song trembled all over and forced a smile.

"Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. No one in Wushui County knows about the dignified Fan Qingtian. How can I dare to doubt you?"

"Misunderstanding?" Fan Xin sneered and circled around Zhang Song.

"I was merciful by not killing you last time, but you didn't want to repent."

"This time, I am taking advantage of my absence to intensify my revenge on the people."

"With a forced tax collection of 30%, aren't you afraid that the government will force the people to rebel?"

Following Fan Xin's loud shout, Zhang Song's eyelids trembled and he pretended to be calm.

"So what, if I commit a major crime, it will be decided by Dali Temple. I'm afraid Fan Changshi won't be able to punish Zhang."

Even if things got to this point, he would risk everything. Anyway, his godfather would help him in the end. At worst, he could just change his position as an official.

Seeing that Zhang Song was still so arrogant after committing a crime, Fan Xin nodded.

"These words might have saved your life before, but now it's too late!"

"What are you going to do?" Sensing the murderous intent in Fan Xin's words, Zhang Song took a step back and said in panic.

The corner of Fan Xin's mouth curled up: "Don't you like hanging people on flagpoles? Then I will let you taste what it feels like to be hung."

"Come on, hang County Magistrate Zhang on the flagpole and expose it to the sun for seven days. No one is allowed to put it down without my order!"

"I will obey your orders!" Zhang Huan and the others clasped their fists and stretched out their hands to grab Zhang Song.

At this time, a chuckle came from the crowd.

"Fan Changshi is so brave. He dared to torture a county official without permission from Governor Li. Do you really think that the laws of the Tang Dynasty are just for show?"

The crowd parted, and a fat man dressed as a butler walked up to the county government office, with a dozen boys following behind him.

Seeing the person coming, Zhang Song showed ecstasy on his face: "Butler Wu, you're just in time, please help me out quickly."

Butler Wu glanced at him and said calmly: "Don't worry, I am here, no one can touch your hair." After speaking, he looked at Fan Xin.

"Fan Changshi, Zhang Song is from our Wu family, how about we expose this matter for the sake of the minister?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present changed their expressions, especially Zhang Huan and the others. They had been in the palace for a long time and naturally knew about the relationship between Wu Sansi and the Queen Mother.

"Fan Changshi, General Yimo thinks it's better to forget it. Wu Sansi's influence is spread throughout the court, and many important ministers and generals are related to him. There is no need for you to offend him because of a few common people."

"Yes, Wu Shangshu is the nephew of the current Queen Mother. If you anger him, it will be detrimental to your future."

"Fan Qingtian, why don't you let Zhang Song go? We'll be fine." The people persuaded him.

They care more about Fan Xin's future than punishing Zhang Song.

Seeing so many people being intimidated by the name of Shangshu Mansion, Butler Wu showed a proud smile on his face.

He believed that Fan Xin was a smart man and should know what was important and what was important.

However, before his smile lasted long, he saw Fan Xin coming to the front under everyone's gaze and said calmly.

"It has always been a serious crime for the government to force the people to rebel and to impose exorbitant taxes. Today, let alone your minister, even if the king of heaven comes, I will never take this guy away!

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Xin pulled out the golden dragon sword with a clang and said with murderous intent.

"Where is the Qianniu Guard!"

"The general is here!"

Zhang Huan and the other two took a step forward and clasped their fists in unison.

"I will hang Zhang Song on the flagpole and expose him to the sun for seven days! Anyone who dares to stop him will be killed!"

"Yes!

As soon as the golden dragon sword came out, it was like the Queen Mother was coming in person. Zhang Huan and the others did not dare to hesitate at all. They grabbed Zhang Song and hung him on the flagpole.

Due to his quick approach, by the time everyone reacted, Zhang Song had already been hoisted up the flagpole.

Looking at Zhang Song floating back and forth in the air, the entire scene was silent.

No one expected Fan Xin to be so courageous as to hang Zhang Song on the flagpole in front of the Wu family.

This is because you don’t take Wu Shangshu seriously!

Butler Wu took a deep look at Zhang Song, who was unconscious, and smiled coldly at Fan Xin.

"Fan Changshi is worthy of being a person who dares to rebuke the court. Today I have opened my eyes."

"I hope you can be so tough when you meet my martial arts minister!"

"Hmph, let's go!"

After the people from Shangshu Mansion left, Fan Xin faced everyone and said calmly.

"From now on, all taxes imposed by Zhang Song will be cancelled! You don't have to pay them separately!"

The people at the scene were silent for a while, but suddenly they all bowed and their voices rumbled.

"Thank you Fan Changshi for seeking justice for us!"

Signaling everyone to disperse, Zhou Xian Cheng stepped forward with a guilty look on his face.

"The lower official failed to stop Zhang Song from committing violence. I hope Fan Changshi will forgive me."

"Forget it, it's not easy for you to stand up and say something fair. It's no longer easy for you to stand up and say something fair."

After giving him a few words of encouragement, Fan Xin changed the subject and said, "You will find some reliable people later, take a pickaxe and go out to the city with me."

"Leaving the city?" Zhou Xian Cheng was startled, wondering why Fan Xin asked him to bring the pickaxe.

Fan Xin nodded: "Yes, I will be able to recruit dozens more large vehicles. I will be useful."

According to Li Chong, he buried the land deeds and gold and silver jewelry from various counties in Bozhou under the ruined temples in the Aishan area.

As long as you find the ruined temple, you can find the buried land deed.

Seeing Fan Xin's serious expression, Zhouxian Cheng did not ask further questions. He quickly found more than thirty strong young men and recruited dozens of carriages.

A group of people took advantage of the night to leave Wushui County and headed for Aishan.

It wasn't until the middle of the moon that I found a ruined temple halfway up the mountain.

There is a brand new tablet enshrined inside, with the three words Li Yunniang written on it.

"Fan Changshi, this is..."

"This is the tomb of Princess Langya Li Yuniang." Fan Xin sighed as he thought of the beautiful woman hanging on the flagpole.

"Okay, let's stop talking about digging. We must load it into the car and transport it away before dawn."

Most of these land deeds must be returned to the people who were usurped.

The rest, together with the gold, silver and jewelry, were the bargaining chips he used to exchange for the lives of Li's wife and children. He had to be careful to avoid being discovered.

The reason why Li Chong told him the location in the first place was in exchange for the lives of those innocent people.

After he got the land deed back, he naturally had to fulfill his promise.

Soon, someone dug out the first mouthful of the box, then the second mouthful, and the third mouthful...

It wasn't until the thirtieth big box was dug out that everyone stopped to rest.

"Tsk, tsk, I didn't expect that Prince Langya's family property is so rich, it can last for several lifetimes." Zhou Xiancheng said.

Fan Xin glanced at him and dusted off his hands.

"You lead a team of people to take these big boxes to the county prison and put people under strict guard. Wait until I come back from meeting with Governor Li tomorrow..."

Thanks to the friends who voted to read. I just finished the injection and finished writing a chapter on the subway. It’s a little too late. I’m sorry.
