Traveling through the barren years, I have a system and am not afraid of anything

Chapter 853 Current Affairs News

Da Zhuang's movements were as fierce as a tiger's. Each of the servants had one leg broken, and the mayor had three legs broken.

"Da Zhuang is too gentle, if I just break my limbs!"

Dahu curled his lips with disdain.

"Then why don't you come?"

Dahu is very talkative and his kung fu is not bad, but he is too lazy to fight with others. He says he is tired~

"You are in trouble, his brother-in-law is the county magistrate!"

The scholar's face turned pale.

"Weren't you afraid just now?"

Tian Tian looked curious, this scholar was a bit interesting.

"I'm not afraid. I want to go to Beijing to complain, but what will you do?"

Although these outsiders look a bit like bandits, they are much better than the mayor.

"We're not afraid. That bullshit county magistrate has already done it!"

The imperial master's tone was a little cold, and Tian Tian almost forgot that he was the county magistrate's killer!

"Mayor? The house was searched and the family members were temporarily detained. Now that we've caught up, let's have a good trial!"

Anyway, Tian Tian couldn't go back for a while, so Tian Tian decided to work on a case in a down-to-earth manner.

"We didn't bring any followers either, it's really troublesome!"

Dahu's brows furrowed. He finally got rid of his armor and returned to the field. He didn't expect that he would still have to be interrogated.

"Uncle Wang is responsible for the trial of Linjiang County Magistrate's case. The trial will be held in Qingfeng Town, and a group of prisoners will be escorted by Yama Luodian!"

Tian Tian lit the Yama Ling and waited quietly for the people in the Yama Hall.

"Are we just going to wait?"

The Imperial Master was a little impatient, and the fat man's wails made his ears hurt.

"Go to the yamen in the town, and the scholar will lead the way!"

Tian Tian looked at the heads emerging from the shops around her and couldn't help but shake her head. She didn't know whether these people were afraid of being oppressed or had forgotten about it. If they wanted to report the illegal behavior of officials, they could just find a post station and write a letter to the court.

The imperial court has a department specifically responsible for handling such cases from the private sector, which saves time, effort, and safety. There is no need to confront local officials head-on.

"Dear neighbors, tomorrow at noon at the Yamen of Qingfeng Town, there will be a public hearing of the Linjiang County Magistrate and this pig head ~ Mayor, if you have any grievances, just go and complain about them!"

Tian Tian waved his hand, and Dahu and others dragged away the mayor who looked like a dead pig.

"Who are you?"

The scholar is a little timid. The bandits in the mountains are not qualified to judge the county magistrate, right?

"Young man, don't ask, don't pry, just lead the way!"

Dahu put his arm on the scholar's shoulder. He would never be able to walk well by himself.

"Uncle Dahu, please settle down your family and find an inn to stay in first!"

There is no Tian family property in Xiaoqingfeng Town, so they can only stay in an inn.

"How expensive is it to stay in an inn? You stay with me!"

The scholar looked proud. These people helped him deal with the mayor, so he had to show his loyalty as a landlord.

"Where do you live? There are many of us!"

Dahu has not counted how many people there are in his group, but there must be more than thirty or forty.

"My family lives in the Chenghuang Temple outside the town. How many people can live there!"

They all came from poor backgrounds, so the scholar thought they wouldn't mind.

"Ahem, forget it, we appreciate your kindness!"

Master Ba couldn't help coughing. The scholar looked upright, but his mind seemed a little stupid.

"In the past, I would have had enough money to entertain you, but my home was robbed and my house was occupied, even my old mother~"

The scholar also had a story to tell. As he walked, he kept talking about his experiences. The person who told the story became more and more angry, but the people who listened looked sad.

Although the scholar's family was in decline, his ancestors were also officials and left behind a large house and dozens of acres of fertile land. Although in his generation, only a house and a few acres of fertile land were left, the mother and son had no problem living.

"After my father passed away, we, mother and son, depended on each other. Three years ago, I was ordered by my mother to take the imperial examination. But as soon as I arrived in Linjiang County, I heard that something had happened at home. When I came back, my old mother was dead and the ancestral home at home was also destroyed. That pig head took over!"

He has been dealing with the mayor for the past three years, but the mayor plays with him like a monkey. He always looks for opportunities to fight with the mayor, but he is always beaten to death.

"Although you are a bit stupid, you have a strong life. You have been beaten so many times and you are still alive. It must be your parents and ancestors who are protecting you in the underworld!"

The Imperial Master sighed, this guy seemed to be able to withstand a beating even though he looked so weak.

“If it weren’t for the help from my neighbors, I might not be alive today!”

Scholars can still support themselves by copying books and writing letters for others.

"No, why don't you write a report letter and send it to the inn?"

The post station is now an institution directly under the imperial court, and local forces cannot get involved at all.

"Uh~"

The scholar couldn't help but blush.

"Maybe I'm still not used to it~"

At this moment, the scholar was very upset. Why didn't he think of it?

"It has been five years since the New Deal was implemented, and your place is not completely closed off. How come you don't even know this method?"

The matter of this report letter was planned and arranged by Master Ba. He did not expect that someone would ignore such a convenient method.

"The inn was set up in Linjiangxian. Xiaosheng did not expect it at the moment. As for ordinary people, they don't believe it. They don't believe that the court will take care of it and that the officials will protect each other~"

"That was in the past. Today's Daqi is different from before. Didn't you notice? Don't you read the current political newspapers?"

Even Zhu Zhu, who had never been very talkative, couldn't bear to listen.

Daqi has very strict requirements for scholars. There is a current affairs newspaper specially provided for scholars to read, which needs to be assessed!

"Our county doesn't have one? What is the current affairs newspaper?"

The scholar looked confused. Not only did he not know, but all the scholars in his county seemed to know.

"Is there something going on at the inn?"

Dahu quietly glanced at the black-faced Master Ba.

"There will be no problems at the inn. The current affairs reports in the inn are sent to the yamen, which distribute them to each school. The assessment is also conducted by the county magistrate himself!"

"If the county magistrate is interested, the current affairs paper will indeed not reach them!"

The problem lies with the Linjiang County Magistrate. I don't know if there is anyone behind him. We will know everything after the trial.

"Why can't I understand what you are saying?"

The scholar was confused. His knowledge was among the best in Linjiang County. If it hadn't been for the accident three years ago, he would have had hope.

"The Current Affairs Newspaper is a newspaper printed by the imperial court. The newspaper publishes the current affairs of Daqi and some local case information. I think I brought a copy. Dahu will go get it!"

Master Ba suddenly felt sympathy for the scholar. The current affairs newspaper had been distributed for several years, but he had never heard of it. If he went to take the imperial examination and did not have the usual current affairs assessment results, he would not even be able to enter the Gongyuan.

"I go?"

Dahu looked sad.

"Shouyi goes for a run, and the bullock cart will follow."

Da Zhuang quickly asked his son to find him. With Da Hu's temper, don't even expect him to run away.

"Big Tiger, oh, forget it~"

Master Ba didn't want to criticize Dahu too harshly. This guy was so lazy that his limbs were almost degenerated.
