"Sir, Daozhou City is ahead. I saw a lot of people at the official post in front of me. Flags were waving. It seemed that they were officials from Daozhou City coming to greet the master..."

The rolling carriage was driving on the official road. Zheng Ti, who was driving the carriage in front, opened the curtain in front of the carriage and said to Xia Pingan in the carriage.

"I know, just stop at the official post in front..." Xia Pingan, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at Zheng Ti and ordered.

Zheng Ti, who was driving the bus, nodded and continued driving.

Xia Ping'an looked at Han Yu's "On Criticism of Officials" in his hand with great interest.

This Han Yu's article is indeed excellent. Even if he wrote this article to scold himself, his "Lun on Officials" is also impeccably written. An "Lun on Officials" contains extensive quotations and quotations from the Book of Changes.

When he came to "Shangshu", Han Yu picked up his words, scolded himself again and again, and left himself speechless.

Seeing Xia Ping'an reading Han Yu's article, Xue Yue, who was also sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but said, "... then Han Yu wrote "On Criticism of Officials" to ridicule the teacher for taking the position of admonishing the doctor. This time

The traitor Pei Yanling framed Master Lu, and everyone in the court knew that Master Lu was unjust, but only the teacher dared to stand up and argue for Master Lu, and denounced the traitor. I don’t know where Han Yu’s face will go this time.

put?"

Xia Ping'an smiled and said, "Xue Yue, you are too straightforward and have a bad temper. No one can be faultless. I have held the position of admonishment doctor for many years and have been silent. Han Yu couldn't stand it. He wrote articles and scolded me.

The sentences are normal, Han Yu’s article is excellent, you should study more!”

"Why didn't the teacher refute Han Yu in the first place?"

"It's just a matter of doing something and not doing anything. You have to remember that an admonishment officer is like a sword. If you encounter someone who doesn't like to sharpen the sword, the sword will be used more often and the sword will not be sharp. How can you cut through the thorns at the critical moment? I

In the position of an admonishing doctor, risking one's life to remonstrate this time is enough to prevent His Majesty from doing stupid things, preventing Lu Zhi and others from being harmed by Pei Yanling, and preventing His Majesty from becoming a foolish king who kills loyal ministers in vain!"

"Teacher, who is the sword sharpener?"

"Taizong liked to sharpen his sword, and Wei Zheng showed his sharpness!" Xia Ping'an said.

Xue Yue seemed to have realized something, but still looked angry, "Everyone in the world knows that Pei Yanling is a treacherous woman who is flattering, incompetent, and good at dealing with people. Back then, the treacherous Prime Minister was serving as an envoy, but he only made some books and accounts to fool His Majesty.

, the imperial treasury has not increased at all, but your majesty thinks that he has good financial management skills and has been promoted and promoted one after another. The traitor is the one who deserves to be killed and demoted. This time, the teacher is desperately writing a letter to impeach the traitor. Isn’t it that your majesty still doesn’t wake up..."

Xia Ping'an looked at Xue Yue, but he was thinking in his heart that Xue Yue's temper was really upright. If he hadn't kept him by his side to teach him all the time, Xue Yue would have been convicted of his speech and be demoted to the countryside.

I don’t know if I can change Xue Yue’s fate and the divine power gained after the successful fusion of the world beads will increase.

In addition to the student Xue Yue, Zheng Ti, who is currently driving as his servant, according to historical records, has actually died long ago.

What happened to Zheng Ti should be the most frustrating thing in Yangcheng's life. Zheng Ti was originally a loyal and honest man. Because he had no money to bury his father, Yangcheng still lived in seclusion in Xiayang Mountain. After helping him bury his father, Zheng Ti was willing to do so.

He was a slave and a servant, serving the people around Yangcheng, but Yangcheng was loyal and unwilling to repay his kindness. He only wanted to treat Zheng Ti as a student. He also taught Zheng Ti to read and learn "The Book of Songs" and "Guofeng". But that Zheng Ti

Ti is indeed not the material for reading. In the end, I felt that I was sorry for Yangcheng's teachings and could not study further. I was so ashamed that I actually hanged myself.

The death of Zheng Ti was also the most annoying thing in Yangcheng Jun's life. When Zheng Ti died, Yangcheng Jun mourned for him. He also took off his clothes to plead guilty in Zheng Ti's mourning hall, and asked his servants to whip himself with thorns to atone for his sins.

After fusing this world bead this time, Xia Pingan will naturally not let the tragedy of the past happen again. After helping Zheng Ti bury his father in Xia Yang Mountain, Xia Pingan accepted Zheng Ti and asked Zheng Ti to follow him as a servant.

Not studying, but only doing things, Zheng Ti really tried his best and is still very active until now.

There are actually two most difficult parts of integrating this world pearl. One is being recruited by the imperial court in Yangcheng to become an admonishment official, and knowing when to risk one's life to speak out and get the chance to be demoted to Daozhou. The second is being demoted.

After arriving in Daozhou, I knew what to do to relieve the sufferings of the people in Daozhou.

The Qianhuan boy summoned by this world bead should be related to the dwarfs that the people of Daozhou paid tribute to the court...

…

Soon, the carriage arrived at the official post in front. More than a hundred people, including Daozhou City officials and flag bearers, gathered here to welcome the arrival of the new governor.

When Xia Pingan got off the carriage, he took out his seal and showed his identity. The officials in Daozhou City met Xia Pingan and cleared the way for him to return to Daozhou City.

Sitting in the carriage, Xia Ping'an was already thinking about where to start after arriving in Daozhou. The matter of stopping tribute was not a trivial matter and involved the interests of all parties. His officials and his superiors' observers may all be involved. From the Sui Dynasty

Since Emperor Yangdi, Daozhou has been paying tribute to dwarfs. All the dwarf figurines of the Tang Dynasty came from Daozhou. In the words of later generations, dwarfs have formed an industrial chain in Daozhou. Many people have been promoted and made rich by paying tribute to dwarfs.

I came here this time to stop many people from getting promoted and making money.

The officials and honor guards who greeted Xia Ping'an walked on the official road with a majestic manner that attracted the attention of the people along the way.

In less than an hour, Xia Pingan's carriage followed the officials and arrived at the east gate of Daozhou City.

After walking for such a long time, with the scorching sun above our heads, the flag players were all wilted, but they still managed to keep their spirits up.

Just when the motorcade was about to enter the city, suddenly, a woman rushed out from the city gate, knelt down in front of the honor guard, and cried loudly, "The women of the people have been wronged, please forgive the women of the people."

Make the decision!"

Seeing this happening as soon as the newly arrived governor entered the city, the officials who greeted Xia Ping'an suddenly turned green in the face.

"Where are you this bold and cunning woman? Drag her away..." An official on horseback shouted coldly and was about to order the woman blocking the road to be dragged away from the city gate.

"Wait a minute..." The curtain of the carriage opened. Xia Ping'an had already got off the carriage, passed directly past the officials and flag bearers, came to the place where the wronged woman was kneeling, and took a look at the woman.

The woman kneeling on the ground is in her twenties, wearing a coarse linen skirt, rough hands and face, and her face is dusty. At first glance, she must be a peasant woman from the countryside near Daozhou City. She has probably been waiting here for a long time.

"I am the newly appointed governor of Daozhou, Yangcheng, and the entire Daozhou is under my rule!" Xia Pingan glanced at the people watching the excitement around him, said loudly, and then reached out to help the woman, "You have

Why are you being wronged and why are you blocking the road? You can talk about it after you get up!"

"Ms. He, a commoner woman, asks you to make the decision for me..." The woman who was kneeling on the ground did not get up at all. Instead, she kowtowed and cried loudly. The woman's forehead was knocked on the dusty ground, and her forehead was knocked.

It's green and covered with dust. "My child has just turned one year old and has been snatched away. Please help me get my child back. Wuwuwuwu. I don't want to live without a child. Wuwuwu."

Woo hoo..."

"According to the provisions of our "Tang Code", those who rob people and sell them into slaves will be hanged; those who are slaves will be exiled for three thousand miles; those who are wives, concubines and descendants will be exiled for three years. Who dares to rob children in our Daozhou?

If you tell me, I will definitely make the decision for you. I want to see who in this city is so bold?" Xia Ping'an probably knew who did it, but he still told Tang Lu loudly.

, his righteous words made the people watching around him a little commotion.

"The civilian woman's child was snatched away by that man and several policemen!" The civilian woman raised her head and pointed at one of the officials standing behind Xia Pingan.

Xia Pingan turned his head and looked at the officials in Daozhou City behind him.

There are many officials who came to greet him today. They are all people from the governor's office of Daozhou. There are the governor's governor, the chief historian, the Sima, the recorder, the military officer, the Gongsi, the Cang, the Hu, and the Bing.

The officials of the Six Cao Cao including Judiciary, Si Shi, and some minor officials.

The person pointed by the peasant woman was none other than the Si Hu of the Six Cao Middle School of the Governor's Mansion. The position of Si Hu was to count people's household registration. In Xia Ping'an's eyes, he was a small official as sesame as mung beans, but in the eyes of ordinary people,

, this kind of petty official is also a great big shot.

The Sihu of Daozhou City is a man who looks like a pig. He is in his thirties, with bubbles in his eyes, black eye bags, and a fat brain. He has been sweating profusely and panting after walking this distance. He was in Guanyi just now.

At the meeting, the Sihu introduced himself. Xia Pingan still remembered this guy, his name was Wang Qi.

Seeing the civilian woman pointing at him and the governor looking over, the Sihu Wang Qi's face changed. He was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. He quickly defended, "Please tell me, sir, I will never

I have never kidnapped children!"

"Then why did she correct you?" Xia Pingan asked calmly, "Are you saying that she falsely accused you? If she falsely accused you, I can make the decision for you and clear your name and punish her!"

"It's you. Just ten days ago, you came to my house with a few policemen and snatched away my child. You also injured me with an iron ruler and pushed me to the ground. You turned into ashes and I also

I recognize it, and all the neighbors around my home can testify..." The civilian woman looked at the clerk, gritted her teeth, wiped her tears, and directly in front of everyone, she tore off her clothes, revealing a black streak on her shoulder.

"Sir, please see, this is the mark left by that person who hit me with an iron ruler. My husband died of illness when the child was just one month old. Now they are here to snatch my child again. God, what am I doing?"

What evil have you done? Why do you do this to me..."

The woman was crying on the ground, her voice was so sad that everyone around her looked at her with sympathy, and many of the women who were watching almost shed tears after hearing this.

Moreover, with such a commotion, more and more people were watching at the city gate. With the blink of an eye, there were people from three floors inside and three floors around.

"This...this..." There was sweat on the forehead of the clerk, and he looked at his colleagues around him for help, especially the Sicang official, but the Sicang official looked away, not wanting to take this trouble, and saw

Xia Pingan's eyes began to turn cold, and Sihu Wang Qi could only hesitate and say, "Master Governor... this... can you please go back to the official office and explain to your Excellency..."

"Where we are in the Tang Dynasty, under the land of the Emperor and the Empress, are all places of reason. The place where this palace is located is the court. If you have reasons, why go to the Yamen to talk about it!" Xia Pingan said loudly, with murderous intent and righteous words.

The countless people watching around were shocked, "If you have anything to say, you can say it now. In front of countless people in Daozhou City in this city, you can explain it clearly to me now. If you don't explain it clearly, I will immediately

I will take your head for the crime of robbery!"

Hearing what Xia Ping'an said, the Sihu Wang Qi gritted his teeth, lowered his head and defended, "Sir...Sir...I didn't rob anyone. I was...preparing tributes for His Majesty!"

They actually carried out the emperor and the tributes?

Xia Pingan had been staring at Wang Qi's face. Looking at Wang Qi's face, Xia Pingan sneered in his heart. He actually wanted to use the emperor and tributes to pressure me. In front of so many people, you didn't mention the emperor and tributes.

Well, if you say it now, you are seeking death. You probably don’t know how you passed the Jinshi exam.

"When did the Tang Dynasty offer children and infants as tribute? How come I didn't know when I came from Chang'an just now?" Xia Pingan asked.

"This...this...children and infants cannot be used as tributes, but dwarf puppets can be. Your Excellency, you should have seen those dwarf puppets in Chang'an City. Those dwarf puppets were trained by those children. This

It’s the earth offering of our Daozhou City!” This Sihu Wang Qi actually had a needle hidden in his clothes and wanted to turn against him.

"Oh, really?" Xia Ping'an smiled, "So, you admitted that you had robbed this civilian woman's child?"

"Sir, it's not robbing, it's collecting soil as tribute!" Sihu Wang Qi continued to argue.

Xia Pingan asked the woman who complained, "When he took away your child, did he give you money or silk?"

The woman shook her head, "No, these people always snatch children directly..."

When Xia Ping'an heard this, his face instantly turned cold, and he pointed directly at Sihu Wang Qi, "Come here, capture this robbing traitor for me!"
