Chapter 319 Liu Po's Means
The county magistrate's name was Wang Wei, and he had a lot of friendship with Liu Po on weekdays, and it seemed that he also had a face of justice.
"Not bad." Li Yin muttered softly, then nodded.
On the other side, someone stood up for no apparent reason, thinking that the matter had been revealed and wanted to share responsibility with Liu Po.
"Your Majesty Zhang Liang, see Your Highness!"
Zhang Liang has a fat figure. He usually smiles when reporting crimes at the county government. He looks like a Maitreya Buddha, but he is very clear in his heart.
But now he stood up with Wang Wei, but his face was stern, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Your Highness, although these people have small official positions, they are all honest and upright people." Wei Zheng admired secretly in his heart, and couldn't help reminding Li Min.
Seeing that the corners of Li Yin's mouth curled up slightly, he laughed lightly.
"You are all very good. When the disaster situation in Yizhou eases, this king will definitely go to the imperial court to ask for your credit."
Li Yin waved his hand, and it was over.
But it made Liu Po and others dumbfounded, each of them muttering in their hearts that Li Yin didn't blame them for the crime of deception.
Thinking of what Li Yin did before, he couldn't help being moved.
"Your Highness is wise!" The three said in unison.
Liu Po made up his mind and walked straight towards the rioting crowd, his eyes were firm without any wavering.
But it made many officials behind him see the joke.
"Look at how cowardly he is, even a county magistrate dares to steal our limelight. We will have good fruit from him in the future!"
"That's not the case, such a small county magistrate can clean it up with a flick of a finger."
Several officials spoke in a low voice, but still failed to escape Li Yin's ears, which made him frown and sneer endlessly.
Then he turned his face to look at Wei Zheng. What he dislikes most about this stern official is the favoritism among officials.
"Master Wei, I feel that the officialdom in Yizhou needs to be rectified."
Wei Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood what Li Yin meant, and nodded directly.
"I think so too!"
After the two spoke, many officials in Yizhou all changed their faces and were shocked.
It's a pity that Liu Po couldn't see such a scene, but saw him resolutely walking towards the chaotic crowd.
Straight caused a burst of abuse.
"Dog officials! They are all a group of dog officials who can only bully good people!" A young and strong man roared, but was suddenly pulled back by the people around him.
"Zhuzi! This is Mr. Liu, he is a famous upright official in Yizhou!"
After saying that, the elder wanted to come to apologize to Liu Po, but in such a chaotic scene, who could listen to his words.
All of them besieged Liu Po one after another, directly making the officials standing in the distance gloat over his misfortune.
However, Li Yin took a deep breath, a little worried about Liu Po's safety.
But the fearlessness shown by the little county magistrate in front of him was beyond his imagination.
"I'll see who dares to make a mistake!"
"I am an official of the imperial court, and if you beat me, you are rebelling!"
Liu Po's voice was stern, and his roar immediately frightened many people from moving.
The so-called combination of grace and power was brought to the extreme in Liu Po's case.
Seeing that his expression softened slightly, he said.
"Fathers and folks, I am an official in Yizhou. Everyone must have heard a lot about how I am."
"Listen to me!"
After Liu Po said this, everyone started talking, and even a child with a yellow mouth among the crowd also spoke.
"Master Liu is an upright official and can clearly judge right from wrong. My father said you are a good person!"
After the child finished speaking, everyone lowered their heads, which was regarded as acquiescing to this evaluation.
And it was what the child said that made Liu Po see hope, and then walked over.
"Little friend, where is your father? Let me meet him." Liu Po was delighted.
An adult who can teach children like this must be sensible, and it is his best breakthrough to solve this turmoil.
But he didn't expect that what the child said next made him froze in place, unable to utter another word.
"My father is gone."
"Yesterday the officers and soldiers robbed food, but my father refused to give it, so the leader kicked him and didn't recover."
The child has a big heart and does not realize how deeply his words hurt people's hearts.
The people in the commotion were all red-eyed and wanted to fight Liu Po, but they saw Liu Po slowly getting up.
"Little friend, is the person who killed your father here?"
Liu Po's tone was gentle, but it made Wang Wei and Zhang Liang change their faces.
"Stop brother Liu, you can't let him do something!" Wang Wei looked anxious, as Liu Po's confidant and friend, he knew best what Liu Po would do at this moment.
Seeing this, Li Yin couldn't help laughing.
"Don't stop me, Mr. Liu is a good official, but now that the people are complaining, I'm afraid he can't do anything about it."
"Let him deal with it himself, good or bad."
Li Yin was not angry and pretentious, no one would dare to cross him to interfere with Liu Po.
Seeing that many people looked at Liu Po one after another, almost at the same time the child also pointed to a local grain requisition officer.
"It was he who killed my father!"
it is good!
Liu Po yelled, and then took away the waist knife of the soldiers around him, and pierced the grain requisition officer's chest under the eyes of all the people.
All of a sudden, the audience was silent, and the originally noisy crowd was exceptionally quiet at this moment.
Even Li Yin never expected that Liu Po would have such decisive means.
"Bold! Kill Liu Po in public, arrest Liu Po!" An official hurriedly ordered his men to get up, but Cheng Yaojin pushed him away.
"Your Highness hasn't spoken here, so it's your turn to give orders!"
Although Cheng Yaojin also felt that Liu Po's actions were a bit extreme, but it was a very satisfying thing to treat such a grain requisition officer who carelessly ignores human life.
"Liu...Master Liu, what are you doing!"
The elder was surprised and couldn't speak very clearly, so he saw Liu Po walking up to the child and talking.
"The catastrophe fell on Yizhou, and the people of Yizhou should have worked together to carry it together."
"However, there are beasts like grain requisition officials, who take the imperial salary but don't think about serving the country and the people, and only squeeze the people to force taxes!"
call……
Liu Po let out a long breath, and then knelt down in front of everyone.
"If everyone believes in me, Liu Po, then don't cause any more trouble for the court. If another person dies of starvation in the future, Liu Po's life will be used to pay for it!"
After Liu Po said, the people became quieter immediately, and under the lead of the elders, many people regretted it too late.
"Master Liu does not hesitate to use his official position to make decisions for us poor people, why are you making a fuss!" the elder cried out in pain.
Another man followed suit.
"If the trouble continues, a good person like Mr. Liu will be forced to death by us!"
