Let him go, I ordered. Mo Yun was embarrassed to let go. Sorry, old man. I didn’t mean to say anything.
I smiled bitterly and was scared to pee my pants. I’m sorry, my brother is relatively straight and strong. He has no other meaning. Don’t get me wrong. We just came back from abroad out of curiosity. We just want to ask you.
They’re coming. The old man pointed to the distance. We looked in the direction he pointed to and saw several people in white robes.
Who are they? Leng Mengzhe asked curiously
They are small priests in the Temple of God, the old man replied trembling.
Let’s go in and talk. By the way, old man, you have tea. I looked at a small teahouse next to you and motioned for everyone to go in.
After everyone sat down, the old man took a sip of tea and finally calmed down.
Young man, I think you have come back from abroad, so I will tell you some national feelings. You have to suffer, said the old man with good intentions
Good old man, is the national tax high now? I asked
Alas, it’s hard for us to be divided into taxes or become a major tax. This year’s war was turned into a nine-point tax, but now the tax has not been transferred back after the war. How can we live? Alas, the old man is pouring grievances at me.
God, such a high tax! Mo Yun exclaimed. Why didn’t I notice it before?
What else can you pay attention to besides fighting and eating? Leng Mengzhe teased.
I gave them a cross-eye, and then continued to ask the old man cheerfully, what happened in the temple just now?
Well, to be honest, if the tax department is the country to build the country or expand its armaments, we are not so sad. After all, if the country has built the country and expanded its armaments, then we will at least not worry about life and death. But it is said that less than 40% of the 90% tax is contributed to the temple. We don’t particularly believe this news, but seeing that the government office is still so old, the temple in the county town has been overhauled twice in three years, which is not a local decoration. How can we not believe it?
It is said that coming to the temple is the representative of God on earth to protect our people. Our country is getting stronger and stronger, and our people’s lives are getting better and better. We can protect our crops and our country’s prosperity and national security. But now what we see is that they usually plunder the people’s fat and paste, how they usually cross the countryside, how they dominate the country, and how they rob the people and women and do dirty things. The old man is getting more and more excited and forgets to pay attention to his voice.
Then didn’t the government take care of it? Said angrily
The government can’t control it if it wants to, but they don’t even care about the emperor. Oh, my God, said the old man, spitting bitterly.
Old man, be careful what you say. A young man at the next table is awake. They came in.
Well, the old man looked back at the horse and shrank his neck.
What are you talking about, old man? A white robe came over and got it.
I-I didn’t
Hum, you dare not glance at him in a white robe and suddenly find that the guy at the next table quietly got up to walk away. Why are you hiding from your guilt?
The young man ran out as soon as he shouted.
Isn’t this a small time to resist taxes? Everyone shouted that there was a white robe to catch fugitives. Suddenly, the teahouse was in chaos, and several white robes rushed to chase them.
Chapter 41 A family reunion
The young man quickly passed through several lanes and looked back. At last, he couldn’t see the pursuers, so he sat down on the ground and gasped, cursing his mother. It was not so easy for you guys to catch the little master, but you saw a row of big feet in front of you, each of which was 4 yards.
What’s the boy running for? I asked with a smile
Ah, it’s you, young man. You want to scare me to death for a long time. Why are you following me? Be careful that those guys think you are my accomplices.
What will happen if you treat us as your partners? I watched him carefully.
Of course, I was arrested. The young man looked at me like an idiot.
Arrest you for killing people. I pretended to be afraid. Everyone tacitly cooperated with me and looked at him with fear eyes. Leng Mengzhe flew up with branches and looked at him nervously.
You misunderstood, young man, and immediately shouted injustice. Although I came from Xiaowu, I hunted in the mountains and never did anything harmful.
Then what, they want to arrest you?
Just because I refuse to let them stipulate taxes, the young man hates to say that the country has collected 90% of the taxes, and 40% of them have been filial to them. They will ask us for taxes privately. I refuse. Is it wrong that their temple has forced the government to arrest me? What kind of world is this?
What’s your name? I asked with a smile
Slag hey, why do you ask me this? Slag suddenly became alert. Who the hell are you? What do you want to do? He said, slamming forward, and a dagger flashed across my throat. Are you going to arrest me?
I have a funny feeling in my heart. The young man is so tender. His hands are still shaking. At first glance, he didn’t kill anyone. I’m not worried at all, but they can’t hold their breath.
Mo Yun was the first to get angry. Bold, this is the Temple of King Wu. Don’t let it go?
As soon as the dregs of Wuwangdian were frightened, I laughed in my heart. Okay, okay, I think you are, too. I’ll tell you what, don’t hide from the dregs. You can be my personal bodyguard when you fight.
What, you, you don’t lie to me. Oh, scum is surprised but can’t believe her ears.
Hehe, I smiled, buckled my middle finger with my thumb and gently flicked it on the blade. As soon as the dagger hit the ground, it was interrupted. I looked at the slag with my mouth wide open and joked.
Xie Dian’s slag reaction was really quick. He immediately lost his knife and knelt down to salute.
Hehe, get up and work hard beside the king. Let’s make a military achievement in the future or return home one day. Hahahaha, I laughed but I didn’t feel a trace of joy in my heart. The cancer of this country is hateful
Fortunately, my father didn’t fail me. I bowed down and saluted.
Well done, Father Dongfeng nodded to me with a smile and cast a glance at Qin Heng at the same time.
I took advantage of the opportunity to look at Qin Wei and looked away awkwardly.
However, people started gossiping while I was away, which I think is expected.
The purpose is to give a banquet tonight. King Wu got a dinner, and my father was very happy to walk in the dragon chair and help me get up.
