"Of course it works!"

Her eyes were filled with eagerness full of challenges, and Chang Ping dragged her little hand out with full fighting power.

"Are we reporters! If the news doesn't come to your door, we will take the initiative to attack. Aren't you afraid that you will lose face when you return to the capital? Then leave quickly!"

"But, I'm really sleepy! Heh~, it's so early, hey, don't drag me, I'm going! I'm going!!!"

He was dragged out of the house by running and bouncing, and next to the nearest farmhouse where the reporter was stationed, two fledgling young ladies and journalists blocked him carelessly, they should be brothers, and two honest old farmers just carried the soup pot for lunch at noon When he wanted to go out, he was stopped by two crazy beauties with big eyes.

"Hello, I'm Zhu Yuhui, an interview reporter from the Imperial Capital Daily. This is my colleague Toyotomi Chiyo. Could you please talk about the local distribution of land and taxation and people's livelihood?"

A big stick microphone made of wood was held in front of the eyes, Changping's small face was full of professional and warm smiles, Chiyohime was yawning and holding a small notebook to record, but these two reporters are definitely strong enough in the background More than a dozen bodyguards with revolvers on their waists stared at them murderously. Under those eyes, the two old farmers kneeled on the ground with their legs softening, kowtowing their heads sadly.

"My lord, spare me! The little family really has no money!"

Chang Ping: "..."

Just do what you say, in one morning, the two little girls walked around four villages along the outskirts of Zhengcheng County, and didn't stop until after twelve o'clock at noon. Sitting under a big willow tree, suddenly fanning her big lady hat with feathers, Chiyohime screamed sadly.

"It's so hot! In this damn weather, Miss Ben's skin is tanned!"

"These unreasonable people are simply unreasonable. My lady, the capital, came all the way to uphold justice for them, but she pretended to be dumb and didn't speak a word! In the words of Bandit Mao, she's a bastard!"

Leaning against the edge of the willow tree, Chang Ping was panting slightly, her fair little face was also slightly tanned, and her delicate skin was covered with a nice layer of oil paint with sweat, her little face was also full of Frustration. There were more than 20 interviewees in one morning, and the results were surprisingly consistent. Three families begged for mercy and said nothing, sixteen were "dumb", and two simply ran away.

But after being frustrated for a moment, the proud princesses regained their fighting spirit and anger, and shook their heads angrily.

"Chiyo, the more this is the case, the more it means there is a problem!"

"Even if there is a problem, if they don't open their mouths, we can't write nonsense, right?"

Although Chiyoji was complaining, what she said was true. Touching the sweat on his forehead, Chang Ping asked the guard beside him a little anxiously: "Lieutenant He, the child you asked to find yesterday, Is there no news yet?"

"Back to Miss! No, people in the village say that there is no such family at all, and some even say that it is Miss, you are fooling around! This group of unscrupulous people!"

Speaking of this, the guard sent by Nao Mao Jue also answered with a little irritability, and Chang Ping shook his head in discouragement after hearing this.

But after a while, she suddenly had a flash of light in front of her eyes, she turned her head abruptly, and asked hastily, "What did you call me just now?"

"According to your instructions, I will call you Miss outside!"

Full of astonishment, Captain He replied in astonishment.

"What did the villagers say about Miss Ben?"

"They said that Missy, you are just messing around, you are just a bunch of fools, how can you understand the important responsibility that Missy has, you don't need to be as knowledgeable as them, you can't be angry, the humble job will clean them up for you!"

His eyes became brighter and brighter, and he pulled Chiyo's little hand violently, and Changping greeted excitedly again: "Everyone clean up, let's go back to Shankou Village!"

"Oh my sister, rest and rest! Oh, don't drag me, can't I go?"

Sadly being pulled by Changping again like a big doll, Chiyo looked up to the sky and howled helplessly.

"Ms. Ben's beauty sleep!!!"

Changping and Chiyo lived in Hekou Village, which is the closest to Nanyang City in the south, and hoped that they would be least affected by the local government here, so they could find out some news, but Changping still paid close attention to the news in the county. , sent someone to watch at the yamen all the time, and just returned to the village, a guard immediately stepped forward to report.

"Miss, there is news from the county that the inspector censor has basically checked the county's field account books, and found no corruption or loopholes, and there are no loopholes in taxation, and no one has appealed for grievances."

"Supervision Censor Master Zhao means that he will be returning to Beijing in two days!"

"understood!"

Without the slightest bit of discouragement, Chang Ping happily agreed, and then ran towards the village with the mournful Chiyo. In a short time, she slipped in front of the pigsty where she found the dirty wolf kid yesterday.

"What are you doing here, it stinks!"

Tired and out of breath, the smell of pig manure hit her face again, making Chiyoji's face turn pale, and she cried out in distress.

"Lieutenant He, lend me the gun."

"Miss, do you want"

The chief guard's face was a little nervous. Although Chang Ping really killed someone, the Ministry of Criminal Justice would not dare to come and arrest her, but the concubine's random killing would have a bad impact on Mao Jue.

"Don't worry! I have a measure!"

Chang Ping was in high spirits, and it was hard to save her face. The guard carefully pulled out his gun and introduced it to Chang Ping.

"The gun has been loaded, miss, this is the safety switch, as long as you open it here, hey, be careful!"

Dongjiang was a martial artist, and the royal family also legally owned guns. Mao Jue gave each of his girls a delicate ivory wheel. Chang Ping naturally played with it, but she didn't like it.

She opened the safety very skillfully, closed one eye, and aimed at a big fat pig that was sleeping comfortably. She fired a gun and heard a puff. The fat pig has poured blood for eight lifetimes. It's moldy, the fat head and big ears exploded a big hole, and went to reincarnation without even whining.

The gunshots also attracted the people in the house. A woman who was still "dumb" in the morning ran out in two steps in a hurry, looking at the big fat pig with a blooming forehead in the pigsty, and the few of them who had no loyalty at all, and were frightened everywhere. Humming, humming, brother running around, she just collapsed on the ground, patting her thigh and crying loudly.

"Oh, my eldest lady, what a crime! You are good, what are you doing killing it? It didn't mess with you! How can we live like this! Ahhhhhh!"

Are you kidding me, miss?Changping here is extremely domineering, throwing the gun with the appearance of Gao Leng Yujie, and said disdainfully.

"Your family has six pigs, one is killed, and there are five left. Why can't you survive?"

"What do you know! These are not our pigs at all. They were brought over by Zhang Zhuang and Zhang Tuanwai last month to let us raise them. They said they could reduce the rent by [-]%. He was beaten to death! What are we going to do to compensate them? In winter, we will have some grains left after paying the rent. Pity my baby has to starve to death!"

Obviously, her expression became serious, and she exchanged glances with Chiyohime, she took out her small book, and Chang Ping asked hastily again: "Didn't the imperial court distribute ten acres of land to refugees without a permanent residence? Your family With such a large population, do you still have to rent other people’s fields to plant them?”

"What subdivision!"

She lost her mind in despair, and the village woman patted her thigh in grief and cried, "God damn the government is all liars! They said that they would divide the land, but they lost their registration, and they said that we plowed the Zhang family's field." Every year, [-]% of what they have to pay to their family is rent tax. The old Wang family was not convinced, and tried to escape with his family in the middle of the night, but they were caught and the couple were locked up in the house and burned alive. The old woman went crazy on the spot, and a child turned into a wild child with nowhere to rely on!"

"How could this be! Didn't anyone sue the officials?"

Even Lieutenant He couldn't help it anymore, and asked in shock, he was born in the orthodox old Liaodong, which was simply beyond his imagination. If there were landlords in Liaodong who dared to take human life so recklessly, they would have been shot seven or eight times.

"Government? Hmph!"

Hearing this, the old woman showed annoyance and disdain again amidst her grief and indignation, and roared angrily: "In Zhengcheng County, the Zhang family is the government, and the eldest son of the Zhang family is the chief executive of the public security bureau in the county. They are all his family’s dog legs, Lao Wang’s house was burnt by his family, no matter how the sky changes, all the crows in the world are generally black!”

While crying miserably, the last penny fell heavily, Chiyohime worriedly took out the money from her bosom, and wanted to pay her back, but who knew that Chang Ping, who was pinching his little chin and pondering, suddenly stopped her little hand, heavily shook his head.

"If you want to help them, you have to keep them next to each other in this catastrophe!"

"Miss, what shall we do next? Go to Zhao Yushi and the others?"

Wrinkles also appeared on his angry face, and the guard asked angrily, Chang Ping once again shook his head solemnly.
