"Crack... Bang... Thud!"
A series of sounds of porcelain shattering and furniture toppling came from the Ningcheng County office, making the outside plump county magistrate's face twist into a look that resembled a bitter melon.
“My lord, who has angered you? Please tell this humble official, and I will help you deal with him!”
Finally, after another crisp sound rang out, the plump county magistrate could no longer remain still. Amidst the admiring gazes of Xiao Dong and Gengzi, he cautiously approached the door gap and exclaimed, “The plates in my home are innocent!”
"Crack..."
As soon as the plump magistrate finished speaking, the originally closed door was suddenly kicked open. Caught off guard, the plump magistrate was directly struck in the eye by the door swinging out, causing him to see stars and cry out in pain while covering his eye.
“Oh, ouch…”
“Who? Who is it? What happened?”
Feeling a surge of unnamed anger, Xiao Han was surprised to see the chubby county magistrate sprawled on the ground outside the door. Now that he realized he had injured him with a kick, he not only felt all his anger dissipate but also felt a bit embarrassed about whether he had gone too far with his earlier actions.
“I, a lowly official.”
Fortunately, at that moment, the chubby county magistrate was covering his eyes, completely neglecting everything else and having no time to consider whether Xiao Han’s expression was awkward. He only hurriedly waved one hand and said, “I’m fine! I’m fine!”
“Really nothing happened?” Looking at the rapidly swelling eye sockets of the chubby county magistrate, Xiao Han couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Goodness, he had not only smashed someone's house but also beaten up their people, and in the end, he was expected to make them pretend that nothing had happened.
If this were in a script, it would definitely be the role of the villainous clown. I just wonder if a certain hero will descend from the skies and take me out with a single strike.
Of course, that's just a passing thought.
If a fool of a chivalrous hero really appeared, not to mention Xiao Dong, even the tens of thousands of Ning Cheng citizens outside could tear him apart.
Having stayed in Ning Cheng for so long, Xiao Han's reputation in Ning Cheng has already been elevated to an almost mythical status.
Build a new city! Fight against traitors! Develop agriculture! Create water conservancy!
Although some of these matters are mainly led by the fat county magistrate, in the eyes of the people of Ningcheng, it is all credited to Xiao Han!
Otherwise, do you think the county magistrate has been in office for so many years and hasn’t accomplished such great things before? Why is it that once Lord Xiao arrives, you suddenly have an awakening? Now you start to seek benefits for the common people?
So, whether he likes it or not, the fat county magistrate has to admit that nowadays, even if Xiao Han just farts in Ning City, it’s more effective than him shouting his lungs out for half a day.
“It’s okay, it’s good if everything is fine.”
Feeling awkward, Xiao Han patted the shoulders of the plump county magistrate and turned back to glance at the county office, where he had lived for a long time. Suddenly, his expression turned somber. “My lord, I have received an imperial order. I must immediately head to Jinan. During this time, I apologize for troubling you, County Magistrate!”
“What? Going to Jinan? Still bothering?”
The fat county magistrate, who was originally grimacing in pain, seemed to be struck by lightning upon hearing this. He stood there dazed, not even blinking his eyes!
He only knew that two letters had arrived from Chang'an this morning, one after the other, and then Xiao Han didn't know whether he had read the first letter or the second letter, but suddenly he began to fly into a rage!
But he never expected that the letter was actually an order to transfer Xiao Han to Jinan!
Command!
Alright, I can get used to living here, but suddenly being kicked out makes me feel a bit uncomfortable. But it's not me who's kicking you out, right?
```htmlWhy are you smashing my family's plates and bowls? Fine, you smashed them and then just walked away, leaving my whole family to eat with broken pottery?
Still causing trouble? What an impudent person! If you knew it was causing trouble, you should have politely cleaned the room from top to bottom, left to right, and finally forked out a few dozen coins, saying, "Dad, you came here to..."```
However, these thoughts only flashed through the heart of the fat county magistrate; he also knew that if he spoke them out, it would probably not end well for him.
“What, what’s with this sudden turn?”
After being in a daze for quite a while, the plump county magistrate finally came to his senses and, as if recalling something, hurriedly pulled a long face and pretended to be reluctant, asking, "Aren't you doing just fine here? You’re indispensable to the Lord! How can you just say you're leaving?"
“Nonsense! Do you think I want to?” Xiao Han glared sideways at the chubby county magistrate, as if trying to discern how much sincerity was hidden in his words of invitation.
But, whether he had sincerity or not, what difference did it make? He still had to run to Jinan to meet that deadpan face that no one wanted to see.
```htmlOriginally, Xiao Han sent that blood letter to Ma Zhou, hoping to use Ma Zhou as a divine sword to break the current deadlock in Shandong!
By the way, he wanted to declare to the world that this has nothing to do with him; he bears no responsibility! If there's a problem, go find Ma Zhou!```
To my surprise, after waiting left and right, I ended up receiving such a piece of news.
In another secret letter from the Xiao family, the grand performance in the court that day was clearly documented.
On that day in Chang'an during the morning court, when the guard presented the blood letter, Li Shimin unexpectedly shed tears on the spot and pounded his chest in grief, saying that it was his own failure that caused the common people to live in dire straits.
Seeing the emperor like this, the other ministers, whether genuinely lamenting for the common people or just putting on a show, dared not stand there like pillars anymore. They could only accompany him, secretly wiping away their tears with their sleeves.
No one expected that just after the ministers had finally squeezed out a few tears that they hadn’t even had time to wipe away, the grief-stricken Li Shimin suddenly slammed the table, gritting his teeth as he directly gave the order.
The land is the foundation of the nation and the root of the people! It must not be treated lightly! The chaos in Shandong serves as a warning! To prevent repeating past mistakes, I hereby appoint Ma Zhou as the governor of Shandong, to measure and register all the land in Shandong, and then allocate it to the local people by household!
Since then, the land belongs entirely to the Tang Dynasty, and the common people only enjoy usage rights, with no rights to buy or sell, fundamentally eliminating the risk of the common people losing their land!
As soon as this order was issued, many bewildered ministers were still trying to wrap their heads around it when Li Shimin ominously continued, "Due to the recent upheaval in Shandong and the rise of bandits in various regions, including those who occupy mountains and claim territories, I hereby appoint Xiao Han as the General of Anti-Bandit Operations in Shandong, responsible for fighting against the bandits and restoring peace for the local people!"
After this set of combination punches, all the ministers were completely stunned!
Not long ago, they were still worried and feared that the emperor would exploit the Shandong issue to make a big deal out of it! After all, nearly thirty percent of the ministers in the court originated from the seven clans and five surnames, and there are countless others with connections!
Now, I've heard that they are only measuring the land and distributing it to the common people? It seems there’s no intention to investigate further? This allows their anxious hearts to finally settle down. “Crack… Bang… Thud!”
