In his previous life, Cui Xian was a PhD in Chinese Language and Literature from a prestigious university.
In this life, he has transmigrated into an impoverished family in ancient times.
...Hexi Village.
In the green fields.
Many people were reciting the "Two Poems of Pity the Peasants" to each other.
The old man who had taken care of the crops all his life had tears in his old eyes.
The woman with a weather-beaten face stared blankly at her rough, scarred palms.
There is no idle land in the world, yet farmers still starve to death!
Yes, why is this?
Maybe people never thought about it before and didn’t know about it.
But now, everyone has the answer in their hearts.
The wind was howling over the fields and wilderness.
The crops swayed.
On behalf of the old farmer who had endured a lifetime of suffering in silence, he raised questions and roared!
A hunchbacked old man stood up tremblingly and first looked at Cui Xian with gratitude.
Then, with a 'bang', he knelt down on his knees.
He humbly pressed his body and head into the field that had trapped him his entire life, and shouted hoarsely, gritting his teeth and trembling, "I beg the Lord of Heaven to make a decision for us and take down Zhao Zhi!"
These words sound like a clarion call to battle.
In an instant, the whole field was on fire.
An honest middle-aged man with patches all over his body stood up.
A young woman, with red eyes, stood up, holding her two children.
The brothers Cui Zhongyuan and Cui Boshan, along with a group of scholars in long robes, stood up.
Old Cui, with tears on her face, stood up with the people of Hexi Village.
Then, the crowd fell to the ground like waves of wheat.
Countless voices, some old, some young, sounded one after another.
"I beg you, sir, to help me and take down Zhao Zhi!"
"I beg you, sir, to help me and take down Zhao Zhi!"
This scene is truly shocking.
Ye Huaifeng, who took over a case for the first time since taking office, was stunned and speechless as he looked at the countless people kneeling in front of him.
The primary school students led by Pei Jian were also shocked.
They are still young, with such immature eyes and eyebrows. Perhaps before today, they did not understand the meaning behind a grain of rice at all.
But today, Cui Xian told them: every grain of rice is hard-earned.
The young primary school students all turned their heads and looked at Cui Xian who was surrounded by everyone, with admiration, worship, or excitement.
Because at this moment, Cui Xian seemed to them to be full of energy and dazzling.
As dazzling as Young Master Hongmao!
Pei Jian's face flushed red, and he was shaking with excitement. He looked at Cui Xian, his eyes sparkling with stars: "Brother Xian! You are so awesome, really, invincible!"
"He composed poems on the spot. The "Two Poems of Pity the Peasants" made me want to cry."
"Brother, I can't think of any good words to praise you right now, but you were really cool and unrestrained just now, full of chivalry! You are really a role model for our generation."
Zhuang Jin, Li Heyu and Gao Qi were also so excited that their faces turned red, and they could only nod their heads frantically.
Although my eldest brother is not educated.
But big brother is willing to cheer for you and charge into battle!
Therefore, under the leadership of Pei Jian.
A group of young-looking, hate-evil elementary school students also stood up.
Their voices are clear and powerful, just like they are reciting aloud in class!
"I beg you, sir, to help me and take down Zhao Zhi!"
This is public resentment.
It is also the people’s wish!
Amid the angry roars of "Please arrest Zhao Zhi", Zhao Yaozu stared at Cui Xian blankly, and fear and dejection finally appeared in his eyes.
The county magistrate Zhao Zhi, who had been fearless, showed panic for the first time.
He sensed the danger of death.
These unruly people, whom he usually ignored, now gathered together and glared at him.
Stared at by these angry eyes, Zhao Zhi subconsciously took a few steps back.
then.
County Magistrate Zhao reacted, looked at Cui Xian fiercely, and said in a timid tone: "Okay, very good! You are not naive enough to think that you can convict me just by writing two crooked poems, right?"
"I am an eighth-rank county magistrate, selected by the Ministry of Personnel..."
Before Zhao Zhi could finish his words, he felt as if struck by lightning.
Facing Zhao Zhi's gaze, Cui Xian took out a stack of documents and sneered, "Of course, writing poems cannot convict you, but what about these? You annexed land, forged evidence of losing households, canceling households, and missing households."
"It's clearly written in black and white. Is it possible to convict you?"
Zhao Zhi's face turned pale all of a sudden.
He hid these things very secretly. How did this kid from the Cui family get them?
When people heard that Cui Xian had obtained evidence of Zhao Zhi's land annexation, their eyes lit up, and they were surprised and admired.
This kid is really amazing.
Heroes emerge from youth!
Ye Huaifeng was stunned, his eyes gleaming with brilliance. He looked at Zhao Zhi and shouted coldly, "Zhao Zhi! Do you have anything else to say now?"
Zhao Zhi took a deep breath and finally lost his previous arrogance.
But, he still has a chance!
Under the disdainful gazes of the crowd, Zhao Zhi knelt down in front of Ye Huaifeng with a look of humiliation and whispered, "I am confused and have indeed made some mistakes."
"But my Zhao family owns many businesses and supports countless people. I beg the county magistrate to be merciful and reprimand me severely. I will leave it to you to deal with me."
After saying that, Zhao Zhi raised his head and looked at Ye Huaifeng obscurely.
Ye Huaifeng understood the implication in this person's words, and his heart began beating faster and faster for no reason.
That’s the wealthy Zhao family!
Now it is in my hands.
As long as you turn a blind eye, raise your hand high and lower it gently, and let this person go, you can take over the Zhao family's huge fortune!
