Teahouse.

Luo Fengtang took a sip of tea.

"This tea is good, it seems to be shipped from the south of the Yangtze River."

Luo Fengtang changed the topic.

If he continued talking, he was worried that he would laugh out loud.

"The tea from Jiangnan is very expensive, and you can only drink it in Sixiang City." Ouyang Heng said.

Mickey finally suppressed her laughter and took a sip of tea to refresh herself.

"Master, are we here specifically to listen to books?"

Mi Qi asked, following Luo Fengtang in disguise, leaving the county magistrate's house and coming to the street, not knowing what to do.

"Relax, relax. The reason we came out this time is to walk around and take a look at the people at the bottom of the city. Sometimes we stand too high and we often ignore what the people want."

Luo Fengtang said casually.

In fact, he didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to go shopping and bring some souvenirs to his family.

After listening to the book for a while, there was sudden noise from the front.

"Hit someone, beat him to death!"

There was a sound of crying and howling.

The storyteller's voice paused, and everyone turned their attention to the outside of the teahouse.

On the street, a skinny young man was struggling to drag a cart. He looked like an adult under the rags on the cart.

The young man yelled in a hoarse voice without any words.

After a while, after turning the corner, Luo Fengtang heard the discussion in the teahouse.

"Hey, what time is this this month?"

"I can't remember clearly."

"Who knows, anyway, a lot of people died."

"..."

After listening for a while, I didn't understand.

Luo Fengtang tapped his fingers on the table and called a boy over.

Just take out a small amount of money and make the boy smile.

"Master, what do you need me to do?" the boy asked respectfully.

"Do you know about the young man outside?" Luo Fengtang asked slowly.

"I know, I know." The boy nodded fiercely.

"I came to Sixiang from the capital less than half a month ago. I don't know why this happened. If you tell me, if you say it well, I will get your reward." Luo Fengtang said.

The boy's eyes lit up.

Are there rewards for speaking well?

This shouldn't be neglected. The man in front of you is so bold in his actions.

"Is such that……"

"That young boy, his old father works in the nearby coalfield. This coalfield... is not a good place. It is a place where people can be eaten. That boy's father was swallowed by the coalfield..."

"My grandpa went to the coal fields to cause trouble and demand compensation."

"How can there be any compensation for him? Look, he was beaten to death by the stewards in the coalfield."

Speaking of this, the young man couldn't help but sigh.

"How dare they beat people to death? They must be too brave!"

Luo Fengtang was stunned.

The boy lowered his voice and said: "Sir, you don't know that their family not only beats people to death, but also kidnaps them. They kidnap strong laborers from other places and throw them into the coal fields to work.

Two years later, he collapsed and died there, who knows!"

"Does the court care? I heard that Governor Qiu is a very good official. The government should handle such blatant violations of Qi's laws."

Luo Fengtang frowned.

"It's true that Sheriff Qiu is a good official, but in fact, Sheriff Qiu is just a person. How does he know so many things?"

"There are people behind the coalfield! They are all hidden from the outside world, and the evidence has long been destroyed."

The boy looked around for a few times, fearing that he would be discovered.

If Luo Fengtang hadn't given him enough, he would never have dared to say such words.

"Hey, it turns out that in the bustling scenery of Sixiang City, there is such a thing."

Ouyang Heng sighed.

"Isn't this normal? You see, Admiral Luo is dividing the fields, attacking powerful people, and doing things that offend others. Why? Isn't it just to give the people a way to survive?"

Mickey said.

"My son, it's not easy."

Luo Fengtang nodded.

He knew that Luo Xingchen was under great pressure. For this reason, all the helpers he could send had been sent, and he himself could not go to the north.

Everything here in Sixiang City is in chaos now.

After Sixiang City stabilizes, I still don't know what to do next. It depends on the emperor's wishes.

"Mickey, let's go take a look."

Luo Fengtang felt that he couldn't sit idly by and ignore it. Since he already knew it, he should go and take a look.

…

Yu Xiaodong returned to the house.

There is air leakage everywhere in the dilapidated house. It has been rainy these past few days, making the house even more humid.

He sat back on the mud kang, wrapped in some tattered cotton wool, staring blankly in front of him.

The cart was parked under a canopy. The grandfather on the cart had been dead for a long time, but he had no ability to bury him.

I finally got brave enough to take my grandfather for a spin, hoping to find justice.

However, such an idea must have been in vain. After going around for a while, no one complained about him.

He wanted to take his grandfather to the government office to complain, but he couldn't find the way and had no strength left. He was about to starve to death.

"Is this where the little brat lives?"

"It stinks, what the hell is this place!"

"Hurry up and kill that little brat and leave quickly. I'm afraid there's going to be a plague in this place."

"Yes, boss, we will leave as soon as we finish the work."

There was chatter and shouting outside.

Yu Xiaodong also understood that someone was coming to kill and silence him.

But he had no strength to move, could not stand up at all, and could do nothing except wait for death.

As the footsteps gradually approached, the curtain outside was opened.

Then, suddenly, a strong man and two younger brothers appeared at the door.

The three of them are all very smart. They like to work hard and have good food.

If you are poor in literature and rich in martial arts, it will be difficult for you to practice martial arts without enough food.

The strong man held a rope in his hand, looked at Yu Xiaodong who was huddled in the bed, turned his head and said: "You two, catch that kid, wait until I hang up the rope and kill him."

"Kill for life!"

Yu Xiaodong muttered weakly.

"Killing to pay for life? It makes me laugh so hard. I have seen so many dead people over the years. Which murderer pays for it with his life?"

"A cheap life is a cheap life. If you die, you will die. What are you thinking about?"

The strong man sneered, as if he had heard the biggest joke.

"Arrested."

Two men, one on the left and one on the right, lifted Yu Xiaodong up.

"It doesn't take two people, just one person."

"Yes, this little brat is very light."

"What are you talking about? Just carry it when I tell you!"

The strong man glared at them dissatisfiedly. Without stopping, he had already hung the hemp rope on the roof beam and tied a knot underneath.

This killing is also very particular.

Killed with one knife, that is the worst of the worst.

The only way to kill someone in a truly sophisticated way is to make it invisible to others. It looks like suicide no matter how you look at it.

Judging from external conditions, it is only natural that Yu Xiaodong commits suicide.

"Every wrongdoer has his own owner, and the person who killed you is not us, but the old man. You have to remember it clearly."
