Chapter 103 Who Made the Rules

"Master Kang, how are you going to deal with that Li Yu?" Tang Qingyi asked curiously.

At this moment, they were all at Tang Qingyi's home. It was a mud house, and the inside was a bit shabby. Especially with so many people coming in, the originally small house seemed even more crowded.

However, Wang Kang sat directly on the Tukang without any hesitation, which shocked everyone around him.

Is this still the prodigal young master of the Earl's Palace?

Wang Kang didn't pay attention to the expressions of others. He looked through the window and looked at Yuan Sun who was still sitting on the ground and screaming.

There was also a slight coldness in his eyes. The first time he met this member Sun, he used identity interpretation and naturally knew something about him.

His guess was indeed correct. With the help of Li Yu, Sun Yuanwai controlled the land occupied by the people, and many of his personal lands were forcibly purchased at low prices.

The name of Yangzhou City's big landowner is well-deserved. Most of the fertile land in the western suburbs is under his name, covering several hundred acres.

He does not grow these lands himself, but rents them to tenant farmers like Tang Qingyi's father, and the rent is very high.

And if you want to rent his land, you have to wait until the autumn harvest and then sell the grain produced in the land to him.

Of course, this price is far lower than the market price.

By squeezing the tenant farmers, he made a fortune this time without having to do anything.

A tenant farmer may be able to barely make ends meet after working hard for a year, and may not even be able to provide enough food and clothing.

In this way, he hoarded a large amount of food.

Where did all this food go?

He hoarded them all, manipulated the market, and raised food prices.

But Wang Kangcai knew that they also had a large grain shop, and the shopkeeper was also a relative of Li Yu!

In this way, an industrial chain was formed, but it was completely a dark industrial chain.

Squeeze the tenant farmers, drive up food prices, and make huge profits!

And the man behind this is Li Yu.

It is because of their existence that a poor tenant farmer area was formed in this western suburb.

Wang Kang even learned that in the process of occupying the land, many incidents occurred that injured and killed people, and the person who helped Sun Yuan was none other than the military officer Ya Cao who joined the army!

Dark! So dark!

Wang Kang asked someone to beat Yuan Sun when they met. It was for Tang Qingyi, but it was also for the farmers who were oppressed by them.

It is not easy for farmers to face the loess and turn their backs to the sky, and they encounter the shameless behavior of these people... It is outrageous to think about it.

Li Yu is the ultimate culprit!

"Master Kang, what are you thinking about?" Tang Qingyi asked curiously when Wang Kang didn't speak.

"he came……"

"who?"

"Li Yu!" Wang Kang stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go and meet our military official in Yangzhou City!"

He was smiling, but there was a coldness in his smile.

Hearing this, everyone was startled and hurriedly walked out of the house. They saw dust rising not far away, led by a blue cloth official sedan!

There were a group of soldiers on both sides of the sedan to support them. Judging from the uniforms they wore, they were from the Bing Yamen, and the leader was Cao Canjun from the Bing Yamen!

Riding in an official sedan, accompanied by officers and soldiers, it is so majestic!

It seems that Li Yu is planning to use his official position from the fifth rank to suppress him.

Wang Kang knew Li Yu's intention at a glance, but knowing what he had done and seeing his official position, he always felt it was extremely ironic.

Not long after, the blue cloth official sedan stopped outside the small courtyard of Tang Qingyi's house, surprising the onlookers again!

What's going on in the western suburbs today? Big figures are coming to this land of poor peasants one after another, especially the Old Tang family, which has become the focus!

The sedan stopped, and Cao Canjun hurriedly stepped forward to lift the curtain of the sedan, taking the lead in stepping out with a black-faced official boot, followed by Li Yu walking out of the sedan.

He wears a triangular official hat, a Xuanmian official uniform with a five-pin crown, green clothes, a copper fish charm, and a leather rhinoceros, giving him the appearance of an official.

Li Yu is over fifty years old, but his skin is white and well-maintained. He looks solemn and expressionless at the moment, showing great official authority!

There was silence all around. This is an official from the fifth rank. He is responsible for recording affairs and joining the military. He is in charge of Gong, Si Cang, Si Hu, Si Tian, ​​Si Bing, and Judiciary. Si Shi Qi Cao joins the army and holds great power in Yangzhou City!

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, I was beaten!"

At this time, Sun Yuanwai screamed in agony. He did not stand up, but crawled to Li Yu's side and cried bitterly!

"Brother-in-law, I'm so miserable!"

"Look at what that prodigal son did to me. My sister would be so distressed if she saw this!"

"Brother-in-law, you have to make the decision for me!"

Member Sun's body was covered with dust, his robes were in tatters and his face was swollen like a pig's head. He looked really pitiful as he was crying and shouting at the moment!

Li Yu's pupils shrank when he saw it. It's one thing to hear someone explain it, but it's another thing to see it with your own eyes. This prodigal son really dares to commit such a murderous attack!

Li Yu couldn't help gritting his teeth. This was not a slap on Mr. Sun again, this was a slap on his face!

Arrogant! Really too arrogant!

"Get up, why are you crying and crying!" Li Yu shouted: "There are no brothers-in-law here, only the recorders of Yangzhou City join the military!"

He said this to avoid suspicion, and secondly to emphasize his identity. He was a court official!

Use your status to oppress others!

"Hey, Mr. Li is finally here. I have been waiting for you here for a long time!" At this time, Wang Kang walked over with a smile.

"Why don't you salute me first when you see me?" Li Yu looked at Wang Kang approaching and said in a deep voice with anger flashing in his eyes.

This is going to give me some power!

Wang Kang knew his intention as soon as his eyes turned.

He said casually: "Why should I salute you?"

"The title that Emperor Zhao only granted you was your father's," Li Yu snorted coldly, "and you are just an idiot. Why don't you salute first because you have no merit? Are you going to commit the following crime?"

Li Yu's voice was deep and majestic, and he was wearing neat official uniforms, which made this majesty even more serious. This is the official majesty that can only be developed by being in a high position for a long time.

If it were ordinary people, they would probably fall to their knees directly after just one drink.

But he was facing Wang Kang and didn't care at all.

Instead, he said with a relaxed face: "Everything you said is right, but you are wrong about one thing. Who stipulates that you must salute when you see an official?"

"You..." Li Yu paused for a moment. It is an unwritten rule for civilians to salute an official. What is unwritten is not accurate.

It's just a common practice. Any citizen who is not afraid of officials will be trembling when they see them, so they will naturally salute.

"Hey, hey," seeing Li Yu's look, Wang Kang knew that he had nothing to say. If you play this trick with me, you are still far behind.

Seeing Wang Kang's proud smile, Li Yu's face darkened and he said: "Then let me ask you, as the son of an earl and a noble, you instigated your subordinates to commit murder and maliciously beat others, what crime should you be guilty of!"

"Since Mr. Li mentioned this," Wang Kang's expression turned cold, "I also have a few questions to ask Mr. Li!"
