After Li Yanzhi returned home, he waited for news of Yanping changing the sky every day. But soon he discovered that he was still naive.

No news, nothing!

Whether it is Yu Santian or his minions, they have never moved!

If it were someone else, Li Yanzhi might have suspected that the man was corrupt and bought up, just like the magistrate of Youxi. But Li Yanzhi still has a little confidence in Xu Jie, not because he believes in Xu Jie's integrity, but because he thinks that Xu Jie is a person who is unwilling to be lonely. A person who was denounced to Yanping, a place where birds do not shit and is "gratitude for the emperor" in his heart, which is definitely not the small profits of Youxi, but must be aspiring to the sky!

"Are he still waiting? Still enduring?" Li Yan felt that this was also possible. The so-called plan and then act - isn't he the same?

But soon, he realized that this was not the case!

That morning, when Li Yanzhi's mother opened the door, she suddenly found two dead pigs piled outside the door - their pigs! She screamed in shock! It was not the scream of a little girl from later generations who saw two cute little animals dead, but the scream of a peasant woman who found her hard work for several months!

"The child's father! The child's father! Come out quickly, come out quickly!"

The whole family woke up.

The pigs are indeed their pigs. Not only are there pigs, but there are chickens and ducks. There are two pigs and four chickens and ducks. At first glance, it looks like two adults and four children, which happens to be a family of six! The six poultry and livestock were cut and bleeding, and blood was oozing all over the floor. Li Zhi occasionally looked back and shouted, "There are words on our door!" He had already recognized a few words with his brother's teachings, and of course he was not a child prodigy like Li Yanzhi!

When Li Yan looked back, he saw that blood was used on the walls on both sides of the door - probably pig, chicken, and duck blood - with two lines of words written: Don’t tell me that you don’t know, unless you do it yourself. There is also a horizontal draft above: Be careful of the dog’s life!

When Li Dashu and his wife were still feeling distressed for the pig that had not yet fully grown, Li Yanzhi's heart had already sunk!

"They know! They must have known!"

In other words, Xu Jie may have already taken action, but from the fact that Yu Santian is still sitting in Youxi County, although Xu Jie took action, he did not shake him down! This force turned out to be much stronger than he thought! Even Xu Jie couldn't deal with them!

However, it seems that Xu Jie did not lose all, otherwise the one who died today would not be six poultry and livestock, but the entire Li family!

"well--"

Li Yan sighed and went back to study. He waited for two more days, but there was no news at all, so he could no longer sit still.

"Mr. Xu asked me not to ask about this matter that day because he was worried that if the secret was leaked, I would be cheated. But now it seems that the secret has been leaked. I still have to go and see, maybe it can help."

However, he didn't dare to go to find Xu Jie, but accompanied by Li Gang, he went to Nanping to visit Zheng Qingyun.

Zheng Qingyun once came to his house. As a junior, he should come to visit him again. Zheng Qingyun is in his forties this year, but he is still angry at the age of 40! When he was discussing the ceremony, he had not dissipated his temper because he was fighting against the emperor. After hearing about the experience of the Li family, he was so angry that he cursed, saying that he wanted to help him stand out and give his family justice.

Li Yan said straight: "How can I return the justice of my family to the Yanping Mansion to justice!"

Zheng Qingyun couldn't help but feel moved and said to himself: "I don't want you, a little child, to have such a mind! This is a hundred times more expensive than doing several poems! No wonder Huating (Xu Jie) looks down on you so much!"

He had a lot of eyes for Li Yanzhi before, and most of it was because of Xu Jie's request. At this point, Fang really liked the boy, but sighed, "Huating has nothing to do with him!"

It turned out that after Li Yanzhi left that day, Xu Jie convened his subordinates to discuss countermeasures. After he arrived in Yanping, he had "cut off hundreds of cases a day and cleared up the accumulated problems alone". He handled the old cases and old cases that our government had accumulated for many years, established a huge reputation, and cleared out a group of evil officials who promoted the government office, establishing his authority in Yanping! For this reason, the officials and private forces of Yanping were very afraid of him and did not dare to easily stroke his tiger beard! Even Li Yanzhi, who was protected by him, dared not act rashly! Yu Santian and others made up their minds to slowly punish the Li family after Xu Jie left office!

But even so, Xu Jie still encountered an unsolvable obstacle in investigating theft of mines! Any officials at all levels in Yanping Prefecture, who have no collusion with the mine thieves? Who has never received filial piety? Receive money and eliminate disasters for others. The officialdom is also a disguised market economy! Moreover, Xu Jie wants to clear up the accumulated problems of mines, and in the long run, he wants to cut off the financial paths of officials of all levels! So in this matter, no one is willing to retreat because of the majesty established by Xu Jie before!

It is: if you take a step back at this time, you will have no way to make money in the future!

But Xu Jie's status was there, and it was legitimate to do this. Even the prefect was not good at suppressing him in person, so everyone started another magic weapon in the officialdom: drag! We can't afford to mess with you, drag you to death! When you leave office, everyone cleans up each other! Want to investigate? Oh, okay, check there is no evidence. Want to arrest people? Who should be arrested without evidence? Xu Jie wants to do other things, and he can't find someone to execute them to do it! Although he is the judicial officer of our government and has the Ming Dynasty law on hand, the Ming Dynasty law that no one enforces is no different from a pile of waste paper!

In short, from the promotion office to the prefectural office, to the county office at all levels, and even to the Lijia and the villagers, everyone was tied to a chain of interests and was facing Xu Jie! Xu Jie's orders could not be issued, just like a person who had only one brain and a mouth, but his hands and feet were paralyzed, and he could not do anything he wanted!

When Zheng Qingyun talked about this to Li Yanzhi, he was very angry, but Li Yanzhi was already mentally prepared when he came here. At this time, he was not angry. He just thought: "Look at this situation, what is the difference between this situation and five hundred years later? After five hundred years of changes in the era, especially after the two major damages after the spread of the west and the east, this evil tumor can still survive, which shows how tenacious it is! It seems that I really have to do something in this era and change my methods!"

Li Yanzhi didn't know that Xu Jie's state of thought at this moment was surprisingly similar to his! The latter lived for thirty years and read the books of sages for more than twenty years, but only today he deeply experienced the true meaning of Confucius's words: "If the Tao does not work, I know it!" But in the real world where the Tao does not work, how should an ambition person face it?

"Why is it beneficial to the world when you know the truth in emptiness?" Xu Jie knocked on the file in the official office and murmured to himself: "Learn things and learning everything, and learning politics and learning. Only in this way can we integrate knowledge and action!"

"We must find another kind of power!" When saying goodbye to Zheng Qingyun, Li Yan thought to himself: "There is no way out if you don't come from your career, but relying solely on Shilin itself, this court will not be able to subvert itself in any case!"
