There were no fewer than a hundred men who followed behind the old village. Everyone held hoes, shovels and other farm tools, blocked the entrance of the village and glared at the Li family.
"Whoever dares to move Duke Li's tomb, we'll fight with him in Dingzhou village!"
"Get out! You are not welcome in Dingzhou village!"
"Li has moved away from the village. What are you doing back?"
"Li Gong's grave, who dares to move, I pinch and burst his eggs!"
Li was surprised by the sudden appearance of the farmers. He didn't expect that the villagers of Dingzhou village would stand behind him and support themselves.
Although the Li clan originally belonged to this Dingzhou village, since the establishment of the Li Tang Dynasty, the Li family has moved out and become a big family in Huxian county.
How dare these villagers in Dingzhou village fight against Li?
Even the ancestral graves of the villagers in Dingzhou village were forced by Li to move away from the sunny hillside. Are they willing to stand up for their father now?
Just because Li Zhou helped them?
Li forgot to worry about the nose suddenly a little sour, this group of simple farmer men, is really beyond his expectation.
Seeing the crowd gathered around, Li clan leader stared: "old man Qian, are you going to die? Do you want to gather people to rebel?"
The old village was walking to Li forget worry. Lang Sheng said to Li's patriarch, "Li Gongsheng was kind to me in Zhoucun before his life. You want to bully the Li family and ask us if we agree!"
"It's turned upside down, you Tian Shirang, are you going to rebel?" clan leader Li looked at the ground with a pestle.
The elders also shouted: "presumptuous! I'm Li's family, but I'm a royal family. What do you field slaves want to do?"
"There are still people in the Tang Dynasty who dare to dance knives and guns at me. Do you want to be caught and cut off your head?"
"It doesn't matter. Li Zhou and his son have been expelled from my li clan. It's a matter of course to move the grave. Even if it breaks the sky, I'm Li. What do you want to do?"
Although Li's servant No. 100 came to see these strong men in front of him, Li's clan leader and elders estimated that they could not get any benefits from their own family, so they didn't want to do it, but wanted them to retreat in the face of difficulties.
Their words made Lao cunzheng and others confused for a moment. Indeed, as Li Shi said, Li Zhou's cemetery was in Li's ancestral grave after all, and they had no reason to stop Li's clan.
"Hum, don't talk so much nonsense. In short, you can't dig Li Gong's tombs today, or we'll fight with you!" old village Zheng was not ready to reason.
"OK, OK, I'll see if this world is Li Tang's or not! Li Gui, let people ride to the county yamen immediately and let Yang Ming's house take Yamen to deal with these unruly people!" the leader of the Li clan roared at Li Gui.
Li's servant, who got the order, immediately separated two people, beat a horse and rushed to the direction of the county.
Seeing that the Li clan went to report to the official, the villagers in Dingzhou village, including the old village, all showed hesitation.
However, no one retreated. They were all blocked at the entrance of the village and were in a stalemate with the people of the Li clan.
Knowing that there was a trend of popular uprising in Dingzhou village, Yang Zuo dared not neglect it. He led County Lieutenant Fang and three classes of Yamen servants to Dingzhou village.
To Li's surprise, Yang Zuo was accompanied by a middle-aged man in light Fei official clothes, which means that this is a five grade official.
Li forgot to worry about who the suddenly appeared five grade officials were, so he was not in a hurry to speak.
Yang Zuan actually knows what he is doing today, but since Li forgets worry and doesn't use his "killer mace", he has the right to know nothing.
Anyway, for Li's family in Huxian County, his parents are also extremely bored, but he can't attack because of Li's paternal identity.
The only thing that makes him feel a little uneasy today is the five grade official around him, Cui magistrate of Chang'an County.
Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, is divided into two counties: East and West Chang'an and Wannian. The county heads of the two counties are middle-level officials on the top five grades. This is like the mayor of the later imperial capital of China. Although he is also a mayor, his level is equivalent to that of a provincial governor.
The Huxian county where Yang Zuan works is under the jurisdiction of Chang'an County, that is to say, the county magistrate Cui is the immediate boss of the seven grade county magistrate Yang Zuan.
Today, the county magistrate Cui happened to be visiting Huxian county. While talking with Yang Zuo, he heard that Li's clan newspaper official said there was trouble making among the people, so he hurried to follow him.
"This is Cui Ming's residence in Chang'an County. Xiao Lang and Gong Li of the Li family come to see the ceremony quickly." Yang Zuo first introduced Cui county magistrate to Li forgetful worry and Li's elders.
He also introduced Li forget worry to Cui county magistrate: "Cui Mingfu, this is the head of Li's clan. That Xiaolang is Xiaolang of Li family and the son of Li Zhou and Li Gong."
After hearing Yang Zuo's explanation, the county magistrate Cui brightened his eyes and arched his hands at the head of the Li family: "but the old head of the Li family in Huxian county?"
"It's me. I've seen Cui Ming's house." seeing the five grade official's friendly attitude, Li clan leader also smiled and saluted him.
"Li Gong doesn't need to be polite. The Li family in Huxian county is my Tang clan. Why be so polite, ha ha." county magistrate Cui obviously knew the background of the Li family in Huxian county and directly expressed his attitude.
For Li forgetting to worry, county magistrate Cui didn't even lift his eyelids.
Li Zhou naturally knows, but Li Zhou has died. The so-called people walk in the cold tea. He is not interested in making friends with Li forget worry, a young man.
County Magistrate Cui's attitude made Li forget worry and Yang Zuo flash a haze on their faces. It seems that county magistrate Cui is going to be a bad thing.
The magistrate of Chang'an County is a collateral member of the Cui family in Qinghe, one of the five surnames and seven outlooks of the Tang Dynasty. His name is Cui Luo.
He was an official with average reputation, but because he was born in Cui's collateral family, he also borrowed Cui's light and sat in the position of magistrate of Chang'an County.
Yang Zuan has a general relationship with Cui Luo. Although Cui Luo is his boss, Yang Zuan is not afraid of him. After all, his teacher is Yu Shinan. The reason why Yang Zuan is now the head of Huxian county is actually a kind of political gilding.
One year later, as soon as his term of office expires, Yang Zui will make great progress and enter the court.
Yang Zuo silently looked at Cui Luo, who was talking and laughing with leader Li, and said in his heart that if Cui Luo wanted to pull off the frame today, he would have to fight this man.
After all, Li Lianyou is a "friend who forgets his years" valued by teacher Yu Shinan. How can Cui luocui be bullied?
"Li Gong, what's the matter today? It's so noisy?" Yang Zui first asked Li's patriarch about the reason.
"Please invite Yang Mingfu to come here today, but it's because the Diao people in Dingzhou village gathered together to make trouble." Li's clan leader directly told Diao.
Before Yang Zuan spoke, Cui Zhuo spoke first: "sure enough, there are evil people in poor mountains and rivers! Yang Mingfu, you have such evil people under your rule. You have to be well disciplined!"
His words made Yang Zui and Li forget their worries. They couldn't help scolding their mother in their hearts.
Before you ask anything, you first define the villagers of Dingzhou village as Diao min. do you dare to be partial?
