When Li Changsheng heard Qingying's question, he smiled evilly.

"If you are asking this, Sister Qingying, it means you care about me. I will be flattered. Even if I die, I will be able to rest in peace!"

Qingying: “…”

I heard this bastard Li Changsheng talking nonsense seriously here.

She immediately looked ashamed.

"Stop talking nonsense here and think things through before you act. Don't get into trouble and then ask me to clean up your mess!"

After saying this, Qingying turned and left.

He waved his sleeves, not a single cloud was taken away.

Looking at the empty room, Li Changsheng began to wonder if he was hallucinating because he stayed up late.

……

Bai Xue is very efficient in her work.

In just one night, she found most of the evidence that Li Changsheng wanted.

Li Changsheng glanced through it briefly and praised excitedly, "Bai Xue, well done!"

Hearing Li Changsheng's praise, Bai Xue felt inexplicably happy in her heart.

"Based solely on this, we can't convict these people for the time being. We need to dig deeper to find solid evidence!"

Li Changsheng shook his head and said, "No need!"

Bai Xue was stunned when she heard this.

"unnecessary?"

Li Changsheng did not answer, but played with the imperial sword casually.

Draw the sword out of its scabbard!

The sword tip flashed with cold light and was filled with murderous intent!

"With this sword, even if we only have a suspicion and no evidence, we, the Imperial City Division, can still arrest someone!"

"What's more, none of their butts are clean, they're all covered in shit!"

"If we drag all these people out and behead them, perhaps some of them will be innocent. But if we kill them one by one, there will definitely be many who slip through the net!"

Bai Xue carefully thought about the two sentences Li Changsheng said.

He looked at the imperial sword in his hand again.

I already understand it in my heart.

This is a desire to start a massacre!

After Li Changsheng made up his mind, he took the imperial sword and went straight to the county government office.

When County Magistrate Du saw Li Changsheng, he came over early in the morning and asked hurriedly:

"Li Jianjun, what happened again?"

Li Changsheng took out a topographic map and said, "County Magistrate Du, I plan to gather these dilapidated villages together to form a large village."

"All the surrounding land belongs to this village..."

Du Yuan came forward to take a look, his face showing embarrassment.

"General Li, this isn't a good idea. Those lands all have owners. Now that the bandit problem has been eradicated, they should naturally be returned to their original owners."

Li Changsheng asked: "Oh, who is the master?"

Du Yuan was startled when he heard this and said, "Whoever has the deed is the owner!"

Li Changsheng said, "Very good. Ask the owners of those fields to come to me with the land deeds."

"By the way, the deadline is only one day. After today, I won't acknowledge your responsibility anymore!"

Although Du Yuan didn't know what Li Changsheng was up to?

However, since the other party said so, he naturally had to notify everyone.

Otherwise, if there were any land disputes in the future, it would all be his fault as the county magistrate.

I heard that the county government wants us to take the title deed to claim the land.

Many officials, gentry and landlords were rummaging through their homes looking for land deeds, and were scrambling to go to the county government office to claim them.

By the afternoon, most of the important figures in the county had gathered at the county government office.

Du Yuan stepped forward and said, "General Li, everyone is almost here."

Li Changsheng got down from the armchair, pointed at the topographic map, and carefully explained his previous thoughts to the officials, gentry, and landlords present.

"Everyone, do you have any objection to my proposal?"

Hearing Li Changsheng's question, everyone present stared at each other in confusion.

After a long while, someone finally said:

"Master Military Supervisor, there are five hundred acres of fertile land on the left bank of the Shouyang River. They all belong to our Zhang family. I have the land deeds to prove it!"

While speaking, he also held the land deed and handed it to Li Changsheng to show that he was not lying.

Li Changsheng said, "Then please give me a favor and give up these 500 acres of fertile land to help the people who have suffered this disaster!"

When the landlord surnamed Zhang heard that he was asked to give up 500 acres of fertile land, he felt as if someone had cut his flesh, and his expression was extremely painful.

"Master Military Supervisor, there are dozens of people in our Zhang family, and we all rely on these hundreds of acres of fertile land to make a living!"

"If we use it to help the people, we in the Zhang family might starve."

Li Changsheng smiled and asked, "So, you don't intend to give me this face?"

Landlord Zhang looked embarrassed.

Don't know how to answer.

He had no choice but to look to Du Yuan for help.

At this time, Du Yuan was also confused. He had no idea what General Li was trying to do.

Without knowing the situation, he didn't dare to interrupt.

In order to avoid being angered by Li Jianjun again.

Thinking of this, he began to play deaf and dumb.

Landlord Zhang saw that Magistrate Du was unwilling to help smooth things over, so he forced a smile and said:

"Master Military Supervisor, how about this? For your sake, I intend to give you fifty acres of fertile land as a gift. What do you think?"

Li Changsheng laughed immediately after hearing this.

"Haha, do you think I'm asking for benefits from you?"

The landlord surnamed Zhang was frightened by Li Changsheng's sneer and shook his head repeatedly.

Li Changsheng smiled coldly again.

"So you're saying this: the reputation of this military inspector is only worth these fifty acres of good farmland?"

The landlord surnamed Zhang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and shook his head repeatedly to indicate that he had no such intention.

"Master Military Supervisor, this matter is of great importance. Please allow me to go back and discuss it with my family!"

Li Changsheng was very generous this time. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll give you two hours to discuss it properly. I want to hear an accurate answer before sunset!"

Hearing this, the landlord surnamed Zhang felt relieved. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurried home.

Li Changsheng asked the same question to everyone else.

With this landlord's proof, the answers from others were basically the same, saying that they would go home and discuss it.

However, after they left the county government office, no one returned home.

Instead, they gathered in the restaurant next to the county government office.

Discuss how to respond?

Landlord Zhang spoke first.

"What do you think Eunuch Li is up to by doing this?"

When the others heard this, they all started talking about it.

"Needless to say, he's definitely asking for benefits!"

"Asking for benefits? Are you interested in our land?"

"I don't think so. He's just a eunuch, far away in the palace, and he has no children to carry on his bloodline. What does he want with our land?"

"If he doesn't want land, then what does he want?"

"What else can I want? Silver, of course!"

"Well, even if we're unlucky, let's all chip in some silver and treat it as a gift to the Plague God!"
