The next morning, in Taiyuan, a village near the Yangtze River, was burned all night, and the whole village was burned in the fire. Zhou Yi received the news in the middle of the night and hurried over, but the county town was more than 20 miles away from the village downstream. When he arrived here, it was already dawn, and the village downstream also turned into ashes in the fire, and only a group of village names were here.

Walking over, with more than 20 soldiers, Zhou Yi pushed the crowd away and looked at more than a dozen women sitting on the ground with a dull face, as if they were holding something in their hands. Zhou Yi walked over, but the next moment, when he walked in and saw what was in the hands of these dozen women, his eyes suddenly turned red. More than a dozen women, each of them had a headless corpse, and there were heads next to the headless corpse, all of which were children, including men and women, but most of them were about seven to ten years old, and most of them were about seven to ten years old, and they were only half-aged. They were just ignorant and sensible, but at this moment, they all became cold corpses and were cruelly beheaded!

"Who did it!?"

A roar like a beast came from Zhou Yi's mouth. His eyes turned red. He was not from Taiyuan, but from the original Jin people. Jin was unified and all regions were in urgent need of manpower. He was arranged to serve as the magistrate here. He had been busy confiscating the land during this period, but those aristocratic families did not cooperate much, which made him a little anxious. He hadn't thought of a good idea. Then he heard bad news in the middle of the night that a village was burned. He rushed over quickly. Unexpectedly, what he saw would be like, not only burning the village, but also headless corpses of more than a dozen children.

"Who did it, tell me, who did it, I'm going to chop his head, who is it?"

Zhou Yi's eyes were red. It was not that he had seen dead people before, but the scene in front of him was inhumane. This was a child, but he had not experienced the world well, but he had already died here and was beheaded. It was cruel. Even if Zhou Yi thought he was very good at heart, he couldn't help but murderous intent in his heart. An uncontrollable fire rose.

He never expected that at this moment when Jin State unified the world, there were still people who dared to set fire and kill people, and they attacked half-aged children with such cruel methods, which was simply inhumane. Behind Zhou Yi, the faces of the more than 20 soldiers were suddenly ugly. Most of these soldiers were arranged by the army of Jin State. However, next to Zhou Yi, there was a middle-aged scholar dressed in his eyes. Seeing this scene, he showed a hint of ridicule in his eyes, as if mocking. This was a civil servant under Zhou Yi, but it was not transferred from Jin State, but an official here. The world was unified and Jin State had limited staff. Except for a few officials transferred from Jin State, many of them were originally local.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Zhou Yi's eyes were a little red, and he felt like a sip of fire was about to spit out. He didn't expect such a thing to happen within his jurisdiction. Moreover, it was the child who had the accident. His methods were so cruel that he tried to suppress his emotions. Zhou Yi looked at the villagers next to him, trying to figure out the things he had bought, but the next moment, the reactions of many villagers made him stunned.

"Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Kneeling sounds, and the oldest among the villagers, who looked white-haired and white, walked to Zhou Yi and knelt down. Then, there were another sound of sounds, and the names of the surrounding villages also knelt down one after another.

"Mr. Zhou, please let us go. We don't want the land anymore. We are just ordinary people. We don't want the land anymore. We just want to live a peaceful life."

"What?"

Zhou Yi stood there on the spot, feeling like he was thundering. He thought about the possibilities that these villagers had spoken, but he didn't expect that this would be the case.

"Mr. Zhou, I know that the court has a kind intention. I want to give us land and let us live a good life, but we really can't afford it." Another old man who looked over sixty years old spoke. After saying that, he looked at the headless corpse held by more than a dozen women: "We really can't afford it. Don't let the children suffer anymore. They are all young, but they are so young, just... oh..."

Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Mr. Zhou, we really don't want land anymore, we don't want anything. Please, let us go." "Woo woo..."

Someone spoke, some people cried, and Zhou Yi stood there suddenly, his heart was pulled hard by something. He didn't know what to say for a moment, and looked at the dozen or so women holding headless corpses, with more than a dozen small bodies, all of which were half-old children, but they were all cut down at this moment.

"Aristocratic family, I, Zhou Yi, don't kill you, and I swear not to be a human being!"

Zhou Yi was ruthless. For the first time, he hated the aristocratic family so much. The civil servant behind Zhou Yi changed his face when he heard Zhou Yi's words and said in a deep voice.

"Sir, I think you should not take care of this matter too much. These people say they don't want land anymore. I think they should persuade the court not to implement land policies anymore. After all, what kind of aristocratic families do these lands belong to?"

The civil servant spoke, and as he spoke, a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes. He was a member of aristocratic family, so he naturally stood on the side of the aristocratic family and was completely disdainful of Zhou Yi's ruthless words. In his opinion, the Central Plains family was deeply rooted. As long as Ning Jinzhi wanted to develop the world well and peace in the world, he had to compromise with the aristocratic family. As for the downstream village, it was just a small warning from the aristocratic family to the court.

The civil servant looked at Zhou Yi, with a hint of arrogance in his expression, but the next moment, his face was stiff!

"Ye...Puff!"

The sharp blade was unsheathed, Zhou Yi turned around and held the long sword on the waist of a soldier beside him, dragging it out and slashing a cold light. The next moment, a blood mark appeared on the civil servant's neck, and then, bright red blood spurted out like a stream of water, and his throat was cut off by Zhou Yi, and his throat was sealed with one knife!

"Ho...Hoho..."

The civil servant pointed at Zhou Yi, his eyes wide open, full of incredible expressions, his mouth opened, and he wanted to speak, but there was a vague sound. The next moment, the civil servant fell to the ground with a sudden death. This scene happened very suddenly. The soldiers around Zhou Yi did not react, and the village names were even scared to stay where they were.

"Come, come back to the yamen and transfer people to help the famous generals of the village to rebuild the village. The court will all provide supplies for the lost things. He Cun and I will return to the yamen and write letters to pass the news here to Your Majesty."

Zhou Yi's face looked a little ugly, and he just glanced at the civil servant who was lying on the ground. This civil servant was from a family in Taiyuan. He had known for a long time that this civil servant had been determined to stop him for a while. He had long had no good feelings for this civil servant. What the civil servant said just now directly made him murderous intent.

After taking another look at the tragic situation in the village and the dozen petite headless corpses, Zhou Yi's eyes couldn't help but be full of resentment-

"All these Central Plains families deserve to die!"

....................................................

"The head of the family, the downstream village was burned and more than a dozen children were killed. Is it the Zhang family's people who took action?" Taiyuan, Li family, a housekeeper reported to Li Chunhui.

"Oh, did the Zhang family move? It's good to use this to explore the attitude of the court and show the court the determination of our Central Plains family, so that Ning Jinzhi knows that our Central Plains family is not easy to knead. Don't he love the people as much as his son? I want to see how he protects these untouchables." Li Chun smiled and didn't care about this. In his opinion, it would be better to die a few untouchables than to die a few dogs at home.

"Taiyuan, Zhang family, downstream village, is this what the Li family means?"

Lingnan, Song family, and Song Qing looked at his subordinates' information - the Zhang family sent people to burn down the downstream villages and kill fourteen children.

Looking at the letter in his hand for a few seconds, Song Yu directly kneaded the newly built building into a ball of waste paper, while Song Yu and Butler Song next to him looked at Song Qing.

"The Zhang family, Li family, these people really think they are not dying fast enough. They dare to provoke His Majesty at this time."

"Father said that Your Majesty will use this time to deal with the Zhang family." Song Yu looked at Song Qing after hearing this.

"Zhang Family, do you think that Your Majesty will only deal with the Zhang family? These people who are obsessed with interests, wait. After this incident, it would be good that the Central Plains family would be left with one layer." Song Qing snorted coldly. Those families were obsessed with interests and thought Ning Caichen would compromise, but he knew very well that he could guarantee that the methods and courage of the king in the court today would be a devastating disaster for the Central Plains family this time.

People are the most important thing to know. This has always been Song Qing's point of view. He knew very well that the current Central Plains family and Ning Caichen had no qualifications to wrestle the arm, so he had no intention of opposing the court and publicizing the retreat to the outside world. However, at this moment, she felt that just being retreated to the outside world was not enough, and the court had to know his attitude. As soon as he thought of this, he turned to look at Zhou Yu next to him-
