Said......” “哦？说……” Aaron shot the finger. 亚伦弹了弹手指。 „...... Tax Cao Toyojiro, worked for one's own interests under the guise of working for the public, increases the summer grain crops tax revenue...... then the place tax collector to urge in excess, but also killed the person!” “……税曹丰二郎,假公济私,增加了夏粮税收……然后地方税吏催逼过甚,还打死了人！” Tai Chong bows saying: „The Dadong Township countrymen are led by slow Changchun, carrying the coffin goes to the district to ask for the explanation...... this slow Changchun is former loosen distinguished talent, the matter mother extremely filial piety, the family/home poor, actually still upheld justice to present as a gift the gold/metal friend, is becomes famous in Qu Residence, some promise that can be counted on said, he also went to the county administration to submit a written statement, but does not know how to have the dispute with the yamen runner, suddenly died, some rumors said that is the yamen runner kills...... the countrymen therefore rebellion!” 太冲躬身道:“大东乡乡民由徐长春领头,抬棺去县中讨说法……这徐长春原本是前松秀才,事母极孝,家贫,却仍仗义赠金友人,在大曲府都是出了名的,有一诺千金之说,他本来也只是去县衙上书,但不知怎么与衙役起了争执,突然就死了,有传言说是衙役所杀……乡民因此暴动！” „Then the district soldiers set out the suppression...... to create the murder case, this matter disseminates the entire Xuzhou immediately, made the seething popular discontent!” “然后县兵就出动镇压……造成血案,此事立即传播整个徐州,令民怨沸腾！” ...... …… Aaron rubbed the forehead. 亚伦揉了揉眉心。 The district soldiers are Liujia Almighty Soldiers, unavoidably not too intelligence, or silly a point. 县兵都是六甲神兵,难免不太智能,或者说傻了一点。 However this cannot say that snare, facing the revolt, the feudal official army has not always suppressed. 不过这也不能说中了圈套,历来面对起义,官府军队就没有不镇压的。 Critical moment, must dare to kill people, can the quickest limit depress, avoids proliferating. 关键时刻,还是必须敢杀人,才能最快限度压下,避免扩散。 Now also disseminates, obviously has in the habitat to manage! 如今还传播开,显然是有人居中主持！ „In addition, the Toyojiro misgovernment, does no one discover and reports?” “除此之外,丰二郎乱政,就没有人发现并上报么？” Aaron looks suddenly to Tai Chong: „You and others read with are being the friendship of Imperial College of Supreme Learning living, did not say the help to cover up, but intentionally is the non- achievement, some?” 亚伦忽然看向太冲:“还是你等念在同为太学生之谊,不说帮忙遮掩,但故意不作为,还是有的吧？” „The lord forgives!” “道主恕罪！” This saying saying, Tai Chong knelt with other government officials, perspiration leave like the thick liquid. 这话一说,太冲跟其它官吏都跪了,一个个汗出如浆。 „This did not have the world......” “这还没得天下呢……” Aaron sighed. 亚伦叹息一声。 Does not need to examine knows, Toyojiro is inevitably loyal and devoted to Great Liang, before came to the war zone to serve as an official, originally had the consciousness of sacrificing the life. 不用审都知道,那丰二郎必然是对大梁忠心耿耿,之前来战区做官,本来就有豁出命的觉悟。 He can sacrifice the life for Great Liang, but does not hinder him to fish money for oneself. 他可以为大梁献出生命,但也不妨碍他为自己捞银子。 This will of the people was complex, wears said truly difficult. 这人心复杂,着实难说。 ‚However this is my archenemy!
