The male members of the Zhao family were quickly taken to prison and then exiled on another day. The female relatives did not have to worry about not having a place to live. Although the Zhao family's property was confiscated, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, so there was still a house for resettlement.
The case came to an end soon, but the impact on Mingzhou City has just begun. Not to mention that ordinary people have more to talk about after dinner, which shows that the powerful powerful people in the state capital are shocked.
Unrivaled.
Unexpectedly, Magistrate Cui was really merciless in his actions. This time he was dealing with the Zhao family, but why wasn't he warning them? If his family was caught, they would probably fall into the same trap.
Same fate.
The Zhao family cannot survive under the protection of Prince Ping and Prince Luo, but what about them? Can the power behind them make Governor Cui fear them?
In the past few days, the exchanges between the major families in Mingzhou Prefecture have suddenly become closer. Some people are panic-stricken, but others are sad and plan to strike first.

Therefore, the Yamen decided to redo the survey and statistics. It is hoped that each household can report truthfully and make corrections. Violators will bear the consequences.
This decree relaxed the tense atmosphere in the Mingzhou government. For some forces who planned to resist stubbornly, this decree was just a way to stop the boiling water. The conflict of positions and interests doomed the two sides to irreconcilable conflicts. Just look at it.
Just wait until it breaks out.
But for some forces, this decree is the gospel of survival from desperate situations. They are afraid of Magistrate Cui, or the thunderous methods of the court, and plan to confess and be lenient. But because they have made a lie before, they dare not
He had taken some action, and now that he finally had the chance to step down, he did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately went to the Yamen to explain the situation.
As a result, many common people who are keen on information have noticed the changes. Recently, several wealthy families have begun to release slaves and return to their hometowns. Tenants have been registered, and even the annual land tax paid is several percent less than before... This series of practices is like a real one.
A great virtuous man who put down his butcher's knife and became a Buddha immediately.
The reputations of these powerful families are gradually improving. Although there is no immediate effect, at least there have been changes. As for other families that have not seen any movement, the people below have begun to feel uneasy.
In the eyes of many people in power today, the tenants and even the common people are nothing more than ants to them. It doesn’t matter what they think. They will always give in and compromise under power. As the master and the person in power, as long as we continue to
Climbing up, those faint sounds are nothing to be afraid of.
The law of the jungle, where the jungle prevails over the strong, remains obsolete in any era.
But there is also an eternal saying - water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. The power of the people is infinite. Our party has proved this truth with the fruits of the revolution. It dares to go against the will of the masses and commit acts of public outrage.
Exploiters will eventually suffer backlash.
I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light.
Nowadays, the life circumstances of the tenants who have surrendered to the family have been turned upside down. What will those who have experienced the same thing as them think? Will the tenants who pay a few cents more land tax than others every year be willing to accept it? Will they be willing to be exploited again?
