It turned out that this is a natural cave in Tiger Ridge, which was used as a rebel prison.
"We haven't broken any laws of the king, we just don't want to rebel." The cellmate next door explained.
"Actually, rebellion is nothing. Who told the court not to treat us as human beings, but because our ancestors are innocent people, this rebellion has ruined our ancestors, which is not good."
"Isn't it?" Xu Yin agreed without hearing what he said.
Pei Zhan stared at her, then shook his head slightly to signal her not to interrupt.
"There is no way to survive if you don't rebel." Another inmate replied.
"Look at what you said, it's so true!" After the daily wailing session, the inmates began to chat after get off work.
"There was a plague at the end of last year, and the medicinal materials were already scarce. The government forcibly confiscated them all. Instead, the pharmacist sold them for ten taels of silver. I won't buy them, and I will go up the mountain to pick them."
This is not a government, it's just a robber, Pei Zhan looked away.
I couldn't hold back the words as soon as I started, and people kept joining in: "That is, the government didn't control the plague, didn't control the price of medicine, but let the people who got the plague go around. It spread all over the city, and the whole Nanzhou was about to be infected. But the officials are not afraid, they have medicine. I will take the people of our village to hide in the mountains, or we will all be ruined."
"My daughter is a doctor in the town. She was conscripted to cure the plague. There was no news of her. I didn't know whether she was alive or dead. I went to the yamen gate to make a fuss. You see, her leg is crippled, and she will have nothing to eat for the rest of her life. Earn more than other beggars, hahahaha."
Xu Yin listened carefully.
In Xu Yin's heart, the government is also a bandit. Isn't she the one who has been harmed by the government until now?
Pei Zhan thought and patted Xu Yin's shoulder: "Stop listening, let's have a rest."
Unexpectedly, Xu Yin shook his head, and replied in the Bian Cang dialect that he learned at some time: "I want to listen to them blow their horns."
When the inmates heard what Xu Yin said, they immediately extended an olive branch to her: "Huh? Let's play together?"
The chat between inmates has not changed since ancient times: "How did you come in?"
Most of them are unwilling to rebel.
One person was surprised: "You are all like this, are you still unwilling to rebel?"
The others sighed: "It's only the current officials who say that the government is bad. Just change to another one. I don't believe that the emperor still treats us as human beings. There is no emperor who doesn't love his people. The emperor must be raped by traitors." Blindfolded."
"My son Han Chuang has been studying hard for many years. If one day he wins the first prize, he can speak for the common people!"
"I'm from here. The previous imperial court was not like this. I don't believe that the imperial court can become disrespectful in just a few decades."
Pei Zhan frowned.
"You all were arrested here for not rebelling. I am different." Only one person said, "I am a mountain dweller in Tiger Ridge. I actually rebelled, but they still arrested me."
"That means you will be arrested if you rebel or not?"
The mountain man stroked his hair: "Maybe seeing that I am too handsome, I am afraid that I will steal the limelight when I go out."
"Hammer, old peacock."
"Shameless."
The shell was blown away in a few blows. The inmates dispersed
Xu Yin was still looking at the legs of the uncle next door, Pei Zhan got up and turned back to the wall, closing his eyes.
He knows that the rich and powerful are arrogant and domineering, and he also knows that the government is corrupt and greedy, but he never thought that he would be so barbaric.
If what these people said was true, what kind of purgatory would Nanzhou be before the rebellion.
The common people are in dire straits, the emperor is certainly at fault, but his chief assistant father is the first to blame, and he has always naively believed that the songs and dances in various playbooks will bring peace, and he has not done his duty of persuading his father, so he cannot escape the blame.
Pei Zhan, Pei Zhan, you have sinned a lot!
"Lin Yu, are you okay?" Xu Yin stood behind him at some point and tugged on his sleeve quietly.
Pei Zhan opened his eyes, came back to his senses, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, are you tired? Do you want to go to a rest meeting?"
Xu Yin looked at him worriedly: "Don't listen to their bragging, what they say may not be true, just look at them laughing."
Pei Zhan shook his head.
Xu Yin grabbed his hand: "Don't think too much. We agreed, and it will get better and better in the future."
Pei Zhan looked down at her hand, and suddenly asked: "Xu Yin, have you ever thought about changing the world?"Xu Yin's eyes widened in surprise: "Don't talk nonsense, how can you say such things? You are"
Pei Zhan lowered his head: "From top to bottom, from Chaojing to Nanzhou, I can't find any reason not to think so."
Xu Yin shook his head hastily: "There is no reason, you are the reason!" (Remember the website of this website: www.hlnovel.com
