The next day, before dawn, Li Yanqing and Li Zhen set off. When Li Zhen came, they rode a donkey, and the speed was too slow. Li Yanqing lent Li Zhen the charcoal horse he bought to Li Zhen for foot strength. The two of them rode their horses all the way and headed towards Lushan Town.

At noon, Li Yanqing and Li Zhen arrived in Lushan Town. As the New Year is approaching, Lushan Town is also quite lively. The streets are filled with various stalls selling New Year’s goods, including chickens, ducks, fish, rabbits, deer, dried meat, and various dried fruits, as well as cloth, silk, silver and copper jewelry, various door talismans and couplets, etc.

Children run from time to time on the official road. Li Yanqing and Li Zhen had to turn over and get off the horse and walk slowly. There are still five miles away from Xiaohonglin. Lushan Town generally doesn't know what happened there. Although Lushan Town is very calm, Li Zhen is very anxious. He is afraid that there will be another armed fight last night.

"Brother Qing!"

Suddenly someone shouted beside him. When Li Yanqing turned around, he saw Aunt Gu San setting up a stall to sell chickens and ducks on the roadside. Li Yanqing hurriedly stepped forward and smiled, "Aunt San's business is okay, right?"

"It's okay!"

Aunt Gu San smiled and said, "Your father said you were going to the capital, why haven't you left yet?"

"It's until the end of next month!"

Gu San's eldest son Gu Tiezhu has been taken to the capital by Li Daqi to make a living, so Aunt Gu San's family is also particularly enthusiastic about Li Yanqing. When she saw Li Zhen, she was afraid that Li Yanqing would be involved in right and wrong, so she pulled Li Yanqing aside and whispered: "You are still young, don't participate in armed battles. This is the adult's business. They will solve it themselves. If you are not careful, someone will die!"

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Third! I'm not here to fight."

"Brother Qing is a scholar and understands the truth. With you here, the Li family will not suffer any further."

At this time, Li Yanqing saw Li Zhen talking to a tribe member, so he said goodbye to Aunt Gu San and brought his horse to Li Zhen. Li Zhen said to him: "The Luo County Magistrate came yesterday. It was Zhang Junbao who sent someone to report the case. The county Magistrate proposed a plan to divide the land into two sides. The Zhang family was 70% and the Li family was 30% of. We firmly disagree. County Magistrate Luo asked us to negotiate and resolve the problem by ourselves. He left a few yamen runners and left."

Li Yanqing sneered, "I'm afraid it's not about reporting the case, but about finding the backend to warn us!"

Li Zhen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't understand this. If this was the case, things would be troublesome. With the support of the Zhang family, how could they be the opponent?

He looked at Li Yanqing anxiously, and Li Yanqing said calmly: "Don't be anxious first, third uncle, gather all the tribesmen of Li Wencun and Qianshan Village. Let's discuss countermeasures together. You must pinch your fists tightly before you can go to the outside world."

There was a strong confidence in Li Yanqing's calm tone. Li Zhen was already in a state of silence and nodded quickly and said, "I'll go and notify me now!"

As soon as he turned around and was about to leave, Li Yanqing called him again, "Don't notify Li Daguang for the time being."

Li Zhen was surprised, "Is there any problem with Daguang?"

"It's not that he has a problem. His position has always been unstable. It's better to be careful."

Li Zhen knew that Li Yanqing was right. Li Daguang had been attracted by Li Wengui. Every time everyone accused Li Wengui of discussing, he would try every means to excuse Li Wengui. With this person here, Li Wengui would know no matter what they did.

.........

Half an hour later, dozens of tribe members gathered at Li Yanqing's home. There were 21 Li clan members in Liwen Village and 7 households in Qianshan Village, which totaled 28 households.

In the past few days, everyone was stunned by Zhang Junbao's blow. Except for Li Dayin who was extremely angry because of his son's death, everyone else was in a heavy mood and lacked confidence. The yard was full of people and no one spoke. The atmosphere seemed a bit dull and depressing.

However, one thousand acres of land was thrown away in vain, and no one was willing to accept it. So when Li Yanqing stepped forward to fight for the rights and interests of everyone, everyone had another glimmer of hope and rushed to Li Yanqing's home.

Li Yanqing stood on the wooden platform and said to everyone: "Dear uncles and brothers, please listen to Yanqing's words!"

Everyone looked up at Li Yanqing, and Li Yanqing said calmly: "This land incident did not happen suddenly. In fact, Li Wengui has been planning for a long time. There are two large parts of the family property of the Li family, one is an industry, including inns, taverns, shops and fleets. This part has always been controlled by Li Wengui, and is nominally a family property. But what benefits have you enjoyed over the years?"

Li Yanqing's words aroused everyone's emotions. Li Dayin said angrily: "Yanqing is right. According to the clan rules, children in the clan go to school, support the elderly, and gatherings of tribes, festivals, etc. should allocate money from clan property. However, the clan property only uses the sacrifices of ancestors and there is no subsidy for clan members. Those industries are shared by clan members in name, but in fact they have become the private property of Li Wengui and several Lushanfang clans!"

Li Dayin was originally a supporter of Li Wengui, but after his son was beaten to death by Zhang Junbao, he hated Li Wengui to the core. If Li Wengui had not sold the land to Zhang Junbao privately, how could his son die?

Li Zhen also stood up and said, "Yanqing is right. Songhefang just doesn't like this and wants to become independent. The old patriarch assigned more than 800 acres of land in Songhe Village to them. Li Wengui has quarreled with the old patriarch many times about this matter!"

The tribe members in the yard were immediately talking. Over the years, they have not enjoyed any benefits of tribe production. They don’t even know how many industries the family has? But what they are most concerned about at the moment is not how many industries there are in the county, but fertile land.

When everyone heard that the old patriarch had already allocated more than 800 acres of land in Songhe Village to Songhe House, everyone was immediately excited. There were less than twenty households in Songhe House, and on average, each family could be divided into more than 40 acres of fertile land. What a huge property.

"Please be quiet, everyone!"

Li Yayanqing shouted three times, and everyone gradually became quiet. Li Yanqing continued: "A very important reason why Li Wengui wants to be the patriarch is to seek the land of the family. I went to the county last night to inquire. The ten hectares of fertile land in Xiaohonglin were not transferred to Zhang Junbao because the fertile land was still under the name of the old patriarch, and Li Wengui had no right to transfer it. Seeing that the New Year's tribe festival was coming, Li Wengui was afraid that Li Wencun and Qianshan Village would follow Songhe Village and establish themselves and lose Xiaohonglin's land, so he privately reached a sale agreement with Zhang Junbao and sold our land."

"Kill this dog thief Li Wengui to death!"

Someone roared angrily, and everyone yelled indignation. Everyone pointed the finger of hatred at Li Wengui. This was Li Yanqing's purpose. He wanted to take this opportunity to deal with Li Wengui, and first of all, he would get unanimous support from the tribesmen of Li Wencun and Qianshan Village.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and several tribe members sitting at the door stood up and took a few steps back in horror. They saw more than a dozen people walking in from outside. The person in front was a middle-aged man, tall and fat, wearing a thick leather jacket, and a face full of greasy face. It was Zhang Junbao, and the dozen people behind were all young people of the Zhang family.

The tribe members in the yard stood up one after another, and Li Dayin's eyes suddenly turned red and he shouted, "Give my son my life back!"

He picked up the stool and was about to pounce on him. The person next to him hurriedly grabbed him. At this time, Li Yanqing walked up and said coldly: "Master Zhang came uninvited, what's the point?"

Zhang Junbao laughed dryly and said, "I heard that Li Jieyuan is back, and the Li family finally has a person who knows the general, so I'll talk about it."

Li Yanqing waved his hand to stop the angry scolding of the tribe members behind him and said to Zhang Junbao: "What do you want to talk about by Mr. Zhang?"

"That's it!" Zhang Junbao looked at the Li clan members all over the yard, "I'm afraid this is not a place to speak."

Li Yanqing said lightly: "For the sake of Zhang Yuanwai's safety, it is best to say it here. I think there is anything you should say openly. Whether you accept it or not, at least there will be no misunderstandings, right!"

"Haha! Li Jieyuan is really good at speaking. Since that's the case, I'll just say it."

Zhang Junbao took out a contract from his arms and Yang Yang said to Li Yanqing: "This is a contract signed by me and your patriarch. I have bought the ten hectares of fertile land in Xiaohonglin for five jin per acre. Both parties have signed and stamped. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go to Li Wengui, but it has nothing to do with me, Zhang Junbao, and you can't stop me from measuring the land and building a house. I don't want the misfortune to happen again the night before yesterday, but if you dare to stop me, I really can't guarantee your personal safety."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yanqing took the contract from him, and was extremely fast. Zhang Junbao was caught off guard and was shocked and shouted: "Give it back to me!"

Li Yanqing ignored him, looked through the contract, and turned back to the clan and said to the clan: "This contract is a land sale contract signed by Li Wengui and Zhang Junbao two months ago, but I want to tell you, first, the land is not Li Wengui's personal property, and he has no right to sell it; second, the land deed has not been replaced by the government, and the land of Xiaohonglin still belongs to us. This contract is just a few pieces of waste paper, and it has no meaning at all!"

He tore the contract into pieces a few times, threw it to Zhang Junbao, and scolded him angrily: "Get out of here, you are not welcome here!"

Zhang Junbao was almost mad at the rage. He stomped his feet hard, "If you don't want toast, you can just wait and see!"
