Chapter Eighty-Three: The Fifty-Day Drought
"Stop, I'm Kuang Yue, the county lord of the Central Chu Empire, I don't think you want to live anymore. Kuang Yue saw that the situation was not right, and immediately put on his identity.
Liu Han was shocked when he heard Kuang Yue's self-declaration of identity.
He had already guessed that Kuang Yue's identity was extraordinary, and thought that she might be the beloved daughter of an important minister. But he never expected that Kuang Yue was the county lord of the dynasty and the sister of the current Emperor of Zhongchu, which was far beyond his imagination.
He unconsciously got closer to Kuang Yue, for fear that he would be hurt by this group of people.
"Hmph, you said that you are the county lord or the county lord, then I also said that I am the emperor, come here, take it for me, live or die. ”
The guards in the room replied in unison, "Yes." ”
"You ....." Kuang Yue was so angry by Pei Xian's words that she was furious.
Liu Han didn't expect that this group of people would be so bold, and when they heard that Kuang Yue was the lord of the dynasty, they didn't ignore it and were bold.
Immediately afterwards, everyone surrounded them violently, looking at the posture, they had to swallow the lives of Han Ming and the others.
Seeing that the other party was not good, Kuang Yue and the others immediately moved closer to Han Ming and put on a combat posture.
"Whoosh. ”
"Whoosh. ”
There were a few sounds of breaking the air in the stadium.
"Ah..... Yes. ”
Immediately after, screams erupted, and the entire mansion was filled with the sound of gold and iron.
Pei Xian saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately ordered: "Quickly, take down these people." ”
As soon as the guards received the order, they rushed forward.
"Stand back. Han Ming said.
Several people listened to Han Ming's words and immediately retreated behind Han Ming.
"Sword. ”
When Ye Die heard Han Ming's words, he immediately pulled out Han Ming's sword and passed it over.
Han Ming took the sword and stood in front of everyone.
He saw the guards rushing up, the battle qi in his body was running, and the condensed battle qi crossed from his hand to the sword, and the sword trembled slightly, exuding a fierce aura all over his body.
The guards rushed over with their weapons, Han Ming held the Ming Sword with his backhand, swept it with his hand, and in one look, all the guards were knocked away by the fierce sword qi, lying on the ground and life and death unknown.
Pei Xian and several people in the audience were frightened by Han Ming's move.
At this time, Yang Xu had also finished cleaning up the guards in the mansion, rushed up with the secret guards, and took Pei Xian down.
Pei Xian was tightly restrained, stunned in place and did not move, his eyes were glazed, and he knew that he was finished, so he gave up resistance.
After Yang Xu grabbed Pei Xian, he hurriedly walked up.
"My lord, my subordinates have finished cleaning the house. Then, he took out a booklet from his bosom and handed it to Han Ming.
"This is a book that his subordinates have found in his secret room. ”
Han Ming took the booklet, flipped through it casually, immediately closed it, and nodded at Yang Xu.
Then we searched carefully to see if we could find any other evidence. ”
"No. After answering, the crowd immediately dispersed and began to search the entire castle guard's mansion.
In the southwest of the Central Chu Empire, close to the Banlun Mountains, the sky is clear, and there is not a trace of clouds in sight.
There are thousands of acres of fertile land in the west, there are 10,000 acres of fertile land, lush vegetation, and the scenery is also very pleasant. However, because of the close proximity to the Banlun Mountain Range, the people are strong, and the people often clash over trivial matters, but on the whole, it is harmless, everything is within the control of the government, but this year, the situation is not very optimistic.
The sky in the land of Western Chu, the fiery red sun, has been hanging for fifty days, and the scorching sun shines so hot that the people on the earth can't open their eyes. Those shirtless men have long been restless in their hearts, and it seems that everyone is trapped in this hot cage and cannot break free.
In addition to the exhaustion of being scorched by the scorching sun, there is only a trace of impulse left in everyone's eyes, which lurks in the depths of everyone's heart.
Since the beginning of spring, this place has not seen a drop of water for 50 days, and most of the small rivers around here have been cut off, although hundreds of miles away is the largest river in Zhongchu - Henghe, but the distant water can't quench the thirst after all.
The people's drinking water is good, after all, there is well water in the ground, but the crops in the soil also have to drink water, and the well water is not enough for people to drink, let alone irrigate the crops.
Most of the land is barren, and because of the barren land, many people have no food to eat.
The people of Xichu, who are fierce in the people's customs, constantly make trouble in the local area and vent their restless emotions.
If there are troublemakers making trouble, the government will solve the matter, and some officials continue to appease the people, and indirectly open warehouses and release grain, barely maintaining law and order.
However, in some places, the officials were not so polite, and they all imprisoned those who caused trouble, not only beating the boards, but also parading the streets, as if this would make the emotionally unstable people afraid and dare not take action.
But this is the land of Western Chu, the people are fierce, it's okay not to do it, but once you do it, it will anger the people who are suffering, and the long-term barbaric rule has made the people angry, and the situation will be uncontrollable.
Within a few days, the phenomenon of chaotic people looting the government and looting the granary broke out in a certain place.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the people in various places who had long been unable to hold it back, began to riot one after another with the general trend, and through the guidance of well-intentioned people and bandits, they slowly gathered in piles, one in the east and one in the west, as if they had become a separatist force.
Syllable!
After Kuang Hua saw the folds presented by various places, he angrily threw them directly on the ground.
"Bastard, I have emphasized to them more than once that the people's grievances should be slowly smoothed out in a gentle way, so that those officials from all over the country can open warehouses and release grain. This group of people said that there was no food in the warehouse and could not be mobilized. It's a bastard, a bunch of moths, and I can't even command it. The order was sent to escort me back from all over the country where there was a rebellion, and the court governor's office gave me a good interrogation, and I wanted to see who had given them the courage. ”
"Your Majesty, according to the old ministers, this incompetent official must be arrested, but these disorderly people must also be suppressed. His Highness said an elderly minister.
Kuang Hua held his forehead, thought for a while, and said, "Send the guards stationed in various places to disperse these chaotic people, and don't let them gather together." Let the Black Flag Army in Linlun Town pacify the rebellious people, and in addition, call back the commander of Han, he has experience in eliminating thieves, so let him assist in going to the Black Flag Army. ”
Beifu County
After Ren Feng held a funeral for his father, he also used up the money he borrowed from the He family.
In order to repay his debts, he temporarily helped out with odd jobs at He's house. Old lady He has always wanted to take the land of Ren Feng's family, and he will deduct Ren Feng's remuneration at every turn.
Old lady He's actions made Ren Feng dare to be angry and dare not speak, he has been looking for an opportunity, he must repay all the borrowed money within three months, otherwise his land will be mortgaged.
The land of Western Chu was dry for 50 consecutive days, but it did not affect Beifu County.
However, Hokbu-gun is very close to Yokogawa, and it is close to the area where riots broke out. The war has affected the public order of Beifu County, and the impact on Beifu County is not small.
But for landlords like the He family, the impact is not great, and the landlords in each town discussed the formation of a guard army to resist this group of rogues.
Ren Feng also heard that there were more or less riots in various places around him, but he felt that the riots could not solve everyone's problems, and the court would definitely not sit idly by.
But he couldn't change the situation, he just wouldn't be involved in the riots himself. The top priority is to earn enough money to pay off the debts you owe.
