Chapter 182: A Great Wrong.
The locust feast is naturally dominated by locusts, and the imperial court has purchased many locusts at a low price as early as when the locust plague was rampant in Chang'an.
There are tables and tables on the flowing water on Suzaku Street, only many people eat a round belly, full of fried locusts, fragrant white rice, and some special side dishes, although it is not very exquisite, but for the people of Chang'an who are now making trouble, such a meal is indeed enough to make the people of the Great Wall nine times nine move their fingers, and their appetite is great!
"This locust feast held by the master of the horse can really be said to be groundbreaking for the first time, when have you ever seen such a spectacular scene in Chang'an City?"
Chang'an people are good at gossip and love gossip, even this fragrant fried locust can't stop the mouths of these Chang'an people!
"That's not it, since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, only the government has always collected taxes and asked us people for food, where have I heard that the imperial court took the initiative to hold a banquet and invited us ordinary people to eat!"
"What you said is to the point, if it weren't for the fried locusts of the horse master, I am afraid of this locust plague, we Datang don't know how many people will be affected, and the fried locusts of the horse can be said to have saved the lives of millions of people!"
There is the old man of Chang'an, I really can't help but sigh, during the feudal society, the productivity was low, even the most prosperous dynasty, three years and five years, it is inevitable to suffer a drought and flood, especially like this locust plague, it is not encountered for decades and hundreds of years, but once it happens, it must be a thousand miles of starvation, who would have thought that the locust plague that has plagued the feudal dynasty for thousands of years has become such a delicacy in the eyes of the horse.
"I heard that a few days ago, Lord Yin Meng Wenli Meng of Jingzhao Mansion summoned a horse to Jingzhao Mansion to confront him because of the locust death incident in the White Horse Temple and the Drunken Immortal Tower, but I don't know what the result is now?"
Some people really can't help but ask, there are no less than dozens of locusts dead in the White Horse Temple and the Drunken Immortal Tower, which is definitely a big case in Chang'an City, but I haven't heard of any new case developments in the past few days.
After returning from Jingzhao Mansion, the horse house dragon was even more busy with the locust feast wholeheartedly, and it seemed that this matter had completely calmed down, and since the horse house dragon was able to hold the locust feast,
His Majesty Li Er attended the locust feast, which naturally proved that the locusts were not poisonous, and it seemed that this matter should also be revealed, but could those dozens of lives really be accepted so easily?
"So what, fried locusts are not poisonous and harmless, the horse house dragon asserted himself, but I don't know how those people ate themselves to death, I'm afraid this matter will really become a headless unsolved case!" Someone couldn't help but shake their heads and said.
However, since this matter was mentioned, it immediately caused many people to gossip, especially when it came to the White Horse Temple and the locust death incident in the Drunken Immortal Building, some people even put down the chopsticks in their hands, only to feel that the fried locusts that they had just eaten were not so fragrant at the moment.
Although it is said that this fried locust is non-toxic and harmless, it has been confirmed by horses, and has even been promoted nationwide by His Majesty Li Er, but these people still have palpitations after all, and the dozens of lives that were eaten and killed in the White Horse Temple and the Drunken Immortal Tower are still vivid!
"But since this matter has arrived at Lord Meng of Jingzhao Mansion, Lord Meng will definitely give an explanation, I am waiting for the people in the market, why bother with these things, come on, let's continue!"
Although some people continued to greet them, they could not help but have a strange atmosphere at the locust feast, and this atmosphere seemed to be gradually fermenting.
However, on the whole, it does not seem to have had any serious impact on the locust feast, and the 10,000-table banquet set up on Suzaku Street is like flowing water, and the general population is still very lively.
However, what no one noticed was that at the entrance of Suzaku Street, some of the victims were gathered together, and the number of these victims was about 1,000 people.
But at this moment, it is the period of the fried locust feast, and there are many pedestrians on Suzaku Street, even if these thousands of victims gather together, it is just a wave in the sea.
Because of this locust feast, the horses did not set a threshold, which means that whether you are a prince or noble, a common person or a displaced person in Chang'an City, you can enjoy the fried locust feast.
Even at this moment, there are not a few victims who have already entered the table, but the more than 1,000 victims at this street corner do not seem to have come to enjoy this feast of fried locusts.
The leaders of the victims looked at each other, and then suddenly cried and shouted!
"Wronged, wronged!"
This sentence was like a beginning, and under the leadership of these victims, the remaining more than 1,000 victims suddenly shouted one after another.
"Wronged, beg His Majesty the Emperor to call the shots for us!"
"I beg His Majesty the Emperor to call the shots for us and return my husband's life!"
"My child was obviously killed by eating fried locusts, why can't the government try it impartially?"
…
For a time, the shouts of more than 1,000 victims resounded throughout Chang'an Avenue, suppressing all the miscellaneous sounds of eating and drinking.
"Bold, how can the locust feast allow you to wait for nonsense, disperse quickly!"
The shouts of these victims immediately attracted the Chang'an Forbidden Army guarding on Vermilion Bird Street, and the commander of the forbidden army could not have led the forbidden army to disperse all these people regardless of how much of the wronged people were, and he would immediately command the forbidden army to disperse all these people.
The horse house dragon even told him that there is only one task for the Chang'an Forbidden Army today, that is, to ensure the smooth progress of the locust feast.
Since Master Ma has already said everything about this, how can these Chang'an forbidden troops not do their best?
"Master Jun, we are wronged, we are wronged!"
"Jingzhao Mansion Yin doesn't care about us, doesn't Your Majesty care about us either?"
"It's true that we are disaster victims, but aren't disaster victims human? Aren't the victims of the disaster the people of Datang? ”
"We have a great wrong, there is nowhere to appeal, we can only come to see His Majesty Li Er, if you have to disperse us, then simply beat us to death here!"
