Chapter 107: Situation (First Update, Asking for Support)
It's okay not to say this kind of thing, but it's unreasonable.
And it's useless to say it, everyone knows that it's not a problem for them to pick it up now.
"But if you don't take it, what if you pursue it?"
The reminders of others made Wang Dalin's brows furrow. "Isn't it, there are tens of thousands of guards around the emperor, if you don't accept it, how can you and I be able to afford the emperor's thunderous anger at that time?"
Wang Dalin hesitated, always feeling that the matter was coming, pretending not to know, not only lost the righteousness of the monarch and ministers, but also should help strangers even if they were in trouble. As for all the supplies, can they be satisfied? At this time, I don't have to worry so much, as long as I do my best and have a clear conscience, I think the emperor will understand when he sees the depressed and dilapidated scene in this area of Yulin.
"As a minister, how can I disobey the emperor's order now?" Clapped his palm, Wang Dalin, who had made up his mind, immediately gave orders, first of all, he sent someone to send the news that the holy car had arrived in Yulin to Xi'an, because the emperor will be here at noon tomorrow, so he should try to prepare food, and secondly, he must search the kitchens of the rich families in the city, and gather all the more precious food materials together, but this Yulin is not as good as Fucheng, and there are no precious ingredients in the rich families in this city, and in the end only some pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks have been collected, as for what precious ingredients are not seenEven so, he still divided half of these ingredients, sent the chef in the small kitchen to carry them, and rushed to the foot of the Great Wall overnight to help the kitchen cook the imperial meal. At the same time, a notice was issued, inviting all the gentry of the county to go to the county yamen to discuss matters. When the gentry arrived in the palace, it would be three watches, and everyone could only gather in the house with candles, and when they heard that the holy car was coming to Yulin, all the gentry were stunned, although they were very surprised, but they did not say a word. This is not because it is an extremely troublesome errand to run the emperor's errand, this kind of thing has money to contribute, and it has a strong contribution, that family's house is good, and it needs to be vacated, and that family has antique calligraphy and paintings, which must be borrowed for decoration, and if the emperor takes a fancy to it, it will also pay tribute.
For such an errand, the gentry of Yulin City have never done it, and as for the imperial spirit, they have not heard of it for hundreds of years, but they don't feel that there is the slightest brilliance.
After all, the times are different now, not to mention that they can't be compared with the Chengping period, it is this emperor, that is also the emperor of Manchuria, they are Han, and when the Manchus came, they killed a lot of Han people. Besides, now that the emperor is here, the court is also there, what if he is stained with Emperor Hu's anger and the Ming court investigates it?
It's no wonder they think so, even though there have been many rumors that something is full and there is still a big tomorrow. But people don't dare to believe it, but now, the emperor has come, but it proves this, isn't it just like the original thief! first entered Beijing, and then returned to Shaanxi in a gloomy manner, and within a few days, the Great Shun Dynasty disappeared.
The same must be true of this Qing Dynasty!
Since this is the case, then this car naturally can't be welcomed.
With this in mind, everyone remained silent, and this kind of party group meant dissatisfaction, vigilance, and if the county magistrate made excessive demands, they would immediately meet with revolt. Seeing this situation, Wang Dalin, who knew that the Great Qing Kingdom was no longer like the past, naturally could no longer be like the past, blindly using strong bullets to suppress, but said in a soothing tone.
"Don't worry! The holy car is nothing more than passing by here, staying for one night, then leaving, will go to Xi'an. As for the officers and soldiers who accompanied them, they were also easy to deal with. Now I invite you to come here just to cope with the errand. In order to deal with the situation, every family has a stock of grain, half of it is divided, and then the people in each village are allowed to make some cakes, steam some buns, and cook some porridge, in short, the more the merrier. It would be nice to be able to prepare some more salt vegetables and meat or something. As for the price, it will be paid by the county in the future, and it will never affect the people. Hearing what the prefect said, the gentry full of people were all relieved, at least this errand seemed to be lighter than they imagined, and one of the senior gentry sitting in the chief knew that this was probably the bottom line of the government, so he replied on behalf of everyone: "This kind of errand can be done, and we will definitely obey the order." As soon as he had said this, he heard a report from the messenger that there were a few scholars in the city who wanted to see the prefect. Wang Dalin told everyone a farewell, and then went out of the second hall to meet those scholars directly. These so-called scholars are actually the kind of scholars who do not want to go out into the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and most of them do not have the fame of the Manchu Dynasty, so they can often only be called "scholars".
"I heard that Fuzun is going out of the city in the middle of the night?"
An old man who was over the age of sixteen at the head asked.
"Yes."
Wang Dalin was also frank and replied directly.
"The holy driver will arrive in Yulin tomorrow morning, and the official will naturally rush over to pick it up."
"Hmph, it's just a group of Hu chiefs who fled from the capital in a hurry, and they are still worthy of being called holy drivers?"
If someone said this in the past, Wang Dalin would have ordered this person to be killed on the spot in the name of "great rebellion", but now he did not do so, but said with a smile.
"The emperor patrols the whole country, you can go there, how can you say that you escaped?"
"If you don't escape, why don't you live in the inner courtyard of the palace, and you have to travel thousands of miles to come here through Mongolia?"
The other party's answer Wang Dalin's heart tightened suddenly, he knew that these people were definitely not here to carry him up, so he said.
"The emperor can't live in the inner courtyard of the palace because there are rebels and thieves, and now he is just hiding here, just waiting for a little rest, and I will naturally recapture the capital in the Qing Dynasty."
Before he could finish speaking, someone sneered again.
"What a big breath, I have to see if you still have this amount of gas in Daqing!"
"Gas count!"
Wang Dalin sneered.
"I am in the Qing Dynasty, and I am overcoming the Ming Huode, and the world must still be the weather of my Qing Dynasty! I advise you not to be rash, if not, don't blame the official for being ruthless! ”
When he turned around and left, Wang Dalin ordered Ya Yong, who was guarding in shifts.
"From this point on, go to the street with a knife, but if anyone makes trouble, shoot and kill, don't have any scruples!" The reason why Wang Dalin said this is because he knows that if he can't be deterred, these things who claim to be relics don't know what kind of things will do. He wasn't worried about what kind of chaos these people would cause, but he knew that the most important thing now was to find a way to stabilize these people, and it was precisely because of this that he did not order these people to be killed to avoid the problem from escalating.
As the prefect, Wang Dalin was worried about chaos, and those gentry in the second hall also had such worries, and they were also worried about whether there would be chaos, as soon as Wang Dalin entered the door, someone asked.
"My lord, if they are bent on making trouble, what will they do then?"
They would be worried, not so much that those people would make a rebellion and drive away the government, but that they would retaliate against the Manchu court afterwards, after all, there were tens of thousands of Manchurian soldiers there.
"It doesn't matter!"
Wang Dalin said quite confidently.
"This official is a magistrate, and he naturally has the responsibility to defend the land, and now he is ordered to welcome him, and he must go out of the city. But they will never let the thieves seize the city because they are out of the city, there is a national law, and they don't dare to make trouble, not to mention, the emperor is leading tens of thousands of royal forest troops to be dozens of miles away, they just eat the bear's heart and leopard gall, and what dare they do? Rest assured, as long as everyone does their best to do their errands, those people will not dare to make trouble! ”
After Wang Dalin was so relieved, the gentry resigned one after another, and left the city to go home to prepare to deal with the errand, and then Wang Dalin gathered his subordinates and led the team of Yayong to discuss how to maintain local law and order when the holy car arrived. Zhang Hongyuan, who was the purpose of the team, was also quite capable, and immediately patted his chest and said that although his brothers were only twenty-three, they would definitely be able to protect the whole city.
"Please rest assured, as long as the villain is here, no one will dare to make trouble in Yulin City!"
"Good! Tomorrow, the official will go out of the West Gate with six people with me, and this Yulin City will be handed over to you, if anyone dares to make trouble, it will not matter if you kill them, you must not hesitate at all. ”
Although he was born in Baoyi, Wang Dalin also knew that the reason why the Great Qing Kingdom was able to stabilize the country was because of the word "ruthless", the Great Qing Kingdom killed people, more ruthless than anyone else, it was the official of the Great Qing Dynasty, killing people, it was also a ruthless word, in the eyes of the people and the officials of the Great Qing Dynasty, it was just a grass introduction, but it was just an ant, and it was naturally unceremonious to kill, of course, this is because the court supported them!
"Of course, of course, what your lord said is very true!"
Nodding, Wang Dalin thought for a moment, and then continued.
"In this case, I can rest assured, in addition to the few people I took away, I will also leave all the officials on the county government side to you. However, it is better to deal with those people by scaring them so that they do not dare to act rashly. Now is not the time for chaos."
"The villain understands that as long as he stabilizes them temporarily, besides, the soldiers will arrive soon, and they don't dare to stand up for it."
Everyone was talking about this, only to see the figure outside the door, the face was not clear, and what was shocking was a large red on the chest, and there was no need to look at the smell of blood on the face, and they also knew that it was blood on the chest. When I called it in, it was actually the cook I had sent before.
"Big master, after the little ones went out on the orders of the big man, they couldn't walk two or three miles, and they ran into a group of Qiu Eight Masters who stopped us from carrying things and donkeys. At that time, the little one said, "The things on the donkey are ready to serve the emperor." But the leader still shouted, "I haven't eaten for two days," and then took a knife and slashed it! ”
The cook said as he cried.
"I've been stabbed here. Even the things and donkeys were snatched away. ”
What happened to the cook made Wang Dalin and his subordinates look at each other immediately, they didn't expect it to be so chaotic, and they had no choice but to decide to rush over early to see the situation and then think of a way.
