Chapter Twenty-Six: Youzhou City is coming to an end

"Winter is coming, Youzhou City does not have enough grain, grass and charcoal, and now the whole city is panicking." Shen Yu frowned and told Lu Mingshuang about the situation in Youzhou City.

"How are the people, how many merchants are there in the city, and how much grain, grass and charcoal are they stockpiled?" Lu Mingshuang didn't expect that the situation in Youzhou City had become like this now.

Perhaps, it is more or less related to Chu Yixi's withdrawal of troops. How can a city lord without soldiers defend a city?

"The people I sent to negotiate with the merchants in the city have returned in vain." Shen Yu shook his head, indicating that things were not that simple.

"Newspaper, county lord, Simon...... Something happened to Simon. A soldier ran in and shouted a loud report.

"What's going on?" Lu Mingshuang and Shen Yu glanced at each other and asked.

"The county lord, Captain Shen, the people of Ximen are rioting." The soldier raised his head, and Lu Mingshuang noticed that the soldier's face had traces of blunt force wounds.

It seems that things are not so simple.

"Let's go, let's go and see first." Lu Mingshuang was the first to get up and strode out of the hall.

"What is the cause?" Shen Yu followed behind, asking the soldier in a deep voice.

"Someone didn't abide by the precepts set by the county lord, and his subordinates went down to dissuade him, but he was moved by that person, and then someone shouted in the crowd, saying that Youzhou City was going to end." The soldier lowered his head as he spoke, as if he had done something wrong.

"You go down to the doctor to treat the wound first, and Captain Shen and I will go by ourselves." After hearing this, Lu Mingshuang's eyes darkened, and he commanded the soldiers.

"No, county lord, the subordinates are fine, the subordinates can follow and protect the county lord's safety." The little soldier's tone was sincere, and his eyes were clear.

Shen Yu smiled and stopped to teach the soldier: "If you want to protect the county lord, you must protect yourself first." ”

"Why don't you go and take care of the wound?" Shen Yu couldn't help but sigh more when he saw that the soldier was still dumbfounded.

"Yes." The soldier's eyes widened, and he finally stopped, watching Lu Mingshuang and Shen Yu leave.

"What kind of Youzhou pastor are you, you can't even solve the people's food and clothing, and there are so many prohibitions, it's not a fallacy to confuse the public, what is it?" I don't know who roared in the crowd, and the people around them became agitated.

"Everyone, be quiet, I am Lu Li, and I promise you that I will definitely solve everyone's food and clothing problems." Lu Li was a man of letters, and at this time, he could only hope that someone would listen to what he said.

Although he doesn't know if he can come up with a solution to the people's food and clothing, it is now an eventful time, and more is better than less.

"Don't listen to him, Lu Li is not a good person, I heard that the empress dowager in the capital is afraid of him, everyone listen to me, we captured Lu Li alive, and then the court will send someone to save us." A deep male voice blended in with the rioting crowd and continued to fan the flames.

"Yes, yes, I captured Lu Li alive." The people have always listened to one out of the other, and when they saw someone coming forward, they were excited, as if they really caught Lu Li, and the Queen Mother would be able to reward them.

Lu Li had never seen such a battle, but with his influence on Confucian ideology and culture, he continued to dissuade him: "Everyone be quiet and listen to me." ”

Lu Li's voice was all covered by the shouts of the rioting people, and the people couldn't listen to what he said here.

I don't know who threw a fruit first, and the people behind all started to fight with the people sent by Lu Li to suppress it.

A shoe accidentally brushed Lu Li's forehead and bled out.

"Protect your lordship." At this time, the talents around Lu Li realized that something was really wrong, and surrounded Lu Li in the middle to protect them one by one.

When Lu Mingshuang and Shen Yu arrived, what they saw was that the rioting people surrounded Lu Li and his party in the middle, and some people were even beating up the officers and soldiers.

"Stop, stop." When Lu Mingshuang saw the blood on Lu Li's face from a distance, his eyes were red.

Lu Mingshuang scolded loudly, and his voice was so terrifying that the originally noisy people suddenly shut up.

"Spread out for me." Lu Mingshuang's voice was bloodthirsty.

The people had never seen Lu Mingshuang like this, and they were suddenly shocked by her, and they all took a few steps back and scattered.

The safety of Lu Li and his entourage was temporarily resolved.

"Daddy." Lu Mingshuang wanted to walk over, but Lu Li shook his head at her. Lu Mingshuang saw his intention from Lu Li's eyes, and appeased the people first.

Lu Mingshuang knew what her father meant, the people were the foundation of the rise and fall of the city, and she must not care about the life or death of the people.

took Shen Yu to the high platform, and Lu Mingshuang looked down at the people in the audience.

Among the people, there were women, children, and old people. How innocent they are, and how pathetic they are!

She took a deep breath and suppressed her anger before she spoke.

"I can understand everyone's feelings, winter is coming, and you haven't landed food and charcoal yet, but with Youzhou Mu in one day, you will definitely not let everyone be hungry and cold." Lu Mingshuang stood on the high platform outside the station and put her voice to the maximum, so that the people in the audience could hear what she was saying clearly.

Maybe Lu Mingshuang's expression was too calm, or maybe her tone was too firm, and the people who were originally very firm gradually wavered.

"Yes, there is still Youzhou Mu, Youzhou Mu will definitely solve the problem for us."

And there was a whisper among the people.

Lu Mingshuang saw that the attitude of the people below was no longer so tough, so he slowly spoke again: "Please rest assured, the people have stored enough grain and grass in Youzhou City, and I have found the source of charcoal, I, Lu Mingshuang, will definitely solve all our problems for everyone." ”

"Really, is there really so much grain and grass in Youzhou City? Didn't you say that Youzhou Mu had already sent all the grain, grass and charcoal to the army? Some of the people in the audience knew some eyebrows and asked around.

"Who knows, it's the county lord on the stage, maybe she can really have a way, I'll just say, how can a city not have a reserve of grain, grass and charcoal, I think we are really careful." A young man dressed in a cloth shirt and wearing a Confucian crown said.

"County Lord, how can we believe what you say?" A man knew Lu Mingshuang, so he asked in a loud voice.

"Please rest assured, if I can't solve everyone's problems, then how can I dare to boast about Haikou here?" Lu Mingshuang showed a shallow smile on his face.

"Yes, if there is no way, how can she, a woman, say these things here." An old man followed.

"Then let's believe in the county lord for a while." The man said loudly in a hoarse voice.
