Such a great opportunity will not be let go of the imperial history of the Imperial History Tower, not to mention that more than half of these imperial histories were originally born in the family or the dogs raised by the family gate valve.
Therefore, about the Yongzhou snow disaster, the matter of disaster relief food allocation has not yet been put on the agenda, and the rumor that anyone with a discerning eye knows what is going on was taken to the court by these imperial historians to talk about it.
From the harm of the snow disaster, how many victims appeared, how many chaotic people were caused, shook the court and society, and then listed the ten major sins for Wang Junlin, and finally asked the emperor to order Wang Junlin to be taken down, or even beheaded, in order to calm the people's anger. During this period, there was a conclusive statement in the imperial history that as long as Wang Junlin was killed, the people would not be in turmoil, otherwise there would be a rebellion in Yongzhou, and hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry would take the opportunity to go south, shake the community, and be in danger of destroying the country.
In short, no matter how exaggerated it is, how to say it, how serious it is, how to shout, it can be said that words are like knives, and rebukes are like arrows. As for the crying, screaming, kowtowing and bleeding that some people said about emotion in this process, and other passionate performances, they are even more superb in acting, and they are definitely at the level of actors.
In addition, defeated Tuyuhun and Dong. At this time, except for a small number of generals such as Changsun Sheng and Pei Shiju, and several poor officials who were protected by Wang Junlin in the imperial examination last year, no one mentioned Wang Junlin's exploits.
In short, the wind and waves rose suddenly, the city was full of wind and rain, and Wang Junlin was on the cusp of the storm.
With the joint name of the twenty-one imperial historians, he asked Yang Jian to issue an order to take down Wang Junlin, and to use the anger of the people to Anyongzhou.
After two days, the matter became bigger and bigger, and there seemed to be more and more courtiers who couldn't see it, and gradually, headed by Yang Su, the Duke of Yueguo, there were more than 100 ministers in the court who went up one after another, asking Yang Jian to order to take down Wang Junlin.
Rumors were also rife in Chang'an City, and the subjects were talking openly and secretly, and Wang Junlin became the center of the storm in the Great Sui court without knowing it.
……
……
After Wang Junlin and Shen Guang escaped from the mysterious Dao Gu, they took a little beauty named Su Meier to join Xu Jingzong, and the group dressed up as a caravan and went to Jincheng, the capital of Yongzhou, where Su Meier sat alone in the carriage.
It's just that as they approached Jincheng, everyone's mood became heavier and heavier.
There are many refugees on the road, dense and endless, and when you look at it on horseback, the whole road is flooded with refugees, everyone has a different appearance, but there is the same sadness and deep worry about the future on their faces.
From time to time, the muffled cries of women and children, the heart-rending howls of children, or the heavy sighs of the men in charge of the house, were heard from time to time in the crowd of people who walked numbly......
The most important thing is that the weather shows no sign of clearing, although the snow has stopped, but the sky is still gloomy, under the canopy, the cold wind is still howling like winter, biting, the refugees are shivering from the cold, many people are still wearing thin cloth shoes on their feet, even straw sandals, a pair of dark bare feet are exposed in the cold air, revealing a deep taste of suffering.
Wang Junlin's face was expressionless, his expression was even more gloomy than the weather, and the faces of Shen Guang and Xu Jingzong next to him were also extremely ugly.
At this time, there was a cry in front of them, and everyone looked up in surprise, only to see the river bridge not far away, and the black pressure did not know how many people were blocked. More than ninety percent of them are ragged and unkempt homeless people. And the remaining less than one adult is a passing official, a traveler, and a trader. They are separated by an invisible wall, as if they are not of the same kind at all!
"Master Hou, Lord Assassin Shi has opened more than 20 porridge sheds outside Jincheng. Therefore, victims from all over the country rushed to Jincheng. "Shen Guang had followed Zhonglang General Yang Hushi all the way from Jincheng before, so he had some understanding of the situation in Jincheng," but when he left Jincheng a few days ago, the river bridge had not been separated by railings. ”
Wang Junlin and Xu Jingzong listened to the sound and took a closer look, only to find that this river bridge was actually divided into left and right halves by railings. On the left side, about eighty percent of the bridge deck is occupied for officials, travelers, vendors, and other well-dressed people who lead the way clearly. The two percent on the right side are provided to the homeless people who go to Jincheng for a few hot porridge meals. The invisible wall under the bridge is actually an extension of the railing on the bridge. From the eyes of the person, all the way to poke. into the heart.
Wang Junlin saw this scene, his brows frowned tightly, although he is now Qin Anhou, but because he comes from later generations, the respect and humility between people and people are completely different from the people of this era, although he is also ruthless on weekdays, but he can't be indifferent to the cry at the head of the river bridge at this moment!
"Master Hou, why would someone set up a railing and deliberately make the passage of the displaced people so narrow, I'm afraid this matter is not simple." Xu Jingzong frowned and said in a low voice.
As soon as Xu Jingzong's words fell, an official at the head of the river bridge shouted loudly: "You untouchables, listen up, it is General Zhenyuan, Qin Anhou's order, Qin Anhou is a powerful person who is not even afraid of God, you dare to be disobedient, be careful that Qin Anhou sends someone to burn your whole family." ”
These words came down the wind, and Wang Junlin and his entourage's faces changed greatly, and they all became iron-blue. Obviously, someone spared no effort to make Wang King's reputation stink, so that the homeless people hated Wang King's Lin to death. This bridge is the only way to Jincheng from the west, and it passes by many displaced people every day, and most of the people in this era lack the ability to judge, and the so-called people are like this.
"What a vicious method." Wang Junlin laughed angrily, "Go and four people smash the railing, and then arrest the official who spoke just now." ”
The four guards said yes and rushed over.
"Wait!" Xu Jingzong spoke up to stop, "Master Hou, I think this move was done deliberately by the other party, in addition to slandering Lord Hou's reputation, it is to force Lord Hou to expose his whereabouts, please think twice." ”
Wang Junlin took a deep breath, calmed down, and muttered: "Jingzong's words are reasonable, but I was impulsive. I guess things like this are happening all over Jincheng County these days. Shen Guang, how many people are there in Jincheng County? ”
Shen Guang perked up and said: "Back to the Hou Ye, after learning that someone had slandered the Hou Ye with rumors a few days ago, he specially mobilized three hundred people from Guanzhong, plus the local Yongzhou, the low post can mobilize five hundred good players in one day. ”
"Very little, within three days, all the people who dare to talk nonsense and slander me like this official will be secretly arrested in Jincheng." Wang Junlin's voice was cold and piercing, and the murderous intent in his eyes was monstrous.
