Others thought that the prefect was sick, but only the judge of Luoyang Mansion saw it very clearly, where did the prefect faint because he was sick, this guy was obviously frightened by Qin Cha's unrelenting posture, and thought of a crooked trick to hit his head on the ground, and knocked himself unconscious.

This judge is not a fool, as soon as the prefect falls, he will be directly responsible. He didn't want to take on this hot errand at all. Therefore, the judge fell on the spot with great determination.

The judge followed the prefect closely and relapsed into the old disease, and fell in front of everyone, for the sake of realism, this guy actually bit the tip of his tongue and spit out a mouthful of blood.

All right?

This Qincha has not yet read the holy decree, and the two supreme governors of Luoyang City have fallen.

At this moment, everyone present, including the messenger who came to deliver the decree, was blinded.

The remaining officials present were able to accept this holy decree, but none of them were of high grade enough to take over this errand arranged by the holy decree.

To say, in a city, shouldn't there be assistants like Tongzhi and Fucheng?

Luoyang Mansion does have it, and there is no shortage at this time.

However, these two did not go to the city at all today.

Luoyang Fucheng is actually a local, he is not a serious Jinshi background, he can be the Fucheng of this Xijing capital, it is still a recent thing, he is a relative of a conservative member, however, he also has the qualifications of a Guozi supervisor, so this Fucheng is not overstepping. He has been in Bianliang City for so long, and he has long been trained into an old fritter. He knew that there must be nothing good for Qin to send here.

So, after receiving the notice, he immediately sent his family to inform the prefect that he had an emergency and could not go to meet the prefect. He really had to invite an acquaintance Langzhong in Luoyang City to his home to treat him. As for what kind of emergency this lord was suffering from, his family did not say, and at that time, the prefect was in a hurry to greet the Qincha, so he didn't bother to ask this question.

And just now, the prefect himself took the initiative to fall and pretend to be sick, which was inspired by this mansion.

As for Tongzhi, he is really old, this Tongzhi is 69 years old this year, and he plans to report to Zhishi in the near future. Originally, this fellow knew that if the rulers in the court did not dislike him, he would work until the day he died, but as an old man, his political sense was still very keen.

He was the first official to discover Cai Dao's big rat plan, so he naturally noticed the unusual behavior between some officials and merchants in Luoyang City. The reason why the prefect of Luoyang Mansion chose to close the city gate and ignore the hungry people who went straight to Bianliang City was that there was not much food in Luoyang City at all. As far as he knew, it was hard to sustain the rations of the current population.

Send troops out to block Fenglingdu, that also needs military rations.

But the prefect of Luoyang Mansion can't even get a stone of military rations now.

Therefore, this Tongzhi did not go to greet the Qin Cha, because he had already made a plan, and was ready to resign and return to his hometown, and would no longer wade into this troubled water.

As soon as this Qincha was in a hurry, he used his identity as Qincha to force the supreme commander of the Luoyang City Xiang Army to immediately lead his troops out of the city to block the gap in Fenglingdu.

However, this general did not listen to the command, the reason is very simple, this Lord Qincha does not have this right, and the holy decree in his hand is to let Luoyang Mansion complete the task of intercepting the hungry people, but he himself cannot directly order the army in Luoyang.

Without the documents of the Ministry of War, the prefect and the judge are no longer there, and this general will never move a single soldier, this is the rule of the Great Song Dynasty. However, it was also the people sent by Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongshu to deliver the decree that their own grades were not enough. And they don't have enough courage. Otherwise, even if he was a civil official of the ninth grade, and he slaughtered this general on the spot, no one else would say anything.

Helplessly, this Qin Cha had no choice but to send his subordinates back to Bianliang City to report the matter to the two prime ministers, and of course he didn't dare to go back like this.

This time and again, it can delay the matter. After Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu learned of this situation, they were almost angry to death by the civil and military officials of Luoyang Mansion and the Qin Cha sent by themselves.

After some discussion, the two had no choice but to join forces with Gao Taotao, and temporarily sent the secretary and young eunuch Liu Zhi to Luoyang, Xijing, so that this famous minister could sit in Xijing for them.

Liu Zhi said that Wang Anshi was also promoted, but the difference between him and Zheng Xia is that he opposed Wang Anshi's change of law because he realized that Wang Anshi was too impatient in the process of changing the law, which led to some new laws that originally wanted to benefit the people become new laws that harm the people, so he was demoted out of the capital early.

In the past, in order to resist the attack of the reformers who were strongly supported by Song Shenzong, everyone worked together to advance and retreat. However, since the death of Song Shenzong and Sima Guang's serious illness and inability to govern, factions have gradually begun to appear among conservative ministers. Of course, at this time, Cai Qu and Zhang Dun were still prime ministers, so the contradictions between them did not break out.

After Liu Zhi received the order, he did not shirk it, and he immediately took a loyal servant to Xijing on a fast horse to take up his post.

On the way, he naturally saw a large number of hungry people marching in the direction of Bianliang, and these helpless people who looked at Bianliang City were full of hope for them to reach the capital of the Great Song Dynasty.

You must know that Wen Yanbo, one of the Zaifu who now holds the power of the DPRK and China, is the Jiexiu of Hedong Road, that is, the so-called Jiexiu Three Sages in history. Could it be that after this fellow became a Zaifu, he would watch these fellow villagers on Hedong Road starve to death in the middle of the road.

Looking at all this in front of him, Liu Zhi couldn't help but think of the great drought in Guanzhong in the seventh year of Xining, although the initial location of the disaster was different from that of today, but after arriving in Luoyang, the route traveled by these victims was exactly the same as that year.

However, Wang Anshi back then and Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongshu now have completely different attitudes towards this matter.

Regardless of his feelings, Liu Zhi soon got the Xijing Luoyang, and he also brought a holy decree, the first four civil officials of Luoyang Mansion, the prefect and the judge were directly dismissed from their official positions, and the government was transferred to a lower county on Jinghu South Road as a county magistrate. And the old acquaintance finally got his wish, but he was only allowed to do it after he was demoted.

As for the general, the general who disobeyed the order of the Qin Cha was directly locked in place, and was escorted back to the capital by the Qin Cha on the same day.

However, when Liu Zhi planned to send the Xiang army in Luoyang City to block the Fengling Ferry in accordance with the holy decree, he ran into a problem.

The emperor is not a hungry soldier, not to mention, Liu Zhi is just a prefect. These box soldiers were regarded as slaves by the civil and military officials in Luoyang City on weekdays, not only did they not have any remuneration, but the military salaries issued by the imperial court were also exploited by the officers above, and they drank the blood of the soldiers as officers, which was no secret in the Great Song Dynasty. What's more, Xijing Luoyang City is located in the inland area, and there are no enemies around, and there is Tokyo Bianliang next to it, so naturally there is no need for heavy guards.

Regarding the situation of the lax armament of Luoyang Mansion, from the Son of Heaven to the Luoyang Order, they all know it. However, this Liu Zhi just didn't know that he, a person who was used to being the imperial history, had always only cared about the affairs of the Son of Heaven and the civil and military officials in Bianliang City.

Military attachés had no human rights in the Great Song Dynasty, which was fully demonstrated here by Liu Zhi. He had no choice, so he forced the other two lieutenants of the Xiang army to personally lead his troops to attack the Fenglingdu ferry, which had been occupied by the hungry people, and even more resolutely destroy the pontoon bridge that connected both sides of the Yellow River. As for the military salary, he naturally didn't care about it, but of course the military rations had to be given.

Liu Zhi opened the treasury, gave the conscripted army enough military rations for seven days, and issued a death order, asking these two lieutenants to take these old, weak, sick and disabled people to complete the two tasks within seven days.

And the food deficit in Luoyang City naturally had to be asked for from those civil officials who were demoted, but since Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu sent themselves to help the emergency, the food difference naturally had to be made up by Bianliang City for themselves. However, there is a premise, that is, the soldiers he sent out will really be able to reoccupy the Fenglingdu ferry and prevent the hungry people on the Hedong Road from continuing to pass through the pontoon bridge to the south bank of the Yellow River.

However, Liu Zhi didn't know that it was not the hungry people who were occupying the Fengling Ferry now, but the elite troops of the bandits sent by Cai Dao, and after the lord of Mu Laozhai, he sent the returning You Feixiong out again, accompanied by a hundred elite cavalry. The riding skills of these people are naturally not as good as the cavalry of the Western Xia and Liao, but when they are riding Mongolian horses, they are not at all afraid of stage fright when facing the forbidden army.

You Feixiong was naturally very keen on the task of being able to block the civil officials, and this group of only 100 people took less than seven days to reach the ferry port on the south bank of the Yellow River in Fengling.

If, at the beginning, the Qin messenger who went to Luoyang City to issue the holy decree had done something decisively, these Xiang troops would still have been able to capture Fenglingdu in time.
