On the attic of the tallest single building of Daming Daily at Zhu Youxiao Station, you can just see a large group of marching rioters and the soldiers and horses of Dongchang Fanzi and Liu Kongzhao who confronted it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"I didn't expect these Jiangnan people to be so crazy that they completely disregarded the authority of any cabinet scholar, and even dared to attack the always frightening Dongchang," Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but say.

"I'm afraid that the scholars of the Restoration Society themselves didn't expect that they just wanted to force Your Majesty to ban the Royal Weaving Bureau, but who would have thought that once the people went crazy, they would dare to do anything, I'm afraid", Wei Min'er couldn't help but shut up when she said, but Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but turn around and look at her and asked, "I'm afraid of what?" ”

Wei Min'er couldn't stand Zhu Youxiao's compelling eyes, so she had to reply: "I'm afraid that there will be a popular uprising, and even the cult will take the opportunity to cause chaos, and then Jiangnan will fall into chaos, and Daming will probably not be protected!" ”

"Presumptuous!"

Zhu Youxiao suddenly scolded Wei Min'er, although he had to admit that the daughter of the former first assistant in front of him was indeed extremely smart, but he would never allow others to say things like the Ming Dynasty lightly.

The Ming Dynasty has been carried for more than 200 years, and many people automatically think that it is time to change the dynasty, and regard the demise of the Ming Dynasty as a very natural historical law, just as people will be born, old, sick and die.

It is precisely because of this that many of the scholars of the Ming Dynasty are as negative as the scholars of the late dynasties of the previous dynasties, or they are looking for excuses for their poor and luxurious life, anyway, because they feel that the dynasty will die, they come to "the warm wind smokes the tourists and makes Hangzhou Bianzhou".

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao, as the emperor, although he must have a sense of distress, he must also put an end to the negative thoughts that arise or discuss below, and he wants everyone in the dynasty to have the confidence to believe that the Ming Dynasty can still dominate the country for hundreds of years!

Wei Min'er saw Zhu Youxiao's fists clenched and his muscles bulging, but his eyes were mysterious and unpredictable, as if he had a sense of approval, so he also understood his original intention of drinking himself like this, so he had to nod his head and say, "The people's daughter is guilty!" ”

"In the future, you don't have to call yourself a people's daughter, you can call yourself a minister or a concubine", Zhu Youxiao said lightly and didn't really care about Wei Min'er, but Wei Min'er couldn't help but tremble after listening to Zhu Youxiao's random sentence, she also understood Zhu Youxiao's intentions, but she still had to say clearly: "Then call yourself a micro-minister, don't dare to be a concubine, please forgive your Majesty!" ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled and didn't speak again.

At this time, there were already more and more marchers and rioters surrounding the location of Daming Daily, and these people stood outside, without talking or fighting, one by one standing there like old monks sitting down and participating in meditation.

And behind Zhu Youxiao, from the attic to the stairs to the gate, it was already full of the editors of Dongchang Fanzi and Daming Daily.

Even the chief writer Zhang Dai didn't know when he was standing inside the gate with a half-zhang long latch, and he was guarding there with a group of compilation gentlemen with a serious face.

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene, and called a Dongchang fan to come over: "Spread my will to the chief writer Mr. Zhang, let him take his compilation gentlemen back to busy themselves, they have thin arms and thin legs can block a few chaotic people, like a bamboo pole like a pestle here Poisoned sun exposure is not good, it is not good, tell them that their battlefield is in the pen battle, after the matter is over, they have to do the final qualitative and finishing work!" ”

……

As the minutes passed, some places were still shouting loudly, and some places were standing there silently like those people in front of Daming Daily.

Class strikes have become a common phenomenon, many school palaces are empty, and Zhang Renxue, the inspector of Nanzhili, was also surrounded by hundreds of students in the yamen at this time, and was forced to impeach Li Mingrui by folding bullets for Colonel Zhu You.

At the same time, due to the impact of the strike, Jinling, Suzhou and Hangzhou and other metropolises have seen garbage that no one cleans up, resulting in sand flying all over the city, and even garbage everywhere.

When a summer rain hits, a foul smell begins to fill the city, but the sewers are clogged due to too much garbage, and the city's water accumulation is even worse.

What is even more serious is that many shops closely related to the people, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, etc., cannot operate, and at the same time, many small and medium-sized businessmen have suffered huge losses, and many people in the market have fallen into famine.

Only some of the people who participated in the march were affected, but the lives of the majority of the people were affected by it.

Even Zhu Youxiao's life was also affected, although he guessed that the parade would be like this, so he ordered the yamen and the people everywhere to extract and reserve food, and the Daming Daily also stocked a lot of food in advance, but it was almost exhausted in a few days, so that he now has to eat porridge every day.

The marchers outside the Daming Daily regularly shouted for a while in the morning and afternoon every day, and at other times they simply sat down to rest, and set up pots on the ground to cook and eat.

Of course, there are also those who can't stand it and leave one after another, and there will be dozens to hundreds of people leaving one after another every day, but there will always be some students who are bewitched and let some people join in.

They were waiting, waiting for His Majesty the Emperor, who was still silent, to come out, and they wanted His Majesty the Emperor in the Forbidden City to come out and grant their request.

But they didn't know that their Emperor Majesty was now surrounded by him, and Zhu Youxiao couldn't return to the palace now, and his series of measures couldn't be carried out, the only thing they could do now was to wait, wait for Qin Botong's two battalions of Praetorian Guards to arrive, and then open the current stalemate.

……

On the Yangtze River, the warships of the Ming Navy (temporarily composed of the Nanjing Caojiang Navy) were used to transport the Praetorian Guards in Jiangbei as soon as they arrived at the lower pass of Jinling City, Qin Botong couldn't wait to lead the two most elite infantry battalions he trained in Xuzhou into the city tower quickly.

The infantry of these two battalions were all Jiangbei soldiers, and they were basically familiar with the hydrological environment, so they did not get seasick, and as soon as they came ashore, they still walked neatly towards Jinling City.

At this time, the periphery of Jinling City was empty, but it was also suitable for the army to march quickly.

"Hurry up to this officer, each battalion organizes a commando team composed of three-eyed guns for the vanguard army to forcibly break through in the direction of Jiming Mountain in two ways, remember, this is a battle, and those who dare to stand in the way will be shot as enemies!"

Qin Botong had already learned the news of His Majesty's trapped Daming Daily residence from Dongchang before this, so as soon as he got ashore, he immediately rushed directly here.

For the 300 cavalry and Ye Zhen's entourage, the Praetorian Guards were sent by Zhu Youxiao to the Royal Weaving Bureau, the Royal Bank Branch, the Jiangnan Branch of the Royal Industrial Company and other important places.

The number of people gathered in these places is no less than that of the Daming Daily, and the bloody clashes that broke out are greater, but because of the strength of the Praetorian Guard, the situation there is better, and at least the work in these important places can be carried out as usual.
