Listening to everyone's voices, Li Guanqi nodded with satisfaction, turned around and smiled at the old man and said, "Old man, you should believe in my identity now, right?" If you have anything to say, just say it. ”

The old man trembled and looked at the crowd of onlookers, and then at the young emperor in front of him, who looked gentle and elegant, pounced, knelt down again, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, all the people of Liuhe Village, a total of 836 people, are now jointly suing, accusing the prime minister of the current dynasty, Zu Donglai, of forcibly enclosing the land, and harming us with no fixed place to live......

Li Guanqi glanced back at Zu Donglai, turned around again, and deliberately said with a calm face: "Old man, no matter who you are suing. DID YOU KNOW? Suing the officials with the people, is already guilty first? Even if you win this lawsuit, you will be exiled for 3,000 miles. ”

"Your Majesty, we people, there is no home, there is no field, there is no place to go!" The old man burst into tears and said excitedly, "As long as I can win this royal lawsuit, I will admit the old man after being exiled for eight thousand miles!" ”

"Heroic!" Li Guanqi struck with both palms, smiled at the old man and said, "Old man, I have taken your case, and I forgive you for your innocence!" Now you can tell me about your grievances, and I promise you in front of the civil and military officials and the people of this capital that I will handle it for you immediately, how about it? ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" Without waiting for the old man to reply, the surrounding onlookers had already begun to spontaneously praise Li Guanqi. Zu Donglai's brows also wrinkled deeper and deeper......

"Your Majesty, you are really the first-class benevolent monarch in the world. The grass people have lived for such a long time, and they have never seen an emperor like you. The old man's tears rippled with excitement, his dry palm tightly held Li Guanqi's hand, and he cried bitterly, "Actually, the grass people also know that the emperor must have something very important to do today, and the grass people shouldn't come to disturb you, but ...... There's really nothing we can do...... But as long as we still have the slightest way to live, we will never do such a rebellious thing as blocking the Holy Driver......"

Li Guanqi saw that the old man couldn't get to the point, frowned slightly, patted the old man's hand gently, and said: "Old man, it's not a way for you to cry like this, if you have any grievances, just say it, and I can redress your grievances!" ”

Only then did the old man realize that he had been talking for a long time, and he hadn't even said why he had sued the emperor, so he quickly wiped his tears and said, "Your Majesty, please listen to what the grass people tell you." We are all ordinary people in Liuhe Village at the foot of the Purple Mountain. Since the founding of Taizu, we have lived in this Liuhe Village, and it has been more than 100 years. The imperial tombs of Emperor Taizu, Taizong, Yingzong, Zhenzong, Wuzong and Muzong are all placed on the Purple Mountain, and people like Caomin, who live in Liuhe Village, are so happy in their hearts because they are close to the dragon vein and bathed in the emperor's grace......"

I think it's because I'm old and I love to nag, and as soon as the old man's conversation box is opened, it's like a surging river, endless, and like the Yellow River overflowing, it's out of control......

Li Guanqi's hand was placed in the old man's hand, he stood quietly, listened silently, nodded from time to time, and did not interrupt the old man's words again. The crowd of onlookers around them also held their breath, for fear of missing a word.

"Originally, the grass people waited for a good stay, but no one expected that people would sit at home, and disaster would come from heaven!" As the old man spoke, his words changed sharply, "More than ten days ago, a group of officials suddenly came to the village, saying that our Liuhe Village was taken by a senior official in the court, and he wanted to build some yin house here, and asked us to move out of Liuhe Village within ten days. Your Majesty, when Taizu founded the country, he swore to the world that he would never enclose land, but he never thought that he would engage in this kind of forcible occupation of land today, you say, what is the reason? ”

Li Guanqi pursed his lips, with a hint of anger on his face, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he didn't speak for a long time. The crowd of onlookers couldn't bear it, and someone asked what everyone wanted to ask: "Old man, do you know which official of the DPRK and China wants to occupy that piece of land?" ”

The old man glanced at Li Guanqi, frowned, and then turned around and shouted to the crowd of onlookers: "At that time, I also asked the official who came to give the order, what do you guess that official said?" ”

"How?" Li Guanqi asked coldly.

"The official said that the people who fancy our land in Liuhe Village can't even be provoked by the emperor, let's not ask so much, be obedient and move quickly! The grass people don't understand, is there an official in our big Qian Dynasty who is bigger than the emperor? ”

Li Guanqi gritted his teeth, glanced back at Zu Donglai, his face twitched, and asked in a deep voice: "Old man, you go on, what happened later?" ”

"Later? If he didn't make it clear, we wouldn't move, and when the official left, he told us that if we didn't leave Liuhe Village on time, we would bear the consequences! The old man said angrily: "Your Majesty, listen, isn't this threatening us?" The people of our Liuhe Village were all people who followed Taizu to fight the country, even the old man, I also once followed Emperor Wuzong to the battlefield, and crawled out of the pile of dead people, this integrity is still there. ”

The more the old man spoke, the more excited he became, and he blushed and said: "As the saying goes, if you don't fight for steamed buns, if you don't have any evidence, we will naturally not move, so we ignore them." Unexpectedly, three days ago, a team of people suddenly came, under the banner of Ying Tianfu, all armed with weapons, and cut down when they saw people, saying that we occupied some of the lord's land, and that if we did not obey the lord's orders, it would be regarded as a rebellion. ”

The old man glared at Li Guanqi and said, "Your Majesty, the grass people don't understand, why did they rob our land, but instead we became rebels?" We couldn't get angry, so we fought with them, but we were unarmed, how could we be their opponents? In desperation, the grass people and others had no choice but to leave Liuhe Village.

But we can't swallow this breath, thinking about going to the imperial city to knock on the drum to sue the emperor, yesterday I happened to hear that the emperor was going out of the palace today, so the grass people brought the whole village to ask the emperor, is this world or not the world of your Li family? Is it still not the descendant of Taizu Taizong who is sitting on the dragon chair? ”

The more Li Guanqi listened, the more silent he became, his face became more and more gloomy, and he frowned tightly and did not say a word.

"Old man, who is that lord?" Someone from the crowd of onlookers asked again.

"This person is Zu Donglai, the prime minister of the first-class loyal and Yi Boguan." The old man said emotionally, "It stands to reason that I, a flat-headed common man, call the prime minister by his name, which is really disrespectful. But this prime minister doesn't even pay attention to the emperor, isn't it even more disrespectful? Your Majesty, can you make the decision for us? If we can't, then we will fight to the death, rush into the capital, and ask for justice from this prime minister! ”
