The officials did not dare to approach the hungry people, and there was not even a trace of pity in their eyes, and they were afraid that these people would come close and dirty their bodies, so the officials were afraid to hide from them. These are the officials who have always prided themselves on loving the people like sons and doing whatever it takes for the people!

Under their rule, the people are so difficult, where have they gone to do practical things for the people in the past? So the hungry people are full of hatred for these pot-bellied officials!

Hundreds of officials went to court, hiding from the hungry people. The hungry people are surrounded by soldiers and brave soldiers, in case some of these hungry people have evil intentions to murder hundreds of officials, and if something goes wrong, they can't afford to eat one or two. Therefore, the hungry people could not get close to the hundred officials, and they could only keep screaming, hoping that one or two officials would have mercy on them.

What a pity! These officials are full of pretending to be promoted and make a fortune, and the party fights with each other.

There are two familiar faces among these hungry people, and at first glance, ah, there is nothing wrong with that! It's Yao Dongzhao and Lu Xiangsheng! Yao Dongzhao and some old people had a book on their heads, they just wanted to "write to the emperor", but unfortunately they didn't talk about the palace gate, and they couldn't even enter the Chengtian Gate, so they could only wait at the right gate of Chang'an.

Because there are too many hungry people in the capital, the usual vigilance has increased a lot, and there are brocade guards and soldiers everywhere, and they will not let the hungry people get closer to the palace gate. Even the hundred officials and the hungry people were separated by soldiers.

Mr. Qian, the Jinyi Guard, shouted at them: "You guys go quickly!" The emperor has already decreed, no need to stay in the capital, leave the capital quickly! Otherwise, they will be arrested and questioned! ”

Lu Xiangsheng can see it clearly, why are so many hungry people so pitiful, and the emperor can't be open and have mercy on them? The manuscript they asked for was difficult to even present to the imperial case for the imperial review!

Today is the day of the Chang Dynasty, so Yao Dongzhao and a group of hungry people have been waiting at the place where Baiguan entered the court at the right gate of Chang'an.

Huang got up, he saw Lu Xiangsheng and Yao Dongzhao among the hungry people, he was stunned, he wanted to go over to say hello, but he didn't dare, because he knew that there were people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei here, and he was afraid that he would affect them!

In fact, Huang Qi came this time to let the people of Dongchang arrest him, so that he could see Zhang Biwu and Song Yi, he has always been relieved of Zhang Biwu and Song Yi, especially Zhang Biwu, I don't know what is the current situation of Zhang Biwu.

Lu Xiangsheng and Yao Dongzhao also saw Huang Qi, but they didn't say anything, they knew that Huang Qi was not a ruthless person, and he didn't come to recognize them, this must be for a reason. After all, they also knew the news that Zhang Biwu was captured and taken to the imperial prison, because Zhang Biwu committed the felony of not reporting and dereliction of duty, which led to the killing of King Yong'an. Such a felony is punishable by beheading!

Lu Xiangsheng and Yao Dongzhao understood, and they pretended not to know Huang Qi, but they also saw that there were already people around Huang Qi who were paying attention to him.

Of course, Huang Qi knew that he was staying away now, he was walking fast, and these people immediately followed Huang Qi. Huang Qi can be arrested by Dongchang, but he can't be arrested when hundreds of officials go to court, so that Gao Qiqian can frame him for wanting to murder hundreds of officials, which will harm Zhang Biwu!

The reason why Huang Qi chose to come to the right gate of Chang'an was to attract the attention of Dongchang, so that he could be arrested and there would be no suspicion. Now Huang Qi pinned all his hopes on Xuan Jianhao.

The hungry people wanted to approach the right gate of Chang'an, but the officers and soldiers in brocade clothes did not allow them to approach the right gate of Chang'an, and drove them away with water and fire sticks, knives, and swords. At this time, the hundred officials went to court, and when the soldiers and the brocade guards saw the arrival of the big officials, they drove them farther away. lest the great officials see it, and they will be punished.

There is a Dengwen drum courtyard outside the right gate of Chang'an, three small halls to the east, there is a small building hanging drum next to it, there is a department. Provincial officials take turns on duty here. According to the law of the Ming Dynasty: the people are wronged, the yamen who should be in charge does not speak for Shenli, and the general administration department does not convey it.

But today, there are a lot of Jinyi Banner schools standing near the Dengwen Drum Temple, one by one, like wolves and tigers, so that the people can't get close. The people saw that the right gate of Chang'an was not good, so they turned from the chessboard street to the Daming Gate and came to the left gate of Chang'an, unfortunately, the situation of the left gate of Chang'an and the situation of the right gate of Chang'an is the same.

Some old people are completely desperate, squatting on the ground and crying bitterly, or looking into the distance in a daze!

But some of the old people still did not give up, they led everyone to avoid the middle road, kneeling a little farther away from the East Chang'an Gate, seeing that the officials from the east city had passed the court, they had to beg the brocade officials guarding the door to accept their books and send them to the palace.

The brocade officials only scolded and refused to accept it. They thought, let's be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, kneel down like this, and sooner or later someone will take pity on them and play the emperor about their "writing to the emperor". They knelt in disarray. Someone was so hungry that he fell to his knees. Someone was very weak and groaned.

When Lu Xiangsheng saw this, he was shaking his head, he was complaining that Chongzhen didn't let people quickly solve the people's suffering! It's going to lose the hearts and minds of the people! Although Lu Xiangsheng knew Chongzhen's character well, he felt that Chongzhen's inaction was extremely wrong.

But now what is Lu Xiangsheng, he can't go to Chongzhen, in the eyes of everyone, Lu Xiangsheng is a dead person. Lu Xiangsheng can't go to admonish, otherwise, he may harm Zhang Biwu!

Lu Xiangsheng saw that Huang Qi was caught, and Huang Qi just glanced at Lu Xiangsheng and them. Lu Xiangsheng whispered: "Why did Zhengli deliberately let the spies of the East Factory catch him?" It is said that Biwu is now executed, he should have a useful body to save Zhang Biwu! What a strangeness! ”

Yao Dongzhao also said: "Yes! I don't know what is in mind in the heart of Lu Dao Zhengli! Zhang Biwu was arrested, this is really worrying! I hope Biwu can be fine! ”

Huang Gonggong accompanied Fei Yangguo on the patrol, Fei Yangguo frowned tightly, and said, "What's the matter?" Why didn't you see Lingbao and other people who came to petition? ”

Huang Gonggong also said: "Yes! I just didn't see it, and I thought it was strange! Fei Yangguo said: "If you can see Lingbao and other people from the three places to petition, you can convict Zhang Biwu of capital crime!" ”

Fei Yangguo waved his fist hard and said, "I have to inform Hu Da who is hiding in the spirit treasure again, I want to know what happened to him!" Why can't even this little thing be done! ”

Huang Gonggong didn't dare to say anything, because Gao Qiqian said that he would treat Fei Yangguo well, and Fei Yangguo was as if he was there. He could only remain silent.

Fei Yangguo sighed, with a trace of sadness in his eyes: "Forget it! Even if someone without a spiritual treasure comes to make Zhang Biwu's rigidity a certainty, I think Chongzhen will kill Zhang Biwu! "Feiyango's sorrow shows that he has to harm his brother because he is his master, and his brotherly affection is still there!

Huang Gonggong pointed and said, "It must be the eunuch who announced the decree!" "Fei Yangguo looked at it, didn't he? Chongzhen sent someone to announce the decree, ordering the hungry people to leave the capital quickly, and they could no longer stay in the capital, if they stayed any longer, they would be driven by force!

After the father-in-law who announced the decree left, the wolf-like brocade guard began to drive away, constantly driving the hungry people out of this place as soon as possible.

Even if the hungry people were full of anger, they were helpless, they looked at the Forbidden City, originally thinking that the emperor would be the master for them and would save them! But the emperor didn't save them! They have no hope, so who else can they count on?

Although Emperor Chongzhen decreed that severe disasters and moderate disasters and light disasters will be treated differently, but whether the disaster area is a serious disaster area or a medium disaster area, the light disaster area is determined by officials, most of these officials are greedy, in order to continue to collect taxes and have more money into the account, they will be in good conscience to designate the severely affected area as a light disaster area.

Yao Dongzhao came to report this fact to Chongzhen, hoping that Chongzhen could know the Tao and thus save others, but now their recital cannot be presented to the emperor at all. It seems that the emperor's petition to the people is not to be neglected, not to ask for the people's lives, but to be troublesome, and to drive the people away in one fell swoop.

Under the drive of the wolf-like soldiers, Yao Dongzhao and Lu Xiangsheng also had to leave, Yao Dongzhao was supporting Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng only kept sighing, he was lamenting Chongzhen's mistreatment of the people, Chongzhen would make him lose the hearts of the people.

No, the hungry people who came to petition were so angry! When they even have the last hope petition shattered, they will no longer have any illusions about the Ming Dynasty, so they can only unite to overthrow the Ming Dynasty!

This is what Lu Xiangsheng is worried about for Chongzhen, and he also feels that Chongzhen's ignorance of the people and forcing the people to go to a dead end is a very bad step.

At this time, the court and the ministers were deliberating, and the ministers first said that Zhang Xianzhong was defeated as a tiger, and then said that the situation in Henan was not optimistic.

There are countless rats and dogs who steal thousands of people, such as a dragon, Zhang Juanzi, Song Jiang, and Yuan Laoshan. And Linying a dragon, Shouzhou Yuan Laoshan, its disciples are especially numerous, chopping wood and breaking Jun, going back and forth to the suburbs of Liang and Song Dynasty without a void day, day by day.

These bandits are not very powerful, the most terrifying, terrible thing is that Li Zicheng's soldiers will be directed at Kaifeng at any time. That's what makes people upset!

Chongzhen looked at the ministers, none of the ministers could come up with an idea, they all said that Kaifeng City is high and deep, the city is strong, and Li Zicheng is unbreakable.

Chongzhen knew that it was useless to discuss it any longer, and the officials of the Manchu Dynasty could not come up with any practical ideas except empty words, big words, and nothing else. He didn't say whether Li Zicheng would attack Kaifeng, but instead asked the Criminal Department how Zhang Biwu's case was.

Oh, yes! Whether Zhang Biwu lives or dies depends on how the Criminal Department decides!
