The revolt of the civilians was huge, but it happened suddenly, something that no one expected, and many people were unable to react.

At this time, Ah Fu was in the courtyard, watching Wei Rong's subordinates hand him the latest clues about the group of people in the Donglin Kingdom.

He was glimpsing a glimpse of the power structure of Donglin Kingdom from the contradiction between Pei Ling and Hu Ling, and carefully thinking about how to use the national characteristics of Donglin Kingdom to create some trouble for Donglin Kingdom, but he saw Mrs. Lin coming in a hurry and was brought to him by the housekeeper.

"What's wrong?" Apo asked.

Although he informed Mrs. Lin of his current residence, Mrs. Lin couldn't completely let go of Wei Rong, so she wouldn't come here to find Ah Cheng in person.

Whatever is there, they send someone to spread the word.

Therefore, now that Ah Pu saw Mrs. Lin, he knew that something very serious and urgent had happened outside, and his face became solemn in an instant.

"Your Highness."

Because of the urgency of the situation, Mrs. Lin simply called Ah Pu, and then went straight to the point and said to Apu,

"There was an accident in the city, and the people didn't know why, so they organized themselves to resist, and now some of them are gathered around the official office, threatening the official office, demanding that they be sentenced for cheating, and the other part is scattered in the streets of the city, fighting back against what the nobles have done to them." Ah Pu could be said to have a good night's sleep, but for Wei Rong and the others in this night, this night was sleepless.

The person Wei Rong was looking for was actually an acquaintance of them.

If any of them were here from the Night Crow or the Night Weng, they would find that the place where Wei Rong came was the Beppu of the old palace man who they came to check Wei Lan's clues.

Wei Rong handed the jade card to the doorman, and after seeing it outside the door, he let Wei Rong enter the door.

He asked Wei Rong to wait in the hall for a while, and then invited Wei Zhong out.

Wei Zhongshou was called out from his dream, but he didn't see any anger or dissatisfaction on his face, he still looked gentle and kind, but seemed to see through everything.

He looked at Wei Rong, his face seemed to be a little surprised, and he asked the left and right who were serving him if anything had happened recently, and then he briefly told Wei Zhongshi.

After Wei Zhongshou roughly understood, he showed a clear look, and there was something else in his eyes when he looked at Wei Rong.

Wei Rong bowed to Wei Zhong and said very respectfully: "Visiting late at night, Xiaowen is really a little ashamed in his heart. But this matter is very important, if Xiaowen doesn't ask, he is really a little relieved, so he came to you, hoping to get some answers from you. ”

Wei Zhongshou sighed secretly in his heart, but his face was still the same expression, as if he was sure of something, and asked Wei Rong rhetorically:

"You can indeed get some answers to your questions from me, but I have a question for you here, that is, what are your thoughts now, what is it, and do you still have the heart to fight for the throne?"

Hearing this, Wei Rong raised his head and glanced at Wei Zhongshi.

He found that Wei Zhongshi's gaze seemed to have the power to penetrate people's hearts.

Being looked at by Wei Zhongshi like this, Wei Rong felt as if his heart was chuckled and seen through.

Wei Rong couldn't help but shake the hand in his sleeve, and there was a hint of confusion and hesitation on his face.

But this hesitation was quickly suppressed by Wei Rong.

When he raised his head again, his face was already determined.

He said to Wei Zhongshi: "Originally, I returned to Dadu with a heart of unwillingness and hatred, and at that time, I did have ambitions for the top position.

But now, I don't think so. ”

Wei Zhongshou glanced at Wei Rong's expression, and was sure that Wei Rong's heart was indeed as he said now, and he was not as ambitious about the throne as he was when he first met Wei Rong.

He suddenly smiled and said as if he understood: "You have this change of mind, have you encountered any unexpected people or things?" ”

Wei Rong was slightly surprised for a moment, then shook his head and laughed helplessly,

"I really can't hide anything from you.

Speaking of which, Xiaowen is indeed because he met some strange but excellent people, which made me have this idea now. ”

"Can you talk to me?" Wei Zhongshou asked with a smile.

Wei Rong also laughed, his expression was already much lighter,

"Wei Zhongshou wants to ask, Xiaowen is naturally going to listen to you here, and these people I met also have a certain relationship with the incident I am encountering now."

"Oh, what kind of person?" Wei Zhongshou couldn't help but be a little curious.

Wei Rong didn't directly say who the person was, but directly asked what he wanted to ask Wei Zhongshi,

"Wei Zhong has been in the palace for so many years, and he has been with Wei Lan for a long time, so naturally it is until something more insider. Wei Lan once revealed something to me, but I didn't believe it much at the time, but now, I have to rethink it. ”

Wei Rong's words were not clear, but Wei Zhongshou still understood what Wei Rong meant.

He raised his head, squinted at Wei Rong, and said, "It seems that you have indeed met some very capable people, so that you can think about these things."

But it's a pity that I don't know all the things back then, I only know that Wei Lan once locked himself in the house after he came back from outside the palace once, and then he changed. ”

"At that time, didn't Wei Lan look for you to inquire about something?" Wei Rong asked.

"He didn't ask me directly, but it just means that he knew." Wei Zhongshou recalled the events at that time and said abruptly,

"Actually, I've always wanted to hide this matter, but it's a pity that ...... The later tragedies also started because of this incident, although I didn't expect that Wei Lan would really be able to do that thing ruthlessly.

Either way, I'm a guilty person.

If you really saw that child, you wouldn't have to come to me to verify anything. In short, Wei Lan and I will not excuse ourselves from what happened back then, =.

In those days, there was nothing unspeakable and unspeakable, there was no bitterness, it was all a decision made by us freely, so we were all guilty. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Zhongshou whispered something to the left and right, and then saw the left and right hurrying away, and after a while, he directly brought back a few pieces of silk cloth.

After Wei Zhongshou saw that the left and right came back, he waved his hand directly, and asked the left and right to put these pieces of silk cloth in Wei Rong's hands.

"These are the things I should have given to that kid a long time ago.

Now I'm going to hand these things over to you and let you make this final choice.

If you have it in mind, give it to him. Once he knew these things, everything would be revealed.

But this is also the last selfishness of this old man, that is, to put this last choice in your hands. ”

Wei Rong took the pieces of silk cloth and felt that he had a thousand catties in his hands.

He looked at Wei Zhongshi's somewhat tired face, and finally retreated and left Wei Zhongshi's Beppu.

His visit seemed to have gained nothing, but in fact, it had already gained a lot.

Although Wei Rong did not directly say Apu's identity, from Wei Zhongshi's words, he already knew that Wei Zhongshou knew that Apo had returned to Beiao Country, and from Wei Zhongshi's anti-Taiwan independence, he also learned Wei Lan's attitude.

Wei Lan didn't seem to care about what choice he would make, and even if he chose Ah Pu's side, Wei Lan might be more interested.

Wei Lan is different from all of them, he is a pure bad person.

Wei Rong sighed in his heart, looking at the sky that was already slowly dawning, he had already made a decision in his heart.

He refused the kindness of Wei Zhongzhi to send someone to him, and then he was alone, avoiding the eyes of the city, and personally went to seek the truth of the incident in the inn for Apu.

Wei Rong and Ah Pu both have their own things to do, and the city is not as calm as imagined.

After a night of chaos, Wei Jing's side could be said to have found nothing.

His Wei Jing's personal guards, after a night of searching, couldn't help but not find any clues about Pei Ling at all, but instead aroused a lot of anger.

It's not a day or two since the people of the pro-guard were arrogant and unreasonable.

They relied on the fact that they were Wei Jing's cronies, and they didn't take anyone else seriously at all, let alone any ordinary civilians who didn't have any identity.

When they searched people's homes, they would not knock on the door very politely and ask if it was convenient for the family to get up, but they would just knock on the door in a rage, and if no one immediately responded, they would just kick open the door and rush in.

As a result, in the streets and alleys of the capital, there were screams one after another.

They were naturally very angry at this attitude of the pro-guards, but they dared not speak out.

After all, these members of the pro-guard team, each with a weapon in their hands, could do anything to them at any time to show anger and dissatisfaction on their faces.

Waiting for these people from the personal guards, they rummaged through their homes, found nothing, and even took some of their things from their homes, leaving a mess.

In fact, this kind of thing is not the first time that this kind of thing has happened to the people of Beiaoguo.

When this kind of thing happened before, they all endured it, and this time it was just another thing that had happened before, and they should have been used to it.

But this time I don't know why, all of a sudden, they don't want to bear it anymore, especially after hearing about the noble cheating incident that happened in the middle of the night, the nobles have nothing to do, but the woman is going to wait for a cruel trial today, and they, the people, suddenly began to be indignant.

Naturally, they didn't fight for the woman in their hearts, after all, the concept of monogamy has been rooted in their hearts, so all of them are disgusted and shameless about cheating.

The point of their struggle was that it was not just the woman's fault, but her and the nobleman's fault.

If this is the case, then why should only the woman be punished, and the nobleman can be spared lightly?

The inequality between the commoners and the aristocracy is not only evident in this matter.

For example, when it comes to paying taxes.

They civilians have no extra income, especially those ordinary people who live in the city, they can only rely on work or selling small things such as merchants, so strictly speaking, their income is really not high, they can only make ends meet.

However, the nobles, in addition to being able to accept the monthly income of the imperial court, can also control some very profitable commercial lifelines by themselves, so that their monthly income is completely double, or even tripled, the monthly income of the commoners.

But even so, their taxes are so low that they sometimes don't pay taxes at all, and no one punishes them.

Then there is something about the Beiao army.

These civilians are forcibly conscripted every year, and after being conscripted, they are basically ordinary soldiers who contribute the most but have the lowest status.

If it's okay when they don't fight, they will be just tired and hard, and if they are fighting, then they can only be prepared to go and never return.

The aristocracy, on the other hand, does not have to be like this.

Whether or not they join the army is voluntary.

Although there are also mandatory requirements for the army, for the nobles, there will be room for practical operation.

And for the promotion of positions in the army, the nobles also have great preferential treatment.

Nobles in the army, basically will not be ordinary soldiers, although to become the top of the country's generals, it is necessary to rely on some of their own strength, but if you do some small officers in the army, you really don't need any qualifications or ability, as long as you are nobles, you can.

If the former nobles of the Northern Proud Kingdom were still bloody men who would always rush to the front on the battlefield, then the current nobles of the Northern Proud Kingdom are all people who will weigh the pros and cons and seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

They will not be so fearless to rush to the front, no one's life can have their own preciousness.

The various changes in the Northern Proud Kingdom have made the contradictions between the common people and the nobles more intense, which is almost enough to ignite the fuse of these long-standing grievances between them.

And what happened in the capital last night happened to provide these people with an excuse to vent.

Thus, a civilian rebellion began in the capital city of Northern Proud Country, which was the most hierarchical and strictly managed.

With everything they could be used as weapons in their hands, the people ran into the streets where the nobles lived, threw all sorts of rotten vegetables and leaves at their gates, poured cow dung, and then put stones under the traveling nobles' carriages to make them bump into them.

If anyone orders someone to come and arrest them, they will unite to persuade them, and if they join them, they will not do anything, but they will die for the nobles, and they will take that man down together.
