Chapter 352: The People Complain of Suffering
"There are priorities, and the division of labor between you and me, there are more places that need you to do when the time comes, how can I let these little things bother you? Don't worry, I can still handle these things. ”
Murong Yin wanted to admit frankly that she was not qualified to know so clearly, but she was afraid that if she said it too bluntly, and then offended people, if Ruan Yuehua suddenly repented and refused to do things, she would need to coax her in turn, which would be a trouble.
It's just that these words are beautiful, Ruan Yuehua is not a fool, and she can't hear the meaning at all. "The reason why you say that is not because you are afraid that I will lose my temper. You were going to hide it from me, weren't you? ”
"Hmph, forget it if you don't say it, you and I are really rare." Ruan Yuehua snorted lightly, got up and walked off the small couch. Murong Yin listened to her tone of euphemism, not like she was really angry, so she didn't chase after her to persuade her.
Anyway, when the time comes, when something happens, with his own ability, who wants to fool him can't say it, and he has to rely on him alone? Ruan Yuehua thought about it, turned around and glanced at Murong Yin, who was leisurely in the room, and felt a burst of disdain in her heart.
As early as when they first cooperated, they felt that Murong Yin was not such an understanding person, but now it seems that this is really the case, if it is not for the fact that he can only rely on him to help now, where would he need to spend time on him.
After the slander, Ruan Yuehua took off the heavy cloak on the hanger, put it on, and returned to the wing where he lived from the most inaccessible path in the palace.
In the Tianji Courtyard, Murong Yin sent away such a troublesome guy as Ruan Yuehua, he stared at the candlestick in front of him in a daze, rubbing a small wooden block in his hand, and gradually became a god.
The imperial court paid grain, what a serious matter it was, as long as the above sentence could put the people of various domains into dire straits. In addition, looking at the emperor's intentions, and the recent actions of the domain, it seems that it is deliberately aimed at the domain of King Li.
Now that the will has not yet come down, Murong Lin is in a hurry to discuss with Murong Yu the method, it is impossible to let the emperor take back his fate, so the rest can only start from the domain and choose a roundabout countermeasure.
When Murong Yin thought about it, a provocative expression involuntarily appeared on his face: Does Murong Lin really want to show his face in front of Murong Yu and establish some meritorious deeds, so that he can successfully inherit the throne of the prince in the future.
However, it was very different from what Murong Yin expected, Murong Lin was really considered by the people. But Murong Yin has always been dissatisfied with Murong Lin, the eldest brother, and coupled with an incident that happened when he was a child, his heart was even more distorted.
But whatever Murong Lin wanted to do, or was working on, Murong Yin would not associate it with a good place. In fact, Murong Lin never regarded him as his competitor at all, and even sympathized with him for not having his mother's care since he was a child, and took special care of him.
In Murong Yin's heart, as long as it was something that could make Murong Lin unhappy, it could make him feel inexplicably satisfied. used to unite with Qi to deal with Feng Xiaoyue, and now he is also intervening.
Since Murong Lin wants to solve the matter quietly and not let the people in the domain know, why don't he add fuel to the fire and make the matter bigger, so big that everyone knows about it, so that Murong Lin can't end it alone.
It was not easy for Honghu Courtyard to analyze the situation clearly, and before he could consider the detailed countermeasures, Murong Yin had already thought about how to destroy it. It's so hard to protect something, but it only takes a snap of a finger to damage it.
Murong Lin returned to the small courtyard tired, everyone in the courtyard had already packed up their things, but fortunately, he also asked Xiao Yun and Xiao Yu to leave a few dishes and chicken soup very intimately. After Murong Lin used it casually, he fell asleep with Feng Xiaoyue and the others.
The next day, Murong Lin wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, and routinely patrolled around, but as a result, he had just appeared at the gate of the city on a tall horse, and several peasants ran in from outside the city and knelt down in front of him.
"This is the prince of the world, please be merciful, don't rob our family's food!"
The peasants kneeling on the ground, all unkempt and dark-skinned, some skinny, some fat and abnormal, looked like peasants who were persecuted by life outside the city gates.
They just look very pitiful, but what they say is confusing. Especially the guards at the gate of the city, when they saw this situation at first glance, they didn't know, and they thought that Murong Lin had done something wrong behind his back.
Immediately, Murong Lin finally controlled the reins, so that the horses were not frightened, and stepped on the bodies of those people. The guards didn't know what they meant? But he already had a plan in his heart.
The holy decree has obviously not been delivered yet, and there are only a few people who know about this matter, and even Hu Rihui, the county magistrate of Yanwu City, does not know it very thoroughly, how can these people who live outside the city know.
"You get up first, we have something to say, but don't worry, since we are in the domain, we will inevitably protect the peace of the people, you must not believe those groundless nonsense."
Murong Lin frowned and persuaded repeatedly, but these words had no effect, those people had been stubbornly blocking in front of the horses, and they just refused to leave.
"How can this be groundless? Originally, the news came from the city, and now almost everyone knows about it, and other people's families are not too worried, but a few of us are really poor."
The few peasants who described the withered trees were noisy indiscriminately, but Murong Lin could still hear the general meaning clearly.
"Coupled with the lack of water some time ago, the seedlings in the field have not had time to grow, and the family is only left with the sown grain, I am afraid that it will be a problem to eat, and there is still excess grain to hand in."
"We also know that it is not easy for the prince to manage the domain, but we really have no choice, so we have to be cheeky and ask for it, the prince of love must be aware of everything and make decisions for us."
After that, the men lay on the ground again, kowtowing continuously. The land at the gate of the city was the most ordinary dirt road, and when the weather was dry, the wind was full of smoke and dust, and they didn't care about the mess and choking, but just stayed there stubbornly.
Murong Lin frowned when he heard this, and hurriedly got down from his horse and beckoned the guard to help them up, and after reassuring them, he asked someone to take care of them and send them home.
It is not easy for the people in the domain, Murong Lin knows in his heart, if it weren't for Feng Xiaoyue, who has improved the situation here a lot after he came, I am afraid that there will be more and more people like this.
In addition, what made Murong Lin even more puzzled was the first sentence that those individuals said. First of all, who leaked the matter of the imperial court's grain requisition, where did they get the news, and what methods did they use to spread it after the curfew at night.
Not to mention, it will always be possible to find out in the future, but what makes Murong Lin feel embarrassed is that he only discussed countermeasures in the palace the night before, and the next day he was all over the city, and the speed of this spread was inevitably too fast.
The matter of paying grain was originally deliberately made by the imperial court to find trouble, and the palace had no choice but to act according to its wishes. This was originally a stone that pressed on Murong Lin's heart, but now that it has been spread, the people will definitely think that the palace is in collusion with the imperial court and treats the people of Li harshly.
When the time comes, all the peasants on one side will be terrified, for fear that the little grain they have stored in their homes will be snatched away for no reason. What's more, they will definitely begin to reject the management of the royal palace.
Through the chaos, the people in the city are still a trivial matter to be passive and slack, and from time to time there will be robberies, thefts, and public beatings, which will be a joint reaction after the incident has become a big one.
The more Murong Lin thought about it, the more frightened he became, and hurriedly rode on a fast horse to discuss with Zhang Fengyu, striving to minimize the impact on the people in the city. But this rumor could not be hidden, and before noon, a small gathering began in the city.
The palace must have already known about it, Murong Lin and Zhang Fengyu were caught off guard, so they could only go to the palace first, explain clearly to Murong Yu, and discuss the future.
Listening to the news that came from time to time, Murong Lin and Zhang Fengyu were both reprimanded, and Murong Yin felt extremely happy in his heart.
As for the outside, Feng Xiaoyue wanted to take the time to go out and look around to see the situation in the city, but whenever she walked under the teahouse, she could almost hear a group of people gathered together, saying that the palace was not.
Say that all the officials in the world are breathing out of the same nostrils, and they used to behave like the people, but at this time they can be regarded as revealing their true colors. These are just a few of them, and the rest is even more unpleasant.
In the private room next to the teahouse, it was Feng Wuwu who came out to watch curiously after hearing the wind. Feng Wuwu drank the tea cooked by Linwu himself, and listened to the voice coming from the opposite side, which made her feel shocked and very puzzled.
Obviously, he didn't do anything, how could the views of the people in the city on the palace be so extreme? Isn't it always rumored that Murong Yu is diligent in his government and loves the people in the domain, and is much loved?
And with the time he spent here, Feng Wuwu was still able to be sure that the legend was true.
For this reason, Feng Wuwu pinched the cup and listened to the sound of outsiders, and forgot to drink tea.
"There are many people in this world who want to be in the limelight, even if Prince Li is a good person, what can he do? All men are for their own sake. If you can't do anything about stability in normal times, this is the best opportunity. ”
