Chapter 695: Behind the Scenes (1)
Xiao Xiao's voice was not very loud this time, but every word was sonorous and powerful, and it pierced into Governor Yang's eardrum domineeringly.
"As an official, do you only want fame and fortune? At the beginning, the Holy Lord led our group of people to overthrow the mediocre tyranny of the Northern Hebei Kingdom, not for his own selfish desires, but for the sake of the people of the world. Governor Yang is not a dull person, since he has ambitions, why not start with the people first? ”
Yang Zhifu's heart was not convinced, but after today's confrontation, Yang Zhifu has fully realized the power of the person in front of him, he slapped him in the face in public, and in turn asked him to beg him to calm down the incident, so far, although he is reprimanding him, these words are also in front of the people to save some face for him.
He really wants this face.
It was Governor Yang who hid his face in shame and sighed: "How can this official hope that the people under his rule will work so hard? However, natural and man-made disasters continue year after year, and it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice! ”
Xiao Xiao narrowed his eyes.
Yang Zhifu's words were beautiful, and he picked them cleanly, but he threw the pot to the world, and indirectly pushed the responsibility to Jinshang.
Xiao Xiao didn't care about Li Qitian, but he cared about the suffering of the people. His first priority when he came to the south was to maintain stability, once there was a war or a civil uprising, the last unlucky person could only be the people, and now it is easy to calm down the people's grievances, and he can't make waves again because of Governor Yang's prevarication.
Xiao Xiao turned to face everyone and said with a sapping smile: "Okay, don't be sad, folks, look, the prefect has heard everyone's voice, arranged accommodation, arranged everyone to work, ensured everyone's safety, and severely punished Gao Wenyao, these prefects have agreed!" Let's let the prefect say a few words, shall we? ”
Xiao Xiao turned sideways to avoid it and handed the scene to Governor Yang's hands.
Governor Yang coughed, where did he agree? This is clearly what Xiao Xiao promised instead of him. But the matter has come to this point, Governor Yang has no other way, in order to prevent these vicious people from causing trouble again, he can only pinch his nose and come down, raising his hands to signal everyone to be quiet.
"This government is not a person who does not know the sufferings of the people. In fact, even if everyone didn't come to look for Gao Wenyao today, the government would have long been unaccustomed to his perverse behavior, and the reason why he was not severely punished was because of insufficient evidence some time ago, so it took a long time to investigate and be implemented. This government is planning to introspect on himself, and he has no idea, but I can't imagine that you are one step ahead of this government. ”
Governor Yang wrinkled his nose, the smell of horse manure on his face was too choking, but now he could only endure himself, he just wanted to make a quick decision and quickly turn the people's attention elsewhere.
Gao Dianshi was pressed to the ground, and when he heard that he wanted to dispose of himself, he was already frightened. But there was still a glimmer of hope in my heart. Because Governor Yang talked to him, knowing that there was someone behind him, he would not be willing to offend the person behind him if he wanted to come to Governor Yang.
But now Governor Yang is obviously going to use him to block Youyou's mouth!
Gao Dianshi struggled anxiously and shouted, "My lord! You can't be like this, I'm ......"
"Shut his mouth and take him down!"
"Yes!"
The entourage who had been beaten by the refugees for a long time had long been holding their breath, if it weren't for Gao Dianshi's troubles, why would they suffer such a crime with Lord Futai? What's more, Gao Dianshi is usually domineering, and even the subordinates who follow him are rarely tired of him, but they don't hurt the harmony on weekdays.
Everyone immediately received the order, grabbed a handful of dirt and stuffed it into Gao Dianshi's mouth, and lifted him up with his hands behind his back.
Gao Dianshi struggled desperately, wanting to spit out the mud in his mouth, and wanted to distinguish it for himself loudly. But Governor Yang made up his mind to cut him, where would he be given a chance to argue?
"Gao Dian Shi is careless about human life, the evidence is conclusive, take it down and execute it immediately!" Governor Yang flicked his sleeves with a righteous and awe-inspiring attitude, as if he was not covered with dirt on his face, but in the hall in an official robe.
"Good! Good! The prefect is wise! ”
The people were stunned for a moment, and then immediately jumped up and shouted loudly, cheering loudly, and the cheers of nearly a thousand people shook the surrounding houses and resonated. This is the first time that they, as the lowest level of the people, have risked their lives to fight and get the desired result.
No matter how aggrieved Governor Yang was, he couldn't help but show a little pride when facing such a situation of the people. He felt as if he had eaten honey in his heart, and even forgot the stench on his face for a while.
Qin Yi watched this quietly, and couldn't help but quietly stepped forward to stand beside him.
Xiao Xiao's five senses were extraordinary, and she naturally noticed it from the first step of Qin Yining's movement, and when she walked to her side, she immediately held her slightly cool fingers with her big hand and held them tightly in her hands.
Although he didn't turn his head to look at her, but stared ahead with a serious face and relieved eyes, his hands were warm and dry, and he often used his fingers to naughtily scratch Qin Yining's palm, which provoked Qin Yining to laugh lowly.
The two stood in front of Pingnanjun and Jinghuwei side by side, and their warm appearance made people feel warm and envious when they saw it.
Wei Chiyan, who was standing in the corner of the wall and was deeply shocked, looked at Qin Yining's side face blankly, and for a moment had the urge to run away with face.
What does it mean to be a failure? That's what he is. lost the throne, lost the family, lost the hearts of the people, and he couldn't even get the heart of a little woman.
Gu Shixiong saw that Wei Chiyan was standing still and only looking at Qin Yining, still with a deeply shocked expression, and the disappointment in his heart was even worse. It's all come to this juncture, isn't the most important thing the overall situation? How could he still be in the mood to think about women?
Gu Shixiong shook his head in frustration, the country is easy to change, and his nature is difficult to change, unless his thoughts are thorough, as long as he sees the Qin family, the position of the country and the mountain in Yu Chiyan's heart will immediately move back.
Just as the two of them were thinking wildly, the people on the corner of the street were already nervously rushing in one direction.
I saw that place, Gao Dianshi had been pressed and knelt on the ground, and an executioner raised the ghost head knife high, and when Gao Dianshi shook his head violently, he slashed down with a knife.
Blood splattered on the powder wall opposite, which was the backyard wall of Gao's mansion. The warm, scarlet liquid melted a thin layer of snow on the ground, and round heads gurgled to the side.
The Gao family, who had been stepping on the ladder and climbing on the courtyard wall to look out to see the situation, screamed in surprise by this scene, and fell down from the ladder at once.
"Oh no, no, my lord has been beheaded!"
The people replied in a panic.
When Gao Jinshi heard this, his eyes rolled and he fainted.
No matter how the Gao family jumps, they will never dare to open the door to reason with the Yang prefect and the people.
Everyone finally let out a bad breath and cheered, and the joy boiled, as if they had obtained the most precious treasure in the world. The laughter contrasted sharply with the loud cries in the Gao Mansion.
Yang Zhifu ordered the people around him to arrange for the people to eat - no one ran the porridge factory, but the Chinese New Year's Eve could not let these people go hungry, and then the people were dissatisfied and troubled, maybe the situation would be worse than now.
Qin Yining saw that Governor Yang had arranged everything in an orderly manner, so he quietly scratched his palm.
Xiao Xiao's big hand immediately shook her back, and said goodbye to Governor Yang: "Lord Yang, farewell." ”
Governor Yang turned around and twitched the corners of his mouth.
It is clear that he used troops to enter the city without authorization, not only can he not be impeached, but he also has to thank others, and if you think about it carefully, the conditions he promised were not his own volition at all, and he would fight wherever he was pointed.
The feeling of being used and thanking others cannot be expressed in words.
"Thank you for your help, the prince will go slowly."
"Lord Yang stays."
Xiao Xiao turned around and put his arms around Qin Yining's waist, put her on the horse's back, and then easily jumped behind her. The Pingnan Army and Jinghuwei also got on their horses one after another.
When the refugees saw that they were about to lead the army away, they shouted loudly: "Thank you, Lord Wang!" The prince is a good man, and there is a good reward......"
Good?
Governor Yang's nose was crooked, and he stretched his face and ordered his subordinates: "Hurry up and set up the porridge shed first, and the grain will be purchased first." ”
With that, he left in a hurry.
There is no way, his body is dirty, his face is full of horse manure, he is afraid that he will have to wash off a layer of skin to feel more comfortable.
Seeing that from the beginning to the end of a farce, Gu Shixiong did not see the result he had worked so hard to see, and the frustration and anger in his heart were about to boil.
"The surname is really lucky, or is it good to plan?"
On the way back, Gu Shixiong couldn't help but ask himself in a low voice.
Yu Chiyan was immersed in a stunned mood, and was stunned for a moment when she heard Gu Shixiong's voice, and only after a long time did she pull the cloak on her shoulders, bury her face in the collar of white fox fur, and said in a low voice: "I think I really have this luck." He chuckled again, "His luck is actually on the Qin family." If he hadn't known that the Qin clan was there, he wouldn't have come. ”
"Qin Clan, Qin Clan, why does the prince always think about the Qin Clan?" Gu Shixiong was not lightly affected by Yu Chiyan's lack of growth, but he couldn't attack, so he could only hold back his anger and whisper, "If you come to find the Qin Clan, why do you have to bring so many troops?" If this matter is related to the Qin family, I believe that the two of them are united. ”
Yu Chiyan looked at Gu Shixiong in a daze, and his chaotic thoughts gradually became clear.
"So this time, it's very likely that the surname Xiao is making trouble?"
Gu Shixiong nodded and said in a deep voice: "When you don't understand something, you just need to analyze the occurrence of this matter and who will profit in the end." Think about it, after making such a big fuss, the appearance of the surname Xiao not only solved the problem, but also made those ordinary people look at him differently, how much benefit did he get? ”
"That's right." Yu Chiyan said in a deep voice: "The surname Xiao used to be a terrible figure in our Dayan, and the common people were not afraid of him, and even the country was broken because he led troops to besiege the city. ”
"But what do you think of the people now? Who still scolds him? Gu Shixiong sighed: "This time, he took the opportunity to gain a firm foothold in the old capital, not only showed his wrists, but also invited the hearts of the people, we plan so much, it is him who picks up the cheap!" I don't know how to explain this matter to the big treasurer! ”
As soon as he heard the words "big shopkeeper", Yu Chiyan also frowned nervously.
