Chapter 167: Turmoil (2)
"Don't get excited, don't be bewitched by others, the emperor is paying attention to you now, you also know that no one can expect this natural and man-made disaster, and the emperor has not given up on you, you think that although you are a group of homeless people, but at least you can still eat, right, in addition to letting people stop you from running around, so as not to offend the nobles, it is better than not imposing any harsh measures on you, if you really offend the nobles, it is really a dead end. Now that you are messing around so much, the emperor's anger is not something you can bear. ”
Xu Chengwei stood behind the guards, standing a little taller, but he could see the actions of most people, and under his words, there was still hesitation on the faces of many people. It is true that the emperor had food distributed in the slums, and did not expel them, so he let them go back to the slums.
But although the food distributed by the emperor is enough, it is miscellaneous grain every time, and this group of displaced people is not all ordinary farmers, among them there is a family that originally had a background, and it was originally a life of fine clothes and food, but this natural disaster came too quickly and too quickly, and the family could not react at all, so they could only pick up what they could take away and take it away. Originally, he brought this property with him, but he encountered fierce robbers on the way, and the important people in the family also spent a lot of money to escape. They originally thought that the capital was originally the imperial capital, and they would not treat the displaced people too harshly, and the relatives who were originally going to defect were also here, but after coming here for a few days, they found that Emperor Xie regarded them as inferior people at all. The food they eat is miscellaneous grains, which makes it unbearable for their group of people who were originally arrogant, coupled with the emperor's strict order not to let them near prosperous places, they have no chance to find their relatives at all, and they can't help but feel dissatisfied in their hearts. This time they took the lead.
"Hmph, Dog Officer, aren't you just threatening us? We were originally lonely and helpless, and we thought that the emperor would be merciful and Kyoto would be a warm place after all, but when we arrived, we found that you didn't treat us as human beings at all. Our people are dying of food, and we are not allowed to find a doctor. What is this? A thin man stood up, his face was messy, and he couldn't see his original appearance clearly, but his eyes were very bright, and he was very angry when he said something.
He is also one of the leaders of this turmoil, named Zhang Ting, originally just instigated, want to see the emperor's way of doing things, but this way to see the prosperity of the market, and then see the embarrassment of their group of people, in the thought of what they eat and drink every day, in the end the pimple in his heart is getting bigger and bigger, he is the eldest son of the family, he is handsome and chic, with real talent and learning, he used to be dissatisfied with some of the emperor's ways of doing things, although there is a trace of dissatisfaction, he also deeply agrees. Because his desire is to be able to find a wise king and take revenge on him, Nangong Tian was originally the goal he set, but now it seems that this Nangong Tian is not really the material of the Son of Heaven.
"This is not to threaten everyone, and in order to tell your family the outcome of this unrest, after all, I also believe that most people have been bewitched by some people." Xu Chengwei thought that the affairs of these homeless people should have been taken care of by him, if his master King Rong wanted to move these people, then he would definitely inform himself, and Nangong Tian would not be stupid enough to use the homeless people to do anything, after all, no matter what the homeless people say now, if they are circulated outside, they will only say that it is Nangong Tian's problem, no matter what mistakes the officials below make, as long as it is not a big crime like treason. If something goes wrong, people will complain that the emperor can't govern the country. Therefore, Nangong Tian is behind the manipulation, and this hand can also be ruled out. In addition to the pair of contradictions between King Rong and Nangong Tian, although there are many other small contradictions, there is no need to rely on people like homeless people to get things done. In this way, there are only people who hope that the entire country of Izumo Province is not good, and the most obvious such person is naturally the enemy country of Fierce Tiger.
Tobe Shirou is obviously not a stupid person who will only be attached to King Rong, and he can be regarded as a shrewd person who can survive in this power struggle until now. If the mastermind behind the scenes is really from the Fierce Tiger Country, then he has to be cautious, the domestic struggle is domestic in the end, and once foreign forces are involved, the meaning of many things will change.
"Everyone is already homeless now, I believe that at this time they all want a stable life, although they are in the position of the household servant, in the end it is no different from everyone, the emperor has already arranged future plans for everyone, but the emperor has been busy with official business recently, so everyone's plan has been postponed. I didn't expect such a thing to happen to everyone, it really chilled His Majesty. Xu Chengwei, the household servant, looked like he was a pity, a long sigh for the people, or Oscar also owed him a little gold.
"Hmph, don't say it anymore, Dog Official, but we heard that this emperor list has been awarded, and the food that was originally awarded to us should be some good food, and the quantity is enough. And the result! What do we eat as a result? The food we eat is not only the food that has been left out for a long time and is about to rot, but the quantity has been getting smaller and smaller recently, and now we can only rely on a bowl of porridge for a day. Otherwise, it's just a sweet potato to eat for a few days, is this a gift from the emperor? We are the emperor's people, kiss him and love him, and now, is this how he treats us? An old woman was leaning on her body, and a child was supporting her, both of them dressed in tatters, and the child did not speak, and her eyes were full of timidity and fear. The old woman's mouth also vented dissatisfaction. It's not that the homeless people are just a group of harmony, each small group is hierarchical, and the old man has no labor, and there are no relatives to rely on, so naturally he is not taken seriously, and what she said is not everyone's, but her own. But she didn't dare to say it in the small collective, and now this collective came to the palace gate to seek justice, and she also felt that this was the responsibility of the emperor, and she denounced it.
Although the old woman's words made many people feel the same way, but no one would be so big, although it was forced to go to the palace, but many people were afraid in their hearts, and everyone here looked at them with a cold face, a sharp knife in their hands, and a cold light in their eyes. Just wait for them to come up with a knife when they have a time to make an out-of-the-ordinary move.
Today is the Hundred Flowers Banquet, most of the people guarding outside the palace are the Black Cloud Guard in Nangong Tian's hands, Black Cloud Guard has always only listened to Nangong Tian's words, and the rest of the people can't enter the inside of this Black Cloud Guard, and they can't understand the strength of Black Cloud Guard at all, but King Rong tried to seize control of Black Cloud Guard several times but all ended in failure.
Today is Hei Yunwei, which is also another big reason why Xu Chengwei spoke for the emperor, Hei Yunwei is loyal to Nangong Tian, and he must definitely report this scene and what they said to Nangong Tian word for word.
However, Xu Chengwei's words obviously deceived many people, Zhang Ting also didn't believe it, he knew some inside stories of the court when he was at home, and it was said that this household servant was a person from King Rong's faction, and now he was indeed talking about defending the emperor, which had to make him hesitate.
But if they know that Xu Chengwei, the seemingly kind household servant in front of them, is the main culprit who withholds their food, I am afraid that even if there is an obstruction from the guards, Xu Chengwei is in danger.
"Old man, this emperor naturally can't take care of every citizen of Izumo Country in every way." I saw Jiang Xinyu walking out of the palace gate, still wearing the clothes from the banquet, and she was graceful and luxurious.
"Meet the Snow Princess!" Xu Chengwei was very surprised, he glanced at Jiang Xinyu, he thought that Jiang Xinyu was a female streamer, what was she doing here. And the rioters here are not good people, and people with a little brains won't come.
"Meet the Snow Princess!" Heiyunwei also thought like this, but he didn't show it, they were disciplined, they just saluted and then started to face the homeless people with weapons in their hands to prevent violence. Move. However, with a look from the leader of the black clouds, Heiyunwei sent a few people to stand around Jiang Xinyu to protect the dead corners around Jiang Xinyu, because Xiaorou also followed Jiang Xinyu out, so Heiyunwei also included Xiaorou in the protection circle.
Jiang Xinyu had a smile on her face, and secretly scolded Nangong Tian in her heart, but she let herself appease and appease these homeless people, and threatened herself with that promise, she didn't want her hard work to do such a scene to be in vain. But this appeasement is very difficult for her, she has cultivated her mystical power, if she is allowed to kill these people, she can still do some strength slightly. It's really not something she can do to appease this. Jiang Xinyu gritted her teeth secretly, showing no trace on the surface, but Xiao Rou, who was familiar with Jiang Xinyu, could still find the depression in her master's heart, so she had to pull the corners of her mouth helplessly. As a slave, she is not easy to manage the affairs between the masters.
"Xue Fei? This is the snow concubine who just entered the palace? ”
"Well, I heard that today's Hundred Flowers Banquet was hosted by her! It seems to be very much loved by the emperor. ”
"What is she doing at this time, does the emperor think that it is okay to let a woman come and carry out the policy of tenderness?"
"No! Let the emperor give us justice. It's useless to let a woman come. ”
"Fair and fair!" Many people shouted, as if their emotions were aroused.
Xu Chengwei looked at the homeless people and shook his head, he was already working hard, what is going on with Jiang Xinyu now.
