Volume 1 Burning Chapter 97 A large number of refugees
"Sir, why are you standing outside the door and not going in?"
A startled female voice sounded, Kong Qingxin and Li Qinman stood in front of the door of the "Xinxin Courtyard" and exclaimed, Kong Qingxin was stunned for a moment after seeing Qin Jingshan's actions, and then reacted, and hurriedly called away the servants who followed behind, leaving only himself and Li Qinman.
The courtyard where Qin Tianxin lives was nominated by Qin Jingshan, and the courtyard was named after Qin Tianxin's breast name.
Maybe it was because of the performance of "being a thief", Qin Jingshan was startled by an exclamation behind him, and his hand holding on to the window shook unconsciously, and after the window made a sound, it was opened, and several people who were talking happily in the room looked sideways, only to see a figure flashing in front of the window.
Someone dared to peep at Miss in the palace!
Xiao Ru rushed out indignantly for the first time.
Pushing open the door, he scolded loudly: "Who! Eat the bear's heart~~", before completing this feat, the tone of his voice changed sharply: "Hello Wangye!
"Humph!"
Qin Jingshan turned his embarrassment into severity, as if Xiao Ru was a voyeur, and after snorting at Xiao Ru, he beckoned Kong Qingxin and Li Qinman to come over.
Qin Tianxin heard Xiaoru's voice asking for peace in the house, and knew that his father was coming, so he pulled Qingyang Lanruo out to greet him.
"Let's all come into the house and talk!" Qin Jingshan waved his hand and took the lead in the room.
Near noon, Qin Jingshan and the two ladies walked out of the "Xinxin Courtyard", while Qin Tianxin, Xiaoru and Qingyang Lanruo accompanied them all the way, Qin Tianxin's face was rippling with gratitude, because his father had already withdrawn the emperor's marriage, although he did not accept Li Xiangfeng, but for himself, this was also a great joy.
After sending off her father and aunt, Qin Tianxin excitedly picked up Qingyang Lanruo's little face and kissed her on the forehead: "Little girl, you are really a mascot, you will bring good things to your sister as soon as you come, Xiaoru, get ready, let's go out and take Lanruo's sister to play!"
Xiao Ru saw that Qin Tianxin was so happy, and she also seemed very happy, after answering, she happily ran to the room to prepare, these days, Miss has never been out of the palace, she has been sulking in the courtyard, today I finally saw Miss Miss's happy face, and I am also very happy, as long as Miss is happy, everything is fine.
Three months passed quickly, and on July 17, 292 in the continental calendar, the most comical and ridiculous miracle that was recorded in the history of the Wanqin Empire occurred.
Since Qin Jingshan pushed off the royal marriage, he has been ready to deal with the problems caused by the royal marriage these days, but he has not seen the news come for a long time, and the news from the subordinates of Zhongjing City said that the king of England was very angry about this matter, and he had entered the palace several times to face the saint, but they all came out in ashes, and there was no news unfavorable to the prince in the palace, which made Qin Jingshan a little puzzled.
The people who went out to spy on those boys also passed the news one after another, these boys were busy recruiting members, and the interesting thing is that a G-level mercenary group actually set up a big banner outside the mercenary guild to recruit 100 members, but the process was very unsmooth, and some skilled people would not go to such a low-level mercenary group, not to mention that the head of the group was still a hairy boy who was less than 20, and there were people who came here to apply, but basically met the following points.
First, the age of the grandfathers, skinny as wood, looking forward to seeing the door and eating together.
Second, he is a young underage, wearing open pants and saying that he wants to fight tigers, just give a piece of candy.
3. The age is neither too old nor too young, but the body lacks some parts, but it does not affect being a mercenary, such as arms, legs or something, of course, to ensure that the head is definitely not missing.
Qin Jingshan, who heard the news, couldn't help laughing, these guys can really play, and instructed his subordinates, as long as there is nothing that endangers the safety of others, let them toss, but also secretly protect the safety of those kids, after all, there is also Yu Yuanzheng's son among them.
Since Yu Yan came to the palace for the first time, Qin Jingshan sent someone to get in touch with Duke Yu, and Duke Yu was also helpless about his son, and asked Qin Jingshan to take care of his son's safety.
However, there are still some people who monitor the news and report to Qin Jingshan, Qin Tianxin took Xiaoru and Qingyang Lanruo to secretly find Li Xiangfeng and others in the name of shopping, but for the sake of his daughter's happy face every day, Qin Jingshan also instructed his subordinates, as long as there is nothing out of the ordinary, don't easily startle the snake, just spy secretly.
After receiving the order, the subordinate in charge of monitoring hurriedly retreated and disappeared into the palace in a puff of smoke.
At this time, the butler walked in in a hurry.
"Lord, it's not good! something's wrong!" the butler said with an anxious face.
Qin Jingshan still said with an unfazed face: "Steward Wei Chi, what is so anxious, is there any news from Zhongjing City?" Without the trouble of his baby daughter, Qin Jingshan is very comfortable now, doesn't he just not agree to marry his daughter, I don't think Zhongjing City will do anything to the palace.
The housekeeper hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's not a thing!" A large number of refugees have poured outside Nanyang City, wanting to enter the city, and now the garrison and the Taishou have passed, and they are urgently prepared. ”
Qin Jingshan looked puzzled and felt strange, where did these refugees come from? Why did they suddenly appear?
"Refugees from there?" Qin Jingshan asked.
"I heard that those refugees said that they came from the northeast, they said that from last year to this year, the rain did not fall, the drought continued year after year, and this year there was a locust plague, and they really couldn't go on, so they went south and began to beg for food, but the government did not let them go, they were caught all the way, and they were driven back a hundred miles away from Zhongjing City, and these people took advantage of the chaos to the east and began to flee, but there were officers and soldiers, and they were chased all the way to Shuichang City, and they begged all the way along the east. The housekeeper told him what he knew and reported it to Qin Jingshan.
"Hmph! What nonsense!" Qin Jingshan was angry, and said to the housekeeper: "That Shuichang City is almost three thousand kilometers away from Nanyang City, not to mention whether you can go there, there are so many imperial cities and towns along the way, are these people willing to go to the southern city of the empire, Nanyang City?" Qin Jingshan couldn't help but be full of atmosphere about this matter.
Then he said, "How many of these refugees are there, and who are they?"
The housekeeper replied with a sad face: "Lord, my subordinates have not gone to check, and I will return to the prince after my subordinates have a careful inspection!"
Qin Jingshan stood up at this time, "Someone is coming!" After finishing speaking, he said to the housekeeper: "Let's go! This king will also go and check to see what the situation is, whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster!" When he said the last two words, the housekeeper could obviously feel the fierce momentum of the king of Zhennan.
A neat team of horses came out from the side gate of Zhennan Wangfu, followed by a carriage, Qin Jingshan sat in it, and went straight to the direction of the south city gate.
In less than two quarters of an hour, they had arrived at the south gate, where the guards were on standby, the gate was tightly closed, the bolt was already up, and it was guarded by a group of soldiers.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" the cavalry in the lead shouted, and the soldiers in front hurriedly made a way.
The horse team of Zhennan Wangfu came to the gate of the city and was stopped by the captain of the soldiers guarding the gate.
"No one is allowed to leave the city without the orders of the Lord Taishou and the Lord of the Garrison!" The captain of the soldiers shouted sternly.
Syllable!
The captain of the soldiers whipped his horse with hatred on his face, and the cavalry said hatefully: "Get out!"
When!
The soldiers defending the city drew their long knives and pointed at this group of cavalry, and when the captain gave an order, they cut down the cavalry in front of them.
Boring!
The cavalry drew his saber and glared at the gatekeeper in front of him.
The saber rattling, as if it was about to ignite at the touch of a button, the two sides of the centaur held each other like this.
Qin Jingshan got out of the carriage and walked to the city gate.
"What's the matter? When this king goes out of the city, do you still need to report to Lord Taishou and Lord Garrison?"
The captain of the soldiers knelt down on one knee and saluted: "My subordinates don't dare! Many chaotic people outside the city gathered to make trouble, I hope the prince will be careful." After speaking, he got up and shouted at the soldiers behind him: "Open the city gate, be on guard!"
Qin Jingshan asked the captain of the soldiers standing next to him, "What about the South Gate Guard and the Taishou?"
When the captain of the soldiers saw that the prince asked him, he immediately replied: "Lord Wang, the Lord Garrison and the Lord Taishou have both returned to the house, and told their subordinates that they are not allowed to let people in, and sent people away, but the chaotic people refused to leave, and kept saying that it was the king, the king," the captain looked at Qin Jingshan with a flash in his eyes, and then said resignedly: "It was said that the prince asked them to come." ”
Qin Jingshan suddenly felt ridiculous, he was still connected with those refugees, could this be the trick of the British king? His face suddenly became gloomy, and he ordered to the captain of the soldiers: "Go and call the Taishou and the garrison, and say that this king has an invitation!"
When the captain of the soldiers saw the gloomy face of King Zhennan, he couldn't help but be afraid, and after receiving the order of King Zhennan, he flew and galloped away.
At this time, the guard of the south gate hurried down from the city gate and ran over with a group of soldiers.
"The prince atons for his sins! The subordinates don't know that the prince is coming, please atone for the sins!" The guard knelt on one knee and clasped his fists with both hands to ask for his sins.
"It's okay!!
The guard stood up, waved his hand to the soldiers, and ran to the city gate, when the soldiers who had opened the gate had opened it, and the crowd of people dressed in tatters, smelly, and dirty, poured in at once.
"Get these people out! Build a defense at the city gate!" With the shout of the guard, the soldiers shouted trumpets and rushed to the crowd that ran in, and the undisciplined refugees were slowly pushed out of the city gate by the neat soldiers, and the bow defense composed of more than 300 soldiers tightly surrounded a clearing outside the city gate, resisting the refugees surging outside the circle.
Qin Jingshan walked outside the city gate under the protection of the palace guards, it can be said that the crowd outside has no age, gender, and appearance, all of them are dirty, they can't see clearly, their numb eyes don't know what they are thinking, they just shout mechanically: "Let me in, I want to eat, I want to eat, etc."
The caravan also parked his goods and carriages on the side of the road, guarded by hired mercenaries, vigilantly staring at the refugees, swords lying in front of them to prevent them from looting.
