Chapter 19 Counts as Counts

Yang You saw Li Xing coming over and hurried to salute.

The reason for such anxiety turned out to be that the Liu family was dissatisfied with Li Xing's taking away 5,000 stone corn, and spread the news that Master Liu donated it to the county government and entrusted the county government to distribute it, so that the victims could come to the county government to collect it.

"My lord, the students guess that those victims must have mixed with the people of the Liu family, if those disaster victims are allowed to enter the city, they will provoke from them, and it will cause civil unrest, and the top priority is to close the city gate."

If Li Xing did not complete the system task, or did not reach a cooperation with the prince.

He would definitely choose the method that Yang You said.

After all, after the civil unrest, all that remains is to smash and loot.

Now he has a choice, and of course he chooses the better one.

That is, first stabilize the victims who are pouring in from all over the place, and then use the Wind and Rain Charm to complete the miracle of praying for rain, and brush up a wave of prestige, so that this group of disaster victims will not come in vain.

"It's better to be blocked, Yang You hurry up and arrange for people to set up a porridge pot outside the east gate."

"The dog went to inform the militia group and asked them to help defend the four gates, and guided all the victims to go to the east gate to distribute porridge, and if anyone used this to incite the people, they would be beheaded."

"I'll go to the chief catcher and collect grain from Changping to the east gate."

After Li Xing finished giving the order, the three of them went their separate ways.

In less than an hour, ten cauldrons had been set up outside the east gate, and porridge had been boiled inside.

The grain that is often closed is also continuously transported to the East Gate.

When Li Xing and Jiang Hong arrived at the east gate, they saw that a human head in Li Gou'er's hand was still on the ground.

He explained loudly to the victims: "Fellow villagers, Master Liu's donation of food is purely a rumor, and the food used now is all transferred from Changping in order for everyone to have a full meal, risking the risk of killing their heads. ”

"Please line up carefully, don't crowd, everyone will have porridge to drink."

The Liu family, who was originally mixed in the crowd and wanted to cause chaos, saw that several of their companions were pulled out and their heads were cut off, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to provoke anymore.

Those victims were honest people.

Where have I ever seen a person who cut off his head if he disagrees.

So after Li Gou'er cut a few people, they were also frightened and lined up honestly.

Seeing that the scene was stable, Li Gou'er breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning his head to look at Li Xing, he hurriedly trotted over, and saluted: "Young master, in addition to the Liu family, there are also those officials who were sent away, I only caught seven, all of them were beheaded, and there are other people mixed in the crowd, do you want to catch them?" ”

"As long as they don't take the lead, they will ignore it for the time being, and wait for the victims to disperse, and then they will arrest people."

What Li Xing wanted at this time was stability, so he decided to endure it first.

This time he boiled porridge, not only did he not fall down with chopsticks, but Li Xing also asked people to put salt in it.

After drinking the porridge, these wilted people, not to mention that they were alive immediately, but their spirits also looked much better.

Some of them even sat together and chatted.

Anyway, if you can eat enough here, then wait for the evening!

Those who received orders to incite the victims of the disaster were a little panicked when they saw this scene.

If you can't complete the task, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain to the master when I go back.

Several people got together to discuss whether to use the second plan.

Finally, with the approval of the small leader, they once again disappeared into the crowd.

I saw one person, and suddenly got up and said to Li Xing, who was giving porridge to the people: "Lord County Order, I heard that His Majesty the Emperor gave him a sacred object to pray for rain, I don't know if it's true or not?" ”

Li Xing was thinking about how to guide these people to pray for rain.

Unexpectedly, someone gave him a head.

He couldn't help but look at Yang You, who was helping him with the soup kitchen: "This is the person you arranged?" ”

Yang You shook his head, but Li Gou'er glanced at the person and whispered, "Young Master, that person is the former official of the Zhuang class, who is responsible for guarding the cell. ”

"I thought that in this world, there are only good intentions to do bad things, but I didn't expect that when there were really bad intentions and good deeds, the official was thinking about how to explain to the people about praying for rain, and they helped to start."

Li Xing said a word to the two, and then handed the spoon of the soup soup to the dog: "You come to give soup, and I will talk to you about praying for rain." ”

"Yes, young master."

Li Gou'er took the spoon.

Li Xing walked to the table responsible for recording the grain, stood on it, and looked at the questioner: "This brother is well-informed, that's right, Your Majesty did give you something to pray for rain." ”

"When will the Lord pray for rain and save the people from calamity?"

The man didn't speak this time, and in the other direction of the crowd, a young man dressed as a scholar got up and saluted Li Xing and asked.

"The official originally planned to pray for rain today, but so many victims came to the county to survive, how could the official bear to let them sleep on the streets, and he wanted to settle them all down, and then talk about praying for rain."

After Li Xing finished speaking, those who secretly instigated looked up at the sky, only to see the sun shining, not even a trace of clouds, and they couldn't help but be happy.

This is clearly the excuse of the dog official when he sees the weather.

This time, as long as the victims are used to force the dog officials to pray for rain, as long as the rain does not come, they can say that the dog officials have no way and anger the heavens, so the sacred objects given by His Majesty are invalid.

When the time comes, it is not impossible to incite chaos among the people and take the opportunity to end up as a dog official.

"My lord's words, Xiaosheng dare not agree, the reason why the disaster is everywhere is all because of the wrath of God, caused by drought, since Your Majesty has given the gods, I think you folks are the same as me, I would rather be hungry now, but also hope that the adults will pray for rain as soon as possible to alleviate the disaster."

After the scholar finished speaking, Li Xing glared at him fiercely and kept this person in his heart.

Only then did he say to the people: "Folks, do you really think so?" ”

"Yes! My lord, if you can really pray for the rain, I am willing to be hungry today. ”

Those who were arranged spoke one after another.

Whether in ancient times or in modern times, many people have an extremely serious herd mentality.

Someone takes the lead, and they will go along with it.

Even if there are a few people with different opinions, when they see that everyone agrees, they will choose to go along for fear that people will say that they are not social.

"Okay, since all the villagers think so, this official will comply with the will of the people and go to the City God Temple to pray for rain."

After speaking, he didn't forget to say loudly to Jiang Hong, who was giving porridge in the distance: "Mr. Jiang catches his head, this official is going to the City God Temple to pray for rain today, and you send someone to pull two carts of dry firewood to the City God Temple." ”

"Master Li, what do you mean by this?"

Jiang Hong was a little puzzled, and said in his heart, you pray for rain and pray for rain, and the people who toss me pull dry firewood, which is purely full of food.

Ouyang Xiong, the second master, who is now the head of the team, was shocked, he thought of some old monks who begged for rain and finally sacrificed themselves to the Dragon King.

This Li Xing won't also play this set!

So he whispered in Jiang Hong's ear: "Big boss, the county magistrate may want to follow the example of the monk and ask for rain with his body, you must stop it, and you can't let him mess around." ”

"Isn't it! He's so afraid of death, I don't believe it. ”

Jiang Hong seemed to have seen through Li Xing, and said very firmly.
