Chapter Seventy-Two: Besieged

Back at home, the old uncle, Jing Cheng and the others gathered again, and Bao Zhong told them that Li Yansi, Zehui and Qiang Xiong planned to go to Abbot Zhao of the White Horse Courtyard tomorrow, urging Abbot Zhao to send down this month's relief food.

"Then, are we still going to work for the Han people?" Jing Cheng asked.

Bao Zhong said: "Can you talk about it, it's all bad things, if Abbot Zhao doesn't agree, will Zu Ru and them use other means to cause a big thing?

Xi Zhong said: "There are no collectors and ugly people here, and they originally planned to work with us, so I'm afraid they will hesitate again." ”

"It's their business that they can afford to go hungry, it has nothing to do with us, they decide for themselves, in short, we can fill our stomachs ourselves, and then bring food back for our families to eat, and that's enough." ”

The next day, the Renjia family not only dispatched more than 60 men, but also brought more than 20 healthy women by the way, and the Taoist priest who supervised the construction of the house had no choice but to fly to the White Horse Courtyard again, bringing back the order of the abbot Zhao, agreeing that these women of the Renjia family would work together, and their task was to pick up hay and dry firewood, make a fire to cook, and do some light physical labor by the way.

At the end of the day's work, each family brought back two more dough, and the food problem of the Ren family was initially alleviated.

Bao Zhong asked people to inquire, and the news came back that Li Yansi's plan to ask the White Horse Courtyard to distribute relief food had failed, or rather, it was delayed, because they had not seen Abbot Zhao, and Abbot Zhao had gone out.

On December 12, more than 30 people who did not have a collector and more than 20 people from the Broken Ugly family followed the Renjia family and entered the construction site together.

Bao Zhong has been paying attention to the various processes of building turnover houses in the past two days, and he didn't catch up with the days when he laid the foundation and leveled the land in the early stage, so he kept his mind at the moment and wanted to see how the Han people built these turnover houses.

He found that building a house is roughly divided into excavation, crushing soil, laying soil, drying, beaming, closing, etc., and what he is doing these days is the most basic excavation and the simplest process, so he paid attention to the second process of crushing soil.

After doing it for a while, it happened that there was an older Han man over there who was going to go to Gong, so Bao Zhong took the initiative to come over, picked up the stone hammer, and began to break the soil. The Taoist priest who supervised the work didn't say anything, but let him get involved, and more than a dozen people gathered around, wielding stone hammers, smashing hard soil, clods of earth, and even stones, and then piling them aside.

After a short time, the Han people who came out of Gong came back, and when they saw Bao Zhong taking his own stone hammer, they didn't accuse him, but went to the Taoist priest to get another stone hammer and smashed it next to Bao Zhong. While smashing, he also pointed out his waist and abdomen to exert his strength, how to pick the stone hammer is more labor-saving.

After smashing the broken soil, he instructed Bao Zhong to sift the soil with a dustpan to pick out the grass roots, leaves, and stems in the clods, and leave the broken stones as much as possible.

When Baozhong led people to work, Li Yansi and others continued to ask to see Abbot Zhao, and were told that the abbot was not in Baima Courtyard for two consecutive days, Li Yansi understood that this was Abbot Zhao deliberately avoiding the party.

So, Li Yansi repeated his old tricks and organized hundreds of people from the Tuoba clan, the Mi Bao clan, and the Pochao clan to sit quietly in the White Horse Courtyard, blocking the front and back doors of the White Horse Courtyard tightly.

It was blocked for most of the day, and there was no movement in the White Horse Courtyard, which only sent a Ming army sentry post, and the party members who were not allowed to sit quietly and block the door were allowed to approach. So Zehui and Qiangxiong came to Li Yansi to discuss.

"Zu Ru, this surname Zhao is afraid that he is a ruthless character, everyone has been blocked for so long, and they have all passed the meal, and I don't see him send some bread out, and there is no hot water. ”

"That's right, if it was the former abbot Zeng, he would have sent out the food a long time ago, I remember last winter blocking the White Horse Courtyard, and the people who went were mixed with a cotton suit, and it was good for the past two days, and there was nothing. In this cold day, everyone can't stand it, Zu Ru, what do you say?"

Li Yansi pondered for a moment and said fiercely: "Transfer some more people to block the street for me!"

In the afternoon of the same day, more than 200 party members came, blocking the front and back streets of the White Horse Courtyard tightly, but they still couldn't see Abbot Zhao. The Taoist priests of the White Horse Courtyard entered and exited the gate, and they all stood on tiptoe and walked through the crowd, but none of the party members had the courage to stop them, or Li Yansi and they were not ready to make a big fuss.

But after two days, the party members who went to besiege the White Horse Courtyard suffered a lot, and their dissatisfaction began to accumulate, and they shouted one after another to "ask for war" from several leaders.

When the former abbot was there, the party members also organized several sieges of the White Horse Courtyard, and each time they besieged, the abbot sent people out to deliver food and water, and when it was cold, he also served hot water, and at the same time he could always agree, at least partially agree to the requirements of the party members.

Of course, Li Yansi and the others did not care about themselves, and every time they made demands, they did not go too far, and step by step, they confirmed the ownership of the cultivated land and a small amount of pasture by the party members, and received regular monthly relief and temporary exemption from military service.

It's a pity that Abbot Zeng, who loves the people and cares for the people, has been transferred, and there is an abbot Zhao, who has not let out a single fart for a month, and the first fart he has to stop the relief of the party members! And everyone sat around in the White Horse Courtyard for a day, but there was no food or water to drink! This abbot Zhao was really a demon and a dog official!

In that case, don't blame me for being rude, I have to make some trouble for you, so that you can get out of here early!

"Zehui, Qiangxiong, you each choose some bold people from the people, it is best to have no small family, I will also choose some from below, tomorrow the surname Zhao will not see anyone again, so I will go to the shops and restaurants on the street to smash me, some Han people's homes, you can also break in, what you should take, what you get are your own. ”

Zehui hesitated: "Zu Ru, the Ming army has just entered the city, let's make such a fuss, will we let the sons and daughters suffer?"

"Once it really makes a fuss and sends troops to suppress it, this matter will be considered a big trouble. In the past two years, I have seen clearly that the Taoist priests and officials of the Ming Dynasty are afraid of things, and they do not seek merit, but only no fault. You just need to remember not to cause trouble, even if the sons and daughters are caught and imprisoned, we can find a way to get out. And as long as it gets to this point, I'm afraid that the surname Zhao will have to get out. ”

"Yes, Zu Ru, don't worry, you must let this dog official take a good look at the ability of our party members!"

"Yes, let him get out of here!"

When the incident of the party members besieging the White Horse Courtyard occurred in Hongyuan City, Zhao Ran was indeed not in the courtyard, he was not even in Hongyuan, he was in Songzhou, in the official room of the Du Prison of Tianhe Palace at the moment.
