C711

At this time, it was noon, and the city gate of Taiyang City, which was about to open at the third quarter of Yinshi, was still closed. From a long distance, Li Chengfeng and his colleagues could see a group of soldiers lining up on the tower, drawing their bows and arrows, pointing to the lower part of the tower, as if there were a large army pressing close to the city.

But what they saw was not a heavily armed army, but a group of ragged, down and out victims.

They gathered around the gates of the city in darkness, and they cried out in great sorrow.

"Let us in!"

"Let us in now!"

"I'm here to join in. Let me in!"

"I'm not a bad man. Why don't you let me in?"

"We have a guide and a pass token. Why don't we even let us in?"

On the tower, a man in a brocade robe, an official hat, a big waist and a fat head was lying on the tower, his head was poked, his face was panic and fear, and he kept mumbling to himself: "what can I do, what can I do?"

Standing next to him was a man of medium stature, about forty years old. He murmured, "my Lord, this arrow can't be released. If you let it go down and cause death and injury, it will cause criticism. I'm afraid it will be a bad ending!"

Next to him, another cloth clothes master was thin and small, with a wisp of moustache on his lips. He gave a shrill smile and retorted sarcastically: "there are tens of thousands of people here. If you don't drive them away, what will they do if they attack the gate? The impact of the city gate came in and became refugees, smashing and looting everywhere, so what to do? Is that what you can afford? "

Just as the middle-aged man was about to retort angrily, he suddenly heard someone shouting from under the tower: "Hello, my Lord, open the door, we are here to join the family!"

There was a lot of excitement below, and they were shouting for peace. Many people in the city also heard the news and rushed to the direction of the gate.

The prefect looked back, but he saw that there were black heads all over the street behind him, and they were constantly pouring in, blocking them up on the city tower and could not advance or retreat.

"What's the situation? What should I do? "

The middle-aged master gritted his teeth and said, "my Lord, it's better to take some of them and let them go to Wancheng with the rest."

The sly looking master sneered: "joke! Take some? How much do you take in? Ten thousand? 20000? What part do you take in? The most important thing is, even if you only accept 10000, hey, their rations, you come out? "

With that, he approached the prefect, lowered his voice, and whispered, "my Lord, don't forget, inside the granary But it's empty

The governor's face suddenly changed!

Although the war in the southeast was thousands of miles away from them, its influence was all over Daqi!

In order to win the battle, longtenghai not only drained all the blood of southeast counties, but also began to allocate resources from other counties and states.

After all, tens of millions of troops and people are piled up on the battlefield. It is a terrible expense for people to eat horses every day. The grain and grass saved in Daqi for many years are transported to the southeast crazily.

But this is still not enough for the troops of longtenghai to eat!

In order to collect grain and forage, long tenghai began to buy grain and grass at a high price under the proposal of military adviser Gao Shenghan, so as to stimulate the large grain collectors. At the same time, long tenghai wrote to the crown prince of Jianguo to report the situation of the war and pointed out that "the victory or defeat of this battle is in January"!

This sentence touched the crown prince, he began to severely blame local officials for collecting grain and grass and severely cracked down on hoarding merchants.

At the same time, long tenghai announced a high price of grain and grass in the southeast. In this way, while fighting hard, the rich people who were hoarding and hoarding were moved. They rushed to sell grain and grass to Southeast China, and they made a lot of money.

Even some prefects did not resist, quietly opened the official grain reserves, began to sell grain and grass, from which to enrich their own pockets.

In their opinion, it's enough to add in the grain collected the next year. In any case, in ten or eight years, no one will be able to check the grain. Moreover, as long as there is no natural disaster, no one will notice.

Therefore, this kind of granary is often vacant and misappropriated everywhere, which is the hidden rule of the whole Daqi officialdom, without exception.

But like the governor in front of him, he sold the granary clean It's unique!

But what the old guard didn't think of was

There's really a natural and man-made disaster!

And it's so big!

Indeed, if these victims are put in and there are so many mouths to feed, what should we do? The official food is empty! Who will produce the food?

Those big families? Their grain has been sold to the southeast in a hurry!

In other words, if there is no food supply in Taiyang within a month, even Taiyang people may starve to death! Not to mention feeding these people!

After reading this, the governor's face was like dirt, his head was sweating and he was shaking all over!

The cheeky old master's voice was not very loud. It happened to be heard by the middle-aged master next to him. The middle-aged master snorted angrily and said, "I said at the beginning that the official grain can't be moved. Even if you want to move, you can't sell all of them! Now, how to make up for such a big mistake! What's more, when the flood spreads to Taiyang, what should we do? "Those who don't have enough money to say: "those who don't have enough money to stand on their back?"

The middle-aged master was furious when he heard the speech, but his face was awe inspiring. He bowed his head and dared not speak.

In Taiyang, who didn't know that Li Tian and Li Daren didn't know a big character in front of him. This official was bought with money?

He donated money to the government for five years. After three years, he managed to make up for the shortage. He came up to scrape the land three feet to get the money back. However, it didn't come to him that Taiyang was so poor that he could barely afford to feed the adults who helped him cover up.

Li Da's heart is bitter, full of grievances, no place to say!

It has become a common practice to sell officials and barons in the Qi Dynasty. It is also common to buy officials and sell officials. Which one didn't first bleed three liters of blood and then dig three feet of land. In the last three years, the magistrate of the Qing Dynasty had 100000 snowflakes of silver?

Why are other people earning so much money that it's their turn to be forced like this?

There's no reason for that!

Is it the right way to turn in filial piety silver?

Mr. Li is in great pain!

But what makes him more painful is the mess in front of him!

Just as he scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks and wiped his cold sweat in the winter, there was a sudden noise from below. Some people yelled excitedly: "let us in! There's our home in here, why don't you let us in! "

Yuanjin and Taiyang are quite close. There are indeed many people on both sides who settle down on both sides, and there are also many relatives walking around each other. At this time, there is a clamor inside and outside. It is really a roar of people, like boiling water!

The governor was so anxious that his forehead was sweating and his nose was dripping with oil. He stamped his feet and said, "what should I do? What should I do?"

The master, who had a wicked look, even said, "your Lord, give orders quickly. Once the gate of the city is broken open! Your official hat But I can't keep it! "

The last sentence, the final word!

Mr. Li was shocked in his heart!

What, can't you keep your hat?

That's enough!

I haven't got my money back!!

I spent money, you don't let me earn a little, even if you don't let me go back. Is there any reason? Is there any royal law!!

Reading this, Mr. Li got angry from his heart. He clenched his fist and yelled with all his strength: "shoot the arrow! Shoot the arrow! Get rid of these crooks

The officer on the tower was shocked, but he didn't dare to disobey the order, so he had to brave his head and say, "shoot the arrow!"

The soldiers on the gate were all frightened, but the military orders were like a mountain, and they had to shoot arrows one after another!

For a time, the arrow on the gate of the city fell like a piece of wheat!

Li Chengfeng, Zhao Feiyue and crown prince Zhao Hanqing saw this, all of them were furious and cried out: "stop it!"
