Chapter 1182 Harming others will ultimately harm yourself
It's a pity that everyone in Broken Gold Beach is not afraid at all.
"You can go wherever you want to complain! We are not from the court or the yamen! We just came to help because our uncle took the job. Now our uncle is so angry that he fell ill. , who still spoils you?"
“They are just a bunch of white-eyed wolves! They eat people’s food and don’t **** on them!”
“If I had known you were like this, even if we were feeding the pigs with our grains and vegetables, we wouldn’t have given them to you to eat!”
The mouths of the old and young men in Broken Gold Beach are not just for show, they are working in their hands and not even a word of curse is left behind.
Some refugees were still sensible and asked loudly, "What are you talking about? Who made uncle uncle so angry? We never talked to uncle at all!"
The village chief shouted to the villagers, those who got on the bus, and those who got on the bus, and the guards who escorted them. Then he turned his head and sneered in response.
“What you are talking about these days is that Princess Kangle, who is about to be sacrificed to pray for rain, is only a teenager! That is our uncle’s niece, the apple of our Li family’s eye, and the owner of Broken Gold Beach!”
With that, he waved his pipe, and the convoy set off for home.
The refugees didn't speak for a long time, looking at each other and feeling a little stupid.
“Aunt Zhang, what princess did you say yesterday that you wanted to burn the people praying for rain? Is this the master of these people?” a woman asked the temporary neighbor next to her.
The temporary neighbor was frightened and waved his hands quickly.
“No, no, I was just joking! And I also heard what Zhang Dassuan said. He said that if it rains earlier, he can go home earlier!”
"No, no, I heard what others said." The man named Zhang Dashuan also refused to admit it and also pushed it aside.
It has been pushed back and forth like this, everyone has said it, but everyone also listens to what others say.
It just doesn’t matter who the source is!
People have been offended, and no one cares about them!
Some refugees were smart and took a bowl to secretly fill the half-cooked porridge.
As a result, someone saw him and robbed him too.
The refugees who had just been arguing in a group immediately started grabbing like crazy again.
Only a small part of the porridge and soup went into the stomach, and most of it was lost in the fight.
Some people were hungry, and in a moment of confusion, they grabbed the bags of food...
The few clerks assigned by the household department used to just drink herbal tea in the shed and get their wages by watching others working.
Now that everyone in the Li family has evacuated, they are the only ones left. Before they know it, the refugees have turned into a mob again!
It is simply impossible to live!
They couldn't stop him, and they didn't dare to stop him for fear of losing their lives.
With no choice, they could only run back to report the news.
The doctor at the Ministry of Finance was drinking tea leisurely, and suddenly he heard the news from the little official who ran back, and he realized that a big event had been delayed.
He immediately found Li Laoer's request for leave and ran to find the minister, who then found the minister...
So, in the middle of the afternoon, the prince and several important ministers were discussing matters, and the news that Li Laoer had directly given up his son came in!
Before everyone could say anything, news of the city defense also came.
It turned out that the refugees who had grabbed the food ran away, and those who had not grabbed it were afraid of starving in the future, so they clamored to enter the city, and the city gate had been surrounded by water.
Those in the city cannot get out, and those outside the city cannot enter.
The commander of the city defense shift was afraid of something happening and did not dare to take responsibility, so he also reported it.
At this time, several important ministers frowned and were unhappy.
“Why did Mr. Li suddenly become ill and cause chaos outside the city?”
"Yes, even if you are sick, you won't have to withdraw all the people." The prince lowered his head to drink tea and said nothing. After thinking about it for a few times, he guessed the purpose of what the Li family did.
There was a flash of light in his eyes, but when he raised his head, he frowned.
After several important ministers finished speaking, the prince hesitated and said with a bit of helplessness, "Originally, those people were just villagers from Suijintan, but they were acting under Uncle Li's orders and were not arranged by the Yamen.
"Now that Uncle Li is sick, they all went back to take care of him, which is understandable. However, something happened suddenly and the refugees were left unattended for a while, which is why trouble broke out."
Hearing this, several important ministers looked at each other with mixed feelings.
The prince grew up in Suijintan, so he should accommodate Suijintan and maintain it a little more.
This shows that the prince values love and justice, and it will be a good thing for them to ascend the throne in the future.
But at this moment, it is helpless to put this emphasis on love and justice here.
Finally, several important ministers discussed it and sent a minister from the Ministry of Household Affairs to visit the patient.
Of course, the visit to the doctor is a lie, and letting Li Laoer and the Li family take over the refugees again is the real thing.
The Minister was a little reluctant at first, and usually looked down on Li Laoer's background. Now he deigned to condescend to "beg" Li Laoer. How could he be happy?
Then…
"What, Mr. Li is very ill and doesn't see visitors?" The waiter was sitting in the carriage, dizzy with heat. Hearing what the servant in the Earl's Mansion said, he was so angry that his head was smoking.
The servant at the Earl's Mansion smiled and responded, "Yes, sir, our uncle is indeed very ill. He can't even open his eyes. He really can't see guests."
The waiter wanted to curse, but after thinking about it, he swung the car window and turned around and went back...
The prince and several important ministers were spitting after hearing what the minister said, scolding the Li family as if they had committed some heinous crime.
Several important ministers all had headaches. Li Laoer was really pretending to be ill and completely gave up his job.
Even if they knew this was false, they couldn't pull him out of bed and force him to continue taking care of the refugees!
It was the prince who listened to the minister’s chatter and said something directly.
“Since Mr. Shilang said that taking care of the refugees is just a trivial matter, Uncle Li should not be so irresponsible. From now on, Mr. Shilang, please take over the refugees.”
The waiter was stunned at that time. His mouth could be opened wide enough to stuff an egg in. He was so regretful and confused.
How did such a hot potato fall on his head?
He wanted to say something else, but the prince added, "Don't worry, just as the Ministry of Household Affairs allocated money and grain before, it will do the same in the future. There won't be a grain of rice or a penny missing."
The eggs stuffed into the waiter's mouth immediately turned into gall.
He is the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu. Of course, he knows best how much food the Ministry of Hubu will allocate.
There is simply not enough food for the 10,000 or 20,000 refugees outside the city!
In the past few days, Li Laoer tried his best to "beg alms" from various houses in the city, and even the prince took advantage of them, so that he could barely feed the refugees.
Now it's his turn, what should he do...
Let’s not say that the unlucky minister harmed others but ultimately harmed himself. I just said that because Xindu Pier is outside Xindu City, there is no curfew restriction, so even if night falls, the wharf is still busy.
The hawker is working hard to sell the remaining fish and shrimp, hoping that a buyer will appear to mark his business today.
There are also enthusiastic waiters in the tavern, shouting and soliciting business, "We are new to Xinghua Village, don't miss it if the wine-loving gentleman passes by!"
Several urchins were wearing half-length trousers, shirtless, and were as tanned as loaches, running around on the street. Occasionally, passers-by were bumped into, and they couldn't help but laugh and curse.
The urchins didn’t take it seriously and continued to play.
One of them looked up at the distance of the pier and suddenly shouted, "Oh, what a big boat!"
Everyone heard the sound and went away. In the dark twilight, a large sea ship appeared in front of them little by little, like a giant beast that came out of ancient times, with a ferocious look!
