Chapter 18 Petition
In front of the spacious and majestic Peking Palace, the bluestone-paved square has already been occupied by thousands of people.Not only the 200 people brought by Zhang Yanwei, but after the commotion, many soldiers from the Wujie and Xingjie armies inside and outside Jinyang City also rushed to join them under the leadership of the officers.

Afterwards, one after another, some grass-roots officials from the Hedong Government Office also led many senior citizens, prominent families, business travelers, and workers to come to the meeting.Even some monks and Taoist priests followed suit, but all kinds of identities were gathered together.

Inside and outside the gate of the palace, the soldiers of the guardsmen were already on guard, with vigilant expressions, ready to suppress the "turmoil" at any time, but they did not appear overly nervous.Obviously, these people in front of the palace are organized and premeditated gatherings, and they are all well restrained.

In fact, for nearly half a month, Jinyang City has been strictly controlled. Thousands of people can gather in front of the palace gate, but the patrolling troops in the city have done nothing, which is surprising in itself.

In the atrium compound, the senior civil and military clubs from Hedong came to hear the news. Everyone received some news more or less, and when they exchanged glances, they all had a little tacit understanding.

When Liu Chengyou came leisurely, Liu Zhiyuan was standing on the stone steps and fiercely reprimanded his younger brother Liu Xin: "What's the matter with you? Huh? I'll let you inspect Jinyang, the serious city, how come so many people gather together? Going to the palace, making noise? Gu needs an explanation!"

In the face of Liu Zhiyuan's severe reprimand, Liu Xin was not afraid at all this time, stiff-necked, silent, and behaved like a hob.Seeing this, Liu Zhiyuan became even more angry, and swept towards Liu Chong, Shi Hongzhao, and Chang Si, the high-ranking generals of the Hedong Army: "So many soldiers have gathered, could it be that you just let things go?"

He glared at Yang Ping and Wang Zhang again: "Those who are in charge of officials and people, what's going on?"

Similar to Liu Xin's reaction, these people also calmly accepted Liu Zhiyuan's rebuke, but did not retaliate.

"I'm waiting to see the King of Peiping!"

Outside the gate of the mansion, there was another burst of shouting. In the noise, Zhang Yanwei's loud voice seemed unusually high, and it was clearly transmitted to the ears of the people inside the wall.Among those people outside, Zhang Yanwei had the highest rank.

Liu Chengyou walked forward slowly, and was immediately caught by Liu Zhiyuan and scolded: "You were in Longqi Army to rectify military discipline. Is this the result? You can't even control your subordinates?"

Facing Liu Zhiyuan's angry eyes, Liu Chengyou reacted as calmly as his face showed, cupping his hands and saying, "Officials, soldiers and people outside the government will not gather for no reason, and they will certainly have expectations. My father always loves the army and protects the people, why not Go out and hear what they have to say?"

When the words fell, Yang Ping immediately stood up and calmly echoed: "Pu She's words are very reasonable. The crowd outside the palace is so turbulent that it cannot be calmed unless it is the king. The king, you might as well listen to the audience, what do you have to say."

There was clearly a wily smile on Yang Pi's face, but Liu Zhiyuan ignored it, snorted coldly, and flung his sleeves towards the door: "I want to see if they make such a big move, what do they think? What are you doing!"

Accompanied by the "squeak" sound of the door shaft turning, the mansion door opened wide, and surrounded by all the officials, Liu Zhiyuan walked out first.

Seeing Liu Zhiyuan, Zhang Yanwei was in high spirits, and he led the people to bow down and called out to the king.Someone took the lead, and the participants followed suit and knelt down in unison.

Staring coldly at Zhang Yanwei in front of him, Liu Zhiyuan asked, "Zhang Yanwei, what do you want to do! Ignoring military regulations and inciting so many soldiers to come to pick quarrels and stir up trouble, Danggu dare not kill you? You don't know the laws of the country are strict, and you dare to gather a crowd to make trouble?"

Liu Zhiyuan asked, and the scene gradually quieted down.

Facing Liu Zhiyuan's anger, Zhang Yanwei didn't have stage fright this time. He straightened up, looked at Liu Zhiyuan, and said excitedly: "The last will not dare! I'm here to ask for the life of the people of Hedong, and for the people of the world!"

Zhang Yanwei said this so loudly, Liu Zhiyuan seemed to be amused, and sneered: "I want to hear it alone, where did you come from such mad words!"

Hearing the words, it seemed that they had been rehearsed, and Zhang Yanwei then said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the Hu robbers have invaded the Central Plains, and China has fallen. He was killed. Your Majesty was a Fangbo of Kyushu, with a mighty and virtuous person, and his meritorious deeds were unparalleled in the world. Please, Your Majesty, serve the world for the sake of the people, for the sake of the country and the society, that is, the throne of the emperor, the commander-in-chief to take prisoners, clear the world, and give the people of Fu the hope of the people!"

When Zhang Yanwei finished his words, the petitioning military and civilians immediately echoed, and the shouts broke out in front of the mansion again. One by one, they couldn't help themselves, but the pictures were chaotic and orderly.Some people simply shouted "Your Majesty", "Emperor" and "Official Family".
Liu Zhiyuan's attitude finally softened. He raised his hands and suppressed the persuasion of the crowd. After pondering for a while, he said emotionally: "I am extremely grateful for everyone's thoughts. It's too short, I really don't dare to assume the position of the emperor. Don't mention this again!"

It was the same old refusal, but this time, Liu Zhiyuan didn't walk away.As soon as he finished speaking, a civil servant stepped forward on his knees, kowtowed and said, "We all respect the monarch with sincerity and support with all our hearts. Please don't be humble, and the army and the people of the world will put your heart on it!"

"No! I'm ashamed to receive the favor of the country, but I didn't have time to report it. How can I do such an arrogant move?" Liu Zhiyuan still shook his head.

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Yanwei immediately spoke again, kowtowed a few times, but he did not care about the blood coming out of his forehead, and said to Liu Zhiyuan hoarsely: "Jin Zuo is dead, and a new dynasty should flourish! Your Majesty Jianzuo, it's not for the sake of a single family. Honor and disgrace, but for the well-being of the people in the world. At the end of the day, we will cry with blood, and as long as the king fulfills the supreme honor, even if the king has committed the crime of governing his subjects and rebelling the army, although he has no regrets, I just hope that the king will not retreat!"

Zhang Yanwei and others, for a while for the country and for the sake of the world, for a while for the people of the world, as if they really can represent the will of the people in the world.However, the atmosphere was extremely hot.

The men and women behind Liu Zhiyuan watched this huge petition with emotion, and many people looked at Liu Zhiyuan's tall back eagerly.

Su Fengji stood beside Yang Ping, his eyes showed the wisdom to see through everything, and on a whim, he whispered to Yang Ping: "Zhang Yanwei is only a rough and vulgar warrior, from his mouth, he can actually hear such a generous statement, Isn't it weird?"

Glancing at Su Fengji, Yang Ping said lightly, "I see what General Zhang said, it's all sincere words, from the bottom of my heart, why is it to blame? Judge Su, don't make rash comments, so as not to chill your loyal and good heart."

"Yang Yaya is right, he is lying." After receiving such an answer, Su Fengji's expression changed, and he immediately replied.

That face turned a little bit colder, but soon, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth again, the kind that didn't smile.Glancing at Yang Bin coldly, Su Fengji turned his gaze to the boy behind Liu Zhiyuan, who kept his cool.

Liu Chengyou watched all this silently, with a calm expression. In this "big show", he could be regarded as one of the executive directors. He performed casually, but he did not deviate from the script outline at all.The only thing that surprises Liu Chengyou is that Zhang Yanwei, a martial artist, has such profound performance skills.
Liu Zhiyuan's remarks did not dampen the enthusiasm of the petitioners. As the situation fermented, more and more people came to hear the news and join in the fun.

In order to avoid troubles, after thinking about it, Liu Zhiyuan had no choice but to say: "You wait for a while, and tomorrow, I will ask you for a definite answer!"

　In the new week, ask for collections, ask for recommended tickets.In the process of signing the contract, there is still a bit of a rush.
