Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1396 The Killing of the Refugees
The next day, the weather in Bazhong City looked gloomy, as if it was going to rain again.

In fact, after ten consecutive days of heavy rain, this place will still rain from time to time.

It was raining continuously, which led to the current situation.

The gloomy weather is quite refreshing.

After Li Chengqian got up, he sent someone to call Rourou.

Rourou's eyes were a little red and swollen, I don't know if it was because she cried or because she didn't have a good rest.

"Too... Your Highness the Crown Prince,"

Today's Rourou already knew Li Chengqian's identity, or he already knew it, and she didn't show it until this time.

Li Chengqian nodded, and said, "I called you here, just to ask you something. Do ordinary people own a lot of land in Bazhong City?"

Rourou suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but she was very calm on the surface, and said: "His Royal Highness, the land in the hands of the people is relatively barren, and there are very few good ones."

"The land in Bazhong can be regarded as having a lot of fertile land, and the people here are not particularly dense, so why don't these people have much fertile land?"

Rourou smiled bitterly, and said: "Your Highness, ordinary people have limited financial resources, but if they have a headache, they have no money to see a doctor. They have no choice but to sell the land, and those who can afford it must be wealthy businessmen. , or the rich and powerful, over time, the land of many common people has all been in the hands of rich businessmen and powerful people."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian frowned slightly, and then said: "Land is allowed to be bought and sold. It is normal for these people to sell land for money."

"His Royal Highness, if you buy it at the normal price, it is normal, but the key is that those people see that you are short of money, so they deliberately lower the price. Those who want to sell the land to save their lives have no choice but to buy it. Sell ​​the field."

Many people like to do things like taking advantage of the fire to rob.

But when it comes to selling land, it cannot be said that those wealthy businessmen and dignitaries did something wrong.

They really did nothing wrong. Buying affordable things at the lowest price has always been what everyone wants. However, some people have achieved it, while others have not.

Li Chengqian's reaction was a little flat. Originally, he just asked about this matter casually, and he could only say that he was preparing to find out.

Seeing Li Chengqian like this, Rourou suddenly became a little anxious, and said: "His Royal Highness, those powerful and powerful people sometimes bully others by using their power to buy and sell, even the government can't do anything to them."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's eyebrows froze. If some people had no choice but to sell the land at a low price, no one could say anything about it. It could only be said that those rich and powerful businessmen had missed it.

But if there are wealthy businessmen and dignitaries who bully others and forcefully buy and sell, then it will not work.

"Is there really such a thing?"

Rou Rou nodded seriously: "Of course, if His Royal Highness doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate."

Li Chengqian said oh, he has already sent someone to investigate, and today he called Rourou, really just asking casually.

Now, he asked about the same.

"Okay, the prince knows, now that Zhang Dawang has been killed, you are safe, go home and reunite with your family."

This is also one of Li Chengqian's reasons for calling Rou Rou to send him away.

Maybe last night, Li Chengqian was still a little impulsive and wanted to have this girl, but after dawn, his rationality recovered, and this idea naturally disappeared.

Rou Rou was a little surprised, but she quickly responded.

Zhang Dawang is dead, she is safe, and indeed she does not need to hide in the post house anymore.

After Rourou left, Li Chengqian and Ma Zhou also left the post house and went to the Governor's Mansion.

The porridge tent is still being opened there. In order to avoid accidents, they must have a look.

Moreover, there is one thing that Li Chengqian wanted to ask Bagu, but he didn't ask about the fullness that came yesterday.

When I came to the governor's mansion, there were still many refugees on the street of the governor's mansion.

The smoke was still rising, some of the refugees were still eating, and some were already full and began to wander around.

As soon as Li Chengqian and the others came over, a group of refugees rushed over, they were very excited.

"Your Highness, thank you so much, Your Highness."

"If it wasn't for His Royal Highness, my little grandson would have starved to death. His Royal Highness is our savior."

"........."

When a group of refugees thanked them like this, the other refugees suddenly ran over when they saw it.

They are all the people who have been favored by Li Chengqian. If some people are grateful, if others don't do it, it will appear that they are ungrateful and ungrateful, and that will be bad.

Of course, these refugees are really grateful to Li Chengqian.

The favor in this world is the gift of food, right?

Because it's lifesaving.

There were more and more refugees. Seeing this situation, Li Chengqian's heart warmed and he was very pleased.

It is really a very comfortable thing to be recognized by the people.

But when Li Chengqian was getting comfortable, among the refugees, suddenly several refugees rushed towards Li Chengqian. When they rushed, they did not know when they had an extra dagger in their hands.

These assassins were very fast. After rushing, they wanted to directly kill Prince Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian's eyebrows condensed slightly, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.

Seeing that the assassin was about to succeed, the guard next to Li Chengqian had already reacted, and suddenly rushed over.

In a moment, the two sides immediately fought in one place.

Seeing that those assassins failed to kill Li Chengqian in succession, their hearts sank.

If you miss the opportunity, it will not be easy to succeed.

At this time, the streets were chaotic, and the refugees kept fleeing. It was a bit troublesome for the assassins behind to rush in. Here, Ma Zhou led people to escort Li Chengqian, and rushed to the governor's mansion.

Once you enter the Governor's Mansion, everything will be safe.

There was constant fighting on the street, and soon, Ma Zhou and the others arrived at the Governor's Mansion.

At this time, the gate of the governor's mansion was closed, as if he didn't know what was going on outside.

"Open the door, open the door quickly..." A guard yelled and kept kicking the door, but there seemed to be no one in the governor's mansion, and no one responded at all.

Some assassins rushed over, and soon, another guard rushed to kill.

These guards are all elites among the elites, and their force is astonishing.

Although there were many assassins, these guards were not considered weak, but Li Chengqian did not bring too many guards with him when he went out. If the stalemate continued, the situation would definitely be the worst for them.

"Master Ma, what should we do in this situation?"

Li Chengqian was a little worried and nervous, Ma Zhou's eyes narrowed slightly, he suddenly looked at the fleeing refugees and shouted: "His Royal Highness orders, whoever can kill the assassin will be rewarded with a hundred guan."
