When I woke up, my whole family was in rebellion!

Chapter 89 Refugees making trouble?

The victims are still waiting for food to save their lives, but now there are insufficient manpower, it is really difficult to bring all of them to Datong.And the rest of the people were hurt and tired, even if they wanted to persevere, they couldn't do it at all.

Gu Xingzhi's calmness and sternness when facing the assassin today made these people have a different view of him.Now no one speaks alone, everyone waits in unison, without even realizing it, after this battle, they have already regarded Gu Xingzhi as the backbone.

"For those who are not injured, take half of the food and rush to Datong first. After seeing the Datong officials, seek help." Although they lost many people, they were not helpless.Since it is impossible to transport all the large grains, half of them will be transported first.

In this way, it is better than everyone waiting in place.

Fortunately, it is not far from Datong.If you travel fast, you can arrive within two days.Gu Xingzhi was worried that those who went first would be made things difficult, so he arranged for Eunuch Liu to guard the rear, while he took Zong Yan and others to Datong with the vanguard.

"Your Highness, be careful!"

Eunuch Liu was very unwilling to be separated from Gu Xingzhi, after all, to him, Gu Xingzhi was more important than anything else.But he also knew that Gu Xingzhi stayed behind to prevent people from happening in the rear.

Although some officials stayed behind, Eunuch Liu was the one he trusted, so he was the only one.

'Don't worry, when I get to Datong, I will send someone to support you. "

Most of the ones left were wounded, but because they guarded the food, half of the officers and soldiers stayed here.Gu Xingzhi led the people on the road day and night, and finally, before the sun went down the next day, they arrived in Datong.

If we say the disaster described in the emergency report before, it is already shocking.Then when we arrived in Datong, after seeing the scene here with our own eyes, it was even more shocking!
Datong is already like an empty city, there are no peddlers on the street, and all the piles are the bones that no one restrains.In the depressed inn, half of the gate was broken, staggering and shaking in the wind, there were a few cloth tents scattered beside it, and a few broken iron pots fell on the ground.

When Gu Xingzhi brought people to Datong Mansion, the people inside looked haggard, and they looked weak, as if they were about to fall down in a second.

But when they heard that the imperial envoy was coming, their eyes burst into a strong light, "Imperial envoy? It's the imperial court! Is the imperial envoy coming?!"

Gu Xingzhi looked at the straight-eyed little yamen servant in front of him, with a rare look of impatience in his eyes, "Yes, I am an imperial envoy sent by the imperial court to deliver food. Is the Governor of Datong here?"

The little yamen servant felt like he was hallucinating, otherwise, how could he hear the sound of grain?But he quickly recovered from the cold eyes of Gu Xingzhi's personal guards, suddenly jumped up, shouted and rushed in!
"The imperial court is here!"

"There is food!"

"There is food!"

That excited voice, with an unbearable hoarseness, when he yelled these words, seemed to be scraping Gu Xingzhi's heart with a bloody knife—has Datong reached such a situation?
Soon, a group of people came out in a hurry. The leader was an old man with a gray beard, but he was wearing an official uniform. Gu Xingzhi took a closer look and found that this person was not the Fu Yin of Datong, but the Fu Cheng.

Fu Cheng is Fu Yin's assistant officer, and some of the people who follow behind are wearing the official uniform of the county magistrate.Gu Xingzhi was puzzled in his heart, but his face remained calm. After these people saw the ceremony, he said lightly:

"My prince came to rescue the disaster on behalf of the imperial court, why is there no Fu Yin?"

The governor of Datong is a disciple of Prime Minister Zuo, in order not to startle the snake, before he came, Gu Sheng did not announce in the court how he would deal with the governor of Datong.Moreover, he also ordered the Governor of Datong to fully cooperate with Gu Xingzhi in disaster relief. If people who don't know see it, they may think that the governor can pay off the crime.

However, now that other people have come, if it is an ordinary imperial envoy, if the governor wants to show off, then it is not impossible.But he is the prince of the banquet after all, even the left minister dare not lose face with him, this Fu Yin is so courageous!
Datong's Fu Cheng lowered his head and stood there bony, as if he would fall down when the wind blows.He seemed to be hesitating, but also seemed to be making up his mind. Just as he was desperately about to stand up, a young man suddenly walked out from behind him.

"The governor colluded with the squires and withheld relief food, and he has been beheaded by the refugees!"

The young man was wearing a rag shirt with several patches, but it was tidied up very cleanly.He looked at Gu Xingzhi who was about the same age, but there was a sense of vicissitudes in his eyes that didn't match his age, and he spoke forcefully without being stage-frightened at all.

"Oh?" Gu Xingzhi raised his eyebrows, looked at the people standing in front of him, and suddenly wondered: "Since the refugees are making trouble, why are you all standing here? Could it be that the refugees only recognize the government?" Yin alone?!"

He didn't get angry and threatened himself, and scared the person in front of him to his knees. Although the young man also knelt down, there was no trace of fear on his face.

"Returning to Your Highness, the Governor of Datong has committed many evils and has long been regarded as an enemy by the refugees. The disaster was severe, and the people were waiting for the government to rescue them, but the Governor transported the remaining food out of the city overnight and wanted to leave."

He knelt there, neither humble nor overbearing, "Wei Chen and the others originally went to Datong to ask for food. Seeing that the governor fled overnight, they joined forces with the refugees to kill him!"

Gu Xingzhi was really surprised by this. He didn't expect that the local officials would already be in chaos before he started to do anything.If Fu Yin really fled overnight, it must be the news from Yanjing that made him aware that something was wrong.

But these people dared to kill him without the court's decree, which is admirable!
"You know, it is a capital offense to behead an imperial court official!"

"Your Highness, Ming Yu is also killing harm for the people, Your Highness, please spare his life!" Datong's Fucheng knelt in front of Gu Xingzhi. The old man was old, and he almost fell over if he moved these two steps!That Ming Yu was still breezy just now, but seeing this, his eyes were red, "Teacher..."

Gu Xingzhi remained unmoved, "Come here, take him down first. Others, follow me in."

He arranged for someone to escort Ming Yu in, and then led other people into the inner hall.But Zong Yan and others consciously organized their staff and began to distribute food. The empty Datong Mansion was full of people coming and going.And on the shoulders of these people, all they carried was white rice!

Some of the victims came after hearing the news. They helped each other, their eyes glowed with hunger, but they dared not take a step forward.

Zong Yan and those people are very imposing, guarding the door with a knife, so that no one dares to act rashly.If you are hungry, you can gnaw on the bark and carry it, but those people's knives don't have eyes, if you are not careful, your head may fall to the ground!
