Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 684
Last night, the people in the Shannian camp pushed down a wall together, and then clashed with officers and soldiers. Many people escaped while being killed or injured.

Right now the city is in turmoil, if the imperial court orders the massacre of the people from the Shannian Camp, Shengjing will become a sea of ​​blood.Of course, the people in the Shannian camp will not wait to be killed, and will definitely resist desperately. This turmoil will continue to spread and last for a long time.

Thinking of this, Liu Yunxiang sighed a few times.

Before the time comes, she has to give the emperor a headache for a few days.

For the next few days, Liu Yunxiang lived in this alley with his two children and did not go out all day.It wasn't until early this morning that Zijin was asked to go outside to see what was going on.

"These people in the Shannian camp are like mice. They don't know where to go during the day. The officers and soldiers searched the sky and couldn't find them. But at night, they slipped out, robbed houses, looted shops, and let the court officials find them." They are very headache. It has been ten days, the people dare not go to the streets during the day, and they dare not sleep peacefully at night, and the people are full of complaints, but this mess has not been resolved, but it has become more and more chaotic." Zijin said while eating buns .

There were several account books stacked in front of Liu Yunxiang, and while she was fiddling with the abacus, she listened to Zijin talk about the situation outside.

"Didn't the court order the killing?"

"It's obvious that there is no such thing, but those who were brought back to the Shannian Camp will be dead or alive."

Liu Yunxiang counted to the end, wrote a number at the end of the account book, and then handed the account book to Zijin.

"You return these account books to Zhang Qi, and then ask him to prepare this number for me. You don't need to give it to me. It will be transferred to Jiangnan Bank to prepare for the rebuilding of the brocade workshop in the spring of next year."

Zijin put the buns in his hand at the end, and then took the account book, "One more thing, the old prince went to the grain shop to look for you every day, Brother Zhang followed your instructions, saying that you were in a bad mood and no one would see you, but He still goes every day."

Liu Yunxiang thought about it, and said, "Then let's go to the grain shop tomorrow."

The next day, after breakfast, Liu Yunxiang took Zijin out.

When I came to the street, although I had already expected the bleak situation on the street, I saw with my own eyes that all the shops facing the street were closed, and many of them were smashed. People in rags hurried through, and the north wind whizzed by, making people feel chills.

During the reign of the first emperor, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the force of the four directions was intimidating. It can be said that the country is rich and the people are strong. strife.

Great glory is already at the peak of the great summer, and the emperor sits on the temple, living in the deep palace, listening to the flattery, he feels that he has made great contributions, and he can be called a wise king.

It is ridiculous to think about the small kindness camp, which has not been properly managed and has caused such disasters.

The further he walked, the heavier Liu Yunxiang's mood became.Passing a fork, he heard movement from the north, Liu Yunxiang looked over and saw several officers and soldiers chasing a group of people from the Shannian Camp.

There were old and young, men and women in this group, and they also had something in their hands, so they fled in all directions.

These officers and soldiers were strong and strong, and they could have been caught, but they were stopped by a person who appeared suddenly.

This person is none other than the old prince.

He stopped those officers and soldiers from chasing them.

The leading officers and soldiers said with a bitter face: "Old Prince, they are fugitives. We were ordered to arrest them. If you make trouble like this, it means helping them escape."

The old prince was still wearing his shabby long gown, he yawned and retracted his outstretched hands, the rascal said, "Are you chasing fugitives?"

The leader looked helplessly at the person in front of him, asking this question without knowing it.

The old prince laughed aloud: "I didn't eat and drink enough, and then I got sleepy and stretched myself. I really didn't want to stop you."

"You have used this phrase several times."

"I'll definitely come up with something new next time."

The leader didn't dare to do anything to the old prince, so he had to bow to him, "You old man, don't make things difficult for us. If you really want to help them, you can ask the emperor. The emperor ordered the troops to withdraw, and we will return to the camp immediately."

After finishing speaking, the leader greeted the officers and soldiers behind him, and continued to chase those people.

The old prince stroked his beard, turned around and saw Liu Yunxiang standing at the intersection, as if he had seen a Bodhisattva, he hurried over, ran up to him, with an earnest expression on his face, he almost paid his respects.

Under the pious eyes of the old prince, Liu Yunxiang smiled faintly: "You have been tired these few days."

In a word, the old prince almost burst into tears. No one could understand him, only the grandniece and granddaughter-in-law in front of him that he didn't want to admit.

"You are finally willing to show up, but let me wait!"

Liu Yunxiang sighed slightly, "It's not convenient to talk here, let's go to the grain shop."

"Good good."

When I came to the grain shop, the servants brought refreshments.The old prince couldn't wait for others to pour tea, so he poured himself a full cup and drank it while blowing on the hot air. It seemed that he was really thirsty.

After drinking a cup of tea, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"There are still 400 people in the Shannian camp, which has already been cut in half." The old prince said heartbrokenly, and looked at Liu Yunxiang at the same time, but saw that she would feel heartbroken if she didn't say it, and she didn't care at all.

"These are real people. Most of them are implicated, not real criminals."

Liu Yunxiang listened to the old prince's heartbroken words, she picked up a cup of tea and sipped slowly.

"The emperor ordered the closure of the Shannian camp, thinking of trapping these people to death, but they couldn't do too much, so they gave a meal with thin soup and little water at noon every day. I bought a lot of food from you. Relief of these people with less food finally saved their lives. But it was getting colder and colder, and they couldn't bear it anymore, so they forced their way out after all. The imperial court ordered the arrest, but the arrested people were not released back to the Shannian camp. Instead, they were taken directly outside the city, killed, and buried on the spot. For a while, I didn’t know if it was right for me to give them relief food.”

"The old prince wants to save people, of course there is nothing wrong with that." Liu Yunxiang said.

"But I really can't save them."

"The old prince has done his best."

"I can only think of you when I think about it."

Liu Yunxiang put down his teacup, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, and said with a slight smile, "Don't be joking, old prince, what can I, a weak woman, do for me?"

The old prince hurriedly said: "Before you proposed to let go of the Kindness Camp and let you take them in and let them do the work for you. At that time, I thought you were overthinking your capabilities, but now... Now this is the only way to try it."

Liu Yunxiang heaved a long sigh when he heard the words, "I plan to open a brocade workshop in Jiangnan to revitalize the brocade industry in Jiangnan. I really need a lot of manpower, but..."

"Just what?"

Liu Yunxiang sighed again, "The emperor wants His Royal Highness to divorce me. I wash my face with tears every day, so I don't have the heart to revitalize the brocade industry. Thinking about it, I was really ignorant before, and I will be an abandoned woman in peace and contentment from now on." Bar."
