Chapter 43 Dangerous Situation
The county magistrate was just as King Qian guessed, not to mention life-saving food, but he was reluctant to provide any supplies in the county to outsiders.

As a county parent official, his current ability can only guarantee the personal and property safety of the people in the county. As for the refugees and nobles outside the city, they are not within the scope of his duties.He is under no obligation to provide them with security.

The master pondered for a while, then asked softly: "My lord, really don't care about King Qian and others outside the city? Those are big figures in the capital, and they are existences that we usually cannot reach. Are you really not afraid of offending them?"

The county magistrate was very embarrassed, he rubbed the center of his brows, "It doesn't matter, we can't afford it either. Regardless of the tens of thousands of refugees outside the city, the thousands of people in the team of King Qian and others, and the people in our county The number of people is equal, if the food is distributed to them, the people in the city will have to drink the northwest wind."

The most frightening thing is that there will be no food in the city. Without the refugees from outside the city storming the gate, the city will be in chaos by itself.

At that time, it would be impossible for the twenty or so yamen servants of the county government, plus hundreds of strong men recruited, to guard the entire county.

The master frowned slightly, "If you don't plan to help King Qian, then don't open the city gates, just let someone hang a letter from the city wall. Don't let the city gates open for a moment and be broken by refugees."

The county magistrate played with the jade pendant on his waist, "Master is right. If the gate of the city breaks through, the people in this city, including you and me, will suffer! I heard that the capital city of Yuzhou is shutting its doors to protect itself. , not to mention that for a small official like you and me, it is a great merit to be able to hold on to the existing one-acre three-point land. I dare not expect too much in other aspects for the time being!"

The master nodded: "Master Bo is still complaining to me this morning. Since he has been in charge of Bo, this year is the poorest year. Last year, the whole county had no harvest, and the tax was not even a grain of grain was collected. This year's spring planting It can’t be sown, so it can be seen that this year’s taxation will fall through again, and now the official warehouse and righteous warehouse can only go in and out, and it’s so empty that the rat kicking contest can start.”

The county magistrate sighed greatly, and said with regret: "It's just a pity that I got to know King Qian this time. If not, you and I have seized this opportunity, and maybe we can go further in our official career."

Master frowned, "It can only be said that God's will tricks people."

Between life and official career, everyone will choose to live first.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, survival in troubled times, food is even more effective than gold and silver.

The power of King Qian should not be underestimated. He cut off the way to buy grain in the county, and he still has other channels to get grain.

Xia Jing looked at the baskets put down on the city wall from a distance, and knew that there was no way to replenish food and grass today.

Sure enough, it didn't take long to hear Wang Qian's furious scolding from Wang Jia!

"This king is a majestic first-rank prince of the Great Yu Dynasty. He, a small county magistrate, dares to shut the door to this king. This king sees that he has eaten a bear's heart and a leopard! He doesn't even have the consciousness to do his best, and he deserves to be the parent officer!"

The chief guard squinted his eyes to look at the city gate in the distance, and asked solemnly: "My lord, since he is so ignorant, should we break down this city gate? This dog official refuses to open the city gate. They have been greedy for ink, and they dare not trade with us only because they can't produce food."

When King Qian heard the words, he pondered for a while, "Don't say it, it's really possible."

Seeing that King Qian was moved, the chief guard asked for his opinion again, "My lord, are you going to call the brothers together?"

King Qian didn't make a decision right away, but asked someone to invite his staff to discuss it.

When King Qian was young, he was a well-known dandy uncle in the capital. He often recruited a group of dandy brothers to stroll around the flower houses together.

In order to conform to his dandy image, the palace has not kept many aides, and there are only two people in total.

Moreover, the two staff members lived a leisurely life in the palace, and sometimes they had the illusion that their lives in old age were like this.

When the staff came over and heard about King Qian's plan, they were so frightened that they hurriedly asked, "My lord, who the hell came up with this bad idea?"

"What? What's wrong?" King Qian glanced at the chief guard without any trace, and asked the two staff members.

The damned chief guard shrank his neck and didn't dare to make a sound. He felt aggrieved in his heart. He felt that he could be killed if he disrespected the prince.How can his brain compare with these two staff who have turned their minds!

Seeing that the prince didn't say who came up with the idea, the staff was furious, "My lord, let's not talk about the impact of attacking the county on your reputation, let's talk about the moment, the chief guard recruited all the guards to break the city gate, the prince and Who is responsible for the safety of the family?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the refugees staying outside the city gate, "Do you know how many refugees there are in this large open space outside the city gate? There are at least [-] to [-] refugees. The numbers are astounding. If they rise up and rob, we will all be finished!"

"In such a dangerous place, someone dares to encourage the prince to find trouble with the county magistrate. How is this different from seeking death?"

After all, the staff looked suspiciously at the chief guard standing aside.

The head guard wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked guiltily, "Why are you staring at me all the time? I'm only responsible for the safety of the prince, and I'm just on guard here."

King Qian waved his hand to let the chief guard back down, and asked again: "Then according to what you want, what should we do now?"

The staff observed the refugees gathered outside the city gate for a while, and said solemnly: "My lord, this place is full of fierceness and death. It is not an auspicious place. It is better for us to leave as soon as possible. We can think about food and grass after we leave this place." Method."

King Qian believed in their abilities. After listening to their suggestions, he didn't stop for a moment, and directly ordered the team to move forward at full speed. His attitude without hesitation made the two staff members quite satisfied.

It's better to meet a master who listens to persuasion than one who doesn't!

Sitting in the carriage, Xia Jing listened to the conversation between King Qian and the others with mental strength, and she was sweating for the chief guard.

This kid's bad idea is really a fatal rhythm.

Fortunately, the aides of the palace finally stopped them, otherwise she was going to go off in person to stop their crazy actions.

Withdrew her mental power from Wang Jia, she observed the refugees around her, and found the greed and craziness in their eyes, Xia Jing instantly raised her vigilance.

I only hope that my team can leave here as quickly as possible, but the huge team stopped, and it is not an easy task to start again, the speed cannot be increased.

The carriage at the front had already turned a corner and could no longer see its shadow, and the carriage behind was still parked in place and could not move.

Tens of thousands of refugees watched the carriage full of supplies leave before their eyes, how could they remain indifferent?

When more than half of the team had turned the bend in the post road, they moved.

With such a large number of refugees rushing over to grab supplies, even if there were many guards with knives in the team, it would not help.
