Civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty, begging me to ascend the throne

Zephyr Hitachi
In the morning, Jiang Sile just woke up from the posthouse, washed up in a hurry, and after breakfast, got into the carriage in a hurry.

The convoy moved forward slowly like a tortoise.

Usually at night, if there is a town nearby, they will gallop to the post house in the town to rest.Usually, the guards who are going forward to explore the road have already notified the posthouse to make preparations.

But if there are no towns around, or the towns are too far away, General Li will choose to set up camp on the spot and continue traveling after dawn.

After riding in a carriage—to the post station—in a carriage—to camp on the spot—in a carriage… After a few days, they finally approached the first big town after departure, which was one of Jiang Sile’s fiefdoms: Jiangzhou .

Jiangzhou, rich in products and fertile land, is one of the most famous lands of fish and rice.

There is also a major specialty in Jiangzhou: Jiangzhou Scholars.

Above the court, officials from Jiangzhou accounted for quite a few. Among them, the highest and most prominent one was Liu Fan, the current Secretary of the Household Department. This lord was in charge of money and food in the world.

There are many talents in Jiangzhou scholars, and they are worthy of being outstanding people.

In Luzhi's story, Jiang Sile is also looking forward to the first tourist attraction: Jiangzhou.

At noon, when the team paused for reorganization, Jiang Sile got out of the carriage and ran to Li Yancheng, who had been promoted to Hussar General, to ask questions.

Li Yancheng recounted helplessly what he had seen and heard when he passed by Jiangzhou, such as "the rich man in Jiangzhou spends a lot of money and the beauty smiles" "the Tingfeng Pavilion by the riverside has a poem inscribed by a famous poet surnamed Li in the previous dynasty"...

Not only Jiang Sile and Luzhi's master and servant listened with gusto, but the strong men sitting beside them also had their lunch accompanied by the gossip in Li Yancheng's mouth.

Speaking of Xingshi, the black-faced burly man sitting not far away started to clap his hands.

This made Li Yancheng amused and helpless, and urged everyone to get on the road quickly.

There are really many people in their group.

Jiang Sile's personal attendants alone included nine court ladies and twelve eunuchs, plus Jiang Sile and Lu Zhi, there were 23 of them.

But not only that, but also guards, and guards of three teams with different leaders and different origins.

The most numerous were the guards of the peace mission led by Li Yancheng. They were mostly drawn by the Beijing camp and the imperial army, with a total of 200 people.

Don't dislike the small number of 200 people, these people will live with Jiang Sile in Qingyi and obey her command.In the end, it will completely become Jiang Sile's private army.

The second team is the 45 strong men sent by the prince before leaving, and these people will follow her to Qingyi.

And because most of these people are domestic slaves, their loyalty is very high.

Even if Jiang Sile asked them to chop off Qingyi Shanyu's head, they would not hesitate.

The last team is the Qingyi knights, with 100 people.This is the guard sent by Qingyi to escort her, but Jiang Sile thought that it was probably because she was afraid that she would die halfway and not get the gold and silver from those seven states.

The leader of this group of knights is called A Yishi, and he is also a cold man.

On the way, Jiang Sile once signaled Luzhi to talk to this person, to find out some details.

But this person is like a log, he can only snort coldly.Occasionally look at Jiang Sile's eyes, as if she is some kind of troublesome woman, not only look down on her, but also avoid her.

"It's really boring..." Jiang Sile pouted, lifted the bright yellow curtains on the carriage in boredom, and looked at the forest with thousands of sails outside.

"Your Highness, bear with it, it's only a day's journey to Jiangzhou." Lu Zhi took out some snacks, most of which were dried meat and oranges that had been prepared earlier.

It was a tiring journey for Lu Zhi, Jiang Sile didn't trust other people, not to mention serving them, not getting close.

The eunuchs and maids were all arranged in the carriage at the back, so they couldn't see anyone on weekdays.But after thinking about it, I know that the treatment will not be very good.

Now Jiang Sile has Lu Zhi to accompany her wherever she goes.Lvzhi smiled helplessly at the carriage, what a sweet worry~ Your Highness really relies on me!
A brown horse passed by the carriage, Jiang Sile looked up, and saw that it was that annoying Ah Yishi.

Jiang Sile turned his head away, lowered the curtain, and didn't want to talk to him.

Suddenly the carriage in front stopped, and there was a loud noise.

The swaying curtains could vaguely see the brown horse speeding forward.

Jiang Sile on the carriage also frowned, a little worried: "Go and have a look."

Luzhi got out of the carriage obediently, and came back after a while and said, "There are people begging around the convoy ahead, and they were driven back by General Li."

"beg?"

"Yes, and there are quite a number of people. It looks like there must be 100 people. It is because of the large number of people that we dare not stop our carriage..." Luzhi said angrily.

When Jiang Sile thought about it, he felt something was wrong. "There are so many people? But everyone says that Jiangzhou is a land of fish and rice? There have been no natural disasters in the past two years, so why are there so many beggars?"

Luzhi couldn't say anything in this regard, and could only guess, "Maybe there is no business?"

Jiang Sile lifted the door curtain of the carriage and jumped off, and Lu Zhi followed in a panic.

The two walked past several carriages in front, and saw Li Yancheng and Ah Yishi chasing beggars with their hands outstretched.

Jiang Sile saw that there were no beggars, they were just a bunch of skeletons covered in human skin.Regardless of whether they are men, women, old or young, they are all wrapped in a layer of tattered linen, their complexions are yellow, and some are pale.

Their physiques, not to mention General Li, but even a weak woman like Luzhi, would fall three or four times with just one push.

But looking at the skeleton with protruding sternum, it is estimated that he will die soon after this push.

Most of them shouted indistinctly:
"My lord, do me a favor..."

"Please give me some food..."

"Please..."

"Food...give me food"

Li Yancheng had asked the guards to block these people, but he couldn't do anything, so he could only move slowly. The soldiers in front shouted to evacuate, but the situation remained deadlocked.

At this time, Ah Yishi beside him seemed to be saying something, but Li Yancheng frowned and told him to back away, and raised the sword at his waist towards him.

Immediately afterwards, Ah Yi said something else, pointing a knife at Li Yancheng very provocatively, General Li blushed.
