Space at hand: Pick up a prince to farm

Chapter 576
On the way from Xunzhou to Beijing, what Cang Xiuxuan saw was even more shocking than what he had seen before.

But all the bark that could be seen had been peeled off. Without boiling, they just chewed it dry. Some people were even forced to eat loess directly.

But how can these things be digested?

It does make you feel full when you first eat it, but after a while, it will cause great pain due to indigestion.

Many people died as a result.

But even so, people still eat bark and loess.

There is no way, people are so hungry that everything turns into food. Even if they know that they will die, they can no longer bear this feeling of hunger.

Cang Xiuxuan, a grown man, couldn't help but blush when he saw such a scene.

On the way, he sent a letter directly to Cang Yi, asking him to immediately gather troops and enter Shangjing secretly.

The current situation in Shangjing is also very bad. The entire palace is almost in chaos. The emperor's words gradually lose their prestige, and everyone starts to run around for themselves.

If it weren't for the Imperial Guard still clinging to the emperor's hand, he, the emperor, would have been ousted long ago.

After Cang Xiuxuan and Song Chen arrived in Shangjing, they were also shocked by the scene in Shangjing. They thought that the emperor's feet would be better, but they didn't expect that this place was no different from the cities they had seen before.

Except for those wealthy families, the lives of ordinary people are almost blind.

Having made up their minds to overthrow the regime, Cang Xiuxuan and Song Chen hid in Shangjing directly after their arrival, waiting for Cang and his people to arrive.

The emperor in the palace has long been at a loss what to do in this world, and he goes to have fun all day long.

The ministers were all filled with hatred, but they were all afraid of the imperial army's methods and did not dare to say a word.

On the next ten days, Cang Yi and his army successfully arrived outside Shangjing City. Cang Xiuxuan took Song Chen to meet them outside the city.Most of these people are very familiar with the situation in Shangjing, and Cang Xiuxuan can clearly tell every fortress in Shangjing, especially some locations in the palace.

This gave them a great advantage in this operation, but no one dared to take it lightly.

"I will first bring 1 people into the city. After entering the city, they will quickly hide. Someone from the palace will come to meet them. The remaining people will wait for the signal outside the city. Once they receive my signal, they will immediately enter the city and go straight to the palace. , if you encounter any obstacles on the way, you will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes, Master!"

It had been a long time since I heard the words "kill without mercy" from the master's mouth. For a moment, everyone felt that the blood in their bodies was burning. After so many years of grievance, it was finally time to vent their anger.

After explaining these, Cang Xiuxuan took Song Chen into the imperial city and entered the palace.

After entering the palace, Cang Xiuxuan began to contact his people, and soon the plan was finalized.

The emperor didn't know what he was thinking, but he actually gave Cang Xiuxuan an excellent opportunity.

Palace banquet!

Officials of the third rank and above can bring their families into the palace. Of course, no one will miss this opportunity. After Cang Xiuxuan arranged everything, they quietly waited for the opportunity.

"Is the emperor blind or something? He even holds a palace banquet at this time. Is he afraid that the people's resentment is not enough?"

Song Chen really couldn't help but complain. I'm afraid only a short-sighted person could do such a thing.

Cang Xiuxuan smiled and touched her face, "The common people are not within the scope of his consideration. I can somewhat guess the purpose of this palace banquet."

At the moment, the two of them have dressed up as officials from the court, blending in with the crowd to attend the palace banquet.The two of them chatted and laughed all the way, and although they didn't use their faces, they behaved very naturally.

After they disguised themselves this time, they borrowed the identity of a third-rank official in the court. Their position was not very forward, and they could clearly see the entire palace banquet.

The highlight of the palace banquet was singing and singing, but Song Chen rarely saw these, and now he was enjoying it.

Cang Xiuxuan sat next to her and looked at her serious look, his eyes full of doting.

"If you like it, read more later."

"Do you want to be like him?"

It was difficult to speak in large numbers, so Song Chen didn't make it clear, but Cang Xiuxuan naturally understood it immediately.

He shook his head helplessly, "You can't see it only here."

Song Chen raised his eyebrows, "It seems almost interesting if you look at it elsewhere, but as for these things, seeing them once is enough. I'm just curious, and I don't really like them."

As a modern person, I have never seen anything.

She has seen more beautiful scenes than this on TV, and she is so serious now, just because this is also the first time she has seen the palace banquet with her own eyes, and she is really curious.

Now that I've seen it, when I look back and think about it, it seems like nothing more than that.

There are only so many things for people in this era to do for entertainment.

Cang Xiuxuan also followed Song Chen's words and thought of the place where Song Chen lived that he had seen in his dream before. There were so many things that he had never heard of before.

She must be just curious about this.

"After these songs and dances are over, it's the highlight of the palace banquet."

Cang Xiuxuan leaned closer to Song Chen and whispered softly into her ear.

This scene is actually a bit misleading, because Song Chen is wearing men's clothes at the moment. Originally, she also planned to wear women's clothes, but men and women will be separated at the palace banquet. This separation plan will cause problems, so she just changed Got an identity.

Fortunately, no one noticed them at this time, otherwise at the palace banquet, two men biting their ears would definitely cause trouble.

Song Chen became interested in the highlight of Cang Xiuxuan's talk, "Are you talking about the real purpose of this palace banquet?"

Cang Xiuxuan nodded, "If these ministers don't reveal their wealth today, I'm afraid they won't be able to leave."

The emperor had done this once before, leaving all the ministers behind and sending people directly to get the money. After such a long time, the previous money should have been almost spent. If he guessed correctly, The emperor is ready to repeat his old tricks on this matter.

Song Chen understood instantly, "It's really greedy."

As the singing and dancing dispersed, it was time for the emperor to speak.

"My dear friends, do you feel comfortable today?"

As soon as he spoke, everyone's hearts tightened, as if this was already a conditioned reflex. Now as long as the emperor talks properly, something will happen. If they have a choice, they really don't want to participate in this mess. Palace banquet!
