Chapter 1011: What happened outside Beijing shocked everyone
Prince Xian's trick means that the soldiers don't know when to run or which road they are running on. They don't know when the soldiers will suddenly fall from the sky and run away. Although it cannot be completely eliminated, there may be dangers on these roads.
The evil things that happened, but it has absolutely deterred those who want to do evil. Create
Especially those who are not very courageous or those who suddenly become evil because they are desperate. As long as the soldiers in these trainings have caught evil people and punished them severely, there will definitely be people who dare not have evil thoughts again.
It seems that Prince Xian is just training the soldiers of the city defense camp, but in fact Prince Xian has already contributed to the tranquility of the capital.
The common people are not fools. Maybe they will be afraid and puzzled at the soldiers in the city defense camp who appear on the road at first. But as time goes by, when they find that with the appearance of these soldiers, they are much safer on the road. Naturally.
You will be grateful to the wise prince who allowed these soldiers to appear on the road.
"Our prince has several Zhuangzi in the capital. The people who work in the Zhuangzi are those who retired due to injuries in the army, or the family members of the soldiers who died."
"The prince always keeps only 30% of the grain he collects from the village every year. The other 10% will be distributed to nearby places in need, such as some poor villages or the people living in the south of the city."
"Last winter was cold, so the prince bought a lot of cotton-padded clothes and quilts and distributed them to the people in the south of the city, as well as to several villages in the mountains where travel is inconvenient."
As for the remaining percentage of food, as the Minister of the Ministry of War, I have to think about the soldiers of the world.
Although Qi Baoer could not help much on his own, and those soldiers who looked at a lot of food were a drop in the bucket, but sometimes they could save lives at critical moments.
The cavalry also talked about a lot of 'little things', such as the fact that there was once a poor man who had nowhere to redress his grievances. When Prince Xian wandered down the street, he rushed over to complain with all his life. At that time, the woman almost died under the sword of the guard.
The person she was suing was still an official, and she would be ignored if she changed her mind. However, Prince Xian listened to her complaint without any impatience, and even accepted her petition, asking the official who she wanted to sue to know.
All the children were investigated, and the whole family was sent to prison within a few days.
Isn't this a good prince who is asking for life for the people?
For the common people, although this thing has not happened to them, of course they don't want it to happen to them; but as ordinary people, Prince Xian's help to the woman is not the same as helping himself.
In a word: With the virtuous prince around, the people's sense of security will be qualitatively improved.
After Zhou Wenxun thanked the Shadowless Army cavalry, he turned around and looked at Mrs. Zhou holding the child, with tears in his eyes.
Mrs. Zhou's eyes were also red, she understood, she understood everything.
To be honest, the couple has always been worried about going to Beijing.
The capital is a contradictory place for the couple. It is prosperous, beautiful, powerful and solemn. It is the center of power and the most desirable place for officials, whether for themselves or for the people.
But the couple's only experience of going to Beijing made them have no nostalgia for this place, but more of a fear.
It is the helplessness of people like them who have no backing and nowhere to speak out, and even... they have complaints.
The emperor personally invited them, so they had no choice but to come, and they dared not not come.
But, what happens after arriving? Chuang
What will be waiting for them?
How is the new emperor like?
Zhou Wenxun, an outsider from a small county town with no aristocratic family to help him, would sink silently in the deep pool in central Beijing, or could he barely float?
Although Zhou Wenxun was brought back by Prince Xian himself, as long as Prince Xian did not express his disinterest in Zhou Wenxun, to outsiders, Prince Xian would be a disguised patron of Zhou Wenxun, at least he would not explicitly target Zhou Wenxun.
What's more, before they set off, they both heard Qiu Yu's words in the carriage. The couple were both smart people and knew that those words were meant by Prince Xian to calm their minds through Qiu Yu's words.
It was Prince Xian who stretched out her legs for them to hug.
This indeed made them feel at ease. After all, Prince Xian's reputation had spread to Yicheng. Being able to embrace Prince Xian's lap would definitely make his official career hundreds of times better than what Zhou Wenxun could do on his own. Creation
It's just...
Zhou Wenxun was a man of his own perseverance. He did not fear power but only served the people in his life. He was willing to suffer for decades and never bowed his head to those who forced him.
If Zhou Wenxun only wanted to get promoted and make a fortune, he would already have a place in Beijing if he had the ability and a beautiful wife.
What was really unsettling deep in his heart was: Does she deserve the word "virtuous" from Prince Xian?
Prince Xian saved them all the way and took their family back to Beijing with all his heart. He took such good care of them. It can be said that everything was taken care of including food, clothing, housing and transportation.
His wife's youngest son is very weak, especially the younger son. Before setting off, he was worried about whether the younger son could survive the journey.
But now, Zhou Wenxun glanced at his youngest son in his wife's arms with disgust. He was even fatter than before he set off. Do you think this is unreasonable?
Nothing should be like this. Zhou Wenxun knew it himself. Prince Xian's trip was for the sake of the people of the two border cities and the stability of the border. Taking him back to Beijing was just a way.
Although the emperor wrote to him personally, the letter was not so heavy that it required the dignified Prince Xian to personally deliver it, and he was not so important that Prince Xian personally came to pick him up when the emperor's letter arrived.
The Qilin Kingdom is so big and has countless talented people. Zhou Wenxun doesn't know what caught the emperor's eye in him, but he is sure that he is by no means the only person who can catch the emperor's eye, let alone the best among them.
The most important thing for an official is to be self-righteous, otherwise death is not far away.
Therefore, Zhou Wenxun saw in his eyes the care and protection Prince Xian gave to their family of four all the way.
The virtuous prince is kind to his family, a great kindness from heaven.
If Prince Xian is not the person he thinks of, then where should he go? Create
He opened some curtains and looked out. Looking at the people kneeling on the ground by the road, the tears that had been in Zhou Wenxun's eyes finally fell, but the corners of his lips were raised high.
When an official like Zhou Wenxun went to Beijing to report on his duties, there were two types of accommodation after arriving in the capital. One was that those who had a family in the capital would naturally go home to live there, the other was to live in a free post house or to stay in an inn with their own money.
However, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, no official of this kind has stayed in an inn when returning to Beijing to report on their duties. Regardless of whether it is because they have empty pockets or to show their integrity, those who do not have mansions in Beijing always choose to live in inns.
Zhou Wenxun originally planned to live in a post house, but he was really poor. The couple dug into their pockets together and found that the total amount was less than ten taels of silver. Even some farmers had more money in their homes than he, the prefect of the state.
Who would have thought that no one would ask him where he lived? When the carriage stopped, uniform shouts came from outside the carriage.
"Congratulations to welcome the prince back to your home." Chuang
