2242. Chapter 2242 Those who follow me prosper and those who oppose me perish 02
Deng Yongzhong began to sweat on his forehead. Listening to the meaning, Su Mo suspected that he was instigating it.
Su Mo stared at him coldly and said unceremoniously: "City Lord Deng, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. Someone like you looks diligent and thrifty like a good official, but inside he's full of tricks and schemes. There's nothing you dare not do."
I've seen a lot of officials."
Hearing her suddenly say such explicit words, Deng Yongzhong was stunned.
He murmured: "You, Miss Su, you are going too far."
Su Mo waved her hand impatiently, "Go ahead, don't be so mother-in-law. We are not here for your business. Just keep your heart in mind and be your city lord."
After hearing her words, Deng Yongzhong thought, is it really not for him? Is it for Yue Shaochen?
He hesitated and went, but not long after, news came that the prisoners were rioting outside the city.
Huangfu Jin looked like he didn't want to pay attention, but Su Mo held his arm and said, "Brother Jin, let's go see the excitement."
This Deng Yongzhong seemed to have not yet learned his lesson and wanted to play tricks with her, so she would play with him.
She first sent Liu Huo away, disguised herself, infiltrated into the group of prisoners, and inquired about the news. Sure enough, someone had incited them to come.
Their purpose is to improve food, accommodation conditions, status, etc.
Su Mo sneered, Deng Yongzhong made a good calculation. If so many people improve their conditions, they will get money. The court obviously allocates money every year. He is greedy and lacks people's hearts, but he continues to cause trouble and wants the prisoners to impose punishment on the court.
pressure.
Any other attempt to improve his status is probably due to his own tricks, trying to win people's hearts.
What status does the prisoner have? If the imperial court can give him a few places for assessment, and he can exempt those prisoners to a certain extent or obtain the status of common people, then he can better control those people.
At least it can be used to win over the bosses inside.
What a good idea!
Humph, I don't want him to get what he wants.
A group of people outside the city were making a lot of noise and refused to leave. They wanted someone from the court to give an explanation.
Someone shouted: "Some of us have been exiled for three years, and now it's been five years. Why aren't we allowed to go back?"
"That is, we are eating pig food and doing such heavy work, why don't we get better food?"
"We ask for better food and better conditions in the work sheds. It's too cold in winter!"
“It’s so hot in summer!”
"Stop drinking porridge, ask for food, eat!"
The people below were noisy and began to get excited again.
Su Mo stood behind the female wall and looked down. The situation in the crowd was clear at a glance. Several people were the leaders. Whatever they said, others would follow suit.
However, there were also some who seemed unwilling to come and stood there with a listless look. The people next to them would tug and pull them from time to time, making them shout together.
Su Mo turned around and smiled at Huangfu Jin: "Brother Jin, let's go out and talk to them."
Then she shouted to the back: "City Lord Deng, please take us down and talk to them face to face outside."
Deng Yongzhong was stunned for a moment, "Miss Su, those are some mobs who have killed people. It's very dangerous to go out."
The corners of Su Mo's lips curled up slightly into a faint smile, "City Lord Deng is afraid?"
Deng Yongzhong smiled awkwardly, "Miss Su is not afraid. I have nothing to be afraid of. I am thinking about the safety of the young lady and the prince."
