Chapter 243: Let you cover the lid, the crowd will be excited, and the demon queen will cause chaos in the country!
The Duke's Mansion of Weiguo.
Li Yan stood in the garden, closing his eyes and sniffing gently with his nose: "Tonight's wind smells of azaleas, and tonight's dish smells of sweet rice porridge."
He nodded and said: "Well done, drink more porridge and save some rice!"
Xu Da, the leader of the veterans in the house, came over and was full of surprise: "Young man can even smell the smell of the kitchen?"
Li Yan smiled...
Nasal awareness is achieved.
Not only can it distinguish various smells, but it can also further track enemies.
The five senses of Weishijin are strengthened and one's own potential is tapped. The deeper you go, the more wonderful it becomes.
Li Yan asked: "What is the situation of associations in Beijing?"
Xu Da sighed: "The situation is worrying. The largest association in the capital is supported by Webster. Those gangsters usually live with Webster's money. Naturally, they stick to the news at critical moments."
Li Yan was not surprised: "Sure enough, it was the joint efforts of the government and the people that blocked the news of the serious disaster. However, every time more dogs are slaughtered in a righteous way, loyalty is the first priority in Jianghuzi. There must be someone who is willing to come forward and tell the truth to the public.
."
Xu Da frowned: "Of course there is, but it's just a drop in the bucket. Chang'an is so big, with more than a hundred towns, how many places can they spread it? The key is that there are other rumors in the town. It's hard to tell whether they are true or false.
!”
Li Yandao: "First gather those who are willing to announce the disaster in the pass and tell them that as long as they wait for two days, a good opportunity will come!"
Xu Da accepted the order: "Yes!"
After he stepped back, Mrs. Shu Sanniang and Mrs. Wu also came over and said respectfully: "Little Lang!"
Li Yan looked at the two ladies who acted as scary ghosts in Wu Minzhi's case: "You two have been staying in the house for two years, right?"
The two girls said: "Fortunately, the young man protected me, otherwise our sisters would have been buried in Duke Zhou's mansion."
Li Yan said: "You all know that a lady is talented and knowledgeable, and she also needs some money to save up. If you want to stay at home, you can stay there. If you want to go outside, there are arrangements, but you can't just choose the place. How about going to Jiangnan?"
Madam Shu Sanni's expression did not change, but Madam Wu's eyes lit up and she said cautiously: "Can I really go to Jiangnan?"
Li Yan said: "The living environment in the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River is quite good. If you want to live there, you can feel more comfortable."
Mrs. Wu couldn't help but be happy: "Thank you so much, Xiao Lang!"
Mrs. Shu Sanniang said: "I have no other wish. I hope Xiaolang will continue to take her in. She will be in the palace of Duke Wei, where she will feel most at ease."
Li Yan nodded: "Okay, Mrs. Wu, you can prepare during this period. When the officials go to Luoyang, you can leave."
After Mrs. Wu thanked her and left, Li Yan looked at Mrs. Shu Sanni. Since this woman is willing to stay, she is one of his own. There are some things you can ask: "Where is the place where news in Pingkangfang circulates the most?"
Madam Shu San thought for a while and said, "It depends on what kind of news it is. If it is an official matter, Nanqu knows that Madam's courtyard is the easiest place to spread. If it is a gathering of wealthy businessmen, most banquets will be held in Zhongqu. If it is a private matter,
, that is the place of Beiqu, where many people from the Jianghu market gather."
Li Yan said in a deep voice: "What if there is a disaster in Guanzhong?"
Mrs. Shu Sanni asked carefully, covering her mouth involuntarily, her eyes turning red: "Has the disaster reached this level again?"
Li Yan looked at her: "Could it be..."
Mrs. Shu San said sadly: "More than ten years ago, during the Great Disaster in Guanzhong, my family had more than ten acres of farmland. In order to survive, Aye sold the land and also sold me... I don't hate Aye, a lot of
No one richer than my family can survive, he really tried his best..."
Li Yan sighed: "They are all miserable people!"
Just as Eunuch Gao felt uncomfortable when he saw the scene of selling sons and daughters in Lanzhou, because that was how he entered the palace, Mrs. Shu Sanniang was also obviously very concerned about the disaster: "Xiao Lang, is the disaster serious this time?"
Li Yan said: "It's very serious. This disaster is mostly caused by human beings. If it continues like this, I don't know how many people will die in Guanzhong, but the city of Chang'an is not aware of it. Someone deliberately blocked the news."
Mrs. Shu Sanniang clenched her hands, and while she was filled with resentment, she did not lose her cool: "Those who can block this kind of thing will definitely think of Pingkangfang. I am afraid that it is useless to spread the news in Pingkangfang."
Li Yan smiled coldly: "It doesn't matter, I just want the other party to waste their manpower there."
…
Wei Mansion.
Wei Chengqing listened to the secret report from his subordinates and sighed: "The disaster in Guan has become more serious. Our family's industry has been hit hard, and the price of food in Chang'an can hardly be suppressed!"
Wei Zhenxuan thought about what Fufeng County, which he worked hard to run, had become like now, and his face changed slightly: "Didn't Fourth Uncle's food arrive?"
This fourth uncle refers to Wei Daijie, the governor of Liangzhou. They are of the same clan and have different families, but at this juncture of running for the queen, they must be united.
Wei Chengqing said: "It is difficult for him to handle it. A large number of disaster victims have poured into Longyou and they have to provide food. The Tang army on the Tuyuhun side is urging for food and grass. Liangzhou has been extremely delayed. If this continues, it will not end well. We can only start from
I bought it from Jiangnan merchants, but fortunately the Xiao Chamber of Commerce cooperated..."
Wei Zhenxuan whispered: "Why don't we stop and put disaster relief first? The pass is where our clan is!"
Wei Chengqing also regretted in his heart, but he couldn't get off: "The more we get to this point, the less we can repeat it. My family is not the only one who has been damaged in the customs. Without the support of the queen, how will we compete with the Li family and the Yang family in the future? It will be difficult for us to enter the center."
Got it!"
Wei Zhenxuan fell silent.
Wei Chengqing's tone softened slightly: "Now we want to provide disaster relief, but where does the food come from? The granaries in various places have released what they can, and the rest is hoarding by wealthy businessmen, and behind those people are... hum!"
He shook his head and suddenly asked: "Have you recently intended to betroth your daughter to the King of Zhou?"
Wei Zhenxuan nodded: "The King of Zhou is about to get married, and he is indeed looking for a noble daughter. My daughter is so beautiful and fragrant, why can't she enter the palace?"
Wei Chengqing waved his hand: "I, the Wei family, are not the Dou family. I only want to ascend the throne as a foreign relative. There are advantages and disadvantages in joining the palace, so I'd better wait..."
Just as he was talking, another subordinate came into the hall to report.
Wei Chengqing's face darkened: "Someone is spreading news about the disaster in Pingkangfang? It's such a troubled time. Can't those thieves who are afraid of chaos in Chang'an just stop and calm down?"
He first ordered his men: "Go to the market quickly and tell them that this is a lie made by rice merchants to raise food prices. There will be people who think they have seen through the truth and take the initiative to cover it up for us."
He looked at Wei Zhenxuan again: "You are in charge of Wannian County. Go and keep an eye on it yourself. Those who spread the news must be captured and put in jail. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
Wei Zhenxuan has been transferred to Wannian County as a county captain, and Pingkangfang is indeed under his jurisdiction. He stood up resolutely: "Yes!"
Just as he walked out, another news came: "Li Jingxuan is asking everyone to kill him in the West City? Why did the Meihua inner guards handle such a major treason event so hastily?"
Thinking of Li Jingxuan's past glory and what he had done at home, Wei Zhenxuan felt guilty and couldn't avoid it: "I won't join in the fun any longer. I'll go to Pingkangfang quickly and block the news!"
…
In ancient times when entertainment was scarce, every visit to the downtown area was a grand event.
Even though the preparations this time were very hasty, when they heard that the person who was killed was the former prime minister, the people of Chang'an gathered frantically towards the Western Market.
There were crowds of people, and everyone was paying attention.
Qiu Shenji came to check in on time.
Seeing Li Jingxuan loaded in the prison car and being pushed over like a mourner, and then recalling that after Cui Shouye was beheaded, he and Liu Lang went to Cui Mansion for a good meal, Qiu Shenji couldn't help but shook his head: "This time there is no place to eat.
None!"
This serious crime of treason cannot be forgiven even if the world is amnesty, because the first unforgivable evil is treason, and the body must have been left unchecked. If someone had committed the crime, he would have been trampled to pieces by the angry people on the spot.
Look at the angry stares at Li Jingxuan, it seems that this is the trend.
However, when Li Jingxuan's family was neatly escorted to the temporarily built high platform and all knelt down, a group of people suddenly rushed out.
The Meihua guards who were executing the execution showed vigilance, but the group of people did not come towards the execution platform at all. Instead, they stood around and started shouting.
"Is there anyone from Huazhou? I'm from Huayin County!" "I'm from Shangluo County, Shangzhou!" "I'm from Pengyuan, Ningzhou!" "I'm from Hue!"
The accent in Guan Nei is already strong, but the onlookers quickly recognized the dialect of their hometown and responded one after another.
"Don't be deceived by the traitors in Chang'an. The disaster in the customs is particularly serious this time. There are dead people everywhere!"
"It's five hundred coins per dou of rice in the county, but you can't buy it at all. You can only chew tree bark and eat Guanyin soil!"
"The Demon Queen has brought chaos to the country and deceived Shengting! The Demon Queen has brought chaos to the country and deceived Shengting!!"
Although they had made arrangements in advance, when things came to pass, these rangers, who had witnessed the horrors of the outside world, still shouted out their own opinions due to emotional excitement.
But even though their voices were intertwined together, they seemed very messy, and the onlookers were stunned.
Some people who disliked the price of rice in Chang'an even sent letters to the countryside, hoping to get some cheap rice. They couldn't believe their ears!
The rice in my hometown costs five hundred cents per dou?
"Tell everyone, tell them the truth about the disaster in the pass, and the government must open warehouses to release grain!"
"Let's go! Let's go!!"
Seeing that the crowd watching the execution dispersed and rushed to the alleys extending in all directions, the Meihua guards who carried out the execution only stopped them for a moment and then gave up.
This is obviously unstoppable.
Li Yan was hidden in the crowd, his eyes falling on Li Jingxuan.
Dealing with this former prime minister has two purposes.
The first is to let the Meihua inner guards come to the stage to intimidate the officials and enhance the authority of Li Zhi, who is seriously ill.
The second is to take advantage of the execution opportunity to lift the lid and let the people of Chang'an know what the outside world is like!
Now, Li Jingxuan's mission is completed.
Let me give you a ride!
As the crowd was excited and the venue was in chaos, Li Yan popped a stone and hit Li Jingxuan in the throat.
Killed with one blow.
The executioner at the rear did not know that his job was being robbed, so he swung his knife and chopped off the head of the corpse.
