Chapter 400 Turmoil!
Chapter 400 Chaos!
"Well, hurry up and get this matter done! Please trouble Brother Zhou!"
Since we have already said this, it is not appropriate to do it later. The sooner it will be beneficial to them to deal with the King of Yan.
After Zhou Hong said goodbye, these people continued to eat mutton.
For Shi Xun, making money from disaster is actually only temporary, and the real big deal is still about producing grain every year.
As long as the reform of the King of Yan fails and everything is restored to the original system, the fertile land will be returned to their hands. At that time, they can continue to ask those cheap people to sell their labor for them.
Life is done by the people, and money is earned by Shi Xun and others.
It is the real money-making business.
So if the King of Yan is not eliminated, it will be impossible for them to return to the past.
In fact, Wu Zhi’s reforms hit these officials and businessmen.
They cannot watch their interests be deprived and they can only resist. Resistance is to die.
But can they resist?
Wu Zhi is not an ordinary person.
He is the head of Yan Yun and the person Song Huizong trusted the most.
The reforms were unable to be moved many times before, and they could not be implemented. Now Song Huizong is unwilling to reform, but after the King of Yan came up, Song Huizong supported him to do so.
From this point of view, we can know the weight of the King of Yan.
Wu Zhi has arrived here at this moment.
The magistrate and the others would naturally ask Wu Zhi whether he would go to see the Duke of Wei here.
Wu Zhi shook his head, and there was no need for this.
Although Duke Wei was a hereditary duke, Wu Zhi was most concerned about the issue of the victims now, and whether his new law could go smoothly.
If there is a rebellion in Yanyun area this time, some people will always point their finger at him.
It will be unfavorable to him then.
For example, it is said that there will be snow disasters after the reform of the King of Yan. This is a sign of heaven. Some people may say that the King of Yan’s reform of the King of Yan or that this kind of disaster situation occurred. The problem of food shortage is no different from before. So what should the reform do?
Therefore, Wu Zhi needs to stabilize the situation during this period.
As long as these are stable and developed in the future, he can continue to implement all his reform plans on the land of the Song Dynasty throughout the Song Dynasty.
Wu Zhi was not aware of Shi Xun and his plan.
But there is a good news, that is, the heavy snow seems to have signs of stopping.
Wu Zhi looked at the snowy outside today and the weather was cold, but the snowflakes were no longer falling.
This is a good sign.
However, just when Wu Zhi was happy, someone came to report: "King Yan, it's not good! The treasury of Jinfu caught fire!"
"What?" Wu Zhi frowned: "Don't you let someone guard the official warehouse well? Why is it still burning!"
At this moment, the raging fire was already burning the official warehouse.
This happened before dawn. When dawn, I may have burned half of the news when I heard the news.
Wu Zhi knew that the matter was serious and did not dare to delay it. He immediately ordered nearby prefectures and counties to mobilize food quickly. The official warehouse is the guarantee here. Once the food is gone, it is a very dangerous thing.
The emotions of the people in the city must also be stable, and the fire must be calmed immediately.
After Wu Zhi arranged everything, he looked in the direction of the Guancang and narrowed his eyes slightly: "It is obviously someone targeting me. Now tens of thousands of victims are in need of food, but this kind of thing suddenly happens. Could it be the Duke of Wei?"
Although Wu Zhi was just a guess, the most likely one was their group.
Wu Zhi also understood that he wanted to suppress this group of people, and they were also thinking about how to resist him.
The momentum is the same as water and fire!
There will inevitably be a struggle.
Now they have started to do anything.
The news that the fire burned the grain in the official warehouse was immediately passed on to the entire Tianjin Prefecture, and the people in the city were in a state of great trouble.
The news was not so fast, but it spread surprisingly rapidly. It was obvious that someone deliberately fanned the flames.
Let the people turmoil.
Many people are talking about it.
They are all hungry and starve to death. You must know that there are many people in this city.
However, Wu Zhi received a more surprising news, that is, there was no drop of food in the warehouse.
Obviously, someone transported the food away. With the help of this incident, everyone not only took away the food inside, but also threw the blame on the fire.
In addition, Wu Zhi took over this mess.
How to deal with the victims?
Where did the food go?
Moreover, the news of lack of food was also known to the people of Tianjin.
Everyone was discussing this matter, and some people thought that the food would definitely not be transferred by the King of Yan.
"There is no need for the King of Yan to do this. He killed the merchants who raised the price of grain indiscriminately, hoping that our people would have food and not starve to death. Such a good King of Yan would not do such a thing!"
"It must be someone else!"
Some people in the crowd began to fan the flames.
Some people said, "The King of Yan is indeed a good official, but is it possible that it was made by his subordinates?"
"Everyone knows that this person's heart is unpredictable! The subordinates of the King of Yan are not allowed to be jealous of the batch of grain, so they secretly transfer to embezzle them. Perhaps they were afraid that the matter would be exposed, so they set fires to destroy everything. In this way, the food is gone and the fire will burn, so that they can deceive the King of Yan!"
"It's a pity that the news leaked and it was discovered!"
Hearing this, some people cursed angrily: "The King of Yan is the master of Qingtian, but he was plotted against by a villain. It's so hateful!"
"These villains did this and framed the King of Yan and left us all without food in the future!"
"Will we all starve to death without food?"
Many people began to panic.
Once the people panic, things are prone to happen.
Fortunately, Wu Zhi responded quickly.
At this critical moment, Wu Zhi asked someone to make porridge and distributed it again at this moment.
When the people saw porridge eating, their emotions calmed down a lot!
However, someone was still making trouble at the scene. One of them held the bowl in his hand and suddenly shouted: "There is too little porridge, there is no rice in it. Compared with the past, this is water. It must be the work of your subordinates of King Yan. Come and take a look!"
With this shout, the people behind actually couldn't see the front because there were too many people.
No one can really come to see the bowl in his hand.
But people said this, and recently some people spread the corruption of King Yan and joined forces, which made many people present think that the porridge has really turned into water.
The uneasy mood came up again.
At this moment, the person who was giving the porridge felt something was wrong. The people all followed the crowd. This person suddenly came and asked one of the men in charge to come over.
"The King of Yan has rules. The standard for serving porridge must be able to stand up the chopsticks. Take the bowl in your hand and I'll take a look!"
The man in charge came and wanted to take away the bowl from his hand, but the man refused to give it to him. Instead, he shouted: "You guys obviously want to embezzle food and make bad things here, so I don't want this porridge anymore. We want to find the King of Yan and let him judge!"
In the hearts of the people, the King of Yan gave food, but in this situation, many people are unwilling to do so.
What they hate the most is corrupt officials.
They only believe in King Yan.
The man actually smashed the bowl in his hand directly to the ground, and the porridge in the bowl and the bowl were smashed directly.
The man in charge changed his expression: "Come on, arrest this troublemaker!"
"Not good! The officials are going to kill people, they are going to kill people!" I don't know who shouted, and the people behind them were panicked.
Many people dare not do so random things. They are just panic but don’t do anything.
However, some trouble-provoking people were hidden in the crowd. One of them actually took out a dagger and pointed it at one of the officials and stabbed it.
As soon as the man hid, even so, a hole was cut on his arm, and blood suddenly appeared and dyed his clothes red.
"Let's go find the King of Yan and ask the King of Yan to judge us!"
Then the man shouted and rushed forward with his head. There were also people behind him who were crowded, leading a group of followers to rush towards the place where King Yan was.
For a moment, tens of thousands of people surged.
The entire Tianjin Mansion was in chaos in an instant.
The turmoil of tens of thousands of people was extremely scary, with densely packed disaster victims running around on the streets and coming quickly.
