Chapter 1019 Protest
The people were in an extremely intense mood, and there were also many rascal figures among them. They were about to rush into the prefect's office when they were on the stance.
There are usually soldiers standing guard in front of the prefect's office. Due to the public opinion over the past two days, Xiong Qing was worried that there would be people who would jump out to cause trouble, so he sent additional staff in front of the prefect's office.
The soldiers on duty saw that some people tried their best and wanted to break through the defense line and rushed into the yamen. They were like facing a great enemy and guns to protect the gate.
The leading whistleman shouted with great strength: "Who dares to take another step forward? I shot him with one shot. Back back! Let me back back!"
Although these people were very excited, they didn't dare to really fight with the soldiers. In addition, when they saw this soldier, they were still somewhat afraid.
The key is that no one dares to stand out, and most of them just make a fuss with the mentality of not ruling the public.
After all, the lockdown is for everyone in Baoding Prefecture, not just for one person or a few people.
Therefore, dozens of people had already rushed up the steps in front of the etiquette door, but they were so scared that they retreated back.
Although they retreated, they only stepped down from the steps in front of Yimen and did not disperse. They still shouted to see the governor and demanded that the city be lift the order to be lifted.
While the two sides were in a stalemate, someone shouted: "Look, isn't that the prefect? He's going to come out, don't let him run away."
"Yes, it's the prefect."
"Quick, block, block."
For a moment, they all were closely united and surrounded the exit of the prefect's office.
Xiong Qing came out surrounded by a group of soldiers.
"I won't run."
Xiong Qing was very calm and not panicked.
"Unlock!"
"Unlock!"
"Unlock!"
I immediately exchanged for a loud shout, and the waves were higher than the waves, like a migrant worker collecting debts.
Xiong Qing glanced at the anxious and angry faces in front of her eyes and said slowly:
"I understand everyone's mood at this moment. My mood is just as bad, but have you ever thought about it? What if your child was robbed by the bandit..."
"Bad!" Someone immediately objected, "Our child was robbed by bandits, so the yamen wouldn't be so concerned?"
"That's right, isn't it because of Zhang Jingxiu's child? Is it because of Zhang Jingxiu's relationship with the emperor?"
"The whole mansion is helping to find the children, but can you also consider the feelings of us?"
"If the seal is not lifted, we will drink the northwest wind. If someone is going to die, will the prefect be responsible?"
“…”
Every person says one by one, the crowds of people are full of people, and they don’t give Xiong Qing a chance to speak at all.
"What do you want me to do?"
Xiong Qing shouted loudly, then knelt down in front of everyone.
"I am the prefect of Baoding Prefecture. My child was robbed by bandits in my Baoding territory. I have to take responsibility. You may be right. It is because it is Zhang Jingxiu's child that he has such a big move. On behalf of the officials of Baoding Prefecture, I would like to say sorry to you! Please forgive us, maybe it is a selfish time!"
The leading guard post added angrily to the people: "Do you know that the Lord of the Imperial Palace has not been home for six days? Do you know that the Lord of the Imperial Palace has not been lying in bed for six days?"
In this way, the people looked at each other and didn’t know what to do.
At this time, Liu Shouyou left secretly. Originally, he was just here to investigate the case, so it was not convenient to come forward with such disputes. He went to the guild hall where Zhang Jingxiu was located.
"Uncle Liu, is there any news?"
When Zhang Jingxiu saw Liu Shouyou coming in, he couldn't wait to rush up and ask.
Liu Shouyou shook his head and said with great concern: "I have something I want to discuss with you."
"Uncle Liu, please tell me."
"Your child is lost, the emperor is very worried."
"We know this."
"The magistrate of Baoding Prefecture has also done his best."
"..." Zhang Jingxiu was silent, as if he could feel what Liu Shouyou was going to say next.
"The six days after the lockdown of Baoding Prefecture caused complaints, and there have been many protests. At this moment, tens of thousands of people rushed to the prefect's office to protest and protest, demanding that the lockdown be lifted immediately. Prefect Xiong was forced to kneel down in public, so I was worried that this would be unfair to the officials of Baoding Prefecture and the people of Baoding Prefecture if this continues. I don't need to say much about my relationship with your Zhang family. I guess this is why the emperor sent me to investigate the case. Of course, I hope to find your child as soon as possible, but the officials and people of Baoding Prefecture can no longer bear it. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Uncle Liu means to ask Prefect Xiong to lift the seal of Baoding Prefecture immediately?"
"The child has not been found yet. At this time, I said, "You said, the prefect Xiong dared not nod, only you ask the emperor to issue an order."
"Can't we find our child? Don't you need to find it?" Qin Hanqian's tears seemed to have already dried up, and now she didn't have a single tear, as if it was calm and dull.
"No, I will continue to stay in Baoding Prefecture to investigate, but I just request the emperor to issue an order to lift the seal of Baoding Prefecture. Otherwise, I am worried that there will be a big mess. I believe this is not the result you want to see."
"..." Zhang Jingxiu glanced at Qin Hanqian.
"..." Qin Hanqian tried her best to hold back her tears.
"Even if Baoding Mansion is lifted, the case will not end. No matter what, we will find those bandits." Liu Shouyou said gritting his teeth.
"Let the boss issue an order to unblock it?" Zhang Jingxiu took Qin Hanqian into her arms, in a tone of consultation.
"My child, pity my child..." Qin Hanqian nodded and murmured. After all, she couldn't help but pounce on Zhang Jingxiu's arms and burst into tears.

...
Wanping County is full of gongs and drums and firecrackers today, which is even more exciting than celebrating the New Year.
There is nothing, just because the people must celebrate and remember this great day.
It's time to divide the land.
And everyone has a share.
It's really a serf who turns over and sings.
The cabinet minister Wang Jiaping arrived at Wanping County Government early. According to Zhu Yiliu's wish, he drew a doctor from the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War to supervise the inspection.
With Wang Jiaping's high position, it can be seen that the court attaches great importance to this work.
The son-in-law Yan Yongfan, the county magistrate Xu Bingzheng, and the county magistrate Wu Shanyan all got up before dawn.
To be precise, they didn't sleep all night last night.
Excited and nervous.
They were very happy to see the people singing and dancing happily.
However, if you are happy, there will naturally be unhappy. Those powerful and powerful families, or those who exceed the average amount of land, are full of fire and feel that they will jump up and fight with others anytime and anywhere.
So they were also nervous, afraid that someone would still jump out to cause trouble during the process of dividing the fields.
As for how to divide the fields, Zhu Yiliu has already given instructions and reached an agreement with Wanping County officials: According to the area where he is located, Wanping County will be divided into several townships, and then the township will be divided into several villages, and then one village will be divided into one village.
Whoever has the best land and whoever has the lowest land, decides by drawing lots, and gets whatever you get. If you draw the lowest land, go to the court to collect sweet potatoes and potato species, it is considered compensation.
This method is fair, so ordinary people have no complaints.
After all, having is better than not, and will it be better to be disrupted and divided in the future?
...
...
The first day of Wanping County's land distribution is the seventh day after Zhang Jinyong was stolen.
One in front and the other behind, there were two Jinyiwei, who rushed to Beijing to meet with him from Baoding Prefecture.
Of course, it was all arranged by Liu Shouyou.
And it was deliberately arranged. Originally, only a Jinyiwei needed to return to Beijing to send a message, but he was determined to divide it into two waves to convey the message to Zhu Yiliu.
"Report—"
The first Jinyiwei sent back by Liu Shouyou met Zhu Yiliu under the leadership of Feng Bao.
