Someone shouted. The beggars on the street helped each other to their feet and smashed the broken bowl in their hands!
Fusao was completely panicked. He usually didn't care about the affairs of the country. He only cared about enjoying himself and paid no attention to the people.
The high taxes and corvee tortured many people to death.
This is true for Gusu City, the capital of the Baiyue Kingdom, let alone other places.
If the merchant army had not entered the city and started distributing relief, more people would have starved to death.
"This beast, let's kill him!"
The anger accumulated in the hearts of the people completely exploded, and they picked up the sticks at hand and rushed forward with a roar.
All of a sudden, rags, bowls, sticks and stones were all thrown at the husband.
A large number of scars quickly appeared on his already fat and old body.
"I am your king, how can you be so rude!"
No matter how hard the husband yelled, it was of no avail. The number of things hitting him increased instead of decreasing!
If the prison van hadn't blocked part of him, he might have been beaten to death long ago!
When Zhao Rui led the army to arrive here, he was quite shocked.
It seemed that Jing Cui could not expect that Jing Cui could be so fast. Not only did he capture Gusu, but even the King of Baiyue was pushed to the streets!
"Where is the Duke of Yue?"
The merchants who were distributing relief grains not far away hurried over.
"Your Highness, the Duke is in the palace!"
Zhao Rui didn't want to stay here any longer, so he immediately entered the palace.
"King Zhao!" Fu Lu seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw: "I am willing to surrender. Considering that I was once the king of Baiyue, I can give you any official title!"
Zhao Rui frowned slightly, this King of Baiyue was so shameless, he actually asked for an official position on the street.
After all, he is the king of a country, but he has no integrity at all.
"King of Baiyue, with your virtues, how can you be an official in the Great Shang Dynasty? Even if you are exiled to the frontier, I have to think carefully about it! First think carefully about what you are good at here. I, the Great Shang Dynasty, do not want to be a drunkard!
"
King Baiyue's pupils trembled. He never thought that one day he would be regarded as a loser.
By the time he reacted, Zhao Rui had already walked away.
The Gusu Palace was indeed too splendid. Zhao Rui frowned as soon as he entered the palace gate. Although the scale of this water royal city was not that of Luo City, the specifications of some places far exceeded Luo City.
There are hundreds of gems inlaid on one pillar, each one is priceless.
"Your Highness, you are here!" Jing Cui hurriedly greeted him, but there was obvious sadness on his face.
"The Duke of Yue is really fast. I chased him all the way and couldn't catch up!" Zhao Rui praised him and saw the crying palace maid in the hall next to him: "What's going on?"
Jing Cui's eyes were full of helplessness.
"These palace ladies thought that I was going to execute King Baiyue and drag them to be buried with me, so they came over and cried!"
Zhao Rui laughed loudly: "Every king in a vassal state will have some beauties. Just give them money to let them out of the palace. It's not that troublesome!"
"I gave it to the general!" Jing Cui said with helplessness on her face: "But they don't want to leave. They said they have been away from home for many years and their parents have died long ago, so there is no point in going back."
