The year ends in the Empire 307, the future empress of the Empire, the dragon warrior with three golden dragons, and Princess Ruyue, vigorously promotes the new policy
The implementation of the new policy injected fresh blood into the declining empire, and for a time the whole country was full of prosperity and vitality.
However, at the end of the year, the riots in Leto Province cast a gray shadow on this prosperity.
As I was transferred by the emperor to deal with this matter, the closer I got to the lower class during the investigation, the more I felt that many of Ruyue’s policies were too ideal. After the glitz, all the remaining sad things in the world were all sad.
After finishing the bath in the hotel's luxurious bathroom, the poor noble brothers sent someone to send two invitations and asked Brigitte and I to go to their house for a banquet.
There is no good banquet, I guess it is that this banquet must be related to bribery and pleading.
I took the invitation with a smile and asked Brigitte: Auntie, will you go tonight?
Brigitte shook his head gently and refused
According to my opinion, Prince Odd's son included all the rooms on the top floor, and of course the cost was paid by these suckers.
Since staying in this luxurious hotel, Brigitte has been depressed. When she learned that one night would cost ten gold coins, her face turned even more ugly
She snorted softly: Ten gold coins? It's enough for an ordinary family to live in a month!
My flattery was wrong, and Brigitte was in a bad mood. At this time, handing over two invitations to treat her to dinner was not helpful to the fire and make her even more unhappy
I'm cursing in my heart
I'm going to the banquet, and I'll go to your big-headed banquet! Two fools can't even look at the face and check the colors. How can I entertain my aunt with delicacies at this time? It's going to be a waste of my "night snack" in the evening!
On the surface, I was still calm and turned my inquiring eyes to Bi Ji
It's still early, what are we doing that night?
Brigitte sighed lightly and whispered:
Let's go to the city with me, I want to see what's going on in the city again...
Brigitte walked slowly in front of me, and I followed closely like a little follower
We left the rich residential area, which was heavily guarded by the army, and entered the crowded and dirty slums again
I have no objection to Brigitte's move. The destruction of the Black Hawk Knights Division has completely cut off my intelligence source. From tomorrow on, I will inevitably deal with the high-ranking officials and nobles in the city. Now I don't go out to collect information. As an outsider, I am unfamiliar with people and places, and I will inevitably be fooled by them at that time.
Before leaving, I learned from the waiter in the hotel that such a huge number of hungry people poured in, and the security situation in the city deteriorated rapidly.
In the past half month, small-scale riots have occurred almost every day, and there are countless criminal cases such as robbery and theft.
In order to cope with the worsening governance situation, the two Kane brothers who handled political affairs on behalf of their father had to use the army to divide the land and implement military control, and completely isolate the refugee and wealthy areas.
His words were immediately confirmed. From the hotel where we lived to the Central Plaza, only a few thousand steps away, Brigitte and I encountered several robberies against us.
Even though I took action again and again to repel the robbers, the fearless people still kept patronizing us
When he came out of the hotel, Brigitte ordered some pastries and distributed them to the begging children along the way. Unexpectedly, as soon as the things were taken out, they were immediately surrounded by countless pairs of dirty little hands. They were all extremely pitiful children, all of whom were thin and lonely, wearing shabby clothes, nearly a hundred dirty and dirty hands, holding up their frostbite hands, shouting, "Uncle, Auntie, please give me some food!"
In front of them, the Dragon Warrior's martial arts were of no use at all
In the chaos, the pastries brought by Brigitte were stolen in the blink of an eye. In the end, Brigitte and I squeezed out of the crowd and almost ran away in a panic.
When we stopped, we were amused and crying to find that our wallet had disappeared in the previous chaos.
Huh! It's so scary! Fortunately, I have the foresight and put away all the important things...
I wiping the cold sweat on my forehead and complained, but I heard that Brigitte's eyes were wrong and quickly closed my mouth
Brigitte looked at everything around him sadly, shook his head and sighed: It's been three hundred years, but unexpectedly, everything will return to the starting point after three hundred years, Hi!
The entire Danding City has become a huge refugee camp. Today, the cold land is frozen, and the hungry and cold poor people wrapped everything they could wear on their bodies, including tattered quilts, linens, and even sacks of food. As long as they can keep the cold winter, they will pack them on their bodies without any worries, squeeze them into a ball, and rely on each other to obtain warmth.
They braved the cold and came to Danding just to get the bowl of thin porridge that they don't give a day
A person who is like a maggot, a life like a maggot, this is the true face of the life of the lowest-level civilians in the empire
In sharp contrast, there is a wealthy area in another corner of the city, where the singing and dancing life is still there, the wine pool and the meat forest, and the drunkenness and dreams of death
Brigitte sighed for this. Three hundred years ago, when the demons ruled this land, most of the human life was like what you saw before you, struggling in the mud and ditches until the Dragon Warrior appeared... But only three hundred years have passed, Daxiu, look at it, everything in front of you seems to have returned to the time of the demon rule...
There is an old saying that Feng Shui turns around... No, it should be said that the world is round! After walking around, I returned to the starting point. This is normal! Auntie, we...
Brigitte interrupted me, with accusation in her tone
We are different from others! We are dragon warriors. The Ten Sages sacrificed themselves to create us! Enjoy the strength, power and wealth they give, should we do something?
I feel ashamed and recall my past actions. I don’t think my behavior deserves it. Dragon Warrior This title that was once regarded as a synonym for savior by countless people.
Just like what I said to Jagli at the beginning, millions of people struggled for the same goal and even sacrificed themselves. When the final goal was reached, only a few people could truly taste the taste of the fruits of victory.
Although I look down on the aristocrats of the Far family and think they are waste, to be fair, what I have done over the years is not much better than them. Besides being forced to do some good things, the lawless me in the past can be regarded as a disaster in Fengdu City.
I bowed my head and confessed to Brigitte: Auntie, I know what you want to say... I honestly admit that I am not a good person!
But Brigitte blamed herself: Actually, I have never done anything for our people in the past few decades? Judging by the standards of responsibility and obligations, what have I done for them?
I felt something bad. What happened to my aunt? I suddenly felt so many feelings?
However, this is what is called a person's death, and his words are good?
As he spoke, Brigitte suddenly apologized to me: Sorry, Daxiu, I ruined your plan!
My plan? Where do I have any plans?
I touched the back of my head and couldn't figure out why my pretty aunt apologized to me.
I know that your original intention is to keep your identity hidden, and you are hiding in the dark and watching coldly, so you changed your plan. This time, Xiao Ao asked you to deal with this matter, which is really weird! You are afraid that there will be another conspiracy behind you, so doing this is the safest way, but because of me...
I touched my head and shook my head to comfort Brigitte: Where, Auntie did nothing wrong! In the current situation, people starve to death every day. If I hide in the dark again, I will be really not a human being! Although the situation this time is a bit strange, we should act carefully and we should be able to spend it safely! After these few days, when the young guards arrive, all the initiative will be in our hands!
I have another thought in my mind
Ask yourself, if I hadn't met Brigitte this time, I was concerned about her opinion and in order to please her, no matter how many people starved to death, I really wouldn't want to show up in advance
Whether it is disaster relief or anti-corruption, is there really no one in the empire?
No one should look for me, a murderer who only knows how to kill people. The dog emperor is either having a nerve problem or has ulterior motives.
The central square in Danding City is the area where refugees gather the most. The refugees here spontaneously organized and established a security team to maintain public security. The public security situation is relatively good.
There were piles of fires in the east and west of the square. There were people who were roasting fires to keep warm, including men and women, old and young. The jumping fire reflected the numb and confused faces.
Although the future is dark, in the martial empire, ordinary people are definitely not the kind of lambs waiting to die. If they are forced to go to the fore, they will stand up and resist.
Even if the opponent is a dragon warrior who is similar to the existence of a god
Brigitte and I found an empty seat and just sat down, we immediately heard the outbreak of roar.
Damn, this life is impossible! Look at this thing, if you don’t eat pigs, just give us this one? If you knew it, you wouldn’t come in and go directly to Wallace…
The person who spoke was a young man, very tall, wearing an old cotton jacket, carrying a grain bag in his left hand, and was angrily sprinkling a handful of rice on the ground.
You're crazy, what are you talking nonsense!
As soon as she finished speaking, she was immediately stopped by a young woman next to her. She snatched the rice bag with one hand, squatted down, and carefully pulled the rice that had fallen all over the floor back into the bag, looking like her wife
Throw the food, what will our children eat tomorrow?
Mold turned into this! This thing is mud, can it be eaten?
The man snatched the rice bag and wanted to throw it into the fire, but was pulled tightly by the others next to him.
Wright, don't do anything randomly! After burning him, what will your family eat tomorrow?
Can this thing be eaten? How many people have diarrhea these days? It’s all this harmful thing!
But it’s not OK to eat! We are stuck here and can’t walk...
Damn it, I would have been rebellious if I had known that I would have died! I will die all the time. Since I won’t let me live, I won’t let them live a better life!
There are more than a dozen people sitting around the fire. Except for those who shout, wipe away tears, and dissuade, most of them are silent and cold-eyed bystanders.
The orange fire illuminates every silent face. Under the swaying light, each pair of eyes flashes with sharp cold light.
If you don't die in silence, you will explode in silence. Since you are waiting to die, why not stand up and resist? Perhaps there is still a glimmer of vitality... I smelled it. This is a city that is about to erupt.
Taking advantage of the chaos, I quietly squeezed in and picked up a few grains of rice that fell on the ground.
Follow me and Brigitte took a piece from my hand. When he squeezed his index finger and thumb, the rice grains were broken into powder.
She whispered in my ear: This is the aged grain that has been stored for at least four or five years, and it should have been abandoned for a long time!
I nodded, gently retracted my palms, and with a little force, I pinched the remaining rice into powder
Then he pulled a dark corner and sat down as the listener
When the Wright's man calmed down, the others began to whisper.
I heard that the inspector sent by His Majesty has arrived at Danding, we can...
Lick, do you still remember the inspector Wayne? It was the last time that everyone had seen it? When he first came, he said so nicely, saying that he was ordered by His Majesty to investigate the people's sentiments and listen to the people's voices! What happened? The fat pig prince golden woman smashed her and immediately changed her face...
Then everyone can also raise some money like last time, send people to Fengdu and go to the wall...
Wayne, that guy, was just what we said that we had written on the wall and said that we had finally fed this evil dog, and then we had to change to a hungry tiger?
I listened aside for a long time, but I didn't get any valuable information
What these civilians around them complained was similar to what they heard in Wallace in the afternoon. The only thing that was confirmed was that Prince Ode's two sons were not good birds. They opened the warehouse and put out grain to help the victims. They all used them to help the victims with almost inedible rice noodles.
While I was listening quietly, Brigitte stood up and went to find the previous couple to find out the information.
The young man named Wright built a shack nearby with thatch, cardboard and dead branches. He had just become a father, and there was a cry of a baby in the shack.
When I approached, the man was squatting on the ground outside the shack, holding his chin with his hands in a daze
With the faint fire coming from nearby, I saw Brigitte and his wife huddled in the shack, each holding a baby in their arms.
Don’t have milk? Look at the child’s weight loss like this!
Even adults are not full, so there is no enough milk... These two children have been hungry for many days and have no strength to cry...
Seeing this, Brigitte untied her clothes without hesitation, took out her nipples and fed the child in her arms.
That baby, give me a hug too!
The hungry baby smelled the frankincense and instinctively opened his mouth, one by one, held his nipples and sucked it hard, and the crying stopped immediately, and the sound of sizzling came from the darkness.
Good women and bad women are different! They are both women, why is Ruyue the woman...
I resented Ruyue's selfishness again. At this moment, the young man squatting outside suddenly grabbed my hand and thanked me with gratitude: Is she your wife? Thank you so much! The food you distributed cannot be eaten at all...
The other party's sudden action scared me. The aunt was mistaken for my wife, which was even more awful mistake. I quickly waved my hand and said:
No, she is mine...my sister! We are here to join relatives!
Go to your relatives? No wonder, your accent doesn't look like a local
Hi, the world is not good now. I used to be a business dealer in private wine, but I was not lucky and was caught by the "Black Skin Dog" (Black Hawk Knights). Not only did I lose all my capital, but I also had to hide in Danding to join my relatives! Unexpectedly, it was even more uneasy here. My uncle was gambled and lost all his property. Now I don’t know where to hide from debts. What’s worse is that there is still a famine here...
I made up a few lies and made up excuses, and found that each other was bankrupt, and the same experience resonated with me. The other party quickly started to talk to me enthusiastically
I am raising foxes and make a living by selling fur. My original life is quite good! Who knows that this year I am so excited that I have implemented new policies, saying that fur is a strategic material, and it is purchased and sold in a unified manner, and private individuals are not allowed to buy and sell at will!
A good leather...
The man said to unbutton the collar of the clothes, revealing the fur underwear inside
It’s just such a piece. It used to have twenty gold coins, but this year it was crushed to only three gold coins! Is it still alive if I can’t even collect the feed money?
Three gold coins? Isn’t it too exaggerated? On Fengdu, this piece is worth at least thirty or forty gold coins! By the way, this thing is not very heavy. You can ship it to other places like I sell private wine, and the profit is very generous!
Haha... I think so too! But luck is as bad as you. I was found by those bad guys on the road... I didn't say that I lost all the things, but I also got in! In order to save me, there was nothing at home...
It’s understandable that I have lived in this damn place for a while, and I can’t even make up for the money if I invested in it!
Yes, yes, it's a vampire cave! Moreover, this loan method was implemented this year, and I thought I could save some interest, but who knew...
As soon as I heard this, I immediately realized that this person was a victim of the standard new policy: he went bankrupt because he used the new policy to make money from local officials, so he was so depressed that even his house was confiscated for sheltering the wind and rain, and eventually became a refugee with nothing.
Wright shook his head with a bitter face and sighed: It's really a cruel thing to give birth to a child in this world! Life is really hard!
After leaving the refugee area, Brigitte and I rushed directly to Prince Ode's mansion
On the way, I suggested to Brigitte:
Auntie, let me do what’s next! I promise you that everything in the city will change. Not only will there be no children starving and freezing, but they and their parents can easily survive this cold winter.
What do you want to do? Look at your smirk, what's the point? Daxiu, this city is looking forward to us for more than 200,000 disasters. Don't play it as a game!
I smiled and put my mouth to Bi Ji's ear, and said my own idea in a gurgling way
Don't worry! Then we can do this...
After a walk around the Central Plaza, Brigitte and I went directly to the Odd's Mansion to visit Prince Odd who was lying on the bed.
At first we thought Prince Ode was pretending to be sick because of the incident in the east window, so he escaped the emperor's criticism.
After meeting, I looked at his bear who was tilted, drooling, and paralyzed in bed and unable to move. I, who had never had a good impression of the nobles, couldn't help but sympathize with this poor man.
Compared to Yushu Linfeng's two sons, Prince Aud's appearance is really hard to be proud of.
Mouse eyes, wine nose, fat body, lying on the bed and panting
Looking at him, I always remember the fat silkworm city lord I met in Niels City back then
When he learned that the imperial envoy had arrived, he shook his head desperately to say something to his son and me, but his knotted tongue slutted for a long time, and he could only spit out a few vague bytes intermittently. The general idea was to ask his two sons to treat us well and not neglect them.
Auntie, is he really paralyzed or false paralyzed?
It should be true. I just sent the dragon power into his body, but my limbs didn't react
Want to pretend to be sick in front of us and avoid blame?
Grace and I are not so easy to fool. Grace said that she is a little familiar with medical principles and uses the name of treating diseases to input dragon power to detect his body, but she found no suspicious points.
In private, I whispered to Brigitte quietly: It shouldn't be pretending... I have to bear such a heavy burden and do such a laborious exercise. It would be unreasonable not to be on the wind!
You inappropriate little devil... we should be careful. Josie is coming soon, let him take a look with the Silver Moon Eye! For some reason, after coming here, I always feel like we are in the calculations of others!
Brigitte's uneasiness is also mine
The Black Hawk Knights were stolen in Danding's branch. The murder method on the scene was extremely cruel. The mysterious secret agent who looked like Melia, had so many things happened in less than half a day after entering Danding City. No matter how you look, it looked like someone was setting up a plan to frame me.
After leaving Prince Odd's room, I pretended to think of it suddenly, and asked the two casually:
Hey, that person is the woman who gave the idea and asked me to come here, it seems to be something, Ksena! Yes, it's her, is she here?
The brothers looked at each other, and finally the younger brother Earl Kate answered
Oh, that woman made my father like this, we have already taken her...
What happened to her?
Earl Kate glanced at me in fear and stammered: Hurry up, drive away!
Drive it away? Really? It wasn't that killed the maid, right? It was a death sentence! I remember a few months ago when His Royal Highness the Princess started killing in Fengdu, a few guys were executed because of this kind of hobby...
The two of them, who had been scared by me before, were afraid of drinking. Before they finished speaking, they shouted in unison.
Nothing! We, we really drove her away! With the lessons of Count Dick, who dares to do such a thing now!
Instinctively, they all turned their eyes to Biji for help, but at this time, Biji looked angry and turned her head disdainfully.
Brigitte's coldness made the two more desperate. I took the opportunity to work harder, lowered my voice, and said with a dark face:
Even a prostitute is a life! If I find out...
They shouted in disobedience: Really, we really didn’t kill her! If you don’t believe it, we will find her tomorrow!
Since the massacre half a year ago, the surname Fabir can no longer be the talisman for the nobles.
The two of them were frightened, looking at their embarrassing looks, I couldn't believe that such people would have the courage to do something to resist the emperor.
The banquet to entertain me and Brigitte had already been prepared. Looking at the delicious food on the table, Brigitte, who had rarely spoken before, had a dark face as if she was about to kill people.
‘The rich family smells like wine and meat, and they have frozen bones on their way’, probably that’s the case!
As he said that, Brigitte sneered, slapped the corner of the table with her palm, and left with her sleeves
Only two dumbfounded, looking at the broken table at a loss
Looking at the wood chips all over the floor, I looked at me who was sneering and drinking slowly. A few seconds later, Earl Kate came to his senses first. After muttering a few words in his brother's ear, he raised his hand and waved the maids around him, then took out a palm-sized box from under the table, and handed it to me respectfully with a flattering smile on his face and a full mouthful of respect.
I lazily took the box and opened it. It was a thumb-sized gem inside, with a gold and silver cat ear and eye gem, crystal clear, and you can tell it was not an ordinary person at first glance.
Bribe me? You should keep this thing and prepare to buy a coffin for yourself!
I glanced at it, sneered and threw the box back to the two of them.
You are not unclear about my situation in the empire. If you accept bribes and your butts are not clean, I will die faster than you! Are you harming me?
Earl Kate pushed the box over again
You know, I know, my brother knows this. If we don’t talk about it, who would have noticed that when you left Danding, how many more stones did you carry on your body?
I took the box, looked at it greedily, shook my head and pushed it back, and sighed: If you take money, you have to do things for others! The cat eyes are a good thing. If you take your things, you have to pull you. But most of the two of them have been buried in the grave. I don’t think it’s possible to pull it!
My lifelong salary is not necessarily affordable for half a cat eye gem if I add up.
It’s not that I don’t want it, but what’s hateful is that I, with enemies everywhere, have no qualifications to be a corrupt official at all.
I have no good feelings for these two Fabirs, but this time, even if I don't take their benefits, I plan to give them some advice and save their lives
Earl Kate wanted to tremble more, but I waved her hand to stop her
It would be useless to plead with me! In a few days, the inspector Josie will arrive here to deal with your affairs. He is the main person to deal with this matter! Blade Dragon Josie, who is he? I think you know better than me!
The princess dominated so many people some time ago, but he was still planning and planning!
Knowing that Josie will come, the two nobles' faces were pale
Inspector Halgert? He, will he come too?
Ruyue killed corrupt officials nationwide and suppressed lawless relatives. The one who rushed to the forefront for her was Qiao Xi. Qiao Xi was upright and selfless. Ruyue and the emperor trusted him very much.
For the nobles, except for Ruyue, Josie is the most terrifying person because he cannot be bribed.
But Josie is not the hardest to deal with!
I hit the two of them again on the fragile hearts, then poured a glass of wine, picked up a bite of food and ate it, and said softly:
When I left Fengdu, His Royal Highness was in the sixth change, so he could not deal with this matter in person! Calculate the time, she should have completed the sixth change! Such a serious thing happened, guess what the two of you, a not-so-loved cousin, with her temper, is the possibility of visiting Danding to investigate in person?
I thought about the two of them and reasoned that it was becoming more and more terrible. Their hearts were not as difficult as my struggle, and they were almost about to jump out of their chests.
This is all the trick of Wallace's traitor! It's him, it's him inciting...
Don’t say too much about quibbling! Your Majesty has already investigated the incident clearly! You should spend your energy to lie, but you might as well find a good cemetery for yourself while there is still time...
As I said that, I threw the investigation report handed over to the emperor by the Black Hawk Knights to the two of them. The two brothers picked it up and took a look, and they immediately collapsed completely.
The two brothers pulled and knelt in front of me in disrespect. They couldn't even care about their demeanor and face. They cried and snotted, begged for mercy and complained, and even blamed their father. They said that this was all the sins of their old man. The two brothers were actually good people who loved the people as much as their sons.
Although it was done by Prince Odd, as his son and assistant, with Ruyue's unkind temper, guess whether she will hold you accountable for your joint responsibility? For example, exiling the two to the place where the birds do not shit in the Fengfeng Gorge to serve in the military, it seems that she prefers to do such things recently...
The two nobles cried and begged for mercy in front of me, and they were full of ugly things. After playing with them for a long time, I slowly guided them to the confusion.
I am just a leader, and I can't make any decision in this matter, so I'm not going to beg for mercy from me at all! If Princess Ruyue interferes in this matter, even if Your Majesty wants to show mercy, it will be useless to let you go! But things are not that desperate. Now in Danding City, there is someone who can save you!
Who is it?
It is the one who just left and called Ji Na by His Majesty the Emperor, Princess Ruyue’s mother, Aunt Brigitte!
she?
Two fools are facing each other and can't understand what I said for a while
Don’t you understand? Who is Brigitte? At the princess’ wedding a few days ago, haven’t you seen the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor to her clearly?
No matter how stupid the brothers are, they understand what I mean at this moment. They are tilted their heads like chickens pecking at rice, looking like they suddenly realize their enlightenment.
Looking at their gratitude and tears, I sneered in my heart and continued to guide the two of them.
Everyone knows that as soon as Aunt Brigitte speaks, even if it is a star, His Majesty will pick it for her! Aunt Brigitte has a good impression of you, but just now she and I went to the city and saw many children picking grass seeds from horse manure to eat. Not to mention how uncomfortable it is! You know, Auntie likes children very much! After you come back, you are holding a banquet here, look at this... Woo, there are actually fresh fish! It’s cold outside, you are so capable, where did you call me! People starve to death every day in the city, but you are here to treat her with this rare and delicious food. Didn’t you intentionally make her angry?
Oh, why didn't we expect it! No wonder the Duke...
After my guidance, Marquis Kane slapped his thighs and shouted that he was stupid and wrong.
Now, I don’t need to mention it, you should know how to do it, right?
I poured two glasses of wine for the two of them and comforted them with kind words:
Things have not reached that terrible point! As long as Brigitte is happy, she is willing to come forward to plead with the princess or His Majesty for you, it will be much easier! Come on, have a drink and suppress your shock...
The implementation of the new policy injected fresh blood into the declining empire, and for a time the whole country was full of prosperity and vitality.
However, at the end of the year, the riots in Leto Province cast a gray shadow on this prosperity.
As I was transferred by the emperor to deal with this matter, the closer I got to the lower class during the investigation, the more I felt that many of Ruyue’s policies were too ideal. After the glitz, all the remaining sad things in the world were all sad.
After finishing the bath in the hotel's luxurious bathroom, the poor noble brothers sent someone to send two invitations and asked Brigitte and I to go to their house for a banquet.
There is no good banquet, I guess it is that this banquet must be related to bribery and pleading.
I took the invitation with a smile and asked Brigitte: Auntie, will you go tonight?
Brigitte shook his head gently and refused
According to my opinion, Prince Odd's son included all the rooms on the top floor, and of course the cost was paid by these suckers.
Since staying in this luxurious hotel, Brigitte has been depressed. When she learned that one night would cost ten gold coins, her face turned even more ugly
She snorted softly: Ten gold coins? It's enough for an ordinary family to live in a month!
My flattery was wrong, and Brigitte was in a bad mood. At this time, handing over two invitations to treat her to dinner was not helpful to the fire and make her even more unhappy
I'm cursing in my heart
I'm going to the banquet, and I'll go to your big-headed banquet! Two fools can't even look at the face and check the colors. How can I entertain my aunt with delicacies at this time? It's going to be a waste of my "night snack" in the evening!
On the surface, I was still calm and turned my inquiring eyes to Bi Ji
It's still early, what are we doing that night?
Brigitte sighed lightly and whispered:
Let's go to the city with me, I want to see what's going on in the city again...
Brigitte walked slowly in front of me, and I followed closely like a little follower
We left the rich residential area, which was heavily guarded by the army, and entered the crowded and dirty slums again
I have no objection to Brigitte's move. The destruction of the Black Hawk Knights Division has completely cut off my intelligence source. From tomorrow on, I will inevitably deal with the high-ranking officials and nobles in the city. Now I don't go out to collect information. As an outsider, I am unfamiliar with people and places, and I will inevitably be fooled by them at that time.
Before leaving, I learned from the waiter in the hotel that such a huge number of hungry people poured in, and the security situation in the city deteriorated rapidly.
In the past half month, small-scale riots have occurred almost every day, and there are countless criminal cases such as robbery and theft.
In order to cope with the worsening governance situation, the two Kane brothers who handled political affairs on behalf of their father had to use the army to divide the land and implement military control, and completely isolate the refugee and wealthy areas.
His words were immediately confirmed. From the hotel where we lived to the Central Plaza, only a few thousand steps away, Brigitte and I encountered several robberies against us.
Even though I took action again and again to repel the robbers, the fearless people still kept patronizing us
When he came out of the hotel, Brigitte ordered some pastries and distributed them to the begging children along the way. Unexpectedly, as soon as the things were taken out, they were immediately surrounded by countless pairs of dirty little hands. They were all extremely pitiful children, all of whom were thin and lonely, wearing shabby clothes, nearly a hundred dirty and dirty hands, holding up their frostbite hands, shouting, "Uncle, Auntie, please give me some food!"
In front of them, the Dragon Warrior's martial arts were of no use at all
In the chaos, the pastries brought by Brigitte were stolen in the blink of an eye. In the end, Brigitte and I squeezed out of the crowd and almost ran away in a panic.
When we stopped, we were amused and crying to find that our wallet had disappeared in the previous chaos.
Huh! It's so scary! Fortunately, I have the foresight and put away all the important things...
I wiping the cold sweat on my forehead and complained, but I heard that Brigitte's eyes were wrong and quickly closed my mouth
Brigitte looked at everything around him sadly, shook his head and sighed: It's been three hundred years, but unexpectedly, everything will return to the starting point after three hundred years, Hi!
The entire Danding City has become a huge refugee camp. Today, the cold land is frozen, and the hungry and cold poor people wrapped everything they could wear on their bodies, including tattered quilts, linens, and even sacks of food. As long as they can keep the cold winter, they will pack them on their bodies without any worries, squeeze them into a ball, and rely on each other to obtain warmth.
They braved the cold and came to Danding just to get the bowl of thin porridge that they don't give a day
A person who is like a maggot, a life like a maggot, this is the true face of the life of the lowest-level civilians in the empire
In sharp contrast, there is a wealthy area in another corner of the city, where the singing and dancing life is still there, the wine pool and the meat forest, and the drunkenness and dreams of death
Brigitte sighed for this. Three hundred years ago, when the demons ruled this land, most of the human life was like what you saw before you, struggling in the mud and ditches until the Dragon Warrior appeared... But only three hundred years have passed, Daxiu, look at it, everything in front of you seems to have returned to the time of the demon rule...
There is an old saying that Feng Shui turns around... No, it should be said that the world is round! After walking around, I returned to the starting point. This is normal! Auntie, we...
Brigitte interrupted me, with accusation in her tone
We are different from others! We are dragon warriors. The Ten Sages sacrificed themselves to create us! Enjoy the strength, power and wealth they give, should we do something?
I feel ashamed and recall my past actions. I don’t think my behavior deserves it. Dragon Warrior This title that was once regarded as a synonym for savior by countless people.
Just like what I said to Jagli at the beginning, millions of people struggled for the same goal and even sacrificed themselves. When the final goal was reached, only a few people could truly taste the taste of the fruits of victory.
Although I look down on the aristocrats of the Far family and think they are waste, to be fair, what I have done over the years is not much better than them. Besides being forced to do some good things, the lawless me in the past can be regarded as a disaster in Fengdu City.
I bowed my head and confessed to Brigitte: Auntie, I know what you want to say... I honestly admit that I am not a good person!
But Brigitte blamed herself: Actually, I have never done anything for our people in the past few decades? Judging by the standards of responsibility and obligations, what have I done for them?
I felt something bad. What happened to my aunt? I suddenly felt so many feelings?
However, this is what is called a person's death, and his words are good?
As he spoke, Brigitte suddenly apologized to me: Sorry, Daxiu, I ruined your plan!
My plan? Where do I have any plans?
I touched the back of my head and couldn't figure out why my pretty aunt apologized to me.
I know that your original intention is to keep your identity hidden, and you are hiding in the dark and watching coldly, so you changed your plan. This time, Xiao Ao asked you to deal with this matter, which is really weird! You are afraid that there will be another conspiracy behind you, so doing this is the safest way, but because of me...
I touched my head and shook my head to comfort Brigitte: Where, Auntie did nothing wrong! In the current situation, people starve to death every day. If I hide in the dark again, I will be really not a human being! Although the situation this time is a bit strange, we should act carefully and we should be able to spend it safely! After these few days, when the young guards arrive, all the initiative will be in our hands!
I have another thought in my mind
Ask yourself, if I hadn't met Brigitte this time, I was concerned about her opinion and in order to please her, no matter how many people starved to death, I really wouldn't want to show up in advance
Whether it is disaster relief or anti-corruption, is there really no one in the empire?
No one should look for me, a murderer who only knows how to kill people. The dog emperor is either having a nerve problem or has ulterior motives.
The central square in Danding City is the area where refugees gather the most. The refugees here spontaneously organized and established a security team to maintain public security. The public security situation is relatively good.
There were piles of fires in the east and west of the square. There were people who were roasting fires to keep warm, including men and women, old and young. The jumping fire reflected the numb and confused faces.
Although the future is dark, in the martial empire, ordinary people are definitely not the kind of lambs waiting to die. If they are forced to go to the fore, they will stand up and resist.
Even if the opponent is a dragon warrior who is similar to the existence of a god
Brigitte and I found an empty seat and just sat down, we immediately heard the outbreak of roar.
Damn, this life is impossible! Look at this thing, if you don’t eat pigs, just give us this one? If you knew it, you wouldn’t come in and go directly to Wallace…
The person who spoke was a young man, very tall, wearing an old cotton jacket, carrying a grain bag in his left hand, and was angrily sprinkling a handful of rice on the ground.
You're crazy, what are you talking nonsense!
As soon as she finished speaking, she was immediately stopped by a young woman next to her. She snatched the rice bag with one hand, squatted down, and carefully pulled the rice that had fallen all over the floor back into the bag, looking like her wife
Throw the food, what will our children eat tomorrow?
Mold turned into this! This thing is mud, can it be eaten?
The man snatched the rice bag and wanted to throw it into the fire, but was pulled tightly by the others next to him.
Wright, don't do anything randomly! After burning him, what will your family eat tomorrow?
Can this thing be eaten? How many people have diarrhea these days? It’s all this harmful thing!
But it’s not OK to eat! We are stuck here and can’t walk...
Damn it, I would have been rebellious if I had known that I would have died! I will die all the time. Since I won’t let me live, I won’t let them live a better life!
There are more than a dozen people sitting around the fire. Except for those who shout, wipe away tears, and dissuade, most of them are silent and cold-eyed bystanders.
The orange fire illuminates every silent face. Under the swaying light, each pair of eyes flashes with sharp cold light.
If you don't die in silence, you will explode in silence. Since you are waiting to die, why not stand up and resist? Perhaps there is still a glimmer of vitality... I smelled it. This is a city that is about to erupt.
Taking advantage of the chaos, I quietly squeezed in and picked up a few grains of rice that fell on the ground.
Follow me and Brigitte took a piece from my hand. When he squeezed his index finger and thumb, the rice grains were broken into powder.
She whispered in my ear: This is the aged grain that has been stored for at least four or five years, and it should have been abandoned for a long time!
I nodded, gently retracted my palms, and with a little force, I pinched the remaining rice into powder
Then he pulled a dark corner and sat down as the listener
When the Wright's man calmed down, the others began to whisper.
I heard that the inspector sent by His Majesty has arrived at Danding, we can...
Lick, do you still remember the inspector Wayne? It was the last time that everyone had seen it? When he first came, he said so nicely, saying that he was ordered by His Majesty to investigate the people's sentiments and listen to the people's voices! What happened? The fat pig prince golden woman smashed her and immediately changed her face...
Then everyone can also raise some money like last time, send people to Fengdu and go to the wall...
Wayne, that guy, was just what we said that we had written on the wall and said that we had finally fed this evil dog, and then we had to change to a hungry tiger?
I listened aside for a long time, but I didn't get any valuable information
What these civilians around them complained was similar to what they heard in Wallace in the afternoon. The only thing that was confirmed was that Prince Ode's two sons were not good birds. They opened the warehouse and put out grain to help the victims. They all used them to help the victims with almost inedible rice noodles.
While I was listening quietly, Brigitte stood up and went to find the previous couple to find out the information.
The young man named Wright built a shack nearby with thatch, cardboard and dead branches. He had just become a father, and there was a cry of a baby in the shack.
When I approached, the man was squatting on the ground outside the shack, holding his chin with his hands in a daze
With the faint fire coming from nearby, I saw Brigitte and his wife huddled in the shack, each holding a baby in their arms.
Don’t have milk? Look at the child’s weight loss like this!
Even adults are not full, so there is no enough milk... These two children have been hungry for many days and have no strength to cry...
Seeing this, Brigitte untied her clothes without hesitation, took out her nipples and fed the child in her arms.
That baby, give me a hug too!
The hungry baby smelled the frankincense and instinctively opened his mouth, one by one, held his nipples and sucked it hard, and the crying stopped immediately, and the sound of sizzling came from the darkness.
Good women and bad women are different! They are both women, why is Ruyue the woman...
I resented Ruyue's selfishness again. At this moment, the young man squatting outside suddenly grabbed my hand and thanked me with gratitude: Is she your wife? Thank you so much! The food you distributed cannot be eaten at all...
The other party's sudden action scared me. The aunt was mistaken for my wife, which was even more awful mistake. I quickly waved my hand and said:
No, she is mine...my sister! We are here to join relatives!
Go to your relatives? No wonder, your accent doesn't look like a local
Hi, the world is not good now. I used to be a business dealer in private wine, but I was not lucky and was caught by the "Black Skin Dog" (Black Hawk Knights). Not only did I lose all my capital, but I also had to hide in Danding to join my relatives! Unexpectedly, it was even more uneasy here. My uncle was gambled and lost all his property. Now I don’t know where to hide from debts. What’s worse is that there is still a famine here...
I made up a few lies and made up excuses, and found that each other was bankrupt, and the same experience resonated with me. The other party quickly started to talk to me enthusiastically
I am raising foxes and make a living by selling fur. My original life is quite good! Who knows that this year I am so excited that I have implemented new policies, saying that fur is a strategic material, and it is purchased and sold in a unified manner, and private individuals are not allowed to buy and sell at will!
A good leather...
The man said to unbutton the collar of the clothes, revealing the fur underwear inside
It’s just such a piece. It used to have twenty gold coins, but this year it was crushed to only three gold coins! Is it still alive if I can’t even collect the feed money?
Three gold coins? Isn’t it too exaggerated? On Fengdu, this piece is worth at least thirty or forty gold coins! By the way, this thing is not very heavy. You can ship it to other places like I sell private wine, and the profit is very generous!
Haha... I think so too! But luck is as bad as you. I was found by those bad guys on the road... I didn't say that I lost all the things, but I also got in! In order to save me, there was nothing at home...
It’s understandable that I have lived in this damn place for a while, and I can’t even make up for the money if I invested in it!
Yes, yes, it's a vampire cave! Moreover, this loan method was implemented this year, and I thought I could save some interest, but who knew...
As soon as I heard this, I immediately realized that this person was a victim of the standard new policy: he went bankrupt because he used the new policy to make money from local officials, so he was so depressed that even his house was confiscated for sheltering the wind and rain, and eventually became a refugee with nothing.
Wright shook his head with a bitter face and sighed: It's really a cruel thing to give birth to a child in this world! Life is really hard!
After leaving the refugee area, Brigitte and I rushed directly to Prince Ode's mansion
On the way, I suggested to Brigitte:
Auntie, let me do what’s next! I promise you that everything in the city will change. Not only will there be no children starving and freezing, but they and their parents can easily survive this cold winter.
What do you want to do? Look at your smirk, what's the point? Daxiu, this city is looking forward to us for more than 200,000 disasters. Don't play it as a game!
I smiled and put my mouth to Bi Ji's ear, and said my own idea in a gurgling way
Don't worry! Then we can do this...
After a walk around the Central Plaza, Brigitte and I went directly to the Odd's Mansion to visit Prince Odd who was lying on the bed.
At first we thought Prince Ode was pretending to be sick because of the incident in the east window, so he escaped the emperor's criticism.
After meeting, I looked at his bear who was tilted, drooling, and paralyzed in bed and unable to move. I, who had never had a good impression of the nobles, couldn't help but sympathize with this poor man.
Compared to Yushu Linfeng's two sons, Prince Aud's appearance is really hard to be proud of.
Mouse eyes, wine nose, fat body, lying on the bed and panting
Looking at him, I always remember the fat silkworm city lord I met in Niels City back then
When he learned that the imperial envoy had arrived, he shook his head desperately to say something to his son and me, but his knotted tongue slutted for a long time, and he could only spit out a few vague bytes intermittently. The general idea was to ask his two sons to treat us well and not neglect them.
Auntie, is he really paralyzed or false paralyzed?
It should be true. I just sent the dragon power into his body, but my limbs didn't react
Want to pretend to be sick in front of us and avoid blame?
Grace and I are not so easy to fool. Grace said that she is a little familiar with medical principles and uses the name of treating diseases to input dragon power to detect his body, but she found no suspicious points.
In private, I whispered to Brigitte quietly: It shouldn't be pretending... I have to bear such a heavy burden and do such a laborious exercise. It would be unreasonable not to be on the wind!
You inappropriate little devil... we should be careful. Josie is coming soon, let him take a look with the Silver Moon Eye! For some reason, after coming here, I always feel like we are in the calculations of others!
Brigitte's uneasiness is also mine
The Black Hawk Knights were stolen in Danding's branch. The murder method on the scene was extremely cruel. The mysterious secret agent who looked like Melia, had so many things happened in less than half a day after entering Danding City. No matter how you look, it looked like someone was setting up a plan to frame me.
After leaving Prince Odd's room, I pretended to think of it suddenly, and asked the two casually:
Hey, that person is the woman who gave the idea and asked me to come here, it seems to be something, Ksena! Yes, it's her, is she here?
The brothers looked at each other, and finally the younger brother Earl Kate answered
Oh, that woman made my father like this, we have already taken her...
What happened to her?
Earl Kate glanced at me in fear and stammered: Hurry up, drive away!
Drive it away? Really? It wasn't that killed the maid, right? It was a death sentence! I remember a few months ago when His Royal Highness the Princess started killing in Fengdu, a few guys were executed because of this kind of hobby...
The two of them, who had been scared by me before, were afraid of drinking. Before they finished speaking, they shouted in unison.
Nothing! We, we really drove her away! With the lessons of Count Dick, who dares to do such a thing now!
Instinctively, they all turned their eyes to Biji for help, but at this time, Biji looked angry and turned her head disdainfully.
Brigitte's coldness made the two more desperate. I took the opportunity to work harder, lowered my voice, and said with a dark face:
Even a prostitute is a life! If I find out...
They shouted in disobedience: Really, we really didn’t kill her! If you don’t believe it, we will find her tomorrow!
Since the massacre half a year ago, the surname Fabir can no longer be the talisman for the nobles.
The two of them were frightened, looking at their embarrassing looks, I couldn't believe that such people would have the courage to do something to resist the emperor.
The banquet to entertain me and Brigitte had already been prepared. Looking at the delicious food on the table, Brigitte, who had rarely spoken before, had a dark face as if she was about to kill people.
‘The rich family smells like wine and meat, and they have frozen bones on their way’, probably that’s the case!
As he said that, Brigitte sneered, slapped the corner of the table with her palm, and left with her sleeves
Only two dumbfounded, looking at the broken table at a loss
Looking at the wood chips all over the floor, I looked at me who was sneering and drinking slowly. A few seconds later, Earl Kate came to his senses first. After muttering a few words in his brother's ear, he raised his hand and waved the maids around him, then took out a palm-sized box from under the table, and handed it to me respectfully with a flattering smile on his face and a full mouthful of respect.
I lazily took the box and opened it. It was a thumb-sized gem inside, with a gold and silver cat ear and eye gem, crystal clear, and you can tell it was not an ordinary person at first glance.
Bribe me? You should keep this thing and prepare to buy a coffin for yourself!
I glanced at it, sneered and threw the box back to the two of them.
You are not unclear about my situation in the empire. If you accept bribes and your butts are not clean, I will die faster than you! Are you harming me?
Earl Kate pushed the box over again
You know, I know, my brother knows this. If we don’t talk about it, who would have noticed that when you left Danding, how many more stones did you carry on your body?
I took the box, looked at it greedily, shook my head and pushed it back, and sighed: If you take money, you have to do things for others! The cat eyes are a good thing. If you take your things, you have to pull you. But most of the two of them have been buried in the grave. I don’t think it’s possible to pull it!
My lifelong salary is not necessarily affordable for half a cat eye gem if I add up.
It’s not that I don’t want it, but what’s hateful is that I, with enemies everywhere, have no qualifications to be a corrupt official at all.
I have no good feelings for these two Fabirs, but this time, even if I don't take their benefits, I plan to give them some advice and save their lives
Earl Kate wanted to tremble more, but I waved her hand to stop her
It would be useless to plead with me! In a few days, the inspector Josie will arrive here to deal with your affairs. He is the main person to deal with this matter! Blade Dragon Josie, who is he? I think you know better than me!
The princess dominated so many people some time ago, but he was still planning and planning!
Knowing that Josie will come, the two nobles' faces were pale
Inspector Halgert? He, will he come too?
Ruyue killed corrupt officials nationwide and suppressed lawless relatives. The one who rushed to the forefront for her was Qiao Xi. Qiao Xi was upright and selfless. Ruyue and the emperor trusted him very much.
For the nobles, except for Ruyue, Josie is the most terrifying person because he cannot be bribed.
But Josie is not the hardest to deal with!
I hit the two of them again on the fragile hearts, then poured a glass of wine, picked up a bite of food and ate it, and said softly:
When I left Fengdu, His Royal Highness was in the sixth change, so he could not deal with this matter in person! Calculate the time, she should have completed the sixth change! Such a serious thing happened, guess what the two of you, a not-so-loved cousin, with her temper, is the possibility of visiting Danding to investigate in person?
I thought about the two of them and reasoned that it was becoming more and more terrible. Their hearts were not as difficult as my struggle, and they were almost about to jump out of their chests.
This is all the trick of Wallace's traitor! It's him, it's him inciting...
Don’t say too much about quibbling! Your Majesty has already investigated the incident clearly! You should spend your energy to lie, but you might as well find a good cemetery for yourself while there is still time...
As I said that, I threw the investigation report handed over to the emperor by the Black Hawk Knights to the two of them. The two brothers picked it up and took a look, and they immediately collapsed completely.
The two brothers pulled and knelt in front of me in disrespect. They couldn't even care about their demeanor and face. They cried and snotted, begged for mercy and complained, and even blamed their father. They said that this was all the sins of their old man. The two brothers were actually good people who loved the people as much as their sons.
Although it was done by Prince Odd, as his son and assistant, with Ruyue's unkind temper, guess whether she will hold you accountable for your joint responsibility? For example, exiling the two to the place where the birds do not shit in the Fengfeng Gorge to serve in the military, it seems that she prefers to do such things recently...
The two nobles cried and begged for mercy in front of me, and they were full of ugly things. After playing with them for a long time, I slowly guided them to the confusion.
I am just a leader, and I can't make any decision in this matter, so I'm not going to beg for mercy from me at all! If Princess Ruyue interferes in this matter, even if Your Majesty wants to show mercy, it will be useless to let you go! But things are not that desperate. Now in Danding City, there is someone who can save you!
Who is it?
It is the one who just left and called Ji Na by His Majesty the Emperor, Princess Ruyue’s mother, Aunt Brigitte!
she?
Two fools are facing each other and can't understand what I said for a while
Don’t you understand? Who is Brigitte? At the princess’ wedding a few days ago, haven’t you seen the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor to her clearly?
No matter how stupid the brothers are, they understand what I mean at this moment. They are tilted their heads like chickens pecking at rice, looking like they suddenly realize their enlightenment.
Looking at their gratitude and tears, I sneered in my heart and continued to guide the two of them.
Everyone knows that as soon as Aunt Brigitte speaks, even if it is a star, His Majesty will pick it for her! Aunt Brigitte has a good impression of you, but just now she and I went to the city and saw many children picking grass seeds from horse manure to eat. Not to mention how uncomfortable it is! You know, Auntie likes children very much! After you come back, you are holding a banquet here, look at this... Woo, there are actually fresh fish! It’s cold outside, you are so capable, where did you call me! People starve to death every day in the city, but you are here to treat her with this rare and delicious food. Didn’t you intentionally make her angry?
Oh, why didn't we expect it! No wonder the Duke...
After my guidance, Marquis Kane slapped his thighs and shouted that he was stupid and wrong.
Now, I don’t need to mention it, you should know how to do it, right?
I poured two glasses of wine for the two of them and comforted them with kind words:
Things have not reached that terrible point! As long as Brigitte is happy, she is willing to come forward to plead with the princess or His Majesty for you, it will be much easier! Come on, have a drink and suppress your shock...
