Taking Marvel back to the Northern Song Dynasty

When Zhao Fujin came to the grain store, she and Zhao An couldn't get near the store door.

There are so many people here trying to snap up!

"Customers, young and old. We really have no food to sell here. Look, look. The shelves and rice vats are all gone. Even the warehouse in our backyard is empty. ! Everyone, please stop gathering around..." The shopkeeper in the store shouted loudly. But his voice was drowned out by the noisy shouts for food.

"Old Wu! After being a neighbor for so many years, you can't lose your conscience like those black-hearted grain stores..."

"There is obviously still food in the granary in your backyard. Why don't you sell it? Why don't you sell it? Are you just watching the people starve to death?"

"Shopkeeper, we kneel down to you! Please sell us some. If we don't have food, someone will die in our house."

"My mother hasn't eaten for two days, please do me a favor..."

"Two carriages came out of their backyard last night, and the carriages were full of polished rice. Originally, they wanted to use the carriages to take away a few more carts, but they were blocked in the yard by people begging for food. Don't believe them. Some unscrupulous grain dealers will ask you if you will sell grain. If you don’t sell grain, I will bring people to smash up your shop. If you are cornered, I will kill you."

There were all kinds of sounds in the crowd, and it was even on the verge of danger. Someone may break out and kill someone at any time, but in times of crisis, there are not only shopkeepers in front of rice stores now. Not only were there people buying food, but there were even Forbidden Army soldiers maintaining order.

"Your Highness, there are too many people to look at, so let's not go in!" Zhao An looked at the entrance of the rice store that could break out into bloodshed at any time, took two steps and whispered to the princess beside him.

"They should still have grain in their stores, these black-hearted grain merchants. They should really kill the nine tribes!" Zhao Fujin had no sympathy for those begging for grain waving gold and silver.

But just near the entrance of the grain store, a group of refugees lying on the roadside looked at these people with blank eyes. They had no money to buy food and could only watch their relatives starve to death.

"If you want to kill someone, it should be your royal brothers who do it! However, at this time, the grain merchants should still be gentle. Look at those Forbidden Army soldiers, they seem to be sent by your royal brother..." Zhao An looked at the fat rice shop owner indifferently! But I also know in my heart that if we attack these businessmen now, things will probably only develop in a worse direction. Otherwise, Zhao Kai would not have allowed the forbidden soldiers to protect these people.

But everything has two sides.

It would be fine if the two princes had firm control over the Zhending Mansion, but now everyone knows that there are still so many thieves in the city.

For a prince who can't even deal with a group of petty thieves, these grain merchants probably don't take them seriously either. Even if the princes have orders, these businessmen are probably just obeying and disobeying them.

Zhao An guessed that in order to wait for reinforcements and to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, King Yun might requisition food from the whole city and give it to the fighting soldiers first.

However, this kind of order cannot be announced to the public unless it is absolutely necessary.

Once the order is issued to protect the army but not the people, the thieves in the city will definitely gather in crowds to rebel.

A prince is timid about giving orders.

This is really frustrating!

But there is no way, now the whole city is in chaos.

If there is peace, it won't take long for them to close the city gates, and I believe they will catch all these thieves soon.

But now that the Liao soldiers are outside the city, everything will seem so powerless.

Even if some people are still trying to arrest people wholeheartedly, they have lost the help of the local system of Zhending Mansion, the forbidden troops who came from far away Tokyo. It will be impossible to solve the case in a short time.

A group of thieves just found a house to hide in.

Without the help of household registration from the local government, arresting people is equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack.

In the local household registration, even if it is clearly written as Zhang San!

But without photos, we can only rely on grassroots officials who are familiar with local business.

Otherwise, anyone can pretend to be Zhang San.

Moreover, due to the implementation of the action of strengthening the walls and clearing the country, the city was already full of refugees.

The identity and household registration is even more confusing.

At this time, it would be Daxing Prison.

Nor can we eliminate the scourge of these thieves in the city!

"The world belongs to my Zhao family! When someone deserves to die..." After Zhao Fujin said this, he turned around sharply, glanced at Zhao An, and walked back to Zhao Shu.

"Brother, smash this grain store and distribute all the grain to the people here!" Zhao Fujin said with a gloomy temperament!

When Zhao Shu heard this, he felt happy.

To be able to make a virtuous and virtuous imperial sister like herself so angry that she wants to kill someone shows that these grain merchants really deserve to die.

But Zhao Shu had also noticed just now that there were soldiers of the Forbidden Army standing at the door of the grain store.

If the estimate is correct, then the grain store is really out of food.

There is food, but the food sold to the people should be gone.

He must have asked his third brother to be recruited.

"Okay, come here. Go check it out and find out whether there is food in the grain store." Zhao Shu asked Zhao Fujin to please the gods in the future. Now that Zhao Fujin spoke, of course he obeyed the order without hesitation.

Zhao Shu ordered, and soon several people went to check!

Seeing his men going about their business, Zhao Shu glanced at Zhao An.

"God, God, are you really not going to help me? There are so many refugees lying here. Is it possible for you, a god, to be kind?" Zhao Shu muttered helplessly in his heart.

The nobility of the gods in the hearts of mortals was probably already shattered in Zhao Shu's heart.

However, it is understandable that the Buddha was still scrambling for people to offer him incense and to have himself plated with gold every day!

Over time, pots have been placed on the streets.

The dry firewood has been lit and the water has been put into the pot. Now we are just waiting for the food to be prepared and cooked for the refugees.

"Your Highness, there is indeed food in the grain store. It's just that His Highness King Yun has given an order that no one can touch it without permission." Soon after someone showed the badge of the Forbidden Army, the guard guarding the door took everything seriously. Explained clearly.

"Since there is food, let them open the door and distribute food! If someone dies of hunger here today, let the owner of the food store be buried with him!" Zhao Fujin's anger has dissipated a lot now. In addition, after knowing the order given by his third brother, the whole person also restrained himself a lot.

Zhao Jing stayed aside quietly, not participating or speaking.

But while Zhao An was watching the excitement, he felt uncomfortable.

There seemed to be murderous intent, and someone was staring at him, to be precise, he was targeting the prince Zhao Shu.
