I'm back

Although Shanxidu County is far away from the capital, because Yan Qin has always been concerned about this place, in private, he arranges people to check it every now and then.

He reckoned that the second batch of disaster relief personnel would probably arrive at the disaster-stricken area. After thinking about it, Yan Qin wrote a few lines of small characters on letterhead paper, rolled it up, and put it in a small round bamboo.

With his finger on his lips, he whistled softly, and the pigeon standing on the cage hanging in front of the window flapped its snow-white wings, flew down and landed on the edge of his table.

The white dove's little red paws firmly grasped the edge of the table, its black and round mung bean eyes focused on the little emperor, and let out a cooing sound.

Yan Qin stroked its silky feathers, fed it two pieces of bird food, and tightly tied the small bamboo tube containing the secret letter to the pigeon's legs. The pigeons flew out.

However, as soon as he let the pigeon out, he turned around, and a pigeon fluttered its wings and landed on his shoulder.

Yan Qin took the pigeon off his shoulders, just wanting to see why the usually well-behaved pigeon was so disobedient.But when he took a closer look, he found that the one in his hand was a little thinner than the one that flew out just now. Looking at the thin legs and body, it was obviously not so round, and the feathers of the pigeon were covered with a layer of dust. Apparently it just flew in from outside.

He untied the red rope tied to the pigeon's legs, pulled out the cover of the bamboo tube, took out the letterhead inside and stretched it out.

The letters he wrote were always concise, but his replies were densely packed with small characters.The evening light was not very good, so Yan Qin raised his head, held up the piece of paper, and placed it close to his eyes, so that he could clearly see the mosquito-sized characters on it.

After reading two lines, his expression suddenly became solemn. The letter told him that Dugu Liu was assassinated and poisoned, and he is still in a coma. However, the people picked up a so-called secret letter of imperial decree, thinking that he, the emperor, was going to kill him. Dugu Liu, who had great opinions on the emperor who was far away in the sky, coupled with the instigation of someone with a heart, even robbed the second batch of people who helped with disaster relief, and tied up those innocent soldiers and doctors, trapped in the In the dungeon.

People are easy to be incited, this is very clear in Yan Qin's last life, unless violence is used to calm down the victims of the riots, or someone who can make them obey speaks out, otherwise, they will easily follow the lead.

What's more, these days, although no lives have been lost, but their homes have been destroyed, they can only live on relief, and they are always in a state of busyness, tension and depression. The emotions of the victims are really too easy to incite.

You know, the second batch of people who delivered things on behalf of the emperor were all here to help them. Imprisoning these people would do them no good.

Those supplies were originally the disaster relief funds allocated to them by the emperor, but when someone mobilized them and advocated that the officials were greedy for money, these mobs robbed them.

All of a sudden, the disaster victims turned into a mob, and they suddenly confronted the government.

"Idiots, what a bunch of idiots!" These people were affected by the disaster, their moods were relatively unstable, and their emotions were easily stirred up by others. He could understand, but the court has made so much effort these days, and the so-called caring people are behind their backs. Incitement, will they all believe it?

Moreover, he is a majestic emperor, he really wants to taboo against Dugu Liu, and directly recalls Dugu Liu to the capital with an imperial decree. He can kill the other party for any crime, so why send a so-called messenger to assassinate him with great fanfare? Dugu Liu.

Those common people can't even figure out such a truth, they are really stupid!

He was trembling with anger, and the pigeon that had landed on his palm lowered its head and pecked lightly twice on his palm, as if to remind him to feed.

"Be obedient, I'll find you something to eat." Yan Qin took the pigeon down the tall building, found the previous birdcage, and let the pigeon drink and eat by itself. Pen, I heard a familiar voice ringing in my ears.

The regent did not know when he came to the place where the pigeons were fed, and stood behind him abruptly.

Yan Yuge explained the reason why he suddenly appeared here: "I went to look for His Majesty just now, but found that His Majesty was not there. I asked the palace servants, and when I knew you were here, I came here too."

Yan Qin glanced at the regent, and said again: "Uncle Wang came just in time, I have something to show you."

He took out the small bamboo tube in his sleeve and handed the letter inside to the regent.

Yan Yuge was slightly puzzled, but still took the things in the little emperor's hand and looked at them seriously.

When the regent read the letter, Yan Qin said: "Gu really doesn't understand, why can't they use their brains to think about it, what kind of courtiers Gu Zhen wants to deal with, and it takes so much trouble."

Yan Yuge hadn't read the letter that the little emperor handed him, but after hearing what the little emperor said, he replied directly: "That's because they don't understand His Majesty, and they only believe what they want to believe."

Without being in this position, it is impossible to think so much. Those poor people, who can eat a bun and feel very happy, will think that the empress in the palace must be able to eat buns every day.

The regent looked at things very quickly. It didn't take long for him to finish reading all the small words on the paper.

He put the thin paper on the table: "Since this happened, what does His Majesty plan to do?"

Yan Qin said somewhat depressingly: "What else can we do? Naturally, we must hurry up and let the third batch of people rescue those people."

The disaster victims are able to do these things only because they have a large number of themselves and the second batch of people is small, and they are undefended.To put it bluntly, no matter how many disaster victims there are, most of them are old and weak women and children who have no power to restrain them. If the government really gets tough, the mob will not only be suppressed by others.

The regent said: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. It's just a mob. If you really want to face off with the fully armed officers and soldiers, if there is no strong enough leader to unite them, they will naturally scatter."

The reason why the mob rioted was that they were forced to have nowhere to go. Since they were all going to die anyway, they might as well fight it out and use their blood and tears to attract the court's attention.But the disaster victims in Shanxidu County are different. They have received relief from the court. Although their homes have been destroyed, they are still under construction now.

They are all timid people, who are incited by others to do such dizzy things for a while, and when the people who disturb the muddy water run away, these people will become a mess, not a climate at all.

Yan Qin also knew this, but he just couldn't help it: "Gu knows, no matter how good Dugu treats them, they won't risk their own lives for Dugu, and Gu is really worried about Dugu."

At the beginning when Dugu Liu went to investigate the affairs of Xiao's family, he arranged for secret guards to be by Dugu Liu's side, but this time Dugu Liu was ordered to go to Shanxidu County. The dark guards sent earlier stayed in the capital.

Think about it, the general is definitely different from the dark guard, it is impossible to protect Dugu Liu by his side all day long, and then he withdraws all of a sudden, Dugu Liu encountered this kind of bad luck, the person behind this calculation is obviously For him, the emperor, Dugu Liu should just be an unlucky victim.

Thinking of Dugu Liu's appearance, Yan Qin couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

Yan Yuge comforted and said: "What these victims did was just a farce. Your Majesty doesn't need to worry too much. Besides, Dugu Liutaji has his own destiny. Didn't the letter say that he is not dead? , but still unconscious..."

"Gu is just thinking, Dugu is in a coma now, if someone behind the scenes schemes and he really can't wake up, what should we do?"

Obviously, the so-called caring people were mixed among those villagers, most likely they were the people guarding Dugu Liu.They can take advantage of the chaos to incite the people to do whatever they want, so they will naturally be able to get close to Dugu Liu.

Dugu Liu can still hide from assassins while awake, but in this unconscious state, isn't she just like a fish lying on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.

In this situation, the regent doesn't know how to comfort the little emperor. After all, no matter how capable he is, he doesn't have the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the ground. He can fly to the mountainous capital and bring Dugu Liu back to the little emperor. .

He suggested that the little emperor think about things in a better way: "When Dugu Liu wakes up, it will naturally prove His Majesty's innocence."

Those behind the scenes advocated the riots for two reasons. One is that the current emperor wants to kill Zhongliang, and they want to protect the poor Dugu Liu, who sacrificed a lot for them.Another reason is that because of the frequent incidents of disasters and money corruption, the officials of the Ming and Ming dynasties received so much food, and they didn't need to work so hard to let them live in the same way as before, but the officials were greedy. Or let them have enough food and clothing.

Instead of letting the government exploit the disaster money first, they might as well do it themselves. Who would let Dugu Liu, who they can trust, not be there?

These people thought well, but they never thought that Dugu Liu was not the only one who contributed these days, the generals who followed Dugu Liu, and others were all benefactors who saved their lives.

After all, Dugu Liu has only one mouth, and it is impossible to wake up so many sleeping people in a short time after running and breaking his leg. Moreover, when the generals are doing those physical tasks, they work very hard and never slack off.

These people's kindness to them was selectively forgotten by the booing people in a strange madness.

"Gu knows, but let Gu just wait and see what happens, I really can't wait."

The regent thought for a while, and suggested: "Well, if Your Majesty is not at ease, I will ask the twelve guards to go again. Regardless of whether Dugu Liu is a person or a corpse by then, they will definitely be able to bring him back. . "

Yan Qin nodded: "That's also good."

The regent asked again: "Then how should we deal with those victims?" According to his temperament, he would choose to eradicate those mobs without mercy. After all, the knives of the twelve guards hadn't seen blood for a long time.

Yan Qin was silent for a while, and said without thinking: "Catch them! When the twelve guards arrive, they will all be arrested. We must find out the source."
