The Great Tang: God-level Bear Child

Li Chengfeng said: "Then how many people are there?"

Wei Zheng said: "How many people? Looking around, it is densely packed, at least not less than ten thousand! So many refugees came from Liangzhou City? That **** Wang Zhou, **** it, how did he become the city lord? If you can’t do it, don’t do it!”

It can be seen that Wei Zheng is really angry this time.

As the saying goes, if the public opinion is not fair, it is difficult to be the emperor.

If you want to be a good emperor, you must first be loved by the people.

If the people don't obey the emperor, sooner or later some people will start to rebel.

And if these more than 10,000 refugees become noisy, anti-Tang people will appear throughout the Tang Dynasty, and they will start plotting to rebel.

This is not good news for Li Shimin and Datang, so Li Shimin must be in a state of distress now, right?

Therefore, Li Chengfeng continued to ask: "Prime Minister Wei Zheng, may I ask how many people there are in Liangzhou City?"

Wei Zhengdao: "There are about 1.25 million people in total. The emperor distributed food to Liangzhou City according to the population of 1.3 million, which is more than ten million catties! I just don't understand why there is such an extra amount of food. Where are the tens of thousands of refugees coming out?"

"Could it be that Wang Zhou, the owner of Liangzhou City, embezzled a lot of food, which led to the emergence of refugees?" Li Chengfeng continued to ask.

Meanwhile, Wu Xu, Li Lizhi and others were also listening quietly.

Wei Zheng frowned, stroked his beard, and said, "Probably not. Wang Zhou is a good official. I have met him several times. He is honest and upright. I would rather he sent the wrong food than believe it. He will embezzle the food that the emperor distributes to the people!"

"That's not necessarily the case. The so-called knowing people and faces but not knowing the heart, Prime Minister Wei Zheng!" Li Chengfeng laughed.

Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "No, no, eighth prince, you haven't seen Wang Zhou, I have. I don't believe that people in pudding clothes would embezzle the refugees!"

"But what about the extra 10,000 refugees?" Li Lizhi asked suddenly.

Wei Zheng spread his hands and said, "I don't know either! So the emperor has to interrogate himself!"

"How about I go with you to have a look, Prime Minister Wei Zheng?" Li Chengfeng said suddenly.

He always felt that something was a little strange.

More than 10,000 refugees took the initiative to form a group to complain at the foot of Chang'an City?

Who gave them the courage?

Unless it is said that they are really hungry and unable to live, is it possible to do this?

If it is, it is really Wang Zhou who embezzled their food, then it is impossible for these 10,000 refugees?

Moreover, there are always refugees, and it is impossible for them to leave Liangzhou City and come to the foot of Chang'an City to sue the emperor!

So, something must be wrong.

"Alright Eighth Prince, let's hurry over now, the Emperor might be here soon!" Wei Zheng said.

"Okay, let's go and have a look!"

Li Chengfeng nodded, and then walked out of the gate of the West Chamber Pavilion with Wei Zheng, and ran towards the end of the West Street in Chang'an City.

The city of Chang'an in Nuoda has four avenues in the southeast, northwest, and these four avenues are scattered at the south foot of the imperial palace.

There are many common people living there, and even some high-ranking officials live there.

Therefore, relatively speaking, Chang'an City Street is much more prosperous than the streets of other cities, and it can be said to be the most prosperous place in the Tang Dynasty.

…

Soon, Li Chengfeng and others, together with Wei Zheng, came to the end of Chang'an City West Street.

Sure enough, as Wei Zheng said, a crowd of refugees gathered at the end of the entire West Street.

These people, all of them were disheveled and ragged, and looked as if they hadn't eaten for a long time.

The court guards at the side stopped them, preventing them from stepping into the main street of Chang'an City and disrupting the order there.

"The emperor is here!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came.

When everyone turned their heads, they saw Wang Dequan, the chief eunuch, personally driving a carriage, galloping towards West Street.

And the person in the car, no doubt, must be Li Shimin, Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Sure enough, when Li Chengfeng got off the carriage, he looked at the scene in front of him with puzzled eyes.

Li Shimin looked around, beyond West Street, there was a huge crowd of refugees, at least tens of thousands.

Are these refugees from Liangzhou City? How could he make trouble at the foot of the imperial palace in Chang'an City because he didn't have enough to eat? Why did Wang Zhou, the lord of Liangzhou City, go?

Does he eat shit?

What about the food I distributed to him? Were they all embezzled by him?

Li Shimin's face was livid, and he walked forward slowly.

Immediately afterwards, he happened to see Li Chengfeng, Wei Zheng and others beside him.

So Li Shimin said: "Feng'er, why are you here?"

Li Chengfeng turned back and said, "Father, my son heard that refugees from Liangzhou City have reached the foot of our Chang'an City? So I want to come and see what's going on?"

"Hmph, Wang Zhou, the city lord of Liangzhou, caused so many refugees to appear in their city because of his mismanagement. When I go back, I must remove his official title and see his dog's head!"

Li Shimin said very angrily.

What he hated most in his life was corrupt officials.

Just like last time, the 100,000 gold distributed by Li Shimin was stolen by Zhang Liang and his party. After Li Chengfeng solved the case, Li Shimin beheaded Zhang Liang angrily to make a warning to everyone else. Let’s see, who else dares to move him to allocate money to the people? Their public funds?

I don't want to, but now in Liangzhou City, there are refugees again?

Li Shimin looked at the people who were complaining incessantly, and felt very uncomfortable.

"Let us go in quickly, we are going to see the emperor!"

"Yeah, don't let us in, I'll just die here!"

"I haven't eaten rice for three or four days, please let us in, please..."

A group of refugees were begging the guards to let them enter Chang'an Avenue~www.readwn.com~but the guards said: "No one of you is allowed to enter without the emperor's order!"

The refugees wanted to rush in, but they were still blocked by the spears of the guards.

"Your Majesty, what do you think of this?" Wei Zheng asked Li Shimin.

Li Shimin frowned and said, "What else can I do? These are my people. How can I watch them starve? Wang Dequan, go to the nearby granary and ask someone to cook ten barrels of rice porridge and ten thousand white rice porridge. Steamed buns and some pickles, give these refugees first, let's talk about it after filling their stomachs!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Wang Dequan bowed slightly to Li Shimin, and quickly followed Li Shimin's instructions.

On the other side, Wei Zheng said, "Your Majesty, you donate food like this, but it can't solve the problem! These refugees have eaten their last meal and never finished their meal. Is it possible? Let them stay in Chang'an City and do nothing. Just us Do you cook for them?"

"Huh, I will naturally distribute food to them, but now, I have to deal with one person first, that is, the lord of Liangzhou City, Wang Zhou! I have already asked Lu Guogong to capture Wang Zhou, I believe he will soon It will get here!"

Li Shimin said solemnly.
