Datang Fenghua Road

No matter what happened today, people should live or have to live.Chang'an City Yamen dispatched an Anmin notice, and three full posters were posted at the gate of the palace.

Countless Marquis Wu were sent out to patrol the streets, and the officials of Chang'an 72 Fang also showed up. Everyone continued to appease the people, and people's hearts gradually settled down.

"It turned out that our lord came back, and our lord is not dead. Let me just say, the whole city is killing people today, but our common people didn't touch a single one. Thank God, today is really scary!"

It was a commoner who was speaking, carrying a bucket in his hand and washing the dirty blood on the street.Not far away stood a small square official on the street, holding a booklet in his hand to keep recording how much water the people poured.

Today, the three guards rebelled, massacred tens of thousands of people in one day, and blood was everywhere in the city. The Chang'an Yamen had to mobilize the people to cleanse.

Doing this work can be counted as labor labor, and it is enough to be registered by the Fangguan.If you work a lot, you can not only be exempted from labor, but even offset the taxes you should pay.

There are no major events in front of the people, and their lives are nothing but food and drink.Hearing that cleaning the ground can be free from labor, the whole of Chang'an immediately moved. Countless people took to the streets with their own buckets, tremblingly trying to wash the ground.

At first, there was a slight suspicion, but soon it became full of enthusiasm, just because every time they poured a bucket of water, Marquis Wu shouted points, and then the Fang officials in Fangshi immediately took a booklet and wrote it down.

Because of the strength of the second one in the east of the city, and the fact that he has a well at home, he poured a full [-] buckets of water in one hour, not only exempted from three years of corvée, but also deducted two years of tax.

This is not the end, the yamen specially subsidized the consistent reward.The hilarious Niu Er slammed his hands on his chest, scratching his ears and cheeks like a big monkey.

The common people are most afraid of seeing the typical. Once there is a typical example, they will immediately become emotional, and gradually the whole Chang'an will become lively.

"Hey, I'm talking about a few old buddies, guess what I saw today? You're so good, I only heard that our prince's three guards in the West Palace are powerful, but I don't know how powerful they are. Seeing it, that's really fierce..."

First, a commoner with a proud face started talking while splashing water.

Involving the three guards of the West Palace, everyone turned their ears, and even a few Marquis and Fang officials not far away came over and leaned their ears against the corner to listen.

The commoner was a little proud, and tutted in his mouth: "You didn't see it, today, a cavalry rushed into Liu Yushi's house, such a big Liu mansion, in a blink of an eye, ghosts cry and wolf howls!"

"Tell me, tell me, how did you kill him? How fierce are the three guards in the West House?" The people around him were aroused by his curiosity, and they all gathered around.

This commoner became more and more complacent, and said with a smile on his face: "When the three guards of the West Mansion rushed into Liu Mansion, I was just pushing a cart to deliver food, I dropped a grandfather, those soldiers killed really fiercely. If you want to resist, in a blink of an eye, you are all dead, the corpse falls on the ground, and the head is all chopped off."

When he said this, he suddenly swallowed and exaggerated: "One of the heads rolled around, and finally rolled under my car. At that time, I only felt that my legs were weak, and the crotch was hot when I touched it... "

"Hahaha!" The surrounding people burst into laughter, feeling that the story was particularly exciting.

Carrying a bucket in one hand to wash the floor, he suddenly took a sigh and raised his eyebrows: "Liu Yushi is not a good thing, I don't know how many girls have been harmed in the past few years, I heard that he also greedily occupied Datang Jianzhen. Funds, that is the money that our prince sells bonds!"

The topic was brought to the bond, and it immediately resonated with the people.

At the beginning, Han Yue issued two bonds, one was to prepare military funds for the attack on Liaodong. Afterwards, all the people made a lot of money.The second time was to issue bonds and borrow money to build a big town. Almost half of the people of Datang subscribed enthusiastically.

As a result, Han Yue had an accident in Jiannan Road, and it took five years for him to disappear. King Li Ke of Wu took the opportunity to seize the right to build a town, and embezzled tens of millions in five years.

Another commoner suddenly smashed the bucket and said with anger on his face: "When it comes to bonds, I'm also angry. When my lord issued treasury bonds, I sold the property to subscribe for five bonds. These five bonds are the whole family's wealth, old man. My parents and family members disagreed, but I looked for the lord, believing that he would allow me to make money."

"Yes, yes, that's what I thought at the beginning!" Several people around nodded with emotion, and even those Marquis Wu and Fang Guan murmured.

Obviously these Wuhou and Fang officials also bought bonds, so the common people will resonate when they say it.

The commoner continued: "I ignored the objection of my wife and the elderly, and I bought the Wuguan bond. I originally thought that I would rely on the proceeds of the bond to raise my children. As a result, our prince suddenly had an accident in Jiannan Road. He was spoiled and greedy, and he was a mother, grandmother, and grandmother, and I had to go to a Buddhist temple to borrow a donkey at a high price to roll around."

The man snorted again when he said this, gritted his teeth and said: "After all, God has eyes, our king is back. It's not that he didn't report it, the time has not come. If I say that there are still too few kills today, the money-loving people should be killed. The ministers chopped them all up to feed the dogs, and chopped up their families together."

"It's all chopped up? How many people have to be killed?"

Several old people in the crowd couldn't bear it, and their expressions changed slightly after hearing this.

Chapter 687 Where is Dongdu Buddha?let me see your golden body

The people who spoke gritted their teeth and snorted coldly: "It's not that I'm cruel, but it's too irritating. The youngest concubine in Liu Yushi's family has to eat two pieces of food every day. She dares to spoil it because of greed. Our hard-earned money."

"That's right, you should be killed!" A group of people suddenly became filled with righteous indignation when they thought of their hard-earned money being embezzled.

Among them, a middle-aged man suddenly burst into tears, gritted his teeth and said, "Kill, deserve to kill, kill them all!" His expression suddenly became crazy, and his hands were clenched tightly.

The common people who were familiar with the middle-aged man sighed and said softly: "Poor, brother Sun's family is suffering from bonds. At the beginning, he was determined to support the prince, and he sold property and land to collect more than a dozen pennies. In the end, the money Being embezzled by those bastards, the entire Tang Dynasty has no income. Brother Sun suddenly became impoverished, and the family ate without food. In desperation, he went to the Buddhist temple to borrow loan sharks, but the donkey rolled more and more. Last winter, just last winter... his little girl starved to death..."

"Alas, sin!" The commoner sighed at last, shaking his head bitterly.

He said that the middle-aged man's family was pitiful, but in fact, why wasn't his own family pitiful?

When Han Yue issued bonds to raise tens of millions of yuan, it almost emptied the property of the entire Datang people. Because the follow-up income could not be paid in time, many families broke up and lost their families.

Some died of freezing because they couldn't afford clothes, some died of illness and couldn't get medicine, and the most pitiful ones were those whose families ran out of food and watched their relatives emaciate and starve to death.

The taste of hunger cannot be experienced by future generations, but hunger is the greatest pain in the world, and the cruelty of starving to death cannot be described in words.

All the people gritted their teeth, everyone had anger on their faces, and the faces of the few Marquis Wu present were not good-looking, but due to their duties, they had to come out to comfort everyone.

"Fellow folks, forget it if you get angry. Now that His Highness has returned, all the bad guys in the entire court have been killed. Our lord has the people in his heart, and he will definitely repay everyone's debts."

The persuasion of the Fang officials was a bit more considerate than that of Marquis Wu, because the Fang officials themselves were selected from the people.

An older Fangguan coughed twice and scolded everyone: "Don't be stunned, just wash the ground and work quickly. The second Niu in the east of the city poured [-] buckets of water in an hour, and he was exempted for three years. After two years of corvée service, the family not only reduced the tax, but also got reward money, which is as much as the usual copper coins, which the clerk in the yamen personally handed over to Niu Lao and Second Hand. You guys are not having a good life, so take this opportunity Hurry up and earn more money?"

When they heard that they were exempted from corvée tax and that they could get rewards for doing more work, the anger of the people present calmed down a little, and they started to work again with their buckets in their hands.

They cleaned along the street all the way, and unknowingly worked for two or three hours. The long street had been cleaned, and a magnificent building group suddenly appeared in front of them.

All the people were a little stunned, and one of them suddenly grinned and scolded: "He is a mother and grandmother, why did you wash and wash to the Great Buddha Temple? I don't wash in this place, and I won't wash even if there are no more corvée."

A few people next to him nodded at the same time, gritted their teeth and said, "The Dafo Temple is too cruel, and the old man who has been implicated by money is impoverished. I don't wash this place. I have to let those bald people smell the blood for a few more days."

People are unhappy, it is obvious.These people suddenly turned their heads and left, not forgetting to spit at the Buddhist temple before leaving.

The Marquis Wu felt a little helpless, and quickly pulled the Fang Guan forward to bow and bow together, smiling apologetically: "Everyone, please help me, please bear with your temper and wash this place as well. This time it was an order from the upper head, and the whole No trace of blood can be left in Chang'an. It is said that it was ordered by the prince himself, saying that the preservation of blood will breed plague..."

The people present looked at each other, and everyone could see the reluctance on the other's face.The middle-aged man's eldest grandson suddenly roared, roaring like crazy: "Buddha temple, don't wash, don't wash, don't wash, ah, my little girl."

Tears flowed out of the roar, apparently thinking of going to a Buddhist temple to borrow money from Yinzi, and as a result, the whole family became more and more poor, and the youngest daughter starved to death in the cold winter.

A few people were afraid that he would go crazy and hurt themselves too much, so they rushed forward and hugged him hard.Marquis Wu and Fang Guan looked at each other, and suddenly shook their heads bitterly and sighed.

Under such circumstances, who still has the mind to urge the people to work?

They were all raised by their parents, and the Marquis of Wu were also from the common people. They were also unwilling to do so. If it wasn't for the order, they would not want to clean the Great Buddha Temple.

At this moment, a sharp-eyed commoner suddenly cried out in surprise, pointed to the street ahead and said, "Look at it, there are a lot of cavalry..."

Everyone was shocked and looked up quickly.

Several Marquis of Wu looked into the distance and said solemnly: "It's the military guards on the left and right, what are they doing here at the Great Buddha Temple?"

But seeing the cavalry surging on the street in the distance, at a rough glance, there are probably tens of thousands of people. These cavalry are followed by countless foot soldiers, hula-la circle and besieged the entire Great Buddha Temple.

The eyes of the Marquis Wu couldn't help flashing, and they quietly exchanged color with each other, one of them clicked his tongue twice, and said in a low voice: "Did you guys see this, this posture doesn't look like the handwriting of the court, but it's a bit like the three guards of the Western Mansion style, 2 to [-] people will directly surround the Dafo Temple, it’s not a good one tonight, I’m afraid it’s going to be done.”
