The whole capital persuaded me to remarry

Chapter 144 What's the Situation Outside?

Knowing that his sister had been waiting for news, Zhen Shirong quickly told her about the outside world.

"Yesterday, there were only a few hundred or so people, and none of them attracted the attention of the government, but today the number suddenly increased to several thousand at noon."

"They asked a down-and-out scholar to write a sincere letter of love, and everyone stamped their fingerprints on the back. A prestigious old man led the letter high, and thousands of people went to the government office together in a mighty manner. gone."

"When they arrived at the gate of the county government office, they alarmed the Lord Fu Yin before they beat the drum of grievances. The Lord Fu Yin sent all the servants to stop them, but they didn't stop them."

"You can't scold them, you can't drive them away. They sit quietly in front of the government office holding a letter of love, and they are very united."

"And they all brought their own dry food and water bags, and they sat until dark. Except for occasionally leaving the last hut, no one ever left."

Speaking of this, Zhen Shirong couldn't help being a little moved.

The cousin is just a stranger who has nothing to do with them, but they can work together to avenge the grievances for the cousin, which makes him feel that the common people are really a group of lovely people!
He secretly made up his mind that if he becomes an official in the future, he must be an upright official, a good official, he must love the people like his son, and live up to the bravery and righteousness of these people today!

Zhen Baoshu also felt yearning and excited when she heard it.

She asked eagerly, "Did Mr. Fu Yin enter the palace to meet the emperor? Did the emperor take any action?"

Zhen Shirong shook his head, "Master Fu Yin entered the palace in a hurry, but when he came back, he closed the gate of the government office and ignored the people outside. Presumably it was the emperor's intention to let him ignore the troublemakers and deal with them coldly. "

Zhen Baoshu was a little disappointed.

She comforted her elder brother, "It doesn't matter. Yesterday there were hundreds of people, today there are thousands of people, and tomorrow it may grow into tens of thousands! The total number of people in our capital is 12. If half of them protest that they can't kill their cousin, your majesty It should be considered."

Saying that the capital has a population of only 12 is not nonsense that Zhen Baoshu doesn't understand the situation in the capital.

If you add the nearby garrisons and all the people scattered outside the city, the total number of people in the capital is indeed more than 60, but there are indeed only 12 people living inside the city gate.

Zhen Shirong nodded, "I hope so."

If all the people stood up and the emperor still insisted on asking his cousin to pay for his life, then he could only collect the body of his cousin's family.

There really is no other way.

He rubbed his eyebrows, and told Zhen Baoshu about Yan Jiulan.

"Don't worry about him. Yesterday he carried King Ning on his horse and sent him to the palace. He was only reprimanded by the emperor, saying that he offended King Ning by looking at no one, and asked him to apologize to King Ning and let him go .”

"As for King Ning, I heard that the emperor has warned him that if he dares to make trouble with the prime minister's mansion, he will not be allowed to participate in the investigation process, and he will reflect in the mansion for half a year."

He laughed heartily, "The old guy doesn't dare to show off his power in front of daddy now, so you don't have to worry about daddy getting a disadvantage from him anymore."

After hearing this, Zhen Baoshu felt relieved.

It's good that brother Yan is fine, and it's good that father doesn't have to be bullied anymore.

Now, she just needs to wait patiently for the results of her mother's investigation.

"What about your second brother, why didn't you see him?"

"Don't mention it, my father punished my second brother to kneel in the ancestral hall yesterday. I don't know who told my grandfather about it. The old man asked his uncle to come and take the second brother to the Tang family early in the morning, saying that no one but him You can't bully the second brother, even my father."
