The wealth of rebirth is deep in the mountains

Chapter 349
At first everyone thought that Li Dazhuang and others were foreign enemies, but now that Li Yong recognized them, they knew that he was a veteran of the Eastern Expedition Army, and he came here for the empress's sincere invitation, so they were not afraid anymore, and they all came from the big tree where they were hiding. And came out after the tea shed.

"These people are not bad people!"

"That's right, it sounds quite conscientious. No matter what the outcome of the court affairs is, if they can remember the goodness of the empress, it proves that they are not ungrateful."

"No, speaking of it, when the road guards were recruited, my natal brother wanted to go, but in the end he gave two wounded soldiers to the village. It's a pity for my family, but in order to protect our Dayuan, they sacrificed their lives We fought passionately, we can't fight, this is what people deserve."

"But the empress is also kind-hearted. In the past, there were many wounded soldiers. In the end, all of them starved to death at home. How can they have the current scenery. So, they should come to protect the empress now."

"That's it. It's too much for me to say those bad guys. The empress is forced to send away all the princes and princesses. The emperor only likes the queen, and there is nothing wrong with not wanting other little wives. Come on What happened to someone else?"

"That's not a hindrance, it's delaying others from prostitution."

Everyone chattered and talked, and they gradually stood in the united front with these wounded soldiers.

"Big brothers, it's good that you're here. At this time, I really have to support the empress."

"That is, we want to support the empress, but we don't know how to do it."

Li Yong was on the top of the wall, and he heard the people below say that, seeing that the team was about to expand again, sweat was dripping on his brow from anxiety.

Fortunately, he was not stupid, so after thinking about it, he said loudly, "Brothers, I know that you came here to thank your mother for her kindness, and to worry about her being framed by villains. But thousands of people like you surrounded the city gate , was misrepresented by someone with a heart, and I might sue you for gathering a crowd to make trouble, or even rebellion. If this continues, let alone supporting the empress, I am afraid that it will cause trouble for the empress. Why don't you stay away and take a rest. Boss Li, how many do you choose? Those who speak sharply, I will take you to the palace to ask for an audience. Now that the emperor and all the lords have not yet come to the court, if there is anything wrong, it is right to speak at the court."

What he said was reasonable, and he was standing on the side of the crowd and the empress. The crowd felt their hearts ache when they heard it, so they discussed in low voices for a long while. Li Dazhuang took a veteran who had lost his arm and his right leg and was on crutches. Enter the palace together.The rest retreated five miles to a small wood to enjoy the shade and wait.

The city gate opened a crack, Li Dazhuang and others went in, followed Li Yong into the carriage and rushed to the palace.

Those veterans were not fools, they had sent someone to sneak to the gate of the city to watch secretly, seeing that Li Dazhuang and others were not tied up, so they were relieved and ran to the woods to report.

Besides, Feng Ze was discussing matters with the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. After this month's arrangement, the victims of the disaster in several southern states have been properly resettled, and the relief provided by work has initially shown its power.

The rice grain that was also distributed has fed the victims, and the river embankment that broke the embankment is also being rapidly repaired.If it is in time, perhaps a crop of winter wheat can be planted in the disaster area after the flood.After this winter, at the beginning of spring, there will be grain harvest, and then you can breathe a sigh of relief.

With such a premise as a foundation, and no one is blind, they continued to risk their lives to ask the emperor to accept the concubine, and the atmosphere in the whole court was very harmonious.

But at this moment, a palace guard came in to report, "My Majesty, there is Li Yong, the guard of the Chaoyang Gate outside the gate of the palace, and three veterans from the Eastern Expedition are asking for an audience. There are still [-] veterans and civilians outside the city." Gather."

Speaking of the guard, this report was considered impartial, there was no malicious speculation, and there was no cover-up. It was rare and fair, but it still caused an uproar in the entire court.

"Bold, the capital is a major city, and people gathered around the city gates. Could it be that they want to rebel?"

This is the censor who watches the excitement and is not afraid of big things. He is afraid that others will take the lead and be the first to jump out to show his loyalty.The center is the main one. If someone wants to rebel, he must first step over the appearance of his corpse.

There were also honest and prudent people who asked, "Why are those people surrounding the city gate with weapons?"

The guard was originally a messenger, and he had never seen him at the city gate, so he was very embarrassed at the moment.

After all, Feng Ze waved his hand to signal everyone to shut up, and then ordered, "Xuan Li Yong and others enter the hall."

The guard kowtowed and retreated as if he had received an amnesty.

Soon, Li Yong, with an embarrassed face, walked into the court hall with three veterans.

That's all for Li Yong, he is tall and tall, with bright helmets and armor, he is very heroic, the civil servants can't fault it, and the generals nod in satisfaction.

But Li Dazhuang and the other three who followed behind were a little embarrassed.These days, rushing on the road, exposed to the wind and the sun, arrived outside the city gate, and went directly to the palace without drinking a sip of water. Of course, it was not much better.

Their clothes were stained with dust, and their armor was old and worn out. Li Dazhuang had two teeth cut out, and the other two, one had no arm, the other had a missing leg and a crutch, so of course they couldn't be called neat.

But the three of them were not cowardly at all when they followed behind Li Yong, they held their heads up high, as if this was not an imperial court, but a battlefield where they were free to roam freely.

Seeing this, even if some officials wanted to find fault, they glanced at them and shut their mouths.

Li Yong lifted his robe and was about to fall to his knees, but Li Dazhuang and the other three were faster than him. He knelt down and began to shout loudly, "Your majesty, handsome, the empress is wronged, the empress is a good person, you You can't let your mother be bullied."

The corners of the civil and military officials' eyes twitched, even though they had all kinds of thoughts, they were blocked by these words.

Li Dazhuang called the emperor first, which was in accordance with the etiquette, but the commander in the second sentence was playing the game of love.At the beginning of the Eastern Expedition, the emperor was still the prince, and he personally attacked Xiaoyao Island to avenge the former queen and the people of the East China Sea.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and an emperor cannot easily be suspected. However, as a son of man, avenging his mother, as an emperor, making decisions for the people, this is a responsibility and an honor.

Therefore, for the Eastern Expedition, it is the pride of the emperor.Even the history books should be recorded in a thick and colorful stroke.

Now, if Li Dazhuang yelled like this, if others wanted to reprimand him, it would be embarrassing to the emperor. After all, the emperor is the right lord, and no one is qualified to discipline his subordinates for him.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Feng Ze didn't have any anger on his face. Instead, he was a little bit dumbfounded, and waved his hands to signal, "Get up, I haven't seen you for many years, Li Datou, your voice is still quite loud."

Hearing this, Li Dazhuang immediately put away his grief and indignation, smiled and climbed up, and helped the lame and armless brothers, and he did not forget to introduce to the emperor, "Marshal, do you still remember that this man has no arms?" The one who is lame is Xiaoliu, and the one who is lame is Lao Zhang, who belonged to your personal guard at the beginning. They are not good at fighting, and they lost their hands and feet. When they returned home, you and your empress gave another sum of money."

Feng Ze nodded, obviously thinking of the two of them, the firm belief on the way to the east, the fierce battle, and the thrill of the mountain top, as if they were still in front of them.

"At the time when the Fire Worship Sect counterattacked, it was a life for another life. The little six and Lao Zhang were besieged and killed by four people, and in the end they only lost their hands and feet. They are really brave."

Xiao Liuzi and Lao Zhang heard the emperor remember it so clearly, they were so excited that they almost shed tears and wanted to kneel and kowtow again.

Feng Ze waved his hand, glanced at those civil and military officials with strange expressions, and asked, "I heard that you led people to surround the city gate, why do you want to rebel?"

If others listened to it, they would immediately kneel down and plead guilty, and they would pee their pants in fright.Li Dazhuang stared at him, shook his head, and shouted, "Marshal, don't listen to anyone's instigation, the brothers have followed you through life and death, and they didn't even blink for our Dayuan. Today's life is good Yes, it's too late for us to be happy, what kind of rebellion did we create!"

A few officials with selfish intentions obviously did not want to let go of such a good opportunity, so they bit the bullet and snatched the conversation, "Leading people around the city gate, is it not rebellion or what? Brave madman, sophistry!"

Feng Ze glanced at this person, then looked at Lu Qian, Lu Qian nodded lightly, indicating that he knew it well.This person was originally on the list of his investigation. The people from Huizhou in the south can be regarded as coming from a humble family, and the official reputation is also good.But that aristocratic family is inextricably linked to the Weiyuanhou's Mansion, and a certain granddaughter of the aristocratic family married into the Zhongshan Prince's Mansion...

Li Dazhuang dared to smile when he saw the emperor, so how could he be frightened by such words.He straightened his neck and looked the official who was speaking up and down several times, but at the end he turned around and wiped away his tears, "Master, the villain originally thought that you were the emperor, you must be impressive, at least not worse than when you were in the Eastern Expedition. I didn't expect to see you today. Be careful and feel sad. I feel wronged for you. You have a few words with the villain, but someone stops you. How can life be so unsatisfactory? Why don't you go home with the villain. Xiaoren Now that you have errands, wages, and a family, you don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and I will take good care of you."

"That's right, Marshal, my family's life is better, you can go to my house. We heard that the empress was wronged, but we didn't believe it. That's the empress, and you are by the empress's side. Who is so bold and dares to bully you?" Niangniang. But looking at it today, both Niangniang and you are having a hard time. The villain feels sad, and you are also wronged."

Little Liuzi also crawled along the pole, hitting his chest with the only remaining arm, as if he was about to faint from distress.

Lao Zhang also looked at the gold brick floor with his crutches, "Your Majesty, the villain will follow you through life and death. After losing his legs, he lies in the wounded barracks, and the porridge he drank was made by his mother himself. Now seeing you and your mother being wronged, my little one People can't wait to die. How come there are so many ungrateful things in the world, and the empress has done so many good deeds without seeing it, but what kind of disaster is it that someone is hanged and can frame the empress with a few words? That villain also Hanging, drowning, poisoning, whatever you want, just leave a few words and talk about the elders, ministers, and servants, isn't it true that the officials are also disaster stars, and they should go home to take care of their children!"
