Chapter 180: Edict Of The Supreme Immortal Dynasty, The Real Dragon Who Reversed The World, And The
Shuntian Mansion, Beiping City.
There is a lot of snow around, and it looks very depressed and cold!
There seemed to be no people on the bustling and bustling street, and most of the families moved south with their families to flee.
The remaining poor families, relying on oil lamps and coal cakes, are struggling to live in this cold winter!
Wealthy families also lamented, although they can still maintain their daily needs, they are also devastated by the snowstorm!
In the suburbs, the cold wind is biting, and the biting cold wind seems to be able to cut people's skin!
Although many poor people and refugees received help from the imperial court, many people still froze to death in this unprecedented snow disaster!
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty outside the city had been transporting corpses that had been frozen stiff and blackened one after another to the barren hills.
Those soldiers were also pale and trembling, and the cotton clothes on their bodies seemed to be unable to resist this picture!
The big river outside the city was also completely frozen, which made it impossible for coal cakes and grain in the south to be transported to Shuntian Mansion through the canal, which made the disaster even worse!
There are people affected by the disaster everywhere. Although they have new residences, the shortage of food and heating supplies is still taking their lives away!
Wails are everywhere, like purgatory on earth!
Moreover, many wealthy businessmen colluded with the remnants of Beiyuan, hoarded grain, maliciously raised the price of grain, and distributed this national calamity full of human blood.
Such a bad act of oppressing the people at the bottom directly led to the starvation of many poor people.
There are even rumors among the people that this is because Daming launched wars repeatedly, which is a tyrannical act and offended the heavens. This heavy snow disaster is the punishment given to Daming by the heavens!
Many people who were affected by the disaster even believed it, screaming to let Daming return their original homes, as well as those relatives and friends who died in the heavy snow!
For a while, the people mourned, and their grievances became more and more boiling.
But at such a time of despair, a new notice was posted in front of the government office in the city!
The people were curious, and they all stepped forward to investigate!
"Tomorrow, the snow disaster will be lifted on 30, the canal will be dredged, and food will be transported to Shuntian Mansion?"
"The ice on the river is three feet thick, how can it be dredged?"
"Where does this heavy snow look like it's about to end? Could it be possible to control natural disasters?"
"In order to appease the hearts of the people, releasing such lies will only damage the prestige of the imperial court even more!"
Seeing this unrealistic notice, many people did not believe it!
After all, how can such a severe snow disaster be lifted as soon as it is lifted? It depends on God's will?
"Then... what if it's true?"
"Yes, what if the snow disaster can really be resolved?"
There are also some people who have no idea in their hearts, but they still hold some hope!
"Is your brain frozen by the weather? How can this snow disaster be resolved with a single sentence!" A grain merchant in mink fur scolded contemptuously.
"Hey, if the weather gets colder in another two months, what should we do!"
"The collusion of these grain merchants is eating people, and sooner or later they will suffer retribution!"
"I curse them to die!"
The common people hold their own opinions, but most of them are not hopeful, and many people have hatred for these profiteers in their hearts!
But they didn't buy or sell by force, and everyone had nothing to do with them, they could only let them be arrogant and domineering!
Many people looked up at the gray sky, cursing in their hearts!
This horrible weather, this snow doesn't seem to want to stop for a moment, it really kills people!
It would be fine if the snow disaster can be resolved as stated in the notice, but if not, then they will have a hard time this winter!
And after receiving this message,
Those old nobles of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and the grain merchants colluding with each other were also suspicious, and they couldn't imagine what the imperial court was trying to do with this operation!
What should the imperial court do in order to completely resolve this snow disaster tomorrow?
This heavy snow looks like it is still continuous, this is impossible!
In a private room of a restaurant, a group of rich people are sitting around!
They are the major grain merchants in the city, and now they are all earning a lot of money, so rich!
"Hahaha, if the court puts down such nonsense, it will definitely screw things up!"
The greasy middle-aged man with a big belly laughed.
"That's right, this natural disaster can be resolved as soon as it is said to be resolved. If it is true, then it will be a god!" A rich old man beside him also echoed with a smile.
"Just wait for the court to make a fool of himself tomorrow, and if we don't do it well, let's see if these untouchables don't eat them!" A grain merchant with gloomy eyes said contemptuously.
A grain merchant in a gold silk padded suit said: "Master Qian, as long as the imperial government fails to rescue the disaster this time, and the untouchables are bound to riot under our urging, now we control more than 90% of the grain in dozens of important towns in the north. As long as food prices are further raised, it is bound to trigger riots among these victims.”
Hearing this, an old man with a dignified face said with a gloomy face: "That idiot, Tuoyin Timur, knows how to use brute force to make a fuss, and fight against Da Ming head-on, unlike us, who use the rules, even if Even the emperor can't move us.
"As long as it succeeds, if we donate part of the disaster relief at that time, we may be able to get rewards and titles, and we businessmen will not be inferior to others!"
When the old man said this, there was incomparable excitement in his eyes, and his whole body was trembling.
His endless desire for power shot out like a substance, which made everyone present excited.
Yes, as long as this plan can be successfully implemented, this group of people can directly step into the power class.
Even if you fail, you can get a lot of wealth and pick yourself out
A group of people were full of anticipation when they heard this!
Power is like a slow addictive poison, once you taste it once, you can't stop!
Even knowing the might of the Ming army today, it can't stop the greed in their hearts from growing!
The headed old man waved his hand and said: "Let's go, everything is going according to plan, just increase the food price steadily, don't show up and cause unnecessary troubles.
"Yes, Mr. Qian!"
A group of people agreed, and then left the restaurant one after another...
The notice spread rapidly among the cities in the northern border of the Ming Dynasty, and everyone knew the news in a short while!
Everyone is talking, waiting for the slow passage of time!
After sunset, the cold wind howled all night!
The dawn of the morning finally descended on this land covered by heavy snow and ice!
Shuntian Mansion.
As the sun rises, countless disaster-stricken people gather in the city, and everyone is waiting for what the government will do!
After all, they posted a notice saying that the snow disaster will be completely resolved today!
Although the vast majority of people do not have hope, but the longing for life deep in their hearts made them all come here!
After all, if this snow disaster can really be resolved, they will be reborn!
But they haven't seen half of the government servants appear yet, and everything is quiet.
"Hehe, I knew it was just nonsense, but we still believe it, how ridiculous!"
"If you can solve it, why don't the government come forward sooner?"
"This is simply demagogic!"
Some servants of grain merchants in the crowd pretended to be disaster victims, complaining constantly in the crowd, stimulating the nerves of every disaster victim!
But at this moment, the gate of the government office suddenly opened!
The magistrate walked out, the magistrate who was originally full of sorrow, today had a smile on his face!
The magistrate walked up to the crowd and announced loudly: "Today, the snow disaster is raging, and the Ming Dynasty sent hundreds of thousands of troops to help the victims build houses to withstand the severe cold!
"However, some people make a lot of money when the country is in trouble, and the price of food remains high, and countless people starve to death and freeze to death!"
"But today, all conspiracies will be shattered, the damage from the snow disaster will be completely lifted, and our lives will be full of vigor and vitality again!"
Hearing these impassioned words, the fire in everyone's heart was ignited!
The atmosphere of extreme sadness and despair that has been suppressed in the hearts of countless people these days has gradually disappeared!
Because they saw the hope of living!
The people know that Zhifu is a good official, he can't deceive himself and the people of Shuntian Mansion in front of everyone!
"Master Zhifu, how should this snowstorm be resolved?"
"Yes, magistrate, as long as you say a word, we will do anything!"
"Yes, just say what you need, we will do our best to complete it!"
The people all responded excitedly, and their emotions were mobilized one after another!
In their eyes, the prefect in front of them is the only hope to save their lives, this is the parent officer!
But the prefect smiled and waved his hands and said: "We don't need to do anything, just wait! Because my Princess Baoqing of Daming will come to our Shuntian Mansion today!"
Hearing this, all the disaster victims exploded!
Princess Baoqing actually wants to come to Shuntian Mansion for disaster relief in person?
You must know that she is rumored to be a great existence who possesses supreme divine power and can easily resolve natural disasters!
The hope in everyone's hearts was magnified countless times in an instant, and their eyes lit up!
If Princess Baoqing can really relieve the snow disaster, she will be their savior!
In the days to come, they will believe in Princess Baoqing as a god, and follow Daming loyally forever!
The desertedness in Shuntian Mansion became very noisy during this period. The victims seemed to have forgotten the cold in the air and the hunger in their stomachs, and there were many discussions.
The victims were chattering about Princess Baoqing, wondering what kind of person she was!
Are those rumors true? Could it be that she was really that god who came into the world?
"Princess Baoqing! Princess Baoqing!"
Shocking shouts erupted from the crowd of the victims, the emotions were passionate and enthusiastic!
Everyone is eagerly looking forward to the arrival of Princess Baoqing, very excited and excited!
And those Beiyuan Grain Merchants Group hiding in the dark couldn't help but beat their hearts when they heard the news!
They have also heard about Princess Baoqing's deeds, and there is even amazing news such as bestowing the secret method of cultivating immortals!
But looking at the falling white snow, they still couldn't believe it!
After all, manpower cannot shake God, and this natural disaster is beyond the control of a human dynasty!
So all of this is nonsense, and it is impossible to relieve the heavy snow disaster!
And the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!
At that time, as long as Princess Baoqing fails to relieve the natural disaster, the long-standing public grievances will erupt in a terrifying way!
At that time, the tens of millions of disaster victims in the northern border of the Ming Dynasty will be a powder keg that is about to be ignited, and it will explode immediately with just a little stirring!
At that time, Daming will fall into chaos.
These Beiyuan remnants who regard human life as nothing and are infinitely obsessed with money and power are like hungry wolves who are extremely hungry, ready to bite Daming fiercely in the dark at any time!
As long as there are enough interests, they are the biggest lunatics!
A huge desire almost insane began to spread crazily in their hearts
outside the city,
A huge bronze carriage, leaving deep drag marks in the heavy snow, galloped towards Shuntian Mansion!
The person pulling the cart is His Royal Highness King Yan of Ming Dynasty——Zhu Di!
Originally, little Lolita didn't want to bother fourth uncle, let him pull the bronze carriage all the way and brave the snow for thousands of miles!
But Zhu Di demanded that he must follow and volunteered to be the mule pulling the cart, so there was no way to refuse!
Zhu Di naturally didn't want to miss every miracle, after all there might be some treasures!
He is also very happy to be the driver of this trailer!
"Ninny, we will arrive at Dashuntian Mansion soon!"
Zhu Di was still sweating on his head, and the biting cold weather didn't affect him at all!
"Fourth Uncle, do you have a tendency to abuse yourself?"
The little loli in the car was eating the pastry in her hand when she suddenly said something.
Hearing this, Zhu Di didn't agree, and it didn't matter if he didn't agree. After all, he couldn't just say that he came here to get benefits, right?
Zhu Di blushed, scratched his head and said, "Self-torture is not enough, Fourth Uncle is doing it for the people of Ming Dynasty!"
"Oh, my daughter thought that my fourth uncle liked to abuse you. If you have this habit, there is something here that can help you."
Little Loli stuck out her tongue and said.
But upon hearing this, Zhu Di's heart suddenly rose!
Then he asked, "What?"
The little loli smiled slightly and said, "Hit the magic whip! It will definitely be very refreshing to hit the soul directly with the whip, why don't you give it a try, fourth uncle?"
Although Zhu Di's scalp felt numb when he heard the words "beating the magic whip", he still gritted his teeth and continued to ask, "Does hitting with this thing have any special effects?"
"Using it to whip can strengthen your soul. Now, fourth uncle, you focus on body training. This whip can strengthen your soul. It will get twice the result with half the effort!"
Little Lolita also continued.
Hearing this, Zhu Di immediately moved his heart!
As long as it can make him stronger, he is willing to accept anything!
"Then... let's taste the taste first?"
Zhu Di tried to ask.
Snapped!
With a clear and loud noise, a golden whip suddenly appeared beside Zhu Di, and he swung it down violently!
Zhu Di cried out in pain,
Immediately swept the entire Shuntian Mansion!.
