Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 71, Refugees

At the entrance of the west gate of Beijing, many refugees gathered together, wearing thin clothes, shivering in the cold wind, looking at the tall city gate from time to time. Inside is another world, and at the same time they are very scared. Looking at the guard at the gate of the city, he only hated himself for not having wings.

The guards at the gate of the city were also very nervous. These hundreds of hooligans were crowded at the gate of the city. When they looked at it, the whole place was covered in darkness.

These hooligans were carrying big bags and small bags one by one, dressed in rags, skinny as sticks, with bright eyes, and the words "vagrants" were almost written on their faces.

Normally, in one or two cases, these guards would turn a blind eye and let them in, but now, with hundreds of people crowding over at once, these guards would never let anyone in.

If the higher-ups blamed them, it would be a trivial matter to lose their jobs. If these hooligans make more troubles, they might even be beheaded.

You must know that once a person is in a desperate situation, he can do anything. Stealing and robbery are nothing. Those who entered the city, not to mention hundreds of people at once.

"Back~ Back off, let me disperse all of you, otherwise, I will arrest you one by one."

At the gate of the city, the guards guarded the gate of the city, and at the same time began to drive these refugees away.

Looking at the shining weapons of the guards, these refugees were also very frightened. They didn't dare to approach the gate of the city easily, but they didn't really disperse. Just quietly looking at the tall city wall, trying to see the prosperity of Beijing through the city gate.

"what happened?"

The car doors of Emperor Hongzhi and his party stopped at the gate of the city, and Emperor Hongzhi hurriedly asked Xiao Jing.

"Your Majesty, wait a moment, I'll go over and ask."

Xiao Jing didn't dare to be negligent, he hurried to the guard at the gate of the city, showed a sign, the other party immediately became extremely respectful, and truthfully told everything that happened here.

"Return to Your Majesty, I have already asked clearly just now, there are hundreds of refugees gathered here at the gate of the city, no matter how the guards drive them away, they will not disperse."

"Your Majesty, let's go back to the palace. If these refugees collide with the holy driver, then I will die."

Xiao Jing came to the side of Emperor Hongzhi's carriage, and replied very respectfully.

"Hundreds of refugees?"

Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang were all startled when they heard this.

It's not that they don't know about refugees coming to Beijing this winter. Every winter, there will be more or less refugees coming to Beijing, but they didn't expect that there are hundreds of refugees gathered here just at the gate of Xibianmen. This number is a bit scary.

"I'll go and have a look~"

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't sit still anymore, walked out of the carriage, came to the gate of the city under the strict protection of the guards, and looked at the dark mass of refugees in front of him, the mood of Emperor Hongzhi who had just recovered soon disappeared completely.

These refugees were all dressed in thin and very tattered clothes, unkempt, skinny, shivering when the cold wind blew, and seemed to be on the verge of falling, with protruding eyes that glowed with hunger.

These refugees are old and young, the old ones have gray hair, and the young ones are just a baby, still in the swaddle, at this time because of hunger, crying non-stop, because the baby's mother has no food, no nutrition, There was no milk to feed the baby at all, so he could only coax him non-stop, with despair in his eyes.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Emperor Hongzhi's eyes were full of tears. Compared with the Yaomei who met at the entrance of the Xishan Coal Shop, these children among the refugees in front of him had a harder life. Can they survive this dynamic city? It's hard to say.

"Xiao Jing, send someone to buy some food and give them a full meal."

Emperor Hongzhi quickly returned to the carriage, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said to Xiao Jing after thinking about it.

"Yes~" Xiao Jing replied respectfully, then thought for a while and asked again: "Then shall we still go to Xishan?"

"Go, of course."

Emperor Hongzhi was in a bad mood. The moment he saw these refugees, he knew that he had actually failed as an emperor. What is Hong Zhongxing, what is comparable to Tang Zong and Song Zu? It's just a fart. If you ask these refugees, they will probably point to their noses and call themselves the dog emperor.

Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang also saw that Emperor Hongzhi was in a bad mood, and they were silent all the way. The refugee problem was nothing to them. It happened every winter in all dynasties. .

Let people organize to give porridge, and then let the guards disperse them and nothing will happen. How can these refugees turn back? As soon as spring comes and the weather warms up, these refugees will naturally disappear.

Everyone came to Xishan in silence all the way. After coming to Xishan, Emperor Hongzhi felt a little better, because the whole Xishan was very busy and a thriving scene.

Soon, Emperor Hongzhi found Liu Jin. At this time, Liu Jin was designing a four-wheeled carriage. There was always something missing. There were detailed four-wheeled carriage tutorials in the system, but Liu Jin was reluctant to score points, so he also wanted to Relying on the little knowledge I learned in later generations, I want to find out.

"Mr. Zhu is here, it seems that he is not in a good mood?"

When Emperor Hongzhi and his party arrived, Liu Jin also behaved very normally. Anyway, since you don't disclose your identity, I will treat you as an ordinary person, lest I have to kneel and kneel, and pay attention to my wording.

Looking at Emperor Hongzhi's dark face, Liu Jin also knew that Emperor Hongzhi should not be in a good mood.

"Well, I'm really in a bad mood. When I just left the gate of the city, I saw a lot of refugees. These refugees are all too miserable. There is a baby who is crying because of hunger..."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Liu Jin, and didn't know why. He suddenly felt that Liu Jin might have a way to help these refugees, so he also said what he saw, and couldn't help but choked up when he said it later up.

He is the emperor, so he is able to help these hundreds of refugees through this winter, but he is the emperor of the whole world, and the things he considers are also related to the entire Ming Dynasty. After helping these hundreds of refugees, there are more people in the world. what should i do
"This is easy to handle. We can use work as relief. I'm going to discuss this with you~"

When Liu Jin heard it, he thought it was something, and said it almost without thinking.
