Chapter 203 Qianzhou Chaos (Subscription Request)
Laughter from high in the sky.
Even on the streets miles away, one could still feel the earth shaking.
It made all the people kneel down more fanatically, kowtow more fanatically, and their eyes filled with tears more.
They would never dare to doubt such a powerful god.
Many people have decided that from now on, they will make a statue of the god and kneel down to worship the statue three times a day!
Only in this way can they show their piety to the gods who protect them.
After Lu Yuan landed, Li Qi and the ten generals, who had already hidden far away, moved the throne that they had moved away earlier back up.
Then the ten generals personally carried a huge table that was eight feet long to the high platform and placed it in front of the throne where Lu Yuan was sitting.
Then came nearly a hundred young maids, with stars in their eyes, carrying plate after plate of meat, vegetables, fruits and fine wine to the platform and placed them on the huge long table.
Lu Yuan looked at the long table that was soon filled with food and curled his lips.
He had already eaten his fill just now, and now they brought him so much more. Wasn't that too much of an honor to him?
He said to the pawns who were still kneeling on the ground:
"Get up!!"
Then he said to Li Qi and the ten generals beside him:
"You guys, come with me to share this delicious food and wine."
Amid the excited voices of thanks from everyone.
Tables were placed inside and outside the Overlord's Palace by the soldiers of the Tianxing Army.
Even the streets of Bazhou Prefecture were filled with tables.
The entire Bazhou Prefecture was still filled with the sounds of finger-guessing games and drinking until night.
Qianzhou.
capital.
The capital of Daqian remains as beautiful as ever.
But the streets were crowded with people.
The well-informed dignitaries and wealthy people have already learned that the army of hundreds of thousands led by the four great cavalry generals of the imperial court was defeated in Bazhou.
Even more than half of Daqian's pillars, the iron-clad and powerful army, were destroyed.
The four great cavalry generals were killed and the Daqian God of War was seriously injured.
All of this is because the Tianxing Army summoned ghosts and gods.
With the power of ghosts and gods, heavenly punishment was brought down, and the mortal army was simply unstoppable.
Soon, the Tianxing Army will attack Qianzhou with the power of ghosts and gods!
This news spread in panic in Qianzhou.
Especially those living in the capital of Daqian.
There are almost no poor people living in the capital.
Once the Tianxing Army breaks in, no one can guarantee that they will not kill them for wealth.
Not to mention, almost half of the officials in the capital of Daqian are corrupt and wealthy.
Once these people fall into the hands of the Tianxing Army, they will all lose their heads.
The people on the streets were all carrying their families, young and old, and all the necessary food and supplies, trying to escape from the capital.
But they were all stopped at the city gate by the imperial soldiers guarding the city.
Even if there are high-ranking officials or wealthy people who have private soldiers at home, they will still try to break down the city gates.
They were all killed by the defenders at the city gate.
The people in the capital were unable to leave the city and were afraid of the incoming Tianxing Army, so they gathered in the streets in a hurry.
Even the number of street vendors has decreased a lot.
Only in those brothels, more and more people spend money like water, revel every night, and live a life of drunkenness and dreams.
A place in the capital.
The Duke's Mansion. The Duke's Mansion, besides being a gift from the previous emperor, has a large area.
In fact, it doesn’t look that luxurious.
The paint had fallen off in many places, and there was no repair work.
There are not many guards standing guard at the door now.
At the gate, Xia Qingyu stood in front of the door and looked at Xia Yuan on the street.
At this time, Xia Yuan was arguing with someone until his face turned red.
He grabbed a mustachioed man who was carrying a large package on his back and was about to run towards the city gate, and pulled him hard.
The cloth wrapped around the man was torn to pieces by Xia Yuan with a "swish".
“Bang bang bang~!!”
Gold, jade and valuables leaked out from the cloth package.
Large bills flew out.
Gold bars and gold bricks hit the ground with a clanging sound.
Even several exquisite jade pieces were smashed to pieces.
Looking at the things on the ground, Xia Yuan suddenly became furious.
He grabbed the man's clothes by his shoulders and shouted angrily:
"Chen Wu!! How can you, a mere sixth-rank editor, have so much money!! How dare you call yourself a clean official!!"
The streets were crowded with people. The sound of jade and gold objects falling to the ground, as well as Xia Yuan's loud shout, naturally attracted the attention of many people.
However, when the people on the street saw those gold and jade objects, no one showed greed and rushed to grab these things.
He even moved away with fear on his face, fearing that he might be involved in these things.
Now the imperial court has even defeated its powerful armored army. If the Tianxing Army really breaks in, these things will be death spells. Who would dare to touch them?
After many people around him retreated, Chen Wu, whose clothes were grabbed by Xia Yuan, used his hands to block the other person's hands grabbing his clothes, and went to pick up the gold and jade on the ground, shouting as he picked them up:
"Xia Yuan!! How many of you so-called clean officials have less money than me?
How can one be clean as an official in Daqian?
Why are you still so childish! ! "
He picked up the gold bars, gold bricks and silver bills on the ground one by one and wrapped them in his clothes.
All these gold, jade and money were accumulated when he was an official.
If you want to be an official, it is impossible not to deal with money. This money is like coming to you and giving it to you.
Xia Yuan didn't know about these things.
Because the other party is not an official! !
Officials like them joined the Qingliu just to squeeze out those who were more corrupt, so that they could climb to higher positions, accumulate more money, and reach the real high position.
But now, even the iron pillars can't hold up. If the Tianxing Army is allowed to break in, according to the policy set by the White Snake King in the past, a man with such wealth as him will never survive.
Even if he threw away the money, it would be useless!
These are easy to check!!
In order to save their lives, more people will report him!
If he doesn't escape, he will die! !
Now with this money, maybe I can use some connections to get the people guarding the city to let me out.
Only in this way can you survive!!
Looking at the guy who was picking up gold and jade on the ground and yelling back at him, the guy he once thought was the backbone of the Qingliu, Xia Yuan was stunned and speechless for a moment.
He regarded those who joined the Qingliu as his confidants, as like-minded people who would not hesitate to sacrifice their lives just to change Daqian and to fight for peace and food for the people of the world.
Now, reality has given a hard slap in the face.
Destroy what he had always believed in.
The so-called clean officials, the so-called memorials to the emperor, and the reports on corrupt officials were all done for the purpose of amassing wealth!
What he regarded as the last innocence and pride of Daqian, and as the clear stream of hope for a strong army and a strong country, turned out to be like this?
This made Xia Yuan stunned on the spot, and he didn't even come to his senses when Chen Wu left with the valuables.
