Chapter 411 (1/2)
The March representing public opinion came quietly, but it was huge and turbulent.
If there is no one behind the scenes to promote, Xia Xiaochan will never believe it.
Xia Xiaochan was silent for a moment. She looked at the servant girl Xiaotao around her and said, ”go and find out what's going on outside.”
Xiaotao answered and retreated silently.
For this time's request to stop the princess's parade, the servant girls around Xia Xiaochan were worried. They were afraid to go out because they knew that something big had happened. They just worked carefully and waited for Xia Xiaochan to make up their mind.
After comforting Xia Xiaochan for a moment, aoxingyu has taken his staff to the study for discussion. This matter will never happen by chance, but he doesn't know what the ultimate goal of the people behind the scenes is.
A moment later, Xiaotao came back and said, ”madam, there are at least thousands of civilians outside. These people are dressed in rags and surround several entrance and exit gates of the palace.”
Xia Xiaochan nodded and said, ”what's the matter with Mr. Tang? Can the signal go out?”
”Don't worry, it's already spread.”
If this incident is not handled properly, it may cause civil unrest and arouse public anger.
Once it is in chaos, it will undoubtedly be a great blow to a well-developed area in Beidi.
Only when public security is stable will these businessmen come to Beidi to do business, and even many people settle in Beidi. Don't they like the strong army and stable life in Beidi?
Therefore, the primary purpose at present is to persuade people back.
It was hard to wait. Aoxingyu sent someone out through the back door. The crowd surrounded by the back door rushed to entangle with the people in the palace. Aoxingyu's killing intention flashed in his eyes. The bodyguard waved cold glittering weapons and looked coldly at the civilians below.
”Let's all let go. How many things have the prince and Princess done for the north? Can the north be so rich without the prince and princess? There are basically no people freezing to death in the winter in the north. Everyone has enough to eat, wear warm clothes and have a good day. However, they come to the palace to make trouble? Aren't you afraid of hurting the prince and princess?”
These words made the crowd whisper, and a sharp voice shouted in the crowd, ”Of course, we know the Lord's good. Just for the Lord's good, we can't let that vulgar peasant girl rely on the Lord. We can't let this unfaithful, unfilial, vulgar and immoral woman occupy the LORD all the time because of a little kindness. For the Lord's happiness, we must let this woman go to court today. A man like a God, how can he deserve a noble woman , such a woman doesn't deserve the Lord at all. ”
A speech for the good of the LORD was right for most of the agitated people.
”You folks, for the sake of a good life in the north and peace in the north, you can't let such an immoral and vulgar woman stay with the Lord. What's the qualification of such a woman to stay with the Lord? She doesn't know words, knows no mother, and has no love and righteousness. Such a dog should rush out of the hall quickly. If you let her stay with the Lord, If she often blows some heartless and immoral pillow breeze to the Lord, it will be a disaster in our north. ”
”Yes, yes, these words are well said and reasonable. If the village woman incites the king, will it bring disaster to the north?”
”Princess Zhongyi, get out of the Zhongyi palace and get out of the north. The North doesn't welcome you!”
”Ruthless and unfilial peasant girl, get out of the king's side!”
……
Abusive voices broke out one after another, and the people's mood was adjusted again.
Aoxingyu stood in the crowd and looked at these people. His heart was very cold.
These people are doing things that force him and make him unhappy. They don't know how to be grateful. It's really disappointing.
At Xia Xiaochan's suggestion, the tax is more for businessmen and 30% less for civilians than usual.
