C202 (2/2)

When he threw the first and second bags, he immediately shouted and snatched it away. Jin Xiaolou quickly replied, ”No need to snatch it, everyone has it!”

She kept her word. Half of the food in the capital had already been taken away by her. It was enough for the refugees below to have two bags each.

The people who received the sack opened it in panic. When they saw the white rice inside, tears and snot almost flowed out. Many of them even knelt down and kowtowed toward the people on the walls.

He felt that those above were all sent by the gods to save their lives.

”After everyone has eaten their fill, head east for a mile. There is a Spirit Water Village! If you trust me, then you can just wait there. Not only will you not bring everyone here to become rich, you will definitely be able to fill your stomachs! ”

Jin Xiaolou still remembered that when the Linlang Workshop was about to crumble, Xia Gu had bought a lot of fields and livestock in the Spirit Water Village, so it was just right for her to borrow them now.

After Jin Xiaolou finished speaking, the refugees carrying sacks all replied, ”Lady Xian! Since you have saved our lives, we will naturally trust you! ”

Lv Yun looked at the grateful faces of the people below him and felt touched herself. She shouted at the top of his lungs: ”Our shopkeeper's name is Jin Xiaolou! Just call her Boss Jin! ”

More voices came from below, ”Boss Jin, let's go!” ”Boss Jin, no matter how long it takes, you will always be waiting!” Boss Jin, we will go wherever you want us to go! ”

Looking at the thousands of refugees gathered in front of the city gate, who left in a flash, the soldier was shocked. This Boss Jin was really powerful! No wonder it could make the business so big!

”Open the gates!” The leader of the soldiers stood on the wall and shouted.

The pouring rain shrouded the entire capital in a thick layer of water vapor. A bolt of purple lightning streaked across the sky, and with a kacha sound, the dark sky turned bright.

In the imperial court, most of the officials kneeling on the floor were trembling in fear at the sudden noise.

Wind gushed into the hall from outside, blowing against the bead curtain in front of Empress Dowager Gao. The eunuch attending to his side hurried forward to protect him. However, Empress Dowager Gao spoke out straightforwardly, ”If you have something to say, do it. If you have nothing to do, leave the court. ”It's raining heavily, so let's all return early.”

With that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

The new emperor was submissive, but just as he was about to stand up, someone shouted from below, ”May the empress dowager return to the throne and his Majesty!”

Empress Dowager Gao raised her eyebrows, and the eunuch by his side shouted: ”Impudent!”

The people below were neither humble nor haughty. ”The imperial court is the court of the Zhao family with the Great Zhou. This world is also the emperor's world. For the sake of the Great Zhou, this subject has risked my life to advise you, hoping that the empress dowager will find a way back! ”

”Since you know you are risking your life, what else can you say?” Empress Dowager Gao did not even blink, ”Drag him down and kill him.”

”Yes.” The eunuchs on both sides immediately went forward, dragging the old official below them by the arm as they walked out of the hall.

With this, a large number of people in the great hall kneeled down.

The old official was the Minister of the Civil Service. He had worked in the field for half his life and was about to return home in glory, yet he lost his life in this way.

”Empress Dowager, think twice!” Another person shouted, ”It's against the rules for the empress dowager to act in such a way. The rules are the foundation of the nation, so empress dowager …”

Before that person could finish speaking, Empress Dowager Gao coldly spoke out: ”What, do you also want to accompany the Minister of the Government?”

”This, this …” The people below did not dare to say anything more.

After a while, most of the officials in the hall took off their black muslin hats. ”If the empress dowager is going to do this, then we'll have to use that as an excuse.”

”Her Majesty is the dictator. Her Majesty is young, and Prince Xian can only rely on you to take charge of the situation now!”

Thus, Prince Xian stood up, and just as he took a step forward, he still calmly spoke, and said word by word: ”Are all of you planning to kill the monarch and rebel?”

As soon as the words ”King Slaughterer and Rebellion” came out of his mouth, the New Emperor's legs on the Dragon Throne went limp, and he actually fell straight onto the ground.
