Chapter 281 Open the city gates to welcome the commander-in-chief; the commander-in-chief arrives and no more taxes are due.



"Lu Wentong, your most important task now is to get the money out of those people in the palace hall."

While eating grapes, Jiang Tian said, "We can have a public trial, just by setting up a high platform at the entrance of the palace hall."

“The entire city can see it. You can use whatever torture you want. Every word they say will become a knife to cut off their heads.”

"My lord, I understand."

"Go..."

"promise……"

"My lord, I will have the platform completed in two days."

"Also, you are cooperating with General Bai. Zhang Xianzhong is an exceptionally capable man. Since he is coming to attack my capital, there must be people who have infiltrated beforehand. Capture them and eliminate them."

"clear……"

Lu Wentong walked out of the study, and Jiang Tian glanced at Empress Qian Renxue: "Would you like to go out of the city for a stroll?"

“Okay…” Qian Renxue, this young girl, has been staying in the palace for many years and has not left the palace.

Qianrenxue is a canary trapped in the palace.

The young girl quickly ordered, "Liu Jin, prepare the sedan chair."

"Preparing a sedan chair doesn't count as strolling around; we'll definitely walk."

Qian Renxue nodded: "I'll go put on some makeup."

The young girl stood up, and two palace maids carried her dragon robe as they walked to the back.

After an incense stick has burned.

This little girl just got back.

Indeed, women spend far too much time putting on makeup before going shopping.

Jiang Tian looked at it.

Empress Qian Renxue is a young girl disguised as a man.

Surprisingly, this little girl actually looks like a handsome young man after dressing up as a boy.

"Why are you dressing up as a man? I don't want people to misunderstand that I have homosexual tendencies."

Qian Renxue pouted and said, "I'm a woman, do I need to wear women's clothes to show my face in public?"

"Of course."

"Alright, wait here a little longer." The young girl then led two more palace maids toward the bedchamber.

Another incense stick's time has passed.

Jiang Tian had been waiting for the girl to return for ages.

"Jiang Tian, ​​what do you think of this outfit?"

Qian Renxue spun around in front of Jiang Tian.

This little girl usually wears a dragon robe.

Even inside the palace, she wore men's clothes.

This little girl has never worn women's clothes before.

She found a palace maid's clothes and wore them.

The palace maid's clothes look rather mismatched.

"Never mind, I'll just change into men's clothes." Jiang Tian sighed.

Half an incense stick's time later, the little girl came skipping and jumping, clearly very happy.

The two walked side by side towards the outside of the palace.

A dozen or so eunuchs and palace maids followed quietly behind.

“Let them all go back. We’re going shopping. With so many eunuchs and palace maids following us, how can we understand the people’s plight?”

Qian Renxue: "These eunuchs and palace maids are all very skilled. I don't trust them with me."

"I can protect you. Besides, I have my Imperial Guards in the city."

The troops guarding the city have been replaced by Bai Qi's men; anyone who dares to cause trouble within the imperial city will be killed on the spot.

Qian Renxue turned around and waved to the eunuchs and palace maids: "You may leave now, do not follow us."

To Jiang Tian's surprise, as soon as they reached the palace gate, the young girl Qian Renxue was already panting and her pretty face was slightly flushed.

"What, are you already tired?"

The little girl nodded shyly; she had never walked that far before.

How can someone with this kind of physique go shopping?

"Chen Feilong, bring over two horses, no, just bring over my Black Jade Qilin."

Soon, Chen Feilong brought over the black jade unicorn.

Jiang Tian gently lifted Qian Renxue up in his arms.

This little girl is 1.72 meters tall and weighs only 90 kilograms.

Anyone under 100cm tall is either flat-chested or short.

Qian Renxue is not short, nor does she appear to have a flat chest.

That figure is amazing; it's definitely a gift from God.

Jiang Tian mounted his horse, and the two sat on the saddle. Jiang Tian embraced Qian Renxue from behind.

The two rode their horses at full gallop.

"Riding a swift horse in the spring breeze, one can see all the flowers of Tai'an in a single day."

The streets of the capital were indeed different, with skyscrapers standing side by side.

The streets were bustling with pedestrians.

In the eastern part of the city, the streets are bustling with shoppers.

Hu Jun and Ma Liangyong each led 2,000 men into the city.

"Our Commander Zhang said we'll take the city within three days."

"I don't think there are many garrison troops in the city. They are no match for Commander Zhang."

"We should turn the city upside down right now."

“Brothers, show me where there are the most people, where there are the most disaster victims.”

The eastern part of the capital city is a wealthy commercial district.

The western part of the capital was filled with low and cramped houses.

That's where the most people who don't have enough to eat gather.

A large portion of them are beggars.

Half an hour later.

West of the city.

Almost every street and alley was a gathering place for the poor.

Ma Liangyong and Hu Jun's men all dispersed.

"Have you heard? Commander Zhang Xianzhong has captured Beijing."

"Commander Zhang is exceptionally capable. As soon as he arrives, he can ensure that the brothers have enough to eat."

"Open the city gates to welcome the commander-in-chief; when the commander-in-chief arrives, no more taxes will be levied."

"Once Commander Zhang Xianzhong enters the city, those corrupt officials inside will surely die."
