Chapter 145: Ancient people across the country rioted and envied the plague city



The victims were filled with envy: "Oh my God, are these the people in Plague City? They are so lucky to receive so many things in a month."

"Sir, can we go get it too?"

"We also want to work in exchange for food..."

The soldier replied solemnly: "As long as the people have worked hard, they can receive it."

"Sir, my husband has passed away. I, I can also work. I beg you for your sake..." The woman who came over cried and was about to kneel down.

Seeing the woman about to kneel, the soldier quickly stepped back and said, "Girl, you don't have to kneel to me! Women can also work, cook, and do things within their ability."

"Whether you are a woman or cannot do heavy work due to physical reasons, as long as you want to work, we will definitely arrange the most suitable tasks for you, so don't worry about not being able to do these tasks."

"good!!!"

The victims applauded.

The woman was so moved that she burst into tears. She had never imagined that there was a place that would treat women so kindly.

Women can also work for food and be respected!

In addition, the people immediately asked about the military service: "Sir, are the benefits of being a soldier really that good?"

"Sir, can women also serve in the army? Are there no additional requirements?"

"Even if a soldier dies on the battlefield, can his family rest assured? Can his children still go to school for free?"

The soldiers answered every question asked by the crowd, which made the people of Liujiang City envy the people of Plague City.

Oh my god!

The people of Plague City are so happy!

Fortunately, they chose to follow the eldest princess to the Plague City instead of the imperial court.

If the imperial court recruited soldiers, most of them were forced to do hard labor without any wages.

"Wow, the princess was right. Plague City really has no worries about food and clothing."

"When I saw the female soldiers, I thought it would be great if I could become a woman like them one day. I didn't expect that being a soldier would have such benefits. I also want to be a female guard."

"As long as I join the army, my son can go to school! I want to join the army!"

"The goddess said that men and women are equal. We can't just think about sons. Daughters can also go to school. Whoever studies well should be sent to school!"

"That's right, if we want to live a life as happy as those in the afterlife, our thoughts should be closer to those of the afterlife! Let's go sign up!"

Everyone was so excited that they shed tears and rushed to sign up for military service.

If nothing else, just so that their children can go to school for free is enough for them to fight hard for a future for their children.

Just when the Plague City was in full swing in building schools and other buildings.

The news about the various benefits of Plague City spread to various cities.

Whether it was the court officials or the common people and merchants in various cities, they were all shocked and took a long time to recover when they heard this shocking news.

The people of each city were filled with disbelief: "Oh my God, what's going on in Plague City now? In the past, everyone envied the Jiangnan water towns and the capital, but now, the situation has changed."

"A place as remote and poor as Plague City can actually be envied by others."

"Aren't you envious or jealous?"

"It seems that the princess really wants to fight the imperial court. I have a feeling that Plague City will be comparable to Jiangnan in the future. Hehe, I will open a few inns there first. If the princess wins, Plague City will be in great shape."

Many people had this idea, and merchants from all over the Central Plains smelled the plague and rushed to the plague city.

They all want to do business here before the Plague City develops.

If Plague City wants to develop, it needs not only manpower and agriculture, but also economic development, but not all merchants can accept it completely.

The eldest princess set a time to meet these merchants in person, selected merchants with qualified character to settle in, and told them the rules of the plague city.

When news of free enrollment and various benefits for new recruits spread to the capital, the people of the capital were once again dissatisfied!

Yes, they quit!

Why is a plague city in a remote and poor area better than the capital?

In the past, they lived cautiously in the capital, in front of dignitaries. Although they might be beheaded if they were not careful, they were always jealous of the people outside for being in the capital.

They will be very proud and feel very superior!

Although there is a risk of offending nobles, once their identity as people from the capital is made public, people from other places will look at them with admiration.

But now, their only pride is gone.

They were also restricted by the imperial court and could not approach within 100 meters of the imperial palace, otherwise they would be beheaded!

That is clearly a gift from God, a live broadcast given by the goddess, why should the court be in charge of it!

They don't accept it!

The people went to the yamen in groups, shouting, expressing their anger and crying sadly. They beat drums outside the yamen to appeal for justice, hoping that the county magistrate would listen to the people's voices.

"Sir, my husband and my son both died on the battlefield. They died so unjustly! They left me, a woman, with no children to take care of me in my old age. How am I going to live in the future?"

"Sir, my husband died while serving his country. Why is your court so cruel and unwilling to give any compensation?"

"Soldiers in Plague City all have a place to go to school for free. Why can't the imperial court allow people to go to school for free?"

"Yes, we have no harvest this year! Look at Plague City. Not only do they not charge high taxes, but they can also get so much food for working. We have nothing!"

“........”

Seeing the people coming in such a fierce manner, the county magistrate in the capital was so scared that he didn't dare to open the court. He had to order his men to close the county government office.

As the situation became increasingly serious, the people became increasingly agitated and dissatisfied, all shouting that their sons had died unjustly without any compensation.

They all cried and said how good the rules in Plague City were. Women could go out to work and earn money for food with their own hands, while they could only live off their savings.

County Magistrate: “….”

It's numb.

He actually thinks Plague City is good!

No, no, no, he is an important official in the court!

The county magistrate wiped his face and quietly went out through the back door. Oh, no! The back door was also blocked by the people.

A county magistrate had to climb out from the wall in the end and ran to the palace to meet the emperor in a panic.

now.

The main hall of the imperial palace.

When Pei Changying heard about what happened in the county government office, he was so confident and domineering that he didn't realize how serious the matter was, and he didn't think his rules needed to be changed.

He was so angry that he threw the memorial to the ground: "How dare these unruly people cause trouble right under my nose."

"Did the last incident with Zhao Ronghua give them confidence? Do they think I'm so easy to manipulate?"

"Don't worry about them. If they dare to break down the gate of the county government office, then according to the law, anyone who storms into the county government office will be punished with disobedience and executed immediately!"
