The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

At this time, on the road.

A person is running with lightning speed.

This person is Dongfang Bu.

With sinister eyes, he said with a cold smile: "Dongfang Bai, you bitch, you really betrayed the orders of your ancestors and joined Yan Song? Huh! When I enter Beijing and regain control of the West Factory as Dongfang Invincible, I will definitely arrest you!" Shredded to pieces!"

For half a year, he has been sleeping and cultivating, and now his skill has greatly increased, his strength is stronger, and his hatred for Yan Song and Dongfang Bai is also deeper.

"Hahaha····"

His crazy laughter was floating in the air, and he was flying towards Beijing.

In Beijing in April, it snowed again.

The common people talked about it.

"Wow, why is it already April, it's spring, and it's still snowing?"

"This is terrible. The early spring wheat in the field will be frozen to death."

"God still let people live? The snow is getting bigger every year, and the weather is getting colder every year."

"Last spring, it snowed and there was a snow disaster, which caused food shortages in the northern provinces. It was Mr. Yan Ge who sent people to transfer food from the southeast to barely survive the spring famine. Why is it coming again this year? Is it even worse?"

Facing the sudden heavy snowstorm and the famine in spring, people in all parts of the capital were in panic.

Rumors abound.

The most credible theory is that the prince committed crimes, ascended the throne and became emperor, murdered the king and father, was dissolute and dissolute, and angered the heavens, so that such a large-scale snowstorm was sent to warn the world.

(Prince: ····Feudal superstition is not acceptable.)

It wasn't just the heavy snow that made the common people in the capital even more depressed.

And soaring prices.

Due to the impact of heavy snow and road closures, it is difficult to transport vegetables, fruits and grains supplied by the surrounding Zhili Province.

Things are rare.

Therefore, vegetable prices, grain prices, and charcoal prices have skyrocketed.

After experiencing the turmoil at the beginning of the addition of the yellow robe, the lives of ordinary people in Beijing were very difficult. In addition to this wave of natural and man-made disasters, heavy snow blocked roads, and skyrocketing prices made it even more miserable.

The heavy snow directly collapsed the houses of many poor families, causing the common people to be crushed to death. There were many casualties.

And the more icy and snowy weather made heating more problematic.Every morning, in every street and alley, there are Dongfu corpses who were frozen to death, transported out of the city by handymen, and sent to Zuojiazhuang Huaren Field for cremation to prevent a major plague.

Today, the prices of daily necessities such as food, vegetables, and charcoal are soaring, making the common people miserable and sighing.

Just for the price of grain, a bucket of rice was 80 renminbi before the tour from Jiajing. In early April, after the door was closed, it suddenly rose to 120 renminbi, and now it has broken through 200 renminbi. The road is blocked, and the stock is almost sold out. The price of food is 250 cash, and you can buy it."

Zhu Zaihou usurped the throne just over a month ago, and the price of food has risen by more than 4 times!

··········

The price of charcoal is even more exaggerated.

The price of a catty of ordinary charcoal has risen to 20 yuan, not to mention the best smokeless charcoal (common people in the Ming Dynasty basically burned charcoal for heating. Smokeless charcoal is made of special pine wood, without Smoke and dust, which can be regarded as valuables exclusively for wealthy families), have a price but no market at all.

The resentment of the common people in Beijing towards Zhu Zaihou accumulated over time and gradually brewed into disaster.

All of this was seen by Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng.

The prince's side is not without talent.Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng are two great talents.

"It can't go on like this." Gao Gong was riding on the horse, watching the snow piled up on the roof, which was half a person's height, and every house, with bare walls, was burning brooms and door panels to keep warm. , worried.

..........

Zhang Juzheng frowned and said: "I have already ordered Zhili Province to spare no effort to transport grain and charcoal materials to supply the capital. I also ordered merchants to transfer materials to Beijing. For some reason, the effect is very poor. There is no material transportation. Come in. Ask those merchants, and the merchants hesitated, saying that the emperor (Zhu Zaihou) lacked credit and plundered the people's wealth. They were afraid that the supplies brought in would be confiscated by the court for free..."

One of Gao Gong Khan.

Because of this kind of immoral thing about giving birth to a child without an ass hole, Zhu Zaihou really did a lot, and he definitely can do it.

"All in all, it's not okay to go on like this. The three major ticket offices were robbed and Yan Song's home was copied. Although the common people were dissatisfied, they dared not speak out. But now that the capital is suffering from such a heavy snowstorm, if they just sit back and watch, the common people will not eat or drink. Frozen and starved to death, but something big is about to happen."

Gao Gong looked helpless, and shook his head: "Let's go to the palace and persuade Your Majesty to take out the silver taels and come to the disaster relief."

The two braved the heavy snow and rode straight to the palace.

As soon as they entered the palace, the two looked blank...

It turned out that in the royal garden of the imperial palace, which was supposed to be icy and snowy, unexpectedly...

Warm as spring?

Blooming like brocade?

What's happening here?

Seeing the warm inner palace like spring, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng looked dazed.
