The first thousand one hundred and ninety-two chapters come from the court
"Go and see what's going on in front of you? Why are there so many people here?"
A carriage driving on the official road was blocked by a huge flow of people in front of it. The carriage had to stop and could not move forward even half a minute.
Those who can ride a carriage these days are either rich or noble, and they will always bring servants with them when traveling.
An accompanying servant left the carriage and trotted towards the crowd in front.
After a while, the servant returned to the carriage.
"Sir, after asking clearly, they are all from Datong. They said they were going to the grassland."
The curtain in the carriage was opened, revealing the face of a middle-aged man, and he was heard to say: "Are so many people going to the grassland?"
"They are all, many people are taking care of their families." The servant said respectfully.
The middle-aged man in the carriage frowned after hearing this.
It's not that people from border towns have fled to the grasslands, but those are only a few families, and they all do this kind of thing secretly. It's very abnormal for people from border towns to go to the grasslands on such a large scale.
This is no longer a normal private escape, it is completely a large-scale migration.
"Which local government is under the jurisdiction of this place?" The middle-aged man on the carriage said in a cold voice.
It could be heard in his tone that he was unhappy.
He didn't believe that the local government was unaware of such a large-scale migration of people, but for such a long time he didn't see anyone from the government coming forward to stop it. Such ineffective officials made him very dissatisfied.
The servant said: "In front is Xinping Fort. I heard that the guard of Xinping Fort is a guerrilla general named Liu. This place belongs to Datong East Road and is also under the rule of Liu guerrilla."
"How can the defender of such an important place be a guerrilla general? What nonsense." The middle-aged man on the carriage snorted coldly.
The guard of the border fort was on horseback to take care of the army and to take charge of the people. In such an important position, a guerrilla general was not qualified to serve as the guard of Xinping Fort.
The servant standing beside the carriage did not answer.
He is just a servant who waits for others. How can he know about the affairs of the officials and he doesn't dare to talk nonsense.
The middle-aged man on the carriage did not expect the servant to answer his words, and said directly to the servant: "Tell the coachman to go to Xinpingbao. I want to see how this guerrilla general explains when he sees me."
After saying that, he lowered the curtain and sat back in the carriage.
"The master said, go to Xinpingbao." The servant repeated to the driver.
"Drive!" the driver urged the animals pulling the cart and continued on the road.
There were many people rushing on the official road, occupying most of the pipeline. The driver could only get out of the car and lead the animals to move forward little by little, while the servants drove away the people blocking the road.
The journey that originally took less than half an hour ended up taking more than an hour.
"Sir, we're here." The servant stood respectfully beside the carriage and put the stool on the carriage on the ground.
The place where the carriage stopped was right in front of the city gate of Xinpingbao.
The middle-aged man in the carriage lifted the curtains and stuck his head out to look outside.
When he saw many people walking towards the grassland, his face became extremely ugly.
"Go and ask the soldiers in front why they watched the people go to the grassland but didn't stop them. They asked them to stop all the people and not let any of them leave." The middle-aged man raised his hand to the soldiers not far ahead.
Point in the direction.
In the direction he pointed, there was a group of people fighting the Tiger Flag, enthroning and heading to the grassland.
The servant left the carriage and ran quickly towards the Tiger Flag soldiers not far away.
A temporary checkpoint was set up outside Xinpingbao City, surrounded by a deer village made of wood. There were several wooden tables next to it, and the soldiers with the tiger flag who registered the people sat behind the wooden tables.
Every citizen who wants to pass through Luzhai to the grassland needs to register here. Once a certain number of people have gathered, they will be specially escorted by soldiers with the Tiger Flag.
The servant ran to one of the wooden tables alone.
Before he could speak, he heard the Tiger Flag soldier behind the wooden table say: "Registration personnel should line up at the back and don't jump in line."
The soldiers of the Tiger Flag regarded each other as ordinary people going to the grassland.
"I'm not here to register." The servant said, "My master asked me to come here and ask you why you don't stop these people from going to the grassland."
As he finished speaking, a man walked over from the side and asked, "Who is your master?"
"My master's identity will scare you, so listen carefully." The servant said with a proud face, "My master is the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and is currently the censor of Datong."
"So you guys came here from Yanghewei?" The person who spoke was the captain of the Tiger Flag War Troop here and the person in charge here.
The servant looked at the soldiers in front of him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Let me ask you why these people let them go out to the grassland. Now I order you to stop all the people immediately and not allow them to go to the grassland."
"Without our Lord's order, we have no right to stop people from going to the grassland." The captain of the Tiger-Character Banner Soldiers said calmly.
If you were an ordinary soldier, you would naturally not dare to disobey the local patrol censor, but the people in the Tiger Banner don't care whether the patrol is patrolling or not. Even if the governor comes here, it will not work.
The man's face darkened and he said: "You are so brave. You dare to disobey the orders of the Governor. Believe it or not, just a word from the Governor will send you people to prison!"
"It's not up to you to decide whether to go to prison or not. Since you're not going to the grassland, leave immediately and don't get in the way." The captain of the Tiger-Character Flag War Troops began to drive people away.
Because the other party was blocking the wooden table, many people's registration had been delayed.
"Okay, okay, okay, you are really good soldiers brought out by your Lord Liu. You even dare to disobey the orders of Lord Patroller. Just wait until you see your Lord Liu, and you will be impressed. "The servant saw that he was surrounded by strong soldiers, so he had no choice but to say a few harsh words and leave.
"Come and register for those who come from behind."
As soon as the servants sent by the patrol commander left, the soldier sitting behind the wooden table called to the people queuing behind to come forward to register.
The captain of the tiger-character flag also returned to the position where he had been before, but looked through the flow of people and looked at the servant next to the patrolman who left.
The servants who left the tiger-character flag soldiers quickly returned to the carriage.
"Sir, those soldiers said that without Liu Guoji's order, they would not stop the people from going to the grassland, even if you use your status as patrol officer, it will not work."
"waste!"
The man in the carriage cursed.
