Chapter 251 The Imperial Guards Enter Jinling City
On the loft of the tallest single building of Daming Daily, Zhu Youzhai Station, you can just see a large group of parades and rioters outside the gate, Dongchang Fanzi and Liu Kongzhao's soldiers who confronted him.
"I didn't expect that these people in Jiangnan would be so crazy that they completely ignored the authority of the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. They even dared to attack the Dongchang, which had always been terrifying," Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but say.
"I'm afraid the scholars of the Fushe Society themselves didn't expect that they just wanted to force Your Majesty, you can ban the Royal Weaver Bureau, but who expected that once the people got crazy, they would dare to do anything, I'm afraid," Wei Min'er said, and couldn't help but shut up. However, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but turn around and look at her and asked, "What are you afraid of?"
Wei Min'er couldn't stand Zhu Youxiao's formidable eyes and had to reply: "I'm afraid there will be people's rebellion, and even cults will take the opportunity to cause trouble. At that time, Jiangnan will fall into chaos, and the Ming Dynasty may be out of protection!"
"presumptuous!"
Zhu Youxiao immediately scolded Wei Min'er. Although he had to admit that the ex-supporter daughter in front of him was indeed extremely intelligent, he would never allow others to say something like "the Ming Dynasty is in danger".
The Ming Dynasty has been with it for more than two hundred years. Many people automatically believe that it is time to change dynasties and regard the demise of the Ming Dynasty as a very natural historical law, just like people will also have birth, old age, sickness and death.
It is precisely because of this that many scholars and people of the Ming Dynasty were as negative as those of the late dynasties, or to find excuses for their extravagant and desireful life. Anyway, they felt that the dynasty would die, and "the warm wind made tourists drunk and turned Hangzhou into Bianzhou."
Therefore, as the emperor, Zhu Youxiao must have a sense of crisis, but he must also prevent the negative thoughts of being arising or discussing below. He wants everyone in the dynasty to have the confidence to believe that the Ming Dynasty can still dominate the country for hundreds of years!
Seeing that Zhu Youxiao's fists were clenched tightly, the blue veins bulged, but his eyes were mysterious and unpredictable, and he seemed to have a sense of approval, he also understood his original intention of scolding him like this, so he had to bow and nod and said, "The girl in the civilian knows the crime!"
"In the future, there is no need to call yourself a civilian daughter. You can either be a minister or a concubine." Zhu Youxiao said lightly and didn't really care about Wei Min'er. However, after hearing Zhu Youxiao's casual sentence, Wei Min'er couldn't help but feel fickle. She also understood Zhu Youxiao's intentions, but she still had to say explicitly: "Then I call myself a concubine, and I dare not take the word "女官网". Please forgive me!"
Zhu Youxiao smiled and didn't say anything.
At this time, more and more rioters were surrounding the Daming Daily. These people stood outside, without saying anything or fighting, and stood there like an old monk sitting in meditation.
Behind Zhu Youxiao, from the attic to the stairs to the gate, the editors of the Dongchang Fanzi and Daming Daily were already occupied.
Even the main writer Zhang Dai stood inside the gate with a half-meter-long door bolt, and guarded the editor with a serious look on his face.
When Zhu Youxiao saw this scene, he couldn't help laughing and called Yidong Factory to come over: "Transfer my decree to the editor Mr. Zhang, and ask him to take his editors back to work hard for his own. Their thin arms and legs can stop a few chaotic people. They are like a bamboo pole and are exposed to the sun when they are exposed to the sun on the sun, it will be bad if they are exposed to heat. Tell them that their battlefield is in the pen battle. After the matter is over, they will have to do the final qualitative and final work!"
...
Time passed by minute by minute, some places were still shouting loudly, and some places stood there silently like those people in front of the Daming Daily.
Strikes have become a common phenomenon, and many academies are empty. Zhang Renxue, the inspector of the Southern Zhili Censor, was surrounded by hundreds of students in the yamen, and was forced to impeach Li Mingrui for Zhu Youjiao.
At the same time, due to the impact of the strike, there has been a situation where garbage has not been cleaned up in big cities such as Jinling, Suzhou and Hangzhou, causing sand to fly all over the city, and even garbage is everywhere.
After a summer rain hit, a foul smell began to spread throughout the city. However, the sewer was blocked due to too much garbage, and the city's water accumulation became more serious.
What is more serious than this is that many shops closely related to the people, such as food, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, etc., cannot be operated, which causes many small and medium-sized businessmen to suffer huge losses, and many people in the city are also trapped in famine.
Only a few people participated in the parade, but most of the lives of people were affected.
Zhu Youxiao's life was also affected. Although he guessed that this would happen in the march, he ordered the government offices and the people to extract and store food. The Daming Daily also reserved a lot of food in advance, but it was almost out of the market in a few days, which made him have to eat porridge every day now.
The marchers outside the Daming Daily shouted regularly in the morning and afternoon every day, and then sat down and rested at other times, and set up a pot on the ground to cook.
Of course, there are also people who can't stand it and leave one after another. Every day, there will be dozens to hundreds of people not waiting for people to leave, but there will always be some students in the Fushe Society who bewitched and let some people join in.
They were waiting, waiting for the Emperor, who was still silent, to come out. They wanted the Emperor, who was in the Forbidden City, to come out to agree to their request.
But they didn't know that their emperor was surrounded by him now, and Zhu Youxiao could not return to the palace now, and his series of measures could not be carried out. The only thing they could do now was to wait, wait for Qin Botong's two battalions of imperial guards to arrive, and then open up the current deadlock.
...
On the surface of the Yangtze River, warships from the Ming Navy (temporarily composed of Nanjing Caojiang Navy) were used to transport the imperial guards in Jiangbei to Xiaguan, Jin Botong couldn't wait to lead the two of the most elite infantry camps he trained in Xuzhou and ran into the city tower.
The infantry in these two battalions are all soldiers from Jiangbei, and they are basically familiar with the hydrological environment, so they are not seasick. As soon as they get ashore, they still step towards Jinling City neatly like a dragon and a dragon.
At this time, the outer periphery of Jinling City was empty, which was suitable for the army to move rapidly.
"Everyone is quick, and each battalion organized a commando composed of three-eyed guns to break through in two directions for the vanguard army. Remember, this time it is a battle, and those who dare to block the way will be treated as enemies and shoot!"
Before this, Qin Botong had learned from the East Factory that His Majesty was trapped at the Daming Daily station, so he immediately rushed to the place as soon as he got ashore.
The three hundred cavalry and Ye Zhen's escort guards were sent by Zhu Youxiao to the Royal Weaving Bureau, the Royal Bank branch, the Jiangnan Branch of the Royal Industrial Company respectively.
The people gathered in these places were no less than those in the Daming Daily station, and there were even greater bloody conflicts. However, because of the strong strength of the Imperial Guards, the situation there was better. At least the work in these important places could still be carried out as usual.
