New Story of Lv Bu

: : Apologize

"Good grandson, since you started writing for yourself, I know you are a good piece of material! From tomorrow, except for reading, you will be by your grandfather's side. You don't have to do anything, just look at it with your eyes. , See clearly all the conspiracies and tricks in this world! Only when you see clearly and get used to them, can you use your own power to deal with them!"

The old man said solemnly, even though Bo Yan didn't quite understand, he knew what his grandfather said was good, so he nodded heavily. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and blinked his big eyes and asked: "Grandfather, but father has something to say, don't bother grandfather all the time, what should I do?" When he mentioned Bo Yan's father, the hiring elder immediately got angry. Here comes.

"Don't mention that idiot! As stupid as a cow, too stupid! You will listen to your grandfather in the future!"

When Zhao Qi and Wang Wei rushed to the dock by car, there were already crowds of people within ten miles. Seventy to eighty thousand men and women with food sticks in their hands dragged their homes and looked towards the east. They waited and looked forward anxiously. This upcoming grain transport fleet has brought new hope to their poor life. With grain, they can continue to live.

These civilians are all in rags, all face is disheveled, and their faces are full of ravines. That is the mark left by years of poverty and poverty. When Taishi Dong's Xiliang army was entrenched in Chang'an City, they were nothing but fish on the chopping board. The Xiliang army was allowed to take what they wanted, their wives were scattered, their families were ruined, they tasted the sadness of life, suffered all the hardships, and shed tears.

Nowadays, the government has actually engaged in this ‘relief by work’, which can still advance grain for ten days. It’s so good! With these ten days of food, it can be guaranteed that the whole family will not starve to death. After ten days, they can return with their food bags. But are the government's words unbelievable? Anyway, at noon, the answer will be revealed, and the big guy will just wait.

More than 10,000 combined state troops are fully armed, with top helmets and braided armour, lined up in formation, quietly guarding around the pier. A hundred food distribution shops were set up on the pier, and hundreds of small officials were sitting on felt mats, chatting to each other. Behind them is a large empty basket, which is used to hold grain sticks, and on the other side is a lifting bucket for grain.

The sun in the sky has penetrated into the thick clouds. The temperature in midsummer is very high, but without the sun's rays and the breeze blowing from time to time, people don't think it is too hot. The ground is full of green grass. Between that green area, there are all kinds of wild flowers. Perhaps because of too many people, the calls of crickets and grasshoppers are much lower.

"Bing Qing, if it's noon, and the grain transport fleet hasn't arrived, then something big will happen!" Wang Wei gave a wry smile and glanced at Zhao Qi. "Look, seven to eighty thousand people plus their dependents, not to mention two hundred thousand, almost the entire city of Chang'an has come! If you can't get food, and if people with ulterior motives fan the flames, the scene will definitely change. It's out of control. Once the scene is out of control, it's like a rebellion in Chang'an City. By then, you and I will never shirk the blame!"

"So, I'm ready. Once the grain transport team can't arrive on time, I will apologize!" Zhao Qi's face was pale, and his eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that the loss of 200,000 shi of grain had dealt a huge blow to him. of. "As the chief official in charge of disaster relief, I can't shirk the blame! I will apology with you at that time!" Wang Kui patted the sword on his waist and said calmly. "Since I wore this sword, it hasn't been opened yet. It is just right to use it today!"

In a blink of an eye, the time has come, and there is still no trace of the grain-carrying fleet in the distance. People began to agitate, and anxiety began to spread. "Isn't it noon? It's already time, why haven't we seen the grain transport fleet?" "Yes? Could it be that the government lied to us?" "I don't think it can? If you want to cheat, you can't. You lied to the people in Chang'an all at once? Maybe it was a little bit late, wait a minute."

"Look, Zhu Jun! I'm right! It's all right now, and the grain transport fleet hasn't come yet!" Xiao Weng waved his hands and said loudly. He was already drunk. "Well, Xiaoweng is right! ??? Uh??? Come on! Let's do another one!" Several food traders who were drunk smashed their mouths, and took it between half asleep and half awake. One sentence, then turned his head and continued to sleep soundly. Infected by them, Xiaoweng also closed his eyes and fell asleep. His hands were dropped on his belly. The eight huge gold rings began to wobble again, and the entourage on the left and right quickly avoided those who were staring at him. eye.

"Let's go, let's go forward, the last moment is coming." Zhao Qi glanced at Wang Wei, and strode ahead. "Okay." Wang Wei drank a bowl of herbal tea in his hand, slammed the large coarse porcelain bowl to the ground, stood up and followed Zhao Qi. "The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return! Jingke is a celebrity through the ages, but I apologize for the two of us. What is the taste, but who did you say to?" "It's okay, as long as you are worthy of your conscience, That's enough!"

Time passed slowly, like a long river with no end in sight, rolling in with the pressure of Mount Tai, unstoppable and irresistible. It eliminated the dross, left the essence, swallowed how many heroes and heroes, and covered up how many lies and deceptions, the old traces of **** killings were washed away, leaving only a longer expectation.

Wang Wei and Zhao Qi climbed up, holding hands, looking far away, surrounded by people whispering to each other. They looked at the two imperial order officers curiously, and secretly wondered if they were going crazy. Among the crowds, the people sent by Xiao Weng were fanning the flames. "Guys! You were deceived! The grain transport fleet sank! This is the news that I just got!"

The crowd immediately became agitated, and the ordinary people stretched their ears, listened carefully, and looked at these people in amazement. "I think you are wrong. If the food ship sinks, what kind of food lot will be issued? This is a mobilization of people, and soldiers and people are sent out. Is the government so idle? Can't it be done?" Said the child.

"No, no, no! The news of the sinking of the food ship did not come until after the food lottery was issued." The person spreading the rumors quickly explained. "Then it's even more wrong? They only knew that the food ship had sunk after issuing the food lottery. They didn't know, how could it be a lie?" The youngsters of the five big and three rough were more puzzled. "Oh! I'm too lazy to explain to you! In short, you can't get food today!" The rumors spreader was stunned by the five big and three thick epigenetics, and simply stomped away.

The goal has been achieved. If this matter is not left, when will we wait? "The grain ship sank. I can't get food today. I can always get it tomorrow, right? I can't get it tomorrow, but I can always get it in five or six days. No, my own food will definitely not be able to support it for five or six days. "Oh! The food ship sank, what should I do if my family is young and old?"

People are in a critical juncture, even if you give him a straw or draw a big pie, he will take it seriously. Because you gave him the courage to continue to live and gave him the hope of living. However, once the hope is shattered, it will arouse his great disgust, and even irrational behavior will occur. Because the shattered hope hits people better than hunger and even death.

Nearly 200,000 people all reacted, the food ship sank, and the whole family faced the dilemma of starvation again. Their first reaction was to lift their feet and look to the east carefully, but there was not even a shadow of a sail there! The huge gap instantly filled their minds, and many people immediately began to cry and cry. Without a fleet, there would be no food.

It was noon at last, but the food convoy had not yet arrived, and the people stood there dumbfounded, with despair in their eyes. Suddenly, a person yelled: "The government of Gouri, how dare you lie to us? Folks, fight with them!" In a short time, hundreds of people yelled: "Yes! Fight with them! Since you are alive! If you don’t go down, everyone will be finished together!"

The frustration of hope led to a large-scale commotion, and the huge loss and threat of death made the people lose their minds. At this moment, thousands of people have forgotten that their grain is advanced, that is to say, the grain is lent to them by the government, and the ownership is still in the hands of the government. They only know that if hope is lost, the whole family will starve to death! Therefore, they are angry, irritable, and very upset. In this case, someone must be responsible for this!

As for whether this person should be responsible or not, they don't care, and they have no time to manage. Now they are like a group of red-eyed beasts, and they must vent their anger! As for the consequences, they didn't think about it, and they had no time to think about it. This is human nature, naked human nature! Once the ordinary people become fanatical, things can't be cleaned up.

At this moment, Wang Wei and Zhao Qi stood with their hands on a high place and shouted loudly. "Guys? I'm Zhao Qi, the new chief farmer, you should all recognize me! I appear every day in ten congee sheds and Dongshi's dumplings. The one beside me is Henan Yin. , Da Sima Hu, Cao Zhuan Wang Wei. This'relief by work' was handled by the two of us on the orders of Da Sima!"

"The news you just heard is true. A large-scale grain-carrying fleet was sunk by wind and waves, and hundreds of grain ships were lost and 200,000 shi of grain was lost!" At this point, Zhao Qi and Wang Wei's His eyes flushed, tears flowed down cracklingly, and the clothes were wet in an instant. Zhao Qi didn't care to wipe his tears, he said with a sobbing calmness.

"The two of me are officials in charge. I should apologize for making such a big mistake!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the two squealed and drew out the sword together and wiped it to their necks!
