Chapter 369: A Group of People Go to Beijing to Join Qin Bingrui
Luo Yu cleared his throat and paused for a moment.
He continued, "If Miss Xia goes, the Emperor will be worried about what might happen if he stays in the palace, so why not take the Emperor with you to the Northwest?"
In this way, let’s see how the Queen Mother plans to take over the Emperor.
As long as the emperor is alive and the tiger talisman is in Qin Bingrui's hands, this group of people will not dare to act recklessly for the time being.
Zhu Jinyou remained silent throughout the whole process. He looked at the girl with extremely calm eyes and felt more and more that her heart was empty.
She noticed Zhu Jinyou looking at her calmly and smiled. "I wonder if anyone else wants to go with us to the northwest? You can sign up now. By the way, I wonder if there's enough silver and food in the treasury. If we want the soldiers to work hard enough, the pay must be sufficient."
Everyone was extremely shocked. Although they knew that these women were puzzling, they did not expect that they would not play by the rules at all. They actually wanted to take the dying emperor to the northwest. It was amazing that she could think of such a thing.
After a while, seeing that no one spoke, Chief Envoy Yao stood beside Miss Luo Yu and said, "This old servant thinks Miss Luo Yu's method is very good. The emperor is under the care of Miss Xia, and his health is indeed getting better day by day."
Duke Anguo echoed, "This old minister also thinks this is a good idea."
Others dare not say that they can protect the emperor's health if he stays in the palace. If something happens, they will be the ones to take the blame.
Qin Bingrui nodded with satisfaction and asked Eunuch Gao to ask the Minister of Revenue to allocate millions of dollars in military pay from the national treasury. In this battle, she did not want to just repel the nomadic people. It would be best to recapture them all at once and complete an industrial revolution immediately.
The Queen Mother didn't interrupt. At the last moment, she said, "The country cannot be without a ruler for a day. Since the Emperor won't wake up soon, and the young princes are still young, I think it would be best if someone could take over the position."
Prince Beijing strongly recommended: "I think His Highness Prince Ning is the most suitable in terms of both talent and age."
Several other civil servants followed suit.
Qin Bingrui said cheerfully: "You guys can make your own decisions about the affairs of the court. I'm not an official or a member of the royal family. These matters have nothing to do with me."
The Queen Mother was so angry that she slammed the armrest of her chair and said, "You bastard! How dare you, a dog slave, use such filthy words in the court!"
Qin Bingrui rolled his eyes at her.
"I'm not a dog slave. My last name is Qin Bingrui. Although I tolerate your rhetoric of hierarchy, it doesn't mean I accept it. In my worldview, all people are equal. If a country perishes, the nobles perish first. If a country prospers, the nobles prosper. Ordinary people like me can follow anyone and the result will be the same. If you insist on provoking me, I can serve another master. After all, the people are still the same people. The end of a dynasty does not mean the end of the country. Who is afraid of who?"
"..."
Xia Liang suddenly appeared from nowhere and added fuel to the fire, "I heard Shenlong tell me in my dream that the dynasties correspond to Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, Three Kingdoms, Jin, Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Rong, and what was the last one... It seems like it really is the dynasty of some other ethnic group!"
Young Master Murong frowned slightly, and he became more and more convinced that the three girls came from another world, the world of the future.
After seeing off the empress dowager and several generals and ministers, Zhu Jinyou still sat in his seat, leaning sideways on the chair, looking very lazy.
Qin Bingrui smiled at him with a fake smile and said, "Your Highness Prince Ning is sitting here and won't leave. Is there something you want to tell us?"
Zhu Jinyou raised his eyebrows, but his true inner thoughts could not be seen, and he seemed calm.
After a pause, he finally said, "If Miss Luo Yu wants to go to the northwest together, I am willing to go with you. I have experience in fighting in the northwest."
"The Queen Mother has just stated that you will temporarily sit on the throne of Regent. The court cannot be without a ruler for a single day."
"The Queen Mother and a hundred thousand imperial guards are guarding us, so there's no need to be afraid."
As soon as he finished speaking, the imperial guards guarding outside the palace came to report.
It turned out to be a group of people who looked like refugees. They came with a strong force and now had arrived at the gate of the capital. Fortunately, they did not start a war. They were led by several strong men who were dressed neatly and held weapons.
Qin Bingrui stood up and ran out suddenly.
Zhu Jinyou curiously asked Luo Yu, who was assembling the Luban Lock, "Do you know what's going on?"
Luo Yu held up a particularly complex Luban lock and said with a smile: "My time is a little shorter this time."
He smiled perfunctorily: "The girl is really amazing."
Luo Yu smiled mischievously: "You clearly know what's going on, why are you asking me? Besides, aren't your people well hidden in every corner? Miss Qin's people are all young and inexperienced, and they can't fight you."
"Miss Luo Yu is truly a sensible person."
Luo Yu put down the lock in his hand, put them all into an exquisite box, held it in both hands and walked over to hand it to him.
"I give it to you. Playing with it when you are old can prevent Alzheimer's disease."
Zhu Jinyou took the box, feeling both amused and helpless.
"Miss Luo Yu, are you really going to say goodbye to me?"
Luo Yu looked at him with his big, innocent eyes and sneered, "You really have a way with your imagination. I'm not going to die."
"That's why I said, go with the girl."
"Your Highness, are you afraid that our defeat will affect your chance to sit on the throne?"
"Anyone can take this seat, I just want to be with the girl."
Xia Liang was clicking his tongue at the side, looking disgusted. He was really very sick now.
Qin Bingrui, Ye Yucheng, Master Murong and others ran out of the capital and were shocked by the scene in front of them.
It turned out that Kong Tian was leading less than 20,000 disaster victims from Wangzhou City. They were all dressed in rags and holding various weapons in their hands. Their appearance was not much different from that of the Flying Tigers when they first went out to rob.
Qin Bingrui took a deep breath and kept himself calm.
Kong Tian was very excited to see Qin Bingrui.
"General Qin, I, A Tian, am here to serve as your deputy general."
"..."
He is really a simple young man.
"How did you bring so many people out?"
A Tian scratched his lice-infested hair sheepishly, and said with a simple smile: "The news in the palace has reached our Wangzhou City. Originally, I just asked Lao Zhang and the others if they wanted to come to the capital with me to seek refuge with Master Qin and you. Although he has a family, he thought that relying on the one acre of land he cultivated would not be enough to support his family, so he decided to come out with me to try his luck. Then he asked a few friends who were working with him at the time. As a result, word spread from one to two, and from two to three. Everyone knew that Master Qin was in trouble and wanted to come to the capital to lend a hand.
Mr. Qin, don't look at how we look now, but we are all very strong. We have been doing hard work for almost a year, working five or six hours a day. We don't eat much, and we are all good fighters. Last time, a group of refugees came to the construction site to cause trouble, and Lao Zhang and his friends killed dozens of them.
By the way, we originally only had a team of about 10,000 people, but we recruited several thousand more along the way. They all came here out of admiration for the deeds of Master Qin and Miss Bai, and followed their example."
Qin Bingrui said "oh" and his eyes became moist.
The ancients were really loyal. If they were given a few meals, everyone would follow them at the risk of their lives. No wonder it was so easy to rebel in ancient times. It was mainly for the sake of having enough food.
"Then Lord Li didn't stop you?"
"He knows there's some unrest at the imperial court right now, and he's worried about unrest elsewhere, so he's busy suppressing it and can't really care about us. But he told me to lead the others and not cause any trouble along the way. He said you and Miss Bai both care about the common people, and if we kill innocent people, you'll definitely not take us in."
"Of course. If you kill innocent people indiscriminately, you'll be no different from the corrupt officials and profiteers who destroyed families and people in Wangzhou City back then."
A Tian nodded repeatedly, and his dark and rough face was wrinkled with smiles.
"We will follow Master Qin for our entire lives, and Master Qin's words will always be the truth."
Murong folded his hands over his elbows, with the corners of his mouth curled up. It seemed that Miss Qin really had some tricks to win people's hearts.
