Chapter 324 Why is it like a joke? (4)

They stayed in Xunzhou for two days, all the soldiers did not disturb the people, and did not forcibly requisition food and grass, which moved and comforted the uneasy people. When the rebels left Xunzhou, some people came to see them off with melons, fruits and rice .

The chicken, duck, fish, melon, fruit, rice, and facial flaws did not accept it, but they accepted the water bag presented by a centenarian.

"Everyone understands the hearts of the people, but everyone's life is not easy, how can Rong have the heart to watch everyone suffer from hunger and hunger?" Rong Xia raised the water bag above his head, "Water is the source of life, Rong accepted the old man The water bag presented as a gift is to accept the wishes of the folks, please take care of the folks, let me leave."

Xun Zhou was moved by Rong Xia's attitude and rhetoric, and knew that all the rebels had left, and there were still some people standing at the gate of the city who were unwilling to leave.

"Good man, good man." The centenarian stood up holding the hands of his children and grandchildren, and looked up at the sky. "God has eyes, and finally let us see hope."

The people around were infected by the emotions of the centenarian, and they all hoped that Rong Xia would become the emperor.

The rebel army left Xunzhou, and the next place was Jingzhou. Like Xunzhou, Jingzhou opened its gates to welcome them. However, after Rong Xia and the others entered the city, they found that the local officials were corrupt and incompetent, exploiting the common people, so they convicted these corrupt officials and beheaded them in front of the common people.

For a while, the people rushed to tell each other that Jingzhou had finally come to a good official.

Ordinary people don't care whether the people who come are the imperial court or the rebels, as long as they can help them get justice and don't bully them, then they are good officials.

What, you said that this handsome young official might become emperor, but the current emperor is incompetent?

Then the young high official must be made the emperor, why keep a fatuous and incompetent emperor, keep it for the New Year? If a pig is raised, it can be slaughtered and eaten during the New Year, and it is useless to keep an emperor who is a fish and meat commoner.

Ban Hua followed Rong Xia, watching the common people smile with satisfaction because the corrupt officials were beheaded, and was a little moved. These common people don't know what it means to be loyal to the emperor, and they don't know poetry, poetry, calligraphy and painting. They don't even know the name of the current emperor. They run around for their livelihood every day, but they are so easily satisfied. Even if the emperor in a high position is not willing to work hard for the people, he should think about them and think about them a little bit.

At least... it would allow them to live a little more peacefully.

The corrupt officials' homes were ransacked, and Rong Xia arranged for a few people to take care of Jingzhou's affairs. After the people had accepted the management of these people's affairs, he led the army to continue marching towards the capital.

It may be because Rong Xia killed corrupt officials in Jingzhou, which made the officials of other prefectures and counties panic. They did not dare to welcome Rong Xia into the city, so some people began to resist fiercely, and some people had not yet caught up with the army led by Rong Xia. At that time, they fled in a hurry with their wives, children and treasures, leaving only the officers and soldiers to resist.

Some officials deliberately spread some news, saying that Rong Xia is a murderous demon, but wherever he passes, blood will flow into rivers, wailing everywhere, inspiring the local people to fight hard. This trick is not very useful, because most of the people have already heard the news from other counties and counties, saying how good this Cheng'an Marquis is, how tolerant he is to the people, and the corrupt officials along the way are also punished by him up.

When the people found out that the officials had deliberately lied to them, this kind of anger could not be suppressed.

So when Rong Xia and others came to Taizhou, which was relatively close to the capital, the city gate of Taizhou was opened first by a group of angry people. The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate didn't stop the people much, and didn't even draw their swords, allowing the people to pull the city gate open.

Ban Hua rode on the horse, turned his head to Rong Xia and said, "Rong Xia, are we really rebelling?"

Why is this like a joke?
