Du Qi stopped the carriage and ordered: "Mo Ledo, you go back to the palace on horseback and inform Liu Zhengxi to come. Besides, let Liu Zhengxi bring me the little officials who are responsible for managing these old street sweepers."
"yes!"
Mo Le Duo got the order, changed his horse and left.
Liu Jian sat on the shaft of the car. He heard Du Qi's words and knew that Du Qi was angry. In fact, in Liu Jian's view, these officials are simply too much, they are just ordinary people sweeping the floor, and it is too much to torment the people like this.
Du Qi ordered again: "Liu Jian, go and inform the walking people to disperse in place and go home. Just say this is an order from the palace, so that they don't have to practice anymore."
"yes!"
After receiving the order, Liu Jian got out of the carriage and walked forward quickly.
Because these old people are not walking fast, they haven't gone far yet. Liu Jian ran forward quickly for a while, and caught up in the blink of an eye. He went straight to the front, looked at the old man who had talked to him before, and said, "Old man, are you in charge of all these people?"
"yes!"
The old man answered directly.
After a pause, the old man said again: "Although I am responsible, in fact, I just called these old brothers together. I am the same as them."
Liu Jian said: "Old man, I am from Pingxi Palace. I am hereby ordered by Pingxi King to tell you that you don't need to practice any more. Let's go home."
The old man stopped when he heard Liu Jian's words.
Everyone behind stopped.
?Because more than a hundred people were not far away, and Liu Jian's words were loud, and everyone could hear them clearly. They all looked over in unison, all looking at Liu Jian, wanting to confirm the authenticity of the news.
Liu Jian said again: "Old man, it's very cold, and many of you don't wear thick clothes. Go back early, so you don't catch the cold."
The old man shook his head and said: "Young man, I know you have good intentions. But it is not good if you pass on the king's order. We are all street sweepers. How can we get a special order from King Pingxi to disband. Young man, we I won¡¯t report you anymore, and I won¡¯t take you to see an official. Let¡¯s go now, we¡¯ll pretend we didn¡¯t see you.¡±
After Liu Jian heard it, he was immediately embarrassed. He didn't expect that he was ordered to pass on the message, and these old people didn't believe it at all. Liu Jian could only point to the carriage where Du Qi was in the rear, and said, "See, that's the carriage that King Pingxi is riding in."
"I am an attendant of King Pingxi."
"King Pingxi passed by here, and it was very strange to see so many of you walking in the cold weather. So before, let me inquire about the situation."
"King Pingxi learned that you were ordered to practice, and he was very dissatisfied with the actions of the officials. Therefore, he ordered you to disband and go home. And King Pingxi has sent an order to the official in charge of you, ordering him to come."
Liu Jian said: "You can leave at ease, it won't affect you."
After the old man heard it, he hesitated for a while. Some believe it, but some doubt it.
"Wangtou, let's go and see King Pingxi. If it's really King Pingxi, go and see King Pingxi, and you can also wait for someone to come, and we'll see how we deal with it."
In the crowd, someone spoke.
The old man in charge was named Wang Zhongxin. He was a lonely old man in the city. He was a retired veteran because he had been on the battlefield. In particular, his family was very poor, so when the government investigated, they arranged for him to sweep the streets.
After Wang Zhongxin heard it, he looked at Liu Jian again and asked, "Young man, is King Pingxi really in the carriage?"
"Naturally it is true!"
Liu Jian nodded and answered.
Wang Zhongxin rolled his eyes and said, "Can we go see King Pingxi?"
There was a hint of cunning in his eyes, whether it was Wang Zhongxin or many other old people, they had all seen Du Qi. After all, when Du Qi came to Yiwu County, he promised in front of thousands of people that many people had seen Du Qi, and so had Wang Zhongxin.
Liu Jian said: "Let's go, follow me."
"Thank you, thank you!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhongxin walked back with Liu Jian, and came to the carriage not long after.
Liu Jian stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, these people want to see you."
After Du Qi heard it, he lifted the curtain of the carriage and came out, standing in the cold wind. He was well-clothed and covered with a cloak, so he didn't feel the cold.
As soon as Du Qi appeared, Wang Zhongxin immediately knelt down with a plop, kowtowed and said, "Cao Min pays homage to King Pingxi."
It's Du Qi!
This is really Du Qi!
After all, Wang Zhongxin met Du Qi.
Following Wang Zhongxin's kneeling, the rest of the people knelt down one by one, and everyone was very excited. Not only was he excited to see Du Qi, but also excited that Du Qi would exempt them from practicing.
As long as they don't practice anymore, it will be much easier at the end of the day. After all, it is not an easy task to walk in the ice and snow for an hour in the cold weather.
Seeing this, Du Qi said: "Get up, get up!"
Kneeling on the ground in cold weather may be fine, but for a group of elderly people with wet knees, it is not a good thing, and they are prone to illness.
Wang Zhongxin and others all stood up.
One by one, they kept bowing to Du Qi, because most of these old people were from extremely poor families, many of them were widowed and lonely, and many of them had sick people at home.
In short, none of them have a family that can run well. The government investigated the local situation and knew that their family conditions were not good, so they arranged for them to do things.
Although the income from sweeping the floor is not huge, at least it can maintain the family, which is much better than their original life.
Du Qi laughed lightly when he heard the words of thanks from everyone.
Listening to these people's words, there is a sense of accomplishment.
One term of office will benefit one party.
As an official, what you pursue is not only rights, but also responsibilities. And this responsibility is to make the people under the rule able to fill their stomachs, have food to eat, and even better. After a long time, everyone stopped talking, and all their eyes fell on Du Qi, waiting for Du Qi to speak.
Du Qidao: "I know what you practiced in the cold weather. This king passed by here today. I only knew it when I saw it. As for the things you were ordered to practice, I think it's all bullshit and dereliction of duty by the officials above."
"What do you say you need to practice and discipline, and you don't need to go to the battlefield, and you don't need to take care of the fighting. What you have to do is very simple, that is, clean the streets and complete your own duties."
"that's enough."
Du Qi said seriously: "It's either stupid or bad to ask you to practice in cold weather."
When Wang Zhongxin and others heard this, they all laughed.
Du Qi's words are really good.
Du Qi continued: "Don't worry, this king will take care of this matter for you."
One by one, the common people thanked each other again.
All thanks to Du Qi.
At this time, thank you one by one, all talking about my family is not good. Because of Du Qi's arrival, they are now living a good life, so they can at least have enough to eat without worrying about food and clothing.
Du Qi was also happy when he heard what everyone said. Before these people thanked them, they never talked about their own situation, but now after Du Qi said something, the chatterbox of these old people opened up.
Du Qi asked one by one to understand the situation.
Ask about the situation of the people.
He understands them one by one, and sees what difficulties the people have, but these old people are still able to live a decent life. So when Du Qi asked, he originally wanted to know some bad things, but in the end, he didn't understand anything, but he got a lot of thanks.
"Roll! Wheel!!"
The wheels turned, and the sound of trampling horseshoes came, but it was a carriage coming from behind.
Soon he stopped at Du Qi's position.
The curtain of the carriage door was raised, but Liu Zhengxi stepped down first, followed by a middle-aged man in his early thirties, with a kind face and kind eyes, but his eyes were a little erratic.
