Chapter 482: Natural Disaster and War-torn World 30
Ling Xue and his party were stopped outside the city gate, and Shen Zhen was trying to think of a way to enter the city.
The officers didn't dare to stop Ling Xue and his gang when they saw how aggressive they were, but even they couldn't get in unless the city gate was opened.
When Shen Zhen was asked by the police officers, they also told him everything they knew. But they are relatively just servants at the lowest level. Although they are more prestigious in front of the common people, no one with a little status will take them seriously.
Shen Zhen's demeanor was very refined. He looked like he was not an ordinary person. The guards would not dare to mess with him, not to mention that they were now isolated and helpless, and they were afraid of losing their lives.
"When did Yunyang Mansion start collecting city fees?" Shen Zhen asked the officer next to him.
The Shen family also has a separate courtyard in Yunyang Mansion. Shen Zhen used to come to Yunyang Mansion often. He really didn't know about these situations.
The servant trembled and replied: "It started half a month ago. The prefect personally ordered it."
Shen Zhen nodded and did not continue to ask. He looked at Ling Xue, wondering if this young master had any questions. No idea.
Ling Xue had never known about this prefect before, so she really needed to know more about it, so she asked Shen Zhen: "
Who is this prefect?"
Shen Zhen still knew this information, and she quickly told Ling Xue explained: "The name of the prefect of Yunyang is Cui Hu. He is a descendant of the Cui family in Luoyang. He is thirty-eight years old. He is married to the Liu family of Hedong. He has a son and a daughter. He has no concubines!" In this way, this prefect is from a common family background
. ?
Everyone comes from a good background, and people from everyone are basically not loyal to the emperor. In their opinion, it doesn't matter whoever becomes the emperor, they don't care, because whoever becomes the emperor must rely on their wealthy families, otherwise their throne will not be stable.
Under such circumstances, how loyal do you expect them to be to the emperor?
Ling Xue and Shen Zhen looked at each other, and they both saw the decision in each other's eyes.
Yes, Ling Xue decided to use money to clear the way!
However, before Ling Xue's silver magic could be used, the city gate opened wide!
Ling Xue and Shen Zhen looked up and saw that it was the Shen family's servants from Fucheng who came to greet Shen Li and Shen Zhen.
The stewards in Fucheng were all Shen Zhen's people, and they had already received news of the young master's arrival. But after learning that the young master was blocked outside the city gate, they began to think of a way. Before they could get through the door, they learned that the prefect had escaped with his family.
Come on, now they don't need to spend money, they can just open the city gate.
As soon as the Shen family servants opened the city gate, they saw Manager Shen Zhen riding a tall horse and a handsome young master. They all knew Manager Shen, so the other one must be Young Master Shen Li and Shen.
"I've seen the young master!"
Hundreds of servants hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and fell to their knees in front of Ling Xue. The scene was simply outrageous.
So many people saluted in unison, and the sound was still very loud, and the refugees who were far away could hear it clearly.
When the onlookers and refugees saw this scene, they felt more and more that Ling Xue was no ordinary person. He had captured a city without wasting a single soldier!
Ling Xue still didn't know what people outside thought at this time. She didn't want to eat dirt outside the city all the time. So, Ling Xue responded loudly: "Excuse me!"
She didn't know that her straightforward response made the servants in Fucheng feel at ease, as she was now in charge.
Originally, they all belonged to the head of the family, but where was the head of the family at this time? They don’t even know how to run or where to run?
As servants with an owner, it would be hard to live anywhere because they were slaves.
