"Meng is a small county magistrate. I don't know how I can help you?"
When he heard this, Meng Weiwei understood. Although he didn't know the other people, Meng Weiwei, who calmed down a little when he saw that they were all wearing close-fitting soft armor, still thought about it at this moment, and his words were naturally full of twists and turns.
Although these people were not from the military academy in the capital, they were wearing soft armor organized by the capital. It was obvious that they were either deliberately concealing their identities or pretending to be soldiers from the capital.
Although Meng Weiwei had little contact with the generals in the capital, Huayang County was at least one of the two major counties under its jurisdiction. Meng Weiwei would inevitably interact with the city patrols and even the imperial guards in the capital.
So when I saw this situation at the moment, although I didn't think of anything else, I gradually began to believe that this could be a plainclothes man from the East Palace!
What on earth does the prince want to do?
This is the biggest question in Meng Weiwei's mind. Even though he belongs to a family with a national surname, he still does not have the ability to fully contact Prince Meng Xuan. Otherwise, with the methods of the average religion, I am afraid that even in his capacity as county magistrate, he would have been arrested long ago and taken to Lingnan together.
Seeing the faces of these people on the third floor, Meng Weiwei thought that he would occasionally go through the motions in the capital. But these people in front of me are very strange, and they obviously have no memory at all.
This summer night, Jinguan City is destined to have another sleepless night!
He seemed to be vaguely aware of the situation in the north. When Meng Weiwei glanced out the window, his eyes became frightened for the first time.
A fire suddenly broke out in Beicang Camp in the capital. It can be said that in a short period of time, the whole city of Jinguan City was shocked. The sound of police gongs sounded everywhere, and gradually the sound of people running through the water also came!
It was a hot day, and looking at the fire that turned half the sky red, we knew that the fire was so fierce that it was not a problem that a few people could solve.
Although many people didn't know what caused it, looking at the huge fire, everyone felt vaguely that something was wrong.
Historically, vassal towns in various places have been like beasts with their mouths wide open to the common people. No matter how good a feudal warlord is, he must rely on the taxes of the common people to survive. The materials and property stored in warehouses in various places are the lifeblood of the feudal town's survival.
Although Jinguan City is not a vassal town, it is a strategic place in the middle of Shu and is also the capital of Shu. It has a lot of supplies. Although these materials do not seem to have anything to do with the people of Jinguan City. But how many people have been fed by the circulation, transportation and distribution of these materials?
The intensity of the fire was so alarming, although I didn't know exactly what was burned or how much material was lost. Moreover, anyone who knows about the various supplies piled up in the north warehouse camp knows that the distance between each warehouse is only a few meters.
If the fire spreads due to the intensity of the fire, I'm afraid the entire Beicang will be destroyed.
So don't talk about the worries after the fire. Whether it was the panic among the people in the city or the alarm among the refugees outside the city, there were also some inexplicable worries for individuals. Because this kind of imperial material was burned, the emperor would naturally be held accountable in the end.
There had been no major events in Shu for a long time. The last time the Banner Cult attacked the imperial dynasty, it caused an uproar in the capital. In the end, the emperor issued a decree and the prince came to take charge of the affairs. But if a fire breaks out this time, I don’t know what will happen.
After all, many people in the city can rely on Beicang to survive and find food, especially the common people living here in Beimen. Although those refugees outside the city cannot legally enter the city, they can occasionally have some opportunities.
Because Beicang's materials need to be sent to the city from time to time, and even the year of material storage needs to be adjusted. These are some characteristics of Okura in the past. You must know that the world was in chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty. The Wagang Army opened the imperial granary and dispersed supplies for a month. You can imagine the importance of these large warehouses and the richness of materials.
Nowadays, Jinguan City needs to transport supplies. If there are not enough people in the city to contribute, they will always go out of the city to find some homeless people who have physical strength and can help with the work. These refugees have very little income, but as long as they get one or two rations, they can feed several families, so everyone is obviously more anxious.
At this time, many people in the city knew that the fire broke out in Beicang, and everyone rushed to the streets in great anxiety. Because the sky had just darkened at this time, people outside the city could not come in, and people in the city could not get out. Everyone could only see this direction from a distance.
Although many people are not sure at this moment that the fire started in Beicang, they still feel panicked when they feel the fire reaching into the sky.
You must know that the Beicang Camp in Jinguan City is a special place near the capital, and it is guarded by the heavily guarded Beicang Camp of the Forbidden Army. Not to mention that ordinary people can't get close at all, even if they have this intention, it will be difficult for them to pass the pass in Beiying.
So for those who thought about this at this time, when they thought that such a huge fire would occur in the heavily guarded Beiying, the matter must not be that simple. For a time, there seemed to be a strange atmosphere in the entire capital. Although the doorway is not revealed, it still makes people feel depressed.
Not to mention how many officials at all levels from Shuzhong are still in Jinguan City now. Those important figures of rank five and above were almost all caught in one fell swoop. Even if there are some idle people who are still in office, they are arranged to be monitored by people from the average religion, so without instructions from the average religion, these people will not act at all.
Meng Weiwei was also under surveillance here, he was the newly appointed county captain. It's a pity that he has been killed by Sun Limin's people, and Meng Weiwei himself is not in good condition now.
The big families here who received the information first sent their servants to investigate to see what the cause was. After all, there was a fire in the palace not long ago, and now there is another fire in Beicang, Beiying. I don't know how many people will be killed.
These people's sense of smell is still very sensitive, and this keen perception determines survival, or whether they hope to obtain some benefits from it. Naturally, they don't know what is happening here in Jubin Building. No matter who is in charge of Jinguan City, they will only live for their own existence.
People in this world, as long as they are motivated by profit, may be the same everywhere.
Thinking of the supplies and hoarding in Beicang Camp, many people looked at the fire and sighed, but there was nothing they could do.
It’s not that no one went to put out the fire, but many people wanted to put out the fire. First of all, the defender in charge of the north city gate must lock the door. In addition, after the fire broke out, the city patrol officers in the city received the orders one after another, and immediately led the city patrol team to pass the orders in the city, strictly prohibiting the people. riot and go to support.
As for the watchmen on each street, they went from house to house shouting and beating gongs, calling on everyone to stay at home and not move.
This all seems a little weird!
