Chapter 1187 Prestige
On the third day after taking Luoyang City, Shantong'er entered Luoyang City with the grain returned to Luocang.
The whole of Luoyang was boiling.
When Shang Ruyi walked out of the official gate, a few figures passed in front of his eyes, followed closely by a large number of people walking out of the closed door, emerging from the streets and alleys, and heading towards the house with great joy. He ran away in front, asking again as he ran: "Where? Where can I get food?"
Seeing their confusion, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but laugh.
Soon, the news of the food distribution spread throughout Luoyang. The government set up food sheds in Beishi, Nanshi and Tianjie. Each family received rations based on their population, and each person received a bucket of rice.
When Shang Ruyi heard this, he immediately took Wuxue there.
Wuxue was a little worried and advised her: "Princess, the common people have been hungry for a long time. I heard that food was distributed, and now they are all crowded into those places. I heard that His Highness King Qin also mobilized many people from outside the city. If you have people coming in, you’d better not go because you’re worried about trouble.”
But Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, I just went over to take a look."
Seeing what she said, Wuxue had no choice but to protect her and walk out. When they walked out of Demaofang where they were, there were no more people in the streets, but after turning a few turns and entering Beishi, From a distance, I could hear the roar of people over there, almost as if it was about to overturn the ceiling. When I got closer, I saw a sea of people over there, squeezing the entire wide street in Bei City to a crawl.
Wuxue originally wanted to persuade her, but when she looked up, she saw that Shang Ruyi was only walking forward. She had no choice but to take two steps forward and put her hands around Shang Ruyi to prevent others from touching her. She stumbled along the way. Finally, we reached the arbor where food was distributed.
A tall pavilion was set up here early in the morning, and three carriages were parked behind it. The grain bags piled on the carriages were as big as three hills. The good boy and several soldiers were sweating profusely from the heat. It was clearly autumn. However, each person only wore a single coat and kept shouting "Don't crowd, don't crowd." At the same time, he worked hard to load food with wooden shovels and put it into sacks for the people who were lining up.
Even if several people go into battle at the same time, the supply exceeds the demand.
The people here all have a good face, and their bodies are swollen from eating futu for too long. Their steps are sluggish, and they seem to faint and fall down at any time, but everyone is holding on with their last breath, with two red eyes. Staring at those snow-white rice grains, it seemed like I wanted to reach out from my eyes and take out those rice bags.
Seeing another push from behind, the table in front of the pergola was almost overturned.
The good boy was so anxious that he jumped on the table and shouted: "Don't panic, everyone has a share!"
However, even if the people in front could hear his voice, the people behind him would have been swallowed up by the noisy shouts. They could not hear anything and did not say anything. Seeing the people in front who got the food walking back happily, These people were even more anxious and kept pushing forward. They were about to overwhelm the pergola.
If the arbor is really overturned, these people will definitely come forward to grab food, and then there will be real chaos.
Just when the good boy was so anxious that he almost cried, Shang Ruyi saw a few young people in the crowd. They were quietly poking the waist of the person in front of them with their hands, and they kept pushing and shouting, "The food must be divided." "La", everyone around him was not anxious when he heard this, and they all stretched their necks and squeezed forward.
Seeing the crowd, they were a little uncontrollable.
Shang Ruyi whispered to Wuxue: "Go and stop those people, don't let them cause trouble."
Wuxue said: "Catch them?"
Shang Ruyi thought for a while, shook his head and said: "No, arresting people at this time can easily misunderstand the people and think that the government is arresting people randomly; besides, there are so many people now, and it is easy for big trouble to happen if there is a disturbance."
"That——"
Shang Ruyi thought for a while, then whispered a few words into Wuxue's ear. She immediately understood, turned around and got into the crowd.
Wuxue was petite but very strong. In addition, these common people were so hungry that they had very little strength. After a while, she opened a path and walked behind the young people. She watched them laughing and laughing. Stopping and pushing forward, Wuxue raised his foot and kicked someone in the hip.
"Ouch!"
The man let out a low cry, stumbled forward and fell forward, half-kneeling on the ground.
Wuxue didn't wait for him to curse, and kicked the other two young people twice in the crotch. She was so agile and strong that they were caught off guard and knocked to their knees by her kicks. These people were swearing and were about to get up when they felt a crowd behind them. It was the people behind who didn't know what was happening in front of them and kept walking forward.
These young people also panicked and shouted: "Don't crowd, don't crowd!"
He had just been causing trouble in the crowd, but now he panicked when the trouble came to him. The people around him were at a loss and wanted to stop, but the people behind him were still walking forward, pushing and shoving. Stepped on them.
At this moment, there was a burst of crying from the front——
"Mother!"
The cry was so pitiful that everyone around them stopped subconsciously. This gave them a glimmer of hope. The young people crawled up from the ground, all of them scared. Khan, I don’t dare to move anymore.
Seeing their lingering fears, Wuxue sneered.
At the same time, she also noticed something strange in front of her. She raised her head and saw that bright figure in the crowd quickly pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the place where the crying sounded. There was an old woman lying on the ground in front of the pergola, and a girl in a cloth skirt and jade hairpin was holding her and crying. It turned out that this old woman had just queued for a long time. When she saw the people in front of her receiving rice, she was already out of breath. When she got to the queue, she saw the snow-white rice grains falling down like rain. When she entered her rice bag, she smelled the fragrance of rice that she had not smelled for a long time. Her eyes widened. She suddenly reached out, grabbed a handful of uncooked rice and stuffed it into her mouth!
After chewing only a moment, she rolled her eyes, fell on her back and passed out.
"Mother! Mother——"
Her daughter knelt in front of her, crying with tears streaming down her face: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"
The good boy was frightened when he saw this scene. He jumped down from the table in a hurry, stretched out his hand to support the old woman and checked her breathing. His eyes suddenly turned red: "She has already——"
When the girl heard this, she threw herself on the old woman and burst into tears. The people around her just felt pitiful and shook their heads and sighed. But the people behind didn't know what was going on. They just heard some people crying and some sighing, thinking that the food was not enough. After that, they were even more anxious to push forward, seeing that those people were about to rush up and step on the mother and daughter.
At the critical moment, a voice shouted: "Don't be anxious, good boy, stop the people behind you!"
The good boy turned around and saw Shang Ruyi walking over quickly.
As soon as he saw her, Shantong'er's heart felt like it was holding up an Optimus Prime. He was about to call her, but Shang Ruyi could no longer care about anything else. He walked to the old woman and squatted down. People around her kept crowding forward, and when they saw that they were about to step on her, Good Tong'er immediately jumped on the table and shouted to the people in front: "Don't worry, someone has fainted here! There is plenty of food!" ”
His last sentence was shouted the loudest, which actually stabilized the people in front. Then he waved to the guards on both sides. These people also hurriedly walked back, shouting all the way, along with Wuxue in the crowd. , she kept stopping people behind her, and at the same time shouted to the back: "Someone has fainted, don't worry. There is plenty of food!"
The crowd shouted and blocked, and finally the situation was temporarily stabilized.
At the same time, Shang Ruyi helped the old woman up, and saw that her teeth were clenched, her face was gray, she was no longer breathing, and she looked like she was dead.

Her daughter cried so much that she almost fainted. Shang Ruyi looked at it for a while, but said to the girl: "Don't be anxious, it's okay."
After saying that, she looked around but couldn't find anything she could get her hands on, so she simply pulled out a hairpin from her head, put it into the old woman's mouth to pry open her teeth, and at the same time took out the rice she stuffed into her mouth. , while saying to the girl: "Hurry up and pat your mother on the back!"
The girl's face was filled with tears and she was still in a daze: "Huh?"
Shang Ruyi said: "Give her a pat on the back, I'm saving her life!"
Hearing what she said, the girl came back to her senses and hurriedly stretched out her hand to slap her mother's back hard. Just hearing the sound of "dong dong", the old woman was so hungry that she was all skin and bones, and the bones in her back were high and slapping. The voice sounded extremely hollow.
He just listened again and again, and finally, at the seventh blow, the old woman suddenly opened her mouth and spit out all the rice grains that had been swallowed in her throat with a "wow" sound.
But it sprayed all over Shang Ruyi.
Then, she coughed violently and couldn't straighten up. The girl's eyes suddenly lit up, and she hugged her with surprise and joy: "Mom! Mom, you're okay!"
The old woman was still in a daze. She looked at Shang Ruyi blankly for a while, then turned to look at her again: "Nier, what's wrong?"
Shang Ruyi reached out and patted his clothes, and then said: "You were so hungry just now that you ate uncooked rice and choked. This is not possible. You have been hungry for too long. Even if you take this rice back, you will not be able to eat it." It’s best to make it into soup, otherwise it will burst.”
After saying that, she stood up and said loudly to the people behind her: "Listen, take these rice back, a handful of rice and a bowl of water, boil the rice oil before eating, so as not to hurt your stomach, otherwise you It will be like her.”
The people around her were shocked by this scene. They were shocked, frightened and respectful, and they only nodded numbly at her.
Some people also whispered: "Who is she?"
Just as she was talking, someone from behind pushed forward again, and several common people almost squeezed in front of Shang Ruyi. Shantong'er was startled and jumped down from the table to stop her: "Princess, be careful. ! ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this shout.
"Princess?"
"It's the princess! Princess Qin!"
"Meet the princess!"
Everyone was in awe and gratitude, and knelt down towards her one after another. For a while, people on the long street knelt down one after another amidst the shouts of "Princess Qin", facing the dignified and bright lady in front, who was like a living Bodhisattva. The noble lady kowtowed and said: "Meet Princess Qin..."
"Meet Princess Qin!"
"The princess is a thousand years old!"
The sound shook the sky.
