I am the emperor in Nanyang, I am the ultimate winner
Chapter 47 Subsidy Incident (Part )
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye Xiaohong and Erniu had boarded the train to Fenglin City.
Because Xiaohong suffers from cerebral palsy and has some difficulty speaking and moving, she has become the focus of attention in the carriage.
Many passengers looked at her from time to time, but they only glanced at her briefly before quickly looking away, secretly pitying the unfortunate girl in their hearts.
Erniu sat by the window, gazing at the beautiful scenery passing by outside the window, and said excitedly to Xiaohong beside him: "Sister Xiaohong, look! The scenery outside is so beautiful!"
Xiaohong looked in the direction of his finger, with a hint of a smile on her face: "Yes, Erniu, we will be able to reach Fenglin City soon."
However, after the joy, realistic problems came to mind again.
Erniu frowned and asked worriedly, "But what should we do after we arrive in Fenglin City? After all, we don't have much money on us."
Xiao Hong comforted him, "It's okay, as long as you use it sparingly, it will still last for a while."
"If there is really no other way, I will go out and beg for food. I believe there will always be kind people willing to help us."
Hearing this, Erniu's face flushed with excitement, and he quickly waved his hands to refuse: "No! We must not let Sister Xiaohong go begging!"
"Even if I have to work like a slave, I will never let Sister Xiaohong suffer such an injustice!"
Faced with Erniu's firm attitude, Xiaohong smiled helplessly and expressed her understanding.
Afterwards, the two fell into silence, each thinking about their future plans.
As the train continued to move forward, they gradually became tired of chatting and fell asleep unknowingly.
With the sound of the whistle, the train finally arrived at the station, and Xiaohong got off the train with the help of Erniu.
They stood on the train platform, looking around blankly, not knowing where to go next.
"What should we do now?" Erniu asked anxiously, "We are not familiar with this place at all!"
Xiao Hong gritted her teeth and said, "Let's find a place to ask for directions first. We'll always be able to find the direction."
So they started walking and asking passers-by, hoping to get some guidance.
After some effort, a kind-hearted person finally told them the approximate location of the palace.
With the help of kind people, they soon arrived near the palace.
Xiaohong thought: "Maybe I can find a solution to the problem here."
"After all, it's impossible for such a thing to happen under the emperor's feet."
"These corrupt officials would never dare to put their hands under the emperor's feet!"
As they approached the palace, Erniu couldn't help but become nervous when he saw the majestic guards in front of the palace gate.
He looked at Xiaohong and asked worriedly, "Sister Xiaohong, do we really want to go there? Maybe they will chase us away!"
Xiao Hong nodded firmly, "Now that we are here, we can't give up easily. No matter what, we have to give it a try!"
So, Erniu supported Xiaohong and walked carefully towards the gate of the palace.
At this time, the guards at the gate of the palace saw someone approaching, and immediately stepped forward alertly, blocking their way and shouting loudly: "The palace is a restricted area, no outsiders are allowed to approach!"
Xiaohong and Erniu looked at each other, then knelt on their knees without hesitation.
Xiaohong handed a bloodstained paper to the guard with trembling hands.
She cried with tears streaming down her face: "Please have mercy, Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!"
“The head of our village killed my brother and cancelled my subsidy.”
The guard frowned and replied coldly: "Leave here immediately!"
"You can go to your local government to deal with this matter. These matters are not under our jurisdiction."
After hearing this, Erniu cried even harder, his voice miserable and sad: "Please, my sister has cerebral palsy and can't take care of herself. It's even difficult for her to walk and talk."
"We came all the way here just to get an explanation."
"But they protect each other and don't give us any chance to live!"
In fact, Xiaohong can go directly to the county government to seek help.
After all, there are many system officials in the county government, and they should be able to handle this matter fairly.
If the county government cannot solve the problem, it can continue to report the situation to the provincial government.
However, in Xiaohong's mind, there is not much difference between officials in these places.
She believes that they are all the same corrupt officials as in the past and cannot be trusted.
That's why she chose to come to the capital, hoping to get the emperor's attention and support.
At this time, some people nearby saw this situation and gathered around.
The guard realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately decided to report the matter to his superiors.
After all, Yan State was just established not long ago, and if someone comes to the palace to file a complaint, it will inevitably have a huge negative impact on society.
"These two people actually dared to come to the palace to file a complaint. It seems that their local officials are somewhat inactive!" A bystander couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah, and this girl looks like she has cerebral palsy. She's really pitiful." another person echoed.
Just then, an officer stepped out from the crowd.
He said to the two men with a serious expression: "I already understand your situation, but Your Majesty is very busy and has to deal with state affairs every day. He really has no time to deal with such trivial matters."
"But don't worry, we will thoroughly investigate this matter and give you a satisfactory answer."
"So, please go home and wait for news."
After hearing this, Xiaohong mistakenly thought that the officer was just trying to please her.
She begged with tears in her eyes: "Sir, please help me!"
"I came here to file a complaint out of necessity."
"If I go back now and get discovered by the village chief, I'll be dead!"
However, no matter how Xiaohong begged, the officer remained unmoved.
He just waved his hand indifferently, signaling the two to leave quickly.
After all, the duty of these guards is only to protect the palace, and they don't care about other things.
At this time, Minister of Education Zhao Yunlan arrived at the gate of the palace. He came to report some things to the emperor.
However, when he saw what was happening at the gate of the palace, he couldn't help but feel doubtful.
So he immediately asked the people around him about the situation.
After understanding the whole story, Minister of Education Zhao Yunlan decided to make arrangements for Xiaohong and Erniu first.
He ordered, "Take them both to a safe place and place them there. They can go home after things here are dealt with."
When Xiao Hong heard this, she felt relieved and knelt down to express her gratitude: "Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
Minister of Education Zhao Yunlan saw this and quickly helped Xiaohong up. He said gently, "No need to do that. We just need to pay our respects to our elders, parents, and the heaven and earth. Do you understand?"
After hearing this, Xiaohong nodded repeatedly, stood up and said gratefully, "Thank you."
Afterwards, the two guards took Xiaohong and Erniu away from the scene and went to a safe place to live temporarily.
Minister of Education Zhao Yunlan strode into the palace, ready to report to the emperor what had just happened.
