"Another thing, let the people of South Vietnam and Western Chu do their best to recruit well-educated people who are capable of governing the country and securing the country in the two countries, and we will definitely win them under our Cao Gang. It is also necessary to cultivate a large number of young talents for my help. ”

"Our country is full of talents, why do you go to those two countries to find it, our Eastern Dynasty?"

Finally, someone couldn't bear it anymore and asked what was in their hearts, instead of whispering and talking to each other below.

"Most of our country's talents have been found, and young talents are also being cultivated, so there is no need to waste time and energy. ”

Xiao Qing didn't give them time to discuss, and directly in the noise, Xiao Qing raised his voice.

"The most important thing is that I want everyone, all the rudders, all the financial resources, to build our own army in secret. ”

Buzz——, the hall blew up.

"What's going on? Rebellion?"

"How can we have so much money to feed the army?"

"How could this be done in secret?"

"Sima Lan will never sit still?"

"Raising an army isn't just about having money!"

"Quiet! Sima Lan has tried to harm your helper several times. Do you think that if we don't rebel and raise an army, he will let us go? On the contrary, we should raise an army and be ready to meet him. ”

The argument was much quieter.

"We have shops all over the place, and I want everyone to start hoarding food, cotton cloth, and money now. Herbs have already been prepared. We took advantage of the momentum of the rebellion of the vassal kings, and we privately collected people and goods. Sima Lan didn't have time to pay attention to us. By the time he paid attention to us, we had grown to the point where he couldn't have imagined. ”

"We put people in Sima Lan's weak place, hiding in the mountains and forests. I want this team to be a steel knife in our hands, a wonder soldier. As long as the time comes, he will insert it directly into Sima Lan's heart. ”

At this time, Xiao Qing is the king, the real king who cannot be beaten. Even the Tree King looked at Xiao Qing with his eyes wide open. Xiao Qing is not as gentle as an elf, but she is more courageous and courageous than an elf.

Mo Wu was also shocked, he didn't expect Li Gongzi to give such an order and make such an arrangement. No wonder he didn't let everyone take revenge, what substantive effect can revenge have now besides increasing casualties? It will only shrink the power of the Cao Gang.

If everyone really goes to take revenge, then when the master returns, what can he leave to the master? At that time, he can imagine how weak the Cao Gang will be. But if it is according to Li Gongzi's plan. On the day when the master really came back, what was left to the master was not a prosperous Cao Gang, but the whole world and the entire Eastern Dynasty!

What Mo didn't think of, many people also thought of. Many people couldn't believe it and looked at this young man whose aura was so powerful that he had completely conquered them. He painted them a picture of a vast prospect that had never been seen before. He is more long-term than they see.

"Subordinates obey orders!"

The word of the crowd, the sound shocks Huayu.

Xiao Qing returned to Mo Ke's residence. This time I can't sit in the yard anymore anyway. Xiao Qing asked Mo Wu to take the Tree King to his room, and he entered Mo Ke's bedroom with a nervous mood.

The room is divided into three rooms: left, middle and right. In the middle is a small activity room. The room on the left is obviously where Moke usually works, with a desk and a chair, and a bookcase against the wall. Simple and elegant. The table was facing the door, and there were many books and letters on the table.

Xiao Qing seemed to see Mo Ke raise his head from behind the book, with friendship in his eyes, so he looked at Xiao Qing silently, as if he was smiling. Xiao Qing smiled and walked over to the table, looking at him fixedly.

But inadvertently, there was only an empty chair in front of him. Xiao Qing's eyes were already moist. Xiao Qing silently touched the table with his hand and walked to the chair and sat down. was stunned, and sat stupidly until the palm lamp was ten ten. Mo Wu carried a lamp and led a little girl in. Xiao Qing came back to his senses.

"Li Gongzi, this is a little sister, named Xiaoxi. There is no maid waiting for the master here, so let Xiaoxi take care of it. ”

"How old is your sister?"

"Hui Gongzi, fourteen. ”

Xiaoxi said a little timidly.

"You just live in the wing, I'll call you if there's something. You don't usually have to come to me. ”

Xiaoxi looked at Mo Wu timidly, and Mo Wu hurriedly told her.

"You just follow Li Gongzi's orders. ”

Xiaoxi came out of the house.

"I don't like people waiting, nothing else. ”

At this time, Xiao Qing is no longer a king with a strong aura, but is lonely.

"My subordinates know! I heard Wang Shu say that you have been working hard for two months, and you have not had a good rest, so I asked people to prepare hot water, you can wash up and go to bed early! Everything in the bedroom over there is ready-made. During the day, the bed Xiaoxi has been changed. ”

Mo Wu led Xiao Qing to the room on the right. The house is just as simple. It's a bed, a table, a cupboard. Mo Wu stood at the door and hesitated, then came in and opened the wardrobe.

"Li Gongzi, these are all prepared for you and Yaya by the master's orders!"

Xiao Qing came to the cabinet, and it turned out that the cabinet was full of clothes. Yaya's, bright and beautiful. The row next to it is full of neutral clothes and hats. are all styles designed by Xiao Qing himself and made by Yurong. All kinds of colors, at first glance, are good materials, good cuts.

"It's rare that he even does the same style. When did he do it?"

Xiao Qing is heavy, and he is low. Tears swirled in his eyes, but he stubbornly didn't let them fall.

"Got people to do it as soon as they came back. The master said that when you and Yaya come back, you will definitely come here. But you don't return for a long time, and the master often opens the cabinet in a daze. Li Gongzi, master, he really cares about you? Why can't you accept your master? Master, he doesn't mind your identity as Madame Yu. ”

Mo Wu always thought that Xiao Qing didn't agree because of the woman's three obedience and four virtues.

Xiao Qing finally burst into tears.

"The subordinates have trespassed, and the subordinates will go to receive the punishment!"

"Mo Wu, no need. There are many things you don't understand, and I didn't fully understand them until today. There you go!"

Mo Wu left, Xiao Qing sat silently on the edge of the table, crying silently. Sadness, sadness, almost occupied him, tore him apart. He didn't know how to solve it.

The tree king silently entered the house and looked at Xiao Qing with teary eyes. With a long sigh, he walked over and pulled Xiao Qing up.

"Let's go!"

The two then disappeared into the house together.

Two months later, the Eastern Dynasty was in turmoil.

At first, several corrupt officials were exposed one by one. For a time, evidence and leaflets flew all over the sky, and the whole country was boiling. Sima Lan was furious and dismissed several people. However, the people were so angry that they could not calm their anger by merely removing one or two people from their posts and investigating them without investigating them thoroughly. What's more, incidents of many people perverting the law for bribes and disregarding people's lives have broken out one after another across the country.

Sima Lan finally realized that this was a big conspiracy deliberately carried out by someone, so he ordered a thorough investigation first. The people, who were already angry, saw that the government had no action, and they didn't buy it, and civil unrest broke out in many places. So it didn't take long for the flame killing order to reappear. For a time, everyone in the officialdom was in danger, and the entire country was almost paralyzed. had no choice but to use a number of well-known newcomers.

Not long after, the two vassal kings established themselves as kings and rebelled under the banner of recovering the previous dynasty and eliminating harm for the people. He also sent a message, saying that the current emperor is plotting to usurp the throne and is vicious, and even stupid people like Wu Hou have been killed. Now the entire Eastern Dynasty is even more corrupt and corrupt. How can such a person who does not have a little generosity and love for the people be a son of heaven? The text also said that Sima Lan connived at the harem to interfere in politics, and the people of the harem used the power of the previous dynasty to do evil, and did everything to achieve their goals. It is actually the root of the evil and chaotic government.

Due to the rebellion of the vassal king, officials and people everywhere were in danger, and prices soared. In particular, grain, medicinal materials, and cotton and linen products are in short supply, and even profiteers take the opportunity to hoard them, and the people cannot even guarantee their basic livelihood. For a time, the people were struggling and complaining. Especially in the places where the vassal kings did not go, the people were even more panicked, and families fled everywhere.

The officialdom is chaotic, the people are terrified, and the gangs are even more difficult. Not only is the social environment bad, but it is also suppressed and excluded everywhere. Various gangs have repeatedly reported that so-and-so is in charge, presiding, and helmsman being assassinated. The gang is panicked and lives in name only.

At this time, there were many squires and good people all over the country, lamenting the suffering of the people, giving up porridge and medicine, and the people flocked to it for a while. These squires had a high prestige among the common people. Both the emperor and the rebellious vassal kings were afraid of arousing public anger and making the situation more difficult to control, so they deliberately avoided these areas, but gave the people a place to live. It was also in these places that gradually formed the military forces of the Cao Gang.
