Emperor Chu now just wants to send away this plague god in his eyes quickly, not only because he caused trouble for the Chu State, but more importantly, he has become a stark contrast to the Emperor of Chu, one is a hero who wants to fight bloodily for the country and the people. And the other is a faint king who is timid and afraid of things, and forgets his righteousness, these two people stand together, making judgments, and the eyes of the soldiers below looking at the two are changing all the time.

Looking at Feng Xiaotian is worship and admiration, while looking at Emperor Chu is contempt and disdain, this stark contrast, anyone can see it, how can Emperor Chu, who has been the emperor for many years, not see it, but the law does not blame the public, and now it is a critical period, he has to be cheeky and bear the contempt of everyone.

It is conceivable that for the current Chu Emperor, every minute and second is torment, but he has nowhere to vent, so he can only put this resentment on Feng Xiaotian, and can't help but say angrily: "I have already made an order, why don't you leave?"

The reason why Feng Xiaotian didn't leave was that he wanted to disgust him a little, his eyes rolled, and he thought about it: "It's not that I don't want to go, but there is still one thing to be done." ”

"Oh, what's the matter?" asked Emperor Chu with some curiosity.

At this time, the queen on the side said: "Feng Xiaotian, you don't want to get an inch, Your Majesty is willing to forgive your sins and entrust you with a heavy responsibility, it is a great gift, what do you want now?"

Feng Xiaotian was very speechless about his biological mother, obviously he was biological, he had a little smile on himself before he was six years old, and he immediately changed a person after the age of six, not only did he send the frontier to fend for himself, but now he is also very disgusted, is family affection worthless in her?

But thinking about it, the son she valued most in the past was the former prince, but at that time, she hated him for calculating herself, and cut that kid mercilessly.

Although Feng Xiaotian and her have the reality of mother and son, they can get together less and leave more, and naturally they can't compare with that kid in terms of feelings, but Feng Xiaotian is still holding a sulk, angry that they threw themselves out, and for many years, they didn't even give him a letter.

In retrospect, if he hadn't cut the former prince, I'm afraid that the queen mother would have forgotten who she was, and now the relationship between the two is even more tense, out of a trace of awe of his biological mother, he didn't contradict her, but chose to ignore her, anyway, the relationship is already very bad, and he doesn't care about this.

He turned his face to Emperor Chu and said: "Your Majesty, I want to leave, but there is still one thing that has not been solved at the moment, that is, the problem of officials at all levels, I understand very well that you have taken the troops away, but what does it mean that you take away the officials at all levels who are responsible for the people's livelihood and management? Do you know that there is a great chaos in various places now, and the people have become a pot of porridge without the restraint of law enforcers. ”

After hearing this, Emperor Chu said bluntly: "They are all important ministers of the imperial court, and they are important talents that I must protect, what's wrong with taking them away to protect them?"

Feng Xiaotian was very disdainful of this explanation, and pouted: "Don't you blush when you say this? Look at these so-called important ministers of the imperial court and high-ranking talents around you? One by one, they eat with a big belly, their brains are full of fat, they don't do a few good things for the country and the people, they fight for their own benefits, they are more diligent than anyone else, corruption and bribery are commonplace for them, there are no less than 30 corrupt officials I know, and the rest of the people are not clean.

To tell you the truth, any one of these officials is enough to be sentenced to death, and you still say that they are talents? This is really a big joke. ”

Regarding Feng Xiaotian's words, the officials had the heart to defend themselves, but they didn't know how to speak. In the past, the officials who were responsible for providing food and grass to Feng Xiaotian were exploited layer by layer for their own interests, and what really came to Feng Xiaotian and their hands was less than thirty percent of what they should have.

That time when he came back, he had the heart to sue the emperor, but he was delayed by a lot of things, and now he has the opportunity to bring it up, for his words, Emperor Chu is also very embarrassed, and he knows that the officials are corrupt, but for the sake of the overall situation, he did not delve into it, as long as it is not too much, he doesn't care too much, but today he was pointed out in front of him, so his face was a little unbearable, and he said angrily: "Then what do you want?"

Feng Xiaotian said: "I don't want to do anything, I know that although there are pests among the officials, there are still some loyal people who serve the country and the people, but they are too upright, so that they have no hope of promotion, and today I just want to give them a chance." ”

"What chance?" asked Emperor Chu with some concern.

Feng Xiaotian said with a smile: Actually, it's nothing, I'll wait on the hillside over there later, but any good official who has a conscience and wants to make a living for the people of Chu can come there to find me, I will arrange a good official position for them, and take them back to China to ensure their safety. If you don't have this heart, I'll go with you, I don't need that kind of pest, it's two hours long, and if it's outdated, what's the matter?

Emperor Chu thought about it, and he really wanted to drive Feng Xiaotian away now, so he happily agreed: "Okay, you can wait, but we have to continue on the road, you can wait there slowly." ”

In order to attract more talents, Feng Xiaotian prepared a large volume of documents, and made it into a big banner to hang there, which read: "Chu State has a great disaster today, the people are in dire straits, if there is a sincere desire to benefit the people, come here to gather., I will ensure the safety of his family, and it will be smooth in the future." “

Approximately this meaning, for this matter, Feng Xiaotian chose the willing person to take the bait., and did not force it, as the so-called adversity sees the truth, in this moment of crisis, those who can ignore their personal safety are the real pillars of the country.

After waiting for a while, what Feng Xiaotian didn't expect was that the first batch of people to come was not officials, but a group of soldiers, all of whom had parents, wives and children to take care of at home, so for the sake of their families, they came here to take refuge regardless of life and death.

With the first batch, there will be a second batch, and then more and more, and after half an hour, only five or six officials came, but the soldiers came almost twenty thousand. This made Emperor Chu a little unable to sit still, and he didn't take the carriage anymore, so he flew and rode to Feng Xiaotian.

Looking at this crowd, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Feng Xiaotian, what are you doing?"

Feng Xiaotian looked at Emperor Chu with an angry face on his face, and said in a flat tone: "What are you doing? Of course it's recruiting people, you have transferred all the big and small officials in the city, leaving a group of people for me, what do you want me to do? Can't even some trivial things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, and need me to deal with them personally, right? Can't I recruit a few officials who manage people's livelihood, finance, grain and grass, and military equipment?"

In order to prevent Feng Xiaotian's team from continuing to expand, Emperor Chu gritted his teeth and said: "Don't you want officials?

"Yes," the man below replied neatly.

It didn't take long for a group of people to gather in the open space on the side, they were all civil officials, all of them were weak and impassive, and they were all up and down in their hearts for Emperor Chu's orders, and they all lowered their heads, for fear of being chosen by Feng Xiaotian, and then go back to die.

For cowards like them, Feng Xiaotian was very disdainful in his heart, but there was no way that time was pressing now, he didn't have time to select new talents, and now experience was also very important, with them, he could quickly get started and quell the civil strife, so as not to make Feng Xiaotian worry about the instability of internal affairs.

Feng Xiaotian looked at them again, although most of them lowered their heads, there were still more than a dozen people with their heads held high and their eyes firm, but these people all had one characteristic, that is, their official positions were low, there were six middle-level officials, and the rest were lower-ranking officials.

Feng Xiaotian knows that these people are exactly what he is looking for, he has a heart and a sense of justice, and he hates violations of law and discipline and intrigue, and this kind of person often restrains himself with extremely high moral standards, and is very shameful for that kind of villainous behavior.

But society is a big dye vat, spotless, standing out from the crowd, often jealous, make themselves hit a wall everywhere, if they want to be promoted, in addition to relying on strong family power., but also have enough personal strength.

These two are indispensable, which is why there are few upright officials in the middle rank.

Emperor Chu naturally also saw those people, and they were all lower-ranking officials at a glance, so he didn't care much, and waved his big hand and said: "If you want to go with Feng Xiaotian, I forgive you for your innocence." “

After saying that, those people strode out, not only them, but also some soldiers and generals also ran towards Feng Xiaotian after hearing this, which made Emperor Chu a little unable to sit still, and said loudly: "I am talking about officials, not you! From now on., there are soldiers and officers who run to Feng Xiaotian's side and will be punished for desertion!"

After hearing this, the footsteps of the gang stopped, and they retreated to the rear with an unwilling face, they had already gone, but they didn't move, and the Chu Emperor didn't want to pursue it, obviously the 20,000 soldiers were given to him by the Chu Emperor.

After everything was over, Feng Xiaotian was satisfied, and took this group of people to the national capital, while the Chu Emperor and they continued to move forward, the two sides parted with each other, and in the future, I am afraid that it will be the relationship between father and son, and it will be cut off. The King of Jin on the side hated Feng Xiaotian for itching teeth, but thinking of his strength, he could only swallow his breath first, and he was secretly proud that he could follow his father, thinking that he would be the best choice for the future crown prince, so he showed a smile.

The queen who was traveling with her also had complicated eyes, glanced at Feng Xiaotian, and thought that she had never cared for him, but he killed his own brother, such an act made her absolutely intolerable, and now that she saw him gone, the queen would treat him as if he was dead, and she would never pay attention to him again in the future.

The team of people and horses are walking, with their foot strength want to go back, not to mention it will take a day, if there is no water and no food on this day, I am afraid that these people will be tired and fall a lot, Feng Xiaotian thought for a while, it is better to refine a marching car to travel, fortunately, he found a lot of good things from the treasure house of the Tang Kingdom, and it is not difficult to make such a thing.

After rummaging for a while from the "instrument talisman", I finally found it, a general marching vehicle in the fairy world, a flying cloud car, as a mass-produced thing, its process is very simple, most of it is used as a means of transportation, except for the large capacity, fast speed, and no additional functions. However, they are guarded by heavenly soldiers, and they don't need any weapons.

Of course, if you are interested, you can add it yourself, but few people will do it, with those treasures and energy, they have already invested in better cars, who will invest in them.

However, this thing has become what Feng Xiaotian needs most now, he first divided the team, and then found a place where no one was around, and took out some materials. The materials in the space ring are very complete., plus he just snatched Liu Heng's ring, his materials are much more advanced than his own, not only has nearly three hundred cubic meters of storage space, but also countless pills and medicinal materials, and some gold and silver jewelry. There are so many things that the whole ring is almost full.

Roughly chosen, found a few of what he needed, and then began to refine, after all, it was the first time to refine this kind of thing, he was extremely careful., fortunately, he had experience in refining puppet people, and he didn't make any big mistakes.

In this way, under his careful protection, the "Feiyun Car" was finally refined after nearly three hours. It's just that it has been reduced a lot, and the normal Feiyun car has eight trap Pegasus, and behind it is a palace-sized space building, which can accommodate tens of millions of heavenly soldiers and divine beasts, and has good stability.

The general heavenly soldiers are tall, plus armor and weapons, they occupy five times the space of ordinary mortals, it can be said that this flying cloud car is an excellent means of transportation, mainly used to transport troops. The most important thing is that the Feiyun car can act without consuming immortal energy, the core is a spar and a gathering spirit array, as long as there is heaven and earth aura, it can act, it is simple to operate and easy to make, and it is suitable for use here.

Feng Xiaotianlian's car has only one machine horse, and behind it is a carriage of the same size as a normal carriage, with a very earthy shape, the machine horse is dark copper, and next to it are two small wings like chicken wings. Compared with the genuine high-headed horse, the width of the fairy wing is not a little bit worse, but after all, this is the first time he has made this kind of thing., and it is already quite good to succeed.

Then Feng Xiaotian sensed it, the flight altitude was about 800 meters, the flight speed was about 800 kilometers in an hour, and the carrying space was about 1,000 square meters. Although the appearance is not very beautiful, but fortunately, the practicality is very high, and now he is about to deal with the mortal war, such a thing is just right, if you can't fit it once, you can divide it a few more times.

After everything was arranged, Feng Xiaotian drove the car and caught up with the vanguard, and after seeing Feng Xiaotian driving a flying carriage, everyone was amazed, and Feng Xiaotian didn't want to explain anything to them. They have been walking for a long time, and there is no logistical supplement, and everyone is already exhausted, and they all look weak.

Feng Xiaotian controlled the Feiyun car to fall and let everyone get on the car, but looking at the narrow and small carriage, everyone present hesitated, and they really didn't know what Feng Xiaotian was doing, but he was the lord, and the lord's orders were not good to listen to. So one by one, through the small door on the side of the canopy, after entering, everyone was surprised to find that there was a hole inside, and it was a gray place.

There is a glowing spar on his head that illuminates everything, and under his feet is a transparent mask like crystal, which is very strong. Underneath the mask are layers of spatial patterns, which are used to stabilize the space.

Everyone looked at it for a while and were dizzy, such a mysterious divine pattern, it was not something they could see, in short, after more than 20,000 people came in, it was not very crowded inside, everyone was admiring the magic of His Royal Highness Feng, and discussing the origin of this thing.

It didn't take long, only a few minutes before they arrived, leaving a few officials and 20,000 soldiers, ordering them to maintain law and order in the city., and the remaining officials went with him to get back the grain and grass transported by the Tang State.

If you think about it, it is impossible for Feng Xiaotian to transport all the grain and grass in one trip, so he can only send it in several times, and then the officials will manage and distribute it to the people in various places.

On the other hand, Yuzhu and Yuqiao really lived up to Feng Xiaotian's conjecture, as soon as he left on the front foot, the two on the back foot returned to the palace and betrayed Feng Xiaotian cleanly, including the news that he had been demoted to a concubine, and Yang Guang and Fang Qiao started a new round of discussion.

Yang Guang spoke first: "Haha, let that kid be crazy, now he is a concubine, since he is no longer the prince of a country, I have nothing to be afraid of, it is better for us to break the contract and take back all the grain, so that we can save a lot of money, besides, the Han army is preparing to go to war, we will sell them grain and grass, and we are guaranteed to make a lot of money!"

Speaking of this, Yang Guang was a little eyebrows dancing.

Fang Qiao frowned deeply at this proposal, and shook his head with dissatisfaction: "Your Majesty: I advise you to dispel this idea, in the final analysis, what we are afraid of is not his identity as the prince of a small country, but his astonishing cultivation and incomparably mysterious teacher, he Feng Xiaotian has no identity, but from another point of view, he is equivalent to no restraints, when he fought with Liu Heng in the past, most of them took into account that he was the prince of a country, and he was afraid of making a mortal enemy for his country, so he did not make a dead hand.

On the contrary, he gave Liu Heng a way to live, and now he has no such identity., if he sees Liu Heng again, he is sure that Liu Heng will die! It is a very unwise decision to make a feud with such a promising master. ”

But Yang Guang obviously didn't listen to it, and said with some disdain: "Even if I break the contract, what can I do, just by himself, do you dare to rush in single-handedly and can't make a theory with me?. ”

Fang Qiao said in horror: "Your Majesty think twice! The old minister has been checking Feng Xiaotian's details all this time, but the result is not optimistic!"

"Oh?" Yang Guang asked with some curiosity, "What's wrong?"

"The old minister found out that this His Royal Highness Feng was sent to guard the border at a young age and guarded it for several years. During this period, there were constant frictions with neighboring countries, which accumulated a lot of experience for him to command the army, and then returned to China for only a few days, and he dared to kill the former prince in front of all the ministers, the emperor and the queen.

And the reason is because the former prince once wanted to murder him, he is a lord who eats soft and does not eat hard, if His Majesty has good words, it is fine, but His Majesty insists on making enemies with him, is he not afraid that he will come to retaliate?" Fang Qiao said earnestly.

"I'm afraid of him? Yang Guang was very unconvinced by this.

Fang Qiao said: "The old minister believes in His Majesty, and is naturally not afraid of him above board, but if he does not come openly, but secretly attacks like an assassin, try to ask the whole country except Bai Xian, who else can stop him, you can't live a fearful life with Bai Xian day and night, right?"

There are also princes, princesses, and concubines, he is now a person with no identity and no family, and he is not afraid of retaliation at all. But the emperor, you play with him, is this deal really worth it?"

Hearing this, Yang Guang couldn't help but shudder, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then said with a little weakness: "Which kid wouldn't play so badly, right?"

Fang Qiao asked with a calm face, "Your Majesty, what do you say?"

At that moment, a voice came from behind the main hall and said, "In my opinion, this is impossible!"

Then Yang Zhongye, the crown prince of the Tang Kingdom, strode forward, saluted first, and then said: "Father, the son did not mean to eavesdrop, but the son has been studying behind the palace, and the son has different views on the conversation between the two just now."

Fang Qiao is very dissatisfied with His Royal Highness the Prince, first of all, he is intolerant, selfish, and self-serving, if it weren't for his small belly and chicken intestines last time, and ruined his relationship with Feng Xiaotian, then Tang Guo will definitely have a top powerhouse as a backup in the future, but such an opportunity was ruined by his own hands.

Now Fang Qiao also wants to hear his high opinions, to see if he can have impressive insights., Fang Qiao said: "What is the high opinion of His Royal Highness the Prince?"

Yang Zhongye immediately said: "According to the information I have received, the Han Kingdom has dispatched thirty powerful cultivators this time, and three of them are people from the sixth layer realm, with them, Feng Xiaotian will definitely die, as long as he dies, our trade will be interrupted."

How can a mortal man add trouble to us?"

After hearing this, Yang Guang hurriedly asked, "Is the news reliable?"

Absolutely reliable Yang Zhongye affirmed, but Fang Qiao still said uneasily: "If it is really as the prince said, it's okay, but in case the Han side misses, and our side starts to turn our faces again., then our reputation in the future will be over, it is better to make a two-handed plan first, give him grain and grass first, and we will not help any of the two families, and when Feng Xiaotian is really dead, it will not be too late for us to turn our faces, so it is better than others saying that we are a big country in the central government, and we are actually treacherous for some petty profits." ”

"Prime Minister Fang's words are not right. Yang Zhongye said with some dissatisfaction: "If he is still the prince of a country, we will naturally not be able to bully him too much, but now he is just a commoner, what are we afraid of him?"

Besides, the source of his money didn't come from our pit? Now we just got it back, and as for what you said, I'm afraid that he will retaliate and something like that, then it's even more impossible. Could it be that he has other time to practice martial arts, you can see when he fights, he almost always relies on strength to crush the opponent, without any skills.

And the masters dispatched by the Han Kingdom have all practiced for many years, whether it is cultivation or martial arts, they are the top, especially those three masters, Shan Tao Feng Xiaotian is no problem, not to mention that now it is a joint effort, I dare to use my life to guarantee that Feng Xiaotian will die this time!"

"But..."Fang Qiao still wanted to say something, but before his words could be spoken, he was interrupted by Yang Zhongye: "Prime Minister, I know that you are very optimistic about Feng Xiaotian, but please don't forget your identity, you are the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, don't always grow the ambition of others and destroy your own wind!"

As soon as these words came out, Fang Qiao's face immediately became very ugly, even if he was the emperor on weekdays, he had to be polite and polite when he spoke to him. But now Yang Zhongye is so rude to himself, which can make Fang Qiao embarrassed for a while.

Yang Guang, who was in the upper seat, couldn't listen to it anymore, and said angrily: "Prince! What are you talking about! Where have you learned the etiquette on weekdays? Why don't you apologize to the prime minister quickly." ”

Yang Zhongye also realized that he seemed to have lost his temper, and immediately gave up his hand to apologize, Fang Qiao's face eased a little, but looking at Yang Zhongye's disapproving expression, he knew that he was not convinced at all.

He has been a prince for many years, and he always wants to find an opportunity to prove himself. But the more anxious he is for quick success, the easier it is to make mistakes, and he has various opinions on the decision-making of the older generation, but he has no right to participate.

And his father, this time, obviously agreed with his own ideas more, which gave him a lot of encouragement, Fang Qiao on the side looked at the father and son, sighed, knowing that no matter what he said, he couldn't say back to this result, shook his head and said: "It seems that the minister is old, Your Majesty, the old minister is unwell, and he retired first." ”

After saying that, he left without looking back, Yang Guang was also a little hesitant when he saw this, thinking about whether to think about it again, the advice of the old prime minister, but Yang Zhongye took the initiative to say: "Father, what else is there to hesitate, for a commoner to look forward and backward like this, if it is spread out, wouldn't it make the world laugh at me for being courageless, anyway, sooner or later, I have to turn my face, why pretend to be a villain and do two-faced and three-sided things?"

Yang Guang thought about it for a while, and said ruthlessly: "This matter will be handed over to you, don't let me down, if you have time, go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to apologize in person, Prime Minister Fang Cheng has made countless meritorious contributions to my Datang., he is very prestigious in the court, don't let the old ministers be cold to you, and this wise general will be indispensable in Datang in the future, do you understand?"

"Erchen obeys!" replied Yang Zhongye with his head bowed.

After leaving the main hall, he didn't pay much attention to Prime Minister Fang, but just ordered people to prepare some gifts, and then immediately rushed to the quartermaster department, stopped the grain, grass and armor that were about to be sent out of the warehouse for Feng Xiaotian, and immediately ordered someone to recover the grain that had been out of the warehouse.

Everything was done neatly, his jealousy and hatred for Feng Xiaotian was not a day or two, and now that he had a chance, how could he let it go?

On the other side, after Feng Xiaotian sent off the soldiers who had just come to take refuge several times, he arranged the officials to a suitable position, and let the soldiers guard all places, and they would stabilize the turbulent Chu State.

At this time, the officials raised an imminent problem, that is, grain and grass, the Chu Emperor did too much, in order to prevent the Han army from having supplementary supplies, he actually cut off the grain stocks in various places, and the people were also scarce in their hands. The reason why there will be civil uprisings in various places, in the final analysis, is that the people can't have enough to eat, but fortunately, Feng Xiaotian had the foresight and exchanged a lot of food from Datang, which just came in handy right now.

After settling down everyone, he hurriedly flew towards Tang Guo, but he couldn't wait, and planned to get the grain himself, and he also ordered everyone in advance to prepare the grain depot for a while, so that it could be used to load grain, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Yang Zhongye's side has already stopped the weapons and armor, and most of the grain has been gone for several days, even if he sends people to chase after him, it will take two days to arrive. It is worth mentioning that this batch of grain was distributed by the emperor's order, and if you want to take it back, you must also have the emperor's gold medal.

Therefore, the flying pigeon does not count, which is equivalent to giving Feng Xiaotian a chance to grab grain, he drove the flying cloud car for only an hour, and flew to the location of the first batch of grain trucks.

Zhao Long, who happened to go to Chu State together, was also among them, so he brought him back together, everyone had a strong curiosity about this magical carriage, which was not big on the surface, but it was particularly capable of loading, even if the grain cart was bigger than the door of the carriage, but once it arrived at the door, it still went in smoothly, so there is only one explanation for the situation, that is, this carriage should be an upgraded version of the space ring., but it is more advanced than the space ring, and it can hold living creatures.

The official in charge of transporting grain was originally going to transport grain to Chu State, but when he saw Feng Xiaotian and the edict in his hand, he no longer doubted it, and let him take the grain away.
