Chapter 44: Chaos

Sioux County, Mystic Valley.

The mission failed, and Su Tu was rescued by a mysterious man. ”

In front of the Smoke and Rain Pavilion, four armored figures gathered together, their faces embarrassed and their hearts full of panic.

They all knew that the serious consequences of the failure of the mission, Su Tu, as the local governor and the dignified general of the second rank, was assassinated in his own territory, and if this was spread, I am afraid that some people would be alarmed.

If he stabbed the imperial court and was known by Yu Tianming, within three days, a large number of masters would rush to Nanzhou to investigate the matter thoroughly.

At that point, they will be in danger!

Moreover, they still have a doubt in their hearts, who is the person who rescued Su Tu?

"All plans suspended, December 10, start the second step of the plan ......"

The lights flickered, and the message was delivered.

The four armored figures shuddered, relaxed, remembered the plan, their indifferent eyes became hot, and they clasped their fists in respect and disappeared.

At the other end of the lamp, the dark chamber.

"Being able to save Su Tu from the hands of the five real secret guards, this mysterious person is mostly an immortal powerhouse, but Nanzhou forbids immortals to enter the ...... because of Nantianmen."

"Then who is this immortal, who dares to violate the laws of the empire and is not bound by the fortune of the empire?"

Deng Junshan rubbed the Tianling Acupoint, looked at the information from Nanzhou, and frowned, logically speaking, there are immortals in Nanzhou who will cause luck warnings, and it is impossible for him, as an important minister in the court, not to know.

Now, he has not received the feedback of the luck warning, which shows that there are no immortal powerhouses in Nanzhou......

"No, could it be him?"

Deng Junshan thought for a while, his brows furrowed, he thought of a person who might not be bound by luck.

That person is Yu Qian......

He is the governor of the three counties of Nanzhou, and he broke through the realm of immortals not long ago.

"Bad ......"

Deng Junshan screamed secretly, his always stable complexion, with a hint of panic, he hurriedly stood up, walked out of the secret room, and disappeared into the corridor.

Then.

A gray-robed figure appeared, walked to the secret room, stared at it for a while, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and left quietly.

That day.

The second half of the night.

Imperial Palace, Eunuch Division.

The lights are bright, like daylight.

"Deng, there's really a problem. ”

The crazy father-in-law looked at the information in his hand, and the old man's face was full of venom, and his slender eyes were slightly squinted, like a poisonous snake, which was very dangerous.

After receiving the order of Yu Tian's mandate, he sent a large number of factory guards to infiltrate the Deng Mansion, and after a period of lurking, he finally made progress.

"However, this matter is very big, and our family can't decide on its own, it's still up to Your Majesty to decide. The crazy father-in-law thought, and a soft voice came out: "Come on, bathe and change clothes for our family, and our family wants to face the emperor." ”

............

What happened in Yujing, Yu Qian, who was far away in Nanzhou, naturally didn't know about it.

At this time, he was staying in the Su Tu military camp.

"My lord, heavy taxes are extremely harmful, and in the later stage of development, they will cause military rebellions, and you, as the governor, have the right to cancel heavy taxes, why don't you agree? Whether the people of Nanzhou can survive the winter depends on your words!"

Su Tu sat opposite Yu Qian, clasped his fists and prayed.

After the injury was treated, he didn't take a break, so he found Yu Qian and wanted the latter to issue an order to stop collecting taxes.

But to his surprise, Yu Qian actually refused?

"The big picture matters. ”

"What happened in Nanzhou is mainly that someone is behind the scenes, and if the official orders to stop collecting taxes, then the people behind the scenes will be alert, and even abandon the plan and continue to hide. ”

"The importance of Nanzhou, the governor must also know that for the sake of the empire, the official must catch the mastermind behind the scenes, only then will the empire have one less henchman, you should always be on guard. ”

"You know, the enemy in the open is not terrible, but the people who hide in the dark are terrible. ”

Yu Qian shook his head and said flatly.

He naturally understands the harm of heavy taxes, but as a politician and a strategist, the starting point of his consideration is different from the direction of Su Tu.

Su Tu wanted to save the people, so his vision was fixed in Nanzhou.

And he is country-oriented, and he can't put the country in danger because of the people of a state.

In his opinion, saving Nanzhou now is a big loss because of a small loss.

Of course, it's not that you can't save it, it's just that you can't do it now.

"Alas!"

Su Tu put down his hand in decadence, compared to the stability of the country, what is the people of a state?

"But the governor can rest assured, the people of Nanzhou, this official will not care, but the time has not come. ”

Yu Qian said with a smile, picked up the fragrant tea on the table, and took a sip slowly.

Su Tu nodded, and could only choose to believe.

Time passed slowly, and a month of time passed in a flash.

The court of the Central Empire is still calm, and in the mouths of officials of the DPRK and China, the country is now peaceful in all directions, the people are rich, the national strength is strong, and hundreds of millions of miles of rivers and mountains are peaceful.

But Nanzhou is gradually starting to be ominous!

A riot, in the midst of this political storm, began to brew.

The first to riot was Tian County.

At the beginning, Kong Minglan opposed the imposition of heavy taxes, and the state capital did not receive a grain of rice, Jiang Liang was very dissatisfied with this, and on the basis of the original two, he levied an additional part.

This is equivalent to stabbing a hornet's nest.

The people of Tianxian County, who had no food, only lasted for half a month, and there was no surplus food at home.

Where there is oppression, there is resistance.

After eating the bark for a few days, many bloody men in Tian County launched an uprising, captured the county government, opened the grain depot, gathered people's hearts, opened the arsenal, and recruited righteous soldiers.

In just five days, an army of 10,000 people was formed.

After Jiang Liang received the news, he smiled softly and ignored it.

In this way, the news of the success of the Tianxian uprising spread throughout the surrounding counties and caused a sensation.

With the first person to eat crabs, there will be a second.

Many people's eyes lit up, they raised their arms, pulled up many rebel teams, looted everywhere, and attacked county offices, granaries, weapons depots and other government buildings.

In this regard, Jiang Liang was still unmoved.

I don't know if it's him, the officials of the six counties, they all turn a blind eye, as if the uprising outside the city is just a farce.

"My lord, the war is rising, don't you show up?"

This made Su Tu so anxious, he had to find Yu Qian several times a day, and every time he came, he brought a bunch of bad information.

"It's useless, the big and small officials in Nanzhou are all controlled by the masterminds behind the scenes, even if the official comes forward, it will not help. ”

Yu Qian shook his head, looked at the mountains of uprising information on the table, and said helplessly: "If Governor Su can't help it, he can take appropriate action, as for whether it has any effect, this official will not say." ”

"Why?"

Su Tu was stunned for a moment and asked.

"Because you send troops, you can't succeed. ”

Yu Qian said calmly.

Su Tu's eyes flashed unconvinced, although his soldiers were not strong, they were also regular troops, could they not deal with the rebels with tattered equipment and undisciplined soldiers?

"Lord Yu, you just wait for the good news of Ben Jiang!"

Su Tu said, clenched his fists and hurriedly left.

Half an hour, the sound of horses' hooves, 30,000 troops, out of the barracks.
