The first rays of sunlight in the morning shone on the besieged city, and the people in the besieged city had just gotten up to work, while the small workshop had just stopped to rest.

“…… It's all done. ”

Zhou Zi looked at the full fertilizer bags on the ground and showed a satisfied smile.

It's not in vain that these people have been busy all night without resting, and they are in a hurry to finish all these things during the day.

However, he couldn't rest at this time, so Zhou Zi yawned again and again, and led these old farmers to the front of the official mansion with fertilizer.

This is still half an hour before the fertilizer is distributed to the people.

"Lord Zhou, why don't you go and rest for a while?" Those old farmers all took turns to come last night when making fertilizer, and they had a break in between, but Zhou Zi didn't really close his eyes.

What's more, Zhou Zi is already old, and he hasn't rested this night, and he is still holding on at this time, in case something happens to his body......

"It's okay, it's okay, don't look at me as an old man, this body has always been tough!" Zhou Zi smiled a little tiredly and said.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he stumbled and almost fell to the ground!

"Your Excellency!"

"Lord Zhou!"

The people next to Zhou Zi hurriedly supported Zhou Zi.

"It's okay, it's okay......"

Just as he was saying this, he saw two tall men walking out of the street, and at this moment, these two men were walking towards the door of the official mansion, and at the same time, their eyes were also on Zhou Zi's body.

After a while, the two of them walked in front of Zhou Zi, and at the same time saluted Zhou Zi: "May I ask if Your Excellency is Lord Zhou Zizhou?" ”

"Exactly." Zhou Zi nodded, "You two ...... when you two"

Seeing Zhou Zi's admission, the two of them smiled instantly, and the person on the left of them spoke: "In Xialu City, the masters of my family are Xiao Changye and Xia Wei. The two of them were worried that you would not be able to keep busy, so they specially asked the two of us to come and help. ”

After speaking, Huo Jia next to Lu Cheng also smiled and introduced himself: "In Xia Huo Jia, Lord Zhou can call me Xiao Jia directly." ”

After listening to the words of the two people, Zhou Zi suddenly came to his senses, and at the same time nodded a little gratefully: "I see." Miss Xia and Xiao Gongzi really have a heart! Then there are two strong men! ”

He also saluted the two of them.

"Lord Zhou looks very tired, it's better to go in and rest quickly, there are two of us watching here, Lord Zhou can rest assured." Lu Cheng saw that Zhou Zi's eyes were dark and blue, and couldn't help but say considerately.

"There are two of them, so it's natural to be relieved." Lord Zhou nodded, "It's just...... I don't know if the two strong men have anything to prove their identity? ”

Otherwise, any person said that he was Xia Wei and Xiao Changye's subordinates, so how could he tell the difference?

Although Zhou Zi felt that there should not be any idiot who would make trouble in a good manner, he still had to be careful in everything.

Hearing this, Lu Cheng and Huo Jia smiled, and then Lu Cheng took out Xiao Changye's jade pendant from his arms.

"This is our master's jade pendant, can Lord Zhou know him?" Lu Cheng brought the jade pendant closer to Zhou Zi.

This jade pendant is the jade pendant that Xiao Changye has hung on his waist in the past few days, and Zhou Zi should not forget it if he is not blind.

"Ah...... It's Xiao Gongzi's jade pendant! Sure enough, Zhou Zi quickly recognized this jade pendant, and at the same time, he completely eliminated his suspicions about Lu Cheng and Huo Jia.

He nodded, handed over the matter to Lu Cheng and Huo Jia, and then was helped back to the house in the house to rest.

I haven't rested all night, and Zhou Zi's old bones are really not good.

If you continue to toss like this, you will really have to die suddenly!

As Zhou Zi fell asleep, half an hour later, Lu Cheng and Huo Jia began to distribute fertilizer to each person according to their population, and let them water the assigned fields by themselves.

Although Xia Wei and Xiao Changye have all announced this method, how much this grain can produce in the end depends on whether the people themselves are diligent or not.

If you are lazy, how can others help you?

If it weren't for the fear that some people would starve to death before the food was harvested, Xia Wei and Xiao Changye really didn't want to set up a porridge shack - to put it mildly, they were still worried that someone would fish in troubled waters.

Even if they make a book to keep it in the register, there will still be people who want to get something for nothing.

This is normal.

Fortunately, most people were still very obedient to receive fertilizer as required, and then went back to water the fields as required, while Zhou Zi slept for several hours and was full of energy, so he would go to the fields from time to time to walk around the fields to see how the people were doing.

At the same time, Lu Cheng and Huo Jia were also sent by Xiao Changye to help.

Anyway, now Xia Wei and Xiao Changye are very leisurely, and they live a very comfortable life every day, planting vegetables and watering flowers every day, while Xiao Changye is thinking about how to cook food for Xia Wei.

The world of the two is simply not too happy. V3 Academy

It's better to send these five light bulbs out to do something.

There is no way, although the five people were asked by Xiao Changye to build a house near the cabin before, but the five people stayed not far away, although the light bulb was a little far away, it was still a little bit of a small impact, right?

Anyway, the little old man Zhou Zi was a little too busy to be alone, so he just called the five light bulbs over.

And when Xia Wei and Xiao Changye were living in the siege of the city, there were also a few changes in the capital.

Strictly speaking, it can't be regarded as an accident in the capital.

Xia Yu, who originally planned to leave within half a month, was delayed, and he probably couldn't rush back to the frontier for a while.

At this time, he was in Weiyang Palace, and all the eunuchs and palace maids in the courtyard had been ordered to retreat by Xia Lin, leaving only him and Xia Yu.

"Uncle Huang." Xia Lin sat at the stone table and looked at Xia Yu sincerely, "I heard that Uncle Huang will return to the frontier in a few days, Uncle Huang ...... May I ask you to come back a little later? ”

Xia Yu, who was dressed in a dark robe, was a little silent.

After a pause for a few seconds, he slowly sighed and looked at Xia Lin: "Your Majesty, if you have something to order, why bother like this?" ”

He also specially called him over and retired the palace maid and eunuch.

"Uncle Huang, you know me, I really respect Uncle Huang, so I naturally want to ask for your consent." Xia Lin said with a smile.

Of course, it was also because Xia Lin knew that Xia Yu would not usurp the throne, otherwise he would not be at ease to let such a dangerous figure as Xia Yu stay in the capital.

But...... This is what he thinks now, and if it is a few years from now, maybe his mind will change too.

"Your Majesty is gracious." Xia Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Your Majesty might as well say it directly, what do you need this king to stay and do." You and I are uncles and nephews, so we don't have to beat around the bush too much. ”

Xia Lin nodded: "What Uncle Huang said is reasonable. Uncle Huang, now that I have just taken power, many aspects of the court are not stable enough, and I want Uncle Huang to stay and help me. ”

As he spoke, he also stretched out his hand and pulled Xia Yu's sleeve, looking a little pitiful: "Uncle Huang, you will help me, right?" ”

To be honest, Xia Yu has the best relationship with Xia Wei in this palace, followed by Xia Lin.

Xu is because of the love of the house and Wu, because Xia Wei is very good to Xia Lin's younger brother, so Xia Yu is also much more kind to Xia Lin.

But even so, Xia Yu was still very serious when facing Xia Lin.

"Help?" Xia Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" Let's be clear. ”

He had also heard about it a few days ago.

To be honest, he didn't really believe that those ministers assassinated the emperor - who would be so brainless and dare to assassinate in such an open and honest manner in the palace?

What's more, he had also heard of it, it seemed to be a ploy set up by Xia Lin himself.

In order to catch all those ministers!

As for why...... He secretly sent someone to investigate, and finally found that those ministers seemed to have appealed to Xia Lin in the court, talking about Xia Wei's life experience.

Although he could understand Xia Lin's reluctance to Xia Wei, such behavior ......

He really didn't agree.

"Uncle Huang is such a smart person, why should he play dumb riddles with me like this?" Hearing Xia Yu's rhetorical question, Xia Lin sighed softly and said, "Although my previous actions have suppressed the government and the opposition for a period of time, my foundation is not too stable after all, and those ministers will still influence my decision-making sooner or later!" Uncle Huang, I need you, and I hope you can help me consolidate my position as emperor! ”

Xia Lin looked at Xia Yu with a very sincere gaze.

He really hoped that Xia Yu could help him.

“…… Your Majesty just said that the previous move was to calm the government and the opposition? Xia Yu looked a little indifferent, "Even if you kill chickens and monkeys, you need to kill more than a dozen ministers at once?" ”

It's a little too brutal and bloody.

"Uncle Huang, I know you think what I did was wrong." Xia Lin sighed softly, "But I had to be in love at that time!" ”

"Do you have to do it?" Xia Yu chuckled and shook his head, "Lin'er, you know best what kind of person this king is, do you really think that what you say can make this king believe?" If it was really a last resort, how could he so calmly scratch his arm to convict those ministers? ”

There have long been rumors in the palace and among the ministers, talking about assassination, and the injury was simply stabbed by Xia Lin himself!

Thinking about the situation at that time, no one believed that those ministers would have the courage to assassinate the emperor!

Even if you take 10,000 steps back, if you really want to assassinate, so many people can't kill a Xia Lin? Will it just scratch someone's arm lightly?

Although this is a bit irreversible, I have to say that it is indeed very reasonable.

"Uncle Huang......" Xia Lin bit his lip and looked at Xia Yu, with a little sadness between his eyebrows, "Uncle Huang, now you don't want to believe me?" Do you think I'm such a cruel person? ”

After all, it was a child who had grown up since he was a child, and looking at Xia Lin like this, Xia Yu was really a little unbearable.
