When Lan Ziyi entered Beijing the day before yesterday, Timoshenge had already asked very sharp questions, and Lan Ziyi was tired of dealing with them at that time, and now Timoshenge mentioned such a scathing topic as the disaster victims, and Lan Ziyi didn't have the heart to answer.

When Lan Ziyi bowed his head to avoid, Zhang Yanwu opened his mouth and said:

"At present, the north and south of Taisho are suffering from disasters everywhere, floods and droughts, and disasters are continuous, and the people are indeed living in dire straits, but Brother Tiemu said that we Taisho have the money to repair the capital, but we have no money to help the people, which is too extreme. Now you see the capital city is not built in a day, nor in these days of famine construction, this capital has been built since the founding of the dynasty, before and after it took 20 years to complete the city wall, to have the prosperous scene you see today is also my Taizheng lasted two hundred years little by little accumulation, this little by little, brick by brick accumulation of things of course cost a lot of people's fat and people's cream, but now the capital has been built, even if the city is demolished, It is impossible to take the bricks and tiles that have been removed to fill the stomachs of the victims. “

When Timoshenge asked a question, he kept looking at Lan Ziyi, he wanted to hear Lan Ziyi's answer to this question, but Lan Ziyi avoided answering and silently avoided the question. Zhang Yanwu did not experience the matter of sending off and buying people yesterday, he inadvertently took the initiative to relieve Lan Ziyi, and when someone answered, it was naturally difficult for Brother Timoxin to continue to ask Lan Ziyi.

However, Brother Temoshenge didn't come to trouble someone today, although he wanted to hear Lan Ziyi's answer, but Zhang Yanwu's answer was not impossible, so Brother Temoshenge turned to talk to Zhang Yanwu, he said:

"I know what Zhang Gongzi said about bricks, tiles, walls, etc., and that thing must not be taken to people to eat. But the problem is that there is no shortage of food in your capital, the people have food and drink, and the people in other places outside the capital are starving to death. ”

Zhang Yanwu said:

"There is grain in the capital because the grain in the world will eventually be handed over to the capital, as long as the capital is not besieged, the people here will definitely have food to eat. Other places are affected by disasters, and there will inevitably be famine in a short time, and the imperial court has already ordered that food will be distributed from Taicang and Heping Chengcang, and the situation of people dying of starvation mentioned by Brother Tiemu will improve in a few days. “

Temoshenko frowned when he heard this, and he asked suspiciously:

"If what Zhang Gongzi said is true, then why can I still see people fleeing in droves on the way here?"

Zhang Yanwu asked:

"Fleeing in droves? No, the government and the people's grain ships are now heading to foreign roads day and night, even if the local food is insufficient, it will not be at all, how can there be people fleeing in groups? Where did Brother Temu see the victims? ”

Timoshenko said:

"It's the river I passed when I went south to Beijing."

This time it was Zhang Yanwu's turn to be surprised, and he said:

"The river ** is the hub of the world, the traffic extends in all directions, and the territory is full of plains, and there is no food in other provinces, how can there be no food in Heyin?"

Zhang Yanwu asked like this, and if he continued, he would inevitably mention the old capital Taishou Luo Yingmin, which was not what Lan Ziyi wanted to see, and at this time Lan Ziyi hurriedly interjected:

"Although the river ** is in the world, but the land route is the majority, the current drought, the river is dry, and the waterway is not passable when the grain transportation is naturally difficult. Moreover, during the Northern Expedition last year, Heyin was constantly supplied with food and wages, and this time the affected officials, families and people have no food, so the people will be displaced, and the disaster will look so serious. ”

Zhang Yanwu is still young in the end, and he has no scheming, he is not sensitive to politics, Lan Ziyi said this, Zhang Yanwu nodded and did not ask again. But Timoshengo was different, he sniffed out Lan Ziyi's strangeness, so he asked:

"Anda, is the disaster just looking serious?"

Lan Ziyi looked back at Temushenge and said:

"Anda, I have mediated in the middle, and I have been maneuvering for a long time, and the matter has been handled by me, and the food will be transported into Heyin in a few days, and there will be no more displaced people fleeing to survive in the famine, and there will never be again."

Hearing this, Brother Timoshenge avoided Lan Ziyi's gaze, he lowered his head and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, and said with a smile:

"Anda, don't be so serious, your Dazheng affairs have nothing to do with me, whether there are displaced people or not actually doesn't have much to do with me, I'm just curious to ask."

Saying this did not relieve the tension in Lan Ziyi's heart, Lan Ziyi asked:

"Temuanda, what happened to the hungry people you bought?"

Timoshenko said:

"Of course, I will continue to serve my master as a slave. We entered the Honglu Temple, and not the Bao'en Temple, no monks, of course it is no problem to bring a few slaves, the adults of the Honglu Temple arranged a place for the slaves we brought to live, and they are fine. ”

Lan Ziyi sighed softly when he heard this, and then lowered his head and poured himself a glass. Lan Ziyi thought that so many people went to Honglu Temple, and Honglu Temple would find a way to redeem those poor people, but he didn't expect that the people of Honglu Temple did nothing.

Brother Timoshenge said so many things about the river **, which successfully aroused Zhang Yanwu's interest, Zhang Yanwu filled a bowl of wine for Brother Temoshenge, and then raised a glass to invite the two people at the same table to touch another glass, after drinking Zhang Yanwu asked Brother Timoshenge:

Brother Temu spoke very aggressively, and he didn't expect to ask questions so carefully. Why is Brother Temu so interested in the disaster victims and the affairs of the river **? ”

Timoshenko clinked glasses and drank the wine, then filled himself with another glass, and he smiled:

"I'm not only interested in the disaster victims and the things in Hein, I'm also interested in the things of your Taisho."

Zhang Yanwu asked:

"Why?"

After drinking the wine in the bowl, Timoshenko said:

"I used to think that the most powerful thing in the world is the grassland, the entire northern steppe, from the East China Sea to the West Sea, from the Great Gobi in the south to the great forest in the north, such a vast land is all ruled by the Khanate of the Khanat, the tribe of the Raka has millions of people, and their warriors are hundreds of thousands, they used to be the strongest. But just half a year ago, this behemoth was defeated by your Daigong of Taisho, I thought that your Daigong was already the strongest tribe of your Taisho, but then I learned that the people of Daigong instructed a part of your Taisho army, Xiang Daigong and his Beizhen warriors such a strong army, you Taisho still have a lot of them. “

Zhang Yanwu said:

"So Brother Temu is curious about why Taisho is strong?"

Temushenko shook his head and said:

"No, I'm not curious about the strength of Taisho, I'm worshipping the strength of Taisho. In the grassland, only the strong are qualified to live, and only the strongest can become leaders. I'm not the strongest, I'm not strong enough, I want to know how I can get stronger, get stronger, become the strongest. So when the others heard that they were going to enter Kyoto, they were very reluctant, but I rushed to Kyoto as soon as I got the news. ”

Zhang Yanwu took a bite of the dish, swallowed it with wine, and said:

"In fact, Taizheng and the grassland are almost the same, only the strongest can become the Son of Heaven, but your grassland will have to change a strongman every three or five times, and my Taizheng will go on for thousands of generations after a generation of true destiny, although there is no dynasty or generation that is really evergreen."

When Lan Ziyi heard this, he seriously admonished Zhang Yanwu:

"Zhang Gongzi, you drank too much."

Zhang Yanwu smiled and said:

"My grandfather always scolded me for having a big mouth and talking nonsense, if Wei Hou hadn't persuaded me in time and didn't let me go crazy, it is estimated that my grandfather would have locked me up for a year. I don't think I can get rid of this problem in my life. ”

After laughing at himself, Zhang Yanwu asked Temushenge again:

"Brother Temu worships Taisho so much, this time he was able to enter the heart of Taisho, have you learned how to become stronger?"

Timoshenko ate several mouthfuls of food in a row, he put down his chopsticks and said unhurriedly:

"No, Zhang Gongzi, I didn't learn anything useful, but I learned how weak you Dazheng is all the way."

When Lan Ziyi and Zhang Yanwu heard Brother Temuxin's words, they put down their chopsticks in unison, and the two of them turned their heads to look at Brother Temuxin, and Zhang Yanwu asked:

"Brother Temu's words are very polite."

Temoshengo smiled and rubbed a peanut into his mouth, and said:

"This peanut is a rare thing on the grassland, I didn't expect that you can eat it casually in your Taisho capital, and it was still during the famine.

I know that you are upright people and have a good face, and you only like to listen to good things and don't like to listen to bad words, but you have also seen it yourself, and now you Taizheng is from north to south, and there are disasters everywhere, and people who have no food to eat and are hungry can only pawn themselves. I don't see where you are. Your capital is full of wine and wine, and you are not happy, but not all of your towns are capitals. “

Lan Ziyi smiled and said:

"Temu Anda, there is no covetousness for my Taisho in your words."

Timoshenko smiled:

"Ziyi Anda, it's not right for you to say that, first of all, even if someone on the grassland has a mind about Taisho, it's not me, my tribe doesn't have enough people to defend against the people around me, how can I have the heart to rob Taisho; Secondly, the first hurdle I passed when I went south was the Luoyan Pass guarded by your old man, and I could see clearly the tens of thousands of elite iron horsemen in the Luoyan Pass, even if I pressed the bear's heart and leopard guts, I wouldn't dare to fight against such an opponent! ”

Zhang Yanwu smiled at this time:

"You are a Tartar, and you dare to say that we are righteous people with a lot of flowers and intestines, I think you are the one who smears honey in your mouth, and only says good things, your words not only exaggerate Dazheng, but also praise the acting father, it is really clever."

Zhang Yanwu said that the three of them laughed, and then everyone drank again.

The atmosphere on the table was heated up a lot after this round of drinking, and Timoshenge then asked vigorously:

"Anda, Zhang Gongzi, I have a question that I have been thinking about for a long time, although I have my own answer, but I also want to hear your opinions. What do you say it takes to be a qualified king? ”
