Chapter 88 Turmoil
Autumn harvest, the year's expectations are at this moment. However, joy sometimes hides sorrow. Because in such an era, war comes and goes.
The autumn wind rose, the grasslands in the north were not in chaos, and the war in the first half of the year was fought until the later summer before it slowly turned into a confrontation, and now I don't know when the swords will suddenly meet again.
And the original Ziyun Kingdom, and now many small countries and city-states, are in chaos, completely chaotic. I don't know who provoked it first, here and there, the other place feels that there is an opportunity, and then the ambition is growing wantonly.
Liu Feiyun looked at the letter that Liu Shuhan brought again, which talked about the current situation of Ziyun Kingdom. As soon as the war broke out, people were displaced. Some people succeeded, for example, some of the generals of the family who supported the army and respected themselves at the beginning, they were already good at fighting, at least better than those princes who had just established an army by recruitment, and many of them were defeated in the first war.
But more often than losing both, the besiegers need to be several times over, the number of armies on both sides is about the same, and the defenders obviously have a great advantage.
The letter also mentioned that the power of the valley had once again expanded greatly, and the war had brought them a high-quality population, just as it had been when Liu Feiyun was there.
"Alas, war is such a thing, even if the valley recruits personnel, how many people can be saved. Selfishness is destined to live a good life, and only a small part of it. Liu Feiyun sighed, power and ambition, when someone's desire is aroused, how can they retreat if they don't break their heads.
But stepping into the quagmire, even if you retreat, others will not let you live in peace at this time.
In the morning, Liu Feiyun saw Ji Fu, who was about to go out, and asked, "Ji Xiancheng, is the autumn harvest going well?" ”
"Your Excellency." Ji Fu saluted: "Everything is normal, the harvest will be completed in a few days, and the students are also counting the taxes that should be paid by each household, and it will be completed by the middle of the month at the latest." ”
"That's good, don't be negligent." Liu Feiyun then said with a smile: "But you don't have to worry, the people are simple, they have food and clothing, and they have a bumper harvest of grain, so they won't push and shout." ”
"Yes." Speaking of this, Ji Fu also smiled and said in admiration: "Everything is thanks to the blessings of the adults, everything went very smoothly after the students went down, and those people were very enthusiastic." ”
"I just did what I had to do, and whoever was good to them would be good to the people."
"Students understand, students obey."
Time is in the middle of the month, Ji Fu is indeed a rare talent, at least in terms of arithmetic ability, the entire county tax processing is in order, and the data statistics are extremely organized.
It's a pity that Liu Feiyun didn't plan to teach him the knowledge of modern mathematics, at least not for now. Maybe one day Ji Fu's seriousness and choice will impress him, and he may take the initiative to teach.
After a day, the autumn breeze is blowing on the way to work, and the slightest coolness is suitable for walking at such a time.
After dinner, take Lin Yuxue's hand and stroll under the flying leaves, if there are flowers at this time, how romantic it will be.
But at this time, the sunset, the geese flying south, and the sweetheart by her side, Lin Yuxue's face was full of happiness.
"Brother Yun, it's so good like this, Xiao Xue wants to be like this for the rest of her life, and she has been with Brother Yun all the time."
This is what all passionate lovers expect, together for a lifetime.
Liu Feiyun clenched her hand tightly and promised: "Don't worry, Brother Yun will always be with you, in this life, in the next life, all the time." ”
"Well, Xiaoxue believes in you."
At this time, women were much simpler than modern ones, and as long as they identified a person, they would die unswervingly.
The sunset overlaps the figures of the two, from dawn to dark, reflecting the green silk to the white head, love and sweetness always run through the two.
It's a pity that Liu Feiyun still has to go to work during the day, and he may have been a little curious before, but now, in the government all day long, it's boring and really boring.
Now that the weather is slowly getting cooler, he can finally stop staying in the monotonous mansion.
With Liu Yi, now that he has an enemy, he has only one life, and it is better to have some guarantees in this regard.
The first thing I went to was the shopping mall, which is now becoming more and more prosperous, and with more and more merchants moving in, he also expands the scale of the mall from time to time, as if it has become an independent market.
After entering the two worlds, the shouting is continuous, and all kinds of fragrances linger.
"Boss, let's have a bowl of herbal tea." Liu Feiyun said to a boss.
"Okay, it's the county magistrate, I'm here for you." The owner of the herbal tea shop poured him a bowl and respectfully served it to him: "My lord hasn't been here for a long time." ”
"It's been hot, and it's been busy lately." Liu Feiyun said, how could he tell what he was in a daze in the palace, which damaged his glorious image.
"My lord's daily life, this is all for our people, this bowl of old man please drink, my lord has worked hard." The owner was very welcoming.
Liu Feiyun did not refuse, and the right was to give himself an endorsement fee, because of his arrival, many people also sat down to drink tea with him at this time, and greeted him with a few words, and he responded with a pleasant face.
"Then I'll go first, the boss has a prosperous business." He didn't stay long after drinking, there was still a lot of stuff waiting for him.
"Slow down, adults." The boss waved his hand and continued his business, but everyone would boast when he saw it: "My lord just had tea at my little stall, and my lord is really approachable." ”
"Yes, our county magistrate is the real parent official."
"Come on, let's sit down and taste what this tea tastes like for all adults."
This is the star benefit, driving consumption.
Liu Feiyun then had a big appetite, and the fragrance hooked up the gluttonous insects, stinky tofu, fried dough sticks, rice cakes...... I can't walk even if I eat.
After eating, walk a hundred steps and live to ninety-nine, and the hundred steps here are slow walks. After walking around, Liu Feiyun was carrying a small box of pastries in his hand, could he come out and bring it back to his wife to taste it at night.
"Your Excellency." Liu Yi, who was standing beside Liu Feiyun, suddenly approached him and whispered, "Someone is following us behind." ”
"Can you tell who it is?" The two of them did not show any abnormality, and kept their smiles unchanged, Liu Feiyun communicated as normal: "How many people are there, can you go to a remote place to kill them?" ”
"There are five people found, but my subordinates feel that there should be a lot of dark places, and I alone need to protect your safety."
As a professional, this hunch can sometimes be very accurate, and Liu Yi feels that these people are not ordinary, so it is more important to protect his own valley master.
"Then pretend that you didn't find anything, and go back to the mansion first."
There was nothing wrong all the way, and these people didn't dare to do it directly on the street. After returning to the mansion and locked up in the room, Liu Feiyun thought for a while and said, "Liu Yi, don't take the initiative to find them, they followed us today, and they should be next time." It is easy to take the initiative to be exposed, and when they come out again, then arrange someone to see if they can catch them all. ”
"My subordinates understand, wait for me to let Liu Er and them come over secretly, maybe they will choose to do it when you go back."
"Hmm."
He would not be the slightest slack about his own life, but he was more worried that they would suddenly do something to his family, and he reminded: "Let them strengthen the guard of the house, and they must not let Xiaoxue have any accidents." ”
"Don't worry, even if we risk our lives, we will never let the master mother hurt in the slightest."
Liu Yi immediately went down to make arrangements, because they didn't know which camp this group of people belonged to, what they were tracking Liu Feiyun for, and they didn't know when they would suddenly make a move, so the sooner they prepared, the better.
"Is it from the Han family, or is it the original Dark Wolf Pavilion?" I just want to live a peaceful life, but there are always people who can't get along with me.
"I hope you don't force me, otherwise you will do ......whatever it takes" If it is possible, Liu Feiyun does not want to live a hiding life with Lin Yuxue, but he has no choice but to kill people and escape, and he is not without a way out.
When I went back in the evening, I didn't meet those people on the road again, was it a coincidence that they weren't following me? But he believes that Liu Yi, no matter what, it's always right to be careful.
"Is it really a coincidence?" In the next few days, he was also a master of the arts, and he used his example as bait, but the person who followed him seemed to disappear and never appeared again.
After a few times, he didn't take the initiative to seduce again, otherwise it would be obvious to people, and it was better to pretend that he didn't find them.
Autumn is rainy and rainy, and there are more than half fewer pedestrians on the road. If the weather is fine, you usually don't go out.
That group of people really disappeared, Liu Feiyun thought to himself, they might have discovered that their whereabouts had leaked and retreated decisively.
However, instead of lowering his vigilance, he turned to the valley for help to see if there were any clues, and sent more security guards.
Things are always piling up, and the weather is just in time, and the rain keeps the grain from the tax not being carried away. And then they couldn't help but settle this tax collector, and they simply gave him nothing to do.
He was unwilling to deal with these strangers, so he handed them over to Ji Fu directly, and he declared that he wanted to visit the township to understand the suffering of the people.
But in fact, I directly found a restaurant and asked for a box to enjoy the wind and rain.
"Let's go." A few days, finally two days of sunny days, those tax collectors left non-stop, after all, the tax issue is urgent, and the above will not let you procrastinate.
Ji Fu is now in the same mood as the county government secretary, he is quite speechless: "My lord, I'm gone, but my lord, is this really okay?" ”
"Why not, it didn't hurt the heavens and reason, and it didn't hinder them, can it still be punished, besides, didn't I say that I would investigate the people's feelings, winter is coming soon, ask the people in advance about the shortcomings, I am a good official." Liu Feiyun grasped the scale.
"Believe you have ghosts." Ji Fu said, if you don't get along so well, you know your character, I really believe it. So he said against his will: "The adults are sympathetic to the suffering of the people, and it is good." ”
"Well, it's almost time, it's okay today, let's go back and rest early."
"Then adults should be more careful on the road, and the students will leave first."
