When Mo Shuyan returned to Chang'an City, the ice and snow had gradually melted, everything recovered, and verdant buds began to emerge quietly, and the early spring season had come.

But in Chang'an City, there is no such energetic enthusiasm, as if they are immersed in worry and unable to extricate themselves.

"The war on the front line is tight again, and the second forced conquest has begun again, taking advantage of the fact that Chang'an has not seen this action, store some food earlier, and if you can not leave the house, you will not leave the house."

"In the neighboring counties, every household has begun to be arrested, and I think Chang'an is coming soon, everyone should be careful."

……

In the early spring, there should have been a lot of people who were supposed to go out of the city, but now only the people walked through the city gates, looking at their costumes, most of them were peasants, and they had to go out of the city to cultivate the land.

The so-called forced expropriation, not only to levy grain but also to recruit people, and it is not voluntary, which is very damaging to the people's morale, but in this era, what other way is there to do?

Try not to let yourself think, Mo Shuyan and Ji Jun led the horse into the city, thinking that the city would also be deserted, but unexpectedly, along the way, the tea shops, wine shops and other places they saw were still so lively, most of the people in it were not poor people, with a little thought, Mo Shuyan knew that this group of people had some background at home, and they could spend a lot of money to exempt them, so they didn't need to be afraid.

"The poor and the rich, in this era, have experienced a completely different world, and I really don't know if it is the sorrow of the upper class or the misfortune of the lower class." Mo Shuyan sighed lightly and walked forward, the noise in his ears seemed to have nothing to do with him.

As soon as he returned to Chang'an, Mo Shuyan's first thought was to return to the mansion and meet Qiao Wan, he hadn't seen him for so long, and he missed it very much.

However, as soon as he arrived at the mansion, Mo Shuyan found that the guards in the mansion were more than twice as many as when he left, and after thinking about it, Mo Shuyan saw the reason, in addition to guarding Qiao Wan's safety, it was more to prevent Qiao Wan from escaping.

I want to take Qiao Wan out of this iron bucket-like Chang'an City, as well as countless hidden intelligence networks, and leave with Qiao Wan desperately, but there is only one result, I will definitely die, it seems that if I want to send Qiao Wan out of Chang'an, I can only send her out through other ways, Mo Shuyan can't help but think.

The guards at the gate of the mansion found Mo Shuyan, and immediately trotted over with great joy, bowed down and said, "Mr. Mo is finally back, the lord has been waiting for a long time, and I ordered you to enter the palace immediately to meet you when I see you." ”

"I really don't have any time left."

Mo Shuyan had a smile on his face, but there was a little coldness in his eyes, from beginning to end, Xu Zisheng just wanted to use his value, not to say anything about real cooperation, and when his value was dispensable, it would be his death.

"Sir, let's go inside and see Miss Qiaowan, so as to relieve the pain of lovesickness." Ji Jun persuaded.

"That's it, I've all gone back to Chang'an, and I'm not in a hurry for a while, you can also go home and see your parents at home, I'll go to the palace alone." Mo Shuyan waved his hand and said disappreciatively.

Hearing this, Ji Jun's eyes appeared a little bright, after this period of time, the longing for his parents is not deep, but Ji Jun still insisted and said: "Let me accompany my husband." ”

"You have a lot of things to do, so don't follow me."

Mo Shuyan had a look of guilt on his face, and said softly: "Go and see for me, the parents of the deceased brothers, I'm afraid that if I go, they will be angry when they are emotional." ”

"Okay."

Hearing this, Ji Jun no longer insisted, it was indeed much better for him to visit the parents of those deceased brothers at this time, and besides, in Chang'an City, Mo Shuyan would not have anything to do, and he didn't need to protect him very much.

Mo Shuyan, who looked a little lonely, said no more, turned on his horse, and galloped away in the direction of Miyagi.

And Ji Jun left in the other direction, he planned to go to see his parents first, and then talk about other things.

Chang'an Miyagi.

Mo Shuyan rode his horse all the way through the palace, but no one dared to stop him, and when he saw Mo Shuyan coming, he took the initiative to retreat to the side and let Mo Shuyan gallop past.

Almost setting the fastest time from the palace gate to the palace, Mo Shuyan arrived outside the palace, turned over and dismounted, handed over the reins in his hand to the guards with shocked faces, and strode into the palace.

At this time, in the hall, Xu Zisheng was in a high position, and the next head was the military general of Wenchen, who was discussing the war, Mo Shuyan suddenly walked in, directly interrupting the conversation here, and everyone turned their eyes over, with different eyes, or happy, shocked, or annoyed, or disdainful.....

But these Mo Shuyan turned a blind eye, anyway, they didn't dare to say anything, and before walking to the palace, Mo Shuyan stood up straight, and said softly: "I'm here." ”

"Wenhe and Zhongkang stay, and the rest will step back for the time being." Xu Zisheng said with a wave of his hand.

Hearing this, except for Jia Xu and Xu Chu, who were still sitting in their original positions, the rest of the civil and military generals all got up and saluted Xu Zisheng and retreated together.

When they were finished, a smile appeared on Xu Zisheng's face, and he said softly: "You are comfortable these days, you don't have to worry about anything." ”

"You can live that kind of life whenever you want, so why envy it."

Mo Shuyan was not in the mood to talk to Xu Zisheng about these useless things, and said directly: "The brothers who died in Mianchi County, I hope that you can order them to give preferential treatment and a certain amount of care, can you?" ”

"Wenhe, can you have a compassionate statement for the soldiers who died on the front line?" Xu Zisheng did not choose to answer Mo Shuyan's question, but asked Jia Xu.

"At most, there will be no priority for compulsory conscription, and there is no precedent for preferential benefits." Jia Xu replied.

So, Xu Zisheng said helplessly: "It's not that I don't want to, there is really no precedent to find, if you start from here, the expenses will increase several times." ”

"No room for manoeuvre?" Mo Shuyan asked with a deep gaze.

"At most, there will be no priority for forced conscription, and as for a certain amount of compensation, it can secretly support you, but it will be carried out in your private name." Xu Zisheng said.

"So be it."

There is no way to change it, Mo Shuyan has no choice but to accept it, and he will fight for whatever he can for the sacrificed brothers, which can be regarded as making up for the debt in his heart a little.

"Wenhe, I'll take care of this matter to you." Xu Zisheng commanded.

"No."

Now that this matter is over, what we will talk about next is to get down to business, Mo Shuyan's request is just an appetizer, not worth mentioning.
