In the harem, there are only two concubines, one is Lu Xiaoxiao, and the other is silly Bai Tian. But apart from the parties, who can know that the so-called concubine is just a false name.

This is just as Lu Xiaoxiao expected, but she didn't expect that in front of Zhao Gou today, she accidentally exposed her emotions.

Obviously, she just shouted, and Zhao Gou's cold words stripped her of her disguise at all, but, this emperor, what is he thinking?

Because of Chu Yun's secret letter, Zhao Gou was very energetic in the morning of the next day, and the dark clouds that had shrouded him for several days finally dissipated a lot, giving Zhao Gou a feeling of seeing the sun through the clouds.

"Bandits in the southwest, how to deal with it, do you Aiqing have a good plan?"

Zhao Gou asked this question, and there was silence in the court, and Zhao Gou was no longer angry, he was angry, he was used to it.

These people are a group of people who can only play tricks, and when the real big thing comes, no one can take the lead, they only know how to shirk each other's responsibilities.

It has been nearly two months since the outbreak of bandits in the southwest, and now the court is still passing the buck to each other.

So far there has been no result.

Because when the incident broke out, Zhao Gou once said angrily: "Good people, why did they rebel, why did they become bandits!" ”

This question, Zhao Gou first threw it to the head of the household.

Because Zhao Gou remembered the conversation he had with Chu Yun. The tolerance of ordinary people is particularly strong, as long as they have a bite to eat, they can live with peace of mind and stability.

In this way, Chu Yun defined a stable crowd, and now they are rebelling!

Zhao Gou didn't feel that what Chu Yun said was wrong at all, so it was a mistake in a certain link.

Since there is food to eat, it is stable, it must be no food to eat!

Therefore, this question should be asked to the head of the household, the household department is in charge of the country's money and grain, earlier, there was a drought in the southwest region, Zhao Gou ordered the opening of the treasury, disaster relief.

Hubu Shangshu said that he was very wronged, his money and food were all transferred, and it must be that the officials below did not put it in place, so this pot belonged to the ministry.

The officials also shouted injustice, although they are in charge of the transfer of the assessment officials, but the assessment is quarterly, maybe those pit officials were still good when they were assessed, and then suddenly became bad, so, it is not the fault of the officials, but the fault of the imperial history who did not find the problem in time.

When it comes to Yushi, this pot can't be shaken, and if it is determined that it is because the officials did not do a good job that led to the rebellion in the southwest, then it will definitely be thrown to Yushi's side in the end.

Doctor Yu Shi had an idea, and skillfully changed the topic, saying: "The bandit problem in the southwest is constantly expanding, and we can't know the root cause for the time being, and the minister will have to wait until the rebellion is quelled to investigate the truth, so the military department should give an effective plan to stop the rebels." ”

The bigwigs of the Ministry of War were suddenly stunned, originally the three departments of the Criminal Department, the Ministry of Engineering and the Ministry of War were standing there playing soy sauce and watching the show, but they couldn't be involved, but as a result, a cauldron suddenly fell from the sky, and they couldn't hide.

So the military department Shangshu had to cry miserably, now the main forces of this Great Xia are fighting against the Yan army, how can they draw troops to fight against the huge bandits?

So the topic ended here, and then the rebellion in the southwest lasted for two months, and the Korea, China, and Japan quarreled endlessly, and Zhao Gou was angry, and all the three major books of the household department, the official department, and the military department were all taken down, and the imperial doctor also asked him to go home and reflect.

For a while, although the DPRK and China were much quieter, there was still no one who could solve this problem.

Therefore, Chu Yun's secret letter came at the right time, and Zhao Gou felt that Chu Yun's suggestion was very appropriate, from now on, stop the war with Yan Guo and turn to calm the domestic turmoil.

With Chu Yun out of the horse, Zhao Gou was not worried at all that the rebellion could not be quelled.

So, it's time to take this opportunity to let those people go home and rest forever.

In today's court, most of them are Zhao Gou's people, and it is time for the final purge.

After Zhao Gou experienced some daily quarrels, he broke the heavy news given by Chu Yun.

Emperor Yan died of illness and fell into civil strife.

When Zhao Gou said the news, some courtiers immediately shouted that they wanted to take this opportunity to take the Yan Kingdom in one fell swoop and complete the great cause that the previous dynasties had failed to complete.

Zhao Gou listened, and silently complained in his heart, these people are better than him. I know that I will call in the court, and I have the ability to go directly to the battlefield! One by one, the custody was immediately coaxed.

Moreover, Zhao Gou saw that these people really didn't have any foresight.

Compared with the benefits and disadvantages that Chu Yun said in the letter, these people would only talk nonsense without going through their brains, which only made Zhao Gou feel ridiculous.

Fortunately, there are still sober minds in this group, Wu Jingxian stood up, proposed peace, and then secretly supported the weaker side in Yan's civil strife.

This idea is exactly the same as Chu Yun's opinion, Zhao Gou glanced at Wu Jingxian with satisfaction, although he felt that Chu Yun was more powerful, but Wu Jingxian put forward this opinion at this time, which was also very good.

You can't let him, the emperor, take the initiative to ask for peace, which is a great damage to the king's face, but now it's different, because the courtiers made good suggestions, and Zhao Gou is a virtuous monarch who is open to words, so he will do what this courtier says!

After drawing up the holy decree, Zhao Gou issued another order.

Wu Yun'er was given the title of general of Zhenbei, commanding the three passes and three armies, and making every effort to suppress the rebellion in the southwest, and the garrison troops could be called along the way.

Chu Yun was appointed as the chief army, and his power was similar to that of Wu Yun'er, except that Chu Yun was the supervisor.

Generally speaking, Wu Yun'er's merits can be crowned a marquis, but she is a woman, and it is still not good to be a marquis, and Chu Yun did not kill the enemy after all, and it is not convenient to be a marquis, so Zhao Gou had to suppress the last time first, and was ready to wait for them to return to Beijing, and then reward them together.

Before that, he had to think about what he should give.

Pingyang Pass, Chu Yun rarely showed a wry smile when he received the holy decree.

He had expected it earlier, but when the real thing happened to him, Chu Yun only felt helpless.

In the past, he always had a way to solve it, but this time, it was a real headache.

Let's say that when Chu Yun confessed to Wu Yun'er, Xia Ying chose to run away, she ran away, and she was idle and bored, so she naturally wandered around in Pingyang Pass, at this time, Pingyang Pass was no longer the depression it was at the beginning, just in such a little time, earth-shaking changes have occurred.

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and they all have smiles on their faces.

Seeing this, Xia Ying's heart was also full of satisfaction, after all, the construction of this city also has her share of credit, and the person with the greatest credit is also the person she likes, so in Pingyang Pass, Xia Ying has a feeling of being haunted by happiness.

This time, she did not punish the wicked, but she also contributed her own efforts, compared to simple fighting, killing and killing, Xia Ying fully realized that it was not easy for the official. Thinking of the past, whether she killed corrupt officials or punished cool officials, in the end, the lives of the people still did not improve.

As a witch who worries about the world, Xia Ying is also heartbroken.

However, the current Pingyang Pass gives her a very good feeling, Xia Ying blended into the flow of people, because when she came out, she simply made a simple disguise for herself, and mixed in the crowd, her ordinary appearance failed to attract the attention of many people.

Listening to the small talk of passers-by, Xia Ying can also fully feel the breath of life, simple and real.

"Did you hear that? Recently, there has been another battle! ”

Xia Ying suddenly heard a word that made her a little concerned, and then secretly thought, probably when Wu Yun'er and her returned from the night with the army, the movement was still known, so these people had such thoughts.

However, there didn't seem to be much worry in their tone, and it was obvious that they should have more confidence in the defenders.

"I heard that there was a drought in Shucheng, and many people died."

"What about after the drought?"

"It's just a fuss, I heard that it was a kind of teaching, and I took them to rob the official mansion, and now it's terrible."

"Yes, can you grab the things of the old man?"

Xia Ying's heart tightened when she heard this, and she unconsciously followed the two men who were talking, and the two of them turned their heads suddenly, looked at Xia Ying, and suddenly said in surprise: "What are you looking at?" ”

Xia Ying was shocked, she didn't expect that she was easily discovered by two ordinary people, she should have been in turmoil and out of proportion.

Xia Yingdao hurriedly said: "I heard you say just now that something happened in Xishu, and there is a ...... on my side."

Xia Ying just wanted to say that there were relatives over there who wanted to inquire about the situation, but before the lie was compiled, the man said nervously: "I don't know anything, don't ask." ”

Xia Ying: "......"

You were still gossiping just now!

They didn't talk about it at this time, Xia Ying also knew that they were taboo something, the common people were very timid, for fear of getting into trouble, if they wanted to talk about these things, they had to be familiar people to talk about these things.

There is also a little excitement in the taboo, but if you are asked by a stranger, it is naturally secretive.

Xia Ying wanted to ask, but the two men quickened their pace and left, Xia Ying wanted to catch up, it was naturally very simple, but it was not so easy to let them speak.

Xia Ying couldn't do anything to threaten innocent people with force.

Xia Ying let them go, but her mind could no longer be at peace.

The rebellion in the southwest land, this is at most a shock to others, but Xia Ying knows that what kind of so-called religion is very likely to be the Qinglian Sect that she and her friends have established for so many years, and before, her activities in Shu were also choosing a safe place for the Qinglian Sect.

After everything was arranged, she left Shu to assassinate Chu Yun, a 'cool official'.

I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen with this departure......

Xia Ying didn't think that in Shudi, there could be other sects that could do such a thing.

At this time, Xia Ying's heart couldn't help but soften, and she didn't know what to do.

The days of building Pingyang Pass with Chu Yun let her know that the government and the imperial court have done a lot of things, and they have done things that cannot be replaced by non-governmental organizations.

She no longer looks at problems from the perspective of a chivalrous person, but more of a holistic view.

However, she understands better that if it is really as she heard, there is a drought in Shu and robbing the grain of the government or something, this is definitely something that their gang of chivalrous people have done.

The problem is that now it seems that it is no longer just a matter of robbing the government of a little food.

Xia Ying just hearsay, but she didn't know where things had developed, but she heard the rumors in Pingyang Pass, and obviously things would not be small.

So, what should she do?

Xia Ying also knew that Chu Yun had been worried that she would rebel when she knew that her Qinglian Sect was so powerful, so there were often times when her words were admonished, and Xia Ying never answered positively.

Because she never thought of following the laws of Great Xia, but she never thought of rebellion, she never thought that the emperor would take turns, and now it was her turn.

It's just that now that the wood is in the boat, where can she go?

She couldn't have left behind those people, her master, her sisters, and like-minded people with her.

Therefore, she will definitely stand on the opposite side of Chu Yun.

What about Chu Yun?

Chu Yun's wife is the cousin of the current emperor, Chu Yun and the emperor also have a good relationship, will they be with a gang of bandits for her?

Impossible!

Xia Ying quickly came up with this answer.

Not to mention that Chu Yun would not make such a choice, even if he really chose like this, Xia Ying would not let him do it.

In fact, Xia Ying also had a little luck in his heart, what if, the situation was not as bad as he thought? What if it's just a gang of righteous people passing by?

But soon, Xia Ying personally snuffed out her luck, and now that she already knew the news over there, she couldn't pretend to be indifferent anymore.

Otherwise, what's the difference between pretending to be stupid and giving up on them and betraying them.

However, it was clear that Chu Yun had already accepted her, and Wu Yun'er had also accepted her......

Xia Ying's heart was extremely unwilling, but she still made a decision.

At nightfall that day, Chu Yun and Wu Yun'er waited in the mansion for a long time, and Xia Ying did not come back, when she went to her room to look for her, she found that many things were missing, and the qin that Xia Ying was carrying was naturally not there, but the clothes that Chu Yun bought for her were also missing, and Chu Yun of course understood.

Chu Yun got the news a few days ago, the problem he had been worried about for a long time finally became a reality, as early as when he knew that Xia Ying was the boss of the Jianghu forces, he knew that there would be such a day.

After all, I studied liberal arts, and this kind of thing has happened more than once in history.

All civil rebellions were covered up by the power of religion at the beginning, such as the Taiping Dao, such as Mingjiao, and God worship.

Once this kind of non-governmental organization becomes large-scale, it will be easy to do things, and this drought in the southwest is the right time......

Chu Yun couldn't be sure, was all this a premeditated rebellion, or was it really a coincidence, and he was forced to helplessly lead to the expansion of the situation?
