Su Yi, Cheng Lin and others did not take the official road and took the small road instead, which effectively avoided the main force of the armor army, but the trip was delayed a lot. In particular, there were many bandits in ambush on the path, but fortunately, Su Yi's subordinates were well-equipped, and their level of toughness was far above those bandits, and they went to Dongyang without danger all the way.

The main force of the armor army is all in Nanyang County, in order to prevent secret agents from crossing the border, the Wudou Mijiao has set up a checkpoint, and many soldiers have been sent to patrol along the way.

I had to admire Tian Million's lobbying ability, and under his persuasion, the squires and powerful forces from all over the country took refuge in the Wudou Rice Sect, especially in those counties to the west of Youzhou, and some officers and soldiers secretly contacted Tian Million's subordinates.

The Wudou Mijiao is entrenched in the hinterland of Youzhou, occupying Nanyang, separating Youzhou from end to end, and the counties in the west and Liu Yu have also cut off contact, and the officials of these counties are worried all day long, up to the gentry, down to the peddlers and pawns, all of them are frightened, for fear that one day the armor army will come to the city.

Nanyang, these five bucket rice sect to capture the lower counties, the people's life has been on the right track, all walks of life to work again, all over the shops are also under the instruction of Tian million, slowly opened, but the city occupied by the imperial court, because the territory is too big, and is separated by the five bucket rice sect, the local officials of these counties are not aligned, each other is constantly fighting, the public security is getting worse and worse, the people are panicked, and there are more bandits and grass bandits.

The situation in the North is better in the Central Plains, the North is cold and frozen, although it has entered spring, but the climate is still a little cold, unlike the Central Plains, the weather is warmer, and there is a large scale of plague in various places, although there have been some epidemic patients in Youzhou, these people were quickly cleaned up by the government.

Although Liu Yu could not govern the locality, he still did a good job in preventing and controlling the plague, but all the displaced people who fled from the Central Plains, regardless of whether they carried the plague or not, were killed.

The Central Plains was the first place where the plague broke out, and the Central Plains was a vast land with a large population, and it was also the place where the Red Clothes Rebellion was most serious. Plague soon spread as the fighting continued, with countless casualties among displaced people and soldiers, and the corpses piled up on the side of the road and left no one to pay attention, and soon the plague grew.

Gangnam is better. There are many families in Jiangnan, and it is the land of fish and rice, and the plague in the Central Plains has not yet reached Jiangnan, and the wealthy families in Jiangnan have joined forces to do a good job in various plague prevention and control measures.

The war disaster met the famine, and the local grain prices in Youzhou also rose against the market. As Su Yi expected, at this time, food is more precious than silver, basically one price a day, all those who have food at home are hoarded, and those who have no food are also trying to buy food everywhere, no one knows what the price of food will be tomorrow.

Su Yi and Cheng Lin came all the way, and the rugged path was full of corpses that had not yet decomposed, and the wilderness was covered with white bones. Some homeless people squatted next to those white bones and saw Su Yi and his party passing by. His eyes suddenly glowed green.

Cheng Lin saw that their complexions were abnormal, and she had palpitations for no reason.

"Don't look at them, let's go!" Su Yi turned his head in disgust, pulled Cheng Lin away, and said in a low voice: "The price of rice in Youzhou is high, these homeless people have no fixed place, and the clothes on their bodies are tattered, but they all eat with oily faces, there must be something unusual in this." ”

Cheng Lin was shocked: "I see them squatting next to some corpses, maybe they rely on eating ......"

Su Yi glanced at those homeless people with a pale face. Hurriedly ordered his subordinates: "Be careful of those outcasts, if they want to get close to us, kill me!" ”

Li Goudan has been a rogue in the Zongheng Mountains for a period of time, and has seen the bloodthirstiness and ferocity of many rogues. But there had never been a rogue, and he looked as terrifying as he did to look at these outcasts.

They looked at Su Yi and the others with a dull expression, their eyes glowing with a strange green light, and they kept **** their greasy lips, Li Goudan was shocked when he saw this: "Oh, my good girl!" These outcasts are not like people, but like jackals accustomed to eating human flesh! ”

Su Yi also sighed and said, "In troubled times, life is not as good as a dog!" ”

Li Goudan pursed his lips and said, "Who said it wasn't?" I don't know what this lord in the court thinks. This flower and country don't want to govern well, everyone who is greedy for money is a good hand, and so is this emperor, who are the people appointed, but then again, if there were no corrupt officials and corrupt officials, my dog would not have been left to be a rogue in the vertical and horizontal cottage, and I would not have had the opportunity to serve under the lord. ”

Cheng Lin said angrily: "This emperor is not a good person, he favors eunuchs, his relatives are in power, and there are many factions in this court, and the princes fight to the death, and he even killed the prince who was established at the beginning!" I heard my father say that since the rebellion of the Wudou Rice Sect, the emperor has not been in the early court, and he and a group of concubines have been hiding in the imperial orchard all day long. ”

Su Yi's heart moved, what man hasn't fantasized about having three palaces and six courtyards? No wonder so many people want to be emperors, just because the beauties from all over the country let him choose this one, how many men flock to it.

Hearing that the emperor chooses concubines every year, those beautiful Jiangnan women, beautiful Central Plains women, and northern girls with graceful figures and long hips and legs are all lined up waiting for the palace people to choose, thinking of this, Su Yi showed a yearning look.

Su Yi pressed one hand on the hilt of the knife, and with the other hand he kept rubbing his chin, and said thoughtfully: "Seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards, can the emperor take care of it alone?" But even if you can't enjoy them all, you can just watch them around. ”

Li Goudan, who was following Su Yi, nodded hurriedly, and said with deep sympathy: "What the lord said is true!" ”

Su Yi and Li Goudan glanced at each other, feeling like they had found a confidant.

Cheng Lin followed Su Yi, looked at him with an unkind face, and said sourly: "Are you yearning?" ”

Su Yi grinned and said, "Who in the world doesn't yearn for men?" ”

"Phew!" Cheng Lin said angrily: "People are the appearance of emperors, and you look like a monkey, your status is far from good, you don't expect to hug left and right in this life, if you can marry a girl, hurry up and go to your Su family's ancestral grave to burn high incense!" ”

Su Yi pointed to the south and said, "What about the emperor's appearance?" Now it's not the same chaos in the world! I see how long he can sit on this throne. ”

Su Yi's words sounded like a big rebellion to outsiders, but at this time, the influence of the central court on the local area was getting weaker and weaker, and bandits and traitors were emerging in an endless stream, Cheng Lin was a big girl, and at this time, she didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but squinted at Su Yi and teased: "Oh? Can he take his place? ”

"Humph!" Su Yi raised his head and said loudly: "The husband should be like this, why not replace it......"

Before he could finish his sentence, a spear suddenly shot out of the jungle in front of him!

"There's an enemy attack!" Li Goudan shouted, "The sword and shield hand stepped forward!" ”

Before he could finish shouting, a large black dot appeared in front of him, followed by a screaming sound that broke through the air.

Gao Heihu roared, and with a stick, the spear that shot at Su Yi was opened, and the sword and shield soldiers hurriedly held the shield forward, protecting Su Yi and the others behind him. (To be continued.) )
