"The flood in Luozhou needs to be rescued quickly, you Aiqing, I don't know if you have any good plan to solve this matter as soon as possible?"

The place where the Yellow River burst has been completely blocked and reinforced, and if there is no external cause, there will be no disaster in a short time, but the follow-up rescue work will still take a lot of time and effort. In this flood, Luozhou was flooded for 800 miles, killing and injuring more than 5,000 people, and as many as 300,000 people were affected. Luozhou has been prosperous since ancient times, and it is densely populated that it is the only way to have such a big loss.

As soon as he returned to Jinyang, he was happy to take a break, so he convened his ministers to discuss disaster relief. Now that we know that this disaster is man-made, we must be fully prepared.

"Your Majesty, according to the practice of previous years, the imperial court should allocate relief grain, build a porridge factory at the same time, provide food, and mobilize people to build houses for the affected people."

"Distribute relief food?" Xing Xing frowned, looked at Tang Yong and said, "Tang Aiqing, what do you mean?" ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen also thought that this move was very pertinent. Now that the people of Luozhou have been suddenly flooded, many people have been displaced, and there must be a shortage of food, and sending food to the people can solve their urgent needs! ”

Shaking his head happily, he said in a deep voice: "Transferring grain from other places to Luozhou and distributing it to the people, I am afraid that the process will require a lot of manpower and material resources, and it is not easy to manage. ”

"Your Majesty, this must not be done."

When even someone spoke out to stop him: "Your Majesty, now that Luozhou is suffering, there is a shortage of food in the city, and the merchants must hoard grain on a large scale and raise the price on the ground, if Your Majesty hands over the money and silver to the people, I am afraid that it will soon be squeezed away by those traders, and this matter will only get worse and worse, and the people will suffer more!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty! The merchants are treacherous and will definitely take this opportunity to raise prices, and the court will suffer heavy losses for this! ”

"Your Majesty, if you want to allocate money and silver, the court must stabilize prices, so I am afraid that the merchants will no longer transport grain, and the people will have no food to eat, and it is in vain to have money and silver, isn't this even more troublesome?"

Many people in the court spoke out against it, and there were many discussions among themselves. Even Tang Yong had a worried face, although he did not explicitly oppose it, but his meaning could not be clearer.

"It is understandable that businesses pursue profits!" Happy looked calm, and said unhurriedly: "It is true that they will sit on the ground and raise the price and make a lot of money, but if there is no shortage of food in the people's homes, what is the use of the food they hoard?"

Compared with food, money and silver are more convenient to transport, and the affected people are not necessarily just short of food, let them decide for themselves, not only can reduce the burden on the imperial court, but also better help them, why not? ”

"Your Majesty—"

Everyone in the hall frowned, some people showed a sudden expression, but more of them were doubts and worries, and even more anxious people wanted to speak out against it again, but they were stopped by Xing Xing: "Okay, I have decided on this matter!" Tang Aiqing. ”

"The minister is here!"

Tang Yong's expression was serious and he replied respectfully.

happily said lightly: "This matter is personally responsible for you, saving the people is the most important, and the expenses in the palace can be reduced as much as possible!" ”

"Yes!"

The reason why Xing Xing is so tough is, firstly, to help the suffering people as much as possible, and secondly, to slowly infiltrate the concept of market economy into this society. He can act arbitrarily in the restructuring of the armed forces, but he needs a moderate approach to economic reform, otherwise it will only be counterproductive and the gains will outweigh the losses.

……

When he returned to the imperial study, Xiao Ling had been waiting for a long time. Since the Yellow River burst its banks, his complexion has always been extremely gloomy, like a thousand strands of ice, and the heavy evil aura on his body can hardly be contained, making the palace guards and palace maids tremble and dare not approach.

Knowing Xiao Ling's intention, his happy face sank slightly, nodded, and went to the imperial study first. When Xiao Ling came in and closed the door, he said happily: "There is a result?" ”

"Yes."

"Which one?"

"The Ding family."

"Heavenly Evil Sect, or Heavenly Dao Sect, or Holy Fire Sect?"

"It's the Heavenly Evil Sect."

"Ding family, alas-"

With a low sigh, he happily turned to look at Xiao Ling and said, "Where are the people?" Take me to see it! ”

Xiao Ling nodded, dressed in black, with his temperament at this time, the whole person was more like a ghost, drifting out.

As soon as his happy body was shaken, the dragon robe on his body left his body and hung on the luxurious dragon chair in the room, and at the same time, he took out a blue robe from the dark compartment next to the bookcase and put it on his body, and flew out behind Xiao Ling like a gust of wind.

With the happy accession to the throne, Xiao Ling, who was cold and unkind, was also known to everyone, although his official position was not high, but few people in the entire Great Qi Empire dared to provoke him, and everyone in the palace who saw him avoided him.

Soon, Gao Xing and Xiao Ling left the palace and came to the former Ande Palace, the later Regent Palace, and now the Prince's East Palace.

Without alarming the guards, Happy and Xiao Ling came to a well-guarded courtyard in the mansion that was remote and quiet. This is where the base of the Shadow Thorn in Jinyang is located, and it is also a secret prison for Happy, and in addition to the core members of the Shadow Thorn who know that there exist here, there are only Gao Changgong and Happy father and son.

In a corner of the courtyard, Xiao Ling showed his token to the two guards hiding in the shadows, and the cement floor under his feet suddenly began to shake slightly, and in the sound of "Titicaca", the ground cracked, and a huge five-meter-square hole appeared in front of Happy and Xiao Ling, and a stone step extended diagonally down to the distance, and the light of the jumping fire could be faintly seen.

As soon as he stepped into the cave, he could feel a cold wind blowing in his face, a strong smell of blood came from his nose, and there was a faint mournful wail in his ears, but his expression remained the same, for him killing and death were like daily changes, and they could not cause any fluctuations in his mood.

Turning around the somewhat dark and damp steps, Gao Xing and Xiao Ling finally stopped in front of a stone room.

In the sound of "rumbling", the stone room opened, and at a glance, I saw a man in blue tied to the stone wall, although his hair was scattered and his face was a little pale, but his appearance was very handsome, and this person was not very old.

Seeing this person's appearance clearly, his happy footsteps stagnated imperceptibly and then stepped in, quietly looking at the prisoner who was a little sluggish, and did not speak, until the young man who heard the movement slowly raised his head and said happily: "Ding Hao, I don't know if you still recognize me?" ”

The blue-clothed young man's eyes were a little sluggish, but when he heard the happy words, his eyes suddenly froze, a touch of shock flashed on his face, and his expression suddenly became a little excited, and his body trembled violently, so that the chains on his hands and feet "rattled".

"Gao Xin? Glad! ”

The hoarse voice, the blood-red eyes, the heavy snort and the irrepressible killing intent on the body.

"I treat your Ding family well, and now your Ding family is also one of the best in Shandong, and the reputation of assets is several times stronger than before, why do you want to betray me?" Xing Xing looked at Ding Hao coldly, but there was suppressed anger in his indifferent voice.

"Why? You still have to ask me why? If you hadn't been cruel and tyrannical, how could my fiancée's family have died? How could my Ding family be humiliated? Ding Hao was furious, his face was hideous and distorted, and he roared loudly: "Happy, my Ding family seems to have infinite scenery, but it has always lived in your shadow, I don't accept it!" I want revenge, I want to let your lowly villain be broken into pieces, I want to leave you, a rebellious minister and thief, with nothing! ”

Happy and silent, when he was in Shandong, in order to open up the situation as soon as possible, his methods were indeed very intense, and countless people died in his hands, and he no longer cared if what Ding Hao said was true. However, Happy has never regretted it, those rich people have blood on their hands, Happy will not have the slightest guilt in killing them, even if it is not, it is not a pity to kill the person who stands in his way.

Looking at Ding Hao coldly, he asked happily and lightly, "Who else is involved in this matter?" Where are the people of the Heavenly Evil Sect? ”

Ding Hao looked at him mockingly and said: "Happy, as long as I confess, I will inevitably die, you don't want me to tell you a word!" ”

"Xiao Ling, the matter of the Ding family will be handed over to you, don't tolerate those involved in this matter, but don't involve the innocent." Happy immediately turned around, never looked at Ding Hao again, and said lightly as he walked forward: "Since the Heavenly Evil Sect is so rampant, I can't say that I have to settle accounts with them!" When the last sentence of happiness came out, a chill flashed in his eyes.

The last word fell, and he walked out of the stone room happily, and a low cry of pain came from behind him, which belonged to Ding Hao. I still remember that the young man bowed his head and succumbed to the family, and was happy and praised his decisiveness and wisdom, but now he ended up like this, and the facts in the world are unpredictable.

Happy will not let go of Ding Hao, his mistake is unforgivable, not because of his betrayal, but because of the thousands of lives that were buried in the flood, as well as the heavy losses suffered by Daqi.

For the Heavenly Evil Sect, the killing intent in his heart was even stronger than ever. Their approach had touched the bottom line of happiness, and he almost got out of anger. If they were on the battlefield, no matter what kind of conspiracy and calculations they faced, they would not be so resentful, but they should not bring disasters to ordinary people, this kind of behavior is unforgivable, if the Heavenly Evil Sect still exists, Happy will be ashamed of the innocent dead souls.

A few months ago, Gao Chang Gongcai joined forces with the Moon Worship Sect and the Hundred Flowers Palace to kill the Heavenly Evil Sect and the Heavenly Dao Sect in Northern Qi Province, but the Heavenly Evil Sect was still able to create this incident of the Yellow River bursting, which shows the depth of the sect's heritage and the huge power of this sect that has been inherited for hundreds of years.

……

"Zero One, how are you doing with your marksmanship?"

"Kill!" The simple three words are enough to see the strong self-confidence of this angry Dragon Soul Captain. His aura was similar to Xiao Ling's, but there were some other things in his eyes than the former, which was the eyes of a dead man who looked at death as if he were at home, and never died.

"Very good, leave half of the people, and you will lead the rest of the team, infiltrate the Zhou Kingdom, and assassinate the masters of the Heavenly Evil Sect above the sixth grade."

"Yes, Childe."

"Don't fight hard, just do your best!" After a pause, he said happily: "Also, you all have to come back alive." ”
