Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and said, "I'm afraid that Zijin is willing to accompany him to mess around like this." ”

"That's not all, do you know what Zijin's girl said to Erlang?"

Emperor Xuanwu deliberately sold a pass, wanting Xiao Ye to say a few more words, otherwise the whole person leaned on the bed silently, looking gloomy.

Xiao Ye was also extremely cooperative, "Zijin, this kid has always been straightforward, and he must be angry." ”

"Exactly, Zijin was so angry that he smashed an ebony table on the spot." Emperor Xuanwu stroked his palms and smiled, "I heard that Erlang was scared enough at that time. ”

"This kid ......"

Xiao Ye also smiled, helpless and at the same time felt expected.

These two children grew up together, not to mention smashing a case, I'm afraid it's not unusual for the two to fight together, right?

After laughing, Emperor Xuanwu got down to business, "We just laughed and laughed at these things, but the jokes of the juniors, what surprised me was what Zijin said,

Zijin said that she had been worried that Erlang's temperament was too soft, and now Erlang will protect food, which is very good. ”

Xiao Ye's smile gradually faded, and it was replaced by emotion, "Zijin is really ......"

Emperor Xuanwu also had the same expression, "Don't talk about you, even I didn't expect this kid to be able to say this, you and I understand what happened back then, it is normal for Zijin to be unwilling, who would have thought that she would be able to plan for Erlang to this point!" ”

"Zijin gave birth to a seven-trick exquisite heart, but it's a pity that ......"

What a pity?

The prince didn't say it, and Emperor Xuanwu didn't ask.

The two diverted the topic with great tacit understanding.

"What do you think of the situation between the DPRK and China now?"

"People's hearts float." Xiao Ye only said four words, but he successfully made Emperor Xuanwu's face cold.

"I think they're all idle!"

"I can't blame them either," Xiao Ye said calmly as if he hadn't seen Emperor Xuanwu's face, "In the end, it's because Erlang is too young." ”

"What Erlang is young!" Emperor Xuanwu was not angry, "I think there are too many people in the court who rely on the old and sell the old!" ”

……

"Nowadays, most of the people in the DPRK and China are honorable and valuable, relying on the old and selling the old, and holding authority." Zijin changed his comfortable posture and continued, "If Your Majesty wants to push the emperor's eldest grandson to the front of the stage, he must eradicate some people, but I don't know that those people are going to be unlucky." ”

"Yes, our majesty, but I like to attack the nobles the most."

Zhao Qing took a sip of tea and looked a little depressed.

However, Zijin knows his temper too well, this person has been pretending to be a gentleman for a long time, and often subconsciously makes some unruly behaviors, so he uses this literary and artistic young man to cover up.

To put it bluntly, it means that after pretending to be a pig for a long time, he was assimilated by a pig, and he had no choice but to pretend to be a human again.

"Don't worry, it's not your turn yet." Zijin comforted casually, then turned his head to look at the soldiers walking around outside the window, his brows furrowed slightly.

"I heard that a few days ago, a few refugees tried to break into the city, but they were hacked to death by the people of the five armies?"

"That's right," Zhao Qing also frowned, and said, "The imperial court has arranged food and accommodation for them outside the city, what are they dissatisfied with, they just want to enter the city, and they are all young and strong!" These people are too ignorant! ”

"That's what you think?" Zijin looked at Zhao Qing with novelty, as if he was the first time he knew him.

"Aren't you?" Zhao Qing looked at Zijin strangely, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”

"yes, there's nothing wrong with that." Zijin smiled and withdrew his gaze and continued to look out the window.

There really is nothing wrong with that, this is the normal thinking of the powerful! When it is not their own business, they stand in the position of the people, and once they threaten their own interests, the people become an eyesore.

But who would have thought that only young people wanted to enter the city because the women and children were about to die?

From this point of view, Your Majesty doesn't love the people like a son!

She didn't believe that such a big movement outside the city could hide it from His Majesty above!

Now I pretend not to know, but because some things are worth more than those refugees.

It's a pity that her 200 stone of food was not delivered to the refugees' stomachs.

"Speaking of which, the New Year is approaching, is there nothing wrong with your house? Still thinking about asking me to come for tea? "Obviously, there should be more things in the palace.

"No way, who made my subordinates too capable." Zijin pretended to sigh.

As for the fact that she was actually driven out of disgust by her family because she was too in the way, let's let it go with the wind.

……

"Qingshu, take out the set of tea sets that Your Majesty gave you yesterday that has passed the rain and the sky is clear," Zijin leaned on a few and waved his hand without any image, "Since Your Majesty has given it, it will be used, if you don't use it, it will be in vain Your Majesty's mind." ”

"Yes." Qingshu was not surprised by Zijin's appearance, put away the old tea set on the desk and walked out.

"Nightheart, is there any news outside the city lately?" Zijin changed his posture and leaned on the newly given rosewood table by Emperor Xuanwu, feeling that the palace must be a high-quality product.

Yexin tried to ignore the rude behavior of the master in front of him, and said, "I heard that many people in the refugee camp outside the city are starting to have a fever, and according to my subordinates, it may be a plague ......"

"No nonsense! Can these words be said nonsense? That's just ordinary wind chill! ”

Zijin interrupted Ye Xin's words, but there were turbulent waves in his heart.

Pestilence!

It's a plague!

Zijin didn't doubt Yexin's words, Yexin would never joke about this kind of thing again, so God help me!

The corners of Zijin's mouth hooked a strange arc, I don't know what His Majesty's mood is now?

Emperor Xuanwu is in a very bad mood now, or rather, a little irritable.

"Plague!"

The sound of Emperor Xuanwu gritting his teeth came from above Han Ran's head, but he still had the heart to study the distorted copper paperweight in front of him, and even thought with interest, no wonder the strength of the prince of Yan Wang was so great, it turned out to be a family history.

"Go check it out for me! I'd like to see how many people are involved in this! ”

"Commandment."

Han Ran cautiously walked out of the hall gate, looked up at the clear sky, shook his head and left.

What a good day, why don't some people want to see it?

……

Tonganhou Mansion

"What did you say!"

Tonganhou Li Shun's hand shook, and the hot tea spilled out of the cup, staining the brocade robe on his body, but he couldn't care about it.

"It's the plague, Master Hou." Xie Ying, the commander of the Soldiers and Horses Command Division, was already in a hurry, and more than 20 people had died outside the city, and this matter was about to be hidden, and if His Majesty found out at that time, it would be a ......

Xie Ying felt chills when she thought of the two drums placed at the entrance of the yamen, this matter must not be known to His Majesty!

Li Shun had calmed down after the initial panic, and he had also made up his mind to hide this matter from him.

Otherwise, once you let the saint know, I am afraid that there is a risk of extinction!

"Who else knows about this?"

"The stakes are high, and the ministers have blocked the news."

Xie Ying saw that Li Shun was as calm as ever, and his heart gradually settled down, he followed Li Shun from beginning to end in this matter, since Li Shun, the mastermind, was not in a hurry, what was there to be afraid of.

"That's ......," Li Shun lowered his head and thought about what to do.

In fact, the most difficult thing is how to stop the mouths of those homeless people, otherwise once it is investigated, as long as one of those homeless people tells the truth, it will be a catastrophe for him! But people's hearts are difficult to calculate, who knows if those people will disobey the yang and the yin!

Since the living are difficult to control,

"Then let them all die."

What the?!

Xie Ying looked at Li Shun in shock, there were not one or two hundred homeless people outside the city, that were more than 10,000 young people! Although they have been starving for the past two months, and they have been affected by the plague, their bodies are generally weak, but they can't stand the number of them!

With so many people, do you want to keep all of them shut up and kill them?

Li Shun put down the teacup and said lightly, "The displaced people outside the city do not think about the grace of heaven and rob the grain depot, but fortunately, the soldiers of the capital protectorate are able to defend and repel the displaced people, and then there are several people who incite public opinion, so that the refugees riot, the capital protectorate desperately blocked it, and was forced to burn down the refugee camp due to lack of manpower, in order to delay the pace of the mob, and then got the support of the camp on the outskirts of Beijing and successfully exterminated the mob."

Does Master Xie think this method is feasible? ”

Xie Ying looked at the smile on Li Shun's face that was no different from usual, and felt a chill in her heart.

That's more than 10,000 lives! Just like that, the two fluttering sentences are gone, if one day it is himself who gets in his way, will it end like this?

Xie Ying didn't dare to think about it, and he couldn't think about it, he was now completely on the ship of Tong'an Hou Mansion, and there was no chance to turn back. Once the Tong'an Hou Mansion falls, when the time comes, pull out the radish and carry the mud, what good can he do.

For today's plan, only by trying our best to protect the Tong'anhou Mansion can we keep our Xie family's full house.

"Master Hou is thoughtful, and his subordinates admire."

I hope his method works, Xie Ying thought to herself, it's a big deal to die together!

"You go and arrange it, you don't have to worry about the camp on the outskirts of Beijing."

"Yes."

Xie Ying forced the urge to complain, as if he could manage the group of uncles in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing.

Xie Ying's movements were very fast, but she arranged all the affairs in more than ten days. In order to ensure that everything can go smoothly, he also deliberately chose an auspicious day of the zodiac, the night of the first day of the first lunar month.

On the first day of the 33rd year of Xuanwu, or the second day, the rebel rebellion of refugees gathered outside Jinling City was quickly suppressed by the soldiers of the camp on the outskirts of Beijing. The camp was also burned to the ground.

Fengtian Temple, which is going on, is the first small pilgrimage held during the annual vacation during the Xuanwu period.

Although Emperor Xuanwu has always liked to squeeze the holidays of officials, he has never taken up the five days of vacation in the New Year's Festival, even when he attacked Jiaozhi a few years ago, His Majesty did not take up the annual leave to deal with military affairs, and now he called the chief officials of all ministries into the palace on the second day of the Lunar New Year, which shows what Emperor Xuanwu was angry about.

"Li Hexin, I handed over this matter to you and allowed you the right to act cheaply, and this is the result of your handling? Even some homeless people can't be settled, what do I want you to do!

And you guys! Aren't they all very good at talking on weekdays? Yes? Why don't you say it? Are they all dumb! Virtue is not worthy! Virtue is not worthy! I raised you to let you come to the court to support the elderly! One by one, the corpses are greedy for ink, and they don't notice the suffering of the people, have you read all the books of the sages in the stomach of the dog! The moth of the country! The source of the troubled country ......"

Seeing that Emperor Xuanwu's topic was becoming more and more crooked, and there was a tendency to beat everyone in the world to death with a stick, Xiao Yuan stopped him in time.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the top priority is how to deal with the aftermath, and the rest of the matter can be postponed."

Emperor Xuanwu...... Dead boy, can't I scold two more sentences to get angry!

"What Erlang said is reasonable, what do you think?"

Emperor Xuanwu still gave face to his eldest grandson in the end, and turned to ask everyone about the aftermath.

As the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility, and in this dangerous moment when it is necessary to meet the wrath of His Majesty, of course, it is necessary for a professional back-bearer to appear (and not) the prime minister.

Li Shun stood up with the eyes of the six chiefs with gratitude and admiration.

"Please ask Your Majesty to issue an edict to reassure the people, and tell the officials to be cautious in disaster relief affairs, so as to prevent the regeneration of the people, and also to deter the small and stabilize the situation. The dead soldiers of the five military battalions and the soldiers and horses command division must also be counted by the military department, and their bereaved families will be bereaved.

And now that spring is gradual, the mob of ambush still needs to be properly handled, in order to prevent the epidemic, the minister thinks that the fire is the best. ”

"Do you have any doubts?"

"Your Majesty," said the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, "this sudden change, fortunately, thanks to the Soldiers and Horses Division to deal with it properly, and the five military battalions to rescue quickly, only then did they refuse the mob outside the city gates, and the ministers thought that the Soldiers and Horses Division and the five military battalions should be rewarded as officials on duty." ”

"Exactly."

Emperor Xuanwu's gaze swept over the other few people who did not speak, and finally stopped at Li Shun, "This matter is still handed over to the prime minister, if there is any more bad pool, I will severely punish it!" ”

"Commandment."

After the ministers in the palace left one after another, Emperor Xuanwu rubbed his forehead and asked casually, "Erlang, what do you think about today's events?" ”

Xiao Yuan thought back to what happened after receiving the news this morning, and said with a little hesitation, "Grandson always feels that something is wrong. ”

Emperor Xuanwu looked at Xiao Yuan's thoughtful appearance and became interested, and said, "Let's hear it." ”

"Sun Er felt that there were three suspicious things, one of them, the death and injury of the Terracotta Division, ninety and a half of the people of the Terracotta Division died, which is not like a group of unarmed homeless people can do;

Second, the arrival of the Shenji Battalion was too timely, and third, according to Tong Anhou, the death and injury of those homeless people was due to the fierce resistance of the homeless people, and the Shenji Battalion issued a killing order, but Sun Er always felt a little strange, this is not like suppressing the mob, it is like ......"

Xiao Yuan stopped, looked at Emperor Xuanwu carefully, and saw that he didn't react before he continued, "It's like killing people." ”

"That's right," Emperor Xuanwu got up and grabbed Xiao Yuan, and walked out of the hall with a smile, "Let's go, accompany me to the East Palace." ”
