The passage of midsummer little by little made the entire Jiangnan more and more uneasy.

The ancient clan pinned all their hopes on the Metropolitan Governor Xie Hua, and in this way, the people in Jiangnan were still very uneasy, but because of this, more and more people came to Qingshan County.

After Yuan Qing left, there seemed to be no more constraints on the entire land south of the Yangtze River.

In addition, Martial King Yuan Tieshan was disheartened and betrayed this Great Wei.

His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei is not even what Qianfu refers to now.

killed Princess Qiuhua, no matter what, Princess Qiuhua died on the secret poison of the royal family, not from a foreign enemy.

This matter is inseparable from the entire imperial family of the Great Wei.

The good deeds have made a lot of speculations about this matter, but no one would have thought that Princess Qiuhua would sacrifice herself for the sake of the Yuan family.

Anyone who has read a little bit knows that Princess Qiuhua was married to Yuan Tieshan, which was a political marriage in itself, and Princess Qiuhua was to monitor Yuan Tieshan.

Now that this person is dead, not in the hands of Yuan Tieshan, but in the hands of the royal family.

While people are speculating, they are also wondering, why did His Majesty the Emperor do this?

I pondered hard, but I couldn't get a decent answer.

The order in the land south of the Yangtze River began to become chaotic, and it can be said that there are more and more people who come to Qingshan County to survive, but most of these people are northerners.

Yuan Tieshan has already gathered with his youngest son.

Judging from the strength on the books, no matter how you look at it, it is Yuan Tieshan and the top of the clouds that can crush the Jiangnan Water Division.

There is also a rumor that the Black Dragon King is also a general at the top of the clouds.

The legend of the Black Dragon King has never disappeared in the entire Jiangnan land since ancient times, and there is an indescribable sense of fear for the Black Dragon King, the children and the elderly in the south of the Yangtze River, although most people have never seen the Black Dragon King's deity.

Castle Peak County.

Zhong Nan was naturally happy to see more and more people moving closer to Qingshan County, towards the old Nanyue, and towards the land of Xiongzhou.

But Zhang Gong was not very happy about this, and said: "The common people have really followed the crowd since ancient times, and they feel that where their personal safety is more secure, they will go wherever they go." ”

"It has indeed increased our population, but these people can come to us and go to others. ”

"There's not a shred of faith at all. ”

Zhong Nan said: "That's good, since we have come here, as long as we are competitive enough, the population who comes here will also pay taxes to us and increase the population." ”

"Population is the foundation of everything. ”

"But then again, the people who came here are mixed, some people want us to take Jiangnan and then return to the rest of the states and counties, and some people come here with their families and take the initiative to worship us at the pier. ”

"The advantage of the turbulent flow of people is that our treasury has been filled a lot recently, although most of them are northerners, but there are also a small number of southerners who have come to our top of the clouds, and the matter of harmony between the north and the south, His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei has not done it, I hope we can do this. ”

"For a while, because of the differences in humanistic habits, customs and beliefs, there will naturally be various contradictions and conflicts in the early stage, and how to govern these things will be explained to you. ”

Zhang Gongdao: "The civil officials we selected have already begun to work on these things, and the county magistrates in various places do not dare to really be county magistrates and honestly handle government affairs." ”

"When the population increases, the wasteland can be cultivated again. ”

"In the same way, there are a lot of fine works that come to us, and the flow of people is so large, we can't find a suitable opportunity to find out these fine works. ”

If you follow the crowd, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu will come, and you can't find where anyone is for a long time.

A random person on the street may be from an iron hook, or it may be just an ordinary ordinary person.

The slightest carelessness can lead to indiscriminate killing of innocent people.

But at this time, the battle of Jiangnan has not yet begun, and there are not enough elites to capture those fine works.

Zhong Nan thought to himself, put up with it for a while, and then talk about it.

Anyway, at this moment, even if those fine works come, under the current momentum at the top of the clouds, I am afraid that they will not dare to do anything excessive.

Zhong Nan said: "The time to test the literati has come, with such a large population, there are also many depressed people in it, maybe some people really have real talents and real learning." ”

"In my opinion, choose a day, open a small dragon gate, and Ren Xian can use this kind of thing, which needs to be continued. ”

"Whether it is the old South Vietnam or the land of Jizhou, anyway, the number of civil officials will always be in short supply. ”

"This time, taking advantage of such a huge population, be sure to pick out a part of our really talented people. ”

Zhang Gongdao: "I understand, I will arrange these things, but according to a grapevine, Yuan Qing is no longer in Huayang City recently, and it seems that he has returned to the land south of the Yangtze River, and there is a certain possibility to go to the cloud city." ”

Zhong Nandao: "The lord's family affairs, we don't have to worry about it, the lord is not the kind of mediocre and incompetent person, internal affairs, even if it is with iron-blooded means, must be stabilized, according to my guess, the lord should have a showdown with Uncle Yuan Tieshan." ”

"Let's take Jiangnan first, this thing in the future is a bit messy, we can't guess out of thin air, maybe it's Lao Tzu who supports his son, maybe it's his son who is Lao Tzu's pioneer, who knows." ”

Zhang Gongdao: "It's better for Lao Tzu to support his son, my son is a bit of a disadvantage as Lao Tzu's pioneer, especially for people like us." ”

Zhong Nan laughed and said, "I hope your expectations can be real." ”

Night.

The starry sky in Qingshan County in midsummer is not very cool, perhaps because after more people come here, the original coolness has disappeared with the increase in population.

Not to mention anything else, recently, the inns, restaurants, green buildings, etc. in Qingshan County, the business can no longer be described as hot, basically making money every day, and even, making several dollars of gold every day.

Population is the basis for the development of anything.

Sun Yushu's road construction, with the increase in the number of people who came here, the pressure in the treasury decreased sharply.

There are even many wild tours in the rivers and lakes, because there is no money to eat, and they also go to build roads, earn some wages every day, and have a round belly.

In the past, when recruiting workers, although Sun Yushu raised his salary very high, there were not many people who were willing to go to places like Tiaogu Mountain, which led to the progress of road construction being very slow.

But this time, many people rushed to do such hard work as road construction.

Even though most of them are wild tours in the rivers and lakes, they understand the importance of survival and will definitely not cut corners because building roads is a chore, because they know very well in their hearts that the current mountain of Tiaogu is no longer the mountain of Tiaogu before.

If one person is not good, just change one person.

There are many people, there is also great competition, and everyone has a sense of crisis in their hearts.

Driven by this sense of crisis, it is natural to do the best at what is at hand.

After nightfall, Zhong Nan has been busy in the study, and Xiao Zizhen has fallen asleep.

When a person is busy, the whole world will be quiet, when Zhong Nan was alone before, he hoped that there would be a woman next to him to add fragrance to his red sleeves, but after Xiao Zizhen really added fragrance to Zhong Nan's red sleeves, Zhong Nan had many things that he was not used to.

Or like to handle things alone.

One is the foundation of all things.

After almost disposing of the official folds on the table, Zhong Nan stretched.

Suddenly, his brows furrowed, and he subconsciously walked out of the study and came to the courtyard.

In the pavilion, a young man dressed in a python robe and jade belt stood with his hands in his hands, staring at the starry sky.

Zhong Nan said: "Being able to come here silently, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is really unfathomable." ”

As a 10,000-strong enemy, Yuan Qing should be the most powerful 10,000-person enemy in this period.

The glorious record is real.

Yuan Qing turned around and said, "If I want to come here, I can come here at any time." ”

Zhong Nan instructed the maid to go and make tea, and the tea was wild tea that Su Yi had collected from the depths of the Qinling Mountains.

Walking into the gazebo, the maid soon brought tea, as well as some beef and peanuts, and seasonal side dishes.

Zhong Nan said slightly apologetically: "His Royal Highness the Prince of the World came down too suddenly, I didn't have time to prepare it carefully, these coarse tea and light rice, I hope His Royal Highness the Prince will not dislike it." ”

It seems to be coarse tea and light rice, but in fact, it is big oil and meat, and there are not a few.

Yuan Qing took a sip of tea and said in surprise: "This tea is good, there should be no such tea in the world." ”

Zhong Nandao: "This tea comes from the depths of the Qinling Mountains, it was picked by Mr. Su Yi, not long ago, I went to Yunshang City, and Mr. Su Yi sent me a few sacks. ”

How many sacks?

Hearing this, Yuan Qing was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Sure enough, you scholars are the masters who make a fortune without making a sound, I don't know if there is any excess of this tea, give me a sack too." ”

Zhong Nan sandwiched a piece of beef for Yuan Qing and said with a smile: "If the rest of the people ask me this, I will naturally say no, since His Royal Highness the Prince has spoken, I can still get a sack of tea." ”

Yuan Qing said: "Refreshing, you don't have the twists and turns of most readers." ”

I don't know if people will think that Zhong Nan is deliberately currying favor with Yuan Qing, after all, at the moment, the relationship between the top of the clouds and the Martial King Yuan Tieshan is a little delicate, plus the fact that Li Chen seriously injured Yuan Lin, it is enough to poke Yuan Qing's anger.

But Zhong Nan just did it naturally, there were no superfluous thoughts, he was not the kind of person who was calculating and narrow-minded, Yuan Qing was naturally not this kind of person, if so, with Yuan Qing's martial arts cultivation, a face-to-face kung fu, it should not be difficult to tear Zhong Nan alive.

Zhong Nandao: "I have heard everything, and even I am very surprised. ”

"I also hope that His Royal Highness the Prince will not be too sad in his heart. ”

Yuan Qing said: "What do you think of Li Chen, I have never dealt with Li Chen, but I heard that the phoenix wings are in Li Chen's hands. ”

Zhong Nan said kindly: "Li Chen is very good to anyone, there are rules, but there is no difference between high and low. ”

"I have also heard about him and His Second Highness, for the sake of his brother, it should be, if Li Chen doesn't make a move, he will not be Li Chen, and he will also defile the phoenix wings and gold hammer in his hand. ”

"Although this is just a battle of will, but sometimes if you don't fight for it, that breath will be in your throat, and you will not be able to spit it out for a lifetime, especially for you martial artists. ”

Yuan Qing said: "Aren't you afraid, I will carry the dragon halberd and go to fight Li Chen head-on." ”

Zhong Nan said: "I'm not afraid, because if Your Highness were such a person, he wouldn't be here at this time." ”

"Moreover, as far as I know, His Highness's strength should be above Li Chen, although Li Chen has a phoenix winged gold pistol in his hand, but he has not bathed in the blood of the true dragon, and he has only devoured the inner Dan of the Purple Jinpeng Bird, and it is not the Inner Dan of Kunpeng, and His Royal Highness has an absolute advantage in the strength of the book. ”

The "Seal of Life and Death" is the supreme practice of the Great Qin Heavenly Demon Sect.

But if it is compared with the top exercises such as "Dragon Capture Gong" and "Innate Gang Qi", the supremacy of "Life and Death Seal" seems to be commonplace, and it can only be said that each has its own merits, and no one's exercises will occupy an absolute advantage.

Yuan Qing said: "After knowing that the second brother was beaten by Li Chen, I really wanted to kill back and give the second brother a breath." ”

"But I thought about it again, the concubine should have made such a choice because of the overall situation, and as a prince, I can't add fuel to the fire in the current situation. ”

"I'm here in the hope that you can promise me one thing. ”

Zhong Nan's face was as usual: "I don't know what kind of thing it is?"

Yuan Qing said slowly: "After you take the land south of the Yangtze River, leave Xie Hua alive, and don't kill Xie Hua." ”

Zhong Nan nodded and said, "Understood." ”

I didn't ask the extra reason, and if I asked it, it wouldn't be interesting.

Yuan Qing will not leave Xie Hua's life for no reason.

Zhong Nan asked rhetorically, "Apart from Xie Hua, whose lives need to stay?"

Yuan Qing said: "There is a person who is going to be killed." ”

Zhong Nandao: "Who is it?"

Yuan Qing said: "Zhuge Qingfeng, the old patriarch of the Zhuge family. ”

Zhong Nan's heart sank, and he subconsciously said, "Is it involved in the layout of immortals?"

Yuan Qing said: "Mr. is really smart, and he can't hide anything from Mr." ”

"As for how Zhuge Qingfeng died, I don't care, as long as he dies. ”

Zhong Nan summed it up and said, "I'll look at it." ”

Yuan Qing must have discovered some secret things, but Yuan Qing didn't say it, and it was not convenient to say it.

Eating meat and drinking tea, Zhong Nan ordered the maid to carry a sack of tea leaves.

The sack is large enough to fit two people inside.

Seeing such a sack, Yuan Qing smiled and said: "What is sincerity, this is sincerity......"
