Late at night, Taiyang City.

"The air is dry, be careful of the candles!" the sound of the husband's horn echoed under the dark curtain of Taiyang City.

If it weren't for the light of the fires in the middle of the city, the city would have almost died, and the black fog that could not be dispersed like ink made the city look lifeless after a terrible catastrophe.

Although more than half a month has passed, there are still families in the city who wear filial piety and hang banners at the door.

The crown prince quickly counted the casualties in Taiyang City after the catastrophe passed, this city with a population of about 100,000 directly killed nearly one-fifth in a catastrophe, about 20,000 people died, seriously injured, screaming and waiting for death to embrace more than 30,000 people.

As a result, the city lost half of its population, of which about 10,000 were killed in battle, and the number of people destroyed by the epidemic reached 80 percent of the casualties.

Although the spread of the epidemic has dropped dramatically with the death of the disease, and the number of infected people has been effectively controlled, the loss of half of the population has plunged the entire city into extreme grief and paralysis.

While the crown prince was there, he could also rely on his immense prestige and administrative skills to force officials to govern the dilapidated city.

But when the crown prince had to leave Taiyang City because of the attack of the four princes in the capital, the entire Taiyang City suddenly lost its backbone.

The most hated by the people, Taishou Li Tian, returned to his post for "meritorious service", and this news made the entire Taiyang silent!

The officials were afraid that Li Tian would settle accounts after the autumn because of their betrayal at that time, and the people were even more afraid that Li Tian would take revenge madly because of their betrayal.

And Taishou Li Tian was also very afraid, he was afraid that he would anger the prince again and lose his official position, so that he would really be completely doomed!

After the official was reinstated, Li Tian was at a loss for a while, he was originally a straw bale rice bucket, the post of Taishou was bought with money, and the cost of bribery had not yet been recouped before he encountered this matter, if he had a little brain and skill, he would not have done the same crazy and stupid thing as before.

Where can such a person rule over a city?

Thinking about it, Li Tian didn't dare to trust those colleagues who fell into the well after his downfall, he had no choice but to find the previous master again, the middle-aged master was very unlucky, he had died of the epidemic, Ji Chen was alive and kicking, he lived well, and he was a good person who did not live long, and the disaster was left behind for a thousand years.

"On the morning of the 19th, after the Great Dynasty Meeting, Pei Rengui, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials, resigned from his official position in the impeachment and was succeeded by the former Taizhou Taishou Qianshanyue transferred to Beijing......"

In the study of the Taishou Mansion, Li Tian's eyes widened as he listened to Ji Chen read the palace newspaper to him, and when he heard this, he suddenly changed in horror: "How is this good? Why can't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince even keep Zuo Shilang?"

His official position was bought in the hands of Pei Rengui, the left attendant, and now Pei Rengui has stepped down because of the fierce impeachment of the officials of the four princes and one party, does this mean that they will start purging the officials of their lineage?

Moreover, Pei Rengui was impeached and removed from office, which is a political weather vane that shocks officialdom very much.

Pei Rengui is one of the five henchmen around the prince, although his official position is not very high, but he has a bright future, and he has always been the standard-bearer of the prince's family of officials, if he falls, it means that none of the officials under the prince's wing are safe!

Moreover, this also means that the emperor is already a little dissatisfied with what the crown prince has done, otherwise he would not have acquiesced in Pei Rengui's resignation after he was assassinated.

Ji Chen raised his head and said with a slight smile: "Boss, rest assured, this turmoil should end here." ”

Taishou Li Tian blinked his small sesame eyes and asked puzzledly, "What is this statement?"

Ji Chen said eloquently: "Pei Rengui's resignation is the practice of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince abandoning the car to protect the handsome, and Pei Rengui just stepped down and did not investigate his responsibility, and he was transferred to the Hanlin Academy to teach a bachelor, and he did not stay away from the important land of Shenjing, which can be regarded as the prince's protection of him, and the future comeback is just around the corner." ”

But in the eyes of Taishou Li Tian, being transferred to the ghost place of the Hanlin Academy means being exiled, what kind of life is there in this kind of bitter cold place where there is not even a little oil and water?

Li Tian grimaced and said, "What about me?

Ji Chen said: "If the boss can solve the prince's worries, he will definitely sit back and relax!"

Li Tian's spirit was shocked, and he said, "Oh, how can we solve the prince's worries?"

Ji Chen said: "Naturally, I am loyal to the prince, anxious about the prince's worries, and worried about the prince's worries!"

Li Tian immediately turned over and knelt down, kowtowed in the direction of Shenjing, and said: "I am loyal to the prince, my liver and brain are full of blood, and I have no two hearts!" As he spoke, he raised his head, looked at Ji Chen with blank eyes, and said, "What should I do?

Ji Chen's eyes quickly showed a trace of disdain, but he quickly hid it and said, "Boss, you just need to think about it, what does Your Highness want to see the most at the moment, and what does you least want to see?"

Li Tian's face was dazed, like a cloud falling for eight hundred miles, and he opened his mouth but couldn't speak.

The disdain in Ji Chen's eyes became more and more intense, he lowered his head, and said in a respectful tone: "What the prince wants to see most at this time is that the affairs of Taiyang can no longer bother him, and what he is most afraid of seeing is that the affairs of Taiyang City will once again spread and become a lever for the four princes to attack him! Therefore, the boss only needs to manage Taiyang in an orderly manner, which is enough to share the worries of the prince, and it is enough to make meritorious contributions!"

Li Tian was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up and said deeply to Ji Chen: "This official is blunt, then there is Master Lao!"

Ji Chen smiled and nodded, returned the salute, and said, "The villain has done his best, and he will die!"

The two talked again, and then Ji Chen got up to say goodbye, and Li Tian reluctantly took Ji Chen's hand and sent him to the door before leaving.

But Ji Chen didn't have the slightest touch of being too polite, he had already seen through the stupid and stupid pig-like Taishou in front of him, with a cold and selfish temperament, before his colleague master was infected with the epidemic, but Li Tian didn't care about him, even if he knew that after the other party died, he didn't even pay a copper plate for the funeral fee, and treated him like a shoe.

This made Ji Chen naturally feel like a rabbit was dead and a fox was sad.

"However, if you don't do things for this stupid pig now, where is the place for you to get ahead?" Ji Chen stood on the empty and dark street, he was dazed and helpless, a fire burned in his heart, but he didn't know where to burn.

And at this moment, a terrible scream suddenly sounded in the dark night in the distance of Taiyang City, and then the eastern corner of the city boiled.

"Youkai, there are youkai!"

Even if it was far away, Ji Chen could hear it clearly.

For Taiyang City, which has just suffered a catastrophe, it has been attacked by monsters again, it is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the ship was broken and encountered a head wind, and the disaster is not a one-way street!

However, Ji Chen's heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly realized: His chance to come out has come!
