As a five-grade condensing soul realm, Xu Yuan still can't resist the severe cold of this side, let alone ordinary mortals.

At the beginning, Xu Yuan and his entourage went north along the official road, and almost all the areas around the official road were the most developed boundaries.

But even so, there are still many people who have died.

The Blizzard Disaster represents something simple and brutal.

Hungry for thousands of miles, countless frozen bones, easy to eat.

Since the imperial court has chosen to use the sword against the northern sect, all the wars or production machines between the imperial family and the prime minister will revolve around this point.

Although the imperial court was the first to eat the martial arts hall, which liberated the extraordinary productive force, its resources were not endless.

A large amount of resource investment, a large number of cultivator scheduling, these things are consuming the family funds accumulated by the imperial court.

The three continents in the north are thousands of miles long, and the victims are hundreds of millions, which will inevitably consume a large amount of materials and military strength in the imperial treasury.

There is no choice in this world that can have both, and the two in Di'an City can only choose one of the two.

Disaster relief, or the elimination of the northern sects.

Now it's clear that the two have chosen the latter.

Because the opportunity is only this one.

Looking at the dead stone house in front of him, which was half crushed by the blizzard, Li Qingyan asked Tianyan rhetorically, and his voice was very soft:

"If it weren't for the local government opening a warehouse to release grain to settle the price of grain, if it weren't for the local defenders organizing to go out to chop firewood, even that county might be a hell now."

Tianyan shook his head and just said in a low voice:

"Your Highness shouldn't have been to the Northern Counties for a while, right?"

“.” Li Qingyan sighed lightly and didn't speak again.

The reserves of local counties are exhausted, and the blizzard disaster has been extended for more than half a year, and even if the government releases grain, it is estimated that it has been empty.

She didn't want to debate such a childish topic with the other party, and she couldn't be convinced by the different positions.

The court is indeed responsible for disaster relief, but what about the northern sect?

The sect all says that they govern together, and they don't take their responsibilities, but they take their benefits?

In silence,

"Survival of the fittest, streamlining people who can survive natural disasters"

Bai Muxi interjected coldly, her voice a little strange: "Those who die are valuable, which can not only save resources, but also supply more resources to more suitable people, shouldn't this be a bad thing?" ”

“.” Tianyan looked back at the purple silk woman who looked well-behaved, but spoke terrifyingly.

Bai Muxi blinked his eyes, and his eyes were full of course.

Tianyan's reaction was very fast, and he looked at Xu Yuan:

"Xu Yuan, where did you rescue this maid?"

Xu Yuan stood in the snow, quietly looking at the dead stone house in front of him, and his voice was very soft:

"In a small place, they have no information, a harsh environment and limited resources, and useless people will be directly executed."

While talking,

He rolled his eyes and asked:

"By the way, Tianyan, have you ever come into contact with the things of your Heavenly Pavilion?"

"What's that?" Tianyan asked.

"For example, warehousing, such as chambers of commerce, such as annual balance books."

"Never."

"Ten fingers don't touch the spring water." Xu Yuan smiled sideways.

“.” Tianyan.

Xu Yuan exhaled faintly and said in a low voice:

"But since you haven't been in contact with it, you shouldn't know how thick the family background of a thousand-year-old sect will be."

Saying,

He looked at the stone house in the mountain village that had been broken down by the blizzard:

"In fact, the whole thing is not unsolvable, slaughtering the northern sect, robbing their warehouses, and releasing grain along the way for disaster relief, although it will be troublesome and slower, but the two should not conflict.

"Therefore, disaster relief is definitely inevitable, but with the current conditions, it must be a priority to exterminate the sect."

After that, he didn't explain too much, and walked straight towards the stone house.

Although Li Yaoxuan and his father want to exterminate the Northern Sect, they will definitely not want a rotten land without people.

The purpose of exterminating the barbarians and the local sects of the three continents in the north is to have a stable rear, a large rear that can continue to supply blood to the court.

All of them are destroyed, there is no population, no infrastructure, but it will become a burden on the imperial court.

The words fell silently, and the three girls were speechless.

Bai Muxi glanced at the second daughter without a trace, and silently followed the son into the stone house.

Surrounded by a stone fence, snow fell in the hospital, but Tianyan and Li Qingyan were still standing in place.

Ban Yu,

Tianyan said quietly:

"The catastrophe in the world is coming, and such internal friction is probably not a good thing."

Li Qingyan raised his eyes and looked at the sky:

"The catastrophe of the world? Your Excellency, do you believe what you say? ”

Tianyan glanced at her and spit out a sentence:

"Xia Worm can't say ice, the decline of my Heavenly Pavilion back then was because I spared no effort to fight the catastrophe."

"Maybe it was back then."

Li Qingyan bowed his head and did not deny what happened 10,000 years ago.

Ten thousand years ago, the power of the Heavenly Pavilion was well known, and the realm they divided back then was still in use, which can already be seen how prosperous it was at that time.

However, after a pause, Li Qingyan asked a little playfully:

"This was the case back then, but is the original intention of your Heavenly Pavilion still preserved?"

Tianyan stood suspended in the air, Liu Mei frowned, and said lightly:

"The catastrophe is approaching, and I should do my part, but the premise of all this is that it must survive first."

"This palace thought you would say something false."

Li Qingyan's voice was slightly surprised, and he chuckled: "It's so direct, this palace has some likes your temperament." ”

Tianyan's beautiful eyes narrowed:

"It's disgusting when you say that."

"Hide your jealousy, or you'll get people in trouble."

Li Qingyan bent his eyes and smiled, raised his palm to catch a fallen leaf, and suddenly asked, "You still want to go to Lingshui Palace?" ”

Tianyan glanced at her:

"Yes, I remember that I told you about it in Beifeng."

Li Qingyan looked at the smell of gunpowder in her eyes, and he was not angry, but said softly:

"This palace suggests that you change your itinerary, and Lingshui Palace should not go."

Tianyan Golden Pupil stared at her for a few breaths, and said in a low voice:

"Why?"

Li Qingyan's plain clothes swayed in the wind and snow, and he stood even more upright, and said casually:

"It's going to be dangerous there, and you might die if you go."

Lingshui Palace, the first case in the north.

According to the information obtained in Beifeng and Di'an City, the army around Lingshui Palace will be assembled within ten years.

The imperial court attached great importance to this first sect in the north.

The two towns of Beifeng, together with the town of the general named Yuan Hao who commanded the Black Scale Army.

A total of three towns, nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses.

In addition, there are also some barbarian wolf riders and foot battles who submit to the imperial court in order to survive.

The barbarians are defeated, and life will find its own way out.

No one in intelligent life wants to die, as long as they are given a chance, those scattered barbarian tribes will find their own reasons to surrender.

Like what

Their king fled and forsaken them.

They themselves will go south in order to have enough food and enough living space.

Now that the faith has collapsed, and the food and shelter are covered, under the propaganda of the high-level of its tribe, the Great Yan Imperial Court has incorporated a group of barbarian soldiers.

And under the Blizzard Catastrophe, there is no better army than the Barbarians.

Under such a configuration, it is impossible for the Lingshui Palace, which has lost its elite army, to survive.

In the first battle, the head of the northern sect was beheaded as a deterrent.

Tianyan was silent for a while, and then guessed in his heart, looking at the smile between the eyebrows and eyes of the woman opposite, he felt a little uncomfortable:

"Why did you tell me about this?"

Looking at each other for a few breaths, a little coldness flashed in Li Qingyan's phoenix eyes:

"Actually, this palace wants you to die there, isn't it very pleasant for the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Pavilion to die in the chaos?"

“.”

The words fell, and in the bleak cold wind, the atmosphere suddenly froze.

But the tense atmosphere only lasted for a moment.

Li Qingyan suddenly "fluttered" and smiled, smiling like a flower in the wind and snow:

"But ah, Hongu thought about it for a while, it would be too boring for you to die there, and it might be more interesting if you let you live."

There were some ripples in Tianyan's heart.

She felt that the plain princess in front of her looked like a madman.

"Interesting?"

"Hongu likes to see you angry and ruined."

“.” The corners of Tianyan's eyebrows jumped slightly, and he was inexplicably angry in his heart.

Calmly exhaling, she stared at her:

"Your bad taste is really vulgar."

Li Qingyan did not deny:

"Maybe, so you better not go."

"Your Royal Highness, I am not your subordinate, let alone the eagle dog of your royal family."

Tianyan's golden pupils shone with a burst of divine light, and the palace skirt fluttered: "Even if I go, I have the ability to save my life." ”

"This palace is not thinking about you."

Li Qingyan sensed a slight change in the source qi around him, his smile remained unchanged, his rustling voice became lower, and he was stunned word by word:

"Although Changtian has no feelings for you now, he may remember the so-called illusion in the future, if you die in the Lingshui Palace this time, even if you are not killed by the palace, it will become a thorn in the gap between the palace and him."

The cold wind erodes the bones, and the eyes are like ice.

Tianyan bit his lip:

"Your arrogant personality is disgusting."

Li Qingyan pursed his lips and bent his eyes, clasped his hands on his chest, and tapped his chin with his slender index finger:

"This palace likes your simple temperament, the more people lack something, the more they like something, so have you thought about it?"

Tianyan snorted coldly:

"I don't bother with my safety."

"Your going to the Lingshui Palace is nothing more than a signal, there is no need to oppose it in order to go against the palace."

Li Qingyan looked extremely comfortable in the face of Tianyan, as if he would see her heart clearly, and a pair of magnificent red eyes smiled: "On the contrary, rather than going to Lingshui Palace, this palace feels that you should be by Changtian's side." ”

“.” Tianyan suddenly fell silent, and the eyes that looked at her became a little strange.

"Don't look at Hongu like that." Li Qingyan's smiling eyes narrowed slightly: "That guy's cultivation is so weak, and his status is so high, it is inevitable that some young people will have bad thoughts about him, and this palace needs to stay in the northern army, and he lacks skills." ”

Saying,

She looked at her eyes and said word by word: "Si Ming's cultivation is too weak, but in the past few days, I have come to this palace to see your attitude, and my feelings for Changtian should not seem to be fake, and my cultivation is profound, so it is perfect to escort him back to Beijing." ”

Tianyan was stunned when he heard this, frowned, and hesitated in his voice:

"You let me go back to Beijing alone with him?"

"Isn't the commander a person?"

When Li Qingyan heard this, he knew that the other party had agreed, and said with a smile: "Tianyan, on the way back, don't be bullied by her." ”

“.” Tianyan clenched his fists.

After taking a deep breath and exhaling it, after calming the mood, his voice was crisp: "You are open-minded." ”

"Open-minded? Maybe. ”

Li Qingyan's red eyes were as bright as rubies in the wind and snow, and there was a smile on the corner of his lips:

"The love of the world eats the marrow and knows the taste, which makes people unconsciously want to accompany them, but Tianyan, in this world, there are more important things waiting for this palace to do."

“.”

Tianyan's eyes widened slightly, pursed his lips, opened his eyes sideways to look at him, and asked:

"Li Qingyan, with Changtian's identity and the talent he has revealed, no one should take the risk to attack him."

"In the Battle of Beifeng, his talent was discovered."

Li Qingyan smiled slightly, and a coldness flashed in his eyes:

"For this reason, Bengong and he have been assassinated once before, and it may be dangerous to return to Beijing on this trip, so I need you to protect him."

"Who?" Tianyan frowned.

Li Qingyan did not answer positively:

"When the time comes, you can ask Changtian yourself."

Hearing this, Tianyan stopped talking, suspended his bare feet in the air and moved slightly, and walked towards the stone house.

As she walked to the door, her crisp voice whispered:

"I don't hate you that much now."

“.”

Li Qingyan smiled when he heard this, and said with a smile:

"Just because this palace allows you to be alone with Changtian? You're such a coaxing little girl. ”

“.”

Tianyan's delicate body trembled, gritted her teeth, and Yuan Qi overflowed instantly.

Li Qingyan walked on his slender jade legs, passed by Tianyan who was stagnant in mid-air, leaned into her ear, exhaled like an orchid, and said in a very soft voice:

"Look, I'm angry again.

"On the way back to Beijing, this palace thinks that Tianyan you may be bullied to death by that Si Ming~"

After that, she rubbed her head when Tianyan was angry, and then walked directly into the stone house, leaving Tianyan's petite body standing outside the house and trembling with anger.

And the moment he walked into the stone house, Li Qingyan's good mood disappeared in an instant.

The fire lamp dispelled the cold in the stone house, and a dark jade bed taken out of the Sumeru ring was placed in the center.

Xu Yuan leaned on the soft jade pillow on the bed, and Bai Muxi, dressed in purple gauze and satin, sat on the root of his leg with his buttocks crossed, and his two jade hands gently pressed his waist.

The posture is somewhat ambiguous.

Looking at a man and a woman on the jade bed, Li Qingyan smiled on his lips:

"Changtian, if you are really uncomfortable, why don't you let this palace press you?"

Xu Yuan glanced back at her and didn't say anything.

It doesn't matter, Xiaobai will make a move.

Seeing this, Bai Muxi lowered his eyes, got down from the man, and said obediently:

"Your Highness, yes."

"Shut up."

Li Qingyan's cold gaze swept over:

"How is the cultivation of the Six Elements of the Turbulent Yuan? Do you have the heart to do these things? ”

As she spoke, she took out a whip from the Sumeru ring: "It just so happens that this palace hasn't tested your progress for a long time." ”

Bai Muxi shrunk his neck and was immediately silenced.

It's bad, Xiaobai can't play this bad woman.

Xu Yuan sat up from the jade bed with a calm face, put his elbows on his knees, looked at her at the door and smiled:

"Finished whispering with Tianyan? What whispers to avoid me? ”

Li Qingyan's plain clothes fluttered, put away the whip and walked to the bedside, squinting his eyes:

"After arriving at Guangyang Mansion, Tianyan will send you back to Beijing, and before you have left, let the palace serve you for Changtian~"

“.” Xu Yuan.
