The magnates of Huizhou County died quietly in this early morning, and the solemn and solemn county government hall turned into a purgatory on earth.

Turning into the back hall, there is a slender viewing corridor flanked by autumn leaf courtyards.

Here, Xu Yuan once again saw the beautiful woman who was by the artificial lake before.

This time, the other party put on a belly pocket, and under the service of the maid, he enjoyed a rather luxurious breakfast with a man who looked a little similar to Liu Xianling.

Handsome men and beautiful women, smiling and smiling, with the autumn wind blowing the golden leaves look very beautiful.

Behind the hall is the living place of the county order, it seems that Xu Yuan guessed that he was right, the other party was indeed the concubine or daughter of the county order.

I don't know what kind of expression the other party will have when he sees the scene in the court?

Just a wall separates the bloody hell of the main hall from the beautiful scenery of the back hall.

"Changtian, do you want to extinguish your mouth?"

Lou Ji also saw a pair of beautiful people over there, and asked with interest: "These two people seem to be the sons and daughters of that Liu County Order." ”

Xu Yuan looked back and asked, "Is it necessary?" ”

The two of them were shrouded by Lou Ji's normal Dao domain, and others couldn't perceive it at all.

Lou Ji bent her eyes and said with a smile: "Maybe people can get the opportunity to practice in the future, and come to Changtian for revenge?" ”

"Seek revenge on me?"

Xu Yuan glanced at Lou Ji strangely, shook his head, and walked all the way inside along the corridor: "Then they may have to queue up for several years." ”

A smile flashed in Lou Ji's beautiful eyes, and she sighed with some embarrassment:

"People in their twenties who are only eight-grade cultivators can let them go, but these carefree days have most likely nothing to do with them, maybe tomorrow these two will have to live on the streets.

"As an official, it's really a step of heaven, a step of hell~"

Xu Yuan's footsteps paused slightly, he heard the ridicule in Lou Ji's words, and chuckled:

"Sister, do you think I've gone too far?"

Between the walks, Lou Ji smiled and stepped forward to hook Xu Yuan's arm:

"Sister, I didn't say that it's not an exaggeration to die a hundred times for what these people do, but. . . It's really a bit of a rush to kill them all at once. ”

Xu Yuan instantly understood the meaning of the other party's words, and said:

"You mean Huizhou County will be in chaos?"

Lou Ji nodded, glancing at the blood-colored yatang behind him:

"These people who died this morning basically control all aspects of Huizhou County, and now that they are dead, those under them will definitely not be at peace, and when the time comes, the order will collapse and the interests will fall, I am afraid that Huizhou County will not even be able to achieve the most basic stability."

It's easy to kill, but it's the consequences of killing that are difficult.

The people of the white and the underworld are served in a pot, and chaos is inevitable under the leaderless group of dragons.

However, Lou Ji was not silent for too long, giggled, and changed the conversation:

"These things, my sister will help you deal with them this time, but next time you remember to pay attention to the consequences."

"Before coming here, I had already asked Bai Muxi to do it."

Xu Yuan calmly interrupted Lou Ji's words: "The ordinary government affairs in Huizhou County are handled by the master in the yamen, as for the six gentry families in Huizhou County. Mu Xi knew what to do. ”

Lou Ji raised her eyebrows, slightly interested: "Oh? How? ”

Xu Yuan smiled lightly:

"Kill, treat, accept as a dog."

The corners of Lou Ji's ruddy and seductive lips were hooked, and a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes:

"It may be useful to bring people to their knees with absolute violence, but the question is that we are only here for a long time, can you stay here all the time, or can you come here every now and then to inspect?

"If not, these gentry will most likely converge for a few years, and they will return to their original state, and they will even evolve into relying on you, and they will become even more intensified."

"Of course I do."

Xu Yuan shook his head with a smile: "There is one thing that I have always forgotten to tell my sister. ”

Lou Jiliu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and there was a trace of doubt in her eyes: "What's the matter?" ”

"There are still hundreds of thousands of people alive in the Jedi where Bai Muxi is."

“.” Lou Ji's eyes were even more puzzled.

"I told Bai Muxi that if she handles this matter well, then all the properties in this place will belong to her."

Lou Ji's good-looking willow eyebrows tightened:

"You're doing this just to embezzle the property of these ordinary gentry?"

She was very dissatisfied with Xu Yuan's explanation.

The only commendable thing about this place in Huizhou County is that it is close to the official road, and there are no special minerals, nor a spiritual field for cultivating medicinal herbs, and the county is not too prosperous.

Not to mention the industries inside and outside the city.

The strongest of the six gentry in the city was nothing more than a condensing soul, and the cultivation resources controlled by this kind of force were basically equivalent to none, and most of them were mundane things.

Thinking in her heart, Lou Ji's eyes suddenly glanced in the direction of the blood-soaked yatang.

She sensed that Bai Muxi's Qi machine had gone there.

She took away a lot of people's heads, and also took away the evidence of the crime that Xu Yuan threw on the ground, thinking that she was going to use these things to collect people as dogs.

sighed again in her heart, and Lou Ji's mood calmed down a little.

At best, if you use this to trap a genius great master, it is not a loss.

"Hey, hey."

Xu Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand in front of Lou Ji and shook it: "Sister, what do you want?" ”

Lou Ji glared at the other party with a twisted eye, thinking in her heart that this kid still had a long way to go, and said angrily: "It's nothing, I'm afraid it's not difficult to migrate hundreds of thousands of people to this Huizhou County." ”

"You'll help, won't you?" Xu Yuan winked at Lou Ji.

Lou Ji raised her slender hand and rubbed her eyebrows helplessly: "Do you know what the concept of migrating hundreds of thousands of people is?" ”

"Not helping?"

"Figure it out for yourself."

"Why?"

"No why."

"Didn't you say you were all up to me?"

"Sister, I've changed my mind now, do you have an opinion?"

Lou Ji snorted lightly and turned her face away.

The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

She thought that Changtian acted like this because she already knew that she could solve this kind of erosive grassroots governance, but she didn't expect to end up with her eyes on these three melons and two dates.

Xu Yuan still smiled when he saw this:

"Sister, are you angry?"

"Not angry, a little disappointed."

"Why the disappointment?"

“#！”

The corners of Lou Ji's lips pursed slightly, and she wanted to beat people at this moment with her qi cultivation skills.

“.”

Looking at Lou Ji's already somewhat unkind gaze, Xu Yuan's face immediately turned pale.

This old lady is really going to beat him.

"You think I'm too superficial?"

"What do you say?"

"Then what if I say that most of Bai Muxi's hundreds of thousands of people have cultivation qualifications, and they have been brainwashed by religion and are loyal?"

“.”

When the words fell, the corridor was instantly quiet and could be heard.

Lou Ji subconsciously stopped, and looked back at Xu Yuan's smiling expression in a daze.

Looking at each other, Lou Ji's tone took a hint of seriousness:

"Changtian, are you right?"

As the absolute high-level of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the chief of the Black Scale Guard, Lou Ji knew very well what was behind these words.

As the "recruiting agency" of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Cheonan Martial Arts Hall is all over the world, but it is extremely difficult to recruit a Black Lin Army.

Most of the people in this world who can't practice occupy the majority, and there are very few people left who can go through the layers of screening in the Tian'an Martial Arts Pavilion, and in the end, after graduating from the Tian'an Martial Arts Pavilion, they may not necessarily choose to join the Black Scale Army.

It's a bit too much to say it's one in a hundred.

Decades of accumulated layout, less than a million.

Now there are suddenly hundreds of thousands of people with cultivation qualifications and loyal loyalty.

And

These people are now unknown to anyone.

The autumn breeze blew through the soft green silk, Lou Ji's breathing gradually accelerated, the soft waves on her chest began to fluctuate, and the green eyes looked at the stinky boy in front of her.

Seeing this old lady in such a posture for the first time, Xu Yuan's eyes shook and coughed lightly:

"I have seen the map before I came to Huizhou County, although this Huizhou County is not a strategic place, but the traffic is very convenient, located at the junction of Guanghuai and Jingbei Prefecture, to the west 100 miles is the official road of Jingbei, the north can control the traffic artery Qinlong Pass, and the south can directly enter the land of Gyeonggi.

"What's more, with the war in the north, the floating population here is huge, and there are no cultivation resources, and there are no scarce mineral veins, and the influx of a large number of refugees in the north will not attract the attention of other forces, and it can be used to hide soldiers."

As he spoke, Xu Yuan continued to walk along the corridor towards the secret room where the formation center was located:

"And Bai Muxi followed me because I could save the people under her command, and after a long time, she would have some complaints in her heart, and this time it can be regarded as an explanation for her."

Lou Ji followed slowly, her dress fluttering, leaving a piece of charming fragrance:

"So, Changtian you killed those officials on a whim?"

"No, it's really a whim."

Xu Yuan shook his head, his voice was very calm: "Looking at the stack of their crimes, I feel uncomfortable not killing them." ”

The indictments written on the paper are very brief, but what about behind those cold numbers?

Countless innocent, but died from the greed of these powerful people.

Lou Ji sighed faintly when she heard this, her eyes were slightly complicated:

"I see."

"But Changtian, this kind of thing will be done less in the future, although your identity allows you to kill these low-level magnates at will, but now the cornerstone of Great Yan's rule is these moths."

Xu Yuan chuckled lightly and said faintly:

"I know it's far from time to stab them."

"Knife?" Lou Ji frowned slightly.

Hearing this slightly surprised voice, Xu Yuan also returned to China with a slightly surprised look:

"Father, he didn't think of using a knife on these people?"

Lou Ji's charming eyes were a little funny, but also a little helpless, and asked with a smile:

"How to move? There will always be nobles in this world, and even if a group is killed, there will be new ones to replace the old ones.

"The land of a county can still be suppressed by the authority of the imperial court, if it is expanded to a county, a prefecture, or even a continent, it will be the beginning of turmoil."

Xu Yuan suddenly realized that his macho father's thinking still had the limitations of the times, and he was silent for a few breaths:

"At the very least, it is necessary to make it impossible for the powerful to treat human life as they do now."

Lou Ji smiled, looking at the man in front of her with calm eyes, as if she saw the shadow of the once outstanding young man:

"Your father also said it back then, but after so many years, he has given up, and even in a sense, he himself has become the powerful man who regards human life as a mustard."

There is always an insurmountable gap between ideals and reality.

Lofty ideals die of vulgar desires.

Xu Yuan chuckled and shook his head when he heard this:

"There will always be a way, even if my father can't do it, I can't do it, then future generations can always think of a way."

The corners of Lou Ji's lips hooked, and he laughed:

"Believe in the wisdom of future generations?"

While the two were talking, they had already walked through the slender corridor and came to an area with a stone tile courtyard wall, which was where the formation center of Huizhou County was located.

Under the influence of Lou Ji's normal Dao domain, the warriors guarding here did not notice the arrival of the two.

Xu Yuan was quiet for a while, and while stepping into the stone courtyard, he said softly:

"Not exactly, at least we can get a start."

Lou Ji's eyes flashed, hooked his arm, and asked with a smile:

"How?"

Xu Yuan shook his head and sighed leisurely:

"It's too far away, and now the problems of the sect have not been solved, and I think about this, and I feel a little like I started to celebrate at halftime."

Lou Ji hugged her arms a little, and her voice was soft:

"Tell me about my sister, Changtian, you seem to have some ideas?"

"It's too much, I can't say it for a while."

"Then you can tell my sister one of them~"

Xu Yuan glanced at the old lady who was almost hanging on him, sighed, and slowly spit out three words:

"Open the people's wisdom."

Lou Ji's eyes were a little strange when she heard this:

"Kai Minzhi?"

"It is often said that it is difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son, but this is said that the poor family is also a down-and-out gentry, which in the final analysis is that the gentry monopolize knowledge, and it is difficult for ordinary people to access books, and the imperial examination naturally has nothing to do with the grassroots Shuli."

Xu Yuan raised his hand and pointed at the county government, and continued: "Then since the people can't afford to read, it is better for the government to preach the world, recruit talents from all over the world for their own use, open up the channel for the rise of Shuli, supplemented by some system supervision, and to a certain extent, the particularity of these gentry can be banned." ”

Hearing Xu Yuan's general description, Lou Ji understood quickly, and her voice was a little serious:

"This method is not bad, and it is not difficult to support this move with the national strength of Great Yan"

Speaking of this, Lou Ji's voice froze.

She suddenly discovered the drawbacks of this method.

Her beautiful eyes narrowed, and her voice was slightly cold:

"Changtian, although this move can indeed weaken the gentry, but once it is wise and timely, it is not as simple as threatening the rule of the dynasty!"

Xu Yuan shrugged his shoulders and asked with a smile:

"If you can eat enough to live, who will be idle and have nothing to rebel about? Moreover, what is the difference between this move and his father's opening of a martial arts hall with the emperor to teach the law and Shu Li? ”

"It's a big difference!"

Lou Ji's voice was very serious: "Changtian, you should be clear about the fundamental difference between enlightening the people and teaching the Fa, and the scale of what you are talking about is far different. ”

Xu Yuan saw that he couldn't be fooled, so he shrugged his shoulders:

"There is no perfect thing in the world, there are pros and cons, and I also said, we are just the beginning, we must believe in the wisdom of future generations~"

Speaking of which,

Xu Yuan directly skimmed over this topic, pointed to the secret room engraved with the formation center in front of him, and said with a smile:

"Sister, let's go in and get down to business."

Seeing this familiar faceless and skinless, Lou Ji snorted coldly:

"I will explain this to your father, after dealing with this assassination, you will wait for him to talk to you when you return to Beijing on this trip."

Xu Yuan's dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, waved his hand, and asked with a smile:

"I know, I know, sister, how long will it take for Uncle Mother and Xu Changge to arrive?"
