Wenyuan Pavilion.

Lou Youzhi is handling government affairs as always.

Whether it is expressions, movements, or the efficiency of the reply and fold, it is the same as before.

However, none of the colleagues spoke on pins and needles.

Even a person as active and sleek as the second assistant Lu Zhong is meticulous at this time.

The atmosphere in the whole hall was extremely condensed.

Until the unitary time, the drum of the scattered value sounds.

Bang la blah.

Except for Lou Youzhi, everyone got up at the same time, and then greeted Lou Youzhi one by one according to the cabinet seat.

From beginning to end, Lou Youzhi didn't even raise his eyelids, and he was still correcting and correcting.

But judging from the huge table in front of him, and the height of the table case, I am afraid that it was not one person who did ninety percent of Wenyuan Pavilion's work.

"Hey......"

Dou Tianyuan couldn't stand it, and pushed the door out, "I watched you for two hours, and you didn't expose me." ”

"Not that effort."

Lou Youzhi's face was expressionless, and his hands kept moving.

"But you've been sitting here for ten days."

Dou Tianyuan said helplessly, "I know that Lao Jiang and Ling are young, fellow villagers, and classmates, but he is dead...... Why don't I take you to see the pile of minced meat, to see the skull, and let you remember it up close? ”

"His death was foreordained, and it wasn't a blow to me."

Lou Youzhi responded lightly.

"But you didn't expect ......"

Dou Tianyuan narrowed his eyes, "Your Majesty will beat him as a thief, and the ancestors of the Jiang family as a thief!" ”

Click!

Lou Youzhi finally stopped.

Because the pen in his hand was broken.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

Dou Tianyuan said coldly, "Do you know, if I hadn't found out in time, you would have secretly kept Lao Jiang's household registration, and you would have stabbed Your Majesty at this time!" ”

"I'm sure you can spot it and hold it down."

Lou Youzhi closed his eyes and kneaded the bridge of his nose, "Now that the person is dead, and the household registration is completely cancelled, don't worry about anything." ”

"Of course I'm not worried about that."

Dou Tianyuan's face became more and more cold, "What I'm worried about is the method you told me!" That way to keep Yongzhou! ”

"It's simple."

Lou Youzhi opened his eyes and flicked his fingers.

A report flew into Dou Tianyuan's hand.

"It's ...... Xue Rong! ”

Dou Tianyuan's eyes widened, and he quickly skimmed through the content, and then frowned: "I don't see any problems." ”

"Do you think Your Majesty will believe it?"

Lou Youzhi asked rhetorically.

"Won't it?"

Dou Tianyuan was puzzled, and read the report carefully again, "This is written very much in line with Lao Jiang's temper, it should be the truth, and it is also appropriate to ask if you want to stay...... Why do you think Your Majesty doesn't believe it? ”

"Your Majesty has not been in politics since then, except for the years when he ascended the throne, until now."

Lou Youzhi sneered, "How did he detect the Yongzhou anomaly earlier than everyone else?" ”

"What do you mean?"

Dou Tianyuan's complexion changed.

"It's simple, either he has a power in his hands that none of us know about, or ......"

Lou Youzhi's eyes turned cold, "He doesn't need to go through anyone to know what happened in Yongzhou, thousands of miles away." ”

"This ...... That's impossible. ”

Dou Tianyuan frowned and thought about it, and then shook his head, "If he had known what Lao Jiang had done, then the secret order given to me in the first place would not have been to explore Yongzhou." ”

"Yes, he can't know what Jiang Zhihong is doing, but he must know that the population of Yongzhou is declining sharply."

Saying that, Lou Youzhi sighed, "And we can't tell through what channel he found out." ”

"So ......"

Dou Tianyuan's face was difficult to look at, "This report can't delay at all?" ”

"Not only does it not have the effect of delaying, but it will immediately alert His Majesty."

Lou Youzhi affirmed, "Because, there is no hidden time of Jiang Zhihong's death in the newspaper, and ten days have passed since Jiang Zhihong's death, and theoretically, the population of Yongzhou has begun to rebound sharply. ”

"However, in fact, there is none."

Dou Tianyuan added in this direction, "So...... Once this recital is delivered, His Majesty will immediately understand that Xue Rong has betrayed! ”

"Then, it's not just the Golden Armor Floating Massacre that goes there."

Lou Youzhi continued.

"Otherwise."

Dou Tianyuan's eyes flickered, "Suppress this report?" ”

“……”

Lou Youzhi looked at Dou Tianyuan like a fool, "This kind of stupid idea actually came from the commander-in-chief of the dignified blood-clothed guard, it is simply appalling." ”

“…… All right. ”

Dou Tianyuan was a little embarrassed, "Then what should I do?" It's really not good, it seems that you can only give up Yongzhou. ”

"Give up Yongzhou?"

Lou Youzhi chuckled and shook his head, "Rather than giving up, I want to try it more and see this natural disaster...... How important it is to His Majesty. ”

“…… You are crazy?! ”

Dou Tianyuan's face changed greatly, "Lao Jiang used to have such a good relationship with His Majesty, don't you see what happened now?" ”

"It's because I saw it that I wanted to try it even more."

Lou Youzhi looked inexplicable.

Dou Tianyuan was silent for a long time and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Tomorrow's meeting."

Lou Youzhi stood up, "I will invite myself to be a relief envoy for Yongzhou." ”

“……”

After being silent for a long time, Dou Tianyuan dropped a sentence and pushed the door away.

"If you die, no matter how you died, I will not avenge you."

Hehe.

Lou Youzhi chuckled, put his hands behind his back, and walked out the door.

"Dead?"

"The first powerful minister in Daqing, a dignified traitor, how can he die so easily?"

The next day's meeting.

Under the wise hands of the first auxiliary building, the hundred officials discussed as usual.

Everything is no different from usual.

It wasn't until near the end of the court meeting that officials suddenly came out of the ranks.

"Minister, the Imperial Court of the Imperial Palace, Shi Hongjing, implore Your Majesty to immediately select officials, allocate materials, and go to Yongzhou for disaster relief!"

After all, it is a court meeting, even if Lou Youzhi leads on behalf of him, no matter what he wants to say, he must say that he is talking to Emperor Qing, not to Lou Youzhi.

But this sentence is obviously directed at Emperor Qing.

Unfortunately, after a while, there was silence behind the golden curtain.

"You should know that the granaries in various places have been burned, and the financing of grain is still in progress, far from the extent that it can be relieved."

Lou Youzhi waved his hand and motioned for Hong Jing to retreat.

"Shousuke's words are wrong!"

Another person came out of the ranks, it was the household servant, "Since the grain has already begun, it must have been partially raised, so this part of the grain will be transported to Yongzhou first, so that the people of Yongzhou can take a breath and buy time for the follow-up food raising." ”

"That's not true!"

"Do you know that if the disparity between the number of refugees and disaster relief food is too great, not only will it not have any disaster relief effect, but it will make the order of Yongzhou completely chaotic?" ”

"Order? Hahahaha! ”

The right deputy Du Yushi laughed sarcastically, "It has been nearly five months since the locust plague broke out in Yongzhou, and at this time, I am afraid that there are white bones everywhere and starvation in the wilderness, what kind of order can be spoken?" ”

After saying this, the right deputy capital Yushi hugged his fist towards the curtain behind the dragon chair: "Minister, I implore Your Majesty to help Yongzhou!" ”

This scene has actually happened many times.

For months, such a play has been staged almost every day at the court.

Each time, there was an endless debate between 'immediate disaster relief' and 'food procurement', and no one could gain the upper hand, and it has been a stalemate until now.

So the people behind the curtains didn't take it seriously at all.

Today, however, is different.

"You're fighting for it, it's just a matter of food."

Duke An Guo laughed, "It's not a secret, during this period of time, the old man has asked people to go to the provinces to raise donations, and enough food has been raised, as long as His Majesty wills, there will be a steady stream of grain to Yongzhou." ”

As soon as these words came out, the air in the hall seemed to become viscous and heavy.

It's pressure, pressure from behind the veil.

"Minister, I beg Your Majesty to ......"

An Guogong was not afraid, and his old body slowly bowed down, "Disaster relief Yongzhou!" ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

“……”

One official after another stood up, clenched their fists and bowed, all seconding the proposal.

Gradually, nearly ninety percent of the officials stood up.

Finally, see you in the picture.

Lou Youzhi chuckled, turned around and clenched his fists: "The minister Lou has knowledge, and he is willing to invite himself as a relief envoy and immediately go to Yongzhou for disaster relief!" ”

Little by little, time passed.

Eventually, the pressure dissipated.

"Okay, okay, okay."

I couldn't hear the voice of joy and anger coming from behind the curtain, "How can I make hundreds of civil and military officials work together?" ”

"This is really a blessing of great celebration."

"I'm going to play it."

……

……

Binzhou Province Rim.

Xu Chong looked at Xue Rong not far away, his face was extremely solemn.

Xue Rong is still the same Xue Rong, but whether it is his eyes, temperament, or demeanor, there have been earth-shaking changes.

"Father, mother?!"

Xue Rong sat on the ground, crying and looking around, "Where is this!" Rong'er is going home! Rong'er don't be here! ”

“……”

Xu Chong hesitated for a moment, relieved his greed for light, and revealed his figure.

When he landed, Xue Rong stopped crying, got up from the ground, pointed at Xu Chong and said: "That cheap servant, Young Master Ben ordered you to send Young Master Ben home quickly, if you are a little late, I will pick your skin!" ”

It seems that it was really forgotten.

Xu Chong's heart fell to the bottom.

Obviously, Xue Rong was cut off and forgot everything related to martial arts.

And if nothing else, Xue Rong should have inherited his father's noble status and started to contact martial arts from a very young age.

That's why there is a situation where memories have completely degraded back to childhood.

But the question is......

It's only been less than 20 days!

Doesn't it mean that it can be delayed for at least a month???

Beijing, what the hell is going on?!

"Damn shit, can't you hear Young Master Ben?"

Xue Rong was arrogant, walked in front of Xu Chong, and raised his hand to fan it.

Xu Chong grabbed Xue Rong's wrist, "Since that's the case, it won't be useful to keep you." ”

In the next moment, Xue Rong's head separated.

A moment later, more than a dozen spiritual sources flew in and submerged into Xu Chong's body.

"Sure enough, it's a matter of natural disasters."

Xu Chong's eyes narrowed.

Within Yongzhou, no one who died could provide him with a spiritual source.

As long as you get out of Yongzhou, on the edge of Binzhou, you will not be affected immediately.

This natural disaster is really evil.

Xu Chong shook his head and devoured Xue Rong with his phaseless clothes, creating a new false appearance.

It didn't take long.

Xu Chong's disguised Xue Rong, dressed in golden armor, appeared at a post station hundreds of miles away.

"You were the one you used to do last time?"

Yi Cheng was alarmed, trotted out, and laughed at Lao Yuan, "Dare to ask your lord to come, but there is still a letter to send?" ”

"No letterheads."

Xu Chong shook his head, "Let me inquire if something has happened in the capital over there for a while." ”

"Beijing?"

Yi Cheng thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Except for disaster relief, nothing special happened. ”

"Disaster relief?"

Xu Chong raised his eyebrows sharply, "Let's be specific." ”

"Hey, it's not the Yongzhou thing next door."

Yi Cheng sighed, "Hundreds of officials write every day, asking Your Majesty for disaster relief, but the granaries in various provinces and places were destroyed, and the imperial court couldn't raise so much food for a while, so it kept dragging it out, as if it was seven days ago, and finally scraped together enough food, and was ready for disaster relief." ”

“……”

Xu Chong was silent for a while.

There's definitely something strange about this.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if the granaries of the provinces and regions are destroyed?

With the background of the royal family, I really want to provide disaster relief, and I will make it up for you in minutes.

It's just that I don't want to provide disaster relief.

The point is, it's been delaying for so long, but you're going to give up here?

After thinking about it, Xu Chong asked again: "This thing is a bit sudden, do you know the specific situation?" ”

"There is some news, but I don't know if it's accurate, after all, it's all passed on by word of mouth."

Yi Cheng paused as he spoke, and lowered his voice, "It is said that the prime minister of Lou invited himself to be a relief envoy. ”

"Huh?"

Xu Chong raised his eyebrows violently, "Lou has knowledge, and he invited himself to be a relief envoy?" ”

What is the difference between this and what Jiang Zhihong did, isn't it all against Emperor Qing?

"This matter, Xia Guan only dares to guess that...... It should be true. ”

Yi Cheng reaffirmed, "It is said that someone secretly asked people to go to various places to collect donations, gather food, and then hundreds of officials wrote together." ”

"Hundreds of officials go to the book together......"

Xu Chong suddenly realized.

Obviously, this is the 'other method' that Dou Tianyuan said.

I have to say, it's really rigid.

Xu Chong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Let me think about ......"

Yi Cheng frowned and pondered.

Although the person in front of him can be sent out to deliver the letter, he must also be a pawn in the Golden Armor Futu, but after all, it is the Golden Armor Futu, not to mention the stammer, it is good not to offend.

"There it is."

Yicheng's eyes lit up, and he lowered his voice: "According to the postman a few days ago......"

A gossip lace news is not nutritious at all.

Xu Chong listened for a while and then left directly.

It's a pity that it's not dark yet, so he can only use Xue Rong's war horse to hurry, far less fast than the Yin God.

"I don't know what's going on over there."

Xu Chong thought so.

He wasn't worried about whether the people over there were still alive.

He wanted to see if the red halo of the calamity represented by those refugees had decreased.

If it is reduced, it means that Lou Youzhi can save these refugees.

If you can't......

……

……

Fenggu County.

In front of the porridge shed, there was a long queue.

Everyone obeyed it honestly, and there was not enough manpower to maintain the order.

Zhao Liu's family and Li Xiangxue are also among them.

"Xiang Xue, how do I feel that you are getting whiter and whiter."

Zhao Liu looked at Li Xiangxue with a puzzled look in his eyes, "The mud can't stop ......"

In the past few months since he fled to Fengdrum, it can be said that Li Xiangxue did not let him worry about it.

One is not to cause trouble, and the other is not to run around.

Not at all like a child who is less than ten years old.

Especially after Jiang Zhihong began to teach martial arts, Li Xiangxue seemed to be a completely different person.

Shut himself up in a simple shack all day long, and don't go anywhere except to get food.

Zhao Liudu almost suspected that something was wrong with Li Xiangxue.

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhao, Xiang Xue is fine."

Li Xiangxue showed a shallow smile at Zhao Liu.

All of his exposed skin, including his face, neck, and wrists, was as white and crystal as jade.

If Xu Chong is here, he can see at a glance that this is caused by the inability to suppress the strength and let the strength flow on the surface of the body.

Yes.

Li Xiangxue also embarked on martial arts.

And the exercises he practiced were not any of the ones taught by Jiang Zhihong.

It's Ming Yujin.

At the beginning, the full set of Ming Yujin that Xu Chong exchanged was for Li Xiangxue.

Originally, Xu Chong thought that if Li Xiangxue wanted to get in touch with martial arts, it would be at least more than ten years later.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhihong's martial arts awakened Li Xiangxue's memory of Ming Yujin!

As for the realm.

Sixfold enlightenment.

In less than two months, the enlightenment is sixfold.

It's a pity that Li Xiangxue didn't dare to tell anyone, and he didn't even dare to say that he had embarked on martial arts.

Because, combined with everything that happened in Canglong County at that time, the little Li Xiangxue could already guess a lot of things.

For example, my father's death is related to martial arts.

For example, Xu Chong has secrets.

Therefore, Li Xiangxue was afraid that Xu Chong would be affected, so he could only pretend to be an ordinary teenager.

Even if he didn't need to eat so much food, he still chose to receive the same amount.

'When you grow up, you must repay Lord Xu's kindness, remember? ’。

In Li Xiangxue's mind, the advice of his father and mother echoed again.

"It's our turn."

Zhao Liu touched Li Xiangxue's shoulder and motioned for him to step forward.

"Oh, good."

Li Xiangxue came back to his senses.

However, just as he was about to take a step forward, a violent bright light suddenly shrouded him, stabbing everyone from opening their eyes.

It took a long time for the glare to subside somewhat.

Everyone looked up in amazement, and was suddenly shocked.

"What's that?!"

"Am I dazzled? How do I see ...... There is an extra sun in the sky??? ”

"I saw it too!"

"What's going on......"

Screams came and went.

The next moment, an ethereal, incomparably grand voice slowly swayed above the county seat.

"You don't need to panic, I am the master of the Taiping Dao."

"—Ji Qingzhi's !!"
