Li Junxian continued: "Your Majesty, my subordinates don't know, but according to the intelligence, it doesn't seem that the Great Yan Army is going to move south, but it just says that Chen Bing is at the border, as if he is defending something. ”

"On the contrary, the Turks are preparing to move, but they also seem to be afraid of something, and they have not made any next move."

As soon as this statement came out.

Li Shimin was stunned.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Li Jing all looked at each other blankly.

There was silence.

Fang Xuanling let out a sigh and said slowly: "Your Majesty, perhaps, this time Dayan is to defend the people of the Tang Dynasty from entering their borders. ”

"The minister thought, it should be for this reason."

"It is estimated that Emperor Dayan also knew that what he did last year was not authentic, so he didn't dare to do it again this year, so he first expressed his intentions and showed favor to Your Majesty."

"After all, during this time, Da Yan has been sending books to Datang, and if they want to go south, they will definitely cut off the supply of books a long time ago."

"Coupled with the tens of millions of things before, which caused Da Yan to be embattled, they didn't dare to move."

Fang Xuanling's voice fell, and everyone's eyes trembled.

It seems, it makes sense!

After thinking for a moment, Li Shimin also nodded: "Indeed, Xuanling, what you said makes sense, after all, everyone has cheated so much money in our Datang and other countries this year, and they got so many benefits last year." ”

"He got too much, and he couldn't digest it, this year....I don't think I want to completely tear my face with Datang, he is a big Yan, I guess he doesn't have the courage."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Li Shimin kept nodding as he spoke.

It seems to have convinced himself.

Du Ruhui and Li Jing thought about it.

Indeed....such an explanation makes the most sense!

This juncture is on the bone.

Although Datang is sad, but! If it really fights, will Da Yan be an opponent?

No way!

How big is the Great Yan? How big is Datang?

This is just a disaster in two states, you know, Datang has ten states in the world!!

"Okay, no matter what happened to the Great Flame, what happened to the Turkic side."

Li Shimin couldn't help but ask.

Li Shimin didn't expect it at this moment, and maybe everyone present didn't think of it.

Da Yan's size was so much smaller than that of the Turks, but the first thing they wanted to know was Da Yan's movements.

And they are still obsessed with what the big hot land is small enough to be afraid of.

The first one to mention the great flame is enough to show how much they attach importance to it!

It's just that Da Yan has risen too fast and progressed too fast, which is a little intolerable and even unacceptable.

It's human nature.

It's like your neighbor, who has always been poor, and suddenly one day wins millions in the lottery and becomes a nouveau riche, you will not be able to believe it, or even believe it.

When they are sure that this is true, they will criticize him for being a nouveau riche, stepping on dog shit and other jealous remarks, except that the saint will not congratulate him, this is all human nature.

And right now, Da Yan.....is the nouveau riche!

"Back to Your Majesty, although the Turks are powerful, according to the judgment of the Chai Dadu Governor, the Turks will not invade our Tang Dynasty on a large scale, and this is not their battle for the Weishui raid!"

"In addition, if the Weishui raid is really repeated, Da Yan has a grudge against the Turks, and Da Yan may even backstab!"

"So the Governor of Chai reassures us that Qingzhou....is absolutely safe!"

Li Junxian's words were conclusive.

And hearing that it was Chai Shao's judgment, Li Shimin was completely relieved.

"I see, that's a good thing."

"Then leave them alone, the top priority is to quickly think of a way to appease the people and the impending homeless!"

Li Shimin said, turned around and walked towards the Taiji Palace.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others hurriedly followed.

.

….….….…….….

Youzhou.

The locust plague has been going on for days.

Chidi Qianli.

There is no harvest of pellets.

All that was left of the crops in the fields was jagged dry weeds, and as for the fruit, there was nothing left.

The locust plague is too severe.

So that the entire Qingzhou almost suffered a catastrophe.

In every village, every county and town, and even Taiyuan Prefecture, hundreds of people have begun to pack up their things, and the tide of displaced people is being nurtured.

Pu County.

This is the most populous county in Qingzhou.

Last year.

Because of its proximity to Chang'an City, coupled with the small size of the locust plague, it can be said that there are very few people who have lost it.

But.

Now, as the first county and town they arrived after the locust plague crossed Chang'an, the situation is extremely bad.

In the village, there is a lot of mourning.

In the county, a withered one,

The people have lost their old lives, and everyone's faces show anxiety and confusion about the future.

After so many days, the government has not said anything, nor has there been any sign of opening a position, and there seems to be bad news from Chang'an.

The imperial court did not have disaster relief food.

All of them are playing dead, and only the people of Qingzhou are starving here.

Puxian Street, in front of the grain store with the door closed.

Many people were squatting in the corners, their eyes red.

They had nowhere to go.

Can only be here, waiting for the grain shop to open.

But

Since the day before the locust plague began, all the grain shops in the county town have been closed.

Even if you have a little silver in your hand, you can't buy a grain of rice at all.

Of course

Most of the people have no food or silver.

"How many days have it been, why hasn't the court issued a notice? Our Puxian County is close to Chang'an, but we haven't received any news. ”

"The imperial court....hehe, I'm afraid the imperial court will give up on us, right? They don't have any food, and the food is still in the hands of the Shi clan, the same as last year! ”

"Grandma, Lao Tzu shouldn't have listened to the rumors of the court last year, he should have gone to Dayan!!"

"Yes, this is the worst choice I've ever made in my life! Didn't go to the Great Flame! Otherwise, we will also plant Dayan No. 1, and when the potatoes can be planted next year, we will still worry about eating and drinking in this life? ”

"Brothers, let's go to Dayan, I see, the imperial court won't care about us, even if we go to be refugees, escape the famine, and go to Chang'an, what can we do? Even if you are lucky enough not to starve to death, but if you keep going like this, you can't see the end at all. ”

"However, my ancestors have lived in Puxian for generations, hey, it's just that, they're about to starve to death, it's me who has embarrassed my ancestors, so I'll go to Dayan too."

“…….”

Many people shouted.

Here, there is some confusion.

It's a little noisy.

It has also become a quiet Pu County, a slightly popular place.

For so many days, the entire Pu County was about to die.

Because they were hungry, they stopped talking.

It was at this time.

On the quiet street, I suddenly remembered the shouting.

"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers!"

"The latest issue of the Dayan Weekly, a copy only costs a penny, and you can't even buy a grain of rice for a penny, but it can provide you with a good place to go!"

"Sell newspapers and sell newspapers, the latest issue of Dayan Weekly, the Dayan Imperial Court has written a letter to our people, take a look, read it!"

"Dayan Dayan, the latest news of Dayan, we ordinary people have to take a look, Dayan Imperial Court has always been concerned about our Qingzhou!"

“…….”

The vendors who sold them one by one went to the streets again.

This time it's above board, not as sneaky as before.

Because.

Li Shimin forbade Qingzhou from selling the Dayan Weekly, so for a period of time, the task of selling was done in private.

And now.

There is no other reason, because those patrols and arresters in Pu County are also hungry and have no strength.

I can't live anymore, who cares about the tasks of the court?

"Great Yan Weekly? Come here, give me a copy! ”

"I want it too!"

“…….”

When they heard such a shout, the people who were squatting at the base of the wall with hunger in their bellies, cloudy and a little blue, showed their eyes that shone with hunger. Suddenly there was a glimmer of hope.

They never thought that the Tang Dynasty didn't think about them, but the Dayan Court thought about themselves.

Moreover, it's only a penny!

As this peddler said, in the current Pu County, you can't buy even a grain of rice.!

"Quick, read it to me!"

"What's written on it?"

"That's it, quick! Readers, read it, what did the Great Yan Imperial Court say. ”

“…….”

Many illiterate people surrounded the people who bought newspapers.

Suddenly

Puxian actually showed a lot of anger.

The people looked at the newspaper expectantly.

Great Flame!

Great Yan Imperial Court!

At this time.

A commoner, who looked like a private school teacher, stood up and walked to the front.

All of a sudden, he attracted a lot of people.

"Everyone, let me read to you, the officials of the Great Yan Imperial Court, the letter to us."

The man cleared his throat, exclaimed, with all his strength.

"Dear Han compatriots in Qingzhou, I am very sad when I know the disaster that Qingzhou is facing, but because of the willingness of my identity, I cannot directly intervene."

"The Han people of Qingzhou, after decades of turmoil and struggle, finally settled down from the chaos of the last years of the Sui Dynasty. The newly established Tang Dynasty did not bring prosperity and prosperity to the people of Qingzhou and the people of the ten states in the world, on the contrary, it also colluded with the clan lords, tyrannized the people, colluded with the gentry, and wantonly embezzled the land and houses of our people! ”

"More than ten years have passed, and our people in Qingzhou have not seen the light, and they are still living in darkness, struggling on the verge of starvation."

"Last year, I saw the disaster in Youzhou, and I couldn't wait to stand with the people, but! I'm a big fire....after all, it's not right! ”

"But, compatriots, we are compatriots, and when my people saw you working so hard, they all agreed to open the country and do everything they could to help you!"

"After the locust plague last year, many people stayed in Dayan and became part of Dayan, but! I Da Yan knows that another part of the people of Youzhou stay in Datang, and they are still not peaceful and unstable, and they are very much missing! ”

"Last year, Youzhou was hit by the disaster, but the clan gate valve rarely united, only thinking about their own interests, and never thinking about their compatriots!"

"Causing thousands of miles of displaced people and starving everywhere, but they just raise the price of food and eat the flesh and blood of our compatriots to fill their desires!"

"How many of our compatriots left us last year? Thousand? Ten thousand? Or twenty thousand? It's hard to say, but I believe that all compatriots know it in their hearts! ”

"This time the locust plague is coming again, but for so many days, the court has been doing nothing, and the scholars are competing to raise the price, and they don't put the people in their eyes and keep them in their hearts! I feel even more grieved! ”

"There have been countless tragic things for the people in all dynasties, and we should learn some lessons! History has taught us that our compatriots must be closely united, and Da Yan will always be with you, only in this way can we overcome this disaster! ”

"If we waver in compromise and have illusions about the clan gate, we will suffer an even more painful lesson next, my compatriots! Last year's events have been vividly remembered, this year, do you still want to watch yourself become a homeless, with your wife and children at home, starving to death on the road? ”

"Wake up, compatriots, stop having illusions about the Tang Dynasty, don't have illusions about the clan gate valve anymore!"

"We are all, our Majesty Yang Kuan is the orthodox emperor, and he also has the heirloom jade seal, and my Majesty Dayan is the true destiny of heaven! And I, Your Majesty Dayan, founded the country in Dayan, is to inherit the ambition of Yao Shun and open up the peace of the world for all eternity! ”

"Dayan and Datang are in the same vein in origin, Dayan believes that you all have understanding, here in Dayan, there is a bright future, both belong to us and belong to you!"

"Come back, come back! It has been a long time since you left the Great Flame, and the Great Flame is ours, and this is the sacred mission entrusted by history to our generation! ”

"The times are advancing, the form is developing, all the officials of Dayan believe that after Qingzhou enters Dayan, we will work together to create an unprecedented glorious history of Dayan, and the Datang and Shi clan gate valves will be swept into the trash sooner or later!"

"Long live my compatriots! Long live the people! Great Flame....Hooray!! ”

As the man read the last three sentences, his voice was completely broken.

The voice fell.

Quiet!

Quiescence!

Falling pins can be heard!

Silent!

The entire street of Pu County, as well as the surrounding people, did not have the slightest sound.

They're all stupid!

Da Yan....Da Yan has been thinking about them?

Thinking of them?

Oh, yes!

Compatriot!

Everyone is Han Chinese, not of a different race, but of their compatriots!!

Leaving aside the difference between the Datang Building, they are actually the same!

Finally.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly someone suddenly roared: "Da Yan....Da Yan!" The official of Dayan is right, if you are with them, if you don't say anything else in the future, you will definitely not go hungry! ”

"Definitely not!"

"Long live the Great Yan, long live Your Majesty!"

The voice came out.

The entire Puxian Street exploded in an instant.

Countless people, all boiling.

"Da Yan is waiting for us, Da Yan is over there....it turns out that he has been waiting for us all along!"

"Join the Great Flame! What Da Yan said is right, the Datang and Shi clan gate valves will be pulled down sooner or later!."

"That's right! In that case, we Qingzhou, next door to Datang? It's the same when we join Dayan! Datang doesn't care about us, the Shi clan door valve exploits us, but Dayan is different! ”
