Chapter 238: But I want to return to the mountain

After several months of reconstruction and repair, Yongle City and the palace after the relocation of the capital almost restored the basic appearance, note that it is the basic appearance, to restore the former prosperity and prosperity, it is basically impossible, at least three or four years.

Preliminary calculations and management, the civil and military ministers in the court are basically dead and fleeing, and there are only three or four civil officials available, as for the military attachΓ©s, there will be more, after all, since ancient times, military attachΓ©s are physically and mentally, and their ability to resist attacks is stronger than that of civilian officials, because they have not retreated from their posts, Xiao Jinan is now undoubtedly a loyal minister in the eyes of Xiao Chenggang, and it goes without saying that they are all surnamed Xiao, but it can also be said that they were a family five hundred years ago.

At this moment, Xiao Chenggang and Xiao Jinan stood side by side in front of the Jinluan Palace, their eyes staring at the central axis of the palace, Xiao Chenggang sighed and said, "Do you say that it is my fault this time, if it weren't for my Emperor Yuan, I wouldn't have controlled my Great Chu Dynasty for five years, maybe the teacher wouldn't have died, and even very likely, today's incident would not have happened." ”

Xiao Jinan first made a courtesy, and then said, "Your Majesty, don't take all the responsibility on yourself, Emperor Yuan's goal is to open the gate of heaven and go home, and the seizure of my Great Chu power is just to facilitate the operation of his overall plan, in other words, whether he sneaked into the palace or not, the battle of the barren mountains is inevitable." ”

"I'm really relieved to hear you say that. Xiao Chenggang said with a bit of self-comfort.

"I'm just telling the facts. Xiao Jinan said from the bottom of his heart, "Your Majesty, after you learned of Emperor Yuan's conspiracy, you led the soldiers and horses to the barren mountains to block his conspiracy, which can be described as a heavenly style, so why bother to say something to blame yourself." ”

Xiao Jinan smiled, he smiled very sincerely, and he didn't smile at all like the Ninety-Five Supreme, but he was more like an ordinary person, "Actually, I'm wrong, it's just that you don't say it, but I know very well in my heart where I am wrong, but there is a difference between what others say and what I realize." ”

"I ......" Xiao Jinan wanted to speak but stopped.

Xiao Chenggang continued, "Do you know what is the most difficult thing about being an emperor, the most difficult thing is that the people around you are picking up and saying good things about you, and they don't dare to say anything bad about you at all, so it's actually very tiring. ”

Xiao Jinan choked up, "I...... I'm telling the truth. ”

"But you only said good facts, not bad facts!" Xiao Chenggang's face became more and more sincere, and he lost the temperament of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, and became friendly and easy, "I know that you are absolutely loyal to Da Chu, and I hope you can also say my mistakes without reservation in the future, after all, I am now the time to employ people." ”

Xiao Jinan only said that Xiao Chenggang was good, in fact, it was largely related to his previous career experience, in addition to not being transferred to Tai'an City as a county official, he was a local official, and he had never seen Shengyan at all, and now he can stand side by side with Xiao Chenggang and inevitably feel nervous, just this kind of small psychology that normal people will have, and it has nothing to do with flattery and the like.

Xiao Chenggang's eyes lit up and said, "Xiao Aiqing, you and I are both surnamed Xiao, and we have been one family for five hundred years, don't be in the way of talking because of the monarch and ministers, after all, I still want you to be the prime minister of my Dachu!"

"What...... Do...... Be the prime minister of Da Chu?" Xiao Jinan was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and suddenly his feet were unstable and his body leaned out, realizing the gaffe, he adjusted his expression and psychology and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, Weichen...... Wechen is rude, I really can't imagine that one day it will be ...... I don't think I have that ability, so Your Majesty, you'd better think about it!"

"Consider?" Xiao Chenggang said in a rhetorical tone, "There is nothing to consider, you should know the two prime ministers I appointed before, Wu Wenyang and Li Yuanheng, Li Yuanheng is very unfortunate, when the aftermath spreads, he was crushed to death by the collapsed house, and that Wu Wenyang was very excessive, and fled without a trace, Jinan, now I want to restore the country and system of Dachu, I need a capable person to assist me, I hope you can take over the post of prime minister." ”

"I ...... I ......" Xiao Jinan stammered, "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to, I'm afraid that I'm not capable enough!"

"There is no ability that is not enough, as long as you are willing, as long as you have the heart, you will definitely be able to do it well. ”

At this moment, a voice that had never appeared before appeared in his ears, Huang Zhiku, changed his usual clothes, changed into a simple mountain people's clothes, came to Xiao Chenggang and knelt down and said, "Minister Huang Zhiku, please see Your Majesty." ”

"It turned out to be a bitter one!" Xiao Chenggang knew that when the Barren Mountain War touched the ground line and was likely to endanger the Great Chu Dragon Vein, it was Huang Zhiku who rushed all the way to protect the vein, so his attitude towards him was naturally excellent, and he helped him up with a smile and said, "Knowing the bitterness, I see that you came to the palace all the way, what, you have something to tell me!"

"Yes. Huang Zhibitter nodded and stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid I have to leave, now that the senior brother is gone, my little junior brother has lost all his cultivation, the Maoshan faction can be said to be in a mess, after all, I came out of the Maoshan faction, and now the Maoshan faction is in trouble, I can't help but go back, so please let Your Majesty allow me to go back to the mountain." ”

Huang Zhiku's role in the DPRK is actually very subtle, not the same as civil and military officials, and the series of positions he holds are also very special, it can be said that he can't find a second person to replace him, and it is impossible for Xiao Chenggang to let him go in normal times, not to mention that now, in order to restore the economy and people's livelihood of Dachu as soon as possible, what is needed is a talent like Huang Zhiku.

Shaking his head, Xiao Jinan said, "Knowing the hardship, now I am the time to employ people, if you want to leave at this time, I really can't promise you!"

"But...... But Your Majesty, the Maoshan faction is in chaos now, someone must come forward to clean up the mess, besides, we need to quickly establish a team composed of the Xiuxian sect in the world, and now the Six Dao Courtyard and the Rotten Sword Mountain have suffered heavy losses, but it can be said that the one who has preserved most of its strength is the Maoshan faction, and I have to go back. ”

"Establish a team of immortal cultivators?

Huang Zhiku's face was solemn and serious, "Your Majesty, you are mostly from the political affairs of the country, and you may not know some other situations, for example, in the margins and cracks of the human realm, there are demon realms and ghost realms, they don't want to occupy the human world all the time, this time the immortal cultivation sect is undoubtedly a good opportunity to suffer a catastrophe of annihilation, and if they really seize this opportunity to attack the human world, the ordinary army will not be able to resist it at all." ”

"Demon Realm! and Ghost Realm, occupy the world!" Xiao Chenggang is the emperor, but he is also an ordinary mortal, what he sees in his eyes is only the crisis that some surrounding ethnic groups may bring to Dachu, and he didn't think about the three realms of demons and demons at all, he suddenly changed his mind and said, "Know the bitterness, since this is the case, you should hurry back to the mountain."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After thanking him, Huang Zhiku turned around again, and actually held Xiao Jinan's hand very kindly, and said with a bit of lover's affection, "Brother Xiao, now Da Chu needs to get out of the aftermath of the catastrophe as soon as possible, and Your Majesty is also employing people, so no matter what Your Majesty asks you to do, I hope you can do it realistically and help Your Majesty restore everything about Da Chu!"

"I ......" Xiao Jinan's eyes swirled between Huang Zhiku and Xiao Chenggang, and said, "Okay, please rest assured, Your Majesty, Mr. Huang, please rest assured, I will definitely do my best for the Great Chu River." ”

Xiao Chenggang's eyes were blazing, but he was speechless!

Huang Zhiku bowed again and turned to leave.

Xiao Jinan's eyes, at the moment when Huang Zhiku left, became solemn, he turned around and knelt in front of Xiao Chenggang and said, "Your Majesty, the minister must do his best, and then die!"

"Xiao Aiqing, please, it seems that you have already figured out how to be my prime minister of Dachu. ”

Xiao Jinan still didn't have a lot of spectrum in his heart, after all, he was only a small county official before, so he didn't say anything to answer, just nodded, and said, "Your Majesty, if it is really as Mr. Huang said, the ghost world and the demon world also covet the territory of the human world, now it is not enough to rely on the Maoshan faction alone." ”

Xiao Chenggang who he said didn't think about it, now it seems that the Three Realms of Demons and Demons did not attack the human world before, the main reason is that there are the immortal cultivation sects of the Rotten Sword Maoshan Six Dao Academy, and now the three factions are all tilted, and there is indeed no capital that can resist them, if you want to say that the Maoshan faction alone is like this, it is only because among the three factions, the Maoshan faction has the smallest loss, like the Six Dao Courtyard, almost all the doors were destroyed, and only Wang Yan survived and cultivated to be completely lost.

"That's right, we need to form an army with cultivation skills!" This is the only method that Xiao Chenggang can think of, other than that, there is no other plan, and the special army he is talking about at the moment is essentially different from the previous Yun Zhongwei, Yun Zhongwei has always been underground before, more like serving a secret matter, this time, he is going to establish a very regular army.

......

Standing at the head of the Ten Thousand Ghost City, the conversation between King Chu Jiang and Aye Moro continued.

In the face of Ayemoro's question, King Chu Jiang replied truthfully, "The one who led the soldiers and horses of the Demon Realm, according to the information found, it was not the Demon Venerable Yun E, but his son Yun Li. ”

Ayemoro frowned and said, "Is it only Yunli?"

"According to reliable sources, there is also Bai Ke, one of the two saints of the Demon Realm. ”

Ayemoro didn't say anything more, he fell into deep thought, he sorted out many questions and possible reasons in his mind, if the Demon Realm really intends to take down the Ghost Realm, it should be the Demon Venerable Yun'e who personally leads the troops, what does it mean to send a stinky son to come, look down on us?

No!

Aye Moro denied this stupid speculation and entered a new thinking and reasoning, if the Demon Venerable Yun Doom does not come, there must be more important things to do, is it ......?

Ayemoro's face changed and he said, "Could it be that the Demon Realm has sent troops to both sides, and Yun Er has led the army to attack the Demon Realm!"
