Chapter 324: Family Letter
Now the living conditions of Nanzhan Continent are already very bad, the yellow sand in the northwest, although the south is rich, but the whole is worrying, although the power of the Shadow Sword is huge, but the killing caused is too much, and the place where it is hit by the Shadow Sword next will become a wasteland, until the last moment, the Demon Emperor is naturally unwilling to use it, such an artifact, there are not many of them. Use one less than one. He is also distressed, although it is a useless object if it is not used, but the precious thing, even if it is not used, his heart is comfortable. At least there are more opportunities to choose.
From Jiuding, he can also see the situation in Kyushu, where the disaster is famine, starvation is everywhere, most of the demon clan are skin and bones, white bones, mosquitoes are rampant, the disaster of the demon clan, like the pure land of insects, this scene also sees the demon emperor heartbroken, if the country is like this, even if it is forever, what is the use, after not being the demon emperor, he will close the door and live his own small life, although he does not worry about eating and drinking in the deep palace, but he is shouldering the entire community.
In the past month, he has also continued to send people to inquire about the situation of officials from all sides, most of the officials in Kyoto have eaten the last meal but not the next meal, the soldiers of the army are only full, and those who have stored grain only dare to eat secretly, and dare not publicize it. The whole of Nanzhan Chau is in trouble.
The official can't eat enough, the court tightened his belt, as the demon emperor, his daily expenses are also a lot less, and he has repeatedly asked the internal affairs government to reduce expenses, until three meals a day, a bowl of rice per day, one or two vegetables, born in the palace, this is also the first time he has lived so frugally, but under this frugality, his heart is stable, but every late at night, looking at the cruel appearance of the Jiuding live broadcast of the Great Zhou Empire, he is saddened and finds that he can't change anything.
In just two months after the famine began, the world has been in this situation, and the price of food has been rising steadily, and the people are struggling to make ends meet. Although the court reported good news and not bad news, he could understand the real situation through Jiuding. The deliberate concealment of the hundred officials could not soothe his sorrowful heart.
The land of the three states of the Holy Sect is still unusually abundant, and the feedback of this scene of Jiuding also saw the demon emperor gritting his teeth, and made up his mind to attack the holy state, he wants to send the grain and grass of the three states of the holy state to various places for disaster relief, except for the land of the three states of the holy state, the whole world, is also dependent on the grain stored in the pass, a steady stream of disaster relief, the land of Kyushu, with the food supply of the three states, is far from enough, if the land of the three states of the holy state is attacked, then it can solve the worries of the world, and it can also solve the trouble in his heart. Kill two birds with one stone.
Now all the state herds under his rule have also risen up in droves, and the 300,000 army is like a dark sea in the picture of Jiuding, and there is a steady supply of grain and grass from all over the country.
Of course, there are many bandits and bandits who have swarmed up from all over the country, and there are many desperate behaviors that force the grain truck, but when this kind of thing happens, the demon emperor also directly ordered the incorporation, and the hungry and anxious people can have the courage to rob the grain truck, then it proves that they have the courage.
If you have the courage to fight for your own living space, the demon clan should be given a chance.
Therefore, the grass cowards in the mountains around the country were basically incorporated along the grain road.
The world is in a drought, the people are not able to make a living, can have such a united heart, this is the demon emperor is very pleased to be a place, at the same time the demon emperor also let go of the restrictions of the three states in the Guannai, because the demon emperor from Jiuding, saw a scene that made him feel deeply in crisis, the hungry people in the world, in order to survive regardless of their own life and death, regardless of the life and death of others, Yi Zi and eat, kill demons and eat meat, in order to survive, abandon the courtesy, righteousness and shame, abandon the dignity and demon character accumulated in the past three thousand years, in order to survive, abandon the demon nature, animal nature.
To be able to unite to overthrow the Holy Sect, to be able to unite in order to survive and bravely break through the pass, in order to survive, he can naturally overthrow his Great Zhou Empire, even if he sits on the three states in the Guannei, has abundant soldiers and horses, and although the food is constantly relieved, he can also maintain his own survival, but the will of the demons in the world can fight the Great Zhou Empire to the ground, tear the Great Zhou Empire to pieces, and then there will inevitably be a situation where the warlords will divide the territory and the kings will compete with each other, and what's more, the foreign tribes in the five continents of the Xiangu Continent will invade Nanzhan Continent because of this.
All this is not allowed by him! The Demon Emperor opened up the restrictions of the three states in the Guannei, and if all the exiled demon clans could come to the Guannai, he would open a warehouse for relief, and at noon every day, open a warehouse to release grain, just to win the hearts of the people, and at the same time all the cultivated land in the three states of the Guannai was planted with a large amount of grain, and at the same time heavy troops were guarding the side, and at the same time posting notices, sending people to lobby, and at the same time controlling all the grain stores, and providing disaster relief every day.
It can be said that the entire land of the three states in the Guannai is under control, but in this state, it can only ensure that the demon clan in the three states in the Guannai is not dead, just immortal, and the rest of the places will be eaten up by the bark.
In the eyes of the Demon Emperor, this is a great catastrophe, he wants to follow the example of the previous emperor to issue the edict of guilt, but he stopped under the admonition of the ministers, just because the situation is turbulent now, if the edict is issued to those who have a heart to use, it will cause unknowable turmoil. It is better to wait for the disaster to pass and everything is settled before awarding it. This suggestion was adopted by the ministers, and the Demon Emperor also agreed.
In such a dangerous situation, the Demon Emperor looked at the court, a group of hungry and yellow-faced ministers, and he also sighed infinitely in his heart, this group of people is peaceful and prosperous, and they are pampered and depressed on weekdays, but in troubled times, the yellow muscles are thin, but they are full of energy. I couldn't help but sigh. "There is no hardship that cannot be endured, only happiness that cannot be enjoyed. ”
Above the court, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, half of them are over half a hundred years old Confucian old men, this scene, but also see the demon emperor a little worried, at the same time self-blame in the heart is even worse, but also think of the history books a hundred years later, evaluation today, maybe he will say that he is the worst demon emperor in thousands of years. But he didn't have the energy to think about it anymore.
During the morning meeting, the most asked by the Demon Emperor was when all this would end, but the most said in the Manchu Dynasty was that His Majesty would be safe and sound. Both sides seem to be so tacit, calm and calm, the undercurrent of Nan Zhanzhou, moving and still, can't tell who is the chess piece and who is the chess player, but one thing is certain, there are many spectators and a lot of people. But apart from fate, no one can predict what will happen next. Everything seems to go according to the original plan, step by step. Destroy the Holy Sect, or start an arduous tug-of-war, and finally destroy the Holy Sect. Or the collapse of the Great Zhou Empire, the Holy Sect still exists, becoming the master behind the next dynasty.
The final decisive battle, all intrigue in absolute power, seems to have lost its effect.
