Chapter 52: The Great Drought Spreads!

"Your Majesty, there's something going on at the city gate!" As soon as he entered the main hall, Zhang Yuan bowed and hurriedly spoke.

"What?"

Ji Xuan raised his eyebrows, and his eyes turned cold in vain.

At present, the Imperial City can almost be said to be starting from scratch, and if anyone dares to find trouble, it is like touching his scales.

"It's King Pingxuan, he's back and wants to enter the city!" Zhang Yuan's eyes were full of murderous energy,

As soon as I received the news, I wanted to go out and destroy this guy.

But after thinking about it, after all, this guy is the brother of His Majesty, and he also has the identity of the royal family......

"He's killed, Wu Ju, you bring some people to deal with this matter!"

When Ji Xuan heard that it was King Pingxuan, he blurted out directly without any thought.

This guy once wanted to use Father Yu Shi to claim the emperor, so what did he do if he was so rebellious?

As for him being the royal family of the Great Zhou?

Hehe, although Ji Xuan has become the king of Youwang at the moment, he has never regarded himself as a descendant of the royal family in his bones!

"Yes, Your Majesty, the last general will do it!"

Hearing this, Wu Ju nodded heavily, and then withdrew from the main hall.

He was also indignant, he couldn't look for you earlier, but now he took the initiative to send it to the door, how can he make you feel better!

"Your Majesty, there is still something on the slave's side!"

Seeing Wu Ju leave the hall, Zhang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and bowed again.

"Huh?"

Ji Xuan signaled that Zhang Yuan didn't have to stick to these etiquettes anymore, and had something to say.

"Your Majesty, today the old slave is running errands in the city, and by chance he has met a lot of people, many of them are good at farming, saying that the crops outside the city have reached the point of running out of oil and drying up, and if it doesn't rain again, the harvest may be out this year!"

"The matter of crops?" Ji Xuan pinched his eyebrows.

In recent days, the weather in the Imperial City can be said to be good, and the sun is shining brightly every day, but this is simply fatal for the crops that have become.

If other things are easy to do, but the weather is beyond the reach of people.

"So, tomorrow you gather some crops, and go to the fields with them to see if there is any other solution!"

After thinking for a long time, Ji Xuan spoke.

Other things can be delayed, but the crop thing really can't be delayed.

"By the way, Zhang Yuan, the captain sent back the news, saying that they have received Uncle Kong Fang's family and are on their way to the imperial city, after Uncle Kong Fang enters the city, be sure to make proper arrangements!"

Then, Ji Xuan thought of something again and spoke again.

"Your Majesty, where is the proper arrangement of this Uncle Kong Fang?"

Zhang Yuan thought about it and spoke again.

The 10,000 people who entered Beijing this time have all been arranged into the previous houses one by one according to the plan, but Uncle Kong Fang is a top talent and cannot be treated like this.

"He's arranged in the former Xuanwang Mansion!"

Ji Xuan turned around and spoke directly.

For Confucius's great-grandfather, he is really looking forward to it!

"Yes, Your Majesty, the old minister will take care of the Xuanwang Mansion again and let Uncle Kong Fang's family settle in!"

.......

After a stick of incense, Wu Ju came to the city gate with a large group of people, and at this time, the men and horses of Xuanwangfu were still facing off against the guards guarding the city.

"Lord Commander, all the people of the Xuanwang Mansion will enter the city......"

Seeing his boss coming, the captain of the city guard hurriedly bowed and bowed.

"Haha, it turned out to be the new Janissary Commander Lord Wu, the old man had admired the name for a long time, but he had never seen it.... If you have time, you will have a good conversation with Master Wu......"

When the housekeeper of Xuanwang's Mansion saw the person in charge, his face changed, and he smiled and spoke.

"How old are you?"

It's a pity that as soon as Wu Ju opened his mouth, he scared the housekeeper half to death.

In the carriage, King Pingxuan couldn't sit still anymore, and directly lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.

"What do you say? Say it again!"

In his eyes, there was nothing but unbelief or disbelief.

He is the younger brother of the Great Zhou royal family and the king of You.......

"My Majesty said, kill!"

In the blink of an eye, Wu Ju had already burst out of the momentum of an eighth-level martial artist, and directly killed King Pingxuan!

.......

The strength of the two sides is not at the same level at all, and in less than a stick of incense, all the teams of Xuanwangfu were wiped out, and none of them survived.

"Clear!"

Wu Ju was unmoved, and after giving the order, he returned to the city with everyone.

As everyone knows, when Wu Ju killed King Pingxuan, there was a sound of excitement on an extremely mysterious mountain.

"The bloodline of the Great Zhou Dynasty has died again, and now there is only one Youwang left, and when he dies, it will be the beginning of the second canonization!"

The sound came out, and it was quickly drowned out by the wind, as if it had never been seen before.

The words were divided into two sides, and when Ji Xuan encountered another difficult thing, Yu Shifu and Shen Hou, who wanted to trap Ji Xuan, couldn't laugh at the moment.

When he arrived in Longxi City and arranged everything properly, Yu Shi's father received a report from his subordinates.

It is said that there has been no rain here for a month, and the nearby fertile fields have dried up severely, and if they are not treated, the harvest will be completely lost.

In this way, Father Yu Shi was completely dumbfounded,

Originally, I planned to hold a grand enthronement ceremony after arriving in Longxi City.

In this way, it can only be pushed back slightly.

The most important thing is that a few days ago, he was still laughing at Ji Xuan, saying that after the grain harvest failed, he could trap the entire imperial city, but he didn't think that he had encountered such a problem.

It's a real slap in the face!

"Your Majesty, if you feel that the weather is very dry, you can ask the wizard to do it and pray for rain in the heavens, so ......"

Soon, a group of strategists came up with a solution.

"In that case, pray for rain from above!"

In the end, Father Yu had no other way but to agree with the opinions of the strategists.

Is there any other way to do this? Not really.

......

Qingcheng, the lord of a mansion, Shen Hou's face was cloudy, and his brows did not stretch for a long time.

"There is not a single place where it rains for hundreds of miles?"

"Your Majesty, the minister has already checked, from twenty miles east of the Imperial City of the Great Zhou Dynasty to my Qingcheng, there has been no rainfall, and even some small rivers have dried up, and the fish and shrimp are dead!"

A Wenchen's face was full of sorrow.

He was originally a courtier of the Great Zhou, and this time he followed Shen Hou to Qingcheng to establish a country, thinking that he could live a good life, but he didn't expect to encounter a big problem in a blink of an eye.

At present, the garrison of 200,000 has gone to the place of twenty miles of the imperial city of the Great Zhou Dynasty to build a pass.

However, the amount of grain and grass consumed by the army every day is an astronomical amount, and if the grain is not harvested again, it is estimated that it is not only the Great Zhou Imperial City but also them!

"How about the Inurong Kingdom in the east?"

Shen Hou got up, his face full of irritability.

"Your Majesty, the most recent rainfall in the Inurong Kingdom was twenty days ago, if this situation continues to develop, the situation is not optimistic!"

The minister sighed.

All kinds of signs show that this drought is very likely to occur once in a thousand years, and no one may be able to escape.

"How long can we hold on to the food in our hands?"

"Half a year!"

"So little?"

Shen Hou clenched his fists,

A lot of grain and grass were left in the imperial city and not brought out, and now it seems that it is really a big mistake.

"Your Majesty, at the moment, you may only be able to withdraw the army, reduce the consumption of grain and grass, and then go to the Great Zhou Dynasty to establish a pass when the sky rains......."

After a long time, this Wenchen finally spoke cautiously.

He knew that Shen Hou would definitely be unhappy if he said this, but there was no way to do it!
