The nights in Hedong are a bit colder than in other places. Li Xu stood in the inner garden of the Hedong Jiedu Envoy Office, thinking about what he had done in the past two years, what he had done wrong, and what he had missed.

When I came to this world, what changes did I make to this world, and how did this world resist me?

There are a lot of things that can't be explained.

The emperor held three letters from Bai Yujing in his hand, one from the king of Shu, one from Li Deyu and one from Li Shen.

These three letters are all about one thing, and the poor people liberated by Han Qian have already caused an uproar.

Li Xu felt quite painful in his heart, just in Bai Yujing, right under his nose, such things have been happening all the time, and how many similar episodes are being staged in this corner of the world that he can't see?

Along the way, the emperor has been crushing all obstacles in front of him with a pair of iron fists, but in the end, there are things that are not enough with a pair of iron fists.

It is impossible to change this world of forcing good people to become prostitutes by relying only on fists.

Li Deyu's letter said that although many Dayu people who had been reduced to slavery were rescued, the Hu merchants took the IOUs of these people and even the IOUs of the imperial court to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion to make trouble.

They said that since the court had taken people away, it was only right to ask the court to pay back the money, and to repay the debts.

Since these Hu businessmen jumped so much, Li Deyu naturally satisfied them, and directly called the men and horses from Li Shen to mention the prison envoys, and one of them was all massaged and the remnants of the nuns were caught in the prison for introspection.

However, Li Shen's letter also said that it is expected that the imperial court will continue to borrow money this year, and I am afraid that it will encounter the backlash of these Hu businessmen, and the financial expenditure in all aspects will be tighter after the beginning of the spring.

Now more than 2,000 people live on the relief of Jingzhao Mansion for food and life, and the vast majority of them have given up hope of living, and many people sincerely feel that becoming slaves and maids may be a way out.

Saving the emergency is not helping the poor, Li Deyu also hopes that the emperor can instruct these people what to do in the future?

Today, there are only 2,000 people to deal with in front of the emperor and Li Deyu, and the emperor and Jingzhao Mansion have 10,000 ways to solve all this easily.

They were directly recruited into the army as miscellaneous servants, or arranged in the pastures of the imperial court, or distributed cattle seeds to the frontier as immigrants to enrich the population there.

However, looking at the world, there are more than 2,000 people in need of help. Now the two thousand people in Bai Yujing can be rescued by the imperial court, but what about the countless two thousand people in the world?

The Emperor was depressed, and in the face of such a world, he began to think about how much he could change what he had done.

Naturally, he is far worse than that great man, and that great man is still like this, let alone himself?

The letter of the King of Shu also said about this matter, but this child can be said to be honest or cunning, and he said in the letter that Bai Yujing was changing.

In the past year or so, the emperor's suppression of Hu Shang in the Western Regions has caused a chain reaction, and there have gradually been voices of opposition among Bai Yujing's upper echelons.

They were economically connected to the Hu merchants, and they relied on them for many of their luxury supplies, and the emperor's blow to the Hu merchants had affected the lives of the top figures in Dayu.

In the letter, the young king of Shu reminded his brother that perhaps he should consider and take care of this emotion.

Of course, at the end of this letter, the king of Shu also expressed a request to the emperor, hoping that the emperor could arrange a teacher to teach him martial arts.

The King of Shu's requests and reminders were reasonable, and he was careful not to stimulate the emperor, but the heavy reality made Li Xu suddenly a little uninterested.

Benevolence loves people, and seeing the suffering of others, Li Xu can also feel the desperate pain of the people.

In the middle of the mood, a gray crane landed on an old pine in the inner garden of the Hedong Jiedu Envoy.

The emperor raised his head and looked at the gray crane, feeling very amused in his heart, and his originally heavy heart was released.

Because this is not an ordinary bird.

And with the previous string of illustrious names disappearing forever, the emperor thought that no one would dare to run in front of him and pretend to be a ghost.

"The crane is an immortal, and he was born to roar for nine days, and he should not parrot and pretend to be a ghost. ”

The emperor folded a faint yellow chrysanthemum from the garden, which should have withered in this season, but the light chrysanthemum of the Houya was still blooming brilliantly in Hedong Jiedu.

"Your Majesty is in trouble, and you are still here to chant the wind and the moon, and it is really a good Yaxing. ”

The old crane croaked like a dead bird.

It's just an introduction.

The emperor had already sensed that at this time, there were already four first-class masters in the garden.

These people never learn their lesson, and the emperor sneered.

There is now a saying on the rivers and lakes that if you want to trap someone, then let him assassinate the emperor, and it is best to enter the palace to assassinate the emperor.

The emperor's subordinates already have a series of names of grandmasters and masters, as well as a number of first-class people in the rivers and lakes.

Li Xu really couldn't imagine that at this moment, there were still people who were brave enough to come to his own trouble.

"You guys, this is self-defeating. ”

"Gaga...... Quack ......" the gray crane opened its mouth and shouted, as if mocking.

The light chrysanthemum in the emperor's hand was thrown forward, and a fierce true qi was transformed into yin flexibility, and the yellow light chrysanthemum turned into a bolt of lightning, like a flying hammer that ran over the chest of the old gray crane, bringing out a little blood, and the yellow chrysanthemum was also stained with blood at this moment.

On the courtyard wall, four figures appeared at this moment, they were of different heights, but the murderous aura and divine intent revealed, each of them was between a grandmaster master and a super-first-class master.

What's even more amazing is that each of them wears a sparkling jade mask on their faces, and although the jade materials are different, they are all carved with exquisite animal heads.

The first one is emaciated, with a mask in the shape of a crane's head.

The other man was short and stout, and his whole person exuded an astonishing anger, with a hideous pig face on his face.

The third person was slender and tall, although he wore a deer-head mask on his face, but the whole person exuded a chic meaning that could not be concealed.

The fourth has a monkey face on his face, and his figure is also tall, but it has a plain meaning.

Yes, they are all masters. The Emperor's killing intent quickly swept over the surrounding people, who were obviously prepared.

So the emperor roared.

"Someone, there's an assassin, escort!"
