Chapter 627: The fish die and the net is broken
Chapter 627 The octopus is dead
"Miss Xu just ask, Nie must know everything!"
"Master Nie came to Yuan from Qingyun Village, and he must pass through Yu County, Jingling County, and Xinghe area along the way—"
After hearing this, Lord Nie thought for a while and nodded.
In order to avoid encountering the court head-on, if he danced under the opponent's eyelids, he couldn't pretend to be blind, so he deliberately avoided a few heavily guarded places, and he took this route.
Thinking about it, he looked at Xu Mingyi.
A female doll, the terrain route backside down is very clear.
Next, I heard the girl ask: "Can Lord Nie tell me what I have seen along the way, what is the situation in these places nowadays, and what is the situation of the people?"
She also sent people out of Linyuan City to inquire about the nearby situation secretly, and the news she brought back really made her feel uneasy.
She wanted to hear what Lord Nie came along this way, and what she saw along the way.
Speaking of this, Lord Nie couldn't help sighing.
"Not so good..."
He roughly talked about what he saw with Xu Mingyi.
Naturally it is not good.
Otherwise, how could he add nearly 2,000 people this way?
If it were desperate, there is really no way, who would just keep up with him just for a bite?
"……"
Under the cold moonlight, listening to the suffering of these people in his ear, Xu Mingyi quietly clenched the fingers in his sleeves without realizing it.
"Thank you, Lord Nie, for telling me."
She thanked her and left here with Akui.
Looking at the girl’s leaving back, the black-faced teenager asked in a low voice: "Father...Is this the granddaughter of General Xu's family?"
"What?" Lord Nie squinted at his suddenly awkward son.
"Did you say before that you want to **** the Xu family girl to me as the young lady of the village..."
Looking at a black-faced and red-faced son, Lord Nie's eyes widened, and one ear scraped on the back of the boy's head.
Immediately afterwards, he kicked the boy's **** again.
"You have to remind the Xu family to settle accounts with Lao Tzu, right? Dare to mention this again, and see if Lao Tzu won't screw your head!"
The smelly boy doesn’t look where he is now!
Is this a place to dream!
"Didn't you tell me..." The boy rubbed the sore buttocks aggrievedly.
Lord Nie stretched out his hand and grabbed one of the young man's ears.
Isn’t he saying that he can talk, can he take it seriously?
He also said to kill General Xu!
"I said? I said last time that I would break your leg! Do you want me to call you now! Ah?!" As he said, his hand twisted his ears harder.
"It hurts, it hurts..." the boy cried out in pain.
Zhai Master Nie returned to the arranged camp while hitting his son.
After Zhen Guoguo drank sober soup and fell asleep, Xu Mingyi returned to the city with Xu Mingshi.
The closed city gate slowly opened, Xu Mingyi riding a horse in front, Xu Mingshi behind, and a Tianmu lying on horseback in front of him.
A group of people entered the city, and the soldiers guarding the city closed the gate again.
Listening to the heavy sound of the city gate closing behind him, Xu Mingyi's heart sank.
Linyuan City is now being governed in good order. Once this gate is closed, the people don’t have to worry about anything.
At the time of the autumn harvest, his father also sent Xu Jiajun to help the people harvest crops.
Although temporarily severing the trade with the outside of the city, the livelihood will be somewhat affected, but at the same time, there is no need to pay for grain from the government.
She stayed in this Linyuan City all day long, and everything she saw was a stable scene, and subconsciously ignored the situation outside Linyuan City.
This night, Xu Mingyi almost stayed up all night.
There is a voice tossing in his head—why the dog emperor hasn’t died yet?
I heard that I can’t even get out of the bed, but I still hold on in that tone.
Recently, the court has issued many new decrees...
The emperor was probably a little mad from illness. Looking at the recent situation, he was vaguely determined to die with King Yan.
What do you use to make a net?
But it’s still the people of the world...
Soldiers and horses are being mobilized everywhere, conscripts and grains.
And yesterday she heard a new piece of news. After King Yan’s subordinates beheaded the imperial envoy who went to Mizhou to pass the decree for punishment, there was also an accident at King Jing’s Mansion in Liangzhou.
There is no evidence at all. Just because Liangzhou is located at a critical point, fearing that the king will become the help of the King Yan, the emperor accused the brother of a female compatriot of colluding with the King Yan for treason.
The soldiers and horses in the hands of King Jing have been taken back by the court, and now everyone in the King’s Mansion is escorted to the capital to be convicted.
Punishment...
The word is so ridiculous.
Xu Mingyi's thoughts are complicated, and he can't relax for a moment.
She suddenly sat up from the bed.
Outside the window, it's just a moment of shining.
She got out of the bed with her bare feet, and Azhu, who was guarding outside, heard the movement and walked in.
"Will the girl get up and practice arrows?"
It was half an hour earlier than usual.
"I won't practice arrows today." Xu Mingyi wore an indigo-colored robe, raised his hand to lift out the blue silk that was behind him, and said, "Let Uncle Zhu take a few people with me and come out of the city with me."
Azhu didn't ask much about why she was going out of the city suddenly, so she should only get down and immediately search for her father.
Akui quickly came in with a basin to wait for Xu Mingyi to wash.
Simply used the morning meal, Xu Mingyi asked someone to leave a message to the family members, and then left the city, and the group went south on horseback.
Stop and go for a whole day.
Seeing that the sky will be dark, Zhu Xiu suggested to go to a small town in front to take a rest.
Xu Mingyi nodded, and he still remembered the refugees who were begging along the road today.
"This town has been here before by subordinates. I remember that there is an inn on the street in front." After entering the town, the group of horses slowed down.
"Is it like this before?" Xu Mingyi sat on the horse and walked slowly, looked around, and asked Zhu Xiu.
Zhu Xiu knew what she was asking, she paused slightly, and then replied, “I remember that this street was quite lively before.”
At the moment, the sky is not completely dark. Looking at the street, there are almost no people. The shops facing the street are mostly closed, not to mention the presence of vendors.
In this case, their group of people walking on the street is particularly eye-catching, and the sound of horseshoes is also particularly eye-catching.
Xu Mingyi raised his head and looked forward. A wine shop seemed to be still open, or he could ask about it.
However, before they could come forward, they heard the sound of hurriedly closing the door.
When closed the door, she faintly heard a man's low voice and said anxiously——
"Quickly...close the door, the official post is here again!"
Zhu Xiu also listened.
When these people heard the sound of horseshoes, they assumed that they were officials from the government, and they did not dare to open the door, like a frightened bird.
He guessed: “I heard that the government around here is requisitioning a lot of grain from the people. In some places, they even go straight to the homes. How much is there to get.”
Take as much as you have...
Xu Mingyi straightened the corners of his mouth.
This is not to take, but to grab.
And at this point, she realized another strange thing.
"Uncle Zhu thinks there is something wrong with this place?"
