Chapter 238: Assassinated again
But if the common people know that this thing can solve their food and clothing, everyone is afraid that they will have to catch a net. Over time, the locusts will gradually decrease.
With Nanjun's advanced ideas and Liu Xiangjue's strong execution ability, the locust issue was quickly resolved.
It's just that the people's harvest this year is still worrying, and natural and man-made disasters are inevitable.
"Master Liu, most of the land in the northwest is arid, so the matter of digging wells is still the top priority."
Nan Jun said seriously.
"Yes."
Liu Xiangjue has been worrying about running out of water, and it is imperative to dig a well.
The government's relief food can only ensure that the people will not starve to death. If they want to live well, they have to find other ways out.
And what this Yuyang lacks most is water, without water, everything will wither, and so will people.
Where there is water, there is life, there is no doubt about it.
Since digging a well is a long-term solution, it is not good for Nanjun to stay here for a long time.
This trip to the northwest, Nan Jun already had a decision in his heart.
Floods are perennial in the south, and droughts are always encountered in the north. This is similar to the situation in the last century, and the South-to-North Water Diversion plan can also be implemented here.
But in the age of relying only on hands, it may be very difficult to complete the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, and it still needs to be carefully planned.
Nanjun got up early to prepare the memorial, and was going to hand it over to the emperor as soon as he returned to Beijing.
It's just that she never expected that the assassin who assassinated her in Zhennan Palace the day she first came came again.
"There are assassins, protect King Zhennan."
The guard's voice sounded in the quiet night, waking up those who were still asleep.
Nan Jun came out of the carriage, followed by Qiao Yun.
Qiao Yun's heart trembled when he saw the group of men in black.
This is a member of the Killer League, he can feel it even with his eyes closed.
Qiao Yun was puzzled, why did the master insist on taking Nan Jun's life?
Back then, under the pretense that Nanjun was his enemy, he was asked to go to Zhennan Palace to assassinate Nanjun in the middle of the night.
Qiao Yun never thought about it before, he was just one of the many disciples of the master, why did the master alone want to avenge him?
Now he understands that the grievances between the master and Nan Jun probably have nothing to do with him, and it is likely that Nan Jun's mother planted the root of the disaster when Nan Jun's mother was still alive.
When he just figured out this problem, Qiao Yun was still sad for a long time.
Now it seems that the master is just using him!
However, with so many people in the world, why did you choose him?
Is it a coincidence?
Or is it related to the Qiao family tragedy?
A long sword stabbed towards Nanjun, fast and ruthless.
Qiao Yun subconsciously pushed Nan Jun away, pulled out the sword Nan Jun gave him, and got entangled with the man in black.
"Junior brother, you are confused!"
The woman in black led Qiao Yun away, and after slowing down, she scolded Qiao Yun in a low voice.
"Senior sister, Nan Jun is a good person, I can't let you hurt him."
Qiao Yun's small face was tense, and he said seriously.
"Good man? I'm afraid she lied to you because she saw that you are innocent and easy to deceive. After I kill her, I will take you back to the mountains. Mother misses you very much."
Li Yunsheng has always known Qiao Yun's temperament, thinking that he was deceived by Nan Jun's rhetoric, so he would speak for her, he was anxious and angry.
"Senior Sister, if you must kill Nan Jun, then step over Qiao Yun's corpse!"
Qiao Yun saw Nan Jun's wisdom, saw with his own eyes how she benefited the common people, and accepted her warmth. Now they want to kill her again, how can he let him?
"Junior brother, don't you want to betray the master?"
Li Yunsheng was really annoyed, when did her innocent and lovely junior become so rebellious?
"Qiao Yun's life is only for the one hundred and three lives of the Qiao Mansion. When the master brought me back to the mountain, he agreed to avenge me, but now she is not my enemy, how can I kill innocent people indiscriminately? "
Qiao Yun entered the Assassin's League just to avenge his hatred. At the beginning, he thought that he would leave the Assassin's League after avenging the Qiao Mansion.
It is not Qiao Yun's liking to kill people, nor is it his original intention.
"Killing innocent people indiscriminately? Nan Jun is a running dog of the imperial court. I don't know how many people have been killed for that dog emperor. You still think she is innocent?"
Li Yun was so angry that she directly cursed that the grievances between her mother and the royal family were not formed overnight, Nan Jun was the emperor's right-hand man, killing Nan Jun would break one of the emperor's arms, which would always make people feel better.
"Senior sister, you... who is the master?"
Only then did Qiao Yun realize that something was wrong. The meaning behind what Li Yunsheng said was definitely not that simple.
Li Yunsheng was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that she had slipped her mouth. When Qiao Yun asked, she kept silent.
"Junior Brother, don't worry about these things, hurry up and kill the Nanjun dog thief with me, and then go back to the mountain."
Qiao Yun's face tensed, and he stared at Li Yunsheng.
From this point of view, the master definitely lied to him.
Qiao Yun believed more and more in his heart that Nan Jun was not the one who destroyed his Qiao Mansion.
"Even so, then Senior Sister will use her sword!"
Qiao Yun stood there stubbornly, as long as he was still standing here, no one could touch Nan Jun in the slightest.
Li Yunsheng shook his head in disappointment: "Junior brother, are you really going to break our friendship for many years because of Nanjun?"
Qiao Yun bit her lower lip tightly, clenched her shuriken tightly, and said seriously: "With me here, you can never touch her."
Li Yunsheng's eyes were red, his lips were trembling, and his slightly darkened face was extremely pale at this moment.
"Junior Brother, you have disappointed me too much."
As soon as the sword in Li Yunsheng's hand turned, he stabbed at Qiao Yun with a fierce move.
Qiao Yun raised his sword to meet it, but before he touched Li Yunsheng's sword, he was embraced by a familiar embrace.
"Where in this world is there any reason for a husband to protect his wife?"
The corners of Nan Jun's mouth curled up, and what he said made Qiao Yun's ears red.
"Nanjun, take your life!"
Li Yunsheng was very angry at Nanjun and Qiao Yun's intimacy, and stabbed at Nanjun's back.
Nan Jun tapped his toes, jumped up lightly, and took out a folding fan from his waist, entangled with Li Yunsheng's sword.
Qiao Yun couldn't help but stare dumbfounded. He only knew that Nan Jun was very strong in martial arts, but he didn't know that the senior sister who ranked first in the Killer League was also so vulnerable in front of Nan Jun.
Thinking about my stupidity back then, if Nan Jun wanted to kill him, how could he still be alive and kicking today?
In less than three rounds, Li Yunsheng was blocked by Nan Jun.
"Today, I am not as good as others. If I want to kill or cut, I will listen to you."
Li Yunsheng turned his head away, with a look of death on his face.
As a killer, she has already disregarded life and death. It's just that she has been practicing martial arts for twenty years, but she lost to Nan Jun, whom she had always wanted to kill, so she felt a little unwilling!
Nan Jun looked at Qiao Yun. She just wanted to know if Qiao Yun would mind. After all, he lost his family when he was young. Now if he loses the senior sister who grew up with him, it would be cruel to this child.
