The bright moon hangs high, and the cold wind blows.

Zhu Di stood with his hands in his hands, and the thick trunk of the national acacia behind him was like a resolute guard, guarding Zhu Di's safety. And at this moment, Zhu Di's back is as straight as a tree trunk.

Xia Yuanji has brought too much news, and he is in the middle of the court, so he is much clearer than the people outside. Xia Yuanji told Zhu Di that the Southern Dynasty at this moment had completely corrupted the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the people were miserable. It is true that there are still millions of troops, but how many of these people are willing to serve Zhu Yunwen!

Too many people are looking forward to the prince immediately waving his army south to save the people.

Zhu Di didn't think that Xia Yuanji was lying, but he knew himself and his opponent, so that he could not be defeated in a hundred battles. The situation in Beiping was not much better, and Liu Chun started large-scale construction, which was a last resort.

Originally, Beiping had many factories and workshops, mainly transporting goods to the south of the Yangtze River, but since the outbreak of the Jingnan, the Cao Yun was cut off, and these workshops were at risk of closing down.

Zhu Gaochi once organized the workers to guard Beiping together.

After the peace was negotiated, the siege of Beiping was resolved, but the predicament of Beiping was still there.

How do these workers settle down, and how do so many soldiers solve it...... If you just eat white rice, Beiping will completely collapse. There is no choice but to start large-scale construction and work for relief.

The construction of buildings and buildings is just the right time to provide orders for factories and workshops to bring them back to life...... According to Liu Chun's estimate, it will take at least a year and a half for Beiping to recover, and when the army moves south, it will have sufficient resources to support it.

Zhu Di wanted to wait, wait until everything was ready, and then make a move...... "Go, invite Liu Chun and Yao Guangxiao." Zhu Di needs these two henchmen very much to give him a suggestion.

Not long after, Liu Chun and Dao Yan met at the gate of the mansion, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Master Daoyan, the prince still can't make up his mind, most likely let the two of us give some advice......" Liu Chun lowered his voice, "Master, the two of us should ventilate first, and then run in front of the prince to quarrel, it will be too embarrassing." ”

Dao Yan thought for a while and said with a smile: "That's what I mean, Lord Liu, do you think with the current situation in Beiping, can you fight?" ”

Liu Chun's face was full of embarrassment, "I started the construction because I wanted to restore the vitality of Beiping, and now the people in the south are fleeing to Beiping in a big way, which happens to be used as labor." To be honest, I wish there were more people coming to me! Liu Chun said with a heartfelt smile.

Dao Yan pondered for a moment, "Yes, not long after the peace was negotiated, he tore up the agreement and reversed himself, it was not a gentleman's act, and the old man did not agree to use troops." ”

Liu Chun smiled, "Since that's the case, then let's decide!" ”

Dao Yan nodded in agreement.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them appeared in the garden, and saw that Zhu Di was still standing under the locust tree, looking up at the sky, he must still be hesitating.

"Lord Wang!"

Zhu Di heard the footsteps, hurriedly turned around, and squeezed out a smile.

"Master, Liu Chun, you are here. Xia Yuanji told this king all the way, all of which told me to go south immediately, do you think what he said makes sense? ”

Liu Chun and Dao Yan looked at each other and said in unison: "The minister thinks it is reasonable, and he should send troops!" ”

When these words came out, without waiting for Zhu Di to react, the two of them glared at each other angrily!

"Master, you have gone back on your word!"

Dao Yan rolled his eyes angrily, "Liu Chun, how did you frame the poor monk, it's obviously you ......"

The two of them were about to quarrel, and Zhu Di said angrily: "Enough! Master, let's talk about it first! ”

Dao Yan had no choice but not to worry about Liu Chun, this kid is really not a thing, if he didn't have an extra heart, he would really be cheated by him.

The old monk coughed, "Lord Wang, judging from the news brought by Xia Yuanji, Zhu Yunwen's cheap sale of the Royal Bank has shaken the hearts of the people in the southeast. Small and medium-sized merchants, citizens in the city, dare not speak out against Zhu Yunwen. In addition, he promoted the township Yong and set up the Li Jin. The countryside had fallen into the hands of the gentry, and now it had lost the hearts and minds of the people in the cities. Lao Wei really couldn't find how many people were willing to support Zhu Yunwen, even if he had an army of one million, it was just similar to the former Qin Fujian. As long as the army goes, it will definitely disintegrate the ice! ”

Zhu Di frowned slightly, "Master, what you said is reasonable, but do everything according to your ability, with the current situation in Beiping, how many men and horses can you support to fight?" This king can't afford to lose either! ”

After Zhu Di sighed, he looked at Liu Chun again, "It's time for you to say, what do you think?" ”

Liu Chun smiled dumbly, "Lord Wang, if I were to make a decision, I would definitely not send troops." That's my personality. But the prince and I are different after all, and there is a great opportunity in front of us. And I know that the prince regards Daming as his home, and the inheritance left by the first emperor is so ruined, if the prince sits idly by, is he still the son of the first emperor? ”

Liu Chun concluded: "Intellectually, the minister does not recommend using troops, but emotionally, the minister expects that the prince will definitely send troops!" ”

Zhu Di snorted angrily: "Liu Chun, listen to what you mean, this king is an irrational person?" ”

Liu Chun laughed at himself, "Lord Wang, the minister has already suffered a big loss because of his character, and I guessed that Zhu Yunwen and his masters would make a mess of the world." But I didn't come forward, but entrusted the responsibility of cleaning up the mountains and rivers on the prince. Therefore, Liu Chun will always be Liu Chun, and the prince is the male lord who inherits the first emperor! Obey the command, only do your best! ”

After saying this, Zhu Di's hands trembled, he stared at Liu Chun in surprise, and only laughed for a while, "Master, can you hear Liu Chun's flattery?" ”

Dao Yan said blankly: "Lao Wei didn't hear it, Lord Liu's sycophant kung fu is really formless, the first in the world!" After the old bald donkey finished speaking, he also stretched out his thumb to Liu Chun.

The three of them looked at each other again and smiled...... Liu Chun's words are not only sycophants, but also a warning, Zhu Di is a donkey, and he can't listen to direct opposition.

But Liu Chun told him that you are the hope of the people in the world and the best choice to save the country. At this time, Zhu Di calmed down, and he also knew that he should be very cautious and cautious in using troops with small and big risks.

In this way, let Zhu Gaoxu and Lan Yong each command 5,000 soldiers and horses, go south to the Dezhou area, and wait for the opportunity to move. If you really have a chance, you might as well capture Jinan Mansion! ”

Zhu Di still wants to test it...... It's just that including him, as well as Liu Chun and Dao Yan, they didn't expect that an upcoming incident in Shandong would drag the two sides directly into the strategic Armageddon, and the two opponents who were not ready went to the battle of life and death in advance.

Yanzhou Mansion Yamen.

A few oil lamps swayed in the cold wind, and an official who was not too old gently took off the black veil on his head and took off his official uniform.

He carefully folded everything.

Then he went to the case again, and laid the thick stack of books in front of him, and he opened it to examine it carefully...... Yanzhou, Jining, Caozhou, Jinan...... Here is the land inventory of these places.

He had checked the local fish scale book in detail and corrected all the discrepancies.

After his cleanup, more than 1.3 million acres of land were found for the imperial court.

And these fields were previously hidden in the names of large households in Shandong.

As long as these lists are handed over to the household department, they can soon be used as proof of taxation, and all fields are given equal servitude, and everything will be successful.

It's a pity that he can't see that day anymore.

Staring at the inventory, there were tears in his eyes, dots and spots, which fell on the inventory, and he hurriedly brushed them away, turned his head to wipe his tears.

At this time, someone suddenly shouted: "Lord Xun, come with us!" ”

He was stunned for a moment, then turned around and pushed open the door, and there were four brocade guards outside, smiling at him.

"Lord Xun, you are always an official of the imperial court, we will not give you the royal law, presumably you will not make trouble for our brothers, let's hurry up and get on the road."

This Lord Xun nodded, "A few errands, I still have something to bring." He turned his head and took the official uniform and the inventory together.

"My black yarn will be returned to Your Majesty, these lists are the results of my implementation of the law change in Shandong, I hope you can transfer them to Your Majesty, this is the last bit of loyalty I have done for Your Majesty."

Jin Yiwei frowned, took the inventory in his hand, looked at it for a long time, and said helplessly: "Lord Xun, I can't hand over this thing, and I won't let me send it." ”

Lord Xun's face was sad, and he said in a low voice: "Shangcha, millions of fathers and elders in Shandong, whether they can live and work in peace and contentment depends on these things!" You guys...... Patience? ”

The Jinyi guard led by him flipped through again and sighed heavily, "It's done, what we are doing is something that lacks virtue for eight lifetimes." These things, I risk handing them to Lord Fang, as for the rest, I can't take care of it! ”

When Lord Xun heard this, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you for your kindness!" ”

Jin Yiwei sighed heavily, and hurriedly helped Lord Xun up, "Let's go, before dawn, hurry out of the city!" ”

Lord Xun was also very obedient, obediently followed Jinyiwei and went out of the mansion together.

But at the moment when the door of the mansion was opened, suddenly, behind the courtyard doors around, torches were lit, and someone behind the door said in a trembling voice: "Lord Xun! Is it Lord Xun? ”

"Lord Xun is going to be taken away!"

"Take care, my lord!"

"My lord, what are we going to do when you're gone?"

……

Greetings and torches illuminate a street.

The tears in Lord Xun's eyes couldn't be stopped any longer, and he tried to bite his lip, holding his breath and concentrating, not wanting to make a sound. But several brocade guards panicked, especially the one who led them.

He chose to leave in the middle of the night because he was afraid that something would happen! But who would have thought that the people of Yanzhou would not sleep in the middle of the night. Isn't that going to be a bad thing?

"Quick, let's go!"

He urged in a low voice, and the others quickened their pace and rushed to the city gate together, at this time there was still a long time before the city gate was opened, and the Jinyi guard couldn't wait.

"Jinyi Wei is on business, open the city quickly!"

The soldiers above were dazed and opened the city gates...... They then left the city, but as soon as they left the gates, they were stunned by what they saw.

Torches, torches everywhere! In the black field, I don't know how many people there were, they were holding shovels and hoes, stones and sticks, men and women, old and young!

That's tens of thousands!

They glared at the brocade guards and pressed over step by step.

"Please leave Lord Xun behind!"

The leader shouted angrily, and all the brocade guards knelt down...... This is going to be a big deal!
