Chapter 1387: Prelude (7 thousand) _4
Satisfied, the member of the Heaven and Earth Society went back to his room to sleep, leaving li lingsu standing alone in the courtyard.
Oh, right. Your parents died when you were young, right? I’ll chat with the two elders later. Li Miaozhen added with a smile.
Li lingsu had parents who were also members of the heavenly sect.
What’s the point of me living … The Saint asked himself.
Qingzhou City, chief administrator’s Yamen.
In the hall, yang Gong, the purple Sun recluse with a thin face and a goatee, was seriously reviewing the intelligence sent back by the spy.
now, we understand why the refugees are swarming into Yunzhou.
Yang Gong, who was the chief administrator of Qingzhou, looked at the officials in the hall with a serious face and said, ”
according to the intelligence, Yunzhou’s government has issued a notice to open the Granary and absorb refugees into the Army.
Yunzhou is going to rebel … The officials ‘expressions darkened. There was no surprise or anger, only calmness and solemnity.
As early as two months ago, not long after the former emperor was killed by Xu Qi ‘an in the capital, the Imperial court issued more than a dozen court memorials to Qingzhou, ordering Qingzhou to prepare for war, to stock up on grain, iron, and repair the city walls.
Yunzhou was close to the ocean. To the South was the boundless ocean, and most of the land in the North was connected to Qingzhou.
If the previous dynasty wanted to use Yunzhou as a base to attack the capital, they had to take down Qingzhou to gain enough strategic depth.
If Qingzhou could not be taken down, the rebel army would be firmly suppressed in a corner of Yunzhou.
The supervising inspector pondered and said, ”
“We have to increase the intensity of disaster relief and curb the trend of the refugees fleeing South.”
Compared to other regions, the South was undoubtedly warmer and had more food, so the number of refugees in Qingzhou was extremely terrifying.
If all of these refugees were to head to Yunzhou, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The magistrate of Qingzhou shook his head repeatedly, ”
“Although the Imperial court has given us sufficient provisions, they are meant to be used in a prolonged battle. At present, the cold disaster is wreaking havoc in various places, and the Imperial court is short of food, which is wasted on the refugees. In the future, when we run out of food, we will collapse internally before the enemy attacks us.”
In a war, the first consideration was always the needs of the Army.
Another official said, ”
“The disaster is raging, and the number of refugees is far more than we imagined. Yunzhou dared to open their granaries, and their grain is not endless. Aren’t you afraid of dragging yourself down?” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Yang Gong said in a deep voice, ”
“In the past 20 years, the rebel army in Yunzhou has been hoarding money, grain, and military supplies for this moment. Their accumulation and Foundation are definitely beyond our imagination.”
“Lord chief administrator, what should we do then?”
The officials were all worried.
The refugees were now like mothers who had milk. They would work for whoever gave them food.
Yang Gong pondered for a moment and said, ”
“Seal off the border road to cloud region and stop the refugees from going south. Sending people to spread the news of the opening of the Granary in Yunzhou is considered a rumor. In addition, those who dare to spread the news will be killed without mercy.”
The magistrate of Qingzhou furrowed his brows,
“Lord chief governor, this will cause a mutiny among the refugees.”
Yang Gong laughed. I only said to seal off the road to Yunzhou. If the refugees have to travel across the mountains and rivers or go around to the neighboring provinces to the South, it’s none of our business.
The people present were all experienced and immediately understood the brilliance of chief administrator Yang’s plan.
The weather was cold, and the mountain roads were difficult to walk on. Not everyone could travel all the way South.
This greatly reduced the number of refugees coming down south.
It was the same logic to take a detour to the South of the neighboring province.
And because there was at least some hope, the refugees would not be caught in a life-and-death struggle.
The commander of Qingzhou said with emotion, ”
fortunately, our Qingzhou is still considered rich and prosperous, and our Granary reserves are sufficient. If it were two years ago, I’m afraid it would have been in chaos.
After more than a year of yang Gong’s governance, Qingzhou was well-governed, and every family had surplus grain. The official Granary also had sufficient grain reserves.
Now that he thought about it, the Imperial court had the foresight to respond early.
After two days and two nights of traveling, Ji Xuan arrived at Qingzhou first on the wind-controlling boat.
In order to prevent them from running into the supervisors outside Yunzhou, they changed their route and traveled a long distance, successfully entering Yunzhou.
Then, he rode the wind-controlling boat again and arrived at the hidden Dragon City.
Above the sea of clouds, Ji Xuan stood by the side of the ship and looked down at the magnificent city built by the mountain. His eyes were slightly dazed.

He had left home for two months, but it felt like two years. When he left the hidden Dragon City, he had six powerful warriors to help him. Now, he only had Xu yuanshuang and Xu yuanhuai with him.
Liu Hongmian and the other two were missing, and Daoist priest jiaoye had died in Yongzhou City.
This trip to the pugilistic world had left an indelible, rich, and colorful mark in his life.
“I’m finally back.”
The Imperial wind boat hovered above the hidden Dragon City. Xu yuanhuai carried his sister and jumped down from the sky.
Ji Xuan took advantage of the situation and rose into the air. He took out the small bronze cauldron and kept the scattered Dragon Qi and the wind-controlling boat into it.
Following the cobblestone slope, the three of them headed towards the peak of the mountain. The commoners and soldiers they met on the way all stopped in their tracks and greeted Ji Xuan.
Ji Xuan smiled gently and responded to them one by one. The higher he went, the fewer ordinary people there were, until they were all gone.
After passing through the short city walls, they entered the area where the royal family lived.
Ji Xuan headed south in the direction of the city Lord’s mansion.
The Xu siblings headed west, in the direction of the heaven’s Secret tower.
After passing through the sentries, Ji Xuan entered the city Lord’s mansion and met his father in the study.
A dignified middle-aged man in a luxurious purple robe stood in front of a large table with his hands on the table. He lowered his head and studied the map of the Central Plains that was spread out.
“I have discussed with the Imperial advisor and the generals. If we want to lead the Army North, we must take down Qingzhou.”
The purple-robed man didn’t raise his head. He looked at the map and said, ”
“However, Qingzhou is now in a state of iron, and yang Gong has managed it well. I have to say that the Confucian scholars are very good at governing the country and the Army.
“It’s not difficult to take down Qingzhou. However, it would be difficult to take them down with the least casualties and the fastest speed!
“What do you think?”
Ji Xuan walked to the side of the table and lowered his head to take a glance.
“We must take down Qingzhou, but there is no need to attack it head-on. We can use the southern border to pass through Yuzhou and enter the hinterlands of Qingzhou. Or, we can take the sea route and pass through the witchcraft cult’s territory.”
The purple-robed middle-aged man nodded in satisfaction and asked, ”
“How do you feel about this Jianghu trip?”
Ji Xuan’s face darkened. I’m ashamed. Xu Qi ‘an is too terrifying and powerful. So far, I’ve only collected some scattered Dragon Qi.
“The collapse of the Dragon Qi will make the situation in the Central Plains worse, which is the best result for us. As for Dragon Qi, it’s best if you can collect it, but if you can’t, there’s no need to force it. ”
The purple-robed middle-aged man smiled.
Ji Xuan’s expression relaxed slightly. on the way back, I saw many refugees entering Yunzhou. Father, are you planning to stir up trouble?”
“Three days later, I will be the new emperor of Yunzhou. You should prepare for that …”
The purple-robed middle-aged man said meaningfully.
Ji Xuan’s hands trembled slightly. He tried his best to suppress his excited emotions and bowed.
“Yes, father!”
On the west side, after entering the big mansion attached to the heaven secret tower, Xu yuanshuang and Xu yuanhuai went straight to the small courtyard where their mother lived without changing their clothes.
It was secluded and secluded. Apart from a few servants who served him, almost no one would visit.
In the quiet Hall where sandalwood was burning, a woman in a dark green coat, a pleated long dress, and a dignified woman’s hair in a bun sat cross-legged on a futon.
He closed his eyes and meditated.
Xu yuanshuang pushed open the door of the small hall and said softly, ”
“Mother, we’re back.”
Xu yuanhuai didn’t say anything, but he smiled.
The dignified and beautiful woman opened her eyes, as if relieved of a heavy burden, and smiled.
“It’s good that you’re back. Both of you have lost a lot of weight, and there’s something in your eyes. You must have been through a lot.”
She hesitated for a moment before asking, ”
“Did you meet him?”
