The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 608 Before New Year's Eve

As night falls, tonight is the last day of Taian's 25 years.

In accordance with Zhao Yanxun's edict, all prefectures and counties in Longyou will cancel the curfew tonight, and local government offices can organize their own New Year celebrations.

The people in Longyou who have worked for a whole year really need to relax. After all, the continuous work for a year has indeed brought great pressure to everyone.

There are different ways of celebrating in different prefectures and counties, but the most lively must belong to Yuanyang City.

On the streets, government offices held lantern festivals, as well as acrobatic performances such as dragon and lion dances.

"Brother Sanqiu, I just said that the lights here are lively, what are you doing at home..."

Being pulled by the girl and walking on the street, although no one paid attention to him, Li Sanqiu still felt a little embarrassed.

Although he is already the General Banner of the Army and Horse Division, and although he has killed countless zombies, when he meets the girl he loves, he is still the shy third child of the Li family.

"Xiaoqi, it's so easy for the empress to grant you a day off. We should talk to the elders at home!"

Li Sanqiu couldn't get used to the boldness of Xiaoqi, his fiancée.

"I said, my parents have come out to join in the fun, who is still staying at home..." Xiaoqi's tone was dissatisfied.

After the outbreak of the end of the world, it has formed an impact on the old etiquette system. Right now, no one will despise the relationship between young men and women, unless it goes too far.

"If you despise me, then I will go back to the palace now, and say that I can't have a hot pot meal with my empress!"

Seeing that his fiancée is unhappy, Li Sanqiu dares to say anything nonsense.

Fortunately, he turned his head fast enough, so he asked, "Xiao Qi, what is hot pot?"

"You don't even know about hot pot? You say you're well-informed..."

Xiao Qi introduced it as if showing off, and while pulling Li Sanqiu's clothes, he walked into the crowd and was finally submerged in the lights.

Ordinary people want to have fun, but officials are rarely willing to join in the fun, especially those of higher rank.

For example, Guan Hetai, the privy envoy at the moment, stayed in the room with his family, drank a few sips of wine, and felt very happy.

Putting down his wine glass, Guan Hetai couldn't help but said: "Your Highness said that last year everyone had fun, and this year let everyone go home and have fun alone. It has been a year..."

"Although it's only been one year, it makes people feel...it's been three or five years!"

Just listening to the voice, Guan Tang knew that her husband was not sober anymore.

But this year, it was rare to have such a relaxing time, so Guan Tang did not persuade her husband to drink less.

But at this moment, there were only the two of them in the room, a son and a daughter had already left the house and went to join in the fun on the streets of the city.

Seeing that no one answered what he said, Guan Hetai also felt that it was boring, and after a few moments of silence, he got up from the stool.

Seeing her husband walking out the door, Guan Tang could not stop asking, "Where is Master going?"

"There's no one to talk to, I'll go to Lao Zhou!" Guan Hetai replied.

"Zhou Changshi? What are you looking for with him? I remember... the master has complained about him a lot before!" Guan Tang was extremely puzzled.

"It's hard to work with him, but it's good to be friends with him, what do you know, you woman!" At this point, Guan Hetai himself laughed.

Zhou Chengping's temper is bad and tough, even now recalling the situation of working together in the Changshi Division, Guan Hetai feels aggrieved and uncomfortable.

But I have to say that Zhou Chengping is very honest, and it's good to be a friend, at least he can confide in his heart...

In the huge Longyou, Zhou Chengping is the only one who can make Guan Hetai confide in his heart.

When Guan Hetai went to find Zhou Chengping, the west hall of Jinshen Hall was still lit.

In the palace tonight, except for the guards and eunuchs and maids on duty, everyone else is on leave and can arrange their time freely.

Zhao Yanxun can give the whole Longyou a vacation, but he can't give it to himself, after all, this property belongs to him.

At this moment, in front of him, there are reports one after another, which are reports about the defection of the Imperial Army.

Just now, it was sent back to Jinshen Hall from Ningyang by phone, and was recorded by the eunuch and presented to Zhao Yanxun.

This investigation report is the preliminary result of the joint trial of Lin Quan, Ningyang government office, and Ningyang guard.

In the report, the interrogation results of Shi Xiong and others were described.

"It turns out that this Shi Xiong is actually Xu Longsheng's dark son in Shenwuwei, and this person has actually thought of joining Xu Longsheng..."

Zhao Yanxun sighed and said: "The person Xu Longsheng is about to die, there are still people who want to go to him, how stupid!"

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, and we have to continue to investigate, so Zhao Yanxun wrote: "Strictly interrogate, and ask the accomplices!"

Although he is confident in defeating Xu Longsheng, if his pawns are hidden among the forbidden army, a counterattack at a critical moment may cause big trouble.

The most terrible thing is that if Zhao Yanxun wants to use these hundreds of households in the imperial army, he must ensure that this team will not have two hearts.

Therefore, the double-faced fleece inside must be dug out.

Putting down the tip of the pen after writing, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice, "Pass this sentence to Lin Quan!"

"Yes!" After Huo An answered, he immediately arranged for the little eunuch beside him.

Dressed in unlined clothing, Zhao Yanxun walked out of Jinshen Hall, listening to the joyous noise outside, his mood improved a little.

If any accomplices are really found out, it may cause a chain reaction in various places, causing the newly surrendered Forbidden Army to rebel again.

If you want to deal with it, you have to order the local guards to strengthen the restraint on these forbidden troops, but this is not in conflict with Zhao Yanxun's Huairou policy.

At this moment, a young eunuch appeared on the side of Jinshen Hall, and tiptoed to Huo An's side to whisper.

Huo An showed a look of embarrassment, now is not the time to disturb.

The little eunuch on the side reminded: "Eunuch, I want you to pass the message... This is what the empresses mean!"

There was no other way, Huo An could only bite the bullet and stepped forward, hooked his waist and said: "My lord...the ladies are still waiting in Yuqiongyuan!"

"understood!"

This answer made the little eunuch who sent the message go in without knowing it. What does "I got it" mean?When will the prince go over?
After pacing back and forth a few times, Zhao Yanxun finally stood still, and then walked into the Jinshen Hall.

When he came to the west side hall and took a seat, Zhao Yanxun picked up his pen to write again.

"Order all the guards to divide the soldiers of the imperial army under their jurisdiction again. The number of people in each place should not exceed ten, and the soldiers should be taught to triple!"

Nowadays, after the imperial guards are assigned to the guards, they are settled by each guards themselves, and the number of separated imperial guards varies.

Subdivide the forbidden army and reduce their size as much as possible. Even if someone hides evil intentions and wants to provoke trouble, they will not be able to form a joint force.

"Immediately send it to the Privy Council and let them pass it on immediately!"

"Yes!"

After arranging all these, Zhao Yanxun walked towards the bedroom, he had to change his clothes before going to perfunctory.

After his two orders were delivered to the Privy Council, the officials on duty were very busy.

And when the Privy Council hurriedly conveyed the news, it also made the guards on the other side busy, and this New Year's Eve was not safe after all.
