Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 452
The official road ten miles outside the imperial city of Daliao was now occupied by tens of thousands of barely clothed and disgraced refugees.

They were all yellow and thin, like zombies, as if they would be blown down by the wind in the next moment.

Several refugees suddenly fell down while walking, and were then stepped on by the refugees behind them.

There were also a few with green eyes glowing, biting the bark of the tree with their teeth, and didn't even care if the bark cut their mouths and left blood.

Two men in the crowd, each holding a baby, handed the babies in their hands to each other's hands while crying.

Da da da--

Two fine horses suddenly came running from the direction the refugees were heading, carrying two men in flying swallow suits on their backs.

This is the costume worn exclusively by the royal guards of the Daliao Kingdom. The two men also wear a gorgeous Feiyan Sword on their waists.

The two Feiyan guards reined in their horses and stopped in front of the crowd. The dust raised from the hoofs of the horses caused dozens of refugees in front of them to cough continuously.

"We are the Feiyan Guards of the Daliao Liao Dynasty, you - you are presumptuous!"

One of the Feiyan Guards just opened his mouth, only to find that the refugees in front of him suddenly swarmed up.

Some yelled "Give me something to eat!" while stretching out their hands to grab Feiyanwei.

Some went too far, biting the horse directly with saliva, scaring the horse almost to the point of madness.

Snapped--

The refugees suddenly settled down.

The two Feiyan Guards were breathing heavily and clutching the long whips in their hands tightly.

There was a refugee lying in front of him, a bloodstain half a meter long straddled his motionless body, and the blood stained the surrounding land red.

There are also several bodies behind the horse's butt. They tried to bite the horse but were kicked out by the horse's hoof.

"A bunch of troublemakers!"

Feiyanwei yelled angrily, but the refugees seemed relatively calm at this time. They had already woken up from the initial madness.

Sure enough, blood and pain are the most sobering people. Looking at the two people in front of them, they are dressed in rich clothes, their faces are like crowns of jade, and they are riding two tall horses. At first glance, they are high-ranking officials in the city.

This time, no refugees dared to be presumptuous, but they still kept shouting towards Feienemon.

"My lord, please give me something to eat!"

"quiet!"

The two Feiyan Guards shouted loudly. Although there were still some shouts, they were much quieter.

"I ask you, where are you from?"

After waiting for a while, a skinny old man in front of him answered tremblingly.

"There are everywhere, Yunzhou, Shizhou, Kaizhou, everyone gathered from different places."

Feiyanwei paled in shock and asked hastily.

"Why are you all fleeing?"

"Most of them are famines, and there are also wars."

Looking around at Feiyanwei, there were tens of thousands of refugees, most of whom were half-clothed and dying.

"Why not ask the local government office for help?"

"If the Yamen doesn't do anything, sir, he will watch us die!"

The old man suddenly became agitated and burst into tears, and the refugees around him also burst into tears when they heard him cry.

Seeing this, the two Feiyan guards frowned, held back their irritability and hurriedly asked a few more questions, then rode back to the imperial city to return to their orders.

The court hall of Daliao Kingdom was eerily quiet at the moment, and the face of the king was extremely ugly.

Kneeling on one knee in front of the hall, two Feiyan guards were repeating the information they had collected to the Lord of the Daliao Kingdom.

Although Chen Yi is a foreign envoy, he is also at the forefront of the ministers because he is an important figure in the trade between the two countries.

After listening to Fei Yanwei's words, Chen Yi always felt a strong sense of weirdness in his heart.

Chen Yi had been an adviser to the Liao Kingdom for so long, and even supported the second prince to the throne. He knew the situation of the Liao Kingdom very well.

As far as he knew, although the population of the Great Liao Kingdom was not as large as that of the Great Wu Kingdom, the number of citizens was also very large.

A state's population ranges from 10,000+ to millions.

Even if there is a famine, a mere 1 people is not worth mentioning in front of this base number. How could officials from all over the country sit idly by and let so many refugees run out of their borders without even any news.

The most important thing is, don't they know that once the refugees enter the imperial city, the king will punish them?

While Chen Yi was thinking, he noticed a voice coming from behind.

Turning his head and looking, the officials moved aside one after another, and an old Taoist priest dressed in Taoist costumes, wearing a cloud crown, and holding a whisk in his hand came in.

This old man has a childlike face, a smile on his face, and looks like a fairy.

"The lord."

The old Taoist walked to the front of the palace without looking sideways and gave a Taoist salute to the king.

"Master, why wasn't you here yesterday?"

The Lord of Daliao Kingdom spoke calmly, extremely dissatisfied with Master Daoyi's attitude of coming and leaving whenever he wanted.

"Master, Pindao predicted that there would be a catastrophe in our Daliao Kingdom, so he prayed to heaven for a solution."

"Oh, what is the great disaster that the national teacher said?"

"The widow just signed a commercial alliance with the envoys of the Dawu Kingdom yesterday, forming a century-old friendship."

"A rich country and rich people are just around the corner. Thinking of the obstacles and predictions made by the National Teacher before, I really can't understand it!"

The tone of the lord of the Daliao Kingdom was aggressive, and he was bullied enough by this sorcerer before.

But now under Chen Yi's plan, the road of trade between the two countries will definitely have a very important effect on the country.

Besides, Chen Yi was in the hall at this time, and the lord of the Daliao Kingdom finally stopped being patient.

"My lord, if the business alliance is really beneficial to the country and the people, how can the refugees explain it today?"

"This refugee is the beginning of the Great Liao Kingdom's catastrophe!"

"So I also ask the lord to withdraw his order and cancel the trade alliance with the Dawu Kingdom, so that our Daliao Kingdom will be spared from the catastrophe!"

Master Daoyi's words were sincere and sincere, as if he was about to shed tears while speaking.

Chen Yi looked at Master Daoyi, a loyal minister risking his life to remonstrate, and was indifferent in his heart. Not to mention him, even the lord of the Daliao Kingdom was very indifferent.

It's just that Chen Yi carefully observed Master Daoyi's face, and he was very sure that neither Chen Yi before his time travel nor after he time traveled had ever seen Master Dao Yi.

Not to mention traveling with Master Daoyi and becoming close friends.

"What nonsense!"

The Lord of the Daliao Kingdom slapped the armrest angrily when he heard Master Daoyi's words.

"Master Daoyi, not to mention that the refugee issue has nothing to do with the trade between the two countries, just talk about the good trade between the two countries. This is a move that the two countries will benefit for thousands of years and benefit forever."

"Don't you understand?"

Master Daoyi couldn't help but change his face when he heard the lord of the Daliao Kingdom's anger.

He didn't expect that the lord of the Daliao Kingdom who was respectful to him on weekdays would become so powerful today, which really caught him off guard.

Just as Master Daoyi was about to speak again, a Feiyan guard walked quickly to the front of the hall while pleading guilty.

"Master, I have something to report to you!"

"Say it!"

The Lord of the Daliao Kingdom's expression froze. This Feiyanwei was a spy he had released to follow the refugees. Now that he is a refugee, the situation has changed again.
