Hearing Lord Chen, the companion fell silent.

"Really think about it."

"Think about it."

"Then I wish you the best of luck."

When the companion heard that the monkey was going to southern Xinjiang, he didn't stop him either.

"Brother, I'll go over there first, and when I gain a firm foothold in southern Xinjiang, I'll write to you. You bring your sister-in-law and nephew, and come with you." Monkey smiled at his companion.

The companion also squeezed out a bitter smile, and waved his hand feebly: "Let's go, you will be discovered if you are late."

"Brother, take care."

"You too, take care!"

The monkey ran away, and his companion watched the monkey's back. Seeing that the monkey's figure was about to disappear, he couldn't help calling out.

"Monkey, if you can gain a firm footing, remember to let me know."

Houzi nodded his head, and finally he also said what was in his heart: "Brother, who do you think His Majesty is going to use force to hit?"

The companion thought for a moment and fell silent.

"Brother, our short-lived good days were brought to us by Lord Chen. I don't want our brothers to fight each other on the battlefield in the future..."

After speaking, the monkey ran away.

The corners of the companion's eyes could not stop crying.

"Monkey, I don't want to, but I still have family members. I don't have as much courage as you. I just want them to live..."

The same thing happened in every camp in Dahua.

Not all people are ignorant.

……

"Mom, I'm hungry." A little boy was lying weakly in his mother's arms.

Hearing this, the woman couldn't stop crying, grabbed a handful of snow and fed it to the child, and swallowed a handful herself.

Ignoring the severe pain in her stomach, she carried the child on her back, and resolutely walked in one direction: "Mother will take you to a place where you can eat enough."

"Mom, is there really a place where you can eat enough? What kind of place is it?"

"Southern Border."

"Nanjiang, isn't that the fiefdom of Lord Chen? Will they let us go there?"

"Mother doesn't know, but Mother must send you to southern Xinjiang. My child, the sky has collapsed since the death of the first emperor. Those who can hold up a sky for us common people and care about us Only Lord Chen is left."

"It's a pity that the Ping'an Bank and the Ping'an Chamber of Commerce are gone, otherwise they would give me porridge, mother, I almost forgot what porridge tastes like.

Mother, I really want to grow up quickly, as long as I grow up, I can be a soldier.

Once you become a soldier, you can exchange food for your mother, so you don't have to go hungry anymore. "The boy murmured, and gradually there was no movement on the woman's back.

Yes, in the beginning, the Ping An Bank and the Ping An Chamber of Commerce did give porridge to the common people.

But later, all the members of the bank and the chamber of commerce were deported back to southern Xinjiang.

This is Li Xu's meaning, and it is also the meaning of the ministers in the DPRK and China.

Only when Ang Lee's chamber of commerce withdraws from the market, can their family's industry seize the market logically.

Chapter 466 Mass Migration

The woman wept bitterly, she seemed to have realized something, but she still walked forward resolutely with the child on her back, and the body temperature of the child on her back was rapidly passing away in this icy and snowy field.

After all, he still couldn't taste the porridge again.

This winter, the largest voluntary migration of people in the history of Dahua will leave a strong mark in history!

……

Beijing.

Winter is coming, and Li Xu has already wrapped himself in thick winter clothes.

There are also several braziers burning charcoal for heating in the hall.

The people had no rice to satisfy their hunger and no clothes to shelter from the cold, so they just took out a pot of the top-quality charcoal that was burned every day in the brazier in the temple, and one person could eat it for a year.

While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone!

"Your Majesty, there are reports from various places that a large number of people are heading towards the southern border. Looking at their movements, they may plan to move to the southern border. Your Majesty, please pay attention to this important matter!"

"Is this very important?" Li Xu smiled indifferently.

It seems important to others, but why is all this not in Li Xu's plan?

Hearing this, the minister looked at Li Xu with disbelief: "Your Majesty, the people have all gone to southern Xinjiang, and the population of southern Xinjiang will soar, which will definitely make southern Xinjiang continue to grow, which will be very detrimental to us. "

"Really? Who are the people who went there?"

"Women and children, old and weak..." The minister lowered his head.

The young and strong are now in the army, and those young and strong family members in the army have the guarantee of survival, so naturally they will not leave their homes.

Now those who rush to southern Xinjiang to seek a way out are all women, children, old and weak.

"A group of women, children, old and weak, no matter how much they give to Li An, what threat will it pose to me, Dahua?" Li Xu sneered.

"You don't understand my younger brother too much, he is kind-hearted, and he can't see the suffering of the people.

To resettle this large number of people, he will spend a lot of manpower and financial resources. These foolish people are not going to become Li An's help, but to use up Li An's background earlier for us. "

Hearing this, the ministers showed a look of sudden realization.

"Your Majesty is right, Your Majesty is wise!"

Li Xu ignored these bragging words, but said coldly: "Those people who are going to the southern border, the road cannot be stopped, and there should be no embarrassment.

Li An, I would like to see how many people can be accommodated in your small southern border?

I am very curious, you are so rich in Southern Xinjiang, and you have so many mouths at once, how long will it take to eat you up? "

……

Suixi City.

The general guarding the city stood on the city wall with a puzzled face. Now the city wall was crowded with people, and these people wanted to pass through Suixi City and go to the southern border.

In this world of ice and snow, the common people knelt on the ground, begging loudly.

His heart is also very uncomfortable.

He knew that these people were poor people, but according to the law, people were not allowed to leave their place of residence without permission.

He didn't know what the officials from all over the place did to make so many people run to his Suixi City.

He hasn't received the news yet, he only knows that these people don't have documents for passage, and according to the law, he can't let them pass!

"My lord, please open the city gate and let us pass, and leave us a way to survive." The people were still kneeling under the city wall, begging and weeping bitterly.

The guard clenched his fists unbearably, and after a long time, he said, "You don't have any documents to guide you. If you leave your place of residence without authorization, you have violated the laws of Dahua, so you should go back quickly."

"My lord, we really can't survive anymore, please let us go, let us go to find Lord Chen."

The cries of the people became louder.

Hearing this, the guard raised his head and took a deep breath, then looked back at the deserted countryside outside the city.

Since the new emperor ascended the throne, their communication between Suixi City and Southern Xinjiang has become less.

The people in southern Xinjiang are not allowed to come, and the people in Suixi City are not allowed to leave the city. Only those merchants who sell iron and salt occasionally pass through the two places.

He knew what his own emperor meant, but he didn't know what Lord Chen thought.

The guard turned his head, looked helplessly at the densely packed people in the city, and sighed: "Do you know how much pressure you will bring to Lord Chen when you all flock to the southern border at once? He will really tolerate and accept you all." what?

This is not just a matter of opening your mouth twice, but tens of thousands of mouths!

Who has the ability to feed you so many mouths all at once?Listen to Ben's advice, go back. "

After hearing what the guard said, the people were silent for a while.

That's right, so many people came at once, will Lord Chen really accept them all?

But if you go back, you will have to wait to die...

The eyes of the people are full of confusion and despair.

The atmosphere became cold and silent for a while, and at this moment, a messenger came galloping on a steed with an imperial decree: "Your Majesty has an order to open the city gate and let the people out of the city!"

Hearing this, the guard looked disbelieving, but still obeyed the imperial decree and opened the city gate.

The city gate was opened, and the people's eyes flashed with confusion for a moment, but then they resolutely walked out of the city.

Although the future is unknown, they still feel that it would be better to stay in Lord Chen's territory.

……

Just like that, watching a large number of people pour out of the city, the guard stood on the wall and muttered to himself: "Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"

……

Nanjiang County.

Seeing so many people suddenly appearing under the city wall, the county guard was in a daze, not knowing what to do for a while.

"My lord, we are really desperate, please help us beg the lord, give us a way to survive, please." The common people knelt under the city wall, begging bitterly.

The current sheriff of Nanjiang County came from Beichen Academy. He was only in a daze for a moment before making countermeasures.

"The official will send someone to distribute some anti-cold supplies and relief porridge to you, and you will temporarily settle outside the city, so as not to disturb the traffic, nor disturb the passing people and businessmen.

This officer is going to report to the prince, if there is any violation of the order, it will be dealt with according to the law!Do you understand? "

"Thank you, Lord Qingtian, thank you, Lord Qingtian." The people were so moved that they wept bitterly.

Although they were temporarily placed outside the city, at least the people in Southern Xinjiang did not drive them back directly.

Soon, a large number of soldiers left the city. They sent out a lot of supplies to keep out the cold, and set up a large pot of porridge at the gate of the city.

These soldiers came out to help resettle the people, and they also came to maintain law and order.

After the governor of Nanjiang County settled here, he rushed towards Qingshui County without stopping.

……

Qingshui County, Prince Chen's Mansion.

Li An and Tian Suanzi sat and played against each other.

"Sir, my king has been feeling uneasy recently. Mister might as well help me figure it out, but what's going to happen?"

Hearing this, Tian Suanzi looked at Li An with a troubled face: "My lord, the fate stars of you and the empress dowager have been shrouded in misty clouds, and I can't see the lord's fate star, so the old man's ability of stargazing and fortune-telling is useless." No more..."

"No, I always feel that you are a bad old man. You have been fooling me from the beginning to the end, and you want to make me take advantage of you as a long-term meal ticket, right?" Li An looked at the fortune teller speechlessly.

Chapter 467

Li An became more and more speechless, and more and more felt that Tian Suanzi was a big fool of Tianzi, bragging about how powerful his fortune-telling skills were every day.

But if you ask him to figure it out, he always uses excuses to prevaricate.

The point is, he eats quite a lot every day. Looking thin and weak, he can eat twice as much as a big man like Lao Wang in one meal...

Facing Li An's words, Tian Suanzi scratched his head in embarrassment.

Of course he is not a charlatan, but he really can't tell Li Ang's fortune now.

If this had been changed before, it is no exaggeration to say that he could have figured out when Li An's grave would be dug up.

But now...

Li An was talking about fortune tellers, when Tian Qi ran in quickly.

"My lord, the governor of Nanjiang County has something important to report, and now he is in the office of the lower official."

Li An frowned slightly, and the governor of Nanjiang County came over in a hurry. He guessed that what he did was probably related to the court.
