"Yiyi and the others will be back in a few days. Then you go out with them more and keep a good attitude."
"But Your Majesty, the world is uncertain, and I want to help Your Majesty." Long Ningshuang raised her head to meet Li An's gaze.
Li An stretched out his hand and scratched her nose: "You are pregnant now, don't mess around, be obedient, be good."
As he spoke, Li An placed his warm palms on Long Ningshuang's smooth belly, stroking gently.
Long Ningshuang blushed and nodded.
She was also recently diagnosed with pregnancy, which is good news, and she couldn't wait to share this good news with Liu Yiyi and Su Yu.
……
Time passed, and a few days passed in a blink of an eye.
The surface is calm, but there is an undercurrent surging in the dark.
The older and more old Li Xu's army left the camp privately and disappeared without a trace.
Li An's side is also secretly moving troops to various places, and Li Wan'er's side is also taking action, and is intensively carrying out war reserves to ensure that the people's livelihood can be guaranteed to a certain extent when the war starts.
early morning.
"Your Majesty, it has been raining heavily in Jinling for three consecutive days, and many villages and towns have been flooded." A minister anxiously reported the situation.
"Your Majesty, there has been a severe drought in Moyang for three days, and the crops in the field have all been sunburned and withered."
"Your Majesty, there are many places along the river..."
"There are many places in Luoyang...the people died and injured countless times."
With a series of disaster reports, the year of catastrophe came suddenly!
Chapter 486
Li An listened calmly to the ministers' reports of the disaster. Just like what Tian Suanzi said, after he ascended the throne, the disaster has spread from southern Xinjiang to all parts of the country.
While I am shuffling the cards, is God also shuffling the cards?
While reporting the situation of the disaster, the ministers carefully looked at Li An.
Nowadays, there is a rumor among the people that the reason why natural disasters broke out all over the country is because Li An ascended the throne but did not sacrifice to heaven.
This is God's punishment for Li Ang.
But so far, they dare not tell this rumor to Li An, for fear that Li An will start to kill in anger.
It wasn't that he was worried that Li An would kill those people who spread rumors, but he was worried that he would be implicated.
It's just that these ministers didn't expect that maybe these weren't rumors at all?
Although the intentional people really aimed to spread rumors about Li An, they hit the right one.
"Since there is a disaster, it is natural to provide disaster relief and ensure people's livelihood first." Li An said lightly.
"But Your Majesty, the national treasury has been squandered by Li Xu's militarism."
"There is no money in the national treasury, and I will transfer food from southern Xinjiang. You don't have to worry about money, you just need to relieve the disaster."
"By the way, don't blame me for not reminding you. Who dares to take advantage of the disaster relief and take advantage of the opportunity? Don't blame your nine clans for scolding you." Li An said coldly.
"Ah?" The ministers froze for a moment, but didn't react for a while.
But soon they heard the implication of Li An's words, and cold sweat dripped from their foreheads.
What Li An meant was that whoever dares to do something about disaster relief will punish the Nine Clans.
They knew that Li An could really do it.
"Your Majesty, we naturally won't be tricky about disaster relief, and we will definitely restrain our people. However, Your Majesty, although southern Xinjiang is rich, this is a nationwide natural disaster..."
Yes, no matter how rich you are in southern Xinjiang, it is impossible to rely on a single county to support the people of a country.
"You don't need to worry about this, just start to do it and retreat."
"Respectfully send off my emperor." The ministers knelt on the ground.
But after kneeling for a long time, Li An didn't get up and leave.
The minister knelt for a long time before carefully looking up at Li An: "Your Majesty, aren't you going to retreat?"
"So, what are you guys doing here? Why are you going? The palace doesn't care about food." Li An waved his hands impatiently.
The ministers looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a while.
How can the ministers go first before the emperor retreats?
But after Li An said so, the ministers had no choice but to stand up cautiously, bowed again, saluted, and retreated slowly.
Li Xin didn't follow. After the ministers all retreated, he looked at Li An suspiciously: "Brother, are you going to attack them?"
Li An has been very diligent in ordering these ministers recently, that's why Li Xin asked this question.
"Although these people are not easy to use, they can be used first." Li An smiled and looked at Li Xin: "They are the fuse for me to start a war with the gentry, and it's not time to ignite the fuse yet."
"Oh." Li Xin nodded, and then asked worriedly: "Brother, now the whole country is suffering from natural disasters. I don't know when it will end. I don't know if your southern border can withstand it?"
"If you can't stand it, you have to do it." Li An sighed, "I still have other backers, I hope I can make it through.
Brother, after this war is over, the world will truly be peaceful.
You said that this thief is playing like this, do you think it is overpopulated? "
Li An remembered hearing a sentence before, saying that the war was only to solve the problem of overpopulation.
It's just that he didn't feel that Dahua's population was overpopulated.
First he fought with the Rong people, and then Li Xu ascended the throne and killed a large number of people.
I fought with Li Xu again, and there were not many people left in this population.
Of course, this is not much, just as a comparison with the past.
Li Xin kept shaking his head. He couldn't figure out such a profound question, so he simply didn't think about it.
Anyway, he will hit wherever the elder brother points, just one word, do it!
As for the real balance of the world that Li An said, he is skeptical. Will the world really be balanced?
Since ancient times, has there ever been true world peace?
It is estimated that it depends on how to define the balance of the world.
"By the way, Yiyi and the others should be arriving soon, right?" Li An asked casually.
"Well, Concubine Long Gui has already left the palace to pick her up, and she should be back soon."
"Oh, another day of missing Yiyi." Li An sighed.
Li Xin was full of helplessness, the elder brother was still the original elder brother, so lustful.
For an emperor, it's not right, it's not right.
Li Xin complained from the bottom of his heart, and soon got a supercilious look from Li An.
"Go back when you're free, don't think I don't know what's on your mind?"
"Brother, do you know what I'm thinking?" Li Xin's pupils dilated.
"You don't have a wife, you don't understand my suffering, why don't you stay cool, the emperor can't miss his wife?" Li An gave Li Xin a hard look.
Li Xin's pupils dilated, his mouth opened slightly, I'll go, my eldest brother really knows what's in his heart.
With an embarrassing expression on his face, Li Xin nodded again and again: "Well, big brother, I stayed where I was so cool. I originally said that I would drink with you tonight, so I won't enter the palace tonight. You and sister-in-law Let's catch up on the old days."
"Didn't you stop drinking?" Li An frowned slightly, a little upset.
He planned to leave the throne to Li Xin after the last big vote, and he didn't want Li Xin to be like a drunkard.
Otherwise, as he joked with the old emperor before, the ministers were arguing with each other below, and he drank his own on the dragon chair, and he would treat it as a world-famous painting to add to the fun, and it would really be presented.
Hearing this, Li Xin blinked and glanced at Li An, then scratched the back of his head in embarrassment: "Well, brother, I just said it casually, after I almost drank to death at your place last time, I seldom drink alcohol. "
Li An glanced at Li Xin, sighed, got up and came to Li Xin, put his hand on his shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Young man, you have a great responsibility for the future!"
"Ah?" Li Xin blinked: "Isn't there still you, big brother?"
"While going, you don't pay me a salary, why should I work for you." After speaking, Li An put his hands behind his back and walked away quickly.
Yiyi will be back soon, and he is going to wash Xiangxiang.
……
Long Ningshuang went out of the palace to meet Liu Yiyi and the others, but she didn't like too many complicated rules, so she didn't let the maids accompany her.
Still as free and easy as before, one man and one horse.
Walking, suddenly, a bright light dazzled Long Ningshuang's eyes, and a sharp weapon flew towards Long Ningshuang quickly.
Long Ningshuang easily dodged with a lower waist, and at the same time reached out to catch the hidden weapon.
Standing up slowly, Long Ningshuang looked in one direction with a cold expression.
In the alley, a masked woman in red looked at Long Ningshuang.
Without saying much, the woman turned and disappeared into the alley.
After a little thought, Long Ningshuang still followed.
Chapter 487
Long Ningshuang pushed open the dusty and dilapidated door of an old house with no one in it and walked in.
In the courtyard, the woman in red turned her back to Long Ningshuang, staring at the collapsed house in a daze.
"Who are you to lead me here, why?" Long Ningshuang asked coldly, looking around secretly, making sure that there were no other people around.
Hearing this, the woman turned around slowly and looked at Long Ningshuang.
Suddenly, the woman knelt down towards Long Ningshuang: "The matchmaker, I have seen the imperial concubine!"
"Matchmaker?" Long Ningshuang frowned slightly, feeling like she had heard this name before?
The matchmaker seemed to be aware of Long Ningshuang's doubts, took off the mask, and smiled at her: "The matchmaker was the maidservant of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and she once had a relationship with the imperial concubine on the Queen Mother's birthday!"
Long Ningshuang's pupils dilated slightly, and she remembered that this woman was the one who was always by Li Fu's side.
"What do you want with me?"
"The matchmaker wants to ask the lady to help me kill someone." The matchmaker's eyes turned cold, and her eyes were full of murderous intent.
"Kill?" Long Ningshuang frowned: "Kill who?"
"Li Xu!" The matchmaker clenched her fists: "The matchmaker begs the empress to kill Li Xu for me. Now Li Xu's mansion is surrounded by heavy soldiers, and no one else can enter his mansion except the empress."
Want to kill Li Xu?
Long Ningshuang frowned, looked at Hong Niang: "Why did you kill him?"
"Because he killed His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince." The matchmaker bit her lips until they turned white.
"Li Fu was killed by Li Xu?" Long Ningshuang was shocked.
Although there have always been rumors in Beijing that the Fourth Prince Li Fu was killed by Li Xu.
But everyone knows that Li Fu was transferred to the northern border by the imperial decree, and the people in the city watched him lead the army to leave the capital, so there was no evidence at all.
Moreover, on the night of Li Fu's accident, the Beibei Army was indeed attacked.
At that time, Long Xing was also in the army, but at that time, someone came to set fire to the camp in the dark, and then fled quickly.
Long Xing and the others failed to catch up with the camp attackers, and before he could investigate the battle damage, an imperial decree was sent to the camp, sending him to rush to the grassland to fend off the enemy.
So, even though he went out with Li Fu, he didn't know exactly how Li Fu died.
When he led the army to the grassland, he happened to meet Jin Ge. Hearing that the capital had changed, he and Jin Ge went back to the capital together.
By the time they returned to the capital, Li Fu had already been buried.
Everyone said that Li Fu died in the sneak attack of the grassland tribe!
The matchmaker nodded affirmatively, and told the story of Li Fu noticing that there was a change in the palace that night, and led the army back to the capital to rescue King Qin.
"Your Majesty should know that during the time of the first emperor, His Highness has already transferred out the treasury's silver taels, and their whereabouts are still unknown. The slaves happen to know where the silver taels are. As long as the empress helps me kill Li Xu, the slaves will tell the whereabouts of those silver taels." Inform the empress.
