Xiao Yi's curtain call performance was not exciting, but it was bloody and cruel enough.He is ruthless to others and ruthless to himself.

Yang Zhong used to hear that Xiao Yi was very filial when he was young.If he had passed away at that time, others would never think that he would have become the rampant and surly person he is now.

These old brothers who have been with Liu Yishou for many years are already used to their master's IQ and EQ online. It is hard to imagine how Wang Sengbian served such a waste as Xiao Yi for such a long time.

It can only be said that the joys and sorrows of people are not the same. I am afraid that Wang Sengbian also has mixed feelings in his heart now.

"Let's bury him in Jiangling, with the honor of a vassal king. In the future, his clothes will be buried in the ancestral land."

Liu Yishou waved his hands in a disinterested manner and said, he didn't even want to pay attention to the identities of those people lying on the ground.No matter what status these people had before, now they only have one status, and that is the dead.

Dead people are not qualified to negotiate treatment and conditions. When people are gone, everything is gone.Except for those who miss you, other people will quickly forget you, as if you never appeared in this world.

When Liu Yishou walked to the gate of the government office, he saw Wang Wei hurriedly leading a scout over.He bowed to Liu Yishou, leaned over and whispered, "Just now Dugu sent a letter to report that Wang Lin was arrested."

Wang Lin!This guy is still alive?

Liu Yishou always thought that he died in the water battle among the rebellious army, who knows how many people are left when a thunderstorm falls, no one is absolutely safe.

"How did you catch it?"

Liu Yishou looked at the scouts beside Wang Wei and said.

The strange-looking scout opened his mouth. He wanted to make a fool of himself, but he was afraid of being held accountable afterwards.So he bowed his hands in embarrassment and said, "Go back to King Wu, this man is extremely cunning, we searched along the Yangtze River for a long time but we didn't find him.

Wang Lin appeared by herself and came to surrender. We did not catch her. "

The scout spoke the truth.

"Do you know what he came back for?"

"Back to the King of Wu, this General Dugu didn't say anything, but Wang Lin has already brought it, and he is currently under strict surveillance in the signing room at the north gate. Please move, my lord, and you will know when the time comes."

This guy Wang Lin actually ran out by himself.

Liu Yishou was also a little curious.You know, there are many brothers under Wang Lin's command, and they have many connections.It is very unlikely that Wang Lin will reorganize the army to fight against the court, and no one will follow him around.

However, if Wang Lin's lackeys wanted to protect him for a few years from being caught by the people of the court, and temporarily avoid the limelight, this was still very easy to do.

"Lead the way."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly.

……

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but Wang Sengbian and Wang Lin were actually locked in the same signing room. Under the guard of the soldiers, the two could not talk, they could only stare wide-eyed, and couldn't find out anything.

When Liu Yishou pushed the door and entered with a group of subordinates, he almost couldn't laugh out loud when he saw this scene.

"Wang Lin, what do you mean by running here now? It seems a little insincere to seek refuge, and it seems too casual to lead the death, which makes me a little confused."

Liu Yishou sighed with emotion.

"May I ask King Wu, King Xiangdong... How is Xiao Yi doing now?"

Wang Lin asked with concern, but did not answer Liu Yishou's question.

"It's nothing, he picked up the sword himself, and then..."

Liu Yishou made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Wang Lin's eyes darkened, she nodded slightly and remained silent.He originally wanted to sneak back to Jiangling, but found that Duguxin was hunting deserters everywhere around Jiangling.Wang Lin simply came out by herself and let Duguxin arrest him. He wanted to see if his nephew and sister in the city were safe.

Wang Lin thought about Liu Yishou's character and character, this kind of person doesn't like to kill innocent people indiscriminately.Wang Lin felt that if she could talk face-to-face with Liu Yishou, it would be absolutely no problem to save his sister's life, and his two nephews could also fight for it.

It's better than doing nothing anyway.

As for Xiao Yi, Wang Lin has given up hope.Anyone with a bit of a brain knows that Xiao Yi, as a game player, has lost all his money in the water battle on the north river of Baling City.

Xiao Yi's ten-year hard work for this naval army doesn't mean that just going to the village to catch a few strong men, and building some new ships will restore their vitality.

"Your Highness, I don't know how my sister and nephew are doing now?"

Wang Lin looked at Liu Yishou anxiously and asked.

"If you mean the few people Xiao Yi killed just now...they must be dead by now."

Xiao Yi killed it?

Wang Lin noticed the details in Liu Yishou's mouth.

"Your Highness is saying...Xiao Yi killed his son and his concubine?"

Wang Lin asked in disbelief.

"Please explain to him." Liu Yishou said to Hu Luxian beside him.

"Presumptuous! What is the status of the king of Wu, is it necessary to deceive you? Afterwards, you can find someone to inquire, can't you find out the situation?"

Hu Luxian glared at Wang Lin and said.

"Xiao Yi probably meant that he was afraid that they would suffer in the world, so before committing suicide, he... you can understand."

Liu Yishou said with a sigh.

After I die, no matter how terrible the flood is.Many people have such thoughts.These people feel that they are born to enjoy themselves, without any sense of responsibility.

Obviously, Xiao Yi is such a selfish person, since I am dead, what does it matter to me whether the world is good or not?My heirs, wives and concubines, to save them from suffering, and to save me from being lonely underground, take them all away.

"It turned out to be like this...it turned out to be like this."

Wang Lin fell to the ground in despair and cried loudly.He still has a wife and children, but his sisters, nephews and so on are all gone.After fighting desperately for Xiao Yi for many years, he finally came to this end.He can't bear it!

Even Wang Sengbian, who was watching the play, couldn't help sighing, scolding Xiao Yi for his heartlessness.Since you want to die, why don't you go quietly and drag your family to die together, what kind of man is this?

"Send these two king generals to Jiankang, let the court decide how to deal with them."

Liu Yishou didn't want to play tricks like recruiting security with Wang Sengbian, Wang Lin and others.Since it represents the center of the imperial court, the rules are the rules.Even if Wang Sengbian, Wang Lin and others were pardoned, Liu Yishou could not make the decision alone.

That's called giving and receiving in private.

Since it is "serving the emperor to ask for disobedience", the process must be completed. The acting that should be acted, the stamp that should be stamped, let the world see that Liu is not domineering and domineering!

When he came to the city wall and looked at the river, Hu Luxian asked calmly and in a low voice: "Master, will you be enthroned this time when you return to Jiankang? Brothers are all looking forward to the master's victory in this battle, where can I sit?" .”

"You all think so?"

Liu Yishou turned his head and asked in doubt.

"My lord, I really think so. Now only Xiao Ji of Shu and Chen Baxian of Guangzhou are left in Liang. And Chen Baxian is also a puppet. In the eyes of the world, the lord is much more orthodox than him. Xiao Jishan is far away from the emperor, and he cannot be found out. What's the matter, if the lord returns to Jiankang this time, if he is not enthroned, when will he wait?"

"Let's go back to Yingzhou first. I will keep the Hu monk to protect Baling County. It will be good to make him the governor of Xiangzhou. Now is the time to go back."

Liu Yishou said with a sigh.If he had usurped the throne so early, it would be nothing more than an enhanced version of Nanchen. The stubborn illnesses of the Southern Dynasty would not have the energy to solve them by then.

In history, the gods from all walks of life in the south did not understand how to govern the Southern Dynasty. On the contrary, the middle Tang Dynasty after the Anshi Rebellion figured out how to develop the South.

Liu Yishou now wants to return to Jiankang to interfere with the court affairs and deal with the adverse effects caused by cutting off the king's lineage in eastern Hunan.Unexpectedly, it was easy for him to come to Jingxiang, but it was difficult to leave.

The rainy season in the south came as scheduled, and the river surged causing the embankment to collapse, and Liu Yishou had to stay in Jiangling to deal with the flood.He ordered Wang Wei to cooperate with Duguxin in Jiangling, and then build a levee at the Yangtze River Port south of Jiangling City, and then divert water for irrigation.

After finally arranging all these things, when he was about to leave Jiangling, Liu Yishou heard a shocking news.

In Wuling County (Changde City) to the west of Dongting Lake, the current is so fast that the Yuanshui River with a height difference of more than 1000 meters soared, directly breaking down the embankment near Linyuan, the county government, and the river poured into the city, submerged five feet above the city!

That is to say, the water level is five feet higher than the city wall, so there is no need to describe the houses in the city.

In other words, Linyuan City was gone, and before that, Fan Yi led troops to guard Linyuan, and cooperated with Wang Sengbian on Dongting Lake.

……

In the study room of the government office in Jiangling City, Liu Yishou was writing a military order. When he saw Wang Wei coming, he handed it to the other party and said, "Transfer the military rations from Yingzhou to Linyuan for disaster relief, and let Wu Mingche take the navy to go Over there to catch people. Save as many as you can.”

Liu Yishou said with a sigh.

Before the Tang Dynasty, there were not many floods in the Yangtze River, but Wuling, that is, Changde, was the hardest hit area with naturally severe floods.Later generations made more and more changes in water control, so that it finally became a flood every two years.

"My lord, these rations are reserved for Chen Baxian! If they are used for disaster relief, we will fall into a passive position!"

Wang Wei became anxious when he heard this!

"The king regards the people as worthless, and the people regard the king as an enemy. We don't treat the disaster victims as human beings, and if something happens, they will not treat us as human beings either.

Needless to say, I will go with Wu Mingche this time, and you should keep an eye on Jiangling.Food needs to be eaten mouthful, and war is very important, but all people in the world still have to live.

They can't make it difficult for the sake of fighting. This account is still easy to calculate. "

Liu Yishou patted Wang Wei on the shoulder and said.

"But my lord, we are benevolent, and Chen Baxian may not be benevolent. Once the court loses the initiative, Chen Baxian will attack Yuzhang first! We have the people of the world in our hearts, but Chen Baxian only wants to win! He doesn't care how many people drown! "

Wang Wei tightly clutched Liu Yishou's cuff.

"Go, people are doing it, and the sky is watching.

The people of Wuling may not know who has the final say in the government, but they must remember the people who helped them at critical moments.As long as it can save people, it's okay to make Chen Ba proud for two days. "

Liu Yishou looked calm, pointed to the top of his head with his finger and said.

Chapter 581 is the stream of the world, Changde will never leave

A soaked and swollen corpse passed by the side of the boat.A mouse stood on the corpse, whimpering and calling, this scene made people's scalp tingle.

On the big tree with its top branches protruding from the water next to it, a raccoon cat covered in water, clutching the branches tightly, meowed hoarsely at the people on the boat.

Someone on the Haifeng wanted to pull the boat over to save the cat, but after looking at the floating corpses everywhere in the water and thinking about the terrible plague, he finally resisted the urge to ask.

Standing on the deck of the Gale, Liu Yishou looked pale.

He is not hard-hearted, and he can't deal with this situation indifferently.In fact, he was considered to have a strong concentration, and many sailors on the ship did not know how many times they vomited.The sheep ginger vomited so much that bile would come out.

Fleets transporting food and disaster relief set off from Jiangling and Yingzhou to Wuling County in the disaster area for relief, but no local officials could be found.

Linyuan City, the prefecture, was already under the water, and Liu Yishou could only see the spiers of the city wall from the Gale, and even most of the government offices were underwater.

If it weren't for these few iconic things standing there, Liu Yishou wouldn't doubt it at all if others said it was a lake.But under this "lake" full of sand, there is a city "hidden"!

Not long ago, there were still many people living here, and Fan Yi even wanted to use this city to bring Xiao Yi over to resist!

"Your Highness, there is a mound to the east, and there may be survivors on it, why don't you take someone to see it?" Hu Luxian whispered in Liu Yishou's ear, for fear that the other party would get angry.

"Well, let's go. Remember to wear a mask... just cover your mouth and nose with a cloth, and wash your hands with boiled water when you come back."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly and said, let the Haifeng ship put down a small boat, and Hu Luxian took the two Luodiao soldiers to row the boat to the hill.

Standing behind him, Fan Yi didn't understand why Liu Yishou brought him along this time, and he was still on the same boat.Looking at this posture now, he knows what's going on.

"Fan Yi, I want to ask you, when you were in Linyuan, how was Linyuan's embankment, river course, and lake? Did you really not hear the wind? Don't you have any money?"

Liu Yishou turned around, stared into Fan Yi's eyes and asked, with a bad tone.

This question is not easy to answer.

Loyalty is a very subjective question, and there is a lot of room for sophistry. It is usually said that the public is right and the woman is right.If Liu Yishou asked this question, Fan Yi could fool him.

But what about the river course, what about the embankment, what about the flood, these are very real issues, and it is very easy to find circumstantial evidence, and telling lies is courting death.

"Master, I have indeed heard about it... No, it should be said that I know quite a lot."

Fan Yi said with a wry smile, not daring to raise his head to meet Liu Yishou's gaze.

"Not too little? You said it so easily! You looked at the corpses floating on the water, patted your chest and told me, do these people's deaths really have nothing to do with you? Do you dare? Look me in the eyes and talk!"

Liu Yishou roared at Fan Yi.

Yang Jiang, who was pretending to be a soldier, was startled, she had never seen Liu Yishou get so angry.In other words, I have never seen Liu Yishou so fierce before.

"Since you know the condition of the embankment is not good, and the river embankment is about to burst when the summer flood comes, why don't you evacuate the people in advance? Even if you say something in advance, will this time the embankment burst and drown so many people!"

Liu Yishou drew out the Shansheng sword and put it on Fan Yi's shoulder, furious.

"Your Highness, your benevolence and righteousness are unparalleled, and the general admires you very much."

Fan Yi raised his head and saluted Liu Yishou with his hands clasped.

"However, the last general is just a soldier who eats food. He has only been there for more than a month. Apart from commanding his troops to fight, the last general held Xiao Yi's military order in his hand at that time. There is really no extra penny to use. Elsewhere, there is no way to get involved in local power.

The imperial court has not allocated money to repair the embankment and dig ditches for many years, and the embankment is gradually collapsing. This is not something I can change.

The first emperor was lazy in governing, did not revise the government guidelines, local government affairs were in a mess, and the Linyuan embankment had not been repaired for decades. Is it strange that it burst?

Xiao Yi wants to fight against the imperial court, and needs the assistance of the people to defend the city, not to mention letting them disperse and seek refuge separately, even if they want to escape from the county, they must be arrested again.

Now the imperial court wants the Northern Expedition, suppresses rebellion, opens canals, and spends money everywhere.Now it takes money to build river embankments, and I, Fan Yi, can't change the money. Even if I ransack my family, I can't squeeze out much money. Using the money from ransacking to build river embankments is useless.

His Highness feels powerless in the face of this torrential river, but what can he do in the end?This is the fault of heaven, the fault of the world!The world is unkind and treats everything as a straw dog, so what can I do!
