Zhu Youxiao was not killed by the disease, but he was almost frightened to death by the number of deaths in the capital.

Three hundred and seventy thousand!

A total of 370,000 people!

In fact, from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty when Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang founded the Ming Dynasty, the war-torn Shuntian Mansion only had a population of hundreds of thousands.

After Emperor Yongle Zhu Di moved the capital to the capital, he relocated a large number of people to recuperate.

In a blink of an eye, it lasted more than two hundred years.

By the Wanli period, the people in the inner and outer cities of the capital, plus the Imperial Guards and the Twenty-Four Guards, had a total population of at least one million.

Millions of people.

What a huge number, a direct reduction of 370,000, more than one-third!

And, this is not a cold number, but one human life after another.

It was because of his own lack of morality and failure to listen to Feng Lixin that this tragedy occurred.

Zhu Youxiao gasped again in excitement, feeling that it would be better to die immediately than face this fact.

But he didn't dare to die.

After death, how to face the 370,000 innocent souls.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, don't be sentimental. Everything is fate, everything is destiny, and it has nothing to do with your Majesty..."

Wei Zhongxian knew that Zhu Youxiao would not be able to hold on after learning the specific number of people, so he hurriedly comforted him.

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and lay back again. His eyes were dull. After a long silence, he exhaled.

"Dad companion... draft an edict to blame yourself. The fault of the capital belongs to me alone. If the country is peaceful and the people are safe, I can remove the disaster to save all the countries. This is what I want, and I am willing to do so..."

"His Majesty!"

Wei Zhongxian's heart broke when he heard Zhu Youxiao's words.

Although until now, no one understands why such a natural disaster occurs.

But Wei Zhongxian understands.

Most of them were caused by myself.

If it weren't for his eunuchs running rampant, killing loyal ministers, plundering and massacring the people, how could he have made God angry?

But now, Zhu Youxiao took the blame alone, making him burst into tears without gratitude.

"Stop talking about it, Omate! Just do it like this."

Zhu Youxiao's eyes were blank and he waved his hand again.

"I'm tired. You must be tired too. Go home and rest."

Wei Zhongxian's face was full of bitterness after hearing this.

Why go home?

Our Wei Mansion was also half collapsed in this disaster and was in a mess.

Even Ke Yinyue's beaker was almost smashed to death.

If it were normal, he would definitely complain to the little emperor and beg for some gold and silver from his own funds to rebuild the 9,000-year-old government office.

But now I can no longer say these words.

The treasury was empty and the internal funds were empty. Especially after a natural disaster, the Ming Empire became increasingly weak.

Besides going to the national disaster with Zhu Youxiao, what other choice does he have?

Unexpectedly, after the little emperor became seriously ill this time, he didn't even ask about Ke Yinyue's condition.

His character has quietly undergone earth-shaking changes.

"Minister, take the order..."

After Wei Zhongxian kowtowed three times, he turned around and left.

Unexpectedly, he just turned around.

"Big companion!"

Zhu Youxiao called him again.

"What else does your Majesty have to do?"

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Zhongxian tiredly and showed a gentle smile.

"Is there any money left in the internal funds? If so, please allocate one hundred thousand taels to Feng Lixin."

"Ok?"

Wei Zhongxian was stunned and didn't understand why he should allocate money to Feng Lixin.

Is it to reward him for warning of natural disasters?

Why should I give you as much as one hundred thousand taels?

Zhu Youxiao said: "I feel that I won't live long."

"Tell Taibao Feng that I am sorry for him and for his remonstrance to the death that day..."

"Ninety thousand taels of it will be used to reward him and the soldiers who came to the city to provide disaster relief."

"With the remaining ten thousand taels, let him build my imperial mausoleum as soon as possible. I don't have much time left and I don't want to be homeless after my death..."

"His Majesty!"

Wei Zhongxian couldn't help the excitement in his heart any longer, so he knelt down and cried loudly.

We, what evil have we done!

……

Just when Wei Zhongxian was determined to build the imperial mausoleum for Zhu Youxiao even if he used his own small treasury.

On the official road to Tianshou Mountain, two fast horses were galloping.

The two have different identities. One is wearing coarse linen clothes and has a slender figure. He looks majestic while riding a horse.

Even though he was wearing coarse linen clothes, he still had a look of defiance on his face.

It's just that occasionally there is a bit of scorn between his eyebrows and eyes.

An extremely long Miao knife hangs at hand, and it seems that he can draw the knife to hurt someone at any time.

He is Ding Xiu, the successor of the Qi Family Sword who has just entered Beijing.

The other person is wearing the uniform of Jinyiwei Baihu. He is young, handsome, and extraordinarily heroic.

Even though he was galloping on horseback, his back was still straight and his posture remained intact.

His pseudonym is Zhu Xin, but his real identity is the current king of Xin, Zhu Youjian.

Along the way, both of them were worried.

Especially Zhu Youjian, he has been really annoyed to death recently.

After the explosion, he had an idea and asked Lu Wenzhao to enter the palace to assassinate his eldest brother Zhu Youxiao, and asked Ding Baiying to assassinate his nephew Zhu Cijiong.

If successful, he would already be the master of the empire.

But he didn't want to both fail and even lose Ding Baiying's life.

Something happened to Ding Baiying, which made him break out in cold sweat. He was really afraid that his eldest brother and Wei Zhongxian would find out something was wrong.

Fortunately, Lu Wenzhao lived up to his ruthlessness and killed his junior sister with his own hands, completely getting rid of the suspicion.

Coupled with the fact that his eldest brother had fainted and Wei Zhongxian was undressed, no one had bothered to investigate the matter thoroughly for half a month.

This also gave Zhu Youjian a chance to wipe his ass.

For more than ten days, all those who deserved to be killed were silenced, and all those who deserved to be silenced also disappeared.

He even wanted to kill Lu Wenzhao at one point, but unfortunately it would be too obvious if this person died.

In desperation, they had no choice but to arrange for Lu Wenzhao to temporarily stay at home due to illness and wait until he was out of the limelight.

The only thing worth laughing about is that although Ding Baiying died, he gave himself several peerless masters before he died.

Especially the Ding Xiu next to him, his martial arts skills are simply unparalleled, the only one he has ever seen in his life.

This really gave him a lot more confidence in what he was going to do next.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at Tianshou Mountain, Zhu Youjian thought for a while and spoke softly.

"Ding Xiu!"

"The villain is here."

Ding Xiu rode his horse closer to King Xin and bowed his head in response.

At the same time, my heart was full of mixed emotions.

After his master died, he was completely devastated.

I originally thought that after avenging my master, I would wander around the world from then on.

However, Queen Zhang was in the harem and had no chance to take action.

In desperation, he had no choice but to become a disciple of King Xin and look for opportunities.

At this moment, he finally became what others call the imperial eagle dog.

However, he does not want to hold an official position, and only wants to accept the punishment as an idler.

"You...do you know what I am going to do this time?"

Zhu Youjian asked softly after a moment of silence.

Ding Xiu grinned when he heard this.

"Visit Feng Lixin and apologize to him personally, so that he will no longer complain about what His Highness did that day."

Zhu Youjian became even more happy when he saw that this guy was bright and smart.

"Oh? What if he is determined not to forgive Gu?"

Ding Xiu's eyes showed murderous intent, he held down the Miao Dao in his hand and said only two words.

"Kill him!"
