Liu Weizhiwo stayed awake all night in the side room, thinking to himself how many months it would take to leave the fiefdom.

I was already so busy with the disaster victims, and with the even more troublesome King Jing, I really don't know how long I can stretch my nerves.

Xia Jingyu sneered and played with the various ornaments in the house, and muttered in a disgusted tone, "Little sour, you are only 30 years old, and you are like an old man, but you are so rare about some broken books and ancient paintings..."

Thinking about gently unfolding the folding fan in his hand, Xia Jingyu admired it, and then put it back to the original place, thinking that Liu Weizhi is pretty good in everything, but he is too dumb, and his rigid eyes are as boring as a piece of wood, but it is precisely because of this, It's fun to tease.

In the ruling and opposition parties, the generals are rude, the civil servants are treacherous, and there are few honest officials who are either too upright or as stubborn as a stone in a latrine.

There are too many young and strong factions, and it is not suitable to participate in core political affairs if the city government is not deep.Those important ministers in front of the nephew of the emperor, apart from forming cliques, they acted on their own. If it weren't for the fact that no one was available, Xia Jingyu wouldn't be able to make trouble with these old people.

Hey~ Heaven is about to send a great mission to people, so they must first work hard and be extremely bored, so that he can find such an interesting guy to relieve his boredom!

This time I went to Jingzhou to receive the fief, firstly because this place was the hardest hit area, and secondly because Liu Weizhi happened to work here.

The emperor's nephew felt that the New Deal was difficult, and he was afraid that his uncle would be the target of public criticism, so he was sent to the fiefdom to avoid the limelight. When the disaster was far away, the dissatisfaction of the courtiers could be drawn to the east, and he would not be too resistant to the implementation of the New Deal.

Every time the interests of the rich and powerful were involved, these old officials would jump out and make trouble. If Xia Jingyu hadn't jumped up and down to divert his attention, these poor and boring old people would definitely run to the emperor to seek death and life.

Xia Jingyu is not an idle prince, how could he be so idle?Going to the old minister's house all day long and talking about it, just to disturb the peace of the family, and have no mind to pay attention to the implementation of the New Deal.

Any outdated national policy that hinders the development of Daxia is the driving force for the uncle and nephew to reform. Daxia is not only the world of the Xia family, but also a country that millions of people depend on for survival.Just to satisfy the interests of a few people and refuse to ignore the fate of the entire Great Xia, it is not only against the Xia family, but also against the people of the world.

The two uncles and nephews who have the same thoughts are really devoting their minds to the peace of the country and the people, but even if they are diligent in government affairs day and night, they cannot resist the coming of natural disasters.

Just one drought will delay the development of the National Games for three years.

The national treasury is empty. For Daxia, which is surrounded by powerful enemies, it is as dangerous as walking on a single-plank bridge.Be prepared for danger in times of peace, natural disasters are not to be feared, and people who are united will eventually be able to survive hand in hand, but sometimes man-made disasters are beyond our power. Once the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, no one can live in peace, from the dignitaries in the court to the common people.

Before the founding of Daxia, there were seven years of war, and the people lived in dire straits and turmoil.Ordinary people have been baptized by the flames of war, and the people are devastated.If the ancestors hadn't felt the appeal of the people and led their families to rise up, until they conquered a large area of ​​the country, the people of one side could live in peace.

Xia Jingyu doesn't want to be famous in history, but only wants to see the prosperity of the Great Xia country and the prosperity of the people in her lifetime.

Born in misery and dying in peace, as long as the heirs of the emperor's nephew are not stupid, they will be able to fulfill their wishes that they failed to achieve in this life one by one in the future.

Looking forward to the future, Fang Shi's uncle and nephew have worked hard so far. They have only taken the most difficult first step. As long as they persevere and carry out the legacy of their ancestors, it will not be difficult to return a happy, peaceful and prosperous era to the people of the world.

Such a grand idea seems nonsense, but as long as you don't give up your expectations, it will come true one day.

The emperors of the Xia family never forgot their origins, nor did they forget those heroes who followed their ancestors in the founding of the country. Just to achieve their original intentions, they had to pull out moths and cut off carrion. The kindness of the first emperor couldn't bear to kill the descendants of those heroes. , Wouldn't it be a sacrifice to survive?Subvert the foundation of the country?

Xia Jingyu let out a long sigh, and was taught by his father, Huang Chunchun, the Xia family's ancestors since childhood, this is the baptism that every son of the Xia family must accept from birth.It is possible that there are very few people who insist on the original intention not to be swayed by the world, and when it is passed on to the nephew's generation, it will set off a bloody storm like nine sons seizing the heir.

Disregarding the legacy of the ancestors, brothers fought against each other. If the father and the emperor did not fight against all opinions, the position of emperor might not have fallen into the hands of a cruel nephew.

Recalling the three years of internal troubles, Xia Jingyu was haunted by the shadows of her childhood nightmares again and again. When she thought of being worried about being the successor of the old emperor by her relatives, she had to be terrified and suspicious of every servant who was close to her.

I can't eat, I can't sleep, I don't want to repeat my son's three years of walking on thin ice.He was always the late emperor's most beloved son. Now that the descendants of the Xia family are dying, there are still countless veterans in the dark who place their hope on orthodoxy, trying to pull the tiger's skin to pull the banner, overthrow the emperor's nephew, and plan for the dwindling rights.

If it wasn't for the wholeheartedness of the uncle and nephew, I'm afraid those slanderous words would be enough to separate them.If uncles and nephews turn against each other, they will fall into the hands of rebellious officials and thieves.

For the sake of personal interests, loyal ministers sometimes become sycophants. No one can guarantee that the growing power will not incite people's hearts. Only by consolidating the imperial power can we prevent people with ulterior motives from taking advantage of their suspicions to divide the Great Xia.

Xia Jingyu got married at the age of 17 and hadn't given birth to a son and a half daughter in ten years. The plan was to prevent all possible opportunities.For this reason, the emperor's nephew also lamented that he was born in the royal family, and many things are beyond his control.There are three thousand beauties in the harem, how many women can let him sleep peacefully?It is even more congenial to talk about giving birth to the future crown prince with her Luanfeng Heming.

But it was not what he wanted to see my uncle sacrificed so far for imperial power.Jing Yu was so smart when she was young, but today, except that she still disagrees with him, she is no longer as simple and caring as she was when she was young.

In addition to supporting the New Deal as always, it seemed that he lived to fulfill the Xia family's ancestors' precepts and live up to the late emperor's last words.If it hadn't been for the three-point childishness in front of the emperor's grandmother, even he would not have dared to recognize this thoughtful and ruthless Jing Yu.

In the early morning of the second day, Liu Weizhi got up and greeted him outside the door. The coldness of the winter morning is not something that can be resisted by a jacket.

After receiving the cloak handed over by the servant, Liu Weizhi waved back a group of servants, standing proudly like a green bamboo.

Xia Jingyu had a nightmare all night, and when she woke up, she rubbed her forehead and moaned in a daze.If it weren't for his clear eyes, who would have guessed that this appearance is someone who has been alert since the beginning of Liu Weizhi?

Swinging back the little slave who was kneeling in front of the steps, Xia Jingyu slipped to the window tightly in her single clothes, glanced at Liu Weizhi, then climbed back to the bed and slept soundly with her head covered.

With this little stubborn guarding outside, it was rare for Xia Jingyu to fall back into sleep, and when she woke up, it was already past the time to get up, she couldn't help laughing at herself, and stood up to be seen.

Liu Weizhi was frozen outside for a full hour, and when he entered the door, he slandered the bastard prince.

Yesterday I ordered you to see me early, and now I am snoozing until this hour, if it is not deliberately making things difficult, what else can it be?But who made him a prince?As a mere class of courtier, I can only obediently obey orders, and even if I am wronged, I can only endure it secretly...

Taking off the cloak and handing it to the servant, Liu Weizhi knelt down to salute respectfully, until King Jing waved his hand lazily and said "Excuse me" before he dared to get up and stand tall.

Jing Wangan, who was wearing a ferret cloak, sat on the seat, holding a cup of tonic and sucking loudly.

Liu Weizhi came to pay his respects even though breakfast was useless, his stomach was already buzzing, and seeing King Jing surrounded by a circle of snow-white sable fur, he was as graceful and luxurious as a noble lady, and he couldn't help but secretly sneered, "No matter how good the skin is!" It’s nothing but empty words”

Gently tapping the table with his long and slender fingers, King Jing called back the mediocre official a little impatiently.Liu Weizhi hurriedly withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes to report the recent disaster situation to the prince.

He has long heard that the disaster situation in Jingzhou is severe, but seeing is believing. He has been shocked by the tragic situation all the way and frowned frequently. If he was not anxious, how could he allow his subordinates to run horses in the city?

I carefully counted the disaster situation in Jingzhou, and asked if there was a solution.

Liu Weizhi perfected Chen Qing's strategy and decided with the lord, only to see that the man who was frowning just now raised his eyebrows and curled his lips, and said jokingly, "Oh? So you are not really stupid, are you?"

Liu Weizhi tried his best to swallow the scolding he wanted to say with a stick in his throat, and secretly warned himself that this is King Jing, he is the prince...

The corners of Xia Jingyu's mouth widened and widened, and finally the corners of his lips tightened boredly, muttering to himself "boring..."

This whisper-like whisper was captured by the sharp-eared Liu Weizhi, who twitched his forehead and gritted his teeth to endure it, gaining wisdom from a fall. If he is so stupid as to make fun of others for nothing, then he is really stupid...

"If that's the case, there is no need to worry about it. Just let the wind out and say that this king is here to ask the people in the city to fight against the famine. If the wealthy households in the city donate generously, this king will definitely choose a day for a banquet..." Xia Jingyu's order of charity did not wait. After finishing speaking, Liu Weizhi frowned frequently due to his lofty attitude.

Even if he is a prince, acting like this will only attract villains who are stalking others. The rich family naturally disdains such favors, so how can they donate their property for nothing just to show themselves in front of the prince?Killing a donkey is not just a common trick of the royal family, the wealthy family is even more thoughtful and understands the usefulness of this method. It is too late to cover it up. How can they be so stupid as to put their family fortune in front of the prince?

"This method is inappropriate. King Jing is a prince, and he cannot lower his status to sit with the common people. According to the officials, he only needs to borrow the prince to rest in the fief..." Liu Weizhi thought about his words for a moment before he began to think about persuasion road.

Xia Jingyu touched her forehead lightly, tilted her head and sighed helplessly, "Forget it, since you care about the victims, you will be spared the crime of dereliction of duty. Just do as you said. In three days, the king will see 50 Ten thousand taels of disaster relief silver"

50 taels?Thanks to his daring to speak out!This prince who doesn't know the sufferings of the world must spend tens of thousands of dollars in money. The imperial court allocated funds for a state and only gave two to three hundred thousand taels. King Jing asked for 30 taels as soon as he exported it. Even if the wealthy households in the city were willing to donate, they would not Donate this much money for nothing.

Those who have a lot of money in their families and are willing to donate and ask for rewards are mostly merchants, scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen. Wouldn't it damage the reputation of the prince if the last class of untouchables were allowed to enter the house?Even if there is a reason for the matter, it is an expedient measure, and it is a bad idea to invite the untouchables to discuss together. In the end, you will have to blame him for his poor handling of affairs, and just introduce merchants and others for the prince.

Liu Weizhi thought that in the future in Jingzhou City, everyone would think that King Daojing would sacrifice his status to raise money with the untouchables, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.But apart from wealthy households, where would he go to raise such a large sum of money?

Seeing the cold sweat of the little stubborn being embarrassing, King Jing slightly curled his lips in a good mood. His reputation has long been abandoned by him, and this guy still sticks to his duty and cares about his reputation. It can be said that he has devoted himself to Da Xia.

It's hard for a loyal minister to be so heartless, Xia Jingyu deserves the word stubborn.

Knowing that the matter has been decided, Liu Weizhi took the order in a low voice and went to worry about raising money.Rather than reasoning with this stubborn prince, it is better to seek a solution in private. It is better to worry than to argue with this guy. In the end, other than making trouble for no reason, it will only end in a useless end.

Chen Qing rushed back to Qingping County overnight. As soon as he entered the city, he received the latest news from Hezhi County.

"How did the county confiscate Liao Ji's property?" Chen Qing hurriedly discussed with Liang Zixian while walking.

"Exactly, most of the people who have deposited silver taels in Liao Ji are outraged and dare not speak out, wandering around the gate of the yamen all day to ask for news." Liang Zixian was even more worried about whether Chen Qing would make a difference here.Knowing that Mr. Liu is willing to come forward to reply to the letter, I am pleasantly surprised. As long as it can be delayed until the next year, the Jingli branch will definitely spare people to excuse Zijun.

When Chen Qing returned to the old house, he washed off his tired body first, then hurriedly swallowed a few mouthfuls of food and rushed to ask someone to visit the prison.

The jailer took Chen Qing to meet privately as the prison boss, and he was able to go all the way smoothly after stuffing a lot of money.

The further you go in, the more turbid the air is, and the smell of urine and rot and mildew merge, how can the stench be described?Chen Qing frowned and covered her mouth and nose lightly. If she hadn't gone deep into the cell, how could she know about the disaster of the prison?

The chest was so choking and coughing by the turbid air. Seeing that Chen Qing could endure it, the cell chief smiled and praised, "We have been working here for many years to get used to the smell. Many new guards vomit as soon as they come in, tsk tsk ~Who is willing to go deep into this death row if he is not forced to?"

Chen Qing bowed and took two quick steps, not forgetting to flatter and perfunctory a few words until he reached the end, before he had to point out, "Young Master Liao and his family are divided into places, and time is limited. smoke for a while"

"Then thank you, sir." Chen Qing handed the burden behind his back to the prisoner, tightened the cloth bag in his arms, and begged softly, "Time is tight and I didn't make more preparations. If women and children have any needs, I will forget you." Run twice more, if the money is not enough, just send someone to ask for it."

The cell boss took the 100 taels of silver bills and accepted it with a smile.The left and right are just eating utensils and running a few more legs. For the 100 taels, no one dares to ask if he doesn't say it.

After thanking the jailer, Chen Qing quickly walked a few steps, grabbed the fence and called Liao Fanzhi softly.

There was an occasional bleak wind in the sinister cell, and Chen Qing's hair stood on end in shock. A death row prisoner happened to be imprisoned next door, and he approached the fence cursingly, asking Chen Qing for food.

Chen Qing turned his head and tried to see the man's face clearly, his heart skipped a beat, how could this haggard, ragged guy look human at all?Neither human nor ghost is a compliment to that humanoid monster.

The condemned prisoner had been locked up for several years, and he was so mad that he couldn't tell the time. He asked Chen Qing what year it was now, and asked him if he had brought any food.

Not seeing the sun all year round and regardless of the years, no matter how rational a person is, it is hard not to be locked up. Apart from the desire for food, the rest is only the yearning for freedom.

Chen Qing couldn't help reaching out to the cloth bag, trying to take out a steamed bun and hand it to him.There was a faint blocking sound coming from Yin Cece's cage, and Chen Qing was so frightened that he shook his hands, trying not to crush the freshly steamed steamed buns.

The light was dim, and Chen Qing couldn't see the surrounding things clearly. He only vaguely felt that there was a dark mass in the cage struggling for a long time before he moved to the front. He gasped and said weakly, "I can't give it. I gave one. It can break people's ears..."

Chen Qing reached out to support Liao Fanzhi, lowered his voice and asked with concern, "Are you okay? How did you become like this in just a few days?"

"Ahem..." Liao Fanzhi grabbed Chen Qing's arm and smiled, "It's hard to explain, what's going on outside? Where did the corrupt officials imprison my parents?"

"It looks like this, what are you still thinking about outside? Hurry up and eat something..." Chen Qing took out the thin quilt from the cloth bag, and then managed to stuff it all into the cage.

"Not busy..." In the darkness, Liao Fanzhi's eyes were bright and he asked with a faint light, "And tell me Brother Liang's plan."

Chen Qing's throat tightened, and he looked at Liao Fanzhi, who had a difficult expression, and asked, "If the Liang family can't take care of themselves, will you drag Zijun to jail?"

"It's hard to say~" Liao Fanzhi chuckled, he couldn't tell whether his tone was teasing or serious, and he just looked at Chen Qing's slightly indifferent face playfully.

"Zi Jun believes that you will not betray him, but I am afraid, so I came here to ask you for proof. If you are willing to sacrifice your life to take the blame, the Liang family will definitely not let your family be ruined." Chen Qing put away all the nonsense and pointed to the core.

"Hehe... That's it, why bother? You are not afraid that I will drag him into the water?... After all, maybe I want to survive more than the whole family?" Liao Fanzhi sneered.

"You won't," Chen Qing replied affirmatively.

"Why do you know?" Liao Fanzhi went through four days of hardships, and even he didn't believe his own character.

"That's what I think." Chen Qing replied proudly, that's what he thought, otherwise he wouldn't have come here to confirm.

"Hehe... This hellish place, let alone a lifetime, I guess I can't even survive a year. Are you so sure that I won't ask Brother Liang to question him? After all, he has officials to take care of him. As long as he can get away with it, I will definitely It's better to go to hell alone..." Liao Fanzhi leaned back against the fence, took out the wine jug in his cloth bag and took a sip, smashing his mouth and muttering "good wine!"

"You're not that kind of person. If so, I, Chen Qing, don't even bother to come here to tell you. I just need to put all the crimes on you." Chen Qing replied with certainty, but he couldn't help but start beating in his heart. The human spirit was crushed, and he really couldn't guarantee whether the previous strategy could continue.

"Hey hey... It's enough to have your words, tell Zijun, brother, Liao's family members will be taken care of by him, and there is no need to rebuild the family business, just find a safe place to protect them. ...Have you brought your pen and ink?" Liao Fanzhi asked with a self-deprecating wry smile.

"Bring it, if you have something to write to your family, I can pass it on for you." Chen Qing sighed secretly, thanks to the firmness of this person, if he hadn't gone through this experience, how would he know that death row is such a tortured place? ?

Liao Fanzhi shook his hands and wrote a letter from home without hesitation, folded it, stuffed it into an envelope and handed it to Chen Qing, "It must be delivered to the father-in-law and daughter-in-law."

Chen Qing took the heavy envelope, hesitated for a while before dared to say, "Actually, I didn't want to mention it to you, I was afraid I would give you hope and let you down... I respect you for being a man, so I won't play these riddles with you. If Zijun can get rid of the crime, he will definitely try his best to get you out, but I can't guarantee whether it will be successful..."

Chen Qing said hesitantly, how could he be disappointed if there is no hope?It gives people the expectation that if they hit back to reality again, they will go crazy and shake everything out regardless... For the sake of Liang Zijun, Chen Qing dare not take the slightest risk, but Liao Fanzhi is so free and easy , and made him unable to be such a villain.

"Hahaha... It's up to you to say? I have known him for many years, how can I not understand his mind?" Liao Fanzhi's hoarse voice shook Chen Qing's face, and he just responded, "Well, I am far behind You are familiar with Zijun"

"Come here with your ear..." Liao Fanzhi couldn't avoid suspicion, he lay next to Chen Qing's ear and muttered for a while, finally patted Chen Qing on the shoulder, and said like a buddy, "It's up to you! I can trust Zijun, so I can trust you, no matter what Success or failure, a man has no regrets in the world!"

"Don't worry, Chen Qing will keep his promise." Chen Qing clenched his fist and beat his chest lightly, and handed it to Liao Fanzhi.

Liao Fanzhi laughed hoarsely, and responded loudly, "I like you man!"

Two fists collide, sincerity and loyalty intersect.

There is no doubt about him, Liao Fanzhi will entrust everything to Chen Qing, and Chen Qing will definitely live up to his expectations and will take care of all the affairs behind him.
