Abandoned Prince Survival Guide

In April of the seventh year in the early days, a vision appeared in the sky, and Ying Huo guarded his heart.

Tai Shiling, who was in charge of observing the sky, broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this scene.Because being cautious and guarding one's heart means that the world will be in chaos and the emperor's star will fall.

The next day, Xiao Yu listened to Tai Shiling's report on the matter in the court hall, and said lightly: "Understood."

His Highness and ministers were all shocked, but no one dared to speak,

Tai Shiling, who was sweating profusely, saw that Xiao Yu didn't take it seriously, and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance, and we must find a way to avoid disaster."

Xiao Yu raised his eyes: "What disaster are you avoiding?"

Tai Shiling knelt down on the ground: "Forgive me for your courage, guard your heart, and endanger the emperor's star. Your Majesty needs to blame others to break the siege." Since ancient times, emperors have practiced blaming their subjects. Once a certain minister in the court dies instead of the emperor , the emperor will not fall.

Xiao Yu understood and raised his eyes to look at the officials of His Highness. Except for Min Chong, no one dared to look up at him. He smiled and said, "Why do you want to blame others? Is my life more valuable than others? , If God really has no eyes and wants to take my life, then let him do it. I ask myself that I have no shame in heaven, I have no shame in earth, and I have no shame in the people of the world. I don’t believe that God is so ruthless that he will take my life. This matter There is no need to mention it again."

When Tai Shiling heard the words, he had to say: "I obey the order!"

None of the ministers in the court dared to persuade them, because if they persuaded them, they would get angry, that would be self-inflicted.

After the court, Min Chong followed Xiao Yu to the study: "Your Majesty, do you really not care about the matter of Ying Huo Xing?"

Xiao Yu smiled slightly and said, "Do you think I believe in such nonsense?"

Min Chong said: "Your Majesty doesn't believe it, but others will believe it. Within a few days, there will be various rumors among the people. Do you believe it, Your Majesty?"

Xiao Yu said, "Will someone use this to spread rumors?"

Min Chong nodded: "Exactly."

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows: "Then let's follow the clues and find out who is spreading the rumors."

"The minister obeys the order!"

A few days later, Ah Ping came back from school with a bruised nose and swollen face. Xiao Yu was very surprised: "Did you fight with someone?"

A Ping glanced at him and lowered his head: "Well, I fought with my classmates."

Xiao Yu said, "Why did you fight?"

A Ping pouted aggrievedly: "Some people in the school today said that if you keep your heart and mind, it's God punishing the emperor for being innocent. They said that Daddy made the rooster wake up in the morning, let the women study and become officials, and disturbed the rules, so they should be punished."

"So you fought with them?" Xiao Yu asked.

"I didn't. I reasoned with them because they were short-sighted. There is no difference between men and women. They look down on women, which is equivalent to looking down on their mothers and sisters. They couldn't tell me, so they fought with me." A Ping said .

Xiao Yu patted his head in relief: "Ping'er is right. Did you suffer then?"

"No, they were injured more seriously. I knocked out a tooth." A Ping said proudly.

Xiao Yu laughed out loud: "That's right, it's a good fight. They are the ones who don't make sense anyway, and they deserve to be beaten. Let your senior brother show you and get some medicine."

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore." A Ping touched his face indifferently, and after a while, he showed worry again, "Daddy, is that self-consciousness really serious?"

Xiao Yu said: "It's not serious, it's a natural phenomenon. There are countless stars in the sky, and that Yinghuo star is one of them. Although it looks so small, they are actually about the same size as our place. Because of the distance, it looks so small. And the place where we live is actually a star in the sky."

Aping's eyes widened instantly: "Really? Daddy!"

Xiao Yu smiled and nodded: "Really. Can't you imagine it? The place we are in should be called the Earth, and it is also floating in the sky."

"But why didn't we float up?" Aping had countless question marks in his heart.

Xiao Yu said: "It's more complicated to say. Because the earth has a force that pulls us all to the ground. You haven't seen that no matter what you throw into the air, it will eventually fall."

A Ping thought for a while: "It seems to be true. Even a kite needs wind to float up. If there is no wind, it will fall to the ground. What about birds? Why can they fly?"

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "The body structure of birds may be different. They can't stay in the air forever, and they will eventually fall."

A Ping tilted his head and looked out of the door. A little bird was flying from the tree to the ground: "It's so amazing, Daddy. It's so interesting. Is it really all right for Yinghuo Shouxin?"

"It doesn't matter, because Yinghuoxing and Anxin are not fixed, they are also moving in the sky, and our earth is always moving. When they come to a line, there will be a phenomenon of Yinghuo guarding the heart." Xiao Yu found three things for him and arranged them in a straight line on the table to demonstrate to him.

A Ping said: "Then why did the ancients say that you should keep your heart and keep your heart? At this time, there will always be wars and other situations?"

"It's not like this every time. There may have been two coincidences in the war. Later, people regarded this coincidence as a rule. In fact, there is no connection between the two. Ping'er, you have to remember that only A licentious, incompetent and incompetent emperor will be overthrown, but a diligent, wise and benevolent emperor will always win the support of the people.”

A Ping nodded earnestly: "I remember Daddy, I will be a diligent, wise and caring emperor in the future."

Xiao Yu patted his son's head in relief: "That's right."

As expected, rumors spread all over the city, all of which were slandering Xiao Yu.Min Chong followed people around and arrested two people. They both said that someone paid them to hire them, but the hirer could not be found, and he must have run away a long time ago.

Xiao Yu thought for a while, maybe it was the rumor spread by Xiao Yi who was hiding somewhere, or maybe it was spread by a certain family with evil intentions. He has moved so many people's interests, and there are always people who don't like him.

Pei Linzhi, who was far away in Yuzhou, heard the rumor and galloped back on lightning.

Seeing him come back, Xiao Yu was surprised and pleasantly surprised: "Why are you back?"

Pei Linzhi grabbed his arm and looked him up and down: "Are you okay?"

Xiao Yu said, "It's all right."

Pei Linzhi held him tightly in his arms: "It's fine, it's fine, it's fine."

Xiao Yu thought for a while, and said, "You didn't come back because you heard the rumors that you were bewildered and guarded your heart?"

Pei Linzhi said: "That's right. I'm worried about you because Ying Huo committed an offense against Di Xing."

"That's all nonsense, don't believe it. Besides, I'm not the only emperor now, even if there is such a thing, how do you know that they are not offending them?" Xiao Yu comforted him jokingly.

He is a materialist, so of course he doesn't believe in these things, but the fact that he's here now can't be explained by materialism.Pei Linzhi doesn't understand materialism, so he must be worried about himself, so saying this can really make him feel more at ease.

As expected, Pei Linzhi was comforted by him: "It makes sense. There is indeed a strange thing happening in Xirong."

"Hey, what's going on with Xirong?"

Pei Linzhi then told him that not long after Yinghuo Shouxin appeared, countless fireballs fell from the sky in Liangzhou City of Xirong, and the ground sank three feet. .The city of Liangzhou had to be rebuilt at another site.

Due to the inconvenient transportation and the lack of news, this matter has not yet reached Xiao Yu's ears.

Xiao Yu knew that this was actually just a natural phenomenon. The so-called fireball from the sky could only be caused by a falling meteorite. However, it is not common for a meteorite to burn down a house when it falls. It seems that the meteorite is quite big this time.

Pei Linzhi only stayed in Beijing for two or three days, and then returned to Yuzhou. This year, there are frequent visions. I am afraid that there will be a war. It is better to train and deploy troops as soon as possible.

After summer, there is very little rain in the Yangtze River Basin.After the early rice was harvested, the late rice could not be planted in many places.Fortunately, the water conservancy facilities in various places have been repaired well, alleviating the drought.

The early rice was not affected, and it was still a bumper harvest. The common people had surplus grain in their warehouses, but they were not so impatient. If they could not grow rice, they planted some drought-tolerant soybeans, and they could harvest a little.

The south was dry, but in the north there was a rare torrential rain in decades. The entire Yellow River Basin was raining continuously for half a month.

The water level of the Yellow River has skyrocketed, and the Weihe and Jinghe Rivers in Guanzhong have experienced a once-in-a-century flood.

Half of the wheat waiting to be harvested in the Guanzhong Plain was submerged. A few days later, the flood receded, and the wheat was all rotten in the muddy water. There was no harvest, and the loss was extremely heavy.

The Guanzhong Plain is where Xirong's granary is located, and now the harvest is so greatly affected, it is a huge hidden danger.Both Xiao Yu and Pei Linzhi had a premonition that this year's battle would be inevitable.

The food crops in the Yellow River Basin are harvested for one season. If there is no harvest for one season, it means that there will be no harvest for the whole year.

What's more, there were droughts and locust plagues the year before, and floods happened only a year later. No matter how rich the family was, they couldn't afford such consumption.

After the flood, some fleeing Xirong civilians appeared in the territory of Anguo. These people took their families and took the risk of beheading, crossed the border between the two countries, and fled to the territory of Anguo.

Xirong punished the people who defected very severely. If they were found, they would be sentenced to death.But people are still willing to take the risk of crossing the border, because staying in Xirong is a dead end if they don't escape.

In the beginning, there were only sporadic people fleeing south, but in the end, it turned out to be a large number of refugees, like flocks being driven away, crossing the border between the two countries and rushing towards Anguo.
