who said you were poor

Unlike Jiangnan, which has a lot of rain, there is not much rain in autumn in the north. When the weather is good, there will be no rain for a few days, but once it rains, it will be autumn rain and cool.

There were a few bouts of auspicious snowfall the year before, and this year is naturally also a bumper harvest year.

In the first year that the King of the Northern War took over the Northern Territory, the people were exempted from taxes for one year, and they will start to collect taxes normally after this fall.

The prince and concubine were not at the mansion, Yan Er shouldered the heavy burden again, and took care of everything early.

In the past two years, the lives of the people have improved, and it is the first time that the officials who go out to collect taxes have experienced this kind of treatment. They can collect the taxes from village to village without forcing the people.

Not only that, some people even stuffed them with homemade food.

It's just that they absolutely didn't dare to ask for these things, the palace had already informed them that if they dared to take away and loot the property of the people and be reported to the palace, they would lose their heads.

But shortly after the autumn harvest, some refugees appeared inexplicably in the city. The defense of Twelve Cities did not dare to delay, and immediately reported this matter to the higher authorities.

You must know that there are refugees in the northern border, which is more rare than two suns in the sky.

The bandits near the northern border have all been recruited and should be wiped out, otherwise these people would die on the road, let alone go to the northern border.

It is precisely because of this that Yan Er rushed to deal with the news as soon as he received the news, and he must not let these refugees live on any other mountain.

After some cross-examination, I was surprised to learn that this group of people came from the south.

This group of people who escaped for their lives was several times more than the number who survived, but they were ambushed by people who did not know where they came from along the way. The group of people who were going to the capital had to go north in order to survive, so they fled directly to the north. .

Yan Er asked clearly what he wanted to know, and thought that the situation in the south was not good, so he immediately sent someone to Beijing to deliver a letter to Yan Cang, and at the same time transferred [-] Li's troops to the capital.

And just a few days ago, Yan Cang and Lin Nuo finally knew the truth of the situation.

The continuous rain in the south and the turning of the earth dragon directly caused the bridge and road to collapse.

The most absurd thing about this matter is that the year before last, the imperial court allocated funds to repair the Daoqiao in the south, and within two years, a ground dragon turned over and completely collapsed.

The local officials did not expect to encounter such a thing at all. The granary was empty, and there was no money for disaster relief.

They concealed the report layer by layer, only hoping to block these people to death in the local area, and the emperor waited far away for the disaster relief funds from the imperial court.

They kept it a secret for more than a month.

If Yan Cang and Lin Nuo hadn't sent people to escort supplies to the south, and the refugees who had escaped knew the truth, the entire capital would have been kept in the dark!

It's just that refugees have arrived near the capital one after another now, and I'm afraid that in another half a month, such absurd things will be clearly revealed.

The shopkeeper from the south went back to the house and brought back a four or five-year-old little girl. Uncle Zhong still laughed at him when he saw it, "The princess sent you out, and you brought back all the illegitimate daughters, and you raised them so big."

The shopkeeper waved his hand, and didn't care to tease him, "Who is in the house, the lord or the concubine?"

"Both of them are here, but the lord is going to patrol the city in the afternoon, and he's going to go out soon." Uncle Zhong saw that he was really in a hurry, so he hurriedly led him to see the lord.

When the shopkeeper saw the two of them, he reported the situation in the south clearly, and after he finished speaking, he touched the head of the little girl beside him, "Both the parents of this girl died on the way to escape. , let me be a slave to anyone who stutters at will, as long as I can survive."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Zhong took the child out, "Talk first, and I'll show her what to eat in the backyard."

"Jianzheng's hexagram was actually tested on man-made disasters."

Listening to Lin Nuo's words, Yan Cang signaled the shopkeeper to go out and close the door first.

"If I remember correctly, the job of repairing the road was also taken over by the prince back then."

Lin Nuo raised his brows lightly, "It's the prince again, the emperor can't protect him this time."

It's just that now the rioters can't enter the imperial city at all, and even if they can't even walk to the capital, they will be stopped by people from nearby government offices.

The two discussed for a while, and immediately asked Yan San and Yan Si to lead a team to secretly escort the refugees, making sure to let them go to the capital.

Under the interference of various forces, the group finally arrived at the foot of the emperor before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The palace has been busy preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet recently.

The queen found an opportunity to let the emperor relax, and promised to release the prince's foot restraint on the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, and let him leave the mansion to attend the banquet in the palace.

Unexpectedly, on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, refugees gathered outside the imperial city.

Everyone knew that if the emperor knew the news again, the position of the crown prince would be in danger.

And for the eldest prince's people, this may be the last chance to bring the prince down.

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, various forces in Beijing secretly surged.

Yan Cang returned to the mansion early, and brought back many messy things.

He handed the purse to Lin Nuo, "It contains a powder that can temporarily blind people. If someone attacks you, open the purse and throw it out. Be careful not to sprinkle it on your face."

Then he took out a hairpin from his bosom, "This hairpin can also be used as a knife at critical moments."

"And this armor, wear it next to your body tomorrow."

Looking at the things he took out, Lin Nuo stretched out his hand to hold his hand holding the things, "What happened to the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace tomorrow?"

"The excerpts from the Southern Land will be presented to the emperor tomorrow. Even if the crown prince has been working for many years, even if he is willing to be abolished, the people under him will not support it. There will probably be changes tomorrow, and we have to prepare early."

Lin Nuo, who didn't expect to experience this, nervously held Yan Cang's hand, "Then what should we do?"

Seeing that he was frightened, Yan Cang held him in his arms and comforted him patiently, "It's okay, we still have soldiers outside the city. If the crown prince really ascends the throne, at worst we will flee back to the northern border and become king ourselves."

His tone didn't seem to be fake, and Lin Nuo also seriously thought about whether what the prince said was feasible, and Lin Nuo, who realized what he was thinking, suddenly widened his eyes unconsciously, he!He actually thought about treason one day!

Yan Cang thought he was worried, "Tomorrow I will replace half of the Imperial Forest Army with my own people, don't worry, I will take good care of you."

Lin Nuo nodded perfunctorily, his mind was full of treason, no matter how carefully he thought about it, it's not impossible?Thinking of this, he quickly shook his head, no, no, this kind of thinking is too outrageous.

Seeing him shaking his head, Yan Cang tilted his head to look at his face, "What's wrong?"

Lin Nuo, who was thinking wildly, was taken aback by him, and when he hid back, he lay on the bed directly. This action made Yan Cang, who was originally serious, laugh.

"My husband is so proactive, but I can't do it today. I have to get up early tomorrow morning to arrange various matters."

Lin Nuo, who was lying on the bed, tried to sit up with his hands propped up in embarrassment, and when he raised his body, he kissed Yan Cang who deliberately looked down at him, but Yan Cang still said indecently, "I really can't do it today."

In the dead of night, our handsome, unrestrained and suave Northern Warlord was kicked out of the room again.

Coincidentally, it was Yan Wu who was watching the night today. When Yan Wu saw the prince suddenly come out of the room in the middle of the night, he thought there was something urgent and jumped off the roof.

"What are your orders from the lord?"

Unexpectedly, the prince glanced at him, and suddenly turned his head and spoke loudly to the room, "What? Xiao Wu, you said the bed in the study was flooded?"

Yan Wuyi said, "My lord, I didn't say anything."

"Huh? There's no quilt in the side room?"

Yan Wu stretched his head over suspiciously, "My lord, are you bewitched?"

Yan Cang pushed away the big face facing him, turned around and knocked on the door of the bedroom, "Princess, there is really no place to sleep in this mansion."

The door of the house was opened in the next second, and Yan Wu looked at his prince and walked back with a smile, scratching his head in doubt, "What is this for?"

The Northern War Palace had a good night's sleep, no matter how many aristocratic families stayed up all night.

The next day Yan Cang left the mansion early in the morning, and before leaving, he still told Lin Nuo to put on all the things he had prepared.

Because Yan Cang was going to inspect the palace, he thought he was going to enter the palace alone, but he didn't expect Jianzheng to come to the mansion after lunch.

Different from Yan Cang's worries, the supervisor still looked unworldly.

Lin Nuo was thinking about whether there would be any accidents in the palace today, and his face was always wrinkled.

The carriage stopped outside the gate of the palace, and the supervisor set his sights on him, "Today's Mid-Autumn Festival wedding banquet, the sad appearance of the princess may not be appropriate."

Hearing his prompt, Lin Nuo took two deep breaths, with a forced smile on his face, "Career, please."

The prison guard looked at the guards who were searching outside the palace gate, walked forward side by side with Lin Nuo, looked up at the dark night, "Today is an auspicious day."

Seeing his movements, Lin Nuo also looked up at the sky, "The day is auspicious, but I don't know if people will cause trouble."

"An auspicious day is both a disaster and an auspicious day."

The two of them had come early, and after taking the table, they saw that most of the officials had already arrived, and several princes also came.

To Lin Nuo's surprise, the Ninth Prince brought Lin Ling'er to the palace banquet. She is not qualified to attend the banquet as a side concubine, so she just knelt behind the Ninth Prince and served as a servant.

And the Ninth Prince had been staring at Lin Nuo since he came in, and seeing that the King of the Northern War was not there, he actually wanted to raise his glass again.

Just at this moment, the eldest prince brought the imperial concubine and eldest son into the banquet, Lin Nuo got up and went directly when he saw this, the ninth prince had to stay where he was.

"The fifth emperor brother hasn't come yet?"

Lin Nuo hummed in a low voice, and the First Prince also noticed the unfriendly gaze of the Ninth Prince, and simply chatted with Lin Nuo, telling him not to return to his position for the time being.

The prince came in after rushing the emperor to the table. The moment he saw him, the whole room fell silent for a moment.

The prime minister nodded the moment he looked at him.

After the prince took his seat, the atmosphere in the whole room became weird. The prince's face looked serious, he didn't look like he was here to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, but he looked like he was coming to the morning court.

The people who were talking in the room couldn't help lowering their volume, and the weird atmosphere was until Yan Cang walked into the hall with a sword.
