After saving the villain [Transmigration Book]

Five years later.

The severe drought in the Northwest that Ji Fengjun was worried about had arrived—there was not a drop of rain in March in the Northwest, and the wells and rivers were almost dry.

Ji Fengjun stood under the promenade and was watching with ecstasy. There were also a lot of things scattered in the yard, and they had all withered due to the severe drought in March.

A severe drought is a great famine, which is a once-in-a-century famine year.

Looking at the scene in the garden, Ji Fengjun couldn't help but think of the extremely brief eight words in the book that were only mentioned in memory——

Ten rooms and nine empty rooms, purgatory on earth.

He can barely control the current disaster in Xinyang, and the price of rice has not risen wildly, but how can there be a mere Xinyang with drought?

His mansion still saves food, and ordinary people don't know how difficult it will be.

He was fascinated, and he didn't react until Gu Changping walked over, and said in a low voice, "Sir."

Gu Changping sighed softly: "Only natural disasters are okay. Although the people are short of food, but when the relief food from the government arrives, nothing will happen - just fear that there will be man-made disasters in the future."

Ji Fengjun lowered his eyelids and said, "That's right - there is a severe drought in the Northwest, and Xiliang won't be much better. They live by raising livestock, and I'm afraid the impact will be even greater. Then they will definitely send troops to the south."

"Yeah——" Gu Changping sighed, that kid Junyan had been in the army for five years.

"Brother Sanhuang also discussed this matter with me. He will strengthen his defense, but the situation in the army is not much better than outside. The food and salary have been owed for a long time, and I am afraid that it will cause people's hearts to fluctuate."

"It would be great if the Taifu could go out—" Ji Fengjun murmured, he is not alone in the court, but the lack of food and salary in the army has become a long-standing habit.

"It's useless to think too much now. I will spread the news of the severe drought in the northwest to Beijing as soon as possible. If the relief food arrives one day earlier, the people in the northwest will save one death."

"Your Highness is right, I hope the court will get the news sooner."

Although Ji Fengjun had already made preparations, he couldn't be sure about the affairs of the court. He still wrote a letter and asked the grand master to come out of the mountain. He might come out of the mountain if there was something going on in the northwest.

"Sir, is that why you came to me for this?" Ji Fengjun asked.

Gu Changping smiled: "Of course not, I'm going to the army to see if you have anything that I need to bring over."

Ji Fengjun's eyes lit up: "Sir, I'll go get something later, sir."

When he came out again, he brought a bow and arrow in his hand, and said with a smile: "I read his letter saying that he is also a good archer now, so I thought about making a bow for him, sir, you try it? "

Gu Changping fiddled with it, nodded and said, "Not bad, it's a good thing."

The corners of Ji Fengjun's lips slowly curled into a smile - in the past five years, Ayan came back three times, not because he didn't want to come back, but because he only had three chances to come back, and he went to the border twice.

It's a pity that every time we meet, we will be separated again not long after.

In the past five years, there has been no large-scale war in the Northwest. It is not easy to be promoted from an ordinary soldier to a partial general without any help.

Thinking about the injury he accidentally found last time - Ji Fengjun was a little distressed, his eyes fell on the northwest direction, at this hour, Ayan should be patrolling the camp.

Ji Fengjun's guess was wrong, Jun Yan was not looking for camp at this time, but was doing an order.

With blood in front of his eyes, Jun Yan slowly closed his eyes, there was a trace of fragility in them, and when he opened them again, his eyes returned to the calmness and self-control as before.

There were nearly a thousand onlookers—two deserters had just been beheaded, and everyone was in shock.

Jun Yan took a step forward and said slowly, "Have you seen it?"

Everyone was silent, not saying a word.

"These two used to be our comrades-in-arms and our comrades-in-arms. It's a pity that when they sneaked away from the army and confessed, they were no longer our comrades-in-arms and our comrades-in-arms. Despicable villain."

"Nowadays there is a severe drought in the Northwest, and Xiliang is watching like a tiger. We are the barrier for hundreds of thousands of people in the Northwest. No matter what, we cannot retreat—most of us are from the Northwest. Behind us are our fathers, mothers, wives, and children. If we retreat, we flee, and Xiliang strikes, our parents, wives and children will die!"

"Although the deserters are small, if we don't punish them severely, our military discipline will be weak and our military law will be useless. I will kill these two deserters here, forgetting that everyone knows that the end of deserters can only be a dead end. It will bring disaster to the family, and the generations will bear their names."

"I hope all the officers and men will take care of it—" Jun Yan said, then turned and left.

Ji Fengsu sighed softly, and his eyes fell on Jun Yan. He handled this matter well, but beheading deserters was never a good job—especially, if he remembered correctly, one of them He and Jun Yan joined the army at the same time, and lived together for half a year.

I don't know if it will affect Jun Yan.

Jun Yan also felt a little sad. He thought that he would never be stained with the blood of innocent people in this life, but he never thought that one day, he would be stained with the blood of his own comrades. Also useless.

He sighed softly - I don't know what would happen if this matter was handled by the young master, would he choose to do the same thing as himself?

In the capital.

There was something unspeakably oppressive in Prince Xuan's mansion, and the maids and eunuchs were silent like cicadas.

"It's been five years! It's been five years, and he's still allowed to live. Are you all idiots?" Ji Fengxuan's mood was extremely bad.

Another wave of people he sent to assassinate Ji Fengjun came back in a hurry. Seeing that his father was getting older and more indifferent to him, he kept asking about things in Xinyang, and there was an endless stream of medicinal materials. Send it over.

It's not even as good as those young princes - especially that little thirteen, who was definitely just here to restrain him.

It's really just that as long as you look at him, you will be unlucky - yesterday, he was taught a lesson by his father.

"Your Highness, there is a severe drought in the northwest, Your Majesty, please go and discuss it."

Ji Fengxuan threw the teacup on the table abruptly: "Deliberations and discussions—every discussion involves me, which time did you listen to what I said?"

"Your Highness, please calm down." The people in Prince Xuan's mansion knelt down, but he became more and more annoyed as he looked at them - one by one, they were useless at all.

"Your Highness, I feel that the drought is a great opportunity for us, so I beg your Highness to win it."

Ji Fengxuan was slightly taken aback, his eyes lit up: "How do you say that?"

"Since there is a disaster, we will provide disaster relief. This has always been a lucrative job, and it must not fall into the hands of others. Moreover, if His Highness handles this job well, it will definitely win the hearts of the people. When the time comes, people's hearts will be what they want, so you don't have to worry about big things failing."

Ji Fengxuan nodded, what he said made some sense——

"Your Highness, please set off to the palace to discuss with His Majesty. I will explain it to His Highness in detail on the way."

Without further hesitation, he set off for the palace.

Xinyang Prince Ning's Mansion.

Ji Fengjun suppressed the anger in his heart, and said: "What!? The imperial court sent Ji Fengxuan to come to rescue the disaster?"

The glutinous rice balls were taken aback, and the tea was not stabilized, and almost spilled out. Fortunately, Ji Fengjun didn't care about these things.

Le Yi'an sighed, pushed the tea to Ji Fengjun, and said slowly: "Don't be in a hurry—the imperial edict has already come down, there is nothing you can do if you are in a hurry, but it's a pity that the old man is too old, I heard that he Already set off, ended up stopping abruptly halfway.”

"How can you let me not be in a hurry?" Ji Fengjun sighed and said: "Ji Fengxuan himself has no talent, and he listens to one side - he has a family behind him, even if Ji Fengxuan doesn't care about disaster relief, the mother clan behind him , how could you not be moved?"

That's a good point, Ji Fengxuan said he is an idiot, which is the most appropriate, but this idiot has the most powerful mother clan in the court today——

Ji Fengjun sighed lightly: "Father still has some hopes for his eldest son, otherwise he wouldn't have entrusted this job to him."

Ji Fengxuan became the mother clan, and lost the mother clan. The emperor knows best the influence of his relatives on the court. If Ji Fengxuan has the ability to control the mother clan, there is still a glimmer of hope. If he does not even have this ability, even if the throne is given to him, he will defeated in his hands.

Le Yi'an said again: "I'm afraid His Highness will meet an acquaintance again?"

"Acquaintance?" Ji Fengjun was a little surprised, "What acquaintance?" Since Le Yi'an said so, this acquaintance is probably not a good person.

Le Yi'an smiled lightly, and said, "Wang Lin'an—"

Ji Fengjun was slightly taken aback: "It's him?"

"Yeah, this guy actually got up, you and I really underestimated him at the time." Le Yi'an sighed, "It actually gave him a chance to make a comeback."

Ji Fengjun frowned slightly: "If a villain succeeds, if Ji Fengxuan can strictly restrain him, maybe it will be better."

Le Yi'an sighed lightly: "I hope His Highness will act with some measure this time—otherwise, the Northwest will be in danger."

Just talking about Tangyuan and a soldier from the border, Ji Fengjun was shocked when he saw the soldier. He had the impression that this person was Ji Fengsu's personal guard, and he was quite trusted by Ji Fengsu.

He came here in person, no doubt it has something to do with the border, could it be that Xiliang has already made a move?

"Your Highness, there has been a change at the border. The general has been shot in bed and is now in a coma."

Both Ji Fengjun and Le Yi'an were shocked - Ji Fengsu had worked in the Northwest Army for many years, his prestige in the army was unmatched, and he was even a brave and skilled general. If he was injured and fell into a coma at this juncture, it would be a disaster at the border.

"Who is in charge of the army now? Has the news of the commander's injury spread? How many troops have been sent from Xiliang, and the border can still hold it?" Ji Fengjun asked quickly with a serious face.

"The arrow shot by the commander was a surprise attack by an assassin from Xiliang. The assassin has already been killed. Xiliang has not received any news for the time being. The lieutenant general Jun Yan is in charge of the army. Other than the lieutenant general and above, ordinary soldiers in the army don't know about it."

In this way, there is no chaos at the border, and the army is still stable, but Jun Yan is only a lieutenant general after all, and Ji Fengsu is awake every day, and the army is uneasy every day.

"The deputy general sent the last general here to report the situation in the army to His Highness, and to ask Doctor Zhang to go to the army to treat the general's injuries."

Ji Fengjun frowned slightly, and asked, "General, is he poisoned?"

"The arrow was poisoned, so the general is still in a coma."

Ji Fengjun sighed softly, it really is that misfortunes never come singly——
