It was a sunny day a few days ago.

It suddenly started pouring rain that day...

The guards in front of the palace gate were all complaining about the terrible weather. The heavy rain caused a layer of mist on the ground. Their shoes and socks were soaked and they were shivering involuntarily.

I finally stayed up until the latter half of the night, thinking about taking a nap...Suddenly, Jian Shuo appeared. He was so tired...he went into the palace overnight to meet the emperor, which made all the guards very energetic.

Recently, no one knows, Wuhuan went south... and surrounded Zhuojun.

But for several days, it was war or peace!

...There is still no definite number.

At this time, anyone's sudden entry into the palace is very important...

Is it a war?

Is it and?

Not to mention the emperor and the officials, even an ordinary city guard wanted to know.

Half an hour later...in the Qianqiu Long Live Palace.

"Your Majesty... Nanyang sent back an urgent message!"

Jian Shuo's appearance made Liu Hong frown subconsciously. At this time, the big man couldn't withstand any riots. It must not be... a mutiny in Nanyang.

It is indeed a Nanyang thing!

But it's not a mutiny...

But the recovery of Nanyang people’s hearts!

Jian Shuo reported the current situation in Nanyang to Emperor Liu Hong.

This made Liu Hong take a long breath, and also made his gloomy cheeks feel a little more relieved.

"Nanyang, good..."

Liu Hong hesitated for a long time before chanting these three words.

After a moment, he frowned again. "Yu'er can calm down the situation in Nanyang by 'breaking the ground for the stone tablet' in Nanyang, but how can we calm down the situation when Wuhuan goes south and Zhuojun is besieged?"

just like…

One wave comes after another.

Liu Hong paced to the left with a discouraged expression. "If those generals and those clans had Yu'er's determination to 'face the difficulties' and Wuhuan marched south, why would I be indecisive?"

Bang... With a punch, Liu Hong hit the dragon case hard, and the entire dragon case was splashed with ink... The table was shaking without moving.

Jian Shuo's eyes were fixed and he immediately added a sentence.

"Your Majesty, after the eldest son of the emperor cured the plague in Nanyang and calmed down the people of Nanyang, he also met someone?"

"Human?" Liu Hong's eyes flashed, a little confused.

"Jian Yong came from Zhuojun, Youzhou..."

"Jian Yong?" Liu Hong was not familiar with this name. He had only heard it a few times. He knew that he went north to Zhuo County with Liu Bei to fight the plague.

Isn't he...he...in Zhuojun? Why did he go to Nanyang?

This issue just came out.

etc…

Liu Hong suddenly thought of something.

"You mean that Jian Yong went south and was sent by Liu Xuande to ask for help from Yu'er."

Inexplicably, Liu Hong's eyes opened... and he stared at Jian Shuo closely, as if he was looking forward to the answer.

"Exactly!"

Jian Shuo said truthfully: "This Jian Yong did ask for help from the emperor's eldest son, and the emperor's eldest son... he... he didn't know what method he told Jian Yong. Jian Yong went north again early yesterday morning. It seemed... he seemed confident!

"

Hmm... confident?

Liu Hong was stunned!

He really couldn't figure out where this confidence came from...

Could it be that... Wuhuan went south to Kou Bian, and Yu'er had already found a solution.

Considering that he had played games with the Yuan family in Runan, fought against the plague, and never risked his life to survive... Zhu Yu was at the forefront, and Liu Hong had reason to believe that Yu'er would definitely have a solution this time...

"hehe…"

Liu Hong sneered. It was a difficult problem that the court weighed over and over again and could not come up with the idea of ​​"war" or "peace", but... Yu'er came up with a solution overnight.

Regardless of success or failure, this can really shame the imperial court and all officials.

"What are Yu'er going to do...?" Liu Hong paced again... and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

It seems...in Yu'er's hand, there are not many cards that can be played!

"Your Majesty." Jian Shuo spoke again: "Recently, the eldest son of the emperor has summoned the descendants of the Yuntai generals...it seems that he intends to borrow some troops and guardians from them?"

"Borrowing troops?" Liu Hong looked incredulous.

Borrowing troops from the descendants of these generals?

How can it be…

At that time, the imperial court was almost impoverished. What were these descendants of the generals doing? They were still lining their own pockets... They were so greedy that they expected them to spit it out?

What exactly was Yu'er thinking?

…

…

Nanyang, Wancheng.

A banquet was held at Liu Yu's house, and all the descendants of the eleven Yuntai generals of Nanyang were present.

It's just that... there is no delicacies on the table, only a bowl of water, which inevitably looks... a bit shabby.

"Ahem..."

Some clan leaders couldn't help but speak first. "Governor Liu wants to borrow his troops to protect the courtyard. Logically speaking... As a member of the 'Zhengyi Merchant Alliance', he should provide support, but..."

The clan leader frowned. "Although we are the descendants of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, we have no official or position. The number of people sent out by this song and the guardianship will not be helpful. If we send out too many, it will be inevitable."

... The imperial court criticized us, saying that we raised soldiers privately and had evil intentions... This song is not a good match for the nursing home!"

"Yes...yes..." Another clan leader opened his mouth and said: "Now, thanks to the blessing of Alliance Leader Liu, the 'Yu Stone' has been excavated in Funiu Mountain. We have sent all our guards and tribes there to excavate it."

, and we have to prevent the thieves from stealing it... we need more than a few thousand manpower? Every piece of music wants to be broken into two parts... where else can..."

"Ahem..." Another clan leader looked embarrassed. "Leader Liu... After all, we are Nanyang. After all, we are a merchant alliance. When there is a plague in Nanyang, how can there be any city or county in the other counties of the Han Dynasty to help?

Now... Zhuojun is in trouble. The nearest Jizhou, Bingzhou, and Qingzhou are unable to retreat. Why should we, Nanyang, who are thousands of miles away... wade into this muddy water!"

just like…

The clan leaders of these Yuntai generals are all very shrewd. Liu Yu just proposed "borrowing troops" and they quickly postponed it.

The excuses I gave were not easy to refute.

On the other hand...Liu Yu just sipped the tea lightly, as if he had expected this situation all along.

He turned his eyes to "Deng", the head of the Deng family. He was the leader of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai. His words... had more weight.

"What does Patriarch Deng think?"

What do you think…

Deng was stroking his beard when he was suddenly called by Liu Yu. He was a little surprised.

"I want to hear what Leader Liu has to say first."

No matter what, the clan leaders of the entire Yuntai generals always addressed Liu Yu politely... They called Leader Liu one by one, which felt very cordial!

As the saying goes, money is cold, but it is hot in your arms!

Coal is also cold, and it is still hot in your arms!

"Okay, then I, the leader, will just say a few words."

Liu Yu slowly stood up...

Despite his young age, he is full of aura standing among the clan leaders.

"Just one thing..."

"This time, any family that can support me for five hundred steps will receive an additional 40% of the profits from Funiu Mountain Coal Mine! In addition... I also have a mining site of Nanyang Coal Mine here! Families that can support me for one thousand steps and nursing home,

You can participate in this mining and... enjoy 40% of the profits!"

Liu Yu's words were very light...but such words caused an uproar among the clan leaders!

Everyone's eyes suddenly widened...

The mouth is also open, as if one of the eggs can be stuffed into it.

It's not that the expressions are exaggerated, but...these clan leaders have made precise calculations. Even if 20% of the profits from the Funiu Mountain Coal Mine are shared equally among these families, it is still a huge number for them!

With such a wise way of making money, only a fool would make money from the plague?

And... the income of 20% is enough to drive these clan leaders crazy, let alone an increase of 20%, and... there is another coal mining area, which is still 40%. This kind of financial temptation is enough.

It makes people take desperate risks and even ignore all laws...

hehe…
