Chapter 52 The drought is spreading!
"Your Majesty, there is something wrong at the city gate!" As soon as he entered the hall, Zhang Yuan bowed and spoke quickly.
"What's the matter?"
Ji Xuan raised his eyebrows and his eyes turned cold.
At present, the imperial city can almost be said to start from scratch. If anyone dares to find trouble, it will be like touching his reverse scale.
"It's King Pingxuan. He is back and wants to enter the city!" Zhang Yuan's eyes were full of murderous aura.
The first time I received the news, I wanted to go out and kill this guy.
But after thinking about it, this guy is his own brother and his royal family...
"He? Just kill him! Wu Ju, bring some people to deal with this matter!"
When Ji Xuan heard that it was King Pingxuan, he blurted out without any thoughts.
This guy once thought about using Guo Shifu and the others to proclaim himself emperor. What should he do if he is so ruthless?
As for him being the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty?
Haha, although Ji Xuan has become King You at this moment, he has never regarded himself as a descendant of the royal family!
"Yes, your majesty, let's do it!"
Upon hearing this, Wu lifted the weight and then left the hall.
He also looked indignant. He couldn't find you earlier, but now he actually came to him on his own initiative. How could he make you feel better!
"Your Majesty, I have something else to do here!"
Seeing Wu Ju exiting the hall, Zhang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and bowed again.
"Um?"
Ji Xuan told Zhang Yuan not to stick to these etiquettes anymore and to say something.
"Your Majesty, today I am working in the city and I met many people by chance. Many of them are good farming experts. They said that the crops outside the city have reached the point where the oil has gone and the lights are dry. If it doesn't rain, it may be a waste of harvest this year!"
"The crops matter?" Ji Xuan pinched his eyebrows.
In recent days, the weather in the imperial city can be said to be good but not better. The sun shines brightly every day, but this is simply deadly for the crops you become.
If other things are easy to do, the weather is beyond the reach of manpower.
"In this way, tomorrow you will gather some crops and go to the fields with them to see if there are other solutions!"
After thinking for a long time, Ji Xuan spoke.
Other things can be delayed, but crops really cannot be delayed.
"By the way, Zhang Yuan, the lieutenant just sent a message back, saying that they had received Uncle Kong Fang's family and were on the way to the imperial city. After Uncle Kong Fang's entry into the city, make sure to make arrangements!"
Then, Ji Xuan thought of something and spoke again.
"Your Majesty, where is the right place for Uncle Kong Fang?"
Zhang Yuan thought and spoke again.
This time, all the 10,000 people who entered Beijing have been arranged in the previous private houses one by one according to the plan, but Uncle Kong Fang is a top talent and cannot be treated like this.
"He? He arranged it in the former Prince Xuan's Mansion!"
Ji Xuan turned around and spoke directly.
He is really looking forward to Confucius’ great-grandfather!
"Yes, Your Majesty, the old minister will re-treat Prince Xuan's Mansion and let Uncle Kong Fang's family settle in!"
After a stick of incense, Wu Ju and his team arrived at the city gate. At this time, the people from Prince Xuan's mansion were still confronting the city guards.
"Master General, everyone in the Xuan Palace is going to enter the city."
Seeing his boss coming, the captain of the city guarding the city hurriedly bowed and bowed.
"Haha, it turns out that he is the new commander of the Imperial Guard. I have long admired Daming before, but I have never seen him before. If I have time, I will make a drink and have fun with Lord Wu."
When the housekeeper of Prince Xuan’s Mansion saw the person in charge, his expression changed and he spoke with a flattering smile.
"Drink and talk about it? Who are you? Kill!"
Unfortunately, Wu Ju opened his mouth and scared the butler to death.
In the carriage, King Pingxuan could no longer sit still, so he lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.
"What did you say? Say it again!"
In his eyes, he didn't believe it or did not believe it.
I am the brother of the Great Zhou royal family and King You
"My Majesty said, kill!"
In a blink of an eye, Wu Ju had already exploded the momentum of a level 8 warrior and directly rushed towards King Pingxuan!
The strength of both sides was not the same level at all. In less than a stick of incense, all the teams of the Xuan Palace were destroyed, and no one was alive.
"Clear the scene!"
Wu Ju was unmoved and after giving the order, he took everyone back to the city.
Little did they know that just when Wu Ju killed King Pingxuan, there was a sound of excitement on an extremely mysterious mountain.
"One of the bloodlines of the Great Zhou Dynasty died, and now there is only one You King left. When he dies, it is the beginning of the second sainthood!"
The sound came out and was soon covered by the strong wind, as if it had never appeared before.
The conversation was divided into two sides. Just when Ji Xuan encountered another difficult thing, Guo Shifu and Shen Hou who wanted to trap Ji Xuan to death could not laugh at this moment.
As soon as he arrived in Longxi City and arranged everything, Guo Shifu received a report from his subordinates.
It is said that it has not rained for a month and the nearby fertile fields have dried up severely. If they are not treated, they will be completely eliminated.
This made Guo Shifu completely stunned.
I was originally planning to hold a grand throne ceremony after arriving in Longxi City.
In this way, we can only move back slightly.
The most important thing is that a few days ago he was mocking Ji Xuan, saying that he would be trapped in the entire imperial city after the food was harvested. Unexpectedly, he encountered such a problem,
True slap in the face!
"Your Majesty, I feel that the weather is drought, so please ask the wizard to pray for the rain in heaven, so..."
Soon, a group of strategists gave a solution.
"Since that's the case, I'll pray for the rain to come!"
In the end, Guo Shifu had no other choice but to agree with the views of a group of strategists.
There is any other way besides this? Really no
In Qingcheng, on the main seat of a mansion, Shen Hou's face was gloomy and his eyebrows did not stretch for a long time.
"There is no place where it rains within a radius of hundreds of miles?"
"Your Majesty, I have investigated. From twenty miles east of the Great Zhou Imperial City to My Qing City, there was no rainfall, and even some small rivers had dried up, and the fish and shrimps were dead!"
A civil servant was filled with sadness.
He was originally a minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and this time he followed Shen Hou to Qingcheng to establish the country. He thought he could live a good life, but he unexpectedly encountered a huge problem in a blink of an eye.
At present, 200,000 garrisons have gone to the Great Zhou Imperial City twenty miles to build a pass.
However, the food and grass consumed by the army every day is astronomical. If the grain is not harvested, it is probably not only the Great Zhou Imperial City but also them who are trapped!
"How is the Quanrong Kingdom in the east?"
Shen Hou got up, his face full of irritability.
"Your Majesty, the latest rainfall in the Quanrong Kingdom was twenty days ago. If this situation continues, the situation will not be optimistic!"
The minister sighed.
All signs indicate that this drought is likely to happen once in a thousand years, and no one can escape.
"How long can we last for the food in our hands?"
"Half a year!"
"So little?"
Shen Hou clenched his fists,
A lot of food and grass were left in the imperial city and not brought out. Now it seems that it is a huge mistake.
"Your Majesty, you may have to withdraw your army at the moment to reduce the consumption of food and grass. When the rain falls from heaven, you will go to the Great Zhou Dynasty to establish a pass."
After a long time, the civil servant finally spoke carefully.
Chapter completed!
