When Bai Qing came, he saw that it was already crowded.
They were not residents, but people from all walks of life armed with weapons, who surrounded the place.
A group of people from the Yulin Army came to guard the side to prevent these Jianghu people from causing chaos.
"What happened?" Bai Qing thought that Li Deen had broken the rules as soon as he entered the city.
Hundreds of households in the Yulin Army replied: "Hui Master Bai, Li De'en has appeared, and people from all corners of the country around Suzhou have come."
"Why are you here? Does he owe a debt or a life?" Bai Qing asked.
Baihu: "There are people who come to admire the world's masters, and people who want to challenge. They are all waiting. They are already queuing up."
"..." Bai Qing rolled his eyes. The people waiting outside the inn suddenly felt that they were all very brave.
Although one of the top ten players on the expert list has dropped because of Dianyi, they are not ones you can offend, right?
The government will not care about this kind of duel between rivers and lakes, a life-or-death challenge.
If you dare to take action, you must be prepared to be killed.
This kind of martial culture has existed since the Taihuang period, and neither Daxia nor other countries have banned it, but the prerequisite is that both parties must be clearly willing to challenge and sign a contract.
Many intractable grievances are resolved in this way.
"Has anyone taken the challenge?" Bai Qing asked.
Baihu shook his head: "We are all waiting. Li Deen is taking a nap, so we have to wait for him to wake up."
"... Are you so brave?"
Bai Qing was speechless: "Just kick in the door?"
"Who dares? That is the eleventh master in the world..." said a soldier.
When Bai Qing heard this, he straightened his back, thinking it was a good opportunity to show off.
So, he immediately took a quick step, borrowed some strength and leaped to the top of the inn.
"What a light kung fu!" People all over the street praised him when they saw it.
Bai Qing stood on the roof and shouted: "Li De'en, come out and fight!"
The sound is loud and clear, and it makes people feel refreshed after listening to it.
"flutter--"
The rubble under Bai Qing's feet suddenly surged upwards, a hole was opened in the roof from below, and a figure leaped up and stabbed out with a sword.
"Okay!" The crowd of spectators immediately clapped their hands. This rumored way of appearing still made people excited.
Hundreds of members of the Yulin Army downstairs: "..."
…
"Master Young Master, the officials from the Ministry of Revenue are here!"
Fang Jue stood at a very high point in the city, at the attic belonging to the Yulin Army's garrison, using his telescope to look at the two fighting men on the roof of Fengyue Inn.
When someone came to report, the disaster relief official from the Ministry of Household Affairs finally arrived, and then he reluctantly took off the telescope.
"It's a pity that I can't practice martial arts." Fang felt regretful that he couldn't enjoy the pleasure of fighting with masters.
After putting away the telescope, Fang Jue said: "Let's go, take me to see those adults."
Inside the South City Gate.
The officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs who had just entered the city were a little tired, but after just a few steps they saw many people cheering on the roadside.
When I heard the commotion and looked up, I saw two afterimages fighting each other quickly on the roof of the inn. I felt an indescribable sense of amazement.
"As expected of a frontier fortress, how can the folk customs be so fierce?" Bai Yu, the new minister of the Ministry of Revenue, suddenly saw something interesting.
Although I can't understand the moves, it looks really cool and has a great visual impact.
"Ahem..." The accompanying household official coughed twice.
Bai Yu came back to his senses and looked ahead.
"I have met the young master!" Bai Yu saluted quickly.
Fang Jue smiled and looked at him: "What do you call this gentleman?"
"Bai Yu, the new minister of the lower official household department."
New minister?
Suddenly thinking of He Louqian, Fang Jue nodded: "Are all the officials from the Ministry of Revenue here?"
Bai Yu handed over his hand and said, "Young master, among the eighteen officials of the Ministry of Revenue, three of them got sick along the way and have been put on hold."
Running long distances, with the physique of these literati, it is natural that they will be easily injured and fatigued.
Fang Jue didn't care about this at all: "It's good if you come. We are amateurs in disaster relief. We only temporarily controlled the situation. To achieve perfect aftermath, you have to come."
"Young Master's words are serious. When I entered the city, I didn't see a single beggar or homeless person. This shows that Young Master has a good way of providing disaster relief and is really humble." Bai Yu was also good at officialdom.
At this time, the people from the Xuanjian Division came running from the city gate and said happily:
"Sir, Master Young Master, Ganzhou's grain team has finally arrived!"
"The grain team has arrived, so soon?" Bai Yu and other household officials were a little surprised. They thought they would have to wait at least another three to five days.
Fang Jue laughed: "Okay, today the adults from the Ministry of Revenue arrived at the same time as the grain team from Ganzhou. What a great joy."
"Come here, take the adults from the Ministry of Revenue down to rest first, and we will arrange the disaster relief agenda later."
"Send someone to pick up the food team. Don't let anything happen again!"
Bai Yu bowed and said, "I am resigning."
He really wanted to say that he could take over the disaster relief right now, but the bumpy days were really unbearable and he had to take a good rest.
After seeing off the household officials, Fang Jue immediately took Ye Hongyi and others to the outside of the south city gate.
The remnants of Beiliang's defeated generals did not show up this time. I don't know if they were really exterminated.
On the desolate plains, a white belt finally appeared. If you look closely, you can see that it is the oilcloth covering the grain truck, used for waterproofing.
Otherwise, after traveling a long distance, the food would have been damp and sprouted long ago, and there would be no way to deliver it to Suzhou.
"Deng Deng..."
The hoofbeats of the war horses make a clanging sound, which is the sound of the horseshoes colliding with the ground.
Lu Xin came on horseback, his armor stained with blood. When he saw Fang Jue and others, he shouted: "Sir, I'm here, haha..."
"drive!"
Soon, Lu Xin dismounted in front of Fang Jue, cupped his hands and said: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my duty and escorted the grain team here without any damage!"
Looking at the blood on his armor, everyone could imagine that he must have been intercepted along the way.
"Thank you for your hard work. General Lu, go down and rest. I'll leave it to the Yulin Army next." Lin Bei said with a cup of his hands.
"Okay!" Lu Xin chuckled and asked the Yulin Army to take him into the city. He was really tired.
"The food team is here?"
"Look, everyone, the disaster relief food from the imperial court has arrived!"
The people outside Suzhou shouted first, and then the people in the city rushed out and crowded at the door.
Dian Yi and Ye Hongyi skillfully surrounded Fang Jue, keeping a close eye on the crowd on both sides, fearing that someone was hiding among the people waiting for an opportunity to assassinate him.
"It's really here, the food is all food!" The people of Suzhou were overjoyed.
"Woooo..." Someone cried on the spot.
"The imperial court is still thinking of us...the imperial court is thinking of us, the people of Suzhou!"
"Long live your Majesty!" Many people knelt down and thanked the Emperor for his kindness, "Long live the Great Xia!"
"It's good when the food comes, it's good when it comes..." Many people cried with joy.
In order not to take risks, Fang Jue still let the crowd escort him and took him to the side of the south gate, and returned to the city in a hanging basket.
There are currently no Beiliang people in the city. If he is assassinated in public, it will definitely affect the relationship between the court and the people.
"Young Master, now that the relief food has arrived, should we withdraw our troops and deploy them?"
"Has your Majesty's letter arrived?" Fang Jue knew what everyone meant by asking.
Ye Hongyi shook his head: "Not yet."
"Then just wait. I can't give people a reason to talk, let alone let His Majesty think that I can make decisions for him." Fang Jue has long wanted to understand this level. If he wants to stay in Daxia and do more things, he must
Let the emperor believe that he will not threaten him.
This kind of trust requires that each other not touch the bottom line.
The emperor's bottom line is imperial power. The most intuitive aspects of imperial power are administrative and military power, among which military power is the most untouchable.
"Let's wait a little longer. At most tonight?" Ye Hongyi couldn't guarantee it.
At night, all the officials from the Ministry of Revenue woke up, and Lu Xin, who had slept well, came with Fang Jue to report the accident on the way.
Everyone gathered together, and when they were handing over the relief work, Bai Qing and Ye Hongyi broke in, holding something in their hands.
Fang Jue's eyes were sharp and he walked out immediately.
"Did your Majesty write a letter?" Fang Jue said excitedly.
"Congratulations, young master!"
Ye Hongyi smiled and said: "His Majesty has appointed you as the General of the Conquest of the North, and ordered you to lead the Suzhou Yulin Army, Liangzhou Camp and Lizhou Camp to attack, at least to capture the three border states of Beiliang including Linzhou.
Land!"
"General of the expedition to the north?" Fang Jue frowned, a little confused, "Your Majesty's current official position, right?"
There have been many official positions like this in history, and the emperor could make himself a general at a whim.
Ye Hongyi was also a little excited: "This is the rank of second-grade military attaché!"
"There really is such a position..." Fang Jue was surprised, and then said seriously, "Then send an order to the Third Battalion immediately!"
Lin Bei had already followed him out. After hearing it clearly, he said worriedly: "It's just a secret message from Fei Ge. I'm afraid that none of the three battalions dare to move at this time. There is no imperial edict or military talisman."
"Imperial Talisman?"
Ye Hongyi spread out the letter paper in his hand and said, "Does the one printed on it count?"
After saying that, everyone looked at the letter in her hand. An emperor's treasure seal was stamped on the secret letter, covering the entire content.
Everyone was surprised. This kind of operation has not happened since this dynasty.
