"In Nanyang, there was a drought in the two counties of Ningshu. Brother Han was ordered to investigate the disaster and go to provide relief. However, there is only a thousand gold left in the treasury for the king's birthday party, and the military rations cannot be tampered with. Brother Han's trip may not be easy."
Zhang Liang looked solemn, "The price of food in the city continues to rise, and [Night's] black hand has been revealed."
"It's been raining heavily recently, and there's also a drought." Wei Zhuang smiled calmly, "Interesting."
Zhang Liang turned to look at Wei Zhuang, "Brother Wei Zhuang, how can you still laugh at this time? Brother Han went to Nanyang alone."
Wei Zhuang glanced at Zhang Liang lightly.
Of course he knew that Han Fei's trip to Nanyang was absolutely dangerous, so how could he not be prepared.
If you want to catch the fat fish hiding in the deep pool, you need attractive enough bait.
And Han Fei is their most coveted fishing bait.
Zi Nu has already arranged a gang force for Han Fei, which is another gang that is willing to surrender to them when they eliminate the Xinzheng gang forces - [Jiuyihui].
Although Xinzheng is huge, with [Qijuetang], there is no need for another voice with similar power.
Taking advantage of Han Fei's opportunity to go to Nanyang, he also moved this gang to Nanyang.
Nanyang is an important military town. As the western gate of South Korea, it firmly guards the safety of South Korea.
Therefore, supporting the [Jiuyihui] to establish a foothold in Nanyang this time is also to better integrate the entire Korean power in the future.
[Jiuyihui] abides by morality and justice towards heaven, earth and man, and takes 'killing to benevolent and sacrificing one's life for righteousness' as its rule. Most of them come from the lowest level and especially believe in morality.
That’s why we received strong support from [Quicksand].
"Young Master, there is no need to worry. I believe that the Ninth Young Master will successfully resolve the matter in Nanyang." Zi Nu poured a glass of wine for Zhang Liang and said softly.
Zhang Liang sighed and said, "The situation in the DPRK and China has been unpredictable recently. The Fourth Young Master took over the birthday banquet that his grandfather was responsible for in previous years. The Qin envoy also frequently visited the Fourth Young Master's residence."
"The [Yemu] forces headed by Ji Wuye also began to put pressure on my grandfather for unknown reasons."
Hearing this, Zi Nu suddenly frowned.
Speaking of the forces of [Night], [Hundred Birds], a subordinate force, began to move frequently.
Suddenly, Zi Nu felt an unknown throbbing in her heart, as if she had suddenly lost something.
I felt inexplicably panicked.
Zi Nu felt that the [Jiuyihui] that had just transferred to Nanyang might not be able to fully protect Han Fei's safety.
She slowly stood up and walked towards the door, "I'm going out for a while, it may take a while."
Wei Zhuang raised his eyes to look at Zi Nu, then looked back.
He understood that Zi Nu was going to Nanyang to personally protect Han Fei's safety.
Although he didn't understand why Zi Nu suddenly made this decision, Wei Zhuang looked back and was not curious about it.
Zhang Liang watched Zi Nu leave, and when he turned around, he found that Wei Zhuang had also stood up.
"Brother Wei Zhuang?" Zhang Liang made a confused voice.
Wei Zhuang did not explain, picked up the sword and walked out.
Since Zi Nu was prepared for the worst, it was impossible for him not to be wary.
The success they had always had made them somewhat arrogant, almost making them forget that [Yemu]'s true power was actually far greater than them.
If [Night] wants to destroy them regardless of the cost, it is almost impossible for them to resist.
He wants to stop everything as much as possible before it happens.
Zhang Liang frowned as he watched Wei Zhuang leave as well.
[Eight Linglong] Entered Korea, Qin envoys entered Korea, Ying Zheng came to Korea, the three appeared one after another.
Suddenly, Zhang Liang was enlightened.
All along, they have been blinded by the stereotype of "Eight Linglong".
[Eight Linglong] is indeed a feared assassin today, but who stipulated that assassins can only assassinate people and cannot serve as secret guards and protectors.
Qin envoy?
Although the envoy represents the face of a country, almost no one will take action against the envoy of a country, so there is no need for the protection of the famous [Eight Linglong].
So it's obvious.
Ge Nie is the caravan guard in the open, and [Eight Linglong] is the guard in secret.
One light and one dark, Qin is indeed the most powerful country.
Zhang Liang couldn't help but fell into deep thought again.
Ying Zheng has left South Korea, so [Eight Linglong] will also leave with him.
No wonder there is no news about [Eight Linglong] recently, and we couldn’t find [Eight Linglong]’s whereabouts before.
He is not an enemy.

"The current price of food keeps changing every day, and the upward trend shows no sign of stopping." Zhang Liang looked at Wei Zhuang, who was sitting across from him, wanting to hear his opinion.
"The drought in Nanyang is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster." Wei Zhuang held his hands in his arms, paused and continued, "Tomorrow the Qin envoy will return to Qin, and he will also come back to report on his duties."
"Qin Envoy." Zhang Liang lowered his head and murmured, "There seems to be something between Qin Envoy and the Fourth Young Master."
"That's not what we should worry about now." Wei Zhuang raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Liang, "The price of food in Xinzheng has caused quite a commotion, and many princes and nobles have begun to buy food."
Zhang Liang was shocked when he heard this.
Why do the princes and nobles also need to buy food? The food in their houses is enough to last them for decades.
wrong!
"Benefit?"
Wei Zhuang smiled coldly, "The sharp increase in grain prices seems to have moved many people. Nowadays, the amount of grain traded in the Xinzheng market is far greater than the actual amount."
A group of worms that suck human blood, knowing that rising food prices will affect people's livelihood, they still pursue profits.
And the one who sat high on the throne turned a blind eye to this and focused on planning his own birthday party.
Even if you spend most of the money and food in the national treasury, you can't neglect it.
The king is a boat; the common man is water. Water carries the boat, and water overturns the boat.
He never cared about the life or death of civilians.
The life and death of South Korea is actually in the hands of this kind of person.
It's really ridiculous.
"The trading volume is greater than the existing volume?" Zhang Liang exclaimed quietly.
He was surprised that these people would not hesitate to disrupt the normal trading order of the market in order to obtain more profits from rising food prices.
Even if food prices rise, there are actual food transactions and real food.
But the sudden appearance of trading volumes not based on actual grain has inflated the market into a fragile bubble.
Wei Zhuang snorted coldly.
He has long seen clearly the ugly faces of greedy people.
"Your Majesty, is it possible?"
Zhang Liang suddenly lost his voice halfway through his words, because he knew very well what the king was most concerned about now.
He clenched his fists, stood up, and said through gritted teeth, "I'm going to find my grandfather, otherwise if this continues, the whole of Korea will be in chaos."
"It's useless if you go."
Wei Zhuang's cold voice stopped Zhang Liang, who turned to leave, and raised his eyes to Zhang Liang, who turned around and looked at him.
"Your grandfather would not go against the entire aristocracy for the sake of ordinary people. Besides, he himself is the most obvious representative."
