Qiqi sighed quietly: "He is really cunning, and he knows the thoughts of those people clearly.
Her fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair, as if thinking of something.
Quan De'an said: "The old slave has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not."
"Say, don't sell it" Quan De'an said: "The old slave thought that it was not appropriate to turn away the refugees at the beginning, after all, those refugees were all the people of Dakang, and now rumors are spreading everywhere, saying that the court does not care about the lives of the people. ” Qiqi glared at him and said, "You didn't say it earlier" Quan De'an said: "Your Highness has never liked ministers to discuss state affairs. ” Qiqi waved his hand and said: "Forget it, it's not a big deal, pass on the will of the palace, reward Hu Xiaotian for his meritorious work in the chaos, crown him as the governor of the capital, reward 10,000 taels of gold, 200 horses of silk, and Yunyang will be handed over to him for temporary management." ” "What" Quan De'an almost thought he had heard it wrong, but he immediately understood what Qiqi meant, since the matter has become a fact, Qiqi is not easy to change, Hu Xiaotian is now in power, and this time he took Yunyang in the name of quelling the chaos, which is actually equivalent to a robbery.
Qiqi's way to deal with it is to appease him for the time being, and then make a final decision when he has the opportunity to do so later.
Soon after Quan De'an left, Yang Lingqi came to ask for a meeting.
When he came to Qiqi, he noticed that Her Royal Highness the princess had a bad face, and guessed in his heart that it had something to do with Yunyang.
Sure enough, Qiqi snorted coldly and said, "Yang Lingqi, you came up with a good idea for this palace."
Yang Lingqi said: "I don't know what His Highness is referring to" Qiqi got up and walked towards him slowly, Yang Lingqi was forced by the might, and slowly lowered his head, not daring to look at Qiqi with his eyes.
Qiqi said: "You really have a good idea to keep Xichuan refugees on the border line and not allow anyone to enter the customs." ” Yang Lingqi said: "Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't want to take Xichuan, now is the best opportunity, as long as Xichuan is in civil strife, it will definitely be self-defeating." ” Qiqi sneered: "It's Yunyang who is self-defeating, and now Hu Xiaotian takes Yunyang without a single soldier, Yang Lingqi, this palace really doesn't know if you are helping him or me."
Yang Lingqi said: "If Your Highness doubts my loyalty, you can cut out my heart and see, Ling Qi is willing to die to prove his innocence" His face was full of excitement.
Qiqi sighed lazily and said: "This palace is not doubting your loyalty, but doubting your judgment, you proposed to block Xichuan and let Xichuan have civil strife, but Hu Xiaotian tried every means to open up." ” Yang Lingqi said: "Even if he makes an opening, he can't control the overall situation, this earthquake has interrupted the roads in the northeast of Xichuan and other places, and Yunyang's strategic position is naturally not as important as in the past." ” Qiqi said: "You are suggesting that the palace give Yunyang to him."
Yang Lingqi said: "The matter has come to this, even if it is too late to use troops against him, it is better to be a favor, Hu Xiaotian even if he has great ability, it is impossible to open up the road to Xizhou in a short time, according to me, Xichuan has affected a lot of refugees this time, and there are currently as many as 300,000 trapped at the border, since he wants to do good deeds, he might as well preach for him, so that all refugees can go to defect."
Although Hu Xiaotian's strength is not bad, with his current financial resources, he is afraid that he will not be able to afford the food and clothing of so many refugees, and the result can be imagined. ” Qiqi looked at Yang Lingqi meaningfully and said, "You shouldn't let me down again this time."
Yang Lingqi said: "Ling Qi is always thinking about the great cause of Her Royal Highness the princess, if there is a little selfish distraction, I will not die well."
Qiqi heard him make a poisonous oath, and his pretty face turned cold: "Enough, what to do with this kind of poisonous oath, you just need to do things in a down-to-earth manner, and this palace will naturally see it clearly." ” When Hu Xiaotian received Yunyang, he also got a hundred tortoiseshell chariots and two hundred sky-shaking crossbows, which were originally provided by the Tianji Bureau to Su Yuchi to deal with the weapons of the Xichuan army, and with the pacification of the Yunyang war, lying in the treasury, Hu Xiaotian was like a treasure, although mechanical manufacturing is not his forte, but Hu Xiaotian can also see the ingenuity of the structure of these war machines, which use a large number of bolts and nuts and other things, it seems that these are not his first creation, from which it can also be inferred that Hong Beimo has mastered a lot of mysterious technology, which also added evidence to Mrs.
Xu's words.
Qiqi's reaction did not surprise Hu Xiaotian, as the actual ruler of Dakang, she should know how to weigh the pros and cons, and choosing to make concessions in the current situation is tantamount to a wise move.
Of course, Qiqi is not so simple, the recent surge in the number of refugees is also related to her deliberate release of water at the border, leaving a passage for refugees to flee to Hu Xiaotian's territory.
As Yang Lingqi predicted, Hu Xiaotian will inevitably be under pressure because of the arrival of refugees, and it is not so easy to be a savior.
During this time, Hu Xiaotian has been staying in Yunyang, although he took Yunyang without a single soldier, but after all, Su Yuchi has a lot of influence in the Yunyang army, Hu Xiaotian is worried that the situation will be repeated, so he personally stayed in Yunyang, first, to appease the Yunyang soldiers, and second, to ensure that the refugees enter the customs in an orderly manner.
Throughout history, if the refugee problem is not handled properly, it will lead to a series of contradictions, Hu Xiaotian has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in order to avoid problems as much as possible, and in just one month, the number of refugees he has accepted has reached 100,000, and the number is still increasing.
The rainy season of Yongjiang finally came to an end temporarily, the long-lost scorching sun appeared in the sky, Hu Xiaotian ushered in his high staff Zhuge Guanqi early in the morning, Zhuge Guanqi came with the grain ship this time, after Hu Xiaotian took over Yunyang, a large area was carved out between Yunyang and Xingzhou for refugees to live temporarily, and the biggest problem facing him is still food shortage.
Zhuge Guanqi came to the mansion where Hu Xiaotian lived, and Hu Xiaotian had already personally greeted him.
Zhuge Guanqi bowed and said: "Subordinates see the lord" Hu Xiaotian said with a smile: "Brother Guanqi doesn't need to be polite, these days, I'm suffocated, I have a lot of things to say to Brother Guanqi, and there are a lot of questions I want to ask you." ” Zhuge Guanqi said with a smile: "The lord killed me, don't dare to ask for advice." ” Hu Xiaotian invited him to sit down in the flower hall, and the servant brought tea and stepped back.
Zhuge Guan Qi said: "Congratulations to the lord." ” Hu Xiaotian knew what he was talking about as soon as he heard it, and said with a smile: "It's nothing more than a false name, He Xizhi has Princess Yongyang who can't eat me alive now, but she can't take care of so much energy now, and she doesn't dare to challenge our Jinyumeng easily." ” Zhuge Guanqi said: "No matter what, it is a happy event after all, by the way, this time the princess wanted to come in person, but the lord sent someone to say that no one of them was allowed to come, and several mothers were very disappointed." ” Hu Xiaotian sighed, in fact, he didn't want to see Long Xiyue and a few of them, but now that Yunyang was decided, the situation was not stable, and Hu Xiaotian was worried that they would be in danger when they came.
Zhuge Guanqi naturally understood his intentions, and said softly: "The lord has been away from Dongliang County for many days, and it is time to go back and have a look." ” Hu Xiaotian nodded and said, "I also want to go back, but the situation here is still unstable, and there are still refugees coming over every day, and I can't leave yet." ” Zhuge Guanqi said: "According to preliminary statistics, as of today, there are 100,000 Xichuan refugees in the reception of the lord, and they are scattered to various settlements according to your wishes. ” "Is there enough food?"
Zhuge Guanqi said: "According to the situation of our grain storage, if it is only these 100,000 people, we can still afford it, at least until this autumn harvest without any problems." ” Hu Xiaotian nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's good" The situation was more optimistic than he expected.
Zhuge Guanqi said: "But the flow of refugees shows no signs of abating, and the number of refugees who have come to our side from the south has been increasing recently, and if this situation is allowed to continue, we may have to face more pressure from refugees." ” Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "The imperial court refuses to accept Xichuan refugees, and now I offer to accept these refugees, and they simply set aside a road for all Xichuan refugees to come to us." ” Zhuge Guanqi nodded, this matter is obvious, Hu Xiaotian designed to take away Yunyang and let the Dakang Imperial Court suffer a dark loss, one report and one report, and letting Xichuan refugees rush into Hu Xiaotian's territory is one of their means of revenge.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I once said that I will accept as many refugees as I come. ” Zhuge Guanqi said slyly: "There seems to be such a thing." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "If I take back the arrow that I shoot if I say it, it will be tantamount to losing face in front of the world." ” Zhuge Guanqi said: "Does the lord plan to lead all the soldiers and civilians to take risks for the sake of a word, so that the good situation that was hard to achieve will be retreated?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "These days, I have always hesitated, the 100,000 victims should not affect our economy, but if it continues, it is difficult to say."
He looked at Zhuge and said, "What does Mr. think I should do?"
Zhuge Guanqi said: "Water can carry a boat can also overturn a boat, the lord's approach this time is full of courage, although from the current situation, may make our economy face a severe test, but if you can successfully survive this test, the lord not only won the hearts of the people, won the admiration of the people of the world, but also got hundreds of thousands of loyal to your people."
At present, the biggest problem we are facing is actually a lack of population, this time the lord took Yunyang, which means that we have controlled a large area from Jicheng in the west, to the mouth of the Yongjiang River in the east, to Luocang in the north, and to Yunze in the south, which is enough to feed ten times the current population. ” The cold has not yet healed, fever and cough, weakness, insisted on writing two chapters, my mind is a little confused, I hope to get better soon.
