In the paper, Yan Zhiwei asked the court to issue an order to provide disaster relief and wrote down how to deal with it. However, it was a pity that the court at that time was immersed in the joy of the new year and the competition for the throne. As for matters outside Chang'an City,

They are all indifferent. Those who care about Yan Zhiwei choose to suppress it.

The consequence of this was that the matter was not handled in time enough, resulting in the death of nearly 30,000 refugees. Now things were bad. The refugees rioted collectively. Except for the area under the rule of King Cheng, all other areas of Jiangnan Province were in rebellion.

They revolted and captured many county offices.

When the emperor found out, he was furious and issued orders one after another to kill many officials in Jiangnan Province. Then he started to deal with the refugee problem. The imperial court first sent an imperial envoy with a large number of troops to deal with the rebellious refugees.

After appeasement and suppression, the next step is the food issue.

The rebellion of the refugees was nothing more than a mob. Although they defeated the county government officers and soldiers with their momentum, they were unable to fight against the normal Ming army, so they surrendered one after another to save their lives.

The imperial court chose to forgive these people, except for a few extremely guilty ones, and let go of the rebellion.

This morning, at the court meeting, the emperor asked the courtiers how to control the floods in Jiangnan Road. Yang Zhao, who was well prepared, took out the booklet he had written. After the emperor read it, he smiled with satisfaction and handed over the booklet.

He put it together with the notes from other ministers and announced his withdrawal from the court.

Yang Zhao, who knew the emperor's temperament well, knew that the emperor's smile had profound meaning, and he even knew that the emperor would definitely choose him to go to Jiangnan Road to provide disaster relief.

The nobles of Chang'an City like to play something in their daily life. Some people like cockfighting, some people like beauties, some people like child molestation, and some people like antiques.

Yang Zhao's favorite thing on weekdays is a bird he raised. To be precise, it was a parrot given to him by someone from the south. When Yang Zhao saw the bird for the first time, he loved it very much and kept it for the first time.

Got this bird.

He never taught the bird any language. He just put the bird in the cage on weekdays. Sometimes when he was in a good mood, he would let it out to see the world outside.

This was the case today. Yang Zhao took out the parrot from the cage held by a servant on the side, put it on his shoulder, held some fruits in his hand, and fed it to it.

The parrot is not afraid of people either. If Yang Zhao feeds it something to eat, it will eat it.

Yang Zhao looked at the rising sun in the east, silently calculating the time in his heart.

"You all go down."

Yang Zhao drove away all the servants around him without warning, and then said to the empty courtyard, "Come out."

In the courtyard, a figure suddenly appeared, dressed in black.

A dead soldier of the Yang family.

A dead soldier of the Yang family who had killed Wang Yi countless times.

"I've met you."

Yang Zhao hummed and then asked: "How's it going?"

The visitor knelt on the ground with his head lowered, as if a minister was submitting to a king.

"Although the Seven Lingjiang Heroes we sent blocked Wang Yi on the Lingjiang River, they were unable to kill him completely."

Yang Zhao frowned slightly, looking a little unhappy.

Regarding Wang Yi leaving Chang'an City and going to Youzhou, Yang Zhao never let go. No one from Youzhou could let go, let alone Wang Yi who served in Jinyiwei.

Ji Gang was not here, and it was even impossible for Lu Zhong to leave Chang'an City, so this was the best opportunity to kill Wang Yi. Therefore, Yang Zhao sent out his own soldiers to kill Wang Yi.

But after all, Wang Yi was the person designated by the emperor to go to Youzhou to pay homage to the fallen soldiers. He could not be killed in a big way. He could only be assassinated secretly without leaving any traces.

Yang Zhao's soldiers then sent out the Seven Heroes of Lingjiang, whom Yang had been secretly supporting, to kill Wang Yi.

In fact, if Jia Xu and Leader Ding had not appeared, Wang Yi might really have been killed by them. But everyone was afraid of that accident. The appearance of Jia Xu broke their attempt to kill Wang Yi, and also caused the loss of the Lingjiang Seven Heroes.

heavy.

The dead man reported everything to Yang Zhao, which made Yang Zhao, who was originally in a good mood, very angry and extremely cold.

Yang Zhao has never forgotten the existence of Wang Yi. On the contrary, Yang Zhao is very optimistic about Wang Yi. There are not many young people who can survive under his nose in Chang'an City.

If the two of them were not destined to be enemies, Yang Zhao might have accepted Wang Yi as his successor.

From his martial arts training to his mind, Wang Yi has already gained some admiration from Mr. Yang, who dominates the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty. Assassinations in the streets, chats after the court meeting, and battles for the throne, the two of them fought countless times, but they all ended in a draw. Although Wang Yi in this case

He was not fighting against himself alone, but Yang Zhao had to admit that sometimes the forces behind him were also part of his strength.

The visitor kept kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise his head to look at the head of the family. After all, people like him did not do well in Wang Yi's affairs.

"hehe."

Yang Zhao was not angry, but rather happy, and murmured: "This is interesting. If you die so early, it proves that I was wrong."

When the visitor heard the words of the master of the house, he lowered his head even further and did not dare to look at the master of the house.

Yang Zhao waved his hand, signaling the visitor to step back. The dead man hesitated for a moment, "Sir, what should Wang Yi do?"

Yang Zhao looked at the direction to the north and said softly: "Don't worry about it for now. Now you accompany the lady to get the second half of the book. Wang Yi will send someone to keep an eye on it."

"But, sir, that boy Wang Yi disappeared near Qingshan City. Our people saw him walking into a forest with our own eyes, but when our people walked into the woods, they didn't find any trace of Wang Yi."

Yang Zhao was stunned and asked: "What's going on?"

The visitor quickly replied: "Sir, I don't know why Gu Kaizhi had a fight with Zhao An from Prince Liang's Mansion a few days ago, near Qingshan City. The place where Wang Yi went was too close to those two people, and our people were not there."

I didn't dare to get too close, so I could only follow Wang Yi from a distance, and then..."

The dead man did not say what he said later, and Yang Zhao was a little upset. He even wanted to go to Youzhou in person and kill Wang Yi. But as soon as the thought came to mind, Yang Zhao threw it out of his mind. After all, the matter in Jiangnan Road was important.

, this is related to whether the Yang family behind him can go out of Yunzhou, and it is also the key to whether he can go further in the Ming Dynasty.

"That's all, you just stay outside the woods, contact the Yang family's dead men everywhere, and pay close attention to Wang Yi's whereabouts. Once there is news, you will tell me that I am going to Jiangnan Road recently. You can

Go find me there."

"yes."

Since Wang Yi knew that the key to whether he could get out of Xishan Village was Lu Li, he made breakfast early the next morning and squatted outside Lu Li's room.

With a creak, Lu Li opened the door to his room. Wang Yi, who had been squatting here for a long time, immediately came to Lu Li's side with breakfast in hand.

"Miss Lu, please have breakfast."

Lu Li, who had just opened the door to the room, was startled by Wang Yi's behavior. This was the first time in the past few days that this guy had taken the initiative to show courtesy like this.

Lu Li looked at Wang Yi's harmless smile and tentatively picked up a piece of sesame seed cake. He opened his red lips and took a bite. It tasted good.

Lu Li took the sesame cake and said, "What, you have something to ask me for?"

Wang Yi chuckled, shook his head, and said hurriedly: "What the hell, I saw Miss Lu working too hard on weekdays, so I want to reward you."

Lu Li stretched out his hand and retorted: "No, I don't believe you would be so kind. You should just say you have something to do."

When Wang Yi heard Lu Li talking like this, if he didn't say what the old man said to him, he would have no chance.

"That's right, Miss Lu, your master said that if I want to leave your village, it's entirely up to you, so I..."

"oh."

Lu Li nodded. She finally understood why Wang Yi was so attentive to her. It turned out that the real reason was here.

"Then just wait. When I am in a good mood, you can leave."

When Wang Yi heard this, he realized that leaving Xishan Village was just around the corner, and it was not as difficult as he thought before.

"Then may I ask Miss Lu, when will you be in a good mood?"

Lu Li smiled and said, "Never, just give up."

After that, he ignored Wang Yi, pushed open the courtyard door, and walked out. Wang Yi frowned, did Lu Li do this, was he not going to let himself go out?

But the ritual ceremony in Youzhou could no longer be delayed. I had already wasted a lot of time on the way because of the affairs of the Seven Heroes of Lingjiang and my master. And where was the medical sage's handbook that the old man's master valued.

Everything is still unknown, but Wang Yi knows that if he stays in this village all the time, the search for the Medical Saint's Notes will be far away and out of the question.

When he thought of this, Wang Yi grimaced, picked up the breakfast he had carefully prepared, turned his grief and anger into appetite, and ate all the breakfast he had made.

But since Lu Li's "road" was blocked, Wang Yi had to escape again. No matter whether the old man could stop him or not, he couldn't keep looking at him and not do other things.

I have made up my mind to leave, and it will be useless to stay for a long time.

In the next few days, Wang Yi began to plan his escape. Since he wanted to escape, the first priority was to find out when the old man would no longer be in the village.

As long as the old man is not here, it will not be easy for the villagers who cannot use these martial arts to escape.

As long as you escape, go to the place where the Northern Alliance is, and find the Medical Saint's Handbook, you can return to your hometown, Youzhou. You can also go to the old man to end your mission, and you can repay the old man's transformation.
