Taoist help me live forever

Chapter 43 Help
It is not known who leaked the news.

The rebel army is approaching and will invade Changning City in a few days.

No one thought that the imperial court would be an opponent. This was the prestige of the rebel army's victorious battles.

Rebellion is like this. It is difficult at the beginning, but once it becomes a climate, it is like a prairie fire, which emerges endlessly and is difficult to extinguish.

After all, where there are people, there is oppression and exploitation.

The Yue State has been established for more than [-] years, and various class conflicts have long been like a powder keg, exploding at any point.

However, due to the intervention of extraordinary power, the resistance forces in the past generally would not make any troubles and would be quickly suppressed, thus creating the appearance of the prosperity of the Yue Kingdom.

But the Guangnan rebels broke this strange phenomenon, so some people are willing to risk their lives, wanting to change the fate of being trampled on the bottom forever.

Someone in Changning City has already contacted the rebels and took the initiative to act as an internal response.

For this reason, the city defense battalion led by General Di has already entered the city, announcing that Changning City has entered a state of military control, and will behead several people at Caishikou every day.

But the killing couldn't suppress people's hearts, and the whole Changning City was in chaos.

All kinds of prices in the city have skyrocketed, and ordinary people have emptied their homes just to fill their stomachs, but they are all struggling.

They had a glimmer of hope that when the rebels were defeated everything would go back to the way it was before.

But at this time, someone saw a ship suddenly leaving the port that had been blocked for a long time.

It turned out that the rich and powerful in the city were not optimistic about the direction of the war, and they all boarded the boat going north with their families.

The relationship network of these people is intricate, and the adults and generals in Changning City took advantage of it and did not stop them. Even they secretly sent their families to the ship.

So everyone's mentality collapsed.

In just a few days, before the rebels came, all kinds of violent crimes in the city skyrocketed.

Bewitched by the various insiders of the rebel army, ordinary people thought in their hearts that they had been abandoned, street hooligans took the opportunity to make trouble, and the black-hearted boss made a fortune.

The city defense battalion ruthlessly killed a few crops without suppressing them, and many middle and low-level officers also secretly joined the riot and carnival.

As for the victims outside the city, it was said that they wanted relief and diversion, but they only gave porridge for a few days, barely giving them hope.

Until the chaos broke out in the city, the yamen was too busy to take care of themselves, so they didn't even give out porridge.

The palace sponsored a total of 100 million taels of silver, in exchange for a few days of porridge for the victims, and all the rest of the silver was missing.

Even Yu Xian, who was mentally prepared, called it shit.

He had already overestimated the greed of these officials, but he did not expect to underestimate it.

No one really wants to resist, they are all planning to make a fortune and run away. As for the fate of ordinary people, no one cares.

It's not that no one cares at all, such as the one in front of him.

Yu Xian rubbed his brows, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who didn't know when a few strands of snow had been added to his temples, and smiled wryly:

"Boss Zhou, you'd better go back, the princess won't see you."

It turned out that Zhou Bai, the chief arrester of the yamen, saw that the chaos in the city was difficult to control, and saw that his immediate boss was only interested in making money, so he wanted to invite the princess to come out, and in the name of the palace, he called on everyone to unite and unite to resist the chaos.

Zhou Bai clasped his fists and said, "Brother Yu, Zhou did not do this trip for himself, he just wanted to gain a chance for the millions of people in the city. I hope you will see me and the princess for the sake of the fact that you and I fought side by side. Up side."

Yu Xian silently rolled his eyes.

The concubine is a soft-hearted woman, and she is also an emotional woman. In case she has a heart attack, she is really persuaded by Zhou Bai and decides to fight to the end.

This is not to embarrass him.

It is undeniable that he had some unreasonable thoughts about his princess who amazed him when they first met.

Coupled with the fact that the two have been getting along intimately under the pretext of nurturing the little prince in the past few months, the already lonely princess has long been tempted by this man with good looks and intelligence beside her.

After all, with her status, there are not many men around her that she can get in touch with frequently, and Eunuch Li must be counted as one.

It's not surprising that a long-term body and a ulterior motive will lead to love over time.

If it weren't for the scruples of the world, Yu Xian felt that his ambition of being a thief would have been fulfilled long ago.

"Brother Zhou, I know you are a good person, but the building is about to collapse, and it cannot be saved by you alone.
The empress is just a weak woman, she can't make decisions about this kind of family and country affairs, and she doesn't want to make decisions.

When you impose this responsibility on her, have you ever considered her wishes?

In my eyes, the mood of the people in the city is not as important as hers alone.If you talk about this with her, it will inevitably make her feel sad, it is better not to bother her. "

Yu Xian's expression changed suddenly, and he spoke righteously.

As the chief arrester of the Yamen, Zhou Bai has been investigating cases for many years, so Yu Xian's words should not be too straightforward in his ears.

With an expression of disbelief on his face, he pointed at Yu Xian and said in a deep voice:
"You, you and the princess?"

It's almost a dog and a woman.

Yu Xian snorted coldly and said: "The empress is pure and pure, Yu has only admiration, Brother Zhou, don't think too much."

Zhou Bai's eyes were gloomy, and he sighed deeply: "Brother Yu, but I really have no choice."

As he spoke, he bowed his hands to Yu Xian, lowered his head to his waist, and his voice was full of sorrow, as if a hero was dying.

"I beg you!"

He is a master of martial arts, and he is well-known both in the officialdom and among the people. He has never been so humble in front of his immediate superior, the county sheriff.

At the beginning, even Chen Xiao recognized his character and was unwilling to kill him.

Yu Xian stretched out his hand and lifted it, so Zhou Bai was lifted up again.

"Brother Zhou's great gift, I am ashamed to receive it, but I still won't let you see the princess, so be it."

Yu Xian pulled out his palm into his pocket, and a blue and white porcelain vase appeared.

"Before, in order to find out the case of the assassination of the prince, I used extreme methods and made all the priests in the mansion take the seven-day death pill. This bottle is the antidote.

Taking one pill can relieve their life for seven days, and here is the prescription for the antidote. "

Zhou Bai was shocked by Yu Xian's strength, but his eyes were quickly attracted by the porcelain bottle in Yu Xian's hand.

He understood what leisure meant.

The worship of the palace can be regarded as the essence of a city. If he has the antidote in his hand, the power he can control is far more than the few policemen under him, and he can even become the decisive force in the whole city.

Yu Xian continued: "I don't care about their infamy behind their backs, nor am I afraid of their methods.

But Brother Zhou, you are a half-life hero, if you take this bottle, your reputation will be completely ruined in the future, you have to think carefully. "

Zhou Bai shook his head and smiled wryly: "Zhou has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he has set his ambition to be a hero, but with my own strength, it is really far from enough.

Warriors rely on martial arts to show off fierceness, and officials bully goodness. In order to change this phenomenon, Zhou entered the public house halfway, and was scolded by his peers as a court eagle dog, but he never explained it at all.

Now that the whole city is in danger, using the reputation of a certain person in Zhou to save thousands of lives is already a huge profit. "

He took the celadon vase in Yu Xian's hand and bowed again, but he couldn't bow no matter what.

He couldn't help but secretly sighed again at Yu Xian's strength, if he was willing to take action, it would greatly alleviate the crisis in the city, but he couldn't force it.

He had no choice but to cup his hands in thanks and said: "Brother Yu, after this farewell, or if we don't see each other again, Zhou will leave, take care of yourself."

"Take care of yourself."

Yu Xian clasped his fists in return.

Even if he doesn't extend a helping hand to this kind of good person who has paid for everyone in the snowstorm, he won't make trouble.

What's more, the Chief Zhou made him the first 1 taels after letting him come to the ordinary world, and the two of them have a love for each other.
