Chapter 704 Yanjing is in Chaos
Han Xiruo spoke intermittently.

The corners of Chu Yun's mouth were tightly pursed. Although she didn't want to think about it, there was no doubt that Xilin's current national power was far above Dayan's.

In the past two years, she has also heard that Dayan lost several wars, big and small, and Dayan sent people to Xilin to seek peace, but they were all rejected.

That's why Yan Shen wanted to set his mind on her.

But he didn't know that in the previous life, Dayan had no choice but to surrender to Xilin. The year she died, Yanjing was already in chaos, probably very similar to the phrase "the wine and meat stinks of the Zhumen have frozen bones." '

The officials who exploited the common people still lived a day-to-day life, but Yanjing no longer had the prosperity and prosperity of the past.

After Han Xiruo left, Chu Yun casually flipped through the ledger, but his heart was already in a mess.

That night, she played the piano until late at night before going to bed.

There is no such thing as impenetrable. Although the imperial court tried its best to suppress it, the wind was still heard in the streets and alleys.

Prices rose soon, and the number of refugees on the streets increased day by day. The government often received reports, but after arresting people, they had no choice but to put them in prison.

Gradually, the prisons in Yanjing City were full, but the number of refugees on the streets did not decrease.

Every time Chu Yun went out, he had to bring a few guards with swords by his side, otherwise there would be danger.

Even Yunyifang, the business has been much slower these days.

Chu Yun hoarded all the money he had in his hand, but many big households seem to have heard the news that the price of food has risen a lot.

In her opinion, food prices will only increase in a short period of time.

"Crown Princess, Mrs. Shizi is here." Hong Chun came in to report.

"Let her in!" Deng Qian stood up immediately.

Soon, Chu Yun was led in.

Deng Qian walked over a few steps: "Did you bring all the ledgers?"

Chu Yun handed over the ledger in his hand.

Deng Qian immediately reached out to take it, opened it, and read it casually.

"I want to bring out that part of me." She stated her purpose.

Chu Yun was not surprised: "When will it be?"

Deng Qian looked at her: "The sooner the better."

Chu Yun didn't ask any more questions, but nodded lightly: "I'll give it to you in three days."

With regret in her eyes, Deng Qian said, "Yun, I know that the shop can't withdraw so much money at once, but now that the country is in crisis, as a princess, I naturally have to lead by example."

"What happened?" Chu Yun asked.

Deng Qian took her to sit down, and the maid immediately served tea.

"There is a war going on at Yanmen Pass, and food and grass are needed, but the treasury is empty. The prince means that he hopes that the courtiers and wealthy businessmen can reduce their expenses and provide some money. The emperor has issued a decree, but it has been two days. There are plenty of rich and rich officials, all of them look like something, and there were people wearing patched official uniforms to go to court in the morning, and everyone was crying poor, but Ah Shen was very angry."

The more Deng Qian spoke, the angrier she became: "It is recorded in our brochures that this aunt can buy hundreds of taels on weekdays. How can they have no money? I don't think they are willing to take it out at all!"

Chu Yun was not surprised by this. If it was said that Dayan was defeated by Xilin, this was the main reason for his defeat, but the real reason was that the upper beam was not right and the lower beam was crooked, and the people who became officials were exploited by the people, which led to people's grievances.

"Although these are all in your name, he probably can't think of me, but I am his princess, and I can't just stand by and watch him make things difficult."

Deng Qian said, "Yun, he is a good prince and will be a wise king in the future."

Chu Yun nodded lightly: "These two bastards tried their best to sell all the things, and the shop also changed hands. I will give you all the money."

"Don't patronize me, save some for yourself," Deng Qian sighed softly: "I know you haven't had much savings in the past two years, and every time you donate clothes, apply medicine, and open a porridge shed, those are not small sums. , you also helped Ah Shen a lot."

Chu Yun didn't speak when he heard this.

"Yunyun, I'm a little scared now." Deng Qian stood up and walked to the window, looking at the branches and leaves outside, "If Xilin insists on attacking Dayan, we couldn't win before, and it will be very difficult to win in the future. What will happen to the monarch?"

Chu Yun's heart skipped a beat, and he looked up.

Deng Qian turned around and turned her back to the bright light outside, her eyes were full of undisguised sadness at this moment: "They couldn't figure it out, if Dayan couldn't get through this catastrophe this time, no amount of money would be worth it." Use it, we will become prisoners of the people of Xilin, including future generations, and we can only be slaves of the people of Xilin for the rest of our lives!"

Chu Yun moved the corner of his mouth: "There will always be a way."

Although Chu Yun said so, she knew that Dayan would definitely lose. She did not see what Deng Qian said in her previous life, but it must have happened after her death.

"I've always wanted to give him a child, but now I'm glad," Deng Qian lowered her head and touched her stomach: "It's fine if I don't have a child, at least I won't worry about him. Wherever he is in this life, I will be happy." Where is it?"

She raised her head and smiled.

Chu Yun's throat was blocked, and she sometimes felt that it would be better if she didn't know about her past life, at least she wouldn't feel as uncomfortable as she does now.

Chu Yun accompanied Deng Qian all afternoon before leaving the palace.

Sometimes people are always afraid that time will go forward, life is obviously dull and boring, but knowing that the road ahead is difficult, she can't wait to stay at this moment, and only hope that there will be no more accidents.

These days, the guards in Yanjing City are much stricter, and the imperial guards patrol the streets every day.

But there are still refugees making riots every day, and people's heads roll down at Caishikou on Chengbei Street every day.

Chu Yun was afraid day by day, so she asked Baimei and the book boy to take out the little food she had accumulated before.

Chu Yun is a womanizer, she doesn't know what to do, Yunyifang has made a lot of money in the past two years, she finally thought about it, and expected that this day would come, and she would set aside the money she spent on weekdays, and use everything else Came to buy food and medicinal materials.

So now that food prices are rising, she doesn't panic much, it's just that the money in her hand is not so durable.

The food relieved the pressure in Yanjing, and the refugees kept the food and lived in the house that Chu Yun bought before.

Yanjing was quiet for a few days, and the palace suddenly issued an imperial order to raid the homes of several officials, and searched a lot of property from inside.

The other officials originally wanted to hide as long as they could, and wanted to stay safe in everything, but when they suddenly saw this house raid, they couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately asked the housekeeper to count the property and turn it over to the state treasury.

Moreover, the imperial court asked the newly appointed censors to account for their property, and if they deceived them, they would be convicted together.

When the grain, grass and silver were finally raised, they planned to send them to Yanmenguan.

On this day, before dawn, a few fast horses rushed into Yanjing City, and a blood-stained memorial was placed on the dragon case.

Zhen Guogong Han Zhen died for the country!
