Chapter 86

"The emperor loves the people like his own son. I never thought that the officials at the bottom would be so greedy for profit that they would disregard the life and death of the people for their own self-interest. It is extremely hateful!" Yu Qingyan gritted her teeth and said indignantly.

Bai Rushuang snorted coldly: "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. It is impossible to change this situation with just a few people."

Since ancient times, officials and officials have interacted with each other, and the official characters have two words. Even if the common people have words, they can't tell clearly!

"After returning to the palace, I must report the truth to the emperor, and thoroughly punish this group of corrupt officials." Yu Qingyan gritted her teeth and said bitterly.

Bai Rushuang was stunned, and the gaze that looked at Yu Qingyan became warmer, "You are able to love the people like a child, it is really a blessing for the people."

"The people are the sky, but the emperor is just the one who supports the sky for these people." He murmured softly, not noticing the sudden surprise in Bai Rushuang's eyes when he heard these words .

"The Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven, the so-called Son of Heaven, is the sweet son of heaven. And if the Son of Heaven does not have people, it is like a child without a mother. What is the use of winning the world alone!" Yu Qingyan muttered to herself, sincerely.

Having never heard of it and never dared to imagine that someone would describe the emperor like this, Bai Rushuang couldn't help admiring Yu Qingyan a little more in his heart after being amazed.She really has a benevolent heart, and her heart is for all people in the world.The month is right!

Turning around, I was about to leave this sad place.Suddenly hearing the sound of strong wind, Yu Qingyan subconsciously dodged backwards, but unexpectedly, Bai Rushuang pulled her into his arms with force.

A fragrance of epiphyllum invaded the senses, which was the unique smell of Bai Rushuang.Because of testing poison all the year round, her cold body is as cold as jade, without the slightest human temperature.In his arms, it was like falling into a deep ice-cold pool, and Yu Qingyan couldn't help but get goosebumps on her arms.

"Xiaobai, what are you doing..."

Before the words were finished, a huge roar was heard behind him, and water splashed, splashing her and him all over the body.Immediately afterwards, a terrifying and ferocious murderous aura came from behind. It was so dark and cold that it was three points colder than Bai Rushuang's embrace, making Yu Qingyan's back stiff and numb.She wanted to look back, but Bai Rushuang tightly fixed her in her arms, unable to move.

Unexpectedly, Bai Rushuang, who looked like a delicate daughter, would have such great hand strength, which really made Yu Qingyan look at him with admiration.

Bai Rushuang's long sleeves were raised, and the fluffy lop-eared rabbit jumped out of Bai Rushuang's sleeves, and charged straight at the black-clothed killer who was attacking them.The pupils of the lop-eared rabbit, which were as bright as rubies, radiated two streaks of golden light. Wherever the golden light passed, blood mist filled the air.

Immediately afterwards, the lop-eared rabbit opened its mouth wide, and a ball of red light spit out from the lop-eared rabbit's mouth, gradually getting longer and brighter.The red ball slowly grew to the height of a person, rolling and flying towards the black-clothed killer.The black-clothed killer wanted to dodge, but the red ball chased the black-clothed killer as if it had a spirituality, devouring them one by one.

The sound of the wind crackling in my ears, mixed with heart-piercing wailing, shook people's hearts and souls.The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, mixed with the smell of decaying corpses, making people want to vomit.

The red ball turned into red light and dissipated. On the cold and dilapidated muddy ground, only broken and decayed corpses remained.The lop-eared rabbit rolled in the air and landed firmly in Bai Rushuang's open palm.

Bai Rushuang let go of the arms around Yu Qingyan, and hid the lop-eared rabbit back in her arms.He turned around abruptly, took a step forward, and didn't explain much about his behavior just now.He said lightly: "Let's go!"

"what?!"

Looking back, she saw a few decaying corpses lying on the empty and muddy ground. Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, her intuition told her that there must be a killer attacking just now.And Bai Rushuang protected her.Although she didn't know how Bai Rushuang, who didn't know martial arts, protected her, but Bai Rushuang was covered in poisonous poison, it was really not easy to get close to Bai Rushuang.

He opened his mouth to ask, but only saw Bai Rushuang's cold back gradually drifting away.Tilting his head and thinking about it, he knew that even if he asked, he would not answer himself.Yu Qingyan quickly catches up with Bai Rushuang, follows behind Bai Rushuang, raises what she thinks is the brightest smile, "hooks up" Bai Rushuang, but Bai Rushuang rolls her eyes.

Hugging the lop-eared rabbit tightly, ignoring the ghosts around her who kept accosting and testing her, Bai Rushuang ignored her as a non-existent air.

If you want to ask for information from him, it is a job that requires a lot of skills.Little boy, you should practice for another two or three years!
One person chattered, the other remained silent. After leaving Fengjia County, these two seemingly weird duo went straight to Boyang.

Boyang City, the last destination of their trip.

On the way, Yu Qingyan heard that the troops sent by the emperor had arrived in the disaster areas and carried out effective disaster relief operations in the hardest hit areas, and the disaster situation had been initially controlled.The imperial physicians are also donating medicines in various places, trying to control the epidemic within a limited range.Under the supervision of the Imperial Forest Army, officials from all over the country did not dare to be slow in opening beam warehouses and releasing relief rice, and they truly managed to spend every cent of the relief money on the victims.

On the day of arriving in Boyang, Yu Qingyan received a letter from Lu Junliu, saying that he had contacted Ren Huaide, and that Ren Huaide had followed her order to start an investigation. Huaide postponed his return.Yu Qingyan told him that she had arrived in Boyang safely and was protected by the Imperial Forest Army, and she told Lv Junliu not to worry.

Seven days later, Yu Qingyan received another letter from Feige from Lv Junliu, saying that he and Ren Huaide were progressing smoothly, and that a large number of corrupt officials who evaded taxes, corrupted the law, falsely preached imperial decrees, embezzled disaster relief funds, and conscripted troops and land indiscriminately had been seized and mastered. The exact criminal evidence of the dirty officials will be reported after everything is found out.Yu Qingyan told Lv Junliu to be careful, to protect Ren Huaide's safety, to complete the task and return as soon as possible.

Along with the letter, enclose a sweet kiss, and tell him that I miss him very much.

Because of Yu Qingyan's practical and effective anti-disaster relief operations, the purpose of seeking welfare for the people and doing practical things for the people has won unanimous praise from the local people.The common people praised "Prime Minister Yu is good", "Prime Minister Yu is benevolent", "Prime Minister Yu is the reincarnation of Pusa", praised Yu Qingyan to the extent that there is nothing in the sky, and there is nothing in the earth. The statue of immortality is erected with jade face!

Yu Qingyan signaled everyone to calm down.She is not a god-man, nor does she need any longevity statue.Only when the people are good, is it really good!
Under the active investigation of Lu Junliu and Ren Huaide, all the corrupt officials hidden in the dark are now exposed to Yu Qingyan one by one.Yu Qingyan held the imperial decree as an arrow, regardless of the reason, all corrupt officials were killed, and their family members were exiled to the army; as for those wealthy merchants who took advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune for the country, they would all be beheaded!He dared to falsely preach the imperial decree to destroy the reputation of our heavenly dynasty. After being paraded in the streets to show the public, he was exposed to the scorching sun at Caishikou for three days, then skinned and boned, and thrown into a mass grave to feed the dogs.

Such a resolute and resolute iron-fisted method has deterred many local officials.When they saw Yu Qingyan, it was like seeing Yama from hell. They were all submissive and cautious, lest one of them accidentally catch fire and become the soul of Yu Qingyan's sword.Under Yu Qingyan's careful education, many officials changed their minds and served the people sincerely.With everyone's concerted efforts, the disaster and epidemic situation were quickly brought under control, and the post-disaster reconstruction work began immediately.

In order to strengthen the embankments and bridges, Yu Qingyan specially consulted the old local boatmen and embankment workers, and learned a lot of water conservancy knowledge from them.She applied what she had learned, and sent talented people to restructure the dams, build bridges and beams, and repair damaged river embankments.At the same time, she promised to ask the court to exempt the Huainan area from taxes for three years, and encourage the people to rely on themselves and rebuild their homes.The people were full of enthusiasm and energy, and came together to build new houses.They also delivered food and wine to the soldiers in Xiudi Gufang. The soldiers and civilians were a family and had a great time.

"The army is the army of the people; it is the people who support us, so we must seek happiness for the people."

Once, while inspecting the embankment reinforcement project, Yu Qingyan sighed in front of the soldiers who were working hard.At that time, Pei Yekai, who had just learned about Huzhou City, hurried to Boyang, was standing beside her.Hearing her exclamation, he asked, "Qingyan, what does the army look like in your mind?"

"Military and civilian, have you heard of it?" In fact, it is the modern reserve army, who farms and raises farmers in leisure time, and goes to the battlefield with swords and guns in wartime.

Pei Yekai's eyes showed surprise, it was the first time he heard this argument in his life.He asked again: "Qingyan, what does the country look like in your mind?"

It is still the four simple words, "Xanadu."

Military and civilian use?Xanadu?Yu Qingyan's thoughts are really unique, beyond what ordinary people can guess!It's just that in practice... I'm afraid it's quite difficult...

Military and civilian use, encouraging people to spontaneously organize self-defense forces to protect their homes; Xanadu, a completely ideal Datong society, where children are cared for, old people are cared for, land is given to the tiller, everyone is equal in the society, and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment.

This is a lofty and distant ideal. Although beautiful, it is unrealistic and impossible to realize!
"People are always selfish, and it's human nature to seek personal gain for selfish reasons. Qingyan, even if you can shock this group of corrupt officials in a short period of time and make them reform, once you leave, there is no guarantee that they will not It will revert to old ways. After all, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and there are some things that you can't control even if you want to!"

"Brother Pei, you are right! I am also considering this matter."

You have to think of a long-term solution that works.

At this time, Lv Junliu took Ren Huaide, who was wearing a seventh-rank official uniform, up the embankment and walked towards them.

"Qing Yan..."

Seeing the long-lost Ruyu Jiayan, Lu Junliu couldn't help but quickly walked forward, holding Yu Qingyan's hands tightly.Between the meeting of eyes, the incomprehensible parting is affectionate.

"Qingyan, I'm back..."

"Jun Liu..."

Hand, couldn't help caressing the thin cheeks of Lv Junliu Fengchen, and outlined them inch by inch. Yuqing's face was full of pity, and the heartache and worry could not be concealed between the brows, "You are thin..."

Holding her hand, pressing it against her cheek, breathing in the familiar intoxicating fragrance, he said sincerely: "Qingyan, seeing you are safe, I feel at ease..."
