The king behind the empress

Chapter 20 The empress who wants to run away
The speculation about the accelerator just flashed in Mo Zizai's mind and then stopped.

He has always been a pragmatist, this accelerator loves whatever it is, as long as it can make him stronger, he can do whatever he wants.

Mo Zizai, who threw the accelerator aside, continued the topic just now, "Da Zhou's luck is shattered, and you will also be severely injured?"

"Well, now my strength is too weak to bear the backlash of Da Zhou's luck."

Tang Weiyi thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty: "But as long as you persist for a few more years, it will be fine after Xiaolu reaches the human realm."

"That's right, that's right." Tang Weilu nodded wildly like a chicken pecking at rice, and said, "And I have discussed with my sister, we will leave Dazhou together when we reach the human realm."

"???"

Mo Zizai raised a question mark on his forehead, why he couldn't understand these words, "Leaving Dazhou? Why?"

"My sister said that Da Zhou is hopeless."

Tang Weilu took it for granted and said, "We can't be buried with you."

"This... is this hopeless?"

Mo Zizai feels that the progress is a little fast. He just came to the palace, and the country is about to perish?

"What about the backlash of luck?"

"nothing!"

Tang Weilu patted her turbulent breasts, and said to Mo Zizai: "At that time, my sister and I should be able to count as two people. My sister bears the backlash of luck, and at most she has no cultivation base."

"But it's not me. At that time, I was a master of the human realm, and I will definitely be able to protect the safety of you and your sister."

Is there still such an operation?Mo Zizai was stunned, and turned his head to Tang Weiyi to ask for confirmation.

Tang Weiyi nodded with a slightly depressed mood, and said, "Well, this is the result of my discussion with Xiaolu."

"Besides, I told Uncle Mo about this when I took over the throne, and he agreed."

When she said this, Tang Weiyi subconsciously looked away from Mo Zizai, looking a little guilty.

Because it was Mo Congyi who was dying, when Tang Weiyi talked about this decision, Mo Congyi looked at her for a while, then closed his eyes, and passed away without saying anything.

So this agreement is actually somewhat watery.

But she doesn't care so much, no matter what, she will not let Mo Zizai be buried with Da Zhou.

"Then you won't avenge your father's revenge?"

"No clue at all, no clue at all."

Tang Weiyi shook her head slightly. In the past few years, she had secretly investigated many times, but nothing was found out, as if her father had an accident back then and was simply killed.

"If we can't find out this person when we reach the human realm, I'm going to give up."

Tang Weiyi was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "I think, if my father has a spirit in heaven, he certainly doesn't want me and Xiaolu to die in Dazhou in order to avenge him."

Looking at the empress who had made up her mind and wanted to run away with her, Mo Zizai didn't know whether to be comforted or helpless.

But no matter what, it's a good thing for a daughter-in-law to save her own life, but is it really impossible to save her this week?

"Is the situation really that bad?"

"more or less."

Tang Weiyi's face was a little tired. In the past three years, she was too tired to fight wits and courage with those old foxes in the court.

"Partisanship is serious, officials are corrupt, there are three kingdoms outside, and there are natural disasters inside, and the court is unable to relieve disasters."

"Now, only one spark is needed, and Da Zhou may immediately set off a prairie fire."

Speaking of this, Tang Weiyi held Mo Zizai's hand tightly, "And what I can do now is to delay the sparks from igniting as much as possible."

Tang Weiyi is an out-and-out talented woman. She is familiar with history and is well versed in ancient and modern times. She is really very familiar with the situation that Da Zhou is facing now.

This is almost the case every time the dynasty changes, and this is why she is so pessimistic about the future of Da Zhou.

"Foreign enemies, internal troubles."

Regarding these questions, Mo Zizai thought about them all night yesterday, so after pondering for a while, he asked, "How much money is left in the treasury now?"

"And the army you can command, how many more?"

"There's not a penny left in the treasury."

A wry smile appeared on Tang Weiyi's face, and she said helplessly, "There was no money in the national treasury as early as last year, and the 500 million taels of silver just received this year have basically been distributed without entering the national treasury."

"As for the army, apart from the [-] Yulin Army guarding the capital, there is only the [-] troops of the Marquis of Zhenyuan in the east, but the [-] troops of the Marquis of Zhenyuan don't have any elite at all, and they rely entirely on the convenience of defending the city. I'm trying hard with the Three Kingdoms."

"But fortunately, Zhenyuan Hou Laocheng is prudent. Every time he guards a city, he will first move the people away, and then rely on the city wall to consume them. Then, when the supplies are almost consumed, they will retreat to the next city. Although it is very difficult to resist, but It survived too."

"But just like that, officials in the court often impeach Zhenyuanhou, saying that he lost several cities in a row and should be punished for his crime."

"Although I know that they have ulterior motives, sometimes I still can't help but want to send these impeached people to the front line, let them widen their eyes and see that Zhenyuan Hou used only less than [-] troops to face How can we fight an elite force that is several times his size without losing the city? Wipe them all out?"

Looking at Tang Weiyi who was furious, Mo Zizai chuckled, "Then, throw them over there."

"There are many things that I can't do if I think about it."

Tang Weiyi shook her head, with a deep helplessness in her expression, she had too many constraints in the court.

Seeing Tang Weiyi's expression, Mo Zizai just smiled lightly and didn't say much.

He thought about it all night yesterday, and came up with a solution that was not a solution. He wanted to save Da Zhou. He thought it would be difficult to persuade Tang Weiyi to accept his solution today, but now it seems that the difficulty has dropped sharply.

However, there is another prerequisite for this method, that is, Da Zhou is not really at the end of his rope.

"Wei Yi, Da Zhou has no money, is it because the treasury has no money, or the country has no money?"

"The country has no money or the treasury has no money?"

Tang Weiyi didn't quite understand, and she was slightly puzzled, "Is there a difference?"

"Of course there are differences."

Mo Zizai nodded without hesitation and said: "If the country has no money, it means that Da Zhou has been exhausted by my father, so the three of us can look at the map now to see which country we will settle in later. "

"But if it's just that the treasury has no money, then we can still find a way to save Da Zhou."

After hearing Mo Zizai's words, Tang Weilu was stunned, obviously she didn't understand what Mo Zizai was talking about. Don't they mean the same thing because they don't have money?

And Tang Weiyi was thoughtful, and after pondering for a while, she said: "Da Zhou must be rich. When Uncle Mo was the emperor a few years ago, he implemented the policy of recuperating and enriching the people, so Da Zhou The people of the country were relatively rich a few years ago."

"But it's useless. Years of disasters have exhausted the foundation of Dazhou. Most of the people's money and food have been plundered by those corrupt officials and powerful families."

"At first, Uncle Mo planned to take action against those powerful families, but then my father's incident happened."
