Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

"father!!"

After seeing a dug-out figure covered in mud, a child immediately shouted, staggered over and ran over, then threw himself into the man's arms.

Fortunately, the area near the dam area in Yuzhou is extremely rich in spiritual energy, so everything here contains spiritual energy, and the soil quality is also very different from the outside world. Otherwise, the people who were buried by the mudslide for a quarter of an hour would probably be gone even if they were dug out.

"Don't worry, little doll."

Zhang Shiping's son Zhang Yu, who was wearing the Qianhu standard armor, looked at the man he and his soldiers had rescued. For some reason, the previous anger suddenly dissipated a lot, and he even felt much better.

He looked at the crying child lying on top of the common people, chuckled, and said, "Your father is fine. He was just too weak and passed out. He will recover after taking a good rest."

Hearing this, the child quickly stopped crying, and then stood up from his father suddenly. His thin body bowed heavily to Changyu, and at the same time he spoke inarticulately:

"Many...thank you so much Jun...Master Jun for saving...saving my father, Master Jun...please...please accept Hu Zi's bow!"

Looking at the little baby kneeling solemnly in front of him, something in Chang Yu's heart seemed to be severely touched.

There seemed to be something indescribable welling up in my chest, but I didn't know why it was stuck in my throat, making it difficult to describe.

Chapter 81: Plan (the third update is coming, please read it!!)

With the full and efficient rescue efforts of more than 3000 well-trained and well-cooperated Yuzhou guards and hundreds of Xuanji guards with astonishing strength, all the people below were rescued in just over a quarter of an hour.

Even the bodies of dead people were exhumed.

It's still quite a while before Fu Huan's agreed two-quarter time.

Originally, Lu Chen thought that it would take at least half an hour for the Yuzhou Guards to rescue people, which was two quarters of an hour. This was also the efficiency of a normal army. However, he did not expect that the efficiency of the Yuzhou Guards would be so amazing. They were an elite force.

And at the back, those big-headed soldiers and hundreds of thousands of households didn't know what they were doing, and they suddenly felt like they were given a shot of chicken blood. They had been digging non-stop for more than ten minutes, but they were digging faster and faster in the back. The task was completed amidst the cheers and grateful expressions of the people.

Lu Chen originally thought of using his own spiritual power to activate the Overlord Technique in the Jidao Sword to stabilize the mountain and cover everyone's retreat when Fu Huan couldn't hold on any longer. In the end, he completely exhausted his spiritual power and died due to exhaustion. The plan to die in the line of duty was aborted.

However, this time the impromptu plan failed, Lu Chen didn't feel much at all.

He was never a good guy, but he wasn't a villain either.

Just an ordinary person who couldn't be more ordinary.

Seeing the people not far away who kept kowtowing to the Yuzhou Guard and expressed their gratitude, he was slightly touched, but he didn't say much.

Shaking his head gently, Lu Chen didn't think any more.

The future is long and there are many opportunities to commit suicide, so there is no need to worry about one or two failures.

He took a gentle breath, and then suddenly shouted: "The whole army obeys the order!"

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers of Yuzhou Guard immediately looked at Zhang Shiping.

The people looked curiously at the young man riding a tall horse and being protected by two hundred guards in black armor.

"Look what I will do?!"

Noticing everyone's gazes, Zhang Shiping, who had just asked a few people who had kowtowed to him and cut their scalps to get up impatiently, frowned slightly, and then said with a cold face: "Didn't I already explain it to you? When the Governor was here, he was in charge. Now that the Governor is giving orders, you can just follow the orders directly and don't need to worry about me."

Hearing this, all the soldiers immediately looked at Lu Chen, a young scribe who was about the same age as most of them, riding on a majestic horse.

Lu Chen stepped forward on his horse, and under the gaze of everyone gathered, he loudly ordered: "Help the people to mount their horses, and the whole army retreats!"

Another order that seemed likely to aggravate the resentment of the Yuzhou guards.

Hearing this, the people were immediately shocked and shouted: "It can't be done, it can't be done!"

"My lord, I will leave on my own. How dare I bother you all?!"

"How can we, lowly people, dirty the war horses of all the military masters?"

"You military masters showed great mercy and saved our relatives. This is a great favor that we will never be able to repay in our lifetime. How can we let the military masters do this for humble people like us?"

"We, the common people, really can't afford to be such a military master..."

"..."

The people kept pushing away, but Lu Chen insisted without hesitation: "This governor says you can afford it, so you can afford it."

As he said that, he looked around at the Yuzhou Guards not far away and said without a doubt: "Time is running out, don't waste your time, take them out of here right away!"

As if they were not used to Lu Chen's direct orders, the Yuzhou guards paused for a while and then responded loudly at the same time:

"promise!"

Seeing their response, Lu Chen nodded, and then without looking at them, he pinched the horse's belly and asked the horse to turn around and prepare to leave.

Although the ultimate goal was not achieved, it was to deepen Yuzhou Guard's resentment towards him and use this as a starting point to gradually make the entire military attaché system unable to tolerate him, even to the point of becoming irreconcilable. This goal is still very successful so far.

You must know that the imperial court is composed of monarchs and ministers. In addition to the emperor, the monarch also has a royal family, which represents the supreme imperial power. The ministers are divided into civil and military officials. Military ministers are also a powerful political force in the court.

If he could be hated and targeted by the entire military attache system, Lu Chen would be close to the immortal world.

Of course, it is absolutely impossible for him to let go of the civil servant system, a behemoth that can even compete with the monarchy. After all, as long as it can cause the civil servants to attack it at all costs and create such a huge trend that even the emperor has to compromise, he will 100% It will be cold.

It's just that those rebellious military attachés who look down on the people are easier to penetrate, and at the same time, they have the opportunity now.

When Lu Chen, who was thinking about how to deepen Zhang Shiping's hostility next, turned around, he didn't notice that there was something strange in the eyes of several young military attachés headed by Zhang Yu who looked at him.

They glanced at the overjoyed people on the side, and then looked at Lu Chen's back. The edges and corners had not been removed, so he looked heroic. There was a look of contemplation in the starry eyes under the sword-shaped brows, which seemed to be I was thinking about something related to Lu Chen.

Every time he looked at Lu Chen, the anger and hostility he felt inexplicably dissipated, replaced by surprise and curiosity.

Just as they were looking at Lu Chen and thinking about something, the other Yuzhou Guard Qingqi moved quickly.

The Yuzhou Guards' actions were surprisingly efficient. All the light cavalry walked directly in front of the people. Regardless of their exclamations of "I can't do it, I can't do it." The horse bandits generally move smoothly, and their movements are so agile.

Taking the people with them, everyone quickly followed Lu Chen and left the dangerous area where the mudslide was raging.

Boom!

As soon as everyone left, there was a sudden loud noise behind them.

But when Fu Hua saw everyone leaving, he directly interrupted the transmission of spiritual power to maintain the spell.

The moment the technique stopped, the accumulated mud flow at the break of the hill fell directly with the already extremely unstable mountain, burying everything underneath in an instant.

"Thank you for your hard work, Commander Fu."

Lu Chen walked up to Fu Hua, cupped his hands and thanked her.

"Thanks to you this time, the people were saved. When I return to the court, I will definitely express my merits to you."

Fu Hua's face was full of malaise. It was obvious that the continuous consumption of a large amount of spiritual power had put a considerable burden on her. She could not hide the fatigue on her face when facing Lu Chen.

She raised her hand, cupped it towards Lu Chen, and said a few words of courtesy.

After everyone was completely reunited, Lu Chen did not immediately give the order to set off for the dam area. Instead, he walked slowly towards the flattered people who were eager to dismount as soon as they reached a safe place.

Finally, he walked up to a thin man, and with his eyes full of awe and gratitude, he slowly asked:

"This fellow villager, can you tell me why you all came here together? As far as I know, this place is adjacent to the dam area. The spiritual energy is too strong and the weather is unpredictable. It is definitely not a place for people to stay for a long time."

Hearing this, the man's face suddenly turned gloomy for some unknown reason, and he even clenched his teeth slightly, with a flash of hatred in his eyes.

Lu Chen noticed the strange look on his face and couldn't help but feel something in his heart. After a pause, he then asked, "Why are you here?"

Chapter 82 Me too

"To tell you this, sir, we are villagers from Gou'er Village and Qu'er Village. The reason why we came here is because the government recruited us for labor a few days ago and ordered us to serve at the Tianmen River Dam. We dare not not Following the official order, I packed my bags and set off. Unexpectedly, when I arrived here, the sky suddenly changed."

Li Wei answered truthfully, and when he said this, there was a sudden hatred in his eyes.

Then he first glanced around at the exhausted Yuzhou guards who had just rescued them, then gritted his teeth suddenly, as if he had made some determination, and continued:

"Originally, when the common people saw that the nearby mountains were unstable, there was a sudden heavy rain, and there were signs of flash floods, they made it clear to the yamen responsible for us and others, suggesting that we change the route. But the man not only refused to allow it, but also accused the common people of being sneaky and sneaky. They scolded the common people for delaying the trip, and then forced us to go through the dilapidated folk road first, while they hid behind and watched from a distance. As a result, when we walked in the middle, the mountains directly above suddenly collapsed. A flash flood formed, and if the military lords had not arrived in time, we might have been buried alive by the flash flood."

Having said this, he suddenly turned around and knelt down suddenly towards Zhang Shiping, who was looking complicated for some reason not far away.

"Li Wei, a humble citizen, would like to thank General General for his kindness in saving the people."

As he spoke, he ignored the mud on the ground and banged his head heavily on the ground.

"My great kindness and kindness will be remembered by the common people. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will do whatever it takes to repay the general."

It was Zhang Shiping who dug him out of the soil just now.

In order to complete the task as quickly as possible to avoid another flash flood, Zhang Shiping, the strongest member of the Yuzhou Guard, had no choice but to put down his body and do it himself, digging earth together with the soldiers to save people.

It was obviously to protect the soldiers of the Yuzhou Guard, and saving them was just a last resort, but seeing Li Wei kneel down to him so sincerely, Zhang Shiping couldn't help but feel a complicated and unspeakable feeling in his heart.

But after a moment, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Ok?"

In an instant, he realized the source of this something amiss.

"No, it's not that we won't be required to collect labor this time to control the flood, but we and other military personnel will be asked to assist Xiao Shangshu in quelling the flood? Why are they still..."

After thinking this, he subconsciously raised his head and looked at Lu Chen.

Then, he noticed that Lu Chen's eyes had turned cold.

There seemed to be an ice in his eyes that could not be melted away for thousands of years, making him feel an inexplicable chill all over his body.

That look in his eyes was actually colder than when he heard his contemptuous remarks about the people before.

"Where is Fang Yu!"

Fang Yu jumped up and landed in front of Lu Chen in an instant, bowed and said:

"This is my humble duty. Sir, please give me your instructions."

Lu Chen's left hand was clasped behind his back, and his right hand clenched the sword of the Supreme Dao. The hilt of this sword of the Human Emperor, which can "cut off the rebels at the top and punish the unconquered ministers at the top, kill first and then attack, authorized by the imperial power", quietly exuded from the blade. With supreme power, he said calmly and authentically: "The yamen officer that the fellow countryman just mentioned should not have gone far yet. Go and bring him here to see me."

"Impressive order!"

Swish!

The moment the words fell, Fang Yu suddenly disappeared from the place like a ghost. After only two breaths passed, his voice could no longer be heard around him.
