Xun Yufei's face turned strange: "I personally led people to catch him, but I didn't expect that he had disappeared..."

The people he sent to investigate saw Bai Xiang hiding in a private house on the outskirts of the city.

And the spies had been monitoring there and had never left.

But the fact is that when Xun Yufei arrived, Bai Xiang did disappear inexplicably!

In desperation, Xun Yufei had to send people to continue investigating and report back.

Tang Yun was very disappointed. After repeatedly asking for details, he frowned and said, "It's impossible for a person to disappear out of thin air. Where did he go?"

But judging from this, Bai Xiang must have noticed that someone was chasing him, and it would be even more difficult to catch him in the future.

This matter had to be put aside for the time being and come back to talk about it later.

Thinking of this, Tang Yun suddenly had an idea.

If she asked Chen Yan for help, this guy was a local snake in Qingshan County, and maybe he could find a way.

But she quickly rejected this idea.

In terms of ability, Chen Yan had no problem.

But that guy was too greedy! Just now, she was extorted 100,000 taels of silver. If she asks him for help again, he might ask for a sky-high price again!

"Boss! Something terrible is happening!"

He Jinyao suddenly rushed in from outside, looking panicked.

"What are you panicking about?"

Tang Yun asked in surprise. He Jinyao was a steady person, and there were not many things that could make him panic.

He Jinyao said in a panic: "There is another civil uprising in Jizhou!"

Tang Yun was shocked and said: "What!"

Jizhou in the north is the largest prefecture in the Great Zhou.

The north has little rain and drought, and people's livelihood has always been in decline.

At the beginning of Tang Yun's reign, he wanted to start to vigorously improve the water conservancy in the north, but later the rebellion of the rebel king made this plan abandoned halfway.

In the past three years, the drought in Jizhou has worsened, and countless victims have been affected.

Every year, the court has to allocate a large amount of money and food to provide relief to the victims.

But this year, the treasury is empty, and it is difficult for Tang Yun to allocate disaster funds.

This is why she is so anxious about the sugar and salt, and even does it herself.

The country is short of money!

The people of Jizhou are tough, and there have been sporadic civil uprisings in the past few years, but they were not large in scale and were quickly suppressed.

But this time is different.

Jizhou Prefecture has dozens of counties under its jurisdiction, and there is a full-scale civil uprising!

The scale is so large that it is beyond the scope of the Jizhou government troops to suppress, and the Jizhou prefect can only ask for help from the capital!

After the urgent report was sent to the capital, it was immediately forwarded to Qing through the secret envoy arranged by Tang Yun.

The matter was of great importance, so Tang Yun had to temporarily put aside the matter of arresting the rebel king, quickly packed up her luggage, and took the injured Qing Yuan with her, preparing to return to Beijing after dawn.

The convoy left the county government compound, and just as it arrived outside, it met Chen Yan who had just returned.

"Huh? Miss Zhou, you are in such a hurry..." Chen Yan was a little surprised.

"Sorry, there's something urgent going on in my clan, I have to rush back immediately." Tang Yun lifted the curtain from the car and reluctantly responded.

"What could be more important than making money?" Chen Yan curled his lips.

"No..." Tang Yun was about to perfunctorily pass it over, but suddenly something happened in her mind, and she changed her words, "It's like this, my chamber of commerce has some business in Jizhou, and something happened."

The civil uprising in Jizhou originated from the disaster.

This is a big problem for the Great Zhou. Those old ministers in the court are only anxious but not practical, and they always allocate funds for disaster relief!

But Chen Yan is a guy with many tricks, maybe we can get some ideas from him!

When Chen Yan heard what she said, he immediately reacted: "Are you talking about the civil uprising in Jizhou? Indeed, if there is a civil uprising, this business will not be easy to do!"

He made a lot of money last night, and he was also happy. He played with Lu Qing'er for half the night and was very tired.

I was going to sleep a little longer today, but I didn't expect that before dawn, I suddenly received news that there was a civil uprising in Jizhou.

This incident cheered up Chen Yan, and he immediately took Lu Qing'er back to the county government from the Nafu Camp.

What a great opportunity!

Civil rebellion means an increase in refugees.

Although Longzhou and Jizhou are not close to each other, the prefectures between the two have always hated refugees and used the strategy of driving them away.

Refugees from Jizhou will eventually flow to Longzhou.

In the whole Longzhou, no, in the whole Great Zhou, there is no one like Chen Yan who wants as many refugees as possible!

Labor force, this is a precious resource!

Therefore, Chen Yan is ready to start as soon as possible, do all the work, and receive those refugees who may arrive in Longzhou soon.

Tang Yun in the carriage was stunned when she heard his words: "County Magistrate Chen has never left the mountains, and he also knows about the civil rebellion in Jizhou?"

The prefect of Jizhou just reported this matter back to Beijing. It is said that she is the source of the news, and no one should know it earlier than her.

Ministers in the court may not know about this matter.

How come Chen Yan already knew about this?

Chen Yan smiled mysteriously: "I care about the world and worry about the country and the people. That's me! Since Miss Zhou has something urgent, I won't delay you. I'll wait until you finish dealing with the clan affairs.We can talk later."

He bowed and was about to take Lu Qing'er to the county government office.

"Wait a minute!" Tang Yun's heart moved, and she hurriedly stopped him, "Since Lord Chen is concerned about the country and the people, what do you think about the civil uprising in Jizhou?"

"Miss Zhou, when will the people of Qingshan County in my opinion revolt?" Chen Yan suddenly changed the subject.

"Ah? Lord Chen is joking. The people of Qingshan County are rich and their lives are stable. How can there be a civil uprising?" Tang Yun was confused.

"That's it. Although Qingshan County is not a rich place, it has beautiful scenery, complete infrastructure and good welfare. It is really hard to find a reason for a civil uprising. "Chen Yan didn't blush, and even straightened his chest while talking.

Xun Yufei, He Jinyao and others, and even the Fengling Guards around them, all frowned when they heard it.

Your Majesty asked him for advice, why was he talking about this and that?

He was asking about the civil uprising in Jizhou, what's the point of talking about Qingshan County for no reason?

Only Tang Yun seemed to be thinking about something.

"Lord Chen is indeed an extraordinary person, every word is a pearl!"

"You mean, as long as the people are healthy, there will naturally be no civil uprising, right?"

"If we can find a way to make the people of Jizhou live a stable life, the danger of civil uprising will be eliminated!"

"But the problem is, how can we make the people of Jizhou live a healthy life? "

After she pointed it out in a few words, Xun Yufei and the others suddenly realized it and blushed secretly.

Fortunately, I didn't say anything just now, otherwise I would have lost face. I didn't expect that Chen Yan meant this!

However, Chen Yan looked at Tang Yun in confusion and said, "Miss Zhou, what are you talking about? I mean, there will never be a civil uprising in Qingshan County. If you want to do business, you should come to Qingshan County. We will never be affected by the so-called civil uprising to make money!"

Tang Yun: "..."

Everyone: "..."
