Jin'an Emperor

Chapter 228 Break

When people are thinking about something day and night, their mood will be as chaotic as the dense rain outside.

Sima Zun has become more and more unable to sit still these days, because according to the time, Jiangling should have replied, but Lu Qiang did not say at all, that is, he did not promise to return to the capital to participate in the clan meeting to sacrifice his ancestors, nor did he give a clear time to return.

Does Lu Qiang know anything? Thinking about this possibility, Sima Zun broke out in a cold sweat. For this reason, he was even ready to escape. He sent people to stare at Han Yanzhi and the army day and night. As long as Han Yanzhi made a little move, he would escape immediately.

He has been operating in Jiankang for many years, and he can still do it if he wants to escape.

However, Han Yanzhi never did anything unusual, and even rarely returned to the government office. The detective just reported that Han Yanzhi was back, but after a moment, he left again, as if there was a danger somewhere.

Local officials are so busy. Lu Qiang's hypocrite must be busier, right? Uh-huh! Maybe it's because I didn't have time to reply to myself.

Sima Zun can only comfort himself like this.

Among these emperors, the most treacherous one is him. In the name of sacrificing his ancestors, he recruits Lu Qiang back to Jiankang, and then waits for the opportunity to kill them, so that those arrogant soldiers under Lu Qiang can obey his orders.

This statement is just what he used to deceive Sima Gan's fool. If those people under Lu Qiang were so easy to settle down, Sima Xiuzhi may succeed.

Sima Zun had already figured out that after killing Lu Qiang, he blamed all the charges on Sima Gan and killed him on the spot. Then, as an imperial relative, he contacted Lu Qiang's important ministers to win their support.

The court is surnamed Sima. He is convinced that as long as Lu Qiang, the core figure, the important ministers under Lu Qiang, will support him.

"Your Majesty, you have been standing for a long time. Sit down and rest for a while! I will give you loose bones"

A charming voice sounded behind Sima Zun, and then a pair of white and tender hands wrapped around Sima Zun's arm.

The only one who can enter Sima Zun's secret room is the most favored concubine who has just been admitted for half a year.

Sima Zun really needs to rest, because his nerves are always in a high degree of tension.

turned around, gently pinched the concubine's face, and said, "You are the most lovely." After saying that, in the delicate voice of the concubine, he picked her up and walked in.

Without a few steps, the bodyguard outside the door suddenly asked, "Who is it?" Then the sound of a muffled hum and heavy objects falling to the ground came in one after another.

Sima Zun had already had a sperm on his brain. When he heard the abnormal noise, he suddenly woke up in horror, let go of his concubine, and rushed to the door. But before he reached the door, the door was pushed open from the outside, and then a smiling young man came in.

The rain kept dripping on the ground along the young man's clothes and hats, and the crisp "tick" sound was like a heavy hammer hitting Sima Zun's heart.

Through the youth, you can see that your bodyguard has fallen to the ground, and the blood mixed with rain is flowing to the low-lying areas in the courtyard.

"You.. Who are you? Don't you know that it's a capital crime to break into the palace without permission?

In such a weather, Liu Sinu appeared in Sima Zun's house dressed like this, no matter how she looked like a fierce ghost.

He bowed and saluted slightly and said, "Your Majesty Liu Si's daughter in front of the car has seen the loyal king's thousand years old"

"Ah! You... You are Liu's daughter"

Not many people have seen Liu's daughter, but many people have heard of this name, especially these royal families, who talk about Liu's daughter.

Liu Sinu smiled, raised her hand and made a gesture, and then saw a man in black come in. The man in black took out a white silk from his arms and put it on the table, and then turned around and walked out.

"Come by yourself, your family can be saved"

Liu's daughter's attitude is amiable. Every time she performs a mission, she almost always has this expression, deceiving the dying person. In his opinion, it's nothing at all.

Although I have been planning to kill others, how many people can be indifferent to life and death?

"No, I don't want to die. Please reply to Your Majesty. This is all the idea of Sima Lan and Sima Gan. I have always been loyal to Your Majesty."

Sima Zun said this and suddenly knelt down. In fear, he couldn't help bursting into tears. Now, if he doesn't understand the leak of the plan, there is something wrong with his head.

Liu Si's daughter looked at Sima Zun blankly, turned her head to look at the panicked concubine, but turned around.

At this time, a scene of a sudden change that Sima Zun never dreamed of appeared. The concubine who had curled up beside him suddenly jumped like a female beast of a child, took out something like an iron wire from her arms, and suddenly put it on Sima Zun's neck from behind, and then tightened it became tighter and tighter.

Sima Zun didn't realize that the charming little goblin in ** would attack him, and from her strength, she could feel what kind of weak woman she was, obviously a professional killer.

It was not until Sima Zun lost her breath that the concubine let go of her hand and then came over to bow to salute Liu Si's daughter.

When turning to this woman, Liu Sinu finally showed a trace of emotion in her eyes and said lightly, "I haven't seen you for a long time. You have done a good job. Let's go back to Jiangling with me!"

The woman obviously didn't expect that Liu Sinu would take her back to Jiangling. She looked at Liu Sinu and turned around for a moment, and her eyes were slightly blushing.

What Sima Zun did was very confidential. Even if outsiders could detect that he had abnormal movements, they could not have such accurate information. However, they did not know that Liu Sinu had already installed nails around Sima Zun when she was in office.

And this female assassin is the only woman who can make Liu Si's eye, but even if she can like it, she will be ranked behind Lu Qiang, otherwise she would not have been sent to carry out such an aggrieved task.

I'm afraid no one can really figure out Liu's thoughts.

At this time, another man in black came in and bowed to Liu Sinu: "Your Excellency, you are all ready"

Liu Sinu nodded and said, "Don't leave any traces, take all the bodies away"

"Yes"

The heavy rain is still pouring crazily. On such a night, there should have been no half a figure on the street, but at this time, a rapid sound of horseshoes spread to the city gate in the sound of raindrops falling to the ground.

Looking around, hundreds of black hut carriages gathered from all directions and did not stop at the gate. They kept running out of the city and disappeared in the vast rainy night in a blink of an eye.

Han Yanzhi stood quietly on the wall and watched the huge team disappear without a trace. He couldn't help sighing. I'm afraid only he understood his mood at this time.

A bodyguard beside him couldn't help saying, "Your Excellency, what on earth is this group..." Before he finished speaking, Han Yanzhi's stern eyes, which scared him to swallow the rest of the words.

Han Yanzhi glanced coldly at the guards around him and said, "Remember, you don't see anything and don't know anything, otherwise no one can protect you, including your family."

Han Yanzhi rarely spoke so harshly. After listening to his words, the guards were all in their hearts and quickly bowed down to say yes.

After turning the sky, the rain finally decreased, but it still did not stop. It was the Sima clan who were the first to find out that something was wrong.

Some Sima clan went to say peace to Sima Zun. Recently, this situation has become the norm, but they saw that the door of Zhongjing's palace was closed, and even the guards did not know where to go there.

So under full of doubts, someone went to the Hejian Palace and Huaiyang Palace again and found that the door was also closed and there was no half a human figure.

Finally, they realized that something was wrong, because they often gathered together to discuss the reward from the emperor, so their first thought was that they were ordered by the emperor.

It rained all night last night, but I didn't hear the sound of troop movement? Besides, if such a big thing has happened, there should be no movement!

Some people dared to jump into these royal palaces, but saw that these royal palaces were also empty. Each royal palace had no more than 100 people, but these people disappeared like evaporation from the world.

In panic, someone immediately found the government and reported to the government that several people of the palace had disappeared out of thin air. However, at this time, the chief officials of the government, under the leadership of Han Yanzhi, patrolled the river embankment, and no one paid attention to these petitioners at all.

Nearly a thousand people in the royal family disappeared out of thin air, and the government ignored it. Finally, a smart imperial relative felt that there was a serious problem. In fear, he immediately returned home and closed the door. From then on, he never saw anyone, especially the emperor's relatives.

Gradually, this unsolved case also spread among the people. Some said that some of them defected and some said that they were captured by ghosts and gods. Anyway, there was everything they said.

However, this small disturbance was soon diluted by the breach of the Jiangdi.

Days of torrential rains have made the river soar. It is not that people at this time do not pay attention to the prevention and control of floods, but that the court has been replaced like a horse lantern, and no one has taken care of this matter at all.

Lu Qiang has been busy fighting in the south and the north. When it rained heavily, it was too late for him to think about preventing and control water.

The river first broke from Hengjiang County in the upper reaches of Jiankang, and the big water leaked thousands of miles. Hengjiang, Chao County and Liyang, and several became Zeguo. Looking around, the water was boundless, and the bodies of humans and animals floated in the water from time to time.

Countless refugees fled to Jiankang and Xunyang, which were overcrowded in the shortest time.

After receiving the news, Lu Qiang made several orders, requiring local governments to make every effort to rescue the victims and mobilization of various living materials to the counties and counties seriously affected by the disaster as soon as possible.

Jiankang has Han Yanzhi in the town, and Yan Yanzhi asked for an order to go to Xunyang, where he used to be an official.

These two are very experienced. Instead of letting the victims enter the city, they set up tents for them outside the city. While the government opened a porridge field, they ordered the rich people in the city to open a porridge field if they had the conditions. If they had no conditions, they would donate various materials to the government.

The order sounds a little impathetic, but these two grassroots officials don't care about them at all. They strictly adhere to the emperor's principle of being as big as the sky, and everything is about disaster relief.

The seriously affected areas of the two places finally did not cause any trouble under the management of the two officials, but new problems still appeared at this time.

That is that there is not enough food.

Under normal circumstances, some grain harvest should be stored every year for emergencies. According to the current words, it can also be called war-prepared grain.

However, 200,000 yuan was lent to Murong Yun before, and then it was continuously allocated to various places. The current inventory is not without, but if it is tossed out again, it is likely that it will not survive the autumn harvest. In addition, this year's flood is bound to affect the harvest of the field, so if the grain reserves is exhausted, the court may run out of food.

Looking at the memorial, Lu Qiang couldn't help frowning deeply.
