Chapter 694

Yan Liqiang read about the snake, so what did the officers sitting at the dinner table think and whether they really complained about it? He was very clear in his heart. That's why he answered directly when Liu Xiaowei asked.

Although several officers in Luyuan had some psychological preparations before, they still had some luck. They expected to hear some different answers from Yan Liqiang. However, when Yan Liqiang said so bluntly that the people left were going to die, several officers all turned pale. After looking at each other, they were speechless for a while.

For those who are destined to stay, when they know that the result of staying is death, the mood of several people is extremely complex at this moment. They feel that something has collapsed. If several people were not still sitting, I'm afraid their feet would be soft at this moment.

Liu Xiaowei wanted to drink, but his hand picked up the glass, which was shaking and spilled all the wine in it.

"The imperial court also knows that staying is a dead end, so your majesty and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are going to leave the imperial capital and go out of hunting to the south to avoid the disaster. Before that, the imperial court is actually considering moving the capital..." Yan Liqiang said calmly.

"I also heard last year that the imperial court was considering moving the capital... But... But then somehow there was no sound..." Liu Xiaowei said. He put the glass sprinkled with half a glass of wine on the table again. He withdrew his hand and squeezed it into a fist under the table, which calmed his mood and thoughts a little.

"At that time, the imperial court said to move the capital because it thought it could let the people in Gyeonggi move out before the disaster, so the imperial court was not afraid to say so. Later, the imperial court found that the people in Gyeonggi could not leave before the disaster, but wanted to stay where they were, so it didn't talk about moving the capital. Moving the capital became his Majesty's southern tour, People in Gyeonggi want to go, and it becomes difficult. They need a guide issued by the government... "Yan Liqiang explained.

"Why?"

Yan Liqiang smiled bitterly, "I didn't understand at first, but later I came to the imperial capital. The reason why the imperial court didn't let the people in the capital move away was that there were too many people in the capital. The imperial court thought it could let the hundred surnames in the capital leave. It thought that the granaries and official warehouses of the States adjacent to the capital were full, As reported by the local authorities, the grain relief in the official granaries can be abandoned, so that the people in Gyeonggi can migrate to various states and counties for separate resettlement, survive the disaster, and then slowly make plans. However, the actual situation is that the official granaries in the States and counties around Gyeonggi are seriously eroded and empty, and they are simply unable to meet the needs of the transfer of the people in Gyeonggi. In this case, If the imperial court allows the people in the capital to flee and migrate freely, the people in the whole capital will become tens of millions of refugees and rioters. The local government can't restrain them at all. You are all people who eat the bowl of rice as soldiers. Naturally, you can think of what that means to the imperial court. If there are tens of millions of refugees and rioters in the capital of the Han Empire, This is the country of the Han Empire. Do you want it... "

Although Liu Xiaowei was an officer in Luyuan, he didn't know the secret behind the great policy of the imperial court because of his low level. At the moment, hearing Yan Liqiang's words, several talents woke up like a dream. They understood it all at once. They were all in a cold sweat. None of them were stupid. When they heard Yan Liqiang's words, If you think about what happened in the imperial capital these days, you will understand it all at once.

"This... This is... That is to say, the imperial court clearly knows that we are waiting to die... But... But it deceives us and lets us stay..." Qu Chang, who is called Guo Sida, muttered to himself with a lost face. The faces of the other officers also changed and changed, making him ugly.

"Those people who were previously detained under house arrest in Luyuan were my old friends and friends in the Han empire times. Because they didn't want to tell lies in the newspaper to deceive the people in Gyeonggi and let them stay and wait for death, they were arrested and detained in Luyuan. If I hadn't created the Han empire times, I would be familiar with sun and Duke Liu, I've done something for the imperial court before. I've fought for your majesty. I'm afraid they'll die long ago! "

"Please save my family's life. I'm very grateful. I was led by my Lord!" Liu Xiaowei was the first to react. He stood up directly, pushed away his chair, knelt down to Yan Liqiang and saluted.

Several other officers also reacted at once. They pushed away their chairs and knelt in front of Yan Liqiang. "Please save my family's life. I'm very grateful. I was led by adults!"

"Get up, get up, let's sit and talk!" Yan Liqiang helped the officers of Luyuan up one by one, "today we all talked about here. How can I wait until death and watch your family suffer from natural disaster in the emperor's capital city? I've already brought the road guide. Please sit down..."

After several officers sat down, Yan Liqiang got up directly, came to the next room, came in with a box, put the box on the table, opened the box, and slowly there were box guides in the box.

Seeing those new road guides, several officers were excited, just like seeing life-saving straw.

"Meng Hui said before that you need about hundreds of road guides. I brought 300 road guides this time. You can divide them. It's just 50 for one person. In addition to your immediate relatives and other relatives and friends, you can also give them if you need them. It's a life-saving!"“ Thank you for your kindness... "Several officers in Luyuan shed tears of gratitude and didn't know what to say. This life-saving grace is more important than Mount Tai, not to mention saving the lives of a family“ I still have directions here, but you know, it's not appropriate to make a public about it now. It's best to come quietly. Now your Majesty's southern tour is imminent, and the imperial court is afraid of trouble! "“ Don't worry, my Lord. Most of our relatives and friends are old in the army, and many are on duty in the Yamen. They know how to be measured! "“ That's good! " Yan Li nodded and then asked, "there will be a natural disaster in half a year. After the natural disaster, I'm afraid the situation of the Han Empire is not optimistic. There is a sign of chaos. After your family leaves the capital city, I don't know what plans they have and where they are going to settle down?" Several officers looked at each other, and there was a trace of melancholy on their faces. They were all seven foot men. It was no problem for them to travel all over the country, eat and sleep. But it was not easy for the family to find a strange place to settle down outside after leaving the capital. Especially now they have to work in Luyuan, and the family had better leave as soon as possible, A family, old and young, left their care and wanted to travel outside. The of old father and child is really worrying“ It's a great luck that we can get a guide from adults to give our family a chance of life. We don't dare to think too much. As long as our family leave Gyeonggi first and live a life, we'll find a way later! " Liu Xiaowei frowned and thought for a moment, then said“ If your family is willing to settle down in the northwest, I can arrange someone to take care of them along the way. The family members of my friends in the newspaper office are almost in the northwest now! " When Yan Liqiang said this, several officers were shocked and looked at each other. They were greatly moved. They all knew that Yan Liqiang had great influence in the northwest. Yan Liqiang was the supervisor of Qi Yun and had the first factory and manufacturing Bureau in the world. Even the seven departments of Shatu should be old and solid in front of him. If the Great Han Empire really became chaotic, their family would be as small as the northwest, It's a hundred times better to take care of a place like Yan Liqiang than to go to a place unfamiliar with others. At least life will not be a problem and will not be bullied“ You don't have to answer me in a hurry. You can discuss it with your family first and see what they mean. If your family agrees, you can tell me again and I'll ask someone to arrange it for you! "“ Thank you, my Lord! " Several officers were grateful and thanked Yan Liqiang again Half an hour later, Yan Liqiang personally sent several officers to the gate of the yard and watched them leave. When they left, each of these officers carried 50 road guides. Seeing that these officers left carefully in the dark, Yan Liqiang really felt like pulling people into a pyramid scheme... The first batch of road guides were scattered. Yan Liqiang believed that in a few days, these people would come back to him. This human relationship is a big net, As long as you touch any end of the net, slowly, the whole net can move... The next day, Liu Xi and several other officers who were not on duty changed their civilian clothes and left Luyuan with the guide given by Yan Liqiang. On this day, more than a month later, Yan Liqiang saw a father-in-law from the imperial palace again... February 15, the day after tomorrow, His majesty invited Yan Liqiang into the palace to explain and practice archery for his Highness the prince!
