Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 211 The Third Purple Card

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Guo Xie bowed his body and said in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty, my spies at Shangyu's spare office have now developed and penetrated into the counties in the southwestern part of the Xia Kingdom. It's just that the time is short, so I can't ignore the staff of the embroidered clothes envoy in the southwest. So now, I still have Yu Bei's office can only guarantee that any changes in the southwestern counties can be delivered to His Majesty as soon as possible..."

Having said that, Guo Xie paused, and continued:

"However, please rest assured, Your Majesty, after Yiwei envoy Zhong Zizhuo has been successfully transferred to the southwestern counties of Xia State after operating in the court of Xia State, from now on, the spies of my Shangyu Backup Office will be able to rely on the help of Xia State. The Southwest Transit Office has infiltrated Xia Guo's government!"

Zhong Zizhuo was the former governor of Fengzhou.It's just that at this time, he has already become the envoy of Yiwei, received the salary from the stick, and has become a nail for Xiao Cheng'an to insert in Xia Guochaotang.

And this so-called "Transportation Office of the Southwest Counties" is Xia Guochaotang, a yamen established in order to supply grain and grass materials for the army in the southwest of Xia Kingdom, and manage water, land and other transportation channels.Although the official position is not big, it is an extremely important and key position.

In order to help Zhong Zizhuo get this position, Sticking Stick took a lot of thought and cost to help him get it.

Xiao Cheng heard the words, but said in a deep voice:

"Where is the East Factory?"

Feng Bao on the side quickly bowed and said:

"Returning to Your Majesty, according to your instructions, Dongchang is already mobilizing manpower to prepare for the Li Dynasty. More than 80 capable fans have just been selected and are preparing to act."

Xiao Cheng nodded slightly, and said:

"The situation in the Li Dynasty is different from the situation in the southwestern counties of the Xia Kingdom. The domestic political situation in the Li Dynasty is still relatively stable, and the Shangyu backup department is not manned enough, and the methods are too rough, so you need to be more careful in Dongchang!"

Dongchang focuses on gathering intelligence, while Sticky is better at killing people.

It happened that in the southwestern counties of Xia Kingdom, Xiao Cheng wanted to stir up trouble, so the sticky pole was more suitable.On Li Chao's side, Xiao Cheng needs to provide intelligence support for future plans, so Dongchang is more suitable.

When Feng Bao heard this, he immediately bowed and said:

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this servant will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng nodded and didn't say much, but his face was still serious.

Now that the peace talks between the three countries have just been signed, the situation in the world appears to be extremely stable, but the struggle between them has all turned to the dark side.

In Zhongqing City, every day at the East Factory and the sticky poles, a few people with unknown origins and strange whereabouts can be found.And these people are either Xia Guo's direct envoy embroidered clothes, or the Li Dynasty's code signing school officials.

Zhishi Xiuyi said it before, so I won't say more here.

As for the Dianqi school official in the Li Dynasty, although his name sounds like a small official who handles official documents.

But in fact, this is the Li Dynasty who obeys the orders of the Li Dynasty king, and there is no organization responsible for monitoring the words and deeds of the civil and military officials of the Li Dynasty, clan princes, and the right to place spies in the clan and officials' homes.

The situation in the dark is turbulent, and Xiao Cheng has the two institutions of sticky pole and East Factory in his hands, and because of insufficient development time, it seems a bit stretched.

Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng suddenly thought.

In the line of sight that no one could see, a huge golden turntable suddenly appeared.

Maybe, what useful cards can be drawn in this February lottery?

The next moment, the roulette began to rotate slowly.

Gold, purple, blue, and white four kinds of brilliance, with the shaking of the turntable, continuously emit different colors of brilliance.

Suddenly one of the training cards flashing with blue light caught Xiao Cheng's gaze, and the three words [Jin Yiwei] appeared on it, which made Xiao Cheng's eyes brighten up.

But unfortunately, as the turntable continued to rotate, the blue light gradually dimmed.

The turntable did not stop, but continued to rotate.

Seeing this, Xiao Cheng couldn't help shaking his head regretfully.

[Jin Yiwei] Although this training card is only blue, it will definitely help Xiao Cheng even more at this time!
It's a pity that I didn't get it.

And in the sight that no one can see, the huge turntable continued to rotate, and finally stopped slowly.

The next moment, a vast and dazzling purple radiance suddenly filled Xiao Cheng's entire line of sight, making Xiao Cheng suddenly excited.

This seems to have not reached the guaranteed number of times...

At this moment, Xiao Cheng subconsciously looked at the skill "Heavenly Blessing" on the golden finger panel.

The last time it was because of this skill given by this world that Xiao Cheng successfully got his first gold card.

But since that time, the colorful brilliance that originally circulated on this skill suddenly became gray and dull, as if all the energy had been exhausted in one go.

Although after a period of time, Xiao Cheng can feel that this skill is not a one-time thing, the energy is gradually recovering, and the skill has gradually recovered some brilliance.

But just looking at the miraculousness on it now, it seems that it has not recovered enough to affect Goldfinger.

Could it be that my luck has changed recently?

Xiao Cheng's eyes lit up, he couldn't wait to look at his third purple card.

In the purple radiance, the card's effect suddenly emerged.

[Purple Training Card, Master of the Great Ming Emperor.

Card Effect: After using it, you will have Liu Bowen, Zhu Sheng, Yao Guangxiao. (Special effect, the prince is taught by three people, and his ability value immediately +5)

Card description: Loyalty and precious blood, laying a foundation for the future!

Liu Bowen, the sincerity uncle of the Ming Dynasty, learned from heaven and man, capitalized and civil and military, and planned and planned to pacify the universe.

Strength 23, Literature 88, Wisdom 96, Morality 90, Age 36, Domination 59, Politics 92, Charisma 80, Loyalty 100, Ambition 7
Zhu Sheng, the founding minister of the Ming Dynasty, formulated the system of rites and music, and put forward the nine-character policy of "building walls high, accumulating grain widely, and becoming king slowly".

Strength 7, Literature 92, Wisdom 75, Morality 90, Age 51, Domination 21, Politics 68, Charisma 68, Loyalty 100, Ambition 1
Yao Guangxiao, Duke Rong of the Ming Dynasty, was proficient in the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and had a magnificent instrument.During the battle of Jingnan, he guarded Beiping and planned strategies. He was known as the prime minister in black.

Force 77, Literature 89, Wisdom 90, Morality 55, Age 44, Domination 80, Politics 91, Charm 70, Loyalty 100, Ambition 72]

After Xiao Cheng saw the special effect of this card clearly, he raised his eyebrows.

Er, there is no prince...

But it doesn't matter!

Liu Bowen, the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty, was able to preserve himself and his family under the hands of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang.Among the ten folk anecdotes, at least four can be related to him.

In the mouths of the common people, it belongs to the kind of existence that knows astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom, strategizes, and is like a fairy.

There is also Yao Guangxiao, although he is a monk, his eyes are triangular, his shape is like a sick tiger, and his nature is bloodthirsty.

Under his instigation, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di set off the battle of Jingnan.When Zhu Di was in desperation, he used various methods to boost morale, and was known as the number one hero of Jingnan.

It can be said that it is not against harmony to put these two in the golden training card!
Jinyiwei, Xiao Cheng can form it himself.Without suitable spy talents, Xiao Cheng can also recruit and train them by himself, but the manpower, material resources, and cost will be a little higher.

Compared with these two, those costs are obviously not that important.

but……

Xiao Cheng frowned when he saw the special effect of this card.

Isn't this special effect a bit wasteful?
Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng looked at the few official documents left at hand with the help of the cabinet walkers, suddenly raised his eyebrows, stood up with a slap on his thigh, and said to the two:
"I'm a little tired, and that's it for today!"

Feng Bao and Guo Xie looked at each other immediately after hearing the words.
-
At this time, in the southwest of Xia Kingdom, in the city of Fengzhou.

Xia Guo's elite frontier soldiers, wearing strong and sharp clothes, covered their mouths and noses with masks, and slowly withdrew from Fengzhou City.

Under the cold reprimand of the general in the army, the soldiers immediately stepped forward and sealed the four gates of Fengzhou City tightly.

In Fengzhou City, Xia Guochaotang's reputation was already bankrupt.

Seeing this abnormal situation at this time, the people in the city did not know what to do, they only knew that these soldiers of the Xia army wanted to seal themselves, the people in the city, into the city, and they panicked.

A group of people, screaming, crying, and making noise, kept crowding towards the city gate.

But those who greeted them were straight spears shining coldly, and the indifferent eyes of Xia Jun soldiers.Whenever someone dares to move forward boldly, there will be soldiers of the Xia army stabbing with spears.

There was only the sound of flesh and blood being pierced by a spear piercing their chests, and the civilians who dared to attack the army formation immediately left corpses and wounded, and retreated in panic.

All of a sudden, the shrill screams sounded again in Fengzhou City.

The screams brought back the memories of the people in the city about the military chaos at that time.Immediately, the sound of mournful crying, cursing and screaming resounded through the city.

On the river in the distance, several large ships flying the banner of "Great Xia Southwest Transit Si Yamen" slowly stopped.

Zhong Zizhuo walked out of the cabin, looked at the Fengzhou City, which was resounding in the distance, frowned, and said sharply:
"What happened to Fengzhou City? Send people to investigate quickly!"

Not long ago, Zhong Zizhuo was still the prefect of Fengzhou, so it was impossible that he had no affection for Fengzhou.Before that, Fengzhou was the place where the military disaster was the worst, and now it is so strange, Zhong Zizhuo is naturally a little worried.

Hearing the words, a transfer officer immediately stepped forward, bowed to Zhong Zizhuo, and said:
"Deputy Envoy Zhong, the frontier army has blocked water transportation and forbids everyone from approaching Fengzhou City!"

Zhong Zizhuo frowned and said angrily:
"What do you mean? What happened in Fengzhou City?"

"The news from the frontier army said that there was a plague in Fengzhou City."

The official's words immediately made Zhong Zizhuo froze.

"What? Plague! Good Fengzhou City, why is there a plague? When the frontier army entered the city before, didn't they clean up the city? What are they doing for food!" Zhong Zizhuo grabbed the officer and said angrily.

The subordinate officials were a little helpless, but they also knew that the new Shangguan had served as the prefect of Fengzhou, so they could understand, and quickly said:
"The people in the city, because they had nothing to eat after the war, they ate carrion, which caused the plague to grow. The plague is rampant in the city and cannot be controlled. In desperation, the frontier army had no choice but to blockade the entire Fengzhou city..."

Zhong Zizhuo's face turned red, and he looked extremely angry. He gritted his teeth and asked:

"How long has it been since the plague happened?"

Hearing the words, the subordinate officer was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said:
"The border army didn't say anything, but it seems that it has been a while."

Zhong Zizhuo's face suddenly became extremely pale, and he said powerlessly:
"Fengzhou, Fengzhou city! The Yangtze River water transportation hub, the place where the southwest water vein must pass. In a place with such a well-developed water transportation, the plague may have spread before it was discovered by the frontier troops stationed..."

As soon as these words came out, all the transshipment officials on the ship also immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, and their faces became extremely pale.

And at this moment, several civil servants following Zhong Zizhuo quietly looked at each other, and they all saw the seriousness in their eyes.

One of them suddenly coughed lightly, as if reminding Zhong Zizhuo.

At this time, Zhong Zizhuo suddenly regained his senses, and immediately said to the officials:
"Find a place to dock first, and send someone to send a message to the imperial court and the government of each state and county!"

"Yes!" All the subordinate officials immediately responded.

The boat approached the shore and stopped by the river.

Several officers of the operation department carried the official documents on their backs, led the horses, returned to the shore by boat, and immediately scattered away, each speeding up their horses to pass on the news.

But among this group of servants, one of them waited until the group of servants disappeared from sight, but suddenly turned his horse's head and galloped towards Yunguo.
-
The capital of the Le Dynasty, in the Thang Long Mansion, the place of the royal family's ancestral temple of the Le Dynasty.

Aohou Lihu, who just returned to the capital, didn't even go to Li Weining's side, so he rushed to the ancestral temple and asked to see him.

One of the Nine Ministers of the Li Dynasty, Feng Chang Ruan Ti, after seeing Li Hu coming to ask for an audience, immediately shouted back the crowd and personally led Li Hu to the main hall of the ancestral temple.

In the main hall of the ancestral temple dedicated to the successive kings of the Li Dynasty, Li Xing, the patriarch of the Li Dynasty, stands in the center of the hall with a statue of a god sitting on a throne with a wide robe and a high crown.The gods of the kings of the Li Dynasty were arranged in batches beside him.

Li Hu immediately knelt down on the ground and said loudly:

"Clan Li Hu, please see the ancestor!"

The sound reverberated in the hall, and with the inexplicable god statue overlooking the hall, it gave people a strange feeling.

In the next moment, behind the statue, a light shone inexplicably.It was as if a ray of divine light shrouded the statue, and the whiteness gave it a sense of wonder.

Li Hu pressed his forehead firmly to the ground, his voice trembling slightly, and confessed:

"Li Hu is not good at handling affairs, resulting in heavy loss of manpower, please punish the ancestor!"

After a moment of silence, an ethereal, unrecognizable voice suddenly resounded in the hall.

"You do have disadvantages when you go to Yunguo this time. But if you successfully controlled Taiwei Chen Feng this time and controlled the army, I will not hold you accountable!"

In Li Hu's downcast eyes, he closed them slightly, continued to show a look of sincerity and fear, and said loudly:

"Thank you, Ancestor!"

The illusory voice paused for a moment, then suddenly said in a deep voice:

"Before, the mission did not even meet the little Emperor Yun. This time, have you ever met the little Emperor Yun in person?"

When Li Hu heard this, he immediately said:

"Back to the ancestor, I saw it this time!"

"Draw a portrait, I want to know..."

What does he want to know?Why do you suddenly want to know the appearance of Emperor Yun, and even draw a portrait yourself?
Li Hu's eyes flickered, his heart murmured, but the voice in his mouth was still so panic-stricken, he said:
"Follow the decree of the ancestors!"
