I am the Empress Dowager!

Chapter 145 Too insidious!

Jiao Ye looked at Chao Ge Ling Yu Xu in front of him, and the frown between his eyes really became tighter and tighter.

Sometimes he really couldn't understand who the chaogeling in front of him was.

Although he is one of the few elders with some status in Chaoge City, he also feels that the current Chaoge cannot fight against those thieves.

For the sake of Chaoge and the common people, it is the kingly way to bear the burden of humiliation.

but
"County Monarch."

"Old Jiao has something to say, you can just say it!" Naturally, Yu Xu could see the embarrassment on Jiao Ye's face, and immediately asked him to continue with a smile on his face, "Although this county is nothing Famous ministers and good generals, but he is not a common man who can't tolerate others talking.

Jiao Lao was able to guarantee Chaoge's safety in the chaos, and tried his best to save some of Chaoge's people. This kind of heart is always in the county's heart.

If there is anything you can teach the kid, Boss Jiao can just say it! "

Looking at Yu Xu who is so humble, who doesn't have any arrogance as a county magistrate, Jiao Ye didn't know what to say for a while.

In the end, he sighed helplessly and swallowed back what he originally wanted to say.

"Hey, since the county lord has an order, then this old man can't refuse, so I'm ready to set off immediately!"

Maybe there was something really on his mind, Jiao Ye didn't say much at this time, he didn't ask any more questions, and he didn't even want to know what Yu Xu was thinking.

He directly bowed to Na Yu Xu and then turned and left.

When Xiang Chong watched this scene, a slight surprise flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, and he saluted Yu Xu before turning and leaving.

Of course, before leaving, he also assured Yu Xu that he would satisfy Yu Xu's request.

This matter is not difficult for the Xiang family.

After everyone left, Yu Xu also brought Liu Long and others who had not fully recovered from their senses back to his residence, and came to the back hall of the county government.

As the head of a county, Yu Xu certainly shouldn't be so leisurely, but the current Chaoge is not just a waste of time, all the people have not recovered from the killing not long ago.

Even the white sails of many people have not been taken down.

It can be said that although Chaoge still has thousands or even nearly ten thousand people, it is completely dead and silent, and everyone has no motivation to do anything.

And because of the thieves who may appear here at any time, they don't even want to do farming.

It's not that they don't know the simple truth that "the dead cannot be brought back to life, but the living must continue to live", and it's not that they don't know that the dead are just the simplest things in today's troubled times.

It is precisely because they know it all that they do nothing.

because they see no hope
There is no large number of soldiers and horses stationed in Chaoge, no one to help them wipe out the bandits, they will face the bandits coming here at any time.

Even now, those thieves would come to Chaoge from time to time.

One is to come here to find out what's going on in Chaoge County and see what's going on with Yu Xu, and the other is to snatch something from them from time to time.

If he sees some young and beautiful women, he will not be stingy with his "love" and will directly attack them.

In this case, what can the people of Chaoge County do?
Do they still have to work hard every day, and then grow the food without waiting for themselves to eat, without waiting for the court to confiscate, and then directly robbed by those thieves?
If something goes wrong, you even risk the lives of your own family?

This will not work!
Even though these people do not have the courage and strength to resist, they are not fools, they cannot do such things.

And capable people are either able to protect themselves like Xiang Jia, or they have already fled here, but most of them can't even escape.

The money, silk and food in their hands have been taken away.

Even if he escaped, he might not be able to get out of Hanoi County, and he would have starved himself to death.

How can you bear this?

Therefore, the people of Chaoge would either sit lifelessly waiting to die, dig wild vegetables every day, eat some grass roots and bark, and drink some wild grass soup.

Or simply marry looking for a wealthy family like the Xiang family who they think can protect them, crying and begging them to accept themselves as slaves and give themselves a bite to eat.

The worst thing is to buy your own children and give them a bite to eat.
On both sides of the street, there are children sitting on the ground everywhere, and there are even a few dried straws on their heads.

That's a child that even the Xiang family doesn't like, so I can only hope for a miracle
Along the way, Liu Long also saw these scenes in his own eyes. On the way to Chaoge, during the past few days in Chaoge, he had seen such scenes many times.

But today he has a completely different feeling, even if this feeling, he himself can't explain clearly.

"Yu Chaoge!"

The moment Liu Long and others returned to the back house of the county government office, Liu Long came directly in front of Yu Xu with the strength he didn't know where he came from, and stopped him directly.

Looking at Liu Long whose eyes gradually became firmer, Yu Xu just moved his eyelids slightly, and then nodded towards him.

"Does Your Majesty have anything to say? I'm here to listen!"

"I want to know. When is Yu Chaoge planning to change the people of Chaoge?
If this continues, Chaoge may soon become a dead city."

Although Liu Long is young, he is definitely not a fool. He is very clear about the current situation of Chaoge, and the numbers outside the city are almost exhausted.

After the wild vegetables and grass roots and bark are all gone, the Chaoge is really messed up!
What they want to eat next. Liu Long can also guess.

He didn't want to find this kind of scene here before his eyes.

So, for the first time, he feels his identity is time to emerge.

"I can give an order right now to let Ma Leng of Huai County immediately mobilize food and grass to help the people!
Of course I can also order Ao Cang"

"Your Majesty's intentions are good, but please don't disturb Chaoge!" Yu Xu interrupted Liu Long again before Liu Long could finish speaking.

Seeing Liu Long's shocked expression, Yu Xu finally sighed helplessly.

"Your Majesty, do you think that those thieves are not living well enough, so you plan to remind them that not far from Chaoge is my big man's Ao Cang?
Or maybe he felt that Chao Ge had run out of money, and asked the Hanoi County Sheriff's Office in Huai County to take the initiative to give them some? "
