Agent Abandoned Concubine: Tyrant, beg for favor

Chapter 236 Firm Confidence
Sitting alone on the throne, the queen thought to herself, no, I have to act now.I can't ask Su Ruoqi to spoil my big business at that time. Now I only have Xu Wei's army out of my control. I think Su Ruoqi must go to find Xu Wei. Now only by controlling this army can I have the ability to compete with myself. capital.

Fortunately, I have sent someone to inform Xu Wei that the prince is dead, and told him to return to Beijing.Unexpectedly, the first emperor actually left a hand, leaving behind an army that could be controlled outside the imperial power.It's just that until now, why hasn't there been any news about Su Ruoqi?Could it be that he gave up by himself?Otherwise, as long as he goes to the border, the people he arranges along the way will definitely be able to find him.

Forget it, as long as Xu Wei is recruited first, even if he reaches the frontier, he may not be able to cause any big waves. "Come here, give another edict to General Xu Wei in the frontier, telling him to return to Beijing immediately."

Officials across the country have basically been replaced by the Queen's people.But this is a pain for the local people. The new officials are not familiar with the local affairs at all, and they are extremely greedy, always thinking of depriving the interests of the people.The tax was high as soon as it came, and I don’t know how many people have handed in all the grain grown for several years, and even more unlucky ones didn’t have enough food at all, and had to borrow grain to hand in.

But there is no way to do this. If you fail to pay taxes, you will be arrested and jailed.Many people will ask the officials to forcibly pay a low price for their own pockets if they can't pay their taxes and houses. The beauty is helping them.

However, most of the local clean and honest officials were dismissed. Looking at the suffering of the people now, and seeing the hardships of the city I have worked so hard to be ruined by a bunch of villains, I feel very unwilling.But they dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, did not dare to go to them, and they also heard about the Queen's cruelty, so they did not dare to resist at all.

After the empress takes charge of the country, she will build a palace that is bigger than the previous emperor. The only way to increase the country's tax revenue is to suffer for the common people. The common people are suffering unspeakably.I don't know how many people were displaced and went everywhere to beg for food.

Su Ruoqi cried when he saw the people displaced along the way, but now I have nothing to do. Without military power, I can't bring down the Queen at all.Now I can only find General Xu Wei as soon as possible, and use his military power to regain my throne.

I think the people must be miserable now. I think that as long as I can disintegrate the power of the queen and other powers, and then get the support of the people, success should not be far away.

"It should be Yunhai City ahead." Yun Xi said from the side.Yun Xi remembered that there seemed to be an official here who was a clean and honest official and managed Yunhai City very well.

"Yeah, I think Uncle Li is still inside, we can take a sneak peek at him later." Su Ruoqi also said from the side.Uncle Li was his father's confidant back then, and he would never betray himself.Uncle Li is an upright person, so it's not uncommon for him to pay him a visit. Now that he's in the city, he should be managed pretty well.

After the group entered the city, Su Ruoqi looked at the scene around him, and couldn't help but wonder: "How could this be?" The city did not appear as Su Ruoqi thought, and there were still refugees everywhere.Painful expressions appeared on the faces of the people.

How could this be so, it is impossible for Uncle Li to just watch the people in the city suffer like this.Knowing this Li Jing's character, Su Ruoqi would never watch the people suffer. In his opinion, the lives of the people are more important than his life.

"Yunxi, go and see what happened with me." Su Ruoqi and Yunxi put on their makeup in the carriage, and immediately got out of the carriage to check.

Before the two of them had walked far, Yunxi was grabbed by the sleeve of a little boy. "Sister, give me something to eat. My mother is starving to death. He hasn't eaten for three days. Help her." The little boy was throwing a ball beside him.

Seeing the little boy like this, Yunxi couldn't bear it, so she picked up the little boy and said, "Okay, take me to your mother."

Su Ruoqi and Yunxi followed the little boy to a dilapidated hut, and indeed there was a thin lady lying on the bed. "Mom, I found someone to save you." The little boy cried when he saw his mother on the bed.

After Yunxi saw the woman, she immediately gave the woman some food, and gave some to the child.The two looked at Yunxi and Su Ruoqi gratefully, and devoured the food.They were so hungry that they hadn't eaten for days.

After eating, Su Ruoqi hurriedly asked from the side: "How did the city become what it is now? As far as I know, Master Li Jing will never watch you become like this." I believe that the people are already like this, and with Li Jing's character, they will be indifferent.

The woman cried and said: "Master Li Jing, Mr. Li Jing has been dropped to a remote place." Then the woman told Su Ruoqi everything the new official did after Li Jing was replaced.

It turned out that after Li Jing was replaced, a new official came immediately.This official is not as considerate of the people as Li Jing is. The officials are rampant and domineering. They don't care about the lives of the people at all, and they only see their own interests.

Yun Xi and Su Ruoqi returned to the car, Su Ruoqi remembered what he had just heard from that woman, and punched the car.I really didn't expect that the empress would be so domineering.After suffering the common people, he decided that he must retake his own throne.

Even if it's not for himself, for the future of the people, he still has to take on this responsibility.You can't watch the land that your father has worked so hard to destroy in the queen's hands.I must rush to Xu Wei immediately, get the power to resist the queen this morning, and give the people a stable tomorrow.

Seeing Su Ruoqi like this, Yun Xi made up his mind, no matter what happens in the future, she will always be by Su Ruoqi's side and give him strength.What the queen is doing now is really too much.The common people are miserable, if this continues, the country will be destroyed.I can only hope that Su Ruoqi can regain his throne as soon as possible.

Su Ruoqi at the side stroked Yunxi's hair, looked into Yunxi's eyes and said, "It's okay, stay with me when I'm in trouble. Believe me, I will definitely regain the throne and put Those upright ministers have been brought back to give the people a happy life."

Yun Xi nodded, didn't say anything, and buried her head in Su Ruoqi's arms.Perhaps this is the best encouragement for Su Ruoqi.

On the other side of the border, General Xu Wei was still unaware that the Queen wanted him to return to Beijing, let alone that Su Ruoqi had worked so hard to find him.
