Journey to Heaven: Kamen Rider’s Journey to Immortality

After listening to Liu Xinghe's words, Emperor Long Yan Dayue: "I don't know how General Ning plans to defend." Liu

Xinghe thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, we can first fortify the wall and clear the wilderness, and then centralize the management of the grain in the capital, so we can avoid the profiteers from stockpiling grain, prevent the people from panicking, and secondly, we can concentrate materials to fight a protracted war." "

Although Donglan is a coastal country, based on commercial fisheries, but its own agriculture is also good, barely self-sufficient, there are three granaries in the capital, which are used as royal court food, military food, and civilian emergency food, which is probably enough for the capital to support a year or two.

The emperor nodded and said: "Before the army went to the south of the Yangtze River, most of the military grain was allocated to the capital, and the royal court did not store much grain, but there was still a lot of civilian emergency food. As he

spoke, the emperor looked at Xiangguo Ai Qian and said, "Ai Aiqing, it seems that you are managing the granary for civil emergency grain, right?"

Ai Qian's face changed when he heard this, but he quickly changed back: "No, the food matter has always been in the hands of the household department, right, Lord Li."

At this time, Li Yushan, the head of the household, was already bloodless, sweating profusely and didn't know what to say, just looked at Ai Qian vigorously.

Seeing that Li Yushan was speechless, the emperor asked suspiciously: "Lord Li, what's the matter, how much grain is there in the granary?"

Ai Qian glanced at Li Yushan and said, "Lord Li, didn't you take stock last time, tell Your Majesty quickly."

Li Yushan suddenly realized, and hurriedly reported to the emperor: "Yes, Your Majesty, Weichen has taken stock before.

"Since you have counted what is so divisive, hurry up and report it. "

Please forgive your majesty, because there are too many activities this year, first the Spring Festival, and then the princess recruited relatives and married, consuming a lot of food, Weichen is afraid of being punished by His Majesty, so he lost his temper, and asked His Majesty to forgive him." The

Emperor touched his beard, indeed, too much had happened in recent months, and the treasury had spent a lot more than usual, so he did not doubt it: "That's it, I know all this, you tell me how much food I still have."

"According to Weichen's inventory, there are ...... in the granary," Li Yushan said sweatingly: "The remaining stock in the granary is probably still ...... Prop up...... Support half ...... Support for a year and a half.

"What? It's only going to last a year and a half. The emperor frowned, but he thought that Liu Xinghe said that Yingzhou could only last for three or four months at most, so it was still acceptable: "Forget it, a year and a half will be a year and a half, and then the expenses of the palace will be saved." "

Your Majesty is wise!"

"Okay, that's the end of today's court meeting, let's retreat."

As the emperor and the ministers left the Jinluan Hall one after another, Li Yushan breathed a sigh of relief, he wiped his sweaty forehead and turned to look at Ai Qian, the two looked at each other, their faces sank, and then left one after the other.

Xiangguo Mansion.

"Lord Xiangguo, this time you must save the lower official.

In the study of Xiangguo Mansion, Li Yushan knelt at Ai Qian's feet and kowtowed like pounding garlic, while Ai Qian held a cup of fragrant tea and said unhurriedly: "Lord Li, you smuggle and resell the grain saved by the state, this is a capital crime, even if I have the ability to go to heaven, I can't save you, you still honestly confess like Your Majesty, the old man has been an official in the same dynasty for many years, and he will ensure that your three clans will not die."

Li Shuwen stood up from the ground suddenly, and hurriedly said: "Lord Xiangguo, you can't say that, I respect you for most of the money from reselling grain, you didn't have a soft heart when you received the money, but now it's none of your business?"

Ai Qian's face darkened, and he snorted coldly: "Are you threatening the old man."

Li Shuwen immediately coaxed, knelt down and begged: "Even if I give me a hundred guts, I don't dare to threaten Xiangguo, but for the sake of Xiaguan following Xiangguo and sitting down for many years, he has served so hard before and after the saddle, and there is no merit and hard work, so you can be merciful and save Xiaguan."

Ai Qian pondered for a long time and asked, "How much grain is left in the warehouse?"

Li Shuwen trembled and stretched out two fingers and said, "There are less than two months left." "

Hehehe. Ai Qian squinted at Li Shuwen, and his cold laughter was cold to the bone marrow: "Li Yushan, Li Yushan, I didn't expect you to be so bold that you dared to eat so much secretly behind my back, the old man really underestimated you."

Li Yushan was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Lord Xiangguo, the little one is wrong, don't worry, I will definitely honor you with all the ones I eat, and please save the little one." "

Humph!" Ai Qian snorted coldly, his eyes rolled in his eyes, and then he showed a sinister and vicious smile: "Li Yushan, your courage is still too small, if I were you, I wouldn't have left these two months of food."

Li Yushan asked puzzledly: "What does Lord Xiangguo mean?"

"Since you have taken it, just take it all, and don't leave a grain of rice, hehehehe." The

bone-chilling chill made Li Yushan swallow his saliva unconsciously.

The night was like ink, and because of the war, the curfew in the capital was again, and it was stricter than before, and the wide streets were empty, not even the watchmen, except for the occasional few heavily armed patrols passing by.

The lights in the Protector's Mansion were bright, and the Huangfu Hero and Liu Xinghe sat in front of the desk to discuss the enemy's strategy.

"According to the report from the spies, the Yingzhou army will come to the city in about five days, and their goal is very clear, that is, the capital. Liu Xinghe looked at the movement map of the Yingzhou army sent by the outpost and said: "The other party did not divide his troops to other places along the way, but came directly to the capital. "

Before, in order to defend against the invasion of Yingzhou, the heroes of Huangfu not only implemented the sea ban, but also moved the people and materials in the coastal area to the city very presciently, so that although the coastal defense was weakened, the population, materials and troops were gathered, and at the same time the possibility of the other party plundering the people to feed the war, worthy of being a veteran of the battlefield.

Looking at the chess pieces on the sand table, the Huangfu hero touched Bai Huahua's beard and said disdainfully: "As far as these old men don't care about them at all, why do they need to stick

to the city?" Liu Xinghe smiled and said: "The old man's martial arts are world-famous, and his cultivation is profound, so he is naturally not afraid of those shrimp soldiers and crab generals, but the other party is full of people, we also have to be careful, this is the capital, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, if you accidentally let the other party rush into the city, the consequences will be unimaginable." "

Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that Ai Qian's group of people had been slandering in front of His Majesty and didn't let me transfer Jiangnan's army back, otherwise the scum in Yingzhou wouldn't even think about coming up. "The heroes of the Emperor Fu were so angry that it was a great shame to let the enemy soldiers come to the city.

Seeing the heroic indignation of the emperor, Liu Xinghe sighed secretly in his heart and said: "Hey, the emperor is a villain, but it's not a good omen, and I don't know what will become of it in the future." "

It was a gloomy night, with a fierce wind blowing coldly, and the wind howling like a ghost crying wolf in the air, dark clouds covering the sun, the white moonlight turning into bottomless darkness, and the rolling clouds with nightmares obscuring the only glimmer of light, and everything trembling with the wind.

A group of armored guards walked across the city wall with neat steps, and the howling wind blew the torches to the left and right, and it was impossible to see the surroundings under the flickering lights, and just like that, the patrol soldiers left, and at this time, several agile black-clad ninjas crept out of the dark corner.

These few are wearing night clothes, the whole body is wrapped in black, only revealing a pair of dark and deep eyes, the whole person and the night are integrated, look carefully and you can find that there is a faint aura circulating around these ninjas, distorting the light, looking like a layer of fog from a distance, it can be seen that this group of ninjas are not bad.

Under the cover of night, the group of ninjas managed to avoid the patrol posts and quietly infiltrated the city, flying up and down the walls, and darting back and forth from rooftop alley to the center of the city like cats.

"Ninja Fire Dragon has summoned.

With a deafening dragon roar, a hundred-foot-long fire dragon suddenly appeared in the center of the city, although it was only for a moment, but a large manor in the center of the city turned into a sea of fire.

The raging fire seemed to be mad, scurrying around with the wind, devouring everything with impunity, and the crimson flame was like an arrogant painter, painting everything he went black with a brush in his hand.

"It's on fire, come and put out the fire. "

Run, it's on fire." "

Help!"

the flames were like a whirlwind. It was the middle of the night, and many people were still asleep, but they were awakened by the sky-high fire.

Some fires burned out the confusion and fear of people's hearts, cries, shouts, and all the noisy sounds were distorted in this fire, and people's sense of terror and tension was infinitely amplified, and the red light burning in the darkness was like a summoning signal of death.

In the dark, Ai Qian and Li Yushan rushed to the scene of the fire with the guards, watching everyone busy fighting the fire and rescuing, the two of them looked at each other behind their backs and smiled.

Some fires burn the hopes and pillars in people's hearts and turn them into ashes.

"Father, big brother, it's not good!"

Huang Fu Lie hurriedly returned to the Protector Mansion and woke up Liu Xinghe and Huang Fu Hero.

Looking at the skyrocketing fire, the two were shocked and immediately asked, "What happened?"

and "Grain...... The granary caught fire. "
