The two children are both very cute, and the older one can already talk. "

Lu Chensheng babbled on, and there was a sentence on the left, which seemed a little inarticulate, but Lu Chensheng obviously didn't care, and just continued talking.

Qiong Yue occasionally followed up with a few words, but most of the time she listened quietly.

She knew that her husband hadn't worshiped Jiuniang for a long time, so she would naturally have a lot to say when he came back this time, and wanted to spend more time with Jiuniang.

It wasn't until evening, when the world gradually sank to the top of the mountain, that Lu Chensheng got up and went back to Taohuawu with Qiong Yue.

In Taohuawu, there are already many memos placed directly on the table.

These are the memorabilia sent back from all over the Jiang country, and Lu Chensheng needs to deal with them.

It has only stopped for a few days, and this thing is piled up again.

Lu Chensheng looked helpless, but he could only go to the table to start processing. Even the dinner was brought aside by Qiong Yue, and he ate while processing.

Chapter 579 It's not easy to deal with business

"I'm afraid Chengzhou Kingdom will not retreat for a while. We need to stay here for a while."

Lu Chensheng looked at it, and there was a letter from Xinghancheng inside.

It was written by Wang Tianxun.

It described the battle situation of Xing Seoul in detail, but it directly blocked Cheng Zhou's invasion. For a while, the opponent would not be able to take down Xing Seoul, but they would not withdraw easily.

Qiong Yue sat aside, she didn't really care about hearing the words at the moment.

"It's okay to stay in Taohuawu for a while, and I haven't been back for a long time."

Qiong Yue replied softly.

Hearing these words, Lu Chensheng looked at Qiongyue at the side, and nodded slightly.

"I haven't been back for a few years. I'm afraid there are a lot of wild ginseng in the stockade. I asked someone to pick some back. I will make some ginseng soup for my husband in a few days. The husband is so busy these days, it's all here. I didn't sleep until midnight."

Qiongyue felt a little distressed, she was not in Xinghan city at the moment, so she could only think about getting some wild ginseng from the stockade to supplement Lu Chensheng.

Lu Chensheng smiled wryly when he heard the words, "Ma'am, your body is not too weak for your husband."

"It is possible now, but you must also pay attention to it."

Qiong Yue didn't listen to this, she just wanted to get some wild ginseng for Lu Chensheng to nourish his body.

Seeing Qiongyue's determination, Lu Chensheng nodded and could only follow Qiongyue.

In the places that have just been recovered, things are extremely heavy now.

Now Liu Xiangnan has also returned to Fufeng City, and is in the process of making drastic reforms.

Because of Lu Chensheng's policy, Fufeng City doesn't need to hand in much grain this year, and the people can live a good year this year.

What annoyed Lu Chensheng was that after the soldiers took over the granaries in various places, there was no grain in the granaries in most places, and even if there was food in some places, they only used partitions to store a little. Food, used to fool people.

Such information made Lu Chensheng very annoyed.

After a careful inspection of the situation, Lu Chensheng found out that the large amount of food harvested in Xing Seoul City in the past two years has caused the price of food in Jiang Country to rise a lot, so the officials guarding the granary could not resist the temptation and sold the food directly .

This caused the situation that there was no food in the granary.

For these officials, Lu Chensheng didn't have the slightest sympathy, and with a wave of the ink pen, they all replied with a word of killing.

Lu Chensheng kept reminding himself that now he is very different from before, he can decide the life and death of tens of thousands of people with just a simple move of his pen.

Therefore, it is necessary to be extra careful when imposing the death penalty on a person.

But seeing that these granaries were all empty, he still let his anger rise, and he couldn't stop wanting to directly kill the entire clan of the opponent before he was reconciled.

This is because there is no major disaster now, and this year is considered to be a good one. Otherwise, if there are countless refugees this year, what should we do?

The granaries are all empty. Although Xing Seoul City has a lot of grain reserves, it cannot withstand the tens of millions of refugees.

At that time, there will definitely be dead bodies everywhere.

Even Qiong Yue could see Lu Chensheng slapping the table violently from time to time, his face full of anger.

"I was still thinking about whether it was possible to select some of these officials to take up the post again, but now it depends on the situation, it is completely useless."

Seeing the news that another granary was empty, Lu Chensheng couldn't suppress the anger on his face.

Without these granaries, Lu Chensheng himself felt insecure, and he didn't know how much it would cost to fill these granaries.

Now that taxes have been reduced, the common people can live more comfortably, but Lu Chensheng has some difficulties.

With a big family and a big business, there are more places to spend money.

"Husband, let's calm down. Didn't my husband say before that these officials are like this? If they don't keep them, they will still be like this when they take office later. At that time, they will still watch them continue to greedy ink, and then continue to kill .

It's so endless that there will be no more officials available. "

Qiongyue knew about this situation to some extent, and Lu Chensheng would not be able to kill some officials who made minor mistakes.

The main reason is that after the killing, they have to find another one. There are not many people who can handle the work with experience, and the gap during this period will delay things.

"That's right, but where can they move the granary?"

Lu Chensheng frowned and said, "It can only be killed, not killing is not enough to deter some officials, and I don't like these people, so I just need to recruit some officials."

Lu Chensheng is naturally many times busy now without any handy officials who can be summoned.

As for these people, they can only be killed.

The officials in Xinghan city are paid very well, the benefits are also very good, and they are extremely loved.

Due to these factors, Lu Chensheng was much stricter with those people.

Originally, I thought that some of the officials on Jiang's side had dirty hands and feet, and he could just look at them, but the granary was moved, how could Lu Chensheng not be angry?

No matter how you move it, you can't move it to the granary!

These people who were unborn were moved, far exceeding the bottom line that Lu Chensheng himself gave them, so Lu Chensheng would not be polite.

Seeing this, Qiongyue didn't say much, her husband has made such a decision, she won't interfere with anything.

"Come on, go to Fufeng City and ask Liu Xiangnan if he has any close friends who are talented."

All these places are in a mess now, no one can do it, and there is no chaos right now, but if it is not resolved, it will happen sooner or later.

When a servant outside heard the words, he immediately responded, and then hurried towards Fufeng City.

Liu Xiangnan himself has been in the officialdom for a long time, so no matter what he said, he should know many close friends.

If there is some talent, there is an extreme shortage of manpower now, and Lu Chensheng feels that they can still be used.

From the looks of it, it's better to go back to Xing Seoul earlier.

It had already been decided that when they returned to Xinghan City, they would call together talented people from all over the world to conduct a large-scale selection.

At that time, it should be possible to select a lot of talents, and after some teaching, they can take office.

However, the affairs of Chengzhou State delayed Lu Chensheng's plan a lot. If Chengzhou State didn't withdraw troops soon, the chaos here would not be able to settle down.

Thinking of this, Lu Chensheng felt a bit of a headache.

I don't know, how is Xing Han outside now?

Thinking of this, Lu Chensheng couldn't help frowning slightly.

At this moment, the general of Chengzhou Kingdom outside Xinghan City is also caught in a dilemma.

Siege, it seems impossible to fight, but if you don't fight, how can you go back to do business?

5 Chapter Eighty

"General, what should we do now?"

In Cheng Zhou Kingdom's camp, the generals at the side looked at the main general with a bit of trepidation.

At first, I thought that it would be much easier for the soldiers of Star Seoul to take it down, but what I never expected was that it would not be so easy to take down Star Seoul at all.

The bottle that was thrown by the opponent, after bursting directly, kerosene would spread out, forming a sea of ​​flames in a short while.

In this way, if the soldiers want to attack the city, they need to cross the sea of ​​fire. How can this work?

What's more, these broken glass is extremely easy to injure soldiers.

Therefore, everyone feels that this star Seoul is extremely difficult to break through.

What's more, there are warships wandering around all the time. Speaking of which, this warship is simply a nightmare for the soldiers.

You can only watch the opponent hit you, but if you can't hit the opponent, even if you shoot the opponent with an arrow, you can't hurt anyone at all.

In such a situation, how to fight the opponent?

The key point is that there is a towering city wall in front, and the walls on both sides are also extremely high. If you want to attack from the flanks, you have to climb the mountain first.

That mountain, no one passed by at all, the mountain is full of trees, and the mountain road is rugged, which is more difficult than a frontal attack on the city.

Facing such a city, the generals felt helpless.

Hearing the general's words, the chief general also had a serious expression on his face.

He naturally knew how difficult it was to take down this city of Seoul. If it was really that easy, this city of Seoul would have already been taken down.

He also knew that the soldiers couldn't get close to the warships, and they almost let them slaughter at will.

As far as this warship is concerned, even he feels helpless.

Also because of this, he didn't criticize the general who retreated at that time.

If they hadn't retreated at that time, the soldiers on the right wing would have all died.

The chief general didn't speak, and the general at the side stood there for a while, then cautiously raised his head.

"General, why don't we withdraw? I heard that Jiang Guo is gone. If the other party gathers up soldiers and rushes back, how can we stop them? The troops in Xing Seoul are at the forefront."

Anyway, that is also the role of the murderous Tartars, and they are the ones who lead the army under Zhou Guobaiyi.

As far as this situation is concerned, they couldn't help but ignore it.

In case Bai Yi really rushed back with the soldiers, they would be unable to leave even if they wanted to.

When it comes to leading troops to fight, they really feel that they are not as good as this General Bai Yi, and it is not for nothing that they are called General Gui.

When the Lord General heard this, his face immediately became solemn.

"It's not good to attack the city, so if you go back like this, you will be held accountable!"

"But General, Xinghan City can't be taken down right now. What if Baiyi comes back? The soldiers she leads are all the best among the elite. Jiang Guocai has persisted for a long time, and he was also taken down."

When the general heard the words, he also replied helplessly.

Things have come to this point, if he doesn't talk about it, they might not be able to go back.

Hearing this, the general frowned immediately, if Bai Yi came back, I'm afraid they would all be given away in vain.

He understands how powerful Bai Yi is, and he also knows this fact.

But if you just go back like this, it will definitely not be good.

Thinking of this, even he himself is full of helplessness. If it is possible, he actually doesn't want to do this.

It's so easy to beat Xing Seoul.

Even if it is defeated, aren't you afraid of the other party's revenge?

The opponent's army has not been wiped out, so why do you think that you can sit back and relax after taking down Xing Seoul?

As the coach of the first army, he can only persevere now, and it is inappropriate to go back directly like this.

"Hey, let the soldiers rest for a while, the attack will begin tomorrow."

The chief general thought for a while, and waved his hand to make him retreat. The general wanted to go back, but he didn't mean to go back when he said he would go back.

Hearing the words, the general also sighed, he knew the chief general's difficulties, seeing the general's behavior at this moment, he had no choice but to nod his head, turned around and retreated.

Da Cang Kingdom, more than 100 miles away from the city of Chuibian.

Bai Yicong got off immediately, looked at the terrain, and then beckoned Cheng Xue to her.

"Where is this place?"

"Return to the general, this place is about 110 miles southeast of Chubian City, a place called Baitou Mountain. You only need to go straight along here to reach Chubian City."
