Chapter 1248 Dayan’s Dilemma

Ning Guzhou agreed with her: "It makes sense."

The couple smiled at each other.

Cheng Lixue, who was standing aside to watch the ceremony, felt a chill. He looked around and found nothing unusual, so he didn't think much about it.

Little Sweet Dou over there had already finished her salute. Mu Yunxiu took out a token from his arms and gave it to Little Sweet Dou: "Keep this."

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they saw the token.

Little Sweet Dou asked with some confusion: "Master, what is this?"

Mu Yunxiu replied: "This is the leader token of Mo Sect. You are my only disciple, so I will leave this to you for safekeeping."

Little Sweet Dou didn't know what Momen was, but others present did.

Although Momen is a powerful force in the world, most of them are reclusive. Even if they are born, they will not interfere with the affairs of the court.

However, all the disciples of Momen are extremely extraordinary. In addition to being well-read in poetry and books, they may have peerless martial arts, understand astrology and divination, or be good at the art of mechanism.

There were rumors in the world before that as long as a disciple of the Mo Sect appeared, the troubles in the world could be quelled.

Tang Miaoxin was a little surprised: "I didn't expect that you are still the head of the Mo Sect."

Mu Yunxiu said quietly: "Momen doesn't care about worldly affairs. I left the valley just because of old grudges."

"I originally planned to go back after taking revenge and stop talking about worldly affairs, but I couldn't let go of this fate with you."

"Let's do this for now. If something unexpected happens in the future, we can make other plans."

Tang Miaoxin looked at the Mo Clan leader's token in Xiao Tiandou's hand and felt that it was a great deal for her to instigate Mu Yunxiu.

This is to instigate a traitor, and you will get a whole nest!

After all, as we all know, the abilities of the Momen disciples are absolutely outstanding!

She began to wonder in her mind, how could she find out the location of the Mo Sect from Mu Yunxiu's mouth and drag the Mo Sect's disciples to work in the court?

Mu Yunxiu saw the look in her eyes and felt that something was up to her.

He has gotten to know her better recently and can vaguely guess what she wants to do.

He said with a dark face: "The disciples of Momen never ask about the affairs of the court. It was a special circumstance that I came out of the valley. Your Highness, please don't take any chances with them."

Tang Miaoxin curled her lips slightly and said, "You have so much talent but you can't escape the world, so why have they studied so hard for so many years?"

These words stopped Mu Yunxiu.

He had been learning skills in Momen since he was a child and had never thought about these issues.

But he knew that if he followed his words, he would fall into her trap again.

He said calmly: "Cultivation of one's moral character."

Tang Miaoxin: "..."

She suddenly found that it was quite irritating for a gentle gentleman like Mu Yunxiu to really quarrel with others.

She planned to discuss this matter with Mu Yunxiu.

Mu Yunxiu said directly: "If Your Highness wants me to tell you the location of Mo Sect, you might as well kill me directly."

"I admire His Highness for recruiting talents from all over the world."

"But the ancestral precepts of Momen are here, and I will not violate them."

Tang Miaoxin let out a long sigh and said, "Forget it, as long as you persist, I won't make things difficult for you."

Anyway, Mu Yunxiu will be tied up to work in the future. No matter how secretive the Momen is, clues will always come out over time.

Unless Mu Yunxiu never contacts Momen in this life.

She is now the latent heir, and with this status constraint, sometimes things are not as convenient as before.

Mu Yunxiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her words.

Nothing too special happened on the rest of the journey.

Their group consisted of many carriages and horses, so Ning Guzhou simply asked everyone to pretend to be a caravan.

Starting from the southernmost part of Dayan, all the way to the north, we marched towards Qinzhou.

It's summer now and the weather is hot.

The return dive was fine before, but after arriving at Dayan, the temperature increased significantly.

Along the way, they saw a lot of cracked land in Qingzhou and Huaizhou.

Many of the crops in the fields were withered, yellow and scorched to death, and the people's faces looked extremely sad.

After Tang Miaoxin became pregnant, she was particularly afraid of heat. She was pregnant and was not suitable for using ice.

It was so hot all day long that she had no appetite, and she lost a lot of weight in a few days.

Ning Guzhou was very worried when he saw her like this, but there was nothing he could do.

Tang Miaoxin has never been a delicate woman, and this journey has been really uncomfortable.

Ning Guzhou felt sorry for her and rushed on the road every morning and evening. When the sun was shining brightly, he would look for a place to rest.

As a result, their speed is a bit slow.

Along the way, they were a bit conspicuous because of their large number, and they encountered several waves of bandits who were not very discerning.

Ning Guzhou took Mo Li and other guards directly and beat the crap out of those bandits.

Mu Yunxiu was still the same as in Guiqian. Everywhere he went, he asked the local people about the situation.

After arriving in Dayan, he was deeply impressed. The geographical location of Guiqian is not as good as that of Dayan, with many mountains, forests, and vegetation, and relatively scarce cultivated land.

Dayanduo Plain, normally speaking, the people here would be richer.

But the fact is that taxes in Dayan are very heavy, and the people live in great hardship.

Although Dayan is not in a position where it is necessary to change people for food, the people do not have much food in their homes.

This year's drought has made people who were not already wealthy even poorer.

After Mu Yunxiu followed Tang Miaoxin to several state capitals, he looked thoughtful in his eyes.

He said to Ning Guzhou: "Natural disasters are inevitable."

"If you meet a wise king, you can manage such a disaster year and the people can live a good life."

"But if you encounter a foolish king and there is no food in the treasury, I'm afraid there will be turmoil."

Ning Guzhou asked him: "Do you want to save the people of Dayan?"

Mu Yunxiu shook his head and said: "I can't save them, the only one who can save them is the wise king."

"The King of Qin is the King of Qin of Yan. Do you have any thoughts on this matter?"

Ning Guzhou said quietly: "Before I set off from Guiqian, I received a letter from Ruan Sizhui, the governor of Qinzhou, saying that there was a severe drought in Qinzhou this year."

"You now see that the drought in Qingzhou and Chenzhou is so serious. Qinzhou is even more water-scarce than these two states, and the disaster will only be more severe."

"Even if this is an excellent opportunity to win over the people, with the current situation in Qinzhou, there is no way to save the people of Qingzhou and Chenzhou."

He saw these things very clearly.

Qinzhou was originally the poorest place in Dayan. He took over Qinzhou for only a few years. Within a few years, Qinzhou's combat power could not be improved much, and the people became a lot richer.

But even so, Qinzhou is destined to be unable to produce excess food due to its geographical location.

During the famine years, Qinzhou's abundant gems could not be exchanged for much rice from other countries.

Guiqian had plenty of food and grass, but Guiqian was too far away from Qinzhou, so transporting food from Guiqian to Qinzhou caused huge losses.

Mu Yunxiu asked him: "If you were the emperor of Dayan, what would you do?"

Ning Guzhou replied: "Build the canal."
