Chapter 691 Zhu Yuluo wants to see Li Chaosheng

"Princess!"

In the teaching building of Lantian Academy, Mu Tianliu, the young prince of Yunnan Mu Palace, bought the fresh orange juice that Zhu Aona loved to drink most, and handed it to Zhu Auao who was leaning against the railing and looking into the distance.

Zhu Ya'ao looked back at Mu Tianliu and smiled: "I told you, don't call me princess, call me Ya'ao!"

Mu Tianliu was stunned when he heard this and then said: "Well, drink it quickly, this orange juice has been added with honey, it's very sweet!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yasuo took a sip and said, "Well, it's very sweet."

Mu Tianliu smiled and said, "Well, as long as you like it."

"Do you know why I like this orange juice with honey?"

Zhu Aelao asked. After hearing this, Mu Tianliu said: "I don't know."

"Because my life has been too bitter, and I want to use sweetness to comfort myself. It's really too bitter."

Hearing this, Mu Tianliu held Zhu Aona's hand: "Why did you say such a thing today?"

Zhu Aao said with a bitter face: "It's nothing."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked into the distance, but his face was already covered with tears. Mu Tianliu looked at Zhu Yuyao blankly for a long time before saying, "What's wrong?"

At this time, Zhu Yasuo suddenly hugged Mu Tianliu's arms and cried, "I, I'm going back to the capital!"

"Go back to the capital?!"

Mu Tianliu was stunned for a moment, then he held Zhu Ya'a's shoulders, looked at Zhu Ya'a and said: "You are going back to the capital? Why?"

Hearing this, Zhu Aao said with a bitter look on her face: "My father is ill, and life for my mother and several younger brothers is also very difficult. As a child, if you cannot share the worries of your parents, that would be the greatest unfilial piety in the world, so I have to go back."

"

Hearing this, Mu Tianliu looked at Zhu Aona and said: "The country is like this, what can you, a weak woman, do when you return to the capital and do that?"

Zhu Yusao smiled bitterly and said: "How will you know if you don't try? In fact, I am very grateful to Lan Tian."

"Thank you Lan Tian?"

Mu Tianliu looked at Zhu Yurao in confusion, and Zhu Yurao said: "In the past year or so in Lantian, I have learned knowledge that I have not learned in the fourteen years of my life. At the same time, I have also realized the shortcomings of Ming Dynasty and Lantian. I

Regarding the gap between my father and Li Chaosheng, I know that my father will never be able to defeat Li Chaosheng, and it is impossible for me to change the gap between Lantian and Ming Dynasty with my own strength."

"But I can't do nothing. I want to go back and tell my father what I saw in Lantian. I won't let him become a frog in the well. Even if it doesn't work in the end, I will do everything possible to bring my mother and queen back to me.

Save my brother."

Zhu A'ao looked at Mu Tianliu and said. After hearing this, Mu Tianliu looked at Zhu A'ao and said: "Rescue, where do you want to take your mother and brother?"

Zhu Ainao said: "Lantian!"

"Lantian!?"

After hearing this, Mu Tianliu's eyes widened and he said: "Lantian? This, this can't be done. Will the county magistrate let the empress and prince of Ming Dynasty come to Lantian? Impossible, the county magistrate will not agree."

Mu Tianliu said, after hearing this Zhu Yurao shook his head and said: "No, Li Chaosheng would agree. He is a confident man. He is a warrior who despises the imperial power and wants to overthrow all the old order. He will not be afraid of anyone. Besides, that

At that time, the people who come to Lantian will not be the queen or prince of the Ming Dynasty, but an ordinary wealthy businessman family. When the time comes, we only need to pay taxes according to the rules of Lantian, and Li Chaosheng will not make things difficult for us."

Mu Tianliu said: "The county magistrate is the greatest person I have ever seen. I admit his greatness, but no matter how great he is, he still wants to be the emperor. Your existence is unsettling to him."

Factors, your presence will make interested people think of restoration, and will bring endless trouble to Lantian. I think even the county magistrate will not let you bring them to Lantian so easily."

Zhu Ya'ao hesitated after hearing Mu Tianliu's words, but after a while she shook her head and said: "No matter what, I have to give it a try, otherwise my mother and brother will have to wait for death. I don't want to see them stay in the Forbidden City."

, died there like pets in a cage. I hope they can live a new self in the new world. For example, my brother Zhu Cixiang likes painting very much. If possible, I hope he can become a painter in the future."

Mu Tianliu heard this and said, "Do you need me to help you?"

Zhu Yuyao said: "No need, that empire has decayed. It is enough for the Zhu family to be the funeral companions of that empire. You are talented, and you have a bright future even in this academy. If that old ship sinks, just take some with you."

It's enough for you to be an old antique. You should stay in Lantian. I heard people say that the county magistrate was very satisfied with your policy last time and wanted to promote you. You should not have to wade through this muddy water. It's not worth it."

After hearing this, Mu Tianliu looked at Zhu Yuyao for a long time before saying, "I am willing to do it for you."

Zhu Aao shook her head and said, "I don't want to."

…

At the Lantian County Government Office, Li Chaosheng was reading the reception report from Shandong. Just yesterday, Li Zicheng completely abandoned the land west of Shandong. Li Chaosheng immediately sent Li Chaolong to lead an army to occupy the land, and arranged for the district chief to take over the population of Shandong. It has to be said

Li Zicheng was so ruthless that he plundered all the wealth in Shandong.

However, Li Zicheng was also particular about it. Although he packed away all the gold and silver treasures that could be eaten and used, the people were left behind by Li Chaosheng. It can even be said that almost all of them were left behind. However, after staying, Li Chaosheng had to face the third problem.

One problem is the problem of feeding millions of people in Shandong.

This is actually Li Zicheng's strategic plan. Li Zicheng is not a fool. He knows that Lantian is trying to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, so he can't just wait for Lantian to kill him, so he thinks of a way to bring down Lantian's economy.

, as long as Lantian's economy collapses, then Li Chaosheng will not have such an absolute advantage over them.

Therefore, Li Zicheng issued a military order, asking the soldiers to only search for food and gold and silver treasures, and to do their best to avoid harming human lives, and to throw these hungry people as burdens to Lantian.

But what he didn't expect was that Lantian had spent ten years laying a solid foundation in order to accumulate strength. In the past ten years, Lantian had actively developed fertile land and hoarded grain. Now the grain hoarded by Lantian is enough to feed and drink 50 to 60 million people for a year.

And as long as this difficult year passes, new grains will grow in various places in the second year, and then the food shortage problem in Lantian can be filled.

If it hadn’t been for Lan Tian’s many years of accumulation, he wouldn’t have achieved what he does today.

Shandong is taking over one after another, and as long as Shandong takes over, Lantian will basically have control over the Ming Dynasty. From a strategic point of view, Lantian will split the Ming Dynasty into two parts from the middle. In the upper part, only Shanxi and He BJ will be left.

The land around the city belongs to the Ming Dynasty's actual control area.

Looking further down, Lantian has controlled Hubei, Hunan and Jiangxi, leaving only AH, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. This Jiangnan area is not within the control of Li Chaosheng, and apart from here, there is only the land of Fujian, here

The current king is Zheng Zhibao. For Zheng Zhibao, Li Chaosheng feels that he is just his own dish, and he can eat whatever he wants.

In addition to these two places, the southwest, Shuzhong, and Yunnan-Guizhou were also isolated by Li Chaosheng's Lantian County. In this way, the world was completely divided into three parts by Li Chaosheng. The northeast is the three provinces that Ming Dynasty now reserves. Of course

I'm afraid it won't last long, because Li Zicheng has already set his sights on this place.

The southeast and Jiangnan areas were prosperous places controlled by the literati class of the Ming Dynasty.

Finally, there is Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan in the southwest. The main reason here is that Li Chaosheng has not spared his time. Now Li Chaosheng's main job is to stabilize the resettlement issues of the people's livelihood in the newly recovered provinces. Only if these resettlement issues are solved, then Lantian's

Only the foundation is stable enough. As for competing for the world, don't worry.

This is Li Chaosheng's usual practice. If Li Chaosheng is obsessed with conquering the world, then if he takes over the world now, he will definitely be tortured by these hungry people, and he may even starve to death under his rule!

This is a very fatal thing for Li Chaosheng or for Lantian as a whole. Think about it, what will happen if these lands are returned to Lantian and people starve to death on a large scale?

Someone with good intentions will definitely spread the word that Lamtian is not that good, and people will starve to death, right?

In this way, Lantian's appeal to people from all over the country is not as great as imagined, and it is difficult for Li Chaosheng to remain indifferent to the people in other provinces who are waiting for food. In the end, it is very likely that he will get distracted by busy work, such as collecting more grain for the people of Lantian.

As a result, the local people will suffer from hunger, which is likely to lead to the collapse of the basic market.

So for ten years of forbearance, and after ten years of accumulation by Li Chaosheng, it is impossible for a snake to swallow an elephant if the people are not satisfied with it. But if this snake is an ancient Titan snake, although it is somewhat difficult to swallow an elephant, it is not as impossible as imagined.

.

This strategy of Li Chaosheng was very successful, and when Li Chaosheng accumulated enough, he could start to devour the world.

And now Li Chaosheng has revealed his minions to the world, letting the world know how terrible Lantian is.

Li Chaosheng thought and looked at Hebei and Shanxi on the military map.

Where will Li Zicheng attack first next?

Li Chaosheng looked at the map and fell into deep thought, but in the end Li Chaosheng still saw Shanxi. The reason was that for no other reason, Chongzhen, Hebei Province gathered a large number of soldiers and horses, which could be hundreds of thousands in total. Although Li Zicheng had many soldiers and horses,

But if you attack forcefully, the effect will be poor.

If he were Li Zicheng, he would definitely attack Shanxi first. Attacking Shanxi would not only distract Ming Dynasty, but also get some supplies. Why not?

I think Li Zicheng thought the same way.

Li Chaosheng murmured, and at this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Gu Zi walked in. After entering, his face looked a little strange and he said: "Your Majesty."

"Um?"

Li Chaosheng looked at Gu Zi with a strange expression. He didn't know what happened to Gu Zi, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

Gu Zi said with an incomprehensible expression: "Your Majesty, Zhu Ainao wants to see you!"

"Zhu Ailao wants to see me?"

Li Chaosheng looked at Guzi with a puzzled expression, and Guzi nodded and said, "Yeah."

"Now?"

Li Chaosheng asked again. After hearing this, Guzi nodded again and said, "I'm waiting outside the county government office, and I want to see the county magistrate alone."

Li Chaosheng looked at the sky outside and said, "What time is it?"

Gu Zi said: "It's almost nine o'clock in the evening."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at Gu Zi and said, "It's already so late. You should go back to Zhu Ainao. It's not good for her reputation to see you so late."
