Overgod Ascension - 485. Chapter 485 Decline (800 plus)

Dingzhou City, State Shepherd House.

As soon as Yu Wen entered the back house, the tip of his nose moved, and he smelled a strong smell of medicine.

The dark clouds in the sky were low, the cold wind howled, and the faint crying from the side made him tighten his neck.

‘It is rumored that Master Zhou Mu suddenly vomited blood for three liters. It seems that it is not groundless! ‘

He was thinking silently in his heart, but there was a look of sorrow on his face.

Dingzhou is in a hurry, and the governor Gaoshun has completely discharged his duties, and all the heavy burdens are placed on Xu Chun. This person supports the sick body, sleeps sleeplessly at night, and becomes ill from exhaustion, but it is also a matter of course.

Yu Wen sighed, but now, it really seemed like a fate.

“Master Yu!”

The subordinate went in to report, and it didn’t take long for a housekeeper to greet him: “I don’t know what the lord is here, why?”

“It’s just a small matter… In the severe winter, the dripping water turns into ice. The soldiers in the city urgently need 3,000 sets of winter clothes, as well as hot coals, medicinal materials and other things…”

As Yu Wen spoke, he saw embarrassment on the butler’s face.

The army besieged the city, not only delayed the autumn harvest, but also the money and grain of the counties and counties. Of course, at this time, there was only this isolated city in Dingzhou.

The war is the munitions and supplies, and even if the state animal husbandry wants to raise money, it is not easy.

‘Especially… the family is all over the wall! Seeing that there is only one lone city left in Dingzhou, the imperial court reprimanded it in the name of the court, but no heavenly soldiers arrived. Why don’t you know how powerful it is? In addition, the spies of the Xie family and the Lin family continued to spread the news. As early as more than a month ago, they began to decline. They couldn’t make it through. Only dozens of stones of Chen Liang were released, just like a beggar…’

Taxes can’t be paid, and the aristocratic families can’t contribute, even though Yu Wen knows that Zhoucheng has reached a desperate situation!

Unless Zhang Wenzhen dares to kill all the clans in the city and collect all his food and property, he will definitely not survive next spring.

But if you really want to do this, especially under the premise that the army is under pressure, it’s just killing yourself.

What the gentry asked for was only guaranteeing the land and the power to advance to official positions. To be more serious, they didn’t care about which one was sitting on the dragon chair.

What’s more, the civil and martial arts in Mancheng also have inextricable relationships with these aristocratic families, or they are among them at all, even if Zhang Wenzhen wants to start, he will not be back!

‘Hey… the domestic and foreign affairs are difficult, Master Zhou Mu is eager to attack his heart, it is understandable…’

Yu Wen’s eyes flickered, and then he said: “Besides… my general heard that Mr. Zhou Mu’s condition was getting worse, and he specially ordered me to come to greet him, and dare to ask the lord…”

“Woo…”

At this moment, the inner house cried loudly.

On the sickbed, Zhou Mu Xu Chun was as thin as wood, with a face like white paper, with only a slight blush on his cheeks. It was obvious that he had reached the final stage of dying.

He stretched out his chicken-foot-like hand, as if he was about to grasp something, his chest was ho ho ho ho.

“Master… but what do you want to confess?”

Asked by his wife Zhang, he quickly scolded several concubines around him: “Be quiet, do you want to make the master uneasy when you wait?”

She was also from everyone, and she was able to survive, especially after Xu Chun died, she immediately took charge of life and death, and chasing away a few concubines was just a matter of thought.

Those few concubines had sons and daughters to rely on, but they were immediately frightened. Seeing that the master looked like a dead man, they completely lost their minds and didn’t dare to move at all.

“Country… Country…”

Xu Chun tried to move his lips, and finally uttered a few words: “National affairs are difficult, so pay for Zhang Wenzhen, Dong… Dong…”

But I couldn’t talk anymore, and closed my breath as soon as the palm of my hand fell.

“master!!”

Zhang’s palm touched, and Xu Chun’s breathing had stopped, and he couldn’t help crying bitterly after touching the corpse.

For a time, the whole inner house cried loudly.

When Yu Wen and the housekeeper were looking at each other, a small servant ran out, holding the prepared filial service and black belt, but he couldn’t make a sound: “Housekeeper Qian, sir…Master is gone…”

As soon as he said this, the butler also had black lips, as if he had lost his backbone in an instant.

Even if Yu Wen watched the collapse of the Dinghai Shenzhen in this state city, he suddenly fell into a trance.

I didn’t know how to say a few words while I was confused. I saw a few people and left in a muddled voice. Looking at the gloomy sky, Yu Wen suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

“Master Yu!”

When we reached a street corner, the two young servants who seemed to have been waiting for a long time came up immediately: “My master, please!”

“You are……”

Yu Wen’s eyes moved, but he didn’t say much, and followed them.

Outside the street corner, there was a carriage, covered on all sides, and the windows were covered with black cloth. Obviously, he was prepared. Yu Wenyi was bold enough to get in directly, and the carriage started immediately.

I don’t know how long it took before the carriage stopped behind a big house. Yu Wen shook his collar, entered the house, and was immediately led into the secret room by a housekeeper.

“Master Yu is here too!”

There was a lamp in the room, and seven or eight people had already been seated. Under the dim light, their complexions were all cloudy.

“So it’s you!”

Yu Wen naturally recognized that these were the middle-level civil and military in the state city. They belonged to the kind of people who were not well-known, but had key positions and were very crucial.

Of course, he himself was the same. Although he was only a governor’s document, he was able to enter and leave the mansion of the prefecture, and get close to Zhang Wenzhen.

Such forces are so connected, just thinking about it, his hands immediately began to tremble, but there was a little fiery in his eyes.

“Very good! Master Yu saw us and left as soon as he didn’t turn around. Second, he didn’t scold him immediately. It can be seen that he is also a fellow man!”

A young voice came, and a person who looked like a family prince came to the main seat: “Little brother Xie Wusi, I have seen you all!”

“Thanks to the family?”

Yu Wen nodded: “No wonder you can invite so many people, what do you want to do?”

“This should be the next question to the great talent!”

Xie Wusi smiled and said, “My lord has just left the prefecture, but Xu Chun is dead?”

Yu Wen was shocked, surprised at the fact that the Xie family was well-informed, but still nodded. After acknowledging this, everyone in the hall was of different shapes and colors, but they all felt relieved.

“Zhou Muping has always been generous and kind to me, but how can the small favor and small benefit be worthy of the life and death of the people in the city?”

A middle-aged officer spoke indifferently.

“Yes…Dingzhou City is about to be broken, I should also discuss the future, and also plan for the future of Zhou Mu!”

A civil official next to him said: “At least…with Wuzhen’s promise, the army will not commit any crimes after entering the city, and even the state shepherd family can be pardoned. This will not be a waste of the friendship of our colleagues…”

“Exactly!”

Several officers heard it, and they all brightened up and echoed loudly.

Yu Wen heard the cold hair standing on his back, and remembered the speaking official, thinking in his heart:’On the thick skin and cruel mind, this person can be said to be a handsome man for a while, and he will never be offended in the future…’

“very good!”

Xie Wusi was overjoyed: “Everyone who has a heart to the king is a great hero!”

The people didn’t even dare to talk, but Yu Wenzhen wanted to find a way out, and echoed a few sentences, but also half-pushed and half-situ agreed, and his face showed embarrassment: “It’s just that the military power in the city is mostly in the hands of Zhang Wenzhen. People are the confidants of the state shepherd, and the court is deadly loyal, so it’s hard to deal with…”

“Besides…there are those messengers!”

“Zhang Wenzhen was only a mere lieutenant before, so what’s the fear?”

Several military officers next to him said, “As for the seniority in the military, you still have to be behind a certain family, and you are wrong about the orders of the non-state animal husbandry. Which one is willing to listen to him?”

“A few people help, at least Simon is not a problem! As for Zhang Wenzhen?”

A sneer appeared at the corner of Xie Wusi’s mouth: “Since this person is determined to resist the heavenly soldiers, he can only be sent to death. Not only is he going to die, but the family can’t run away!”

This cold murderous aura immediately made Yu Wen agitated.

…

“Although I have known the principle of the number of qi in the same way, I don’t want the qi luck in Dingzhou city to decline so badly after Xu Chun’s death!”

Lao Dao returned to the post and called the scholars and generals: “I’ll be ready later, it’s time to go!”

“But when Xu Chun died, there was immediate instability in the city?”

The scholar stroked his beard and sighed.

“As long as there are clues, I will immediately contact Zhang Wenzhen to start first, and it is not impossible to fight!”

The general snorted coldly.

“This is the number of days, it can be recovered by non-manpower!”

The old way smiled bitterly, the whole family is preparing for the future, and they have other thoughts, what else can they do if they wait for strangers?

If it is to use mana and supernatural powers and forcefully suppress it, is it true that the hidden power on the opposite side is a vegetarian?

And forcibly resisting such luck, even if it is oneself, he will be deprived of merit and cause evil consequences.

“Go off! Go off!”

Therefore, I can only sigh.

“Oh…you…”

This general stomped his feet. If the old Dao is determined not to help, he will at most inform Zhang Wenzhen to step up his guard, but other things are simply unthinkable.

“Unexpectedly… Three hundred years ago, the end of the Shang Dynasty rebellion, the world revolutionized the tripod, and entered a period of intense…”

A trace of sadness appeared on the old Confucian’s face, but he didn’t say much.

Now it is obviously in a state of impossibility, they are not obliged to accompany their loyal minister to death.

…

Time flies by in a flash.

After six years of peace, Qingmo is seven years of peace.

The world is still in chaos, and in Dingzhou, the battle to besieged Dingzhou City finally came to the last moment.

The death of Xu Chun brought a trace of sorrow to the New Year. It not only swept away the last touch of celebration of the festive season, but also seemed to draw the last end to the rule of the old court in Dingzhou.

“Catapult, send!”

Qi Lin and Chen Jingzong took turns to attack the city every day in their spare time, and they continued to strengthen their efforts.

Under the unification of Dingzhou, all places are stable, allowing them to have enough free time to slowly grind this strong city.

The aristocratic families in the city couldn’t bear it for a long time, and surrendered surrender documents one after another, secretly linking together, and their influence grew stronger and stronger.

“And then on!”

Qi Lin was wearing armor, whistling loudly, watching the waves of soldiers, flying arrows and throwing stones, his eyes turned to Luoshui from time to time, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.
