Chapter 306 Pipa Ballad 18
This is the most serious part. When the spirit of the people is destroyed, what else can save the country?
As soon as King Ping arrived at the place, he began to issue orders one by one. He urgently transferred the granary near the south of the Yangtze River for relief, and then isolated the people infected with the plague in the city and sent special personnel to take care of them.

Those dirty and messy things were all burned. In addition, rewards were issued to various places. All birds and snakes can be captured and sent to the south of the Yangtze River, in exchange for rewards from the government.

Of course, food is also needed, and those who contribute a lot can ask for an amnesty order from the court, but the premise is that the birds must be alive, and the food must be good, not inferior.

Businessmen value profits, and as soon as this kind of reward order was issued, mobilization began in various places.

And the Duan family, who originally belonged to King Ping and now became the No. [-] royal merchant in Daliang, even opened a granary directly to the south of the Yangtze River, and sent batches of birds and snakes.

All these living animals were released into the forest, and soon, the number of locusts and rats decreased significantly. Only then did people realize that animals can still be used in this way.

All these things can be done by subordinates, only the plague, King Ping himself went into battle.

Naturally, Qing'er, who followed him closely, was also there. Fortunately, King Ping had superb medical skills and quickly developed a prescription to solve the plague.

The mental state of the people finally improved, and as a result, King Ping's popularity among the people reached an unprecedented peak.

The common people don't care about those political disputes, they only care about who can feed them and who can not abandon them at critical moments, and King Ping is the ruler who appeared at this time.

Every common person here remembers that bronze mask. Although it is ugly and terrifying, it protects them like a real god.

If God cannot save people, what is the use of God?

Therefore, after the disaster, the people in the south of the Yangtze River directly built a bronze statue for King Ping. What is novel is that there is a bronze statue with a slender figure and a light veil on the side of King Ping.

It was exactly what Qing'er looked like, and the local people directly referred to her as Empress, and referred to her as the wife of King Ping.

It is worth mentioning that during this trip to Jiangnan, they not only managed the disaster, but also punished two major Jiangnan chaebols, one surnamed Jiang and the other surnamed Wu.

The two families are related by marriage, but according to King Ping's news network, this Jiang family is actually the family of the deposed queen.

In other words, the Jiang family's daughter married into the Helian family in the capital, and the daughter she gave birth married into the royal family and became a queen.

However, with the downfall of the Helian family in the capital, the Jiang family, which was originally the number one imperial merchant in Daliang, now had to retreat to the second line.

But they couldn't get rid of their tails after all, and the flaws they exposed were caught by King Ping, so the Jiang family, which was once wealthy for a while, disappeared overnight.

In this case, King Ping also found out that many officials in the south of the Yangtze River colluded with the two officials and businessmen of Jiang and Wu to control and resell the official Yanyingtie.

So with the fall of Jiang Wu, many officials in the south of the Yangtze River also fell from their horses. These are all things that King Ping took out of his mind to do after solving the disaster.

During this period, there had been a secret agreement in the capital to call King Ping back to the capital, but in order to resolve the matter, they delayed for a few days.

In the past few days, the emperor finally failed to hold on and passed away.

There was mourning in the capital, but Zhou Furen did not announce the imperial decree of the new king's enthronement for a long time. King Rong, who had given up hope, couldn't help but become active again.

After all, King Rong was the eldest son of the emperor, and he was the one who fought hardest with the prince.

If the emperor hadn't waited until Prince Ping returned to Beijing and died this time, he really wouldn't have thought about it.

Although the position obtained in this way is disgraceful, whoever gets the history will write it, isn't it?

Who will dare to speak to him then?
In this way, King Rong brought his power into action that night, and the former concubines in the palace couldn't help but panic, and they were all controlled by King Rong's biological mother, Concubine Liu.

However, the position that King Rong thought was at his fingertips was taken away right in front of his eyes.

General Su Lie directly led the army to surround the entire imperial palace, King Rong was captured without a fight, and the entire imperial city settled down again.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, Su Lie led the army to patrol the entire imperial city and outside the city gate every day.

Waiting until King Ping returned to the capital, Su Lie made the officers and soldiers close the city gate for the first time.

He was wearing a suit of armor, standing on the top of the city, looking majestic.

When King Ping came to the foot of the city wall and called for the door, he held his sword in his arms and said, "If you want to open the door, please tell your prince to come out and speak."

Finally, King Ping with a bronze mask appeared. One of them stood on the high city wall, the other stood under the city wall, and they both read each other's mind through the eyes.

"I defended the imperial city for you, how do you plan to thank me?"

"Be crowned king and prime minister, and you will be given gold, silver, and treasures of your choice."

"Tch," Su Lie dismissed it. His bright eyes looked directly past Prince Ping and towards the figure who quietly revealed his little head from the carriage. "I don't want these. You give Qing'er to me, and I will Open the door for you."

"Don't even think about it." King Ping only spit out these four words.

And Su Lie also directly accepted his previous dissatisfaction, his whole face condensed, as if the god of war had come to the world.

"Whether you want a country or a beauty, choose yourself. I will give you a little time to burn incense. When the time comes, this general may not be the general of your Daliang."

"General Su, what are you doing?" Qing'er hurriedly got off the carriage, that crisp sound directly made Su Lie's heart soft.

"Qing'er, are you willing to come with me?" He still couldn't help raising hope, as long as she said yes, he would immediately fly down from the city wall and take her away.

"Huh? Where are you going?" Qing'er was slightly stunned, and after a while she realized, she shook her head, "I want to stay by the prince's side, and I won't go anywhere."

There was a smile on Su Lie's face, but he didn't feel that he was very happy, instead, there was endless sadness.

"But, I want you, Qing'er, I will treat you better than him, and you will only have one wife in this life. And he," Su Lie's knife pointed at the silent King Ping, "he will become a The monarch of this world, do you think he will only have you as his concubine?"

Qing'er was a little dazed, looking at Lian Ping and then at Su Lie, not knowing what to say.

"It's time for a stick of incense." Lian Ping interrupted Su Lie's confession.

"Choose." Su Lie slashed heavily at the city wall with the knife in his hand.

"Naturally she is a beauty." The lips under King Ping's bronze mask slightly curled up.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to be a lover, but are you worthy of the past emperor like this? Give the country to me?"

Su Lie started to use aggressive methods, but King Ping was not moved, "What's mine is mine, it's not for you, you can have it."
