Datang: My Cells Are Too Competitive and Can Automatically Upgrade

Chai Shao, who was in a good mood, came out of the small courtyard where he was, and walked leisurely in the general's mansion with the early morning mist.

Under the long corridor, only Chai Shao's footsteps could be heard.

As he walked forward slowly, he couldn't help sighing, he couldn't even remember how long he hadn't been so focused.

"Uncle?"

At this moment, a clear voice belonging to a girl brought Chai Shao, who had already lost his mind, to his senses.

He stopped and looked up, and saw Cheng Yi and Li Lizhi standing side by side a dozen steps ahead, looking at him with a smile.

Seeing Chai Shao's happy reaction, Li Lizhi chuckled, and trotted over with her skirt in her hands.

"your Highness."

Chai Shao respectfully saluted Li Lizhi.

Li Lizhi hurriedly waved her hands and said, "Uncle, there is no need to be so polite in the General's Mansion."

Hearing this, Chai Shao first glanced at Cheng Yi, saw Cheng Yi nodded to him, and then agreed with a smile.

"I didn't expect the general and the princess to be so early."

Chai Shao greeted the two of them.

The three of them talked for a while in the corridor, and Steward Su came to report that breakfast was ready and invited them to eat.

After eating breakfast, Cheng Yi went out of the house.

Chai Shao has already told Cheng Yi everything he knows, and there is nothing he can do to help after that.

After leaving the General's Mansion, Cheng Yi went straight to the Shence Army camp.

His top priority now is to find out who is behind the kidnapping of Chai Shao and his son.

Cheng Yi instinctively believed that this matter should be the work of Li Chengdao, who had already died in the early records, but now came back to life.

Regardless of whether the other party is a human or a ghost, Cheng Yi thinks that he needs to be caught first.

Before everyone knew about it, the Shence Army quietly went around Chang'an City, and began to secretly investigate the opponent's whereabouts.

At this time, Dingzhou City, a subsidiary of Huainan Road, suffered the largest flood disaster in a century.

As the confluence of several rivers, Dingzhou has already adapted to the living environment of a small flood every three years and a big flood every five years.

So in the early days of the flood, not only the local officials, but even the local people never thought that the disaster would be so serious.

In just ten days, under the attack of flood and famine, the long-overdue epidemic finally detonated.

Under the heavy damage of successive natural disasters, nearly [-]% of the people in Dingzhou's subordinate counties were displaced. The previous prosperous scene was gone, and with starvation everywhere, Dingzhou seemed to be reduced to a purgatory on earth.

……

Xuanzheng Hall.

Li Shimin held a memorial tightly in his hand, pacing back and forth in the hall in anger.

All the eunuchs and maids serving in the palace were frightened into silence by the furious Li Shimin, and they all knelt on the ground, not even daring to vent their anger.

In the entire Xuanzheng Hall, except for Li Shimin's heavy footsteps, it was almost suffocatingly quiet.

After some time, Changsun Wuji and other courtiers hurried to Xuanzheng Hall.

Seeing the ministers, Li Shimin took a deep breath, raised his hand and handed out the memorial in his hand.

"This is the memorial sent by Hong Huo, the governor of Ningzhou. Let's take a look."

Although his face was so gloomy that it could drip water, Li Shimin's voice was calm.

Anyone who is familiar with him knows that his anger has reached the peak.

Changsun Wuji looked at the emperor in front of him calmly, then bowed his head and stepped forward to take the memorial from Li Shimin's hand.

All the ministers gathered around Changsun Wuji and looked at the contents of the memorial together with him.

"His Majesty!"

After reading the memorial, Changsun Wuji spoke solemnly.

"The four major families in Ningzhou should be beheaded!"

It turned out that in the memorial written by Hong Huo, the governor of Ningzhou, it recorded in detail that the four major families that had been intertwined with Ningzhou for hundreds of years since the flood in Ningzhou not only ignored the lives of the people, but even blatantly sent people to obstruct the government from helping the victims.

One after another, it is really unheard of!

Hong Huo forced the four major families into desperation, so he had to write a memorial to ask the court to release food for disaster relief.

"The four major families have controlled Ningzhou for hundreds of years. For the people of Ningzhou, the weight of these four families is even more important than the imperial court!"

Changsun Wuji said expressionlessly.

"If we don't take this opportunity to suppress their arrogance, I'm afraid Ningzhou will change hands after the flood!"

"Change owner?"

Suddenly, a voice came into the Xuanzheng Hall, followed by footsteps from far to near.

Everyone in the hall turned their heads and saw Cheng Yi in a round collar robe walking towards them with a smile on his lips.

"What did Situ just say?"

Cheng Yi walked into the hall and stood still, looking at Changsun Wuji without blinking.

Perhaps Cheng Yi's carefree appearance affected other people in the hall, and the suffocating atmosphere in the hall collapsed in an instant.

Even the eunuchs and maids who were kneeling on the ground felt a lot more relaxed in an instant.

"General Cheng," Changsun Wuji took a few steps forward and handed the memorial to Cheng Yi: "You will know it after reading it."

Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the memorial handed over by Changsun Wuji, and stretched out his hand to push it.

"Don't look any further, I already know."

With that said, Cheng Yi's eyes fell on Li Shimin again.

"Four big families?"

Cheng Yi sneered.

"If it doesn't make sense, why don't you give it a good beating?"

Cheng Yi smiled and looked around at the crowd.

"Hit, hit me up?"

Liu Zhenghui, who was specially called by Li Shimin today, looked at Cheng Yi in amazement.

He didn't have much dealings with Cheng Yi before, so he always thought that the other party was a gentle and refined person, but who knew that when the other party opened his mouth today, he wanted to do it!

"What? Liu Shangshu thinks something is wrong?"

Cheng Yi turned his head and looked directly at Liu Zhenghui.

Following his movements, other people in the hall also turned their attention to Liu Zhenghui.

Li Shimin frowned slightly, with obvious displeasure in his eyes.

"No no no!"

Liu Zhenghui quickly shook his head and waved his hands, fearing that he would become the target of public criticism in the Xuanzheng Palace.

"General Cheng, don't misunderstand me!"

Liu Zhenghui hurriedly said to Cheng Yi.

Hearing his words, Cheng Yi moved his menacing gaze away again.

He took a few steps forward and looked directly at Li Shimin.

"The four major families have not been in decline until now. Not only have they controlled Ningzhou, but even the surrounding states have been deeply affected. What does your Majesty think is the reason why they can always stand firm no matter how the imperial power changes?"

Cheng Yi asked suddenly.

Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said, "People's hearts?"

Chapter 95 Going to Ningzhou for Disaster Relief

Cheng Yi shook his head and continued: "It's not the people's hearts, but the connivance of those in power."

As soon as these words came out, the hall fell into a new round of silence.

The four big families are nothing more than a group of old hermaphrodites who stepped on the bottom line of the imperial court and danced wildly.

Just like the three big families in the Dream of Red Mansions, no matter how loud they are, in the end, the emperor was angry and the tree fell down and the monkeys scattered?

"You, how are you preparing?"

Li Shimin asked in a deep voice.

The corner of Cheng Yi's mouth twitched: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the Shence Army to Ningzhou for disaster relief!"

Disaster relief?

Everyone could hear Cheng Yi's implication, he was not going to provide disaster relief, he was clearly going to beat dogs!

"Prelude!"

Li Shimin slammed two words loudly, and fiercely let out the foul breath lingering in his chest.

"Your Majesty will allow you to act cheaply at that time?"

Cheng Yi asked again.

Li Shimin nodded: "Of course it is accurate!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Cheng Yi bowed his hands to Li Shimin.

Immediately, he looked at Hubu Shangshu who had been terrified by him just now.

"Liu Shangshu, this general is going to Ningzhou for disaster relief, so he can't be empty-handed, right?"

Liu Zhenghui was dumbfounded. He looked at Cheng Yi, then at Li Shimin, and finally spoke up helplessly.

"Your Majesty, since this year there have been natural disasters all over the country, the household department and the household department have really not much money left!"
