Chapter 125 New Trouble
The fall of Qingzhou Mansion came faster than expected, and the first person to surrender was even more surprising.

Li Guozhong's father left a widow, but not his biological mother, but a stepmother.He has a half-brother Li Guoxing. In Qingzhou Governor's Mansion, Li Guoxing planned to tie Li Guozhong directly, escort him all the way to the city gate, and order the guards to open the city and surrender.

Because Li Guoxing's mother was also unfortunately infected with malaria. When his mother was facing life and death, Li Guoxing suppressed his usual fear of his brother and captured him in one fell swoop.

At the south gate of Qingzhou City, King Ning personally helped up Li Guoxing who was kneeling and begging to surrender, and accused Li Guozhong of several major crimes, and directly decapitated him in front of the soldiers of the three armies.

So far, Qingzhou Mansion has also become the territory of King Ning.

At the same time, King Ning kept his promise and ordered his military doctors and civilian doctors to treat the sick soldiers and civilians in the city immediately.

At the same time, they adopted the opinions of the military doctors and ordered the soldiers and the guards of Qingzhou Prefecture to search the city, transport the corpses of the dead to the outskirts of the city, and burn them collectively. .In addition, doctors and soldiers were ordered to publicize the knowledge of disease prevention and eliminate mosquitoes, rats and insects.

At that time, although the Qingzhou Mansion was not empty, nearly two adults in Qingzhou were killed because of the epidemic. Due to King Ning's vigorous rectification, the depressed Qingzhou Mansion gradually regained its vitality.

However, the bigger problem in Qingzhou Prefecture was still a common problem in most areas of Darui at this stage.

Due to the drought and floods, the entire summer grain in Qingzhou Prefecture was almost completely lost. The families of the rich and wealthy merchants hoarded it, but the common people could only eat chaff and swallow vegetables, and some even turned grass roots and bark into staple food.

Although it has not reached the point of changing children to eat, but if it is ignored, such a tragedy will happen in Qingzhou sooner or later.

There was very little food in the official storehouse, even if King Ning opened the official storehouse, it would be a drop in the bucket. What's more, King Ning's [-] troops also needed food and grass, and there was no surplus army food to relieve the nearly one million people in Qingzhou Prefecture who were waiting to be fed.

Therefore, after taking Qingzhou Mansion, King Ning was worried again, and he had a lot of white hair on his head.

Although King Ning has issued an order to let the wealthy households in the city open porridge shops, most of these wealthy households are obedient, and the rice porridge is so clear that people can see their shadows.

"What is the princess worrying about?" Qingzhu, who had been busy all day until it was dark, returned to the temporary apartment, and saw Princess Anle sitting in the yard with a sad face, holding her chin Looking at the sky in a daze.

"This Qingzhou mansion is just an empty shell. I don't say anything. There are so many hungry people. If I knew it, I would have been too lazy to mobilize the conquest." Princess Anle said with a frown.

"Qingzhou Mansion is the only way to go west. No matter how empty the shell is, the prince will not give up." Qingzhu shook her head with a smile. Take down Shangjing City, so that it can be justified.

Shangjing is in the central and western part of Darui. King Ning took the name of the mountains and rivers side by side of the Qing Dynasty, and his idea was to go straight to Huanglong and naturally go all the way west.Otherwise, even if he took down half of the mountains and rivers to the south, it would still be a dishonorable name after all.

"But now my father is trapped in the general affairs of this city, and my hair has turned gray a lot. Of course I am worried." Princess Anle said without looking at Qingzhu.

"Ning Wang Rende, in fact, he can directly send his troops to the west, as long as he leaves suitable people to take care of this Qingzhou mansion, isn't it always like this before?" Qingzhu looked at Princess Anle and said.

"In the past, those cities surrendered to their father by themselves. The wealthy households in the city did not dare to offend their father. Naturally, they obediently obeyed and opened warehouses to release grain. But Qingzhou Mansion is different... We won Qingzhou Mansion in order to save our troops. The broken promise has now caused those merchants and rich people to not be afraid of their father at all, and his father can't violate his promise, so it is inevitable to be in a dilemma." Princess Anle said with a bitter face.

"That's true, it's also the trouble caused by the green shirt..." Qingzhu nodded as she spoke, and then shook her head.

"I can't blame you Qingshan. If it weren't for him, we don't know how many soldiers would die in the siege battle. No matter what idea there is, there will be pros and cons. How can we blame him if there is a problem?" Princess Anle shook He shook his head and said.

"Oh? Is this the princess' idea or not?" Qingzhu looked at Princess Anle and asked.

"Don't worry, this is what the father said personally, your family's green shirt will not be affected in any way." Princess Anle glanced at the green bamboo, and added angrily: "When is this, you don't want to share my worries To solve the problem, I only think about you Qingshan, do you still have a conscience..."

Qingzhu laughed, and naturally did not care about the words of Princess Anle, just said: "Qingshan is my younger brother, I don't care about him, who can I care about? Besides, I am a doctor, you ask me to cure diseases and save lives, I have nothing to say, Naturally, I will do my best. However, if you ask me to help you turn food into food, there is nothing I can do..."

As Qingzhu said, she spread her hands, as if she was helpless.

"I don't care, you have to find a way for me, or I'll just sit here and never leave." Princess Anle said while looking at Qingzhu recklessly.

"You are relying on me again..." Qingzhu smiled wryly, looked at Princess Anle and said.

"Yeah, I'm relying on you again." Princess Anle nodded seriously, looked at Qingzhu with blinking eyes and said, "Help me find a way."

"I really can't help it. Princess, you are in a difficult situation this time." Qing Zhu said with a wry smile.

"Ah...then what should we do..." Princess Anle looked up to the sky and sighed deeply: "Why do you say these people have an incurable disease, and it can only be solved by you, so that we can ask for prices... ..."

"Aren't these people already terminally ill?" Hearing Princess Anle's words, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Qing Zhu's mind, and she looked at Princess Anle and said.

"Hey, terminally ill? What do you mean?" Princess Anle blinked, looked at Qingzhu and asked.

"What I mean is, every rich family, especially a merchant, must have many dirty things behind their backs, which cannot withstand investigation." Qingzhu looked at Princess Anle and said seriously.

"That's true, but we all said that Qiu has done nothing wrong. If we deal with these people rashly, I'm afraid that we will lose my father's reputation." Princess Anle shook her head and said.

"Therefore, Qingzhu believes that the prince should lead the army to the west immediately. As usual, it is enough to leave trustworthy officials, but because Qingzhou Prefecture is special, you can also leave some soldiers to help protect these officials." Qingzhu looked at Princess Anle said.

"Oh, please speak clearly, I can't hear you." Princess Anle shook her head, looked at Qingzhu and said.

"What I mean is that the lord can retain officials who act as the governor of Qingzhou and other positions to act as agents for the affairs of the Qingzhou mansion. But now the Qingzhou mansion is almost cleaned up, so in order to live up to the high hopes of the lord, he can act as the governor and handle the cases accumulated in the past years. It is also a reasonable thing. If there are villagers blocking the street to sue a big family in Qingzhou Prefecture for embezzling property, that would be the best thing." Qing Zhu said looking at An Le.

"Wonderful, that's called beating the grass to startle the snake, isn't it?"

Princess Anle couldn't help clapping her hands, looked at Qingzhu and said excitedly: "Father led the army to set off, so naturally he kept Qiu Wuwu's promise. It is also reasonable to leave the acting governor, and the governor wants to make meritorious service. It is understandable for Father Yu and the people of Qingzhou to deal with this old case."

"When the time comes to find out the cases related to those wealthy families, beat the side drums, and clean up two excessive thorns, most of the others will obediently submit. Of course, the result is to bring it up a lot, and put it down gently, and nothing will be left behind. Bitter reputation."

"Qing Zhu, Qing Zhu, why are you a girl? It would be great if you were a man!"

Princess An Le clapped her hands in praise, while pointing at the green bamboo and sighing.

"Isn't the princess also a daughter? If you don't fight the enemy as usual, you won't lose to a man." Qingzhu glanced at Princess Anle and smiled.

"I said something wrong." Princess Anle looked at Qingzhu with a smile and said: "I will go to find my father first, tell my father about your attention, and come back to find you later."

As Princess Anle said, she asked someone to bring her big bay red horse over, and rode the horse to the government office of Qingzhou to find her father.

Seeing Anle County's master leaving in a hurry, Qingzhu shook her head and smiled, and ordered the maid who had been hiding somewhere before to boil water, waiting for herself to wash off the fatigue of the day.

Most of King Ning's army was stationed outside the city, and the Hongzhuang Camp was the same. Almost all the soldiers, including Princess Anle, still lived in the barracks.But recently, Qingzhu temporarily lived in a family's house in the city because he wanted to treat the illnesses of the people in the city.

In fact, there is a temporarily designated military doctor's apartment in the city, which is next door to Qingzhu's family, but there are only men there, and it is inconvenient, so Qingzhu lives next door.

This family is not a big family, but there are maids and servants in the family, and they also respect Qingzhu, a female doctor.

Qingzhu had just finished taking a shower, and before she was ready for dinner, Princess Anle ran back in a hurry. When she saw Qingzhu, she pointed at her and laughed: "Xia Qingzhu, Xia Qingzhu, what should I say to you?"

"Ah? What's the matter?" Qingzhu looked at Princess Anle in puzzlement and asked.

"Guess what? When I went to look for my father, my father was full of smiles. I didn't understand it, thinking that he had guessed that I would have a good plan to send him off. Who knows that I haven't finished talking yet, my father The king then told me that Elder Brother Shizi found him earlier and told him about this similar strategy." Princess Anle said while looking at Qingzhu with a smile on her face.

"Uh... Qingshan couldn't have given this plan, right?" Qingzhu asked hesitantly.

"It's not just Qingshan, you are really brothers and sisters, you can think of the same way to solve the predicament in front of you." Princess Anle laughed.

"Aren't you the same as Shizi, both worry about King Ning." Qing Zhu laughed.

"Extremely." Princess Anle nodded, and said with a smile: "When you say that, I just remembered that my elder brother and I really have the same thoughts and worries."
