Xu Yuan, who is a fifth-rank soul condensing state, can't resist the severe cold here, let alone ordinary people.

At the beginning, Xu Yuan and his party traveled north along the official road, and the area around the official road was almost all the most developed land.

But even so, many people still died.

What Blizzard dismounts from natural disasters and rebellious soldiers represents is very simple, but also very cruel.

Starving for thousands of miles, countless frozen bones, changing children to eat.

Since the imperial court chose to attack the sect in the northern border, all the wars or production machines of the royal family and the Prime Minister's Mansion will revolve around this point.

Although the imperial court was the first to have access to the Martial Arts Hall, which liberates extraordinary productivity, its resources are not endless.

A large amount of resources invested, a large number of cultivators dispatched, these things are consuming the wealth accumulated by the imperial court.

The three continents in the north are tens of thousands of miles long, and there are hundreds of millions of victims, which will inevitably consume a lot of materials and military power in the imperial treasury.

There is no choice in this world that can satisfy both, the two in Di'an City can only choose one of the two.

Relief for disasters, or wipe out the northern sects.

But now the situation is obvious, those two chose the latter.

Because this is the only chance.

Looking at the dead stone house that was half collapsed by the snowstorm, Li Qingyan asked Tian Yan back, with a very soft voice:

"The blizzard and natural disasters here, if the local government hadn't opened warehouses to release grain to equalize the price of grain, and if the local defenders hadn't gone out to chop firewood, even that county might be in hell now."

Tian Yan shook his head, but said in a low voice:

"Your Highness, you haven't been to the northern counties for a while, right?"

"." Li Qingyan sighed softly, and did not speak again.

The reserves of local counties and counties are exhausted, and the blizzard disaster has lasted for more than half a year. Even if the government releases food, it is estimated that it has already been emptied.

She didn't want to debate such a naive topic with the other party, and it was impossible for her to persuade the other party because of the different positions.

The court is indeed for disaster relief, but what about the northern sect?

The sects all talk about co-governance, not taking responsibility for it, but accepting its benefits?

in silence,

"Survival of the fittest, streamlining those who can survive natural disasters"

Bai Muxi interjected abruptly, with a slightly weird voice: "Those dead people are valuable. It can not only save resources, but also provide more resources to more suitable people. This shouldn't be a bad thing, right?"

"." Tian Yan looked back at the purple silk woman with a well-behaved expression but terrifying words.

Bai Muxi blinked her eyes, taking things for granted.

Tian Yan reacted quickly, looking at Xu Yuan:

"Xu Yuan, where did you rescue this maid from?"

Xu Yuan stood in the snow, quietly looking at the dead stone house in front of him, and said softly:

"In a small place, their information is blocked, the environment is harsh and resources are limited, useless people will be executed directly."

while talking,

He turned his eyes and asked back:

"By the way, Tianyan, have you come into contact with the things in your Jiantian Pavilion?"

"What is it?" Tianyan murmured.

"Such as warehousing, such as the Chamber of Commerce, such as the annual balance book."

".never."

"Ten fingers don't touch the spring water." Xu Yuan smiled sideways.

"." Tian Yan.

Xu Yuan exhaled quietly, and said in a low voice:

"However, since you haven't been in contact with it, you probably don't know how rich a thousand-year-old sect's family will be."

talking,

He looked at the stone house in the mountain village that was dilapidated due to the snowstorm:

"Actually, the whole matter is not incomprehensible. Slaughtering the northern sects, robbing their warehouses, and distributing food along the way for disaster relief, although it will be a little troublesome and slow, but the two should not conflict.

"So disaster relief is definitely inevitable, but under the current conditions, the priority must be to wipe out the sect."

After all, he didn't explain too much, and walked straight into the stone house.

Although Li Yaoxuan and his father wanted to wipe out the northern sect, they definitely didn't want a rotten land without people.

The purpose of annihilating the barbarians and the local sects of the three continents in the north is to have a stable rear, a rear that can continue to supply blood to the court.

Everything is smashed, there is no population, no infrastructure, and it will become a burden on the court.

The words fell silent, and the three women were speechless.

Bai Muxi glanced at the two daughters without any trace, and silently followed the young master into the stone house.

Surrounded by stone fences, snow fell heavily in the hospital, but Tian Yan and Li Qingyan still stood where they were.

half an hour,

Tian Yan said quietly:

"The catastrophe of the world is approaching, so internal friction may not be a good thing."

Li Qingyan looked up at the sky:

"The catastrophe in the world? Your Excellency, do you believe what you say?"

Tian Yan glanced at her and spit out a sentence:

"Xia Chong is indescribable. The decline of my Jiantian Pavilion was because I spared no effort to fight against the catastrophe."

"It may have been true back then."

Li Qingyan nodded, and did not deny what happened ten thousand years ago.

Everyone knows the strength of Jiantian Pavilion ten thousand years ago, and the realm they divided back then is still in use today, which shows how prosperous it was at that time.

But after a moment's pause, Li Qingyan asked playfully:

"This was the reason for this in the past, but is your original intention of Jiantian Pavilion still preserved?"

Tian Yan stood in the air, Liu Mei frowned, and said softly:

"The great catastrophe is approaching, and I, Jiantian Pavilion, will naturally contribute, but the premise of all this is that it must survive first."

"I thought you would say some fake words."

Li Qingyan's voice was slightly surprised, and he chuckled lightly: "It's so direct, I like your temperament a little bit."

Tian Yanmei narrowed her eyes:

"It's disgusting when you say that."

"Hide your jealousy, or you will cause trouble to others."

Li Qingyan bent his eyes and smiled, raised his palm to catch a fallen leaf, and suddenly asked, "Are you still going to Lingshui Palace?"

Tian Yan glanced at her:

"Yes, I remember I told you about this in Beifeng."

Li Qingyan looked at the smell of gunpowder in her eyes, and was not angry, but said softly:

"I suggest you change your itinerary, and don't go to Lingshui Palace."

Tianyan Jintong stared at her for a few breaths, and said in a low voice:

"Why?"

Li Qingyan's plain clothes fluttered in the wind and snow, standing upright even more, and said casually:

"It will be very dangerous there, and you may die if you go there."

Lingshui Palace, the first case in the northern border.

According to the information obtained by contacting Di'an City in Beifeng, the troops around Lingshui Palace will be assembled within ten days.

The imperial court paid great attention to this first case in the northern border.

Beifeng two towns, and even the town of the Blackscale Army commanded by the general named Yuan Hao.

A total of three towns, nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses.

In addition, there are also some barbarian wolf cavalry and infantry fighters who surrendered to the imperial court in order to survive.

The barbarians are defeated like mountains, and life will find its own way out.

No one in intelligent beings wants to die. As long as they are given a chance, those scattered barbarian tribes will find reasons to surrender.

for example,

Their king deserted and abandoned them.

They themselves went south for enough food and enough living space.

Now that the faith has collapsed, and food and shelter are provided, under the propaganda of the high-level tribe, the Dayan court has recruited a group of barbarian soldiers.

And under the blizzard of natural disasters, there is no better army than the barbarians.

Under such a configuration, it is impossible for Lingshui Palace to survive without the elite army.

In the first battle, the head of the northern sect was beheaded as a deterrent.

Tian Yan was silent for a while, and then made a rough guess in his heart. Looking at the smile on the face of the woman opposite, he felt a little uncomfortable:

"Why did you tell me this?"

Looking at each other for a few breaths, Li Qingyan's phoenix eyes flashed a little coldness:

"Actually, I want you to die there. Isn't it very pleasant for the saint of Jiantian Pavilion to die in the chaos?"

"."

After the words fell, in the bleak cold wind, the atmosphere suddenly froze.

But the tense atmosphere only lasted for a moment.

Li Qingyan suddenly gave a "puchi" smile, smiling like a flower in the wind and snow:

"But, I thought about it for a while. If you die there, it would be too boring. It might be more interesting if you don't let you live."

There was a little ripple in Tianyan's heart.

She felt that the princess in plain clothes like snow in front of her looked like a lunatic.

"interesting?"

"I like to see your angry look."

"." The corners of Tian Yan's brows twitched slightly, feeling inexplicably angry in his heart.

Exhaling calmly, she stared at her:

"Your bad taste is really vulgar."

Li Qingyan did not deny:

"Maybe, so you better not go."

"His Royal Highness, I am not your subordinate, let alone your imperial family's eagle dog."

Tianyan's golden pupils glowed with a burst of divine light, and the sash of the palace skirt fluttered: "Even if I go, I still have the ability to save my life."

"I'm not thinking about you."

Li Qingyan sensed a slight change in the source of energy around him, his smile remained unchanged, his rustling voice became lower, and he paused every word:

"Although Changtian has no feelings for you now, he may think of the so-called illusion in the future. If you die in Lingshui Palace this time, even if I didn't kill you, you will become a thorn between me and him. .”

The cold wind gnawed at the bones, and his eyes were like ice.

Tian Yan bit his lip:

"Your arrogance is disgusting."

Li Qingyan pursed his lips and bent his eyes, folded his hands on his chest, and tapped his chin lightly with his slender index finger:

"I really like your simple nature. The more people lack something, the more they like it. So have you considered it?"

Tian Yan snorted coldly:

"My safety does not bother me."

"Your going to Lingshui Palace is nothing more than sending a signal, there is no need to oppose it just to sing against this palace."

Li Qingyan looked extremely comfortable facing Tianyan, as if he could see her heart clearly, with a pair of magnificent red pupils smiling: "On the contrary, compared to going to Lingshui Palace, I think you should stay with Changtian around."

"." Tian Yan suddenly fell silent, looking at her with strange eyes.

"Don't look at me like that." Li Qingyan narrowed his smiling eyes slightly: "That guy's cultivation is so weak and his status is so high, it's inevitable that some young people will think badly about him. If you stay in the northern army, you will be useless."

talking,

She looked into her eyes and paused every word: "Si Ming's cultivation base is too weak, but I have observed your attitude in the past few days, and my feelings for Chang Tian should not seem to be fake, and his cultivation base is high. Escort him back. Jing couldn't be more suitable."

Tian Yan was taken aback when he heard the words, frowned, and his voice hesitated:

"You let me and him go back to Beijing alone?"

"Siming is not a human being?"

Li Qingyan knew that the other party had agreed after hearing the words, and said with a smile: "Tianyan, on the way back, don't be bullied by her."

"." Tian Yan clenched his fists tightly.

Taking a deep breath and exhaling it, after calming down, the voice was crisp and clear: "You are open-minded."

"Open-minded? Maybe."

Li Qingyan's red pupils were as bright as rubies in the wind and snow, with a smile on his lips:

"The love and taste of the world make people unconsciously want to be with them, but Tianyan, there are more important things in this world waiting for me to do."

"."

Tian Yan's eyes widened slightly, he pursed his lips, opened his eyes to look elsewhere, and asked:

"Li Qingyan, with Chang Tian's identity and his demonstrated talent, no one should take the risk to take action against him."

"The Battle of Beifeng, his talent was discovered."

Li Qingyan smiled slightly, a coldness flashed in his eyes:

"Because of this, Bengong and he have been assassinated once before. It may be dangerous to return to Beijing this trip, so I need you to protect him."

"Who?" Tian Yan frowned.

Li Qingyan did not answer directly:

"At that time, you can ask Chang Tian yourself."

Tian Yan stopped talking when he heard the words, his bare feet in the air moved slightly, and instead walked towards the stone house.

When she walked to the door, her crisp voice came quietly:

"I don't hate you so much now."

"."

Li Qingyan smiled when he heard the words, and said with a teasing smile:

"Just because I allowed you to be alone with Chang Tian? You little girl is really coaxable."

"."

Tian Yan's tender body trembled, and he gritted his teeth, and Yuan Qi overflowed in an instant.

With his slender legs, Li Qingyan brushed past Tian Yan who was stagnant in the air, and leaned close to her ear, exhaling like blue, with a very soft voice:

"Look, I'm angry again.

"On the way back to Beijing, Ben Gong felt that Tianyan, you might be bullied to death by that Si Ming~"

After finishing speaking, she took advantage of Tianyan's panic and rubbed her head, then walked directly into the stone house, leaving Tianyan's petite body standing outside the house trembling with anger.

And the moment he entered the stone house, Li Qingyan's good mood disappeared instantly.

The fire lamp dispelled the cold in the stone house, and a bed of black jade taken from the Sumeru Ring was placed in the center.

Xu Yuan lay prone on the bed with his cheeks buried on the soft black jade pillow, and Bai Muxi, who was dressed in purple gauze and satin, sat on the heels of his legs, her two jade hands gently pressing on his back.

The posture is a bit ambiguous.

Looking at the man and woman on the jade bed, Li Qingyan smiled:

"Changtian, if you're really uncomfortable, why don't you let Ben Gong press it for you?"

Xu Yuan glanced back at her, but said nothing.

It doesn't matter, Xiaobai will make a move.

Seeing this, Bai Muxi lowered her eyes, got off the man, and said obediently:

"Your Highness, yes."

"Shut up."

Li Qingyan's indifferent eyes swept over:

"How is the Dian Yuan Liu Xing Jue practice? Are you thinking about doing these things?"

While talking, she took out a whip from the Sumeru ring: "It happens that I haven't tested your progress for a long time in the past few days."

Bai Muxi shrank her neck and immediately fell silent.

It's bad, Xiaobai can't play with this bad woman.

Xu Yuan sat up from the jade bed with a calm expression, put his elbows on his knees, looked at her at the door and said with a smile:

"Have you finished whispering with Tianyan? What are you whispering to avoid me?"

Li Qingyan's plain clothes fluttered, put away his whip and walked to the bed, squinting his eyes:

"After arriving at Guangyang Mansion, Tianyan will send you back to the capital. Before you leave, let me serve you for Changtian~"

"." Xu Yuan.
