Chapter 219 A clever woman cannot make a meal without rice.
"Don't worry, I'm very afraid of the Demon Sect. By the way, what's the name of the high-grade Demon Sect master who destroyed the mountain?"
Zhou Chunfeng hesitated for a moment and said: "The elder of Hua Mo Mountain, the new third-grade minister of the Ministry of Punishment , Fu Jianqi, the junior brother of the leader of Hua Mo Shan Zhang."
"I seem to have heard of this name somewhere." Li Qingxian frowned and thought.
"The disaster in Lucheng is related to him. When Depu turned into a dead demon land, he appeared there. He is unpredictable with magic skills. Don't provoke such a person." Zhou Chunfeng said.
"No wonder, it turns out that Liu Shida mentioned this person. Uncle Zhou, don't worry, I am afraid of death and will not provoke anyone I can't afford to offend." Li Qingxian said with a smile.
"The notes you put on the All Saints' Classics in the closet are very good." Zhou Chunfeng looked deeply at Li Qingxian.
"Every word is from the heart, every sentence is from the liver and gallbladder." Li Qingxian said calmly.
"How do you feel about this incident?" Zhou Chunfeng asked.
When Li Qingxian heard that he was taking the exam with a familiar elder, he carefully recalled what happened, sighed for a long time, and said: "Life is like chess, don't be greedy for victory." "This is what Zhao Shoufu said." "Huh? Zhao
Yishan
also Did you say that?"
Zhou Chunfeng nodded and asked: "What else?"
"At first, the cancer will only hurt the distant island states, and later it may only hurt the distant state capitals, and later it may hurt the vicinity of the divine capital. Depu Town, now, has hurt many people around me. When I can see, the cancer may touch the skin and then penetrate into the bones." Li Qingxian said.
"You said human lives are worth more than military exploits?" Zhou Chunfeng asked.
"Of course. We won't have any military exploits this time, but we can fight for them next time, but if the people are gone, they will be gone forever. The death of one person may not seem important, but the death of a group of people will also lead to the death of their possible future generations. Among their descendants, there may be people who can achieve greater military exploits and save more human races, but because of the military exploits of a few people, they will never appear in this world."
"Yes, you can have many things as long as you take your time. It's just a matter of more or less. But if people are gone, they are really gone..." Zhou Chunfeng looked out the window.
The sky is blue, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.
"What if only one of the cancer and his teammates can stay?" Zhou Chunfeng asked.
Li Qingxian shrugged and said: "I don't know, and I can't answer it. However, maybe people like you and Zhao Yishan can answer it. Even if your generation can't solve it, as long as generations of people survive, , it will definitely be solved. The premise is that you can survive."
Zhou Chunfeng sighed, and after a long time, he said: "I will rest for a few days, and don't show your wealth these days. But... you should be busy first." "
I understand, Zhou Goodbye, uncle."
Li Qingxian stood up, picked up the pastries on the table, and then winked at Zhou Hen.
Li Qingxian walked out of Chunfeng Residence and sat in a pavilion not far away.
After a while, Zhou Hen came over.
"Little Uncle Zhou, are you in trouble?"
"No."
"Then why are you here so late?" "I was wondering what you meant by the wink you gave me." Zhou Hen said expressionlessly.
Li Qingxian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "Uncle Zhou hesitated just now, is there something wrong?"
Zhou Hen frowned and said: "Let me think about it, first of all, the victims of the patrol department are a big deal, and so are the families and the placement of the bodies in the future. Question. Then when we were not in the capital of the gods, Mr. Zhou became angry because you were killed. He accused the Ministry of Punishment of mismanagement in front of you in the Jinluan Palace. He was so angry that the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment almost took action. And..." Zhou Hen glanced around
, The secret message said: "My lord, I think it is not a good thing for the emperor to send the inner factory to serve as supervisory troops everywhere. Once the inner factory supervisory troops are spread across all ministries, how will the officials do things in the future? The eunuch said that they do not engage in politics but only supervise, and the emperor said that it is He is always wise, but as long as he is human, problems will arise."
Li Qingxian nodded lightly.
Zhou Hen thought for a while and then said: "By the way, the patrol department is short of money."
"What's going on?" Li Qingxian asked.
"The expansion of the Patrol Division requires four or five times the troops, horses, food, weapons, etc. than the original Shendu Division. Part of it is allocated from above. But the problem is that even if the emperor issues the imperial edict, various departments will shirk and delay. You should understand this. ." Zhou Hen said.
"We all know this. It's better for the county magistrate to take charge now." Li Qingxian said.
"They can only allocate funds in batches, especially the funds from the Ministry of Accounts. It's not that they don't want to give it, but the Ministry of Accounts is really short of money recently. There is no other way, Mr. Zhou had to borrow it from the Night Guard Finance Department. The head guard never offends anyone, so he agreed. But Wei Yong, the Finance Secretary, promised and sent 500 taels of silver yesterday. I almost beat him up when I heard about it. What can I do with this little money?"
Li Qingxian thought of Mrs. Wei's bedroom night singing that night and said: "We must have offended Wei Yong very much. Can't we, the patrol department, ask for money from the inner factory? When we can't work hard, we won't give you any money." Zhou Hen shook his head and said: "The inner factory belongs to the inner court, and all expenditures
are It is allocated by the inner treasury. Those eunuchs in the inner court have their eyes high. Why are they so polite when they see you? You can get money from the inner court. If the inner court's money is used to support foreign officials, the emperor will be willing to do so, but the ministers will object. It's impossible."
"I think there's something going on here." Li Qingxian frowned.
Zhou Hen glanced at Li Qingxian in surprise and said, "You are pretty smart. I didn't notice it at the time, but Mr. Zhou said that some officials in the imperial court used this method to fight against the expansion of the inner factory and the patrol department. This is also One of the reasons why Wei Yong dared to deal with it."
Li Qingxian nodded and said: "This makes sense. It seems that the establishment of the Patrol Department with the inner factory's monopoly of power still triggered a backlash."
Zhou Hen sighed: "The Patrol Department originally The money was used to expand the army, which was not much in the first place. Now that so many people have died, the pension has become a big gap. Our night guard’s pension is already large. It used to be paid by the finance department, and it rarely died at one time. There is so much, how can we afford it now that we have to pay for it ourselves.
" "Can't we just use the money I got... Uh, no." Li Qingxian quickly realized the problem mid-sentence.
"Why, you still want to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver on Ye Wei to win people's hearts?" Zhou Hen said.
Li Qingxian shook his head. The number of night guards who died in the previous battle in Guicun was very small, so it was normal for him to give some money. But this time the scale is so large that it cannot be handled with personal money. Every money must be clean, otherwise it will be an obvious handle.
Zhou Hen said: "Master Zhou said that there is no problem in delaying the pension, but the problem is that too many people died this time. Once the Demon Sect's Punishment Department takes revenge, sends people to provoke, start a riot, and scare Shengshou, what do you think the consequences will be?"
When Li Qingxian heard this, he let out a long sigh and said, "This officialdom is really full of holes." "
Who knows how many secrets are hidden here that even Mr. Zhou can't see clearly? There are only a few days left before the Holy Master's birthday. , do you think he can sleep?" Zhou Hen said.
"There's really no way to transfer my money to the Patrol Department? Can't we borrow a temporary loan?" Li Qingxian asked.
Zhou Hen shook his head and said: "How many pairs of eyes are staring at this place now. At this time, nothing can go wrong. Mr. Zhou won't let you show your wealth because he is afraid that you will act recklessly." (End of Chapter
