Chapter 998 Liangzhou, a sign of great change

In Mengjiazhuang, the secret room that is rarely known, four walls are hung with bookcases, bookcases, and bookshelves made by skilled craftsmen.

There are thousands of volumes, all of which are summarized after a brief refinement.

In fact, it is somewhat similar to modern big data, but it is far less detailed and targeted than big data.

Even so, there is an incredible value here, and information is wealth, not empty talk.

Meng Zhao looked at the paper in his hand, a hint of surprise and confusion flashed in his eyes, and murmured,

"How could it be Liangzhou? Lenan County, Pyongyang County, what is there?"

What he had in his hands was the news sent back by a spy who successfully invaded Liangzhou, which was related to the people of the Li family surnamed Jiu.

In front of him, Ye Mao was dressed in black, covered in a mask, and stood respectfully in place with his head down, silent.

The nine-name Li Ya'er and his group had several interactions with Meng Zhao. Meng Zhao had the intention of using the connection and was cautious and cautious. Therefore, after experiencing the Zhou family at night, he rarely contacted Li Ya'er and the others.

At that time, Li Ya'er encouraged him to explore clues for the Four Symbols Dark Bow. After all, it was a heavenly-level divine weapon, with unparalleled power and terrifying.

I went there, and I did get a lot of money, but the final danger was far beyond the estimate.

Meng Zhao suddenly woke up, and he was unknowingly used by the Li family.

Although the main reason is greed, the introduction was initiated by the members of the Li family, so Meng Zhao was cautious about the Li family. After knowing the Zhou family's secret, he did not share it with the members of the Li family as soon as possible. Instead, he planned a series of actions himself, which eventually led to the death of the Zhou family.

The ancestor of the Zhou family, Zhou Wangqiao, was also missing. I don’t know if he was killed by the leader of the Pudu Sect, or escaped and hid his name.

Originally, Meng Zhao had been sending people to secretly observe the whereabouts of the Li family, but he did not expect that after the night of the Yanping County Prince's night banquet, the people of the Li family disappeared quietly without a trace, and even the spys he had been surveillance under him did not notice anything.

Meng Zhao thinks the reason is very simple.

Beitang Ang and Beitang He and his son proposed the idea of ​​forming a government army during that night banquet.

In this highly autonomous city, the royal family began to show their fangs and strength and began to become aggressive.

It is reasonable to stay away from here out of caution and safety precautions.

However, what Meng Zhao did not expect was that the Li family did not return to Xuzhou, but went upstream, walked out of Lingwu City, and headed towards Liangzhou.

The snow is heavy and the climate is harsh. This is not just Lingwu City, but almost half of the north. Under such a bitter and cold situation, what place can attract the people of the Li family to take the risk?

After thinking for a while, Meng Zhao walked to a bookcase and took out thick files from it one after another. It was all the land of Liangzhou, and the information collected from the past three months.

From the dynamics of the prefectures to the strange stories of the countryside, they all come into contact with them. They are not perfect and in detail, but they are enough to give people a very deep and sober understanding of Liangzhou.

Ye Maoer looked at Meng Zhao spreading the thick scroll, looking at ten lines at a glance. In a very short time, he extracted the information elements inside and picked up the pen to record something on a blank piece of paper. His face went from the beginning to the gradual solemnity, and then to the lingering murderous aura. He couldn't help but tremble, silently shifted his eyes away, keeping his mind tightly, and not daring to think about it anymore.

I don’t know if it is because of the stronger strength, but Meng Zhao’s power is becoming more and more domineering.

It would be fine if you deliberately restrain yourself on weekdays. Once your heart touches something, your breath spreads, and it is like a real dragon reviving. The magnetic field that transcends the core and essence of human life can suppress a innate master to become mentally ill.

After a long time, Meng Zhao put down the pen in his hand and sighed.

"The people's livelihood is so difficult, so it's a problem!"

While talking, the paper he just wrote was torn to pieces by him with energy, and he couldn't tell what he had written.

When Ye Maoer saw that Meng Zhao's words had a deep meaning, he also believed that he was close to the two young masters, so he asked carefully.

"Young Master, what happened?

Liangzhou is indeed not very good now. I heard that there is a shortage of food, and even cattle and sheep have frozen to death. There are many victims everywhere, and I haven’t encountered it in the past ten years.”

To be precise, it should be twelve years, because in the year when Beitang ascended the throne, natural disasters came one after another on the land of China. The winter was severe and the snow was like a quilt, and everything was frozen and killed.

In summer, there are either heavy rains and floods or droughts, so thirty-six noble sons entered Dacien Temple to recite scriptures and pray for blessings, and eliminate the disasters.

After more than ten years of stability, the sudden attack of this disaster. Many people suffered greatly when they lack planning and the idea of ​​being prepared for danger in times of peace, especially those in Guizhou.

What Ye Maoer said just now was still obscure. With hunger and coldness, and various diseases invaded, the prefecture could not save many people.

A large number of disaster victims have formed, such as changing children to eat, and dividing bones to cook, which are tragic behaviors that ignore human ethics are common.

People who are crazy about hunger can do everything.

In addition, the rebellion broke out in the south, which had always been a big grain-storage household, which made the disasters caused by this heavy snow worse and worsened the formation of this tragic phenomenon.

After all, in addition to natural disasters, there are also geographical factors.

Liangzhou is a great state opened up by the peerless Liang King. Although it has been uninterrupted and managed by all dynasties, it still has its huge limitations.

First, there are many grasslands and hills in the territory, which are seriously insufficient for farming, but they are conducive to grazing and raising livestock.

This leads to food shortages in the country. The large food shortages are basically allocated by the imperial court and maintained by resale by other prefectures. This makes Liangzhou unable to escape from the control of the imperial court and cannot stockpile a large amount of food.

This will lead to the fact that such rare disasters occur and inconvenient information transmission will be greatly affected and the people will suffer.

Secondly, Liangzhou itself belongs to a border prefecture, far from the Central Plains and very far from the political center. The power of the imperial court and the aristocratic families in the territory are not very strong. Instead, there are many sects and gangs, and there are momentum to turn the guest on the ground.

Even the prefecture cannot achieve perfect command and dispatch. Instead, it is often disobeyed by people below.

Now that disaster is coming, almost all government offices in various places are willing to rescue disasters, but unfortunately they do not have the ability.

Those capable sects, clans, and gangs were happily using this snow disaster to occupy grasslands and fields, buy slaves and servants, and strengthen their own strength.

To put it bluntly, it was a group of people-eating wolves who stepped on them again when the people were at their worst.

This has led to the situation becoming more and more serious, and there are signs of a major change.
