"what?"

When Hu Ling heard Cheng Hao say this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then looked around, only then did he understand what Cheng Hao meant.

Indeed, neither Cheng Hao nor Liu Xiangjiu can always protect him. As long as he leaves the guest and comes back tomorrow, I am afraid that he will be remembered, not to mention that the pancake cannot be kept, even his life will be lost!

"Eat it, you just eat it yourself." Cheng Hao patted Hu Ling on the shoulder, he really admired this filial young man.

Not Cheng Hao also understands the truth of guilt.

Seeing that Hu Ling was still hesitating, Cheng Hao lowered his voice and said, "I will secretly give you a few more when you leave tomorrow. You can take it home to show your parents."

Hu Ling smiled again, opened his mouth and gnawed on the cake.

It can be seen that this boy has a good tutor. Although he is very hungry and embarrassed, he still squeezes his mouth when eating, and he did not make a chewing sound.

This made Cheng Hao look slightly surprised. Seeing the young man biting the biscuits with a happy smile on his face, Cheng Hao handed him the kettle beside him and said: "Drink some water."

Seeing Hu Ling finished eating, Cheng Hao said, "Hu Ling, I want to ask you something."

"Brother Chu, you say!" Hu Ling immediately answered, and it really made people's mouth soft and took their hands short.

Cheng Hao said, "I don't think you look like an ordinary child when you eat. What did your family do before?"

Hu Ling was taken aback for a while, and then sighed: "Brother Chu, I don't hide it from you. My family used to be an official of the Xuanguguan. At that time, the ancestor of the Xuanguguan was quite a shackle.

"Oh, it's pretty frustrating.

Cheng Hao nodded slightly.

It has been a while since he came into this life. Naturally, he is also very clear about the official position of the Dragon Empire. This is quite shabby or cannot be called an official. In fact, it should be regarded as a kind of official.

Mainly responsible for coordinating rural affairs, the power in his hands is not small at the local level.

"What happened later? How did you fall to this point?" Cheng Hao asked his doubts.

Hu Ling sighed, "Isn't it a disaster from the gods!"

As soon as he uttered the word "War disaster", the surrounding merchants shuddered, even Liu Xiangjiu, the shopkeeper, changed his complexion and yelled at the counter: "Hu Ling! Take care of your mouth, don't talk nonsense. Be careful of the evil coming out of your mouth!"

When Hu Ling heard Liu Xiangjiu's scolding, he didn't dare to say anything, but Cheng Hao glanced at the shopkeeper. Liu Xiangjiu was not afraid, and looked at him.

Suddenly, he saw Cheng Hao flipping his wrist, and something flew out of his hand and went straight to Liu Xiangjiu.

Liu Xiangjiu was shocked and yelled in his heart: "It's over! I shouldn't confront him face to face, it will be dead!"

It's just that he yelled in his heart, but there was no pain in his body. He opened his eyes and took a look, and then reached out and fumbled a few times on his body. Didn't he see any injuries?

Then I took a closer look at his counter, and he didn't know when there was a small piece of silver! It's full of weight and fineness, obviously this is what Cheng Hao threw at him just now!

There is no one who is a businessman who doesn't love money. Liu Xiangjiu's expression changed when he saw Yinzi, he quickly caged Yinzi with his sleeves, and then he stopped talking.

The meaning is very clear. Since the money is collected, he will naturally not talk too much.

Cheng Hao's satisfaction

Nodded, greeted Hu Ling to sit in the corner of the wall, and then whispered: "Let's talk in a low voice, don't let them listen and there will be no trouble."

Hu Ling nodded. He was a young man with a simple temperament. He just knew Cheng Hao was kind to him, so he wanted to dig his heart out, and he was very simple.

Cheng Hao said, "Tell me about the military disaster."

Hu Ling hesitated for a while, still gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Chu, I will tell you, but you should never say that I am talking when you go out."

Seeing Cheng Hao smiled and nodded, he said, "Actually, it's the Dudu Mansion of Si Li and the Secretary of Comfort!"

"Please tell me in detail." Cheng Hao also became interested, leaning against the wall to listen to Hu Ling's account.

It turned out that this Sili Province was originally very peaceful. After all, it was guarding Youyunjing. Even if the rest of the Dragon Empire was in chaos, Sili Province was still stable and controlled by Youyunjing.

It’s just bad because the last emperor made a faint move. Although Sili Province is still under the royal control, his Majesty is still afraid that one day Sili Province will get out of control, so he established a yamen named Anfusi, the purpose is to Separate powers from Sili Dudufu.

In fact, the emperor’s worries were not completely unreasonable. The military and political power of the Si Li governor's office was grasped, and the power was really too great.

But the question is, now that the empire is collapsed and the hearts of the people are in turmoil, how can the emperor be able to control and appease Si?

So in the end, not only failed to stabilize Sili Province, but instead turned into a confrontation between the Fusi and the Dudufu, and even attacked each other, which caused a mess of the originally prosperous Sili Province. No one can swallow anyone with the Dudufu, and it turned out to be

deadlock.

Cheng Hao shook his head and sighed: "Then the refugees outside came to this profound gate because of this?"

"Not at all." Hu Ling shook his head: "I saw a lot of refugees along the way, many of them speak foreign accents. Obviously they were not originally from our Sili Province, but they were also victims who fled from other places. Come on."

Cheng Hao was speechless.

Yes, although this natural disaster is terrifying, it is far inferior to man-made disasters, especially military disasters.

Soldiers who are out of control are definitely a nightmare for the common people, and as long as there is a war, there are bound to be broken soldiers. Don't look at their powerlessness to kill the enemy. They pick up the common people but pinch.

As long as we catch up with the disaster, there is only one way to escape, otherwise we will wait for the entire village to die.

Cheng Hao heard that the boss didn't feel like it, but he couldn't help it. He was still too weak now, and he had long lost the power that commanded the world.

Besides, even if he sneaked into the comfort department or the governor's mansion with his own way of hiding, and quietly killed one party, this terrible military disaster would still not end.

Youyunjing can’t look at it. Maybe Yao Guangyu, the bright and benevolent Qili emperor in Youyunjing, just wants to watch the two major factions in Sili province kill each other, otherwise they are quiet. Yunjing can hardly be safe.

But this Si Li governor... seems to be Qiu Shuisheng’s grandfather Qiu Zhankui. He has heard Qiu Shuisheng mention this once, and wants the lake to have a look?

Forget it.

Cheng Hao finally shook his head, denying this idea.

After a pause, Cheng Hao asked again, "Then which side does this Xuanguguan belong to?
