Lu Xiangsheng's confidence became more strong. After saying goodbye to the emperor, accompanied by Wei Mulan, he returned to the team with a proud pride, waved his hand and headed towards Daming Mansion. He took the rest of his people to return to Daming Mansion, and then went to Denglai to take office.

The rest of the royal army followed, but Hu Guang had no time to say goodbye and immediately returned to Beijing. On New Year's Eve, there was still a lot of things to do. Even on the road, he was not idle.

Liu Xingzuo, the commander of the Jinyiwei, was beside him, and was behind by horse head, and reported to him: "Your Majesty, after some of the food in the capital is removed, it will only last for one month."

The grain in the capital was managed by the factory and the Ministry of Revenue, so Liu Xingzuo also knew about the grain situation. After the two-day anti-gang operation in the capital was over, the emperor had issued an order to send the prisoners and the squeezed food to Yongping and handed it over to Sun Chengzong.

"Yeah!" Hu Guang knew about this, nodded and turned to look at Liu Xingzuo. He knew that Liu Xingzuo must have something to say.

Sure enough, Liu Xingzuo heard the remarks: "I just received a report that the food collection situation in the provinces near the capital is not optimistic..."

"What?" Hu Guang's face suddenly became serious when he heard this, and even held the horse under his crotch and asked louder.

Seeing this, the guards in front and behind stopped immediately, wondering what was wrong with the emperor?

Liu Xingzuo naturally knew what serious consequences would happen if the food supply was not available. Therefore, after receiving the news, he couldn't wait for the New Year and reported it as soon as possible.

He replied with a serious expression: "It seems that since October, the food in the surrounding provinces has begun to become tense. At first, he thought it was caused by the impact of the war. However, the underworld just got his subordinates to report that it seems that someone has been buying and hoarding at a high price since that time. The underworld has ordered a strict investigation to see who is hoarding the house!"

Hu Guang nodded and said to Liu Xingzuo: "You have done a good job and you must find out immediately. If there is not enough manpower, urge the local government to investigate together. This is a big deal!"

"I will obey the order!" Liu Xingzuo's manpower was indeed insufficient. After all, half of the Jinyiwei was unbearable, and many of them were just named. The remaining manpower was spread in the capital, especially in the capital. Many things needed to be taken together by the factory guards, and the manpower on hand was indeed stretched. He felt a little overwhelmed with the matters in the surrounding provinces.

After Hu Guang finished giving the order, he slightly lowered his toes and activated his horse's belly to continue moving forward. At the same time, he said to Liu Xingzuo with some emotion: "There are many businessmen who are actually very smart and have vision. But their minds are not right and they want to make money from the national crisis. I will definitely teach them to be a good person in the future!"

"What Your Majesty said is that many businessmen will make trouble when they have money!" Liu Xingzuo immediately agreed, "For this reason, since Taizu, they have mostly suppressed them, but now the world is getting worse, and these rich people are a little unscrupulous!"

Hu Guang nodded and chatted with him while walking. After entering the city, he looked at the popularity in the city and had a little bit of the New Year atmosphere. He smiled and said to Liu Xingzuo: "You don't have to accompany me anymore. Go home and accompany me..."

As soon as he said this, he suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but stop. He looked at Liu Xingzuo and suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Your family is still on Jianlu's side, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Liu Xingzuo's heart tightened and he quickly replied, "My mother asked Mo Jiang to escape, but she said that she would never be burdened. If Jianlu wanted to force Mo Jiang brothers with them, he would show his ambitions by his death!"

After he spoke, his voice was a little low, a little sad, but he did not pause. After he finished speaking, he fell into deep thought, obviously recalling the past.

From the moment their brothers escaped, the families who stayed in Liaodong were destined to have good results. This worry has been buried in my heart and I have never been willing to think about it. But today is New Year's Eve, and I was raised by the emperor again, and my thoughts surged, and I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Hu Guang was also silent for a moment, and suddenly said to Liu Xingzuo: "After Lu Xiang was promoted to Denglai, he would form a special forces and attack him for a full-time job of thousands of miles. I asked him to cooperate with his internal support and be sure to rescue his family!"

When he heard this, Liu Xingzuo immediately got out of his horse, knelt on his knees, and paid a great greeting with excitement.

Hu Guang stopped the horse again and reached out to signal him, "I understand how your brothers were feeling when they fled! I have also said that protecting the country, defending the country, and the country is one. If you do things for the country, I will also consider it for you!"

Not to mention how grateful Liu Xingzuo was, at this time, less than thirty miles away from the capital, an army was coming to the capital with a fast horse and whip.

This cavalry is not large in number, less than 700, but it is very elite. When speeding forward, it can basically maintain five cavalry and one row. One flag flutters in the wind, and a big "Wu" character stands in the wind.

Suddenly, on the official road where they were running, an army was coming from afar. The two armies were about to meet, and the cavalry had to slow down.

Under the big flag, a man approached the young general in charge and shouted: "Young Master, we are afraid we are late."

At this time, the army coming from the capital was basically no other possibility except for the original army of the kings. Therefore, he said this.

The young general was the 18-year-old Wu Sangui. He also judged what the servant said, and couldn't help but show a hint of disappointment on his face: In the end, he didn't catch up with the reward of merit in the capital!

"Young Master, don't worry. With the ancestors here, you will definitely mention the young master's contributions in front of the emperor. At least one guerrilla can't escape!" The man was already a little older, and he was confident in his words, obviously very experienced.

"Yes, the young master has been guerrilla at a young age, which is even more powerful than the master back then!" Another person comforted him.

After hearing this, Wu Sangui shook his head and said, "You don't understand. I want to show my face in front of the emperor so that His Majesty can remember me. In this way, even if you don't advance to guerrillas, it doesn't matter much!"

Thinking of the imperial edicts he had prepared, he was sure that he would definitely touch the young emperor's heart! But if the capital had dispersed, based on his own level, he would at most meet the Minister of War. This would be a pity!

Thinking of this, he was a little unwilling to give up. He immediately urged the horse to go quickly. When approaching the team, he asked loudly: "Are you the royal army returning from the capital?"

A general flag in front of the team heard this and replied loudly: "Yes, I have received the reward from the emperor. We can go back to celebrate the Spring Festival."

The other soldiers who were rushing to the road were all happy and strode, yelling: "Let's go home, it's the New Year!"
