Chapter 413: Good Things Are Grinding
After the year, the impact of the snow disaster is decreasing, Princess Changmin wanted to choose a good day when the spring flowers bloomed and held a succession ceremony, and then waited for the emperor to give Lin Zhu and Mu Qiyue the will to get married, and prepare for the two to get married. This is something that Mu Qiyue has been looking forward to for a long time.
However, there are unforeseen circumstances, because of the great drought in the Tianyuan Dynasty and the reduction of grain production, it is natural that the enemy countries in the north of the kingdom are eyeing each other.
The Tianyuan Dynasty has undergone a change of dynasty, and although the current emperor is making great efforts, the combat power of the army is still very weak compared to the northern neighbors of the people. However, the northern neighbors have a cold climate and less land suitable for cultivation, and most of them are mainly animal husbandry, the staple food is cattle and mutton, grazing in peacetime, and becoming soldiers in wartime, which is also the main reason why they are strong and strong.
The Tian Yuan Dynasty was rich in land and resources, and a relatively stable and prosperous life was what neighboring countries yearned for, so it was always looking for opportunities to expand to the Tian Yuan Dynasty.
The great drought in Tianyuan gave them a good opportunity to prepare for the attack. Soldiers and horses from neighboring countries soon gathered on the border between the two countries.
The Tianyuan Dynasty also kept an eye on the situation of the enemy country, so as soon as the other party moved, it sent a message to the capital.
"Fourth, it seems that this matter has to be done by you personally." The DPRK and China were also divided into two factions because of the war, one faction for peace and the other for the main war. It's just that if they want to make peace with the enemy, the Tian Yuan Dynasty will send them countless amounts of food, money and various huge tributes according to the other party's requirements.
The enemy who gets these will be stronger, but the Tian Yuan Dynasty will not necessarily be able to exchange for a short period of peace. Because there is a lesson to be learned from the capriciousness and insatiability of neighboring countries.
Therefore, the people of the main battle faction still account for the majority. The emperor has his own thoughts in his heart, in the past few years, he not only let Mu Qiyue use the special grain provided by Lin Zhu to plant a large number of seeds, but also secretly raised a large number of excellent war horses.
Although there was a great drought, the grain and grass stored for the army were not diverted, so the emperor was still confident in fighting with his neighbors.
But the person who knows the details of this matter best is Mu Qiyue. And at the beginning of the war. The soldiers and horses do not move, and the grain and grass go first. Coupled with the reason why Mu Qiyue often travels business, he is the only one who secretly transports these grains and grasses, and he is also responsible for the confidential tasks ordered by the emperor. No country can avoid the infiltration of spies. So. His identity and itinerary are top secret.
Thereupon. After Mu Qiyue hurriedly completed the succession ceremony, he secretly went on the road.
Although Lin Zhu knew that the relationship between Mu Qiyue and the emperor was far from being as estranged as it was on the surface. But he didn't expect the emperor to give him such an important and dangerous task. When he learned from Princess Changmin that Mu Qiyue was ordered by the emperor to leave, he was secretly shocked in his heart.
"It's about the safety of Xiaosi, so it's better not to spread the word about this matter." Princess Changmin admonished.
"Yes, I'll take notice." No matter how surprised he was in his heart, Lin Zhu replied cautiously.
Princess Changmin told Lin Zhu in person that this matter was also confessed by Mu Qiyue when he left. Originally, after the succession ceremony, Mu Qiyue would start his relationship with Lin Zhu. But it happened suddenly, and the state affairs were important, so the matter between her and Mu Qiyue had to be put on hold temporarily.
Lin Zhu knew that if this war broke out, the whole country would be in an uproar, and it is estimated that many people are watching now.
Because Mu Qiyue traveled secretly, and Lu Mingtao was sitting in the Muyue Commercial Bank, no one in the capital found out that he had disappeared. Of course, in addition to a few people who know the truth, it also includes General Chang and Prince Qi.
In order to prevent his matter with Mu Qiyue from becoming the focus of discussion in the capital again, Lin Zhu tried not to appear in various banquets as much as possible, and had fewer opportunities to attract attention.
However, even if she is reluctant to show her head, there are still some things that she can't avoid.
First of all, it is impossible for Lin Qingxue to make Lin Zhu quiet.
"Lin, Miss Lin Si, really, it's been a long time." On Lin Zhu's horse to greet Lin Yuewei, there was a person she didn't want to see, the fourth lady of the Lin family, Lin Yuewei's sister Lin Qingxue.
"Miss Lin Zhu is tired, and her brother wants to go to your mansion, but my mother is not at ease, so she asked me to send him over." Lin Qingxue pretended not to see Lin Zhu's surprised and surprised expression.
It's really rare, why haven't I asked someone to send it before. Lin Zhu felt that the so-called decent smile on Lin Qingxue's face in front of him was a little too fake, as if he was calculating something, which made people very uncomfortable to watch.
"Miss Lin Zhu won't be unwelcome, right?" Seeing that Lin Zhu didn't speak, Lin Qingxue was very unhappy, but she still maintained a smiling expression on her face.
"What did Miss Lin Si say, you are a distinguished guest." Lin Zhu pursed his lips secretly, it seemed that the eldest lady had to follow.
Welcoming the two sisters and brothers into the mansion, Lin Yuewei had already been sent to Fu Dou'er's yard. And Lin Zhu had to stiffen his head and face Lin Qingxue, who was smiling with a weird face.
"I heard that Miss Lin Zhu is a frequent visitor to Princess Changmin's mansion, so I really want to congratulate Miss Lin Zhu. It's not easy to get into her old man's eyes. Lin Qingxue was a little jealous of Lin Zhu because she had met Lin Zhu in Princess Changmin's mansion, and she herself couldn't eat it in front of Princess Changmin, so she was a little jealous of Lin Zhu, and her tone of voice was also a little sour.
"Everywhere, it's all her old man who lifts it." Lin Zhu shook his head modestly, and said in his heart, it's all here, can you still be unfamiliar with her old man's house?
"Last time, I entrusted the blessing of Princess Qing, and I was able to enter Princess Changmin's mansion once, I was also very excited, thanks to Princess Changmin's care once, I don't know if I can go to thank her old man," Speaking of this, Lin Qingxue's words paused, "Miss Lin Zhu and Princess Changmin get along well, can you help me convey your heart?" ”
Although I don't know what Lin Qingxue's purpose is to see Princess Changmin, Lin Zhu can't easily agree, after all, Princess Changmin's mansion is an extraordinary time.
"As Miss Lin Qingxue, it should be easy to worship Princess Xie Changmin, I am soft-spoken, I'm afraid I won't be able to help Miss Four." Lin Zhu shook his head and refused.
"Really?" Lin Qingxue couldn't help but clench her hands, it was because she was rejected that she thought of borrowing Lin Zhu's help, Lin Zhu's refusal really embarrassed her. "In that case, I can't force it."
Just as the two were talking, Fu Douer and Lin Yuewei suddenly broke in.
"Sister." Both of them called Lin Zhu, each holding a knife made of wood in their hands.
"Is he?" Lin Qingxue saw Fu Dou'er head-on for the first time, and suddenly felt that he was very familiar, and couldn't help but cast a questioning gaze on Lin Zhu. (To be continued......)
