Chapter 216: It's too expensive to fight, no, I'm going to end the war!
Seriously, Cijing could do this, Lu Jiu never thought of it.
She thought that if she hadn't met Fu Lanqing, she would probably ...... Grow old alone.
Cijing, a fairy figure, is not something that a layman like her can afford.
Lu Jiu replied to Cijing, asking him to stick to his heart.
However, she did not refuse the kindness of resigning.
for the people of the kingdom on the east are her people.
She won't let Cijing give up her faith for her, but if Cijing wants to help her, she won't refuse.
She's always been such a realistic person!
Perhaps, this is the reason why she and Cijing will never be able to go together.
Half a month later, Fu Lin came back.
Fu Lin is getting younger and younger now, young and handsome, and he can't tell that he is over age, and even has a grandson.
"Jiu'er, is there anything I can do to help?"
Seriously, Lu Jiu didn't know what Fu Lin could help with.
It is impossible for him to lead troops to fight, and he can't interfere in the affairs of the court, Lu Jiu thought for a long time before finally remembering one thing: "Father, why don't you help me take care of the baby, I've been busy recently, I'm afraid I don't have much time to take care of him." ”
Fu Lin was a little surprised, and a little cautious: "Can I really do it?" ”
He naturally likes his grandson, but Fu Lanqing doesn't allow him to touch the baby at all.
"It's okay, Fu Lanqing is not here anyway."
As soon as the conversation changed, Lu Jiu said again: "Even if he is here, he can't stop you from seeing the child if you want to, you are the baby's grandfather, and you are not an outsider." ”
Fu Lin's eyes were red: "Thank you, Jiu'er." ”
After being moved, Fu Lin couldn't help but ask again: "Yun'er, ...... he?"
Lu Jiu didn't want him to worry, so he could only say: "The South Yue Kingdom is too busy to take care of itself now, it is impossible to send troops to reinforce, Lan Qing is very good, you don't have to worry." ”
Regarding Fu Lanqing's current situation, Lu Jiu still hid it from others.
If this matter is exposed, it will only make things worse for the eastern country.
After two months of fighting, Lu Jiu saw that the treasury was a little empty, and his heart was about to break.
In the past few years, she racked her brains to increase the yield of farmland, help the people of the whole country to become rich and well-off, and finally paid off those public debts, and the treasury gradually filled, but now when there is a war, hundreds of thousands of mouths have to eat, as well as those armor, weapons, and war horses, everything has to burn money.
The treasury is now empty, and Lu Jiu even posted a lot of money.
Lu Jiu also called on some noblewomen in the capital to donate money and materials, but it was still a drop in the bucket.
Fighting a war is a money-burning business.
If it burns further, I am afraid that it will shake the foundation of Jiufu Firm.
You have to do it quickly, or you'll have to make a big mess.
Lu Jiu also received a letter from the front.
Western Chu and Northern Xinjiang have been fighting like chicken blood recently, and they are desperately attacking the Donglin Kingdom, which is not good at military affairs, and where is the opponent of the brave and warlike Northern Xinjiang soldiers.
You must know that Lu Jiu sent a total of 300,000 soldiers and horses to Wenxuan, while Western Chu and Northern Xinjiang had a total of 500,000, of which 300,000 were brave and good at fighting and strong soldiers in Northern Xinjiang.
The reason why the enemy army is so brave is because the Western Chu State has sent a lot of water this year, not to mention the locust plague, and there is almost no harvest, and the Northern Frontier State has always relied on the Western Chu State in exchange for food, but now the Western Chu State can't even take care of itself, where is there any surplus grain for the Northern Frontier State. 33 Listen to the book
Unfortunately, Donglinguo, the weakest country, has bumper harvests year after year, and the output is seven or eight times that of previous years.
However, at this time, the monarch of the Western Chu State met with a tall woman, and within two days, he directly united with the Northern Frontier State to attack the Eastern Linguo.
Obviously, there was a traitor on the side of Nanyue, not only controlled Nanyue, but even made a deal with the Western Chu State, allowing the Western Chu State to attack the Donglin State, and the Nanyue State would never make a move.
There is still half a month to go before the harvest, and it is precisely because of this that the two northwestern countries are desperately attacking the Donglin country, just for the grain of the Donglin country.
The money is gone, the country is also remembered, the South Vietnamese country is controlled by others, and it is likely that even Fu Lanqing has an accident.
All kinds of pressure were pressed on Lu Jiu's body.
Lu Jiu made a decision.
"What?" Lu Shuangxia was full of disbelief: "You want to go to the border?" ”
Lu Jiu nodded firmly: "That's right, I'm going to the border pass." ”
"Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy." Lu Jiu's expression was very calm: "This war must end as soon as possible, otherwise the Donglin Kingdom will soon be gone!" ”
"But what about you, you're just a weak woman......"
"Second brother!" Lu Jiu's face was full of disapproval: "When the country is in trouble, I can't be so selfish, there is no country, where is the home!" ”
When Lu Shuangxia persuaded himself again, Lu Jiu said directly: "Second brother, I promise you, I will come back safely, I have the ability to protect myself, and Donglinguo will entrust it to you!" ”
"Jiu'er!"
Lu Shuangxia was just stunned, and Lu Jiu had already run away.
But the queen's departure can't be hidden at all.
The baby was so anxious that she cried, and the old lady fainted directly, and finally woke up, but was whipped by the old lady fiercely.
Lu Jiu didn't know about these changes.
Lu Jiu is now rushing to the border pass, just wanting to end this war as soon as possible, and then go to South Vietnam to find Fu Lanqing with confidence.
**
Border.
Wen Xuan was wearing armor, and standing in front of him was Xu Zhiyuan, who was wearing a light cyan robe.
"Ah Yuan, if I can come back alive, are you willing to marry me...... Be your princess? ”
Xu Zhiyuan didn't speak, just lowered his head.
His feelings for Wenxuan are complicated.
When he didn't know that Wenxuan was his daughter, he kept running away, but it is undeniable that he likes and even loves Wenxuan.
However, after learning that Wen Xuan was his daughter, and her words, although he was angry, he was relieved.
Wen Xuan wants him to fall in love with "her" as a man, just to break his convention, in fact, it is true, he is indeed in love with Wen Xuan, whether she is a man or a woman.
He thought they were in love and they should be together.
But that's just what he thought.
Although Wen Xuan likes him and shows everyone her feelings and possessiveness, he is not the most important thing in her heart.
Therefore, she can rely on him to like her, get him into bed and act as if nothing happened the next day, and even want to marry the county lord of Yunning.
The reason she gave was very simple: I am a woman, and the county lord of Yunning is also a woman, what can we have, it's just a formality, Ah Yuan, I don't know what you are minding?
