In just an instant, Ji Qingling broke out in a cold sweat, she didn't interject, she just looked up at Qiu Lu.

Qiu Lu's tears were about to fall, and she opened her mouth to speak, but it took a long time before she trembled and said, "I heard that the Li family lives in the east of the garden and brought more than a dozen people...... I only arrived yesterday, I ...... So he found a reason to wait in the kitchen, and took the opportunity to talk to the little guy who went to get the food - it has spread in the capital, and everyone knows that Jiaozhi raised 300,000 soldiers, slaughtered tens of thousands of people in Qinzhou and Lianzhou, and is now surrounding Yongzhou...... Yongzhou is not even enough for 10,000 soldiers...... The DPRK and China are still arguing about who will lead the troops......"

Ji Qingling only felt chills all over his body, and after a while, he tasted what Qiu Lu meant word by word, and for a moment, his mind was blank, and he didn't think about anything.

The room was eerily quiet.

Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang stood stiffly aside, one holding a kettle in his hand and one holding a tea cup in his hand, all motionless.

Ji Qingling's heart was in a mess, but he knew that now was not the time to be confused, so he only closed his eyes and forced himself to go through the matter from beginning to end, and then raised his head and asked, "When did this happen?" ”

Qiu Lu said: "That person said that it was the news that came out seven or eight days ago, and the Li family took a few days to set off. ”

Ji Qingling silently calculated the time of the hurried replacement, and then calculated the distance to Luoyang from the capital, and the time when the news came out from the DPRK and China, and pushed it back, knowing that most of the Liu family had already known about the siege of Yongzhou, and the reason why the Liu Lin family was in a hurry to ask himself to accompany Liu Muhe to Luoyang this time was just because he didn't want to worry about his family.

However, such things can only be concealed for a while, and how can they be concealed for a long time.

She thought about the history of the previous dynasty in her mind for a long time, but it didn't match the current situation in any way.

If everything is according to the original development, there will be no disaster in Guangnan at this time, although Jiaozhi has been fighting the autumn wind on the border, but it will take a few years before it will really send troops to commit the border - at that time, it was Zhang Bi's eldest brother Zhang Hu who led the troops to level the chaos, and Zhang Hu also relied on this merit to go down in history.

What happened to cause such a change......

Could it be that I came here by myself, so that everything should be different from before?

Ji Qingling's body was cold and hot for a while, and the next person took the food, but she didn't have the heart to eat it, so after thinking about it for a long time, she simply went to find Liu Muhe, and told Qiu Yue the news she heard from the Li family's servant woman, and said again: "Sister Liu, I'm afraid I can't accompany you here." ”

Liu Muhe was shocked and frightened, and hurriedly said, "No? Isn't it the Li family who said it to deceive people? The Li family is used to lying, and they are effective from top to bottom, who knows if that person is making up nonsense to scare people! ”

He also said: "Don't be afraid, I'll ask someone to pack up your things and accompany you back to the capital." ”

Ji Qingling shook his head and said, "I won't go back to the capital, I can't control the affairs of the court, and it's not of great use if I'm not there." ”

Liu Muhe was stunned when he heard this, his face suddenly became serious, and he scolded: "You are crazy! You don't want to go to Yongzhou! Are you a woman, can you go into battle to kill the enemy, or can you command the rescue? What's the use of going to Guangnan, that place is full of Jiaozhi soldiers, what's the difference between going to death and going to die! It's just to make us worry! ”

Fu said: "At this time, I still don't know whether Yongzhou is besieged or not, and if I say it, it is surrounded, and it may not really happen-Yongzhou is a defensive city, as long as the reinforcements arrive, Jiaozhi will naturally retreat - don't panic, I will go back to Beijing with you immediately, and find my grandfather to urge the DPRK to send troops." ”

While speaking, he urged the girl below to pack her luggage, and someone called Mrs. Zhang to come in.

Ji Qingling took her hand and said softly: "Sister Liu, don't be busy, I won't go to Guangnan, I will only go to Tanzhou first, and then go to Hengzhou - those two places are close, and it is easier to listen to the news, I am not only a person, but also guards, and servants, all the way only take the official road, only live in the post station, there will be nothing." ”

He also said: "It is a big deal for the DPRK to send troops to China, and no matter how I think of a way later, it is easy to move left and right, it is better for me to go south first, and it is closer, so that I will not be as anxious as I am now. ”

Where is Liu Muhe willing to listen, he persuaded him over and over again for a long time, he thought he had been persuaded to move, who knew that when he woke up the next day, the right wing room opposite was already empty - Ji Qingling took the guard girl, and actually set off before dawn, leaving only a letter down, which explained a few things, and asked Liu Muhe to help explain to Liu Lin's family, but his house went to the south.

Liu Muhe hurriedly sent someone to chase after him, how could he still catch up, he had already traveled far.

***

Let's say that Ji Qingling left a letter here, and asked the next person to pack some luggage simply, change his riding clothes, and did not take a carriage, but only rode a fast horse all the way to Tanzhou.

The further south you go, the more the snow melts, and the harder the road becomes.

Ji Qingling sent the rest of the people back to Beijing this time, and he only brought Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang, two big girls who could ride horses, a steward, and a few guards and servants, and hired a few dart masters from Luoyang City, which was regarded as a team of people.

It was winter when she set off, and when she arrived in Hongzhou, the branches on the side of the official road had actually pulled out green shoots, and she was waiting for the beginning of spring.

The military information about Guangnan that I heard along the way was half made up nonsense, and for a while it was said that Yongzhou had already surrendered to Kaicheng; At one time, he said that Li Fuzai said that as long as the city handed over the culprit who closed the field that day, he would give the people of Yongzhou a way to live; For a while, it was said that there was trouble in the city, and before the war, Zhizhou cut down a few disobedient soldiers; At one time, it was said that the whole city of Yongzhou had surrendered to the enemy.

Ji Qingling didn't have the time to distinguish them one by one, so he could only bury his head in the road, until he finally arrived in Detan Prefecture after the Shangyuan Festival.

This is a military state in the south, because of the war in Guangnan, first to Pingji Prefecture, Fuzhou two places of rebellion, and then encountered the border of Jiaozhi, Tanzhou only mobilized thousands of soldiers, and then was taken away 2,000 war horses, is the news in the city is flying all over the sky.

Although Ji Qingling went south in a hurry, her actions were not out of order, she arrived at the place, first she was not busy in the streets and alleys outside to inquire about all kinds of war situations, and directly found the largest grain store in the city, and asked the other party whether he could collect grain at the moment, and how much grain he collected, so that the housekeeper pretended to be a grain merchant who bought and sold in the middle, and it really became a few businesses.

She can't do it, she has been in the same place with Gu Yanzhang for many years, and she has learned the method of transportation in the middle, and she has also learned three or five points, knowing that the army has not moved, and the grain and grass go first, as long as Tanzhou is considered the rear, as long as Guangnan still has to fight, it is close to here, and it must help raise grain.
