Chapter 191 Snow Falls
Yu Qingzhi was very angry, she could understand that these people were afraid of taking risks, but it should not be caused by spreading words and causing chaos, Shuozhou City is now besieged, once the situation in the city is discovered by Beidi, Beidi will send troops, causing not a few casualties.
Don't these businessmen know this?
Of course they knew, but they did it anyway.
The more Yu Qingzhi thought about it, the more angry he became, and pointed to a few businessmen and said, "Ignoring the people in the city, spreading rumors, and causing chaos, these behaviors are tantamount to collaborating with the enemy and treason."
As soon as these words came out, several businessmen who were originally unimpressed were all stunned, and quickly jumped up after reacting.
"Nonsense, when did I spread rumors? Isn't it a fact that Beidi wants the Southern Dynasty to come up with grain for people? It's also true that He Jiajun doesn't want to give these grains, right? If you tell you the truth, why do you say that we are collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
The more the businessman spoke, the more angry he became, and his face turned red.
Yu Qingzhi's cold eyes fell on his face, and before he could speak, he heard a "bang", and the merchant who spoke had already been kicked to the ground.
He Lianjun looked at him condescendingly: "No matter how much you say, it can't match the facts, it is a big sin for you to wait for nonsense to cause chaos among the people, and you should be beheaded according to the laws of the Southern Dynasty and dragged it down."
"Yes!"
Dozens of people stepped forward to drag people, and several businessmen were worried and hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Gongzi He, the grass people know that they are wrong, and the grass people ......."
He Lianjun ignored them and turned around: "Lady, let's go."
Yu Qingzhi glanced at a few people and left with He Lianjun.
It didn't take long for the people who did it to report, and several merchants were all killed, and none of them survived, and as for the other messengers, according to the master and slave, most of them were also killed.
When Yu Qingzhi heard this, the whole person was stunned: "Husband, will such a killing make the people chill?"
He Lianjun said lightly: "In troubled times, we should use heavy codes, and the current situation in Shuozhou City cannot tolerate mercy."
Yu Qingzhi knew this, but he just thought of those who were killed, and couldn't help but sigh: "All the troubles come from the mouth, after today's incident, there should be no similar things in Shuozhou City."
He Lianjun bowed: "Indeed."
After killing a few businessmen here, the people in Shuozhou City were suddenly silent and didn't dare to make a fuss anymore.
At the same time, the Beidi army outside the city also noticed the change.
"I didn't expect that He Lianjun's methods were ruthless, so he killed people."
The expression of the fifth prince of Beidi was cold, and his tall figure was full of an indescribable sense of oppression, and several of the surrounding staff exchanged glances, and one of them stood up: "Your Highness, we can't drag it out like this any longer."
The fifth prince glanced at him, picked up the wine in his hand, drank it all in one gulp, and asked another thing: "How long can the rest of the grain and grass last?"
"If you return to Your Highness, it will be three days at most."
The eyes of the fifth prince flashed fiercely: "Three days? That's enough time."
Several staff members were stunned, and after reacting, the faces of several people changed.
"Your Highness, you don't think you're thinking about attacking the city on the last day, are you?"
The fifth prince pulled the corners of his mouth, and his eyes filled with fierceness and publicity: "Only by fighting against the water can you see the result, isn't it?"
"But ......"
The five princes glanced over, and the staff who spoke suddenly lost their voices.
"Just do as I say, and attack the city in three days."
A few of the staff members didn't dare to say more, and retreated after a while.
He Fu.
He Lianjun and Chen Yong and others were discussing the affairs of the Beidi army.
Chen Yong said: "The food and grass of the Beidi army are already insufficient, and they can last for three days at most, but now they have not moved, I am afraid that they have other thoughts."
Another person spoke: "I'm afraid that they will think of fighting against the water, the combat power of the Beidi army is already strong, if it is in a desperate situation, I am afraid that it will play even more powerful, we must be prepared."
"Yes, Childe, we can consider striking first, how about a night attack?"
One person and one sentence, He Lianjun had no words,
Just listen quietly.
After a few people talked, he spoke: "A night attack is feasible, but Beidi must be prepared, if you want to make a move, you have to consider Beidi's ambush."
The He family army has already suffered a loss in Beidi's ambush.
In the silence, Chen Yong asked, "Childe already has a plan?"
He Lianjun smiled slightly: "It's not a plan, it can only be said that it will be planned."
Several people's eyes lit up: "I am willing to listen to the advice of the son."
He Lianjun's fingertips fell on the table, and he said lightly: "As the saying goes, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion, the current general of Beidi is the fifth prince Yunwei, this person is ruthless, but he is arrogant, if you want to deal with him, you have to shake his subordinates from the foundation."
Chen Yong objected: "But Childe, we don't have enough time right now."
He Lianjun smiled: "Three days, it's enough, you wait to do what I say first......
He gave some orders in a low voice, and Chen Yong and the others nodded one after another, and soon left.
Zhuo family, Yu Qingzhi looked at the booklet recorded by Zhuo Wei and Zhuo Rou, and satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
"It's been hard work for two days."
Zhuo Wei smiled slightly: "It's just a matter of duty."
Zhuo Rou followed and spoke: "Yu Niangzi, I heard that Shuozhou City has been completely sealed and no one is allowed to enter or leave, is this serious?"
Yu Qingzhi was slightly stunned, she hadn't heard of it, but if it was arranged by He Lianjun, it should be to resist the Beidi army.
"Shuozhou City is different from other places now, and for the sake of safety, we have to make some changes."
Yu Qingzhi replied with an ambiguous sentence, and then brought the topic back to the arrangement of food: "I am going to send the food to the He family's army tomorrow, and I may need two people to help at that time."
Zhuo Wei agreed: "Don't worry, Lady Yu, my Zhuo family will make follow-up arrangements."
After a few people chatted for a while, Yu Qingzhi returned to He Mansion with the booklet, and He Lianjun happened to go out after talking with Chen Yong and others.
The two sides collided, and Yu Qingzhi bent his eyebrows: "Husband has finished talking with a few people?"
He Lianjun bowed his head, and his eyebrows and eyes were also a little soft: "Yes, what are you?"
Yu Qingzhi raised the booklet in his hand: "I just came back from Zhuo's house."
He Lianjun instantly understood, with a slight smile in his eyes: "Your grain came at the right time, Chen Yong."
Chen Yong tilted his head: "Please give instructions to the son."
"Send a message to Beidi, and say that we are willing to give food, but we need the five princes to come forward to negotiate in person."
"Yes!"
Chen Yong left with the order, and the rest of the people did not stay, and in an instant, only Yu Qingzhi and He Lianjun were left in the same place.
The curvature of Yu Qingzhi's eyebrows deepened: "I heard that Fujun sealed Shuozhou City and no one is allowed to enter or leave?"
He Lianjun bowed: "Just in case."
The two walked to the backyard while talking, and suddenly saw Jiang Tian running over.
"Sister Yu, Brother He, you just came back from outside?"
Yu Qingzhi smiled and said, "I just came back from outside, where are you going?"
Jiang Tian took a deep breath: "Last night, an old man told me that there would be snow in Shuozhou City in the past two days, and I was thinking about going to make some pills to cure the wind and cold first, just in case."
"Will it snow?"
Yu Qingzhi's face changed slightly, and he asked, "That old man's judgment is accurate?"
Jiang Tian frowned slightly: "I'm not sure, but people who know that old man say that his judgment has always been very accurate, and there is no time to make mistakes."
Yu Qingzhi and He Lianjun glanced at each other, their hearts sank uncontrollably, and as soon as there was good news, there was another bad news.
"Husband, if it snows, Beidi will ...... over there."
Yu Qingzhi frowned, and paused in the middle of speaking.
He Lianjun knew what she wanted to say, and after thinking for a while, he asked Jiang Tian, "Where is that old man now?"
"Just east of the city, Brother He wants to see him?
」
He Lianjun bowed: "I want to find out if what he said is true or not?"
Hearing this, Jiang Tian immediately nodded: "Then I'll bring someone over now."
Yu Qingzhi stopped her: "You told me the location, just send someone over to ask for it."
Half an hour later, the old man Jiang Tian said arrived at He's mansion and saluted tremblingly: "I've seen He, Lord He."
He Lianjun stepped forward to help: "Don't be polite to the old man, please get up quickly, come here, serve tea."
When the tea came, He Lianjun invited the old man to take a seat.
The old man looked left and right, and finally only touched a little chair: "I don't know if Lord He is going to see the grass people today, what's the matter?"
He Lianjun got straight to the point: "I heard that the old man's judgment of the weather is very accurate, I don't know if it's true or not?"
The old man understood: "Lord He wants to ask, will it snow in Shuozhou City in the next two days, right?"
He Lianjun bowed: "Please advise the old man."
The old man sighed, his face showing a little helplessness: "Advice is not enough, but Shuozhou City has indeed had snow in the past two days, well, if nothing else, it will start to fall tonight, and by tomorrow morning, it will slowly become larger until it floods the entire Shuozhou City."
The old man said in great detail, He Lianjun squinted slightly when he listened, the time in his mouth was neither early nor late, just enough to judge the truth of his words.
"In this case, I will invite the old man to stay in Hefu for one night today."
In the evening, He Lianjun discussed with Chen Yong and others about the affairs of the Beidi army, and did not return to Hefu.
Yu Qingzhi was idle and bored, so he cooked a sumptuous dinner, and crooked Jiang Tian's eyebrows.
"Sister Yu, I miss your craft so much, oops, I'm so happy."
The corners of Yu Qingzhi's lips rose uncontrollably: "Eat more if you like, if it snows in the past two days, I have time to cook......
Before she finished speaking, there was a sudden loud noise above, and the tiles fell and smashed on the table, followed by more than a dozen people in black.
In the next moment, Baicao grabbed Yu Qingzhi from behind and protected the person behind him: "Someone, there is an assassin!"
The guards burst in from outside the hall, and the smell of blood gradually spread through the crunch of swords colliding.
Yu Qingzhi pulled Jiang Tian out in shock, suddenly felt a cold on his face, and when he raised his eyes, he saw pieces of snowflakes falling, and the sprinkled ones were not big.
It's snowing!
Baicao kicked away a man in black, and the dagger in his hand instantly cut his throat: "Lady Yu, Miss Jiang, go quickly."
Blood splashes, against the background of the snow, look particularly dazzling.
Jiang Tian pursed her lips: "Sister Yu, let's hurry up and find Brother He, so as not to give birth to other branches."
Yu Qingzhi glanced back a few times, gritted his teeth and followed Jiang Tian to the outside of the He Mansion: "He is in the Mansion, let's just go to the Mansion."
"Okay."
Jiang Tian responded, pulled the reins of a horse, flew up, and stretched out his hand towards Yu Qingzhi.
"Whoosh—"
Suddenly, an arrow broke through the snowflakes and headed straight for the Yu Qingzhi.
Jiang Tian noticed that his pupils suddenly shrank, and without thinking about it, he pushed Yu Qingzhi away, and at the same time turned over and wanted to get off the horse.
However, in the next moment, the arrow hit the horse's abdomen, the painful horse neighed, the horse's hooves were raised high, and Jiang Tian on the horse's back was overturned and fell heavily to the ground.
"Sister Jiang!"
Yu Qingzhi shouted, got up from the ground and ran to Jiang Tian's position, but soon, she was surrounded by the black-clothed people who appeared around her.
I don't know when a fire broke out in the He Mansion in the rear, but in a moment, the firelight lit up half of the sky.
