Chapter 406: Emperor Chu

When Jian Wuwu returned to the Marquis of Lanling's mansion, it was already night.

The girls gathered in the courtyard and listened to Liang Xiao's storytelling, and Liang Xiao did not forget to write and draw while telling the story.

Except for Jiang Fuxue, who was happy, the other girls, including Gongsun Yue, all couldn't take their eyes off him, looking at him with affection, and they were almost reluctant to look away for a moment.

Sword Carefree is secretly surprised.

The content of his writing and drawing should be used for official business, and even so, he did not forget to accompany his relatives, and his single-mindedness did not seem to affect his efficiency.

She read all the big Sunday newspapers, and each issue will publish a new poem by Liang Xiao, which is widely praised and can be passed down through the ages.

How many famous literati and scholars may not be able to write a poem of this level in their lifetime.

When the Gongsun family found Jiang Fuxue, she had already settled in the capital with Liang Xiao.

There is the foot of the Son of Heaven, the young Jiang Fuxue swore to death that he did not want to return to Bashu, and the strength of the Gongsun family outside Bashu was limited, so he naturally did not dare to mess around.

After a secret conversation with Jian Wuyi, Jian Wuwu was roughly determined.

This young person may have a certain trait that can subtly influence those around him.

Even a people with firm beliefs like Qin Baili ......

Looking at Jiang Fuxue from afar, Jian Wuwu felt sad in his heart.

This is her own daughter, and now she is a stranger.

The reason why this child was willing to contact the Gongsun family before was only to use the power of the Gongsun family to support Liang Xiao's development......

Mu Qinxue found the sword for the first time and greeted her from afar.

"Auntie, would you like to sit down?"

Only then did everyone notice that the sword was worry-free and greeted one after another.

"No need, it's good to see you young people having fun, it's just old people passing by, let's go and rest."

Jian Wuwu just smiled and left, going back to his yard.

Liang Xiao watched her leave and thought to himself.

The wise words of the bad old man, none of the women of the Gongsun family are fuel-efficient lamps.

In terms of seniority, the bad old man is his grandfather's brother.

His aunt (grandfather's sister-in-law), that is, Shiniang, actually has a grandson's surname......

However, Beihu is the current enemy, and as for Jian Wuwu and others, they can communicate slowly or negotiate.

Xiahou Qingyi looked at the back of Jian Wuwu leaving, and a little worry appeared in his eyes.

Her master is now reasonable and has an excellent evaluation of Liang Xiao.

Now she can only pray that this Mrs. Gongsun can also treat Liang Xiao well, and don't blow the wind in her ears to the master and cause trouble for Liang Xiao.

After all, it's an eventful time, it's just that no matter how busy he is, he can find time to spend with his family.

That night, the scouts in the Guanlong area also rushed back to the army to report the news.

"Report to the Marshal! The enemy suddenly began to entrench themselves in the north this morning! ”

Guan Longzhong immediately became nervous.

"The enemy has suffered here, and they will definitely not give up. If the Beihu people have a strategic vision, they will definitely give priority to invading Yanzhou, after all, there are two major Xiongguan to the east of Guanlong. A military advisor analyzed.

Lin Shi reminded: "Having said that, Guanlong still can't be taken lightly, if the Beihu people can't attack Yanzhou for a long time, they may still turn to Guanlong, and if our army is not prepared, Guanlong may fall." While the enemy army has not yet invaded in a big way, the north side should be fortified and cleared, and the enemy camp should be regularly inspected, and it is strictly forbidden that the enemy army will have sufficient fodder after invading the territory. ”

The generals echoed one after another, and the Guanlong area sent troops overnight, carrying fuel, and burned them in places close to the enemy camp and where the weeds were thick.

Due to the dark moon and high wind, the Beihu people did not react much, but just waited for it.

At dawn, tens of thousands of Guanlong war horses were manipulated by the Guanlong cavalry to gnaw on the forage of the northern grasslands.

In the early morning of the next day, Yanzhou also sent Yanyun Iron Cavalry to the northern grasslands to harvest fodder frantically, and at the same time cover the people to cut down some trees.

Summer is the most prosperous period for weeds, and Liang Xiao is well prepared.

Regardless of whether the enemy army moves south this year or not, it will be considered as the worst-case scenario.

Da Chu, inside the imperial study.

Xing Feng was summoned by Emperor Chu alone.

"Li Xinwen went to Da Zhou, and he actually provoked this kind of thing, what do you think......"

Emperor Chu furrowed his brows, looking worried.

Xing Feng showed Li Xinwen's secret letter and explained: "The minister and the princess received her letter separately, and after she met Dongye and the moon fell by chance, she found that she was mean and unkind, and the maids and guards around her did not look like the temperament of ordinary rich and noble people. His convoy traveled all the way south, the purpose was unknown, and he was worried that this woman would enter our country and confuse the monarch and ministers. ”

"Higashino's Falling Moon is suspicious, but her personal inference alone is not enough to characterize this woman." Emperor Chu was displeased.

Xing Feng explained: "The minister thinks that at present, the rebels of the Tianri Sect in Jiangnan are rampant, but this woman dares to flee from Jiangnan and march towards Dachu, instead of being killed by the people of the Tianri Sect, maybe this woman should have something to do with the Tianri Sect." As for the Northern Hebei Army, it stands to reason that it should have no grievances or enmity with the Tianri Sect, and even have a common enemy, so it must have been a black cauldron. ”

Emperor Chu sighed: "No matter what, the death of this woman will more or less affect my Great Chu, and the Tianri Sect is rampant in the north, I am afraid that the business between the two countries will be hindered in the near future." Aiqing, that Liang Xiao's white sugar and cheap books, and the sea salt of the Great Zhou Imperial Court, have earned at least two million taels of silver from our Great Chu, and in the long run, Great Chu can only let Great Zhou suck blood. ”

Xing Feng reminded: "The purchase of books is a disadvantage for a while, and the merit is for a long time, and Your Majesty can also use this to knock those families, let them have more blood, and fatten the treasury." As for sea salt, since China knows the method of drying in the Great Zhou, it should be studied as soon as possible, and it will be self-sufficient. ”

"How to study? No clue! "Emperor Chu had a headache.

Xing Feng analyzed: "After the minister went to the salt field in his country to observe, he found that those coarse salts are the easiest to precipitate after drying, but more toxins will be precipitated in the future, so we only need to find ways to control the intensity of drying, and at the same time ensure the continuous supply of fresh seawater, and we will be able to collect sea salt." ”

Chu Huang smiled with relief: "From today onwards, the Ministry of Industry will listen to your arrangement!" ”

After Xing Feng received the order, Emperor Chu said: "What do you think of the relationship between the two countries and Liang Xiao and his people?" ”

Xing Feng said: "As long as Your Majesty thinks of the people, there is no need to worry about the Great Zhou going south." As for Liang Xiao, this person is a genius, give him ten years, maybe the Great Zhou will be unprecedentedly strong......"

"What if I want you to go north with the army and attack Jiangnan?"

Emperor Chu's cold inquiry made Xing Feng fall into deep thought.

"Even if Your Majesty really has this intention, the current situation is unclear, and it is not conducive to going north."

Emperor Chu sighed: "I can't hide it from you." At present, our country does not dare to take advantage of the situation, I am old, and a hundred years later, the new monarch still relies on your assistance to prevent King Wu from stealing the country. ”

As soon as he said that, Emperor Chu began to cough violently.

"By the grace of His Majesty's recreation, the ministers must be loyal to your Majesty, loyal to Your Majesty, and kind to the people!" Xing Feng swore an oath.

After Emperor Chu was relieved, he bowed slightly.

"Be kind to the people, that's a good point! If it weren't for the fact that I slaughtered the city of Gaozu and provoked a civil uprising, which caused the Central Plains to worry, maybe it would be my Great Chu who ruled the world at that time......"

"After I'm gone, you can find a way to protect yourself."

In the north of Yanzhou, the Great Zhou scouts probed on the heights and found a Beihu cavalry team of several hundred people.
