Chapter 164: Garbage Court

A quarter of an hour later,

Zhou Lingling walked out of the woods.

Tie Yuan and others who were guarding outside looked at her.

"Miss Zhou, if that doesn't work, we'll take the man back and let the military advisor interrogate him."

"Yes, there is nothing that cannot be found out in the hands of a military advisor!"

It turns out Qizhu is more than just a show-off...

Zhou Lingling seemed to be lost in thought.

"If you want to continue the trial, then take everyone back."

What she asked was really... horrifying.

Let Qizhu ask it himself.

The power of plot is strong.

By this time, with the court's reprimand and summons, it was time for the Third Prince to come to the Northern Frontier.

But the original book didn't mention that the Third Prince had any connection with the barbarians...

Zhou Lingling frowned.

It takes at least half a month to get from Shangjing to Northern Xinjiang, so there is still time.

That afternoon, Zhou Lingling and Tie Yuan rushed back to Northern Xinjiang.

Qizhu is not a vegetarian after all.

The results were quickly revealed.

It turns out that these people are in Wushuang City for the third prince!

Wait for the third prince to arrive in Wushuang City and assist him in killing the King of Northern Frontier who is returning to the capital.

If successful, the Third Prince promised to hand over the twelve cities in the north!

Absolutely ridiculous!

What's even more ridiculous is that Qi Zhu just received news from the capital that is consistent with the other news these people said.

The imperial court issued an edict ten days ago, in which His Majesty angrily accused Xiao Yan of harboring troops and being disloyal and unfilial, and urgently summoned him back to the capital.

According to those people's confession, as soon as the general left the northern border, he would be ambushed endlessly.

The third prince will take the opportunity to take over the northern border and open the door for the barbarians.

By then, the Northern Army without a general would be like a pile of loose sand.

If the barbarians set foot in the northern border, the lives of 100,000 people in the northern border would be at stake...

Thinking back carefully, it was more than ten days ago when Hubei City discovered the Northern Barbarian Army.

There is almost no doubt about the blessing.

In order to obtain the Northern Army and to avenge the disgrace and heavy losses that caused him last year, the Third Prince colluded with the Northern Barbarians!

This is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger!

fortunately.

As early as half a month ago, the general had traveled from the snowy plains to protect the northern city and had already begun to collect food and fodder and dispatch troops.

After receiving the news from the court, he quickly sent people to Hubei City.

Miss Zhou went to Wushuang City and caught these people.

This means that the other party's plan to launch a surprise attack from both inside and outside has failed.

All this is because of...new food.

Because of the new grain, the barbarians sent people to sneak into Anbei City in advance without telling their ally, the third prince.

So Anbei discovered the barbarians, and thus exposed their snowfield route.

That's why the general went to the snowfield in person after learning about the Mulin tribe.

Afterwards, he discovered something and headed to Hubei City...

Qi Zhu looked through the window at the figure slowly walking towards the yard with complicated eyes.

All this is because of the new food and also because of her.

Otherwise, with the barbarian army on one side and the imperial edict and the unscrupulous Third Prince on the other, it would be really tricky.

The 100,000 tons of grain and grass did not pass through Anbei City at all, but were directly transported to the border.

They are sure to win this battle!

But now... the news coming from the south made it difficult for him to make a decision.

"Miss Zhou."

"Hello, Military Advisor."

As soon as Zhou Lingling came in, she got straight to the point: "I have something I want to ask you."

Qi Zhu asked her to sit down and poured tea for her himself.

"What's the matter?"

Zhou Lingling: "I heard earlier that the new grain in Yunlai Town was harvested before the New Year and has already been distributed."

"Yes."

Qizhu nodded.

Zhou Lingling continued to ask, "So Lu Yuan and the others should be leaving for Northern Xinjiang, right? Or have they already left?"

"So, what's the current situation in Yunlai Town? Is my grandparents and their family safe?"

Qizhu's hand holding the fan paused.

"In the Southern Region, the overall situation is currently relatively stable..."

"There were indeed frequent disturbances after you left, but the six counties of Yunshui worked together, so there weren't any major disturbances."

"Your maternal grandfather's family was originally considered safe..."

Having said that, Qi Zhu frowned slightly, not knowing how to start.

However, Zhou Lingling had a feeling that it was as expected.

"Just say it."

Qi Zhu thought for a moment and then said, "I just received the news last night. The imperial envoy sent by the court to collect grain, carrying the emperor's order, transferred 5,000 troops from Jiangnan to Yunshui County."

"Five thousand soldiers surrounded the county government office and the farm, and seized nearly a thousand kilograms of new grain. County Magistrate Du and the Chen family have been escorted to Shangjing."

Zhou Lingling: “!!!”

Zhuangzi's goal was still too big.

She also underestimated the shamelessness of the imperial court.

In the original book, the heroine presented sweet potatoes through the county government, and after a lot of work by the two of them, it took the people half a year to actually get the grain seeds.

In this life, County Magistrate Du also reported the matter of new grain to the imperial court.

The only difference was that at that time, all the grain seeds Zhou Qianqian had were given to the imperial court, which cultivated and distributed them in large quantities.

However, after passing through the county government, she actually distributed the grain directly to the people...

Garbage court.

Really, if she had thousands of troops at her disposal, she would have defeated him long ago!

Zhou Lingling was very angry.

Another thought also arose in my mind.

In this era, although imperial power is above all else, if one has the strength and holds a valuable treasure, he can still fight the enemy.

Instead of being easily grasped or even crushed to death by the opponent with just one finger...

Uncle Tie and his men are only useful in a small place like Yunlai Town, where they can intimidate people.

But if they leave that place, the sky is high and the earth is far away, and she and they are still too weak.

Zhou Lingling made up her mind and decided to put this matter on the agenda.

And now, she said to Qi Zhu very seriously:

"Since I previously provided manpower and food to Northern Xinjiang, I don't have any other requests. I just hope to see my family members safe."

"If my maternal grandfather and his family can reach Northern Xinjiang safely, I can provide a new kind of food for Northern Xinjiang and ensure their survival there."

This was a deal, one Qizhu couldn't refuse.

His eyes tightened.

The news that came from the Southern Region earlier did say that there were three new kinds of grain in the Zhou family’s farm.

This time, all the land near Anbei City was planted with potatoes.

If he remembered correctly, there was also a kind of grain called corn and a kind of grain called sweet potato.

There were still 20,000 kilograms of corn in the warehouse, which were originally transported to northern Xinjiang together with potatoes.

But looking across the northern border, the only people who know how to plant are Zhou Lingling and Han You.

The general had already given orders that Tie Yuan and the others had left the barracks and would live out their retirement in the Zhou family.

So they may not necessarily hand over the planting methods.

Lu Yuan and the others were still on their way back. Even if they did, they wouldn't dare to try without Zhou Lingling's help...

Qi Zhu’s mind raced through many twists and turns, and then his brows relaxed.

He smiled and said, "Miss Zhou, that's not true."

"You are not only the general's savior, but also the benefactor of our northern border."

"We will definitely ensure the safety of your loved ones. Miss Zhou, please wait patiently to be reunited with your family!"

For the sake of the hungry soldiers in the barracks and for the future prosperity of Northern Xinjiang, they had to do something...

Besides——

A faint light flashed in Qizhu's eyes.

For some opportunities, they have indeed waited long enough.
