Attacked that prince!

As for why Jiang Lou sent the letter, both of them were at a loss as to what the letter would contain, especially at this juncture, no matter from which point of view, Jiang Lou shouldn’t have sent this letter. Come.

He has only just returned to the Northwest. Although he is still the eldest son, who has been away from home for many years, who can really put him in the eyes of the eldest son?At this time, he still sends letters to Zan Lang, unless it is through a very hidden channel, otherwise he will inevitably be criticized.

Holding the thin envelope, Zan Lang fell into deep thought, but before she could think it through, Qu Muting took the letter away and opened it.She was actually very happy to hear that it was Jiang Lou's letter. In her eyes, Jiang Lou was still that stubborn young man trapped in love. She hoped that Jiang Lou could let go of the past and become a playboy in the Northwest. Majesty, that's enough.

But obviously, the facts were not as she expected. Jiang Lou’s letter was very simple, almost nothing about himself was mentioned. In the letter, he focused on writing some abnormalities in the Northwest today, reminding the food and grass sent by King Zanlang Pingyao. There is a problem with the army, Zan Lang needs to be more vigilant, I don't know if it was unintentional or intentional at the end, the sentence "Hello, Prince Xin" is just a sentence, but Qu Muting frowned.

"Isn't Uncle Wang in the northwest with Jiang Lou? What does he mean by this letter? Isn't Uncle Wang in the northwest?"

After Zan Lang brought the letter over, he said: "I just received the news from Wangcheng. After sending the letter to the father, the father is very careful about the northwest, and the king of Pingyao is also aware of it. Uncle Wang is worried and has already returned. "As he spoke, he glanced at the letter again: "It's just that, according to the time, Uncle Wang should not have arrived in Wangcheng at this moment, why did he specifically name Uncle Wang?"

Qu Muting didn't know why, what she could think of was the stubborn young man watching the back of his lover leaving, and swallowing bitter tears alone. For Jiang Lou, maybe it was just a kind of longing.

"What does he mean by saying that there is a problem with the grain and grass army sent by King Pingyao?" Qu Muting was a little nervous. She had seen too many similar scenes, and said a little uneasy: "Could it be that the king of Pingyao sent a large army to plan to send grain and grass under the pretext of escorting the grain and grass?" Invade Lingnan?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he shook his head and denied his own thoughts: "This is too ridiculous. The distance between Lingnan and Northwest is far away. With his skill to go to Lingnan, it is better to directly attack the king's city. The battle line is so long. How can he Affordable?"

Zan Lang frowned and read Jiang Lou's letter from the beginning again. Long-distance combat is indeed disadvantageous, but there are strange things everywhere in the south of the five ridges. It is much stronger than the Northwest.

Maybe King Pingyao didn't want to invade the king's city at all?If his goal was Lingnan, then all this would be clear.

"You mean he wants to occupy Lingnan?" Qu Muting repeated in disbelief: "It's just to occupy Lingnan?"

"This should be encroachment. From the northwest to Lingnan, once he has gained a firm foothold, he can rebel anytime and anywhere." Zan Lang's eyes carried a sharp blade: "And Lingnan may have already been his territory. King Pingyao This move is just to find a reason to garrison troops in Lingnan in an upright manner."

Zan Lang's speculation is not completely unreasonable. The purpose of the two sneaking into Zhulu City by hiding their identities is to find out what is still old in it. In front of the two of them, what they have to do is to uncover this layer of hidden veil.

Since King Pingyao intends to use Lingnan as a new stronghold, Zan Lang's main purpose now is to take this stronghold for him quietly, but it is easy to say, but much more difficult to do.

Chang Xun, the governor of Lingnan County, is a military general, and he is very brave and good at fighting. If he hadn't hidden so deeply, Zan Lang would never have thought that this person would be a lackey of King Pingyao. There is such a general in Lingnan, Stationed, no wonder Pingyao Wang dared to be so fanfare.

Since there are generals here in Lingnan, there are bound to be hidden soldiers. After Zan Lang went around and surveyed, he was able to confirm that the so-called Northwest of the Northwest was the camp where Chang Xun secretly hid soldiers for training. Avoiding people's eyes and ears, she tried several times to go and investigate, but the security in the northwest was so strict that there was no way to investigate at all. She didn't know how many troops Chang Xun had hidden.

The news has already come from the capital, Zan Zixin has also left for Lingnan to support Zan Lang, and after Zan Lang heard the news, not only did he not let go of his heart, but his heart became even higher. If Zan Zixin also left the capital, a small The small Lingnan needs Uncle Wang to personally support it. It can be seen that the water in Lingnan is much deeper than she thought.

Thinking of this, Zan Lang clenched her fists. As a matter of urgency, she must first find out how many troops are stationed in Lingnan, and what kind of person is Chang Xun, the county guard. In this battle, they are in a passive state. , the enemy can be said to know them well, but they know almost nothing about the enemy.

"Chang Xun, the governor of the county, is a rigorous person, and I'm afraid it's not easy to get close to him." Si'er has been in Lingnan longer than the two of them, and has asked for more information: "When the new store just opened, I also wanted to inquire about news. Seeing what this is like with the local parent officials, I sent an invitation letter to invite him, but this invitation letter was sent out, but there was no news about it, let alone meeting him."

Zan Lang unconsciously played with the cup in his hand. Chang Xun was a local official and had been in office for a long time. Zan Lang didn't know much about him, but he had heard some rumors about him. Being brave and resourceful is a general, but when this general becomes your enemy, then this matter becomes a bit tricky.

"Take the initiative to look for him, but he doesn't see him, so why not let him come and take the initiative to look for us?" Qu Muting raised his eyebrows: "As a county guard and the official of the parents of the common people, Lingnan has been trampled into such a state by him, in his heart He didn't even feel the slightest sense of guilt, which shows that this person is a ruthless character."

"What does Master Mu have in mind? You might as well say it clearly." Si'er covered her mouth and smiled: "Si'er is dull, but I can't guess what Master wants to do."

"He purposely messed up the pool of water in Lingnan in order to make the people lose hope, and then let King Pingyao appear as a savior to save the people from the fire and water, so they will naturally be loved by the people." Qu Muting looked at Zan Lang: "Then we will do the opposite, but the risk is a bit high. If we do that, Chang Xun will definitely not let it go. He will definitely find him when the time comes. I am afraid that he will play tricks then."

"What do you want to do?" His Royal Highness, who had received the signal from the Crown Princess, began to trust him unconditionally: "Tell me and have a look."

It is said to come and see, but it is really waiting to hear what my daughter-in-law says, very well-behaved, very loving, I can't help but look at the sky, and sigh, this is the fate of people, Born to be different.

Otherwise, why is she so affectionate and she still has to pretend she didn't see anything?It's so sad!

"Do you still remember what the old man said before we entered the city?" Qu Muting made a fool of himself.

"He said a lot, what do you mean?" Zan Lang also cooperated with a good temper.

"Most of the fertile land in the surrounding areas of Lingnan has been abandoned. The common people are living on the government's relief. Although it is very hard, they still have enough food." Qu Muting said solemnly: "It can be done according to Chang Xun's plan. From the point of view of the method, the government’s relief is probably not going to be issued again, he should be waiting for the food and grass of King Pingyao, and then distribute the food with great fanfare after King Pingyao’s food and grass arrive, so as to build momentum for King Pingyao.”

Zan Lang nodded, waiting for the Crown Princess to continue.

"In this case, we might as well act in advance." Qu Muting changed his tone: "Originally, the purpose of going to Lingnan this time was for disaster relief. Now that we have come, let's start with disaster relief. The common people down there can eat food and have enough food and clothing. Guaranteed, when Pingyao King's food and grass arrive, it will only be a icing on the cake, and it will not cause too much trouble."

"What else?" Zan Lang looked at the Crown Princess and asked what she hadn't finished speaking.

"Land. If the land is not cultivated for a long time, that is not the solution. Solving the land cultivation is the most important problem, but this is up to you to solve, and then we can contribute money and efforts to help the common people resume farming." Qu Muting Looking at Zan Lang's eyes are full of little stars.

This is the first time that she has stood together with Zan Lang to discuss issues in this capacity, and that feeling is extraordinarily novel. Zan Lang's side advises her, even if Zan Lang may not need it, even if all she wants to say are issues that Zan Lang has already considered, but this is enough, and she has begun to slowly get rid of the useless The famous princess concubine has become a real woman beside Zan Lang.

The author has something to say: I just found out that I didn’t do my homework... I wanted to go to bed early, but I had to stay up all night covering my dark circles and saying I love you, okay?

Out of town
