Gong Liulang did not mention the news of the court's absence in the letter.

First, he didn't know the situation of the fort, and second, he was afraid that something might happen to the officers and soldiers sent out, and that the letters would be intercepted.

Therefore, the letter only mentioned the total amount of grain stored in the granary and the remaining number of Yizhou soldiers, and earnestly requested the Qinghe Wei family to provide rescue.

Wei Ji lay on the bed, took the letter and looked through it again and again, but found nothing wrong.

It seems that the Yizhou army did not know that it was the Wei clan who broke into the warehouse and stole the grain.

The letter said that there were still more than 200,000 dan of grain left in the Yizhou granary. For the Wei family, this was a huge pie in the sky, and it was given in the name of rescuing the Yizhou army, which was a legitimate reason.

However, the weather now is not suitable for going out and taking risks.

Wei Ji pondered for a moment and made a decision, "Tell those two scouts that the Yizhou army is the imperial army, and the Qinghe Wei clan will never stand by and watch someone die."

"But the weather is terrible right now, so rescue may have to wait until after winter..." Wei Ji made arrangements calmly. "As for Gong Liulang and the other soldiers, they can first come to the fort to avoid the disaster. When the weather improves, we can send our troops to accompany them to the granary to rescue the imperial court's food and supplies."

Two hundred thousand dan of grain could not be transported in a short time. The temperature was getting lower and lower. The servants in the fort had to get up in the middle of the night every day to clear the snow from the roof, for fear that the thick layer of snow would crush the house.

In such bad weather, Wei Ji would never agree to let his granddaughter and his men go out to take risks.

Although food is precious, how can it be compared with one's own granddaughter?

If Gong Liulang and others want to come over, they can let their own people push some food over first. As for how much they can transport, that is their own business.

The two officers received a reply quickly. They did not dare to delay and immediately returned along the same route to bring the information back to the granary.

………

When Wei Xiyin arrived at the camp, Qin Shan and Chang Ying hurried forward to greet her.

Chang Ying said worriedly, "Girl, someone is coming to the granary. What should we do?"

If the imperial court discovers his identity, his entire clan will be exterminated.

Except for the guards who went out and the people in the old house, the clansmen had no idea what had happened. The guards understood the serious consequences of this matter, so they kept silent after returning and blocked the news.

Qin Shan stood aside silently, but in his heart he was thinking whether he should kill all those officers and soldiers.

"Why are you panicking? We were all wearing masks at the time and they didn't have any evidence." Wei Xiyin said lightly.

She turned her head to look at the wooden oxen and flowing horses under the eaves, "Order them to put away the armor and other protective gear, as well as the modified wooden oxen and flowing horses."

The fort is very safe, and there is no need to use the armor unless you go out. The main reason is that the thirty modified wooden oxen and flowing horses are too conspicuous.

The guards hurriedly did as they were told, sending all the armor to the armory for storage, pushing the wooden ox and horse into the small warehouse in the camp, and locking the warehouse directly.

Wei Xiyin sent another guard to the blacksmith shop and asked Wei Ting to lock all the protective gear currently being made into the armory.

Cheng Xiu, who was staying at the old house, quickly asked Uncle Wu about the situation and returned to the camp to report, "Miss, those two soldiers are here to ask for help. The Yizhou granary is using the name of Gong Liulang from Qichuan to request the Qinghe Wei family to help."

"Are you asking for help?" Wei Xiyin raised her eyebrows slightly. This was something to ponder.

Should we rescue the Yizhou Army or Gong Liulang?

If it is the former, then why use the name of Gong Liulang? If it is the latter, then why use the banner of Yizhou Army?

Although the Yizhou Army took orders from the Governor Gong Changjun, it was the army of the imperial court and was definitely not the private army of the Qichuan Gong family.

Wei Xiyin suddenly thought that during the last grain transportation, Lord Zhang actually opened the warehouse door and let them take the grain on their own. In the interval between the two grain transportations, Lord Zhang's attitude was so different, which was really too abnormal.

Could there be any changes in the two hours between them?

For example, what about Gong Liulang who was tied up and had a bruised face?

But at the moment, the information was asymmetric, and thinking too much was useless. She turned to the two of them and said, "Just pretend this never happened and carry on as usual. I believe that in the territory of the Qinghe Wei family, those officers and soldiers would not dare to offend us casually."

"yes!"

The two officers and soldiers had just left.

Mingjingtang issued a notice to call on clansmen and villagers to repair the canteen. After hearing the news, the people of Yongning County who had nothing came to sign up.

Mingjingtang welcomes everyone who comes, as long as they are strong and able to work. If there are bricklayers or people who can read and write, the food reward will be doubled.

Xie Ruian was also among those who signed up.

Ever since she followed the girl back to the fort, she immediately understood the truth of the matter. She was shocked to learn the true identity of this group of "bandits".

You have to know that the name of Qinghe Wei family is well-known throughout Yizhou and even the entire Yuan Dynasty. Who would have thought that the girl had such a prominent family background.

Xie Ruian knew the importance of the matter and knew that the matter of transporting grain could not be mentioned, otherwise it would affect the fort. Now it was very safe here. She had finally found a place to stay, so she naturally cherished it very much.

The people from Mingjingtang assigned Xie Ruian a room in Zuoxiang. The two bags of food that the girl had given her were still there. She was afraid that the food would not be safe in the room, so she went to ask Commander Qin to deposit the food in the military camp.

But living off the savings is not a solution. Seeing that they were recruiting workers, Xie Ruian quickly followed the crowd from Zuoxiang over here.

The uncles and aunts of Mingjingtang have already established the usage of wooden signs. Signs are divided into three types: bamboo signs and wooden signs. Wooden signs are further divided into poplar signs and pine signs.
