Just before her family was confiscated and exiled, Shen Yunyue emptied her own storeroom and, while she was at it, also emptied the太子(crown prince's) mansion's storeroom.
This was...
Chapter 333 Crescent Valley
Ying Feng laughed heartily, "We have plenty of treasures with us. There's no god giving us treasures. It's because we have a god-like master by our side."
Chang Yuan looked at Fu Xuanheng with admiration.
Yingfeng spoke lightly:
"Don't look at it, it's our wife."
Chang Yuan: ...The Hedong Lion that my younger sister mentioned?
As if seeing through Chang Yuan's thoughts, Ying Feng spoke with disdain:
"There's no place in the whole Great Zhou like our lady. She's the most beautiful and talented woman in the Great Zhou, skilled in medicine, agriculture, and mechanical engineering..."
Chang Wei frowned, "Is there such a wonderful woman?"
"Of course. Our wife can develop a new potato variety that can yield over 4,000 kilograms per mu."
"It's said to be four thousand catties, but the tallest one on our farm weighs six thousand catties."
Before he finished speaking.
Chang Wei almost swore, "Nonsense."
An Er casually took out the compressed biscuits and dried meat from his bag and said, "General Chang, you can send someone to inquire about it."
"Nowadays, people in the vicinity of the capital, including Jinyang Prefecture and Yanling Prefecture, are planting it on a large scale."
Chang Wei became interested.
The climate conditions in the north are not good.
I can't grow anything else except potatoes.
The yields of other crops are even more alarmingly low.
The potato yield is only 600 to 700 kilograms per mu.
"Is it really that powerful? Then our soldiers can have enough to eat." Chang Wei had no complaints about the soldiers and often used his own salary to subsidize those soldiers who retired due to injuries.
The wind and sand outside were like the roar of hundreds of ghosts.
Fu Xuanheng and his men brought out some wine, and the dozen or so people shared it. They didn't dare to finish it all, as they didn't know what would happen next.
He asked Chang Wei some questions about his soldiers.
Then he thought of the secret letter sent by Shen Yunyue, which mentioned the allowances of the soldiers in the army.
"We have a Yunheng Legion in Shihan Province. I will allocate military funds to you on schedule in the future. I will also allow you to promote the cultivation of potatoes and sweet potatoes in the northern border."
"It's also good to grow cotton here." He vaguely remembered that the land near the north border was suitable for growing cotton.
The northern border is vast and sparsely populated.
Often, after hundreds of miles, there are only post stations on the official road, and no other villages.
"And send a group of military doctors over."
"Military doctor?" The military doctors under Chang Wei's command have all been with him for many years.
Two of them said that they were old and wanted to return to their hometown to spend their remaining years.
He was stopped by Chang Wei.
"Well, I'm working with Yaowang Valley. They're training military doctors and sending them to where we need them."
Chang Yuan: .... My benefactor is truly different.
"Medicine King Valley? But that's the Medicine King Valley that doesn't like to interact with anyone. It's said that they only treat people based on their mood and money."
They dare not use their power to oppress them.
Otherwise, you might not know until you die that these people have tampered with your treatment.
"Yes, it's this Medicine King Valley."
Chang Wei and Chang Yuan looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
They keep their promises and naturally hope that the people they follow will be powerful.
The people from Yaowang Valley followed them, which naturally provided an extra layer of protection.
"Master, the ambitions of Xiliang, Beiliang, and Nanli Kingdom cannot be underestimated. We must make careful plans."
Fu Xuanheng glanced at Chang Wei indifferently.
Pursing his lips, he said, "Nanli Kingdom is our ally."
It used to be Xiliang’s ally, but now it is their ally.
Chang Wei almost choked on the wine in his mouth.
It seems that Fu Xuanheng has everything ready except the east wind.
It's just that we're missing an army to fight in the front line.
After drinking, Fu Xuanheng fell asleep with his purse in his hand.
The next morning.
They set off again.
After going out, I found that the sandbags had moved in a different direction than yesterday.
Snowball and Camel are both very powerful.
He has a strong ability to find his way.
Brought them to Crescent Valley.
Crescent Moon Valley is different from the outside world. Here, birds sing and flowers bloom. There is also a large lake with clear water.
The clouds in the sky are reflected in the lake.
There are some fruit trees and herbs growing by the lake.
Fu Xuanheng now knows a lot of herbs, and he can recognize at a glance that some of them are the ones that Shen Yunyue and the others like.
"Yingfeng, take these herbs away."
"Yes, Master."
When Snowball got here, he disappeared.
I don't know why.
Fu Xuanheng felt very familiar with this place when he arrived.
He walked several steps around the lake.
The clouds in the sky fell down, and the rays of light fell down like a rainbow bridge connecting the sky.
Fu Xuanheng came here unknowingly.
Staring at the sunset glow in a daze.
Then he took a few steps back.
"Yingfeng, bring me the picture I drew."
Shadowwind handed him the parchment.
Fu Xuanheng carefully looked at the pattern on it. He had drawn this pattern based on the jade plaque.
"General Chang, are you familiar with this place?"
General Chang took a look.
Then he pointed to a place covered by trees nearby and said, "Go through here and there should be a small hill."
"Let's go."
Chang Yuan looked around and saw many wolf skulls on the ground.
"Lots of wolf skulls."
Chang Wei seemed to have thought of something and bowed towards the distance.
"This is the final resting place of the Snow Wolf King. I heard that this place is filled with power, the power of the Snow Wolf King."
"It's good for Snowball to be here as a teenager."
"Where's Snowball?"
"Maybe it went to look for its ancestors." Fu Xuanheng replied nonchalantly.
A dozen people continued to move forward.
Fu Xuanheng glanced at the fruits on the tree.
"Pick some fruit to eat."
Several soldiers climbed up the trees, picked the fruit and threw it down. There were even several varieties of melons and watermelons growing on the hillside.
It is midsummer now.
These fruits and vegetables are the best for quenching thirst.
After searching around, I finally returned to the starting point.
Chang Wei looked at the map in surprise, "That's right! Just follow the directions on the map."
"Why are we back to square one?"
Chang Yuan's eyes darkened. "A ghost wall?"
Chang Wei kicked him and kicked him directly into the lake.
Everyone saw Chang Yuan falling into the lake like a parabola.
Yingfeng:…….
Fu Xuanheng raised his head and looked at the lake, but there was no figure.
"General, will the Major General...?"
"Hmph. He's a very good swimmer. Even though he grew up in the North, he still learned to swim."
Chang Wei was not worried.
Fu Xuanheng walked slowly to the lake.
Chang Yuan popped up. "Dad, we found something down there."
“The lake water can lead to other places.”
Fu Xuanheng took off his coat and dived straight in.
Here in the north, many people have difficulty swimming.
Yingfeng and the others know how to do it.
They all jumped down. Chang Wei looked at the man sitting on the shore and sighed:
"If I had known I had to swim, I would have learned it."
Chang Yuan laughed like a pig in the lake.
"Hahaha, Dad. Show everyone your clothes."
Chang Wei really wanted to beat up his eldest son, but the boy was very arrogant in the water.
He shook his fists and thought to himself, "Don't come up here."
Chang Yuan only felt a little wind on the back of his head, and then he quickly closed his mouth as if he had thought of something.
He dived down with a dive.
When you reach the bottom of the lake, there is a whirlpool that sucks people in.
Fu Xuanheng and his companions noticed something different again and found themselves in another place.
"Underground river, this is underground." Yingfeng tied up the wet hem of his clothes.
Fu Xuanheng climbed up the river bank next to him and turned on the waterproof flashlight in his hand.
Except for Chang Yuan, all the people who came down were Fu Xuanheng's men.
After coming up from the underground river, there is a huge open space. Fu Xuanheng walked along the rock wall, and suddenly the stone next to him opened.
A force pulled him in.
Then the rock wall returned to its original state.
Fu Xuanheng arrived at a place and sighed. He should have brought the money-loving Shen Yunyue here.
Absolutely love this place.
There are all kinds of gold, silver and treasures inside.
And some land deeds.
In one of the boxes, she found a letter. This was a letter Yun Wei left for her descendants. She thought to herself that she guessed that her son or grandson would need these assets.
It turned out that Yun Wei discovered something was wrong not long after entering the palace.
But she was pregnant at that time.
Can't bear to leave my own children.
To be on the safe side, she asked her confidant to transfer most of her wealth to the Crescent Valley in the north.
The emperor knew other places, but he didn't know the location of Yunwei Crescent Valley.
Fu Xuanheng held the letter in his hand and couldn't help feeling overwhelmed with emotion.
His grandmother knew he was going to rebel.
Just prepare the army and money for him.
Fu Xuanheng collected some land deeds.
Then he took out a military book.
He took a deep look at the jewels all over the cave and came to a mural nearby.
Turned out from there.
It turns out that only Yun Wei's descendants can enter the cave.
Yingfeng and his companions were extremely anxious, but they just couldn't find the entrance to this place.
Still like a headless fly.
Fu Xuanheng has come out.
"Shadow Wind."
"Master, are you okay?"
Fu Xuanheng raised the things in his hand and sealed them in the bag he brought with him.
"It's alright. Got what I took."
Snowball came out from nowhere.
Yingfeng walked over and rolled up a few snowballs. "Where did you come from?"
Snowball grinned and rubbed against Fu Xuanheng a few times.
Fu Xuanheng touched Snowball's head.
"Let's go."
Several people left here together.
Reached the other side.
Chang Wei saw what Fu Xuanheng was holding and smiled with relief. "Master, let's go back."
When I go back, I have to prepare for the next step.
"Um."
The journey back was relatively smooth.
Everyone took away a lot of fruits and herbs from Crescent Valley.
Chang Wei discovered that the fruits in Crescent Valley seemed to be better than those outside, and he would not get tired easily after eating them.
Arrived in the north.
Fu Xuanheng and Chang Wei began to plan the next step. "First, stabilize the northern border. I've already sent a letter to Yaowang Valley to send a military doctor."
"You should regularly send a few trusted confidants to Crescent Moon Valley to pick fruits and herbs."
"Snowball has found a fellow of his kind, and he will be here with you."
As for Chang Yuan?
Fu Xuanheng asked him to lead 30,000 people towards the capital.
Capture Jincheng.
Chang Wei touched his chin and put forward some suggestions.
…….
In the Yunheng Teahouse in Yonghe Town.
Shen Yunyue was sitting in a private room on the second floor of the teahouse.
I watched people walking on the street outside. Downstairs, a storyteller passionately recounted the story of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
She specifically asked Manager Yu to find out that a group of unidentified people had recently been detained in Yonghe Town.
