Seeing Ye Xiaotian's confidence, Wei Cunqing was also infected by him.
"Uncle! What do you need me to do? Please assign me some work. I don't want to be a useless person! I can also help you, uncle." Wei Cunqing was full of fighting spirit.
They were going back to Kyoto, so naturally he had to do his best.
Ye Xiaotian glanced at Wei Cunqing. What could Wei Cunqing do?
It is impossible to let Wei Cunqing take the lead.
The vanguard is the most dangerous, and Wei Cunqing has no experience. It is impossible for him to give such an important position to Wei Cunqing.
Let Wei Cunqing be responsible for collecting and transporting food and fodder.
"Okay! Then I will give you a task. Collect enough food and supplies before New Year's Eve! We are going to Kyoto, so we must have enough food and supplies! Do you understand?" Ye Xiaotian gave Wei Cunqing an important task.
Without food, the army's morale is unstable. No matter how brave and good at fighting his Ye family army is, they are also human beings. How can they survive without food?
If we can’t even guarantee our survival, how can we have the mind to fight?
Therefore, we must have enough food and supplies!
Wei Cunqing knelt on one knee and accepted the order, "Uncle, don't worry, I will complete the task!"
When preparing food and supplies, he thought of someone!
Doesn’t Liu Qin have a space that can store a million stones of grain?
He can borrow it, but he doesn't know if he can use this space.
He still couldn't figure out how Liu Qin activated this so-called space.
At this moment, Liu Qin has opened a clinic in Raozhou. She invited two old doctors in the city to take charge of the clinic. When she is not in Raozhou in the future, the clinic can be handed over to the two old doctors to run.
She didn't spend much time seeing patients, and most of her time was spent making her wound medicine.
She didn't expect Wei Cunqing to come to the clinic to find her.
"Seventh brother? Why are you here?" Liu Qin looked left and right, as if observing whether he was following Wei Cunqing.
Wei Cunqing was amused by her, "Alright! No one is following me! Besides, even if someone is following me, it doesn't matter. I'm just here to see the doctor. They won't guess that I'm here to see you."
Liu Qin thought about it and agreed!
But why did Wei Cunqing come? She didn't look for Wei Cunqing.
"Qin'er, my uncle plans to leave for Kyoto after the New Year. Before that, we need to stock up on food and fodder. Can you lend me your space?" Wei Cunqing stated his purpose directly.
Liu Qin: ...
Wei Cunqing had a perfect idea and even wanted to borrow her space!
Only she can open her space, and there is no way to lend it to Wei Cunqing.
Liu Qin shook her head: "No! I am the only one who can open the space, I can't lend it to you."
Hearing this, Wei Cunqing felt a little disappointed. He guessed that it would not be so smooth.
He should just stock up on food.
"But Seventh Brother! If you want to collect food and grass, I can go with you. Most of the food and grass can be placed in my space, and a small part of it can be used to hide from others. What do you think?" Liu Qin suggested.
She also had to make some contributions and preparations for going to Kyoto, otherwise, she would really become someone who took advantage of Wei Cunqing.
Wei Cunqing pondered for a moment, then asked, "What about Hong'er and the others? Don't you need to take care of them?"
"Hong'er is studying in the academy now, and Rou'er is taken care of by Qiu Ning. What's more, there are nannies and maids in the mansion who can take care of Hong'er and the others. I don't have to worry." Liu Qin explained.
Now she goes out early and comes back late. Lin Yuehong and Lin Yuerou are both very well-behaved and do not need her to accompany them all the time.
Lin Yuerou is very attached to Jiang Qiuning now. Lin Yuerou is much closer to Jiang Qiuning than to her aunt.
It was hard for her to imagine that they would become rivals in love in the future.
In the original novel, Jiang Qiuning and Lin Yuerou had no intersection, so they were in the harem together but had no contact with each other.
Things are different now. Jiang Qiuning and Lin Yuerou knew each other in advance.
They have a deep bond and they shouldn't become rivals in love in the future.
"Okay! Then let's go together to collect food and supplies. However, you have to disguise yourself as my servant so that you won't attract attention." Wei Cunqing reminded.
They were a group of men going to do business, and it was inconvenient to bring Liu Qin, a woman, with them. She had to disguise herself and pretend to be a servant to follow him.
Liu Qin nodded in agreement: "I understand! Why are we leaving?"
"Let's wait for two days. We should do this as soon as possible. The sooner we prepare, the better our chances of winning." Wei Cunqing planned.
He planned to set off early so as to raise as much money as possible.
…
Two days later, Liu Qin, dressed in men's clothes, was waiting for Wei Cunqing at the city gate.
Not long after, Wei Cunqing arrived with his men.
There were sixteen of them in their group, one in a horse-drawn carriage and the rest in carts.
Wei Cunqing took Liu Qin to the carriage and asked, "Are Hong'er and the others settled? Will they make any noise?"
"Don't worry! Hong'er is a sensible child. He will help take care of Rou'er. Besides, I have bought a new maid! This maid's identity is not ordinary!" Liu Qin was about to reveal Jiang Qiuning's identity to Wei Cunqing.
With Jiang Qiuning in hand, their journey to Kyoto would be smoother.
Recently, she also heard that the imperial court sent people to eliminate Ye Xiaotian and his men.
The person sent by the court was Gu Sanzhong, who was the cousin of Concubine Yao and a member of the Yao family.
He would not turn sides and side with Ye Xiaotian.
However, Gu Sanzhong was a civil official who did not understand military tactics and had never been on the battlefield. The court sent such a person to fight Ye Xiaotian, which was undoubtedly a death wish.
Who is Ye Xiaotian? He is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. Ye Xiaotian went to the battlefield to kill the enemy at the age of seventeen. It has been forty years now. His age in the battlefield is older than Gu Sanzhong's age. Gu Sanzhong is not to be feared.
The person Ye Xiaotian is most worried about should be Jiang He. Although Jiang He is a dozen years younger than Ye Xiaotian, he is also a battle-hardened man. He is a master of military strategy. Ten years ago, he used 100,000 soldiers to fight against Nanyuan's 300,000 troops, defeating the larger force with a smaller one. He completely stopped Nanyuan's plan to move north, and became famous in one battle and was named General Weiyuan.
Jiang He is the person who gives Ye Xiaotian the most headaches, and she can help Ye Xiaotian solve this problem.
"What identity?" Wei Cunqing asked curiously.
How come Liu Qin always meets people of extraordinary status?
How come she is so lucky?
"I'll tell you, but you have to keep it a secret for now. You're not allowed to tell anyone until the critical moment!" Liu Qin asked Wei Cunqing to promise not to reveal Jiang Qiuning's identity until the critical moment.
If he talked nonsense and the people sent by Jiang He found Jiang Qiuning, wouldn't they lose more than they gained?
She wanted to tell Wei Cunqing this news in the hope of helping him make plans to go north.
"Yes! I will keep my mouth shut." Wei Cunqing agreed.
Liu Qin whispered in Wei Cunqing's ear, "She is Jiang Qiuning, the beloved daughter of General Weiyuan Jiang He!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Cunqing's eyes widened. "The daughter of General Weiyuan Jiang He? How...how did she end up in a pawnbroker's shop?"
