Chapter 432: Uprising
Happy days are always exceptionally short.
On the afternoon when Zhanchuan and Luo Xiaoshan arrived in Dongwang Village, Liao Lin went to the village and called the Mengbei brothers back to Zhou's house.
This time, Zhou Yunshu met Luo Xiaoshan, Zhan Chuan and others in the main hall in the backyard. He Nian Zhang and Lu Zongping vaguely knew that something was going to happen, but they were guests from afar, so all they could do was to tell their son to interact more with the Zhou family's children.
Well, that is if the children are willing to listen to them.
In addition to Zhan Chuan and others, Zhou Yunzhi also gathered in the main hall.
Zhou Yunjia teaches in the front yard. Once the Zhou family's amnesty comes down, Zhou Yunjia will immediately take part in the imperial examination.
Ji Sheng said that he would hold the imperial examination in advance in the territory of Great Zhou as soon as the situation stabilized a little.
One is to quickly fill the missing officials in the court and cultivate new blood for the new dynasty; the other is to tell the world that although the Great Zhou is now suffering from natural disasters and man-made disasters, the power of the court is always there and it will not be destroyed so easily.
Zhou Yunshu didn't want Zhou Yunjia to miss this opportunity, miss this opportunity to enter the court legitimately.
"We can't delay any longer. Tomorrow morning, Uncle Yan will take Xiaoshan, Mengbei and the others to Anshan."
Zhou Yunshu originally wanted to let Manager Liang or Uncle He go with them, but Yuncheng also needed a lot of people, so in the end it had to be them.
"Yes!" Yan Shilei and others responded in unison.
They had known about this matter for a long time. This time they came to Dongchuan just to take a short rest and bring Luo Xiaoshan, the person who actually knew where the Anshan Iron Mine was.
After Zhou Yunshu finished explaining this matter, she looked at Zhan Chuan and asked, "How's the military training going?"
"Three thousand elite soldiers, and two thousand can still see blood."
Zhan Chuan was exceptionally gifted at training soldiers. Before, Zhou Yunzhi only needed a little instruction from him and Zhan Chuan could apply what he had learned to other situations.
According to what Zhou Yunzhi said privately to Zhou Yunshu, if Zhan Chuan went to the battlefield, his ability to lead troops would be no less than that of their biological father.
Zhou Yunshu looked at Zhou Yunzhi. She was going back to Yuncheng in a few days. She was now hesitating whether to take her family back to Yuncheng or go back alone.
When Zhou Yunshu looked at him, Zhou Yunzhi said, "The grain here hasn't been harvested yet."
Even if we want to leave, we have to collect all the food here.
The southern part of Haizhou was not peaceful during this period. Zhanchuan and the previously trained people had already resisted four or five waves of bandits.
The elite troops who just fought in Kawaguchi survived these repeated battles.
To be honest, the reason why Dongchuan is relatively safe now is entirely because of the existence of Zhanchuan, the new local boss.
The bandits around were very afraid of this ruthless bandit who was nearly two meters tall and killed people without blinking an eye, so no one dared to come to Dongchuan to rob, but if Zhanchuan left, it would be hard to say.
So what Zhou Yunzhi meant was that even if Zhou Yunshu wanted to take Zhanchuan and even everyone in the Zhou family to Yuncheng, she should at least wait until the food was ripe and there were new people to replace them in Dongchuan before taking action.
Otherwise, it would not be cost-effective to give up Dongchuan, which they have been operating for a long time, for Yuncheng, a place that needs to be redeveloped.
"good."
Dongchuan cannot be given up, but Yuncheng’s geographical location is indeed better than Dongchuan, and Zhou Yunshu is even more unwilling to give up.
"Uncle He."
Uncle He took a step forward when he heard Zhou Yunshu's voice.
"You'll leave with me this time."
"good."
Uncle He had believed in Zhou Yunshu before, and after knowing Xixi's true identity, he was even more devoted to her.
Uncle He felt that his decision to stay with Zhou Yunshu was a wise one, otherwise he would not have the opportunity to soar to the sky at any time like now.
"Mr. Zhou, what about me?" Seeing that they all had their own things to do, Manager Liang couldn't help but ask.
"You continue to collect food, the more the better."
After arriving in Haizhou, Zhou Yunshu not only bought land to grow crops, but also never stopped harvesting crops.
It can be said that most of the money in her space was either turned into military supplies or food.
Only these two things can make her feel safe.
Although Zhan Chuan could not leave with Zhou Yunshu, Zhou Yunshu thought of a way, a way to restore Yuncheng to life as soon as possible.
There is probably nothing that can stimulate the vitality of a city faster than business. As long as there is business, there will always be people coming here.
Since Zhan Chuan cannot immediately follow Zhou Yunshu back to Yuncheng, she can just take the 3,000 trained elite soldiers, and then take He Nian Zhang and Lu Zongping back to Yuncheng.
It doesn't take much time to take a boat from Yuncheng to the middle of the river, so if there is really trade, it will definitely be more convenient than Dongchuan.
After Zhou Yunshu had given all the instructions, Yan Shilei, Zhan Chuan and others left, leaving only Zhou Yunshu and Zhou Yunzhi in the main room.
Zhou Yunshu told Zhou Yunzhi about her plan, and Zhou Yunzhi agreed: "In addition to these two families, the Feng family can also be included."
Feng Xujie is Zhou Yunzhi's real relative. Since Feng Xujie is on the side of the Zhou family, he must of course help Feng Xujie transfer all of the Feng family into his hands.
"Cao Zhengxing is dead, Xixi has ascended the throne, and Feng Kewen's side has long been in turmoil." Zhou Yunzhi said to Zhou Yunshu, "Xiaojie came here this time to ask for our help. Let him take advantage of this opportunity to reunite the previously divided Feng family."
"How does he want us to help him? Even if Xixi ascends the throne, our Zhou family has not been vindicated yet."
Zhou Yunzhi smiled and said, "The moment Xixi ascended the throne, it was only a matter of time before the Zhou family was vindicated."
"Even if it doesn't happen for now, the relationship between you and Xixi cannot be changed by anyone."
Zhou Yunshu raised an eyebrow and looked at her elder brother with understanding. "He wants to use my name to bully others."
Zhou Yunzhi nodded.
"I have no objection. As long as he can do it, I'm happy to see it happen."
After all, it would only be beneficial for the Zhou family if Feng Xujie completely controlled the Feng family.
After Zhou Yunshu finished speaking, Zhou Yunzhi continued, "He doesn't want to take advantage of his relationship with your sister-in-law to get something for nothing from the Zhou family. Xiaojie said that he would offer the secret chamber to the new emperor."
Zhou Yunshu raised her eyes when she heard that.
"During the last few years of the late emperor's reign, the treasury was empty, and Xixi essentially inherited an empty shell."
Zhou Yunzhi looked at Zhou Yunshu and said, "The wealth in the Feng Family Secret Pavilion is even greater than we imagined. It can directly fill up the national treasury."
"Da Zhou needs money, Xixi also needs money, Xiaojie..."
"It's a timely help." Zhou Yunshu said with a smile: "He has really grown."
Feng Xujie offered the secret chamber at this point. Not only the Zhou family had to owe him a favor, but even Ji Sheng and Xixi who were far away in the capital had to owe him a favor.
Although he had no actual merit in following the emperor, but with Feng Xujie's secret cabinet offering, he could legitimately become the first upstart of the new dynasty.
"Yeah." Zhou Yunzhi also sighed.
The pampered young master in my impression has become the head of the family who can make plans to benefit himself and his family.
Just as Zhou Yunshu and Zhou Yunzhi were discussing how to make arrangements, Dong Ge came running with Feng Xujie.
Zhou Yunshu frowned at the panicked look of the two people, "What's wrong?"
"The Prince of Huainan has rebelled!"
"Impossible, King Huainan died in the capital." Zhou Yunshu said without thinking.
"The Prince of Huainan's people have truly rebelled. They claim the new emperor is colluding with the Crown Prince to murder the Prince of Huainan, and they've already launched an uprising!"
