Chapter 217: Raising Food and Grass for the Battle



Chapter 217: Raising Food and Grass for the Battle

After waking up this time, Jiang Jiu felt uncomfortable.

He lay in bed for another two days and finally recovered after taking the medicine given by Chu Yu.

Chu Yu checked Jiang Jiu's pulse again and found that as long as she didn't have those messy dreams, she would be in good spirits and full of energy.

Chu Yu went to the Imperial College and found a book from the Western Regions, only to discover that the Western Regions poison, Hate Parting, did have sequelae.

The more you think about the past, the more severe the backlash will be. If you want to save your life, it is best not to think about the past.

So, she didn't even discuss it with Zhao Zhuoxi and directly gave Jiang Jiu some sedatives, and waited for her to sleep for two days and get a good rest.

Sure enough, his whole face was radiant.

Chu Yu then wrote a letter to Zhao Zhuoxi to report the situation.

Zhao Zhuoxi was also helpless. It was obvious that she was the resurrection of the dead, so how could he forget about her?

Can a person fall in love with another person over and over again?

The answer is sometimes mysterious.

When Jiang Jiu woke up, he found himself back in the palace and was a little confused for a moment.

"Taohua, didn't I follow His Majesty to fight in Nanli? How come I'm back in the palace?"

Taohua looked distressed: "The princess fainted. This time she fainted for three days. His Majesty was distressed and did not allow the princess to follow him. He asked the princess to rest in the palace and recuperate."

After being unconscious for three days, it was no wonder that Jiang Jiu was so hungry when he woke up.

"That's fine. As long as His Majesty is not in the palace, no one will care about me. Even if I leave the palace, no one will know."

Thinking of this, Jiang Jiu did the same.

In the past, Jiang Jiu always left the palace quietly at night, but now, in broad daylight, Jiang Jiu left in a swagger.

She was right. Without Zhao Zhuoxi, no one in the harem could control her.

The eunuchs, maids, and guards in the palace all knew that even His Majesty treated her very well, so who would dare to find fault with him?

Jiang Jiu didn't go anywhere else this time and went straight home.

At home, Yao Shirong, who had just become the Duke of Zhen, was recuperating. He was supported by a servant and walked and moved slowly in the yard.

Suddenly, Jiang Jiu came back with a surprised look on his face.

"Didn't you go to the war with His Majesty? Why are you back?"

Jiang Jiu pursed his lips and pointed to his head: "I was not feeling well and often fainted, so the emperor sent me back."

Yao Shirong was originally planning to blame her, but when he heard her say that, he immediately became nervous.

"What's going on? Please ask Doctor Yu to come and take a look."

Jiang Jiu paused: "No need, Doctor Yu has already checked it out and said that it will be fine after a few days of rest. He is also taking medicine. Don't worry, father."

Yao Shirong nodded with relief: "It is rumored in the palace that His Majesty is in love with you. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems to be true."

Jiang Jiu's original identity was Yao Qin, who used to be infatuated with the emperor.

It’s just because she is also a face-obsessed person, and the emperor is handsome, so she likes him.

But Jiang Jiu is not very fond of the emperor now, so he doesn't care about the rumors.

Yao Shirong thought for a moment and said, "Since you are in good health, you should still go to Nanli. It will not be easy for Your Majesty to fight in Nanli. It will be better if someone from our Yao family stays there."

Jiang Jiu was puzzled: "Why? Could it be that Nanli's soldiers don't even listen to the emperor's words?"

Yao Shirong frowned and said, "Yes, they are all old soldiers, and some of them are stubborn. If the young soldiers follow them back to the capital, they may

Your Majesty, I will obey your orders."

After the Duke of Zhenguo defeated the Nanli Kingdom, he stayed in the southern border for another ten years.

The past ten years or so have been relatively stable. At the same time, many veterans have taken root in southern Xinjiang, married, had children and started families.

So much so that later, when Duke Zhenguo moved his family back to the capital, many veterans were unwilling to follow him.

But, in reality, they are still Daning's soldiers.

Therefore, when Emperor Zhao Zhuoxi went to southern Xinjiang to fight against Nanli, those veterans also had to participate.

But the emperor did not have a list, so he had no idea how many soldiers there were.

Even the people of the Duke of Zhenguo would deceive their superiors and lie to their subordinates.

But the soldiers of the Duke of Zhenguo would not deceive him.

Now that Duke Zhenguo has passed away, his son cannot go to the war, and there is no one to take care of those soldiers.

Yao Shirong was worried that the Yao family's soldiers would cheat.

When a general is away from the emperor, he may not be able to obey his orders. Even if the emperor goes there in person, he may not be able to command them. They are numerous, with 200,000 troops stationed in southern Xinjiang.

The emperor has just brought a large number of troops with him. Who knows, they might get hot-headed and rebel.

This is what Yao Shirong is most worried about.

Jiang Jiu seemed to understand something.

"Father, so I still have to go to Southern Xinjiang with you?"

Jiang Jiu was not familiar with Southern Xinjiang, but the original owner was familiar with it. She grew up there, and the veterans liked her very much.

The original owner's martial arts and temperament were all inherited from those veterans.

So the original owner was not like an ordinary lady from a wealthy family, weak and timid.

Yao Shirong nodded: "Yes, you have to go and bring the Yao family's keepsake with you."

"Okay." Jiang Jiu also wanted to travel around the south of Daning. It would be more comfortable without anyone to bother him and he would be free.

They were discussing when suddenly, the servant came running over in a hurry.

"Master, Master, something bad has happened. The Crown Prince got into a fight with someone and was taken to the Ministry of Justice..."

"What? This little bastard..." Yao Shirong had just taken two steps forward when he felt a sharp pain in his back and quickly covered his waist.

Jiang Jiu saw this and said, "Dad, don't worry, I'll go take a look."

Yao Shirong had no choice but to agree. He could only get up and take a few steps, and walking was difficult for him. Besides, it was a fight between kids, so how could he, the Duke of Zhen, personally intervene?

Jiang Jiu followed the servant.

"Who did Song'er fight with? Why was he arrested by the Ministry of Justice?"

"With Prime Minister Qin's grandson." The servant spoke quickly, "He almost beat someone to death. The Qin family disagreed, so they sent the child to the Ministry of Justice."

"Lord Wang from the Ministry of Justice is worried, I will come back to report to the Duke as soon as possible."

Jiang Jiu felt his scalp tingling when he heard this.

"Prime Minister Qin? Isn't that your Majesty's uncle?"

It's hard to mess with someone, but you have to mess with his family.

Jiang Jiu took the servant and went straight to the Ministry of Justice without saying a word.

At this time, there were many people surrounding the Ministry of Justice. Although Jiang Jiu didn't know any of them, they all knew her.

When they saw her, it was hard to tell whether the look in their eyes was one of awe or excitement.

Looking at Lord Wang from the Ministry of Justice, looking at the two children on the ground, neither of them could he afford to offend.

Covering my head, I felt a headache and felt helpless.

After looking at Yao Song, he looked at the Qin family's child, who was tied up like a mummy, lying on a stretcher, and sighed again.

This is a really difficult matter to handle, as the Emperor and the Princess have both gone south to fight in the war.

Such a thing happened in the rear.

If the emperor were still alive, he wouldn't care no matter what the verdict was. After all, they were just children. He could just give both sides a beating.

But the emperor and the princess are not here, and the Qin family is so persistent. I don’t know what their real intention is.

Zheng Guogong is ill, so he has to be invited to come.
