The only person who could have sent the letter in this way was Feng Susu. When Su Wenyue received the letter, she found a code printed on it that looked random but could be recognized by her. Because the identities of both parties were sensitive, they had agreed to write the letter in this way for safety reasons. Even if the letter fell into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, it would not pose a hidden danger.
It's not that Han Yu and Su Wenyue are overly suspicious. In the current situation, there are too many people who want to catch them. General An has the same idea. After all, the two are not in the same camp. So even when Feng Susu and her son returned to General An, they did so in a low-key and inconspicuous way, even though General An was very excited to find his wife and children.
Su Wenyue did not delay and immediately opened the letter to check the contents. Mrs. An sent the letter in such an urgent manner, so it must be something urgent, and it might be related to what she was worried about.
"How is it? What did Mrs. An say in the letter? Is there any reminder?" Han Yu obviously thought of what Su Wenyue thought of. If he could really get news from Mrs. An, he could make arrangements early. Even if Mrs. An did not have accurate information, she could give him some indirect information for him to make a judgment.
Su Wenyue handed the letter directly to Han Yu. In addition to some words of concern and family matters, the content of the letter indeed mentioned the affairs of the court, and also vaguely mentioned the intentions of the court and the ideas of General An, and even asked Han Yu and Su Wenyue to make preparations in advance.
Although General An had no intention of getting involved in the struggle between the court and Liu Xiu's brothers, he was an old general in the court after all, and it was easy for him to get some news and rumors, which were obviously unfavorable to Liu Xiu, and Han Yu was now following Liu Xiu. Out of Su Wenyue's life-saving grace to his wife and children, and his admiration for Han Yu, a young man, General An took the risk to remind Han Yu. In fact, General An didn't quite understand why Han Yu wanted to join Liu Xiu when he had such strength. Even if he didn't set up his own faction, he could have joined other powerful people. Liu Xiu was definitely not the best choice, but Han Yu had made up his mind and refused to turn back, so all he could do was to remind him a few times.
"Husband, it seems that the court can no longer hold back and wants to take action. What should we do? With our strength, we are not yet able to compete with the court." Su Wenyue's face was full of worry. Although she knew that Liu Xiu ascended the throne in her previous life and Han Yu also sat in a position above everyone else, it was not so easy to actually experience it. Moreover, she was worried that many things would change because of her rebirth. In her previous life, Han Yu was still an unknown little figure, so they didn't need to worry about these things.
"Don't worry, I will arrange it. You stay at home and I will go to make some arrangements. Also, I have to go to Liu's house to discuss some things with Brother Liu." Han Yu comforted his wife and went out immediately. Although this incident was a crisis for them, Han Yu saw more than that. If used well, it would be a great opportunity. Liu Xiu could not fully trust him, which was not a good thing for him. It was also a taboo for military strategists. If generals could not trust each other wholeheartedly, it would give enemies and opponents opportunities to take advantage.
Seeing Han Yu busy, Su Wenyue also wanted to help, but she was really powerless to deal with the things outside. Even if she lived another life, she was just an ordinary woman and did not have the ambition and desire like Chen Li. However, although she could not participate in Han Yu's affairs outside, she was not powerless. Her experience in her previous life made her know that there was one most important thing, and that was food. It was the foundation and support of everything. Without food, everything else was empty talk.
Although food is in short supply now and everyone knows its importance, they can never imagine how precious food will be in the future. When food is most scarce, it will even be more precious than gold.
There have been many wars and disasters throughout the dynasties, but food was far from being so precious. The reason for this was that there was a treacherous prime minister who claimed to be a savior but had determination but no ability and could not see the facts clearly, and who controlled the court. The war and man-made disasters were sandwiched together, making the people's lives in misery.
It happened that at this time Xiaoxi came over from the farm to report things to Su Wenyue, so Su Wenyue passed the matter down. If there was a change in Yiyang Prefecture, the farm might also be implicated. She couldn't put all her eggs in one basket, and she only trusted Xiaoxi to handle such a secret and important matter. Fortunately, Xiaoxi was becoming more and more capable and could do everything she asked.
When Xiaoxi heard Su Wenyue's order, she knew the situation was serious and couldn't help but worry: "Madam, has anything changed over there? I heard that the court is going to send troops to fight against the rebels. When the army presses on the city, the situation will be bad. Madam, why don't you take the young master and the young lady out to hide, so that the master can focus on his work outside. I will definitely take good care of you, the young master and the young lady."
Su Wenyue knew that Xiaoxi was worried about her. This maid was so loyal in both her past and present lives, and always thought of her master first. However, Su Wenyue still refused: "No need. My husband and I are one and cannot be separated. Besides, things are far from being that dangerous. My husband will make arrangements for me and the children. If there is really a need, I will send someone to notify you."
Xiaoxi knew her master's temper. What he said was a decision, and it was useless for her to persuade him. She had no choice but to do what her master asked first. However, she would also make arrangements for a retreat, just in case. If her master really sent someone to notify her, she would not be completely unprepared.
Here, Han Yu and Su Wenyue were both busy preparing for what was about to happen.
Chen Li came out of Liu's house with a gloomy and angry face. She had to endure it in front of Liu Xiu just now, but now she couldn't bear it anymore. Liu Xiu, this ungrateful hypocrite, actually threatened her like this. Did he think that he could make her compromise? Don't even think about it!
How could Chen Li, a person who would compromise with reality? Even if she compromised on the surface, she would definitely try her best to achieve her goal in secret. Liu Xiu now has the support of the Su family, so he treats her like this indifferently. If she wants Liu Xiu to completely side with her, she must let Liu Xiu ask for something.
Chen Li thought carefully about what happened in history. Although many things have changed now, the big things have not changed. So there are still things that can be learned from history, right? It must be said that Chen Li is a powerful woman. She can even think the same as Su Wenyue.
