Chapter 206: Finding a House
At this point, no matter how many reasons she gave, Chu Shiheng would not believe it.
Moreover, things like food and fodder cannot be explained with just a few words of my own.
So Yu Mengqing simply gave up and directly admitted that she had food.
"Yourself?" Chu Shiheng asked in disbelief.
What exactly happened in this year?
No, I should say, what did she do?
Why is there so much food?
These questions kept appearing in Chu Shiheng's mind, knocking on his head over and over again.
Facing Chu Shizheng's puzzled eyes, Yu Mengqing didn't want to explain too much to him.
The food and grass in her space are now inexhaustible. She can just find an open space to put them out.
She also knew that others might not mind what she said, but Chu Shiheng would definitely be suspicious.
As early as when he went to the Ghost Seven Gang, he knew that Xiao Hei was with him.
Now that he has easily obtained so much food and supplies, any normal person would be suspicious, right?
What’s more, he is a man as profound as Chu Shiheng?
But since he didn't ask her, Yu Mengqing didn't intend to explain too much to him.
When the time is right, she will naturally explain to him.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing said to Zeng Zhaoming again: "Go and call Caiyue over. I need to talk to her about something."
"Yes, Princess!"
After a while, Caiyue walked straight towards the military tent.
"Miss, you're looking for me?"
"Well, I want you to find me a spacious house in Southwest County. It needs to be windproof and waterproof, and it needs to be private. Also, it's best not to let too many people know about it."
Yu Mengqing Caiyue ordered.
She would only feel at ease if she let Caiyue and the others do this matter.
"House?" Caiyue asked curiously.
Isn’t Southwest County where the general’s mansion is located?
According to her understanding, the general's mansion is large enough for people to live in.
Moreover, when the young prince and the little princess grew up, they might have already returned to Beijing.
Caiyue didn't understand. What happened to this young lady who usually didn't like to make trouble today?
And the house I'm looking for now seems to be completely useless.
If they were in the same Southwest County, Caiyue couldn't figure out what to do after finding this house.
Anyway, it can't be used for living.
Because the general's mansion they live in now can be said to be a very nice house in the southwest.
Seeing Caiyue's expression, Yu Mengqing knew what she was thinking, so she explained:
"Yes, that's the house I'm looking for, but I'm not going to live in it, I'm going to use it to store things. Just look for it according to my requirements."
After hearing this, Caiyue nodded in understanding, "Okay, I'll go now."
After saying this, he quickly left the military tent.
She will go to war tomorrow, so she must find the house today.
After the last battle, Caiyue is obviously more experienced in this war.
But the young lady hasn't told her about the expedition yet, so I guess that means she has agreed to go, right?
That's right, although she didn't make much contribution in the last battle, she did help a lot after all.
After everyone left, Chu Shiheng asked, "Where are your food supplies stored now?"
"In my heart!" Yu Mengqing replied immediately.
Chu Shiheng: “…”
In fact, even if Yu Mengqing didn't say it, she knew that the house she asked Caiyue to find was used to store food and fodder.
But she was very curious about where her food and supplies were now.
Why the sudden change of location?
Is it unsafe to leave it in its original place?
Chu Shiheng really wanted to know all these.
But he knew Yu Mengqing didn't want to talk about it, nor did he want to force her, so he changed the subject and continued:
"Regarding the matter of food and fodder, my suggestion is to keep it secret for the time being. It's enough for you and me to know about it, and it shouldn't be shared with too many people."
Yu Mengqing raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that he had the same idea as her.
She hadn't originally planned to make this matter public, not even to tell Chu Shiheng.
If the people in the kitchen hadn't asked about it today, she would have planned to keep the whole matter to herself.
Moreover, once this matter is made public, it will certainly arouse everyone's suspicion.
With so much food and supplies, she couldn't find any good reason to explain this matter for a moment.
"What are your plans?" Yu Mengqing asked.
Since Chu Shiheng said so, Yu Mengqing was very curious about what he was thinking.
"It's no secret that the Great Xia Kingdom has always had an empty treasury and is plagued by internal and external troubles. From what I know about Yang Zangzi, he won't confront us head-on after knowing I'm back, but he will definitely do something else."
"For safety reasons, the fewer people who know about this, the better. If necessary, we have to act as if we have no food or supplies, so that Man Jingzi can relax his vigilance." Chu Shiheng said.
Hearing this, Yu Mengqing subconsciously raised the corners of her lips.
Could she say that they were thinking the same thing again?
Of course, apart from this, the most important thing is that she has no better reason to explain.
So she never thought of publicizing the fact that she had food and supplies.
Even when Caiyue was asked to find a house just now, it was just to find a house, and there was no mention of storing food and fodder.
And the house she requested was one with better privacy.
From this point, it can be seen that she did not want others to know about the matter of food and fodder.
Including Caiyue who has always been by her side.
The military camp of the Manjing State.
After dealing with Ou Shanggu, Yang Zangzi went to find the national teacher Qi Daozhen as soon as possible.
I heard that he was coming back today, but I don’t know if he has arrived yet.
Qi Daozhen was not in the military camp during this battle because it was the anniversary of his deceased master's death and he went to pay his respects.
Unexpectedly, he left for several months, and the three brothers were like losing their left and right arms, running around like headless flies.
Now that I think about it, they really can't live without this person.
The main reason is that Qi Daozhen is not only an extraordinary strategic person, but also an expert in medicine.
If he had been waiting at the gate of the military camp early as usual, with his medical skills, he would have been able to save his third brother Yang Muzi.
This incident happened to Qi Daozhen. If it was another military doctor who failed to save him in time, Yang Zangzi would definitely not forgive him.
But if it were Qi Daozhen, no matter how angry he was, he would swallow his anger with broken teeth and blood.
Without this person, they could not compare with the Great Xia Kingdom in terms of strategy or medical skills.
Fortunately, their Manjing Kingdom had strong soldiers and horses, and a sufficient treasury, which could provide them with enough food and fodder.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to recover from the battle lost today.
