"Damn it, what on earth does Zhou want to do?"
The new emperor was so furious that he smashed many ornaments before he calmed down.
The women in the capital who were used to restrain General Zhou had already fled. If there had not been any news of General Zhou declaring himself king, he would have thought that General Zhou had also rebelled.
He had no doubt that Northern Liao would invade. After all, the Yong Dynasty was in chaos, and attacking at this time would undoubtedly be a small victory with a big one.
The new emperor sat on the dragon throne in silence for a long time before replying, saying that it was difficult to go to the capital and asked General Zhou to understand.
As for Youzhou’s tax grain, since it has not been paid to the higher authorities, just keep it and give it to Zhou’s army.
I only ask them to hold on to Youzhou, not lose the territory of Dayong, and not get involved in the fight for the throne.

In Qingshan Village, a new day arrived. Chi Xingyue came out of the west room, and a yellow leaf happened to fall in front of her.
Chi Xingyue picked it up, looked at it carefully, and found that it was a poplar leaf.
Looking up, the sky was overcast, without a single ray of sunshine. The wind was blowing, and it was quite cold.
I went to the small kitchen to eat some food, and just as I walked out of the yard, I saw Grandma Liu and the young people knitting sweaters.
Chi Xingyue asked, "Why are you here so early? It's so windy this morning, aren't your hands cold?"
Grandma Liu smiled and said, "It's okay. We are used to it. It's not cold!"
Chi Xingyue nodded: "If it's cold, tell Erzhu and we can light a few braziers."
As for why they were not invited into the house, of course it was inconvenient.
Even if there are 10 to 20 people who can fit into the room, they will have to occupy the space on the kang and the carved bed.
She doesn't like it and isn't used to it.
Unfortunately, when the house was built, there was no main hall or anything like that, otherwise there would be a place to entertain them.
Fortunately, the cold only lasted for a while. The temperature rose in the middle of the morning and everyone's fingers became more nimble.
Huang Yingying got off the carriage and heard laughter in the yard before she even entered the house.
He walked in with a curious look on his face and explained his purpose to everyone.
Aunt Taohua trotted to the backyard and called Chi Xingyue, who then slowly came over and welcomed Huang Yingying and Yun Miao behind her into the west wing.
Still using the previous configuration, hanging the knitted sweater on the hanger looks both high-end and textured.
Huang Yingying was so dazzled by the sight that she even tried on two pieces.
Finally, I chose a light blue long sweater and wore it without taking it off.
Chi Xingyue didn't say anything. She took the money, prepared some tea and snacks for the two of them, and chatted with them until noon before sending them away.
The carriage slowly drove away. Chi Xingyue met Yun Miao's curious and puzzled eyes, smiled and nodded.
He didn't come back until he could no longer see anything. He asked Baozhu to cut mooncakes for Aunt Liu and the others as a halftime treat.
When Huang Yingying returned to the county and got off the car, she was met with everyone's envious gazes.
This sweater has beautiful colors and fits Huang Yingying's figure perfectly.
It looks ordinary at first glance, but a closer look reveals exquisite curves outlined in its softness.
It is a piece of clothing that is not ostentatious but can show off one's advantages.
In the next few days, more and more people came to Qingshan Village to buy clothes.
Chi Xingyue's sweaters were sold out in large quantities, and soon there were only a few left in stock.
Finally, Chi Xingyue left some wool for everyone to knit into scarves and gloves.
On the day when the wages were settled, they were distributed to Aunt Liu and the others.
They were so moved that they burst into tears and kept saying that Chi Xingyue was a good person.
Chi Xingyue smiled and politely sent the person away.
Then he delivered the sweaters specially prepared for the family members to each room, rested for an afternoon, and called Ling Jiheng to go up the mountain the next day.
It was also a blessing from God. It rained a little last night, and the sun came out in the morning.
The mountains were covered with a thin layer of mist, making the yellow and green colors look a little blurry.
Not long after Chi Xingyue walked, he saw wild mushrooms.
Reach out, pick them off, place them in the basket, and continue.
When the fog cleared, the two men came to the river, caught some river shrimps, and caught a rabbit in the woods before slowly returning home.
As a result, they ran into Aunt Mai Miao who was picking herbs on the road. Aunt Mai Miao raised something in her hand and said excitedly to Chi Xingyue, "Xingyue, look, I found Ganoderma lucidum!"
Chi Xingyue walked closer and found that it was true.
"Congratulations, Aunt Mai Miao! This Ganoderma lucidum can be sold for a lot of money!"
Zhang Maimiao put the Ganoderma lucidum in the basket and said with a smile, "I have been searching for half a year and finally found one like this.
If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known this thing was valuable.
What are you having for lunch? Why don’t you come to my aunt’s house and have a seat?”
Chi Xingyue declined politely: "Thank you, Aunt Mai Miao, but my family helped make it, so let's do it another day!"
"Okay, you guys go shopping. I'm going home first. Let's go mushroom picking together some other time!"
Chi Xingyue nodded, watched the other person go away, and then went down the mountain with Ling Jiheng humming a little tune.
Hiding in an empty bush on the way, Chi Xingyue picked a dozen persimmons, two handfuls of winter dates, and a few small apples from the space and put them in the basket.
Then he covered it with two thick layers of leaves and asked Ling Jiheng to carry it down the mountain.
Not long after, the two arrived home.
Chi Xingyue pushed the leaves aside and successfully heard everyone's cheers.
The old lady asked Aunt Taohua to take it down and wash it. When it was served, it was eaten up in the blink of an eye.
***
Time passed and the weather became colder.
On the Double Ninth Festival, Fu Huanping came over and called Ling Jiheng into the study as soon as he entered the room, and asked the soldiers behind him to bring out the sweet potatoes.
"Master Ling, have the sweet potatoes from Qingshan Village been harvested? How is the yield?"
