Chapter 416 Separation Again
"I won't lie to you." The man's voice was hoarse, and he was still breathing heavily. "I can't bear to lie to you."
Xu Zhichun curled her lips, and a trickle of tenderness flowed through her soft heart, and she finally recovered a little.
Her body felt lighter and she cried out in surprise, but he lifted her up sideways in his arms.
She subconsciously relaxed her body and snuggled into his chest.
The two smiled at each other and kissed.
Sweet and soft.
"Go to sleep. Sleep well every night and wait for me to come back."
"Can you write me a letter? Well, it doesn't have to be long, just to let me know you're safe."
Liang Minglang smiled and said, "I'll find a way."
"We must find a way."
"good"
Liang Minglang smiled, not sure whether he felt helpless or happy. In any case, he really had no way to refuse her.
The two of them lay down, one naturally snuggled into the other's arms, and the other took the opportunity to embrace the other, just right, without any error, and naturally in sync.
The man's strong chest exuded warm heat, and Xu Zhichun's nostrils were filled with his scent. The tingling sensation spread to his limbs and bones, and sank into his heart. Xu Zhichun slowly closed his eyes.
Xu Zhichun originally thought that she would have an uneasy sleep, but she didn't expect that her body recognized his arms more than she thought. In his arms, she slept particularly sweetly and soundly.
So when I woke up, there was no one around me.
She suddenly turned over and sat up. The room was empty and quiet. The sunlight shone through the window sill onto the ground, and there was an inexplicable sense of desolation.
The sounds of the wind and birdsong seemed to have faded away, leaving only her.
At least she knew where he was going.
Xu Zhichun comforted himself in this way.
Feeling lazy and lacking energy, Xu Zhichun still got up and dressed.
The two of them had agreed yesterday to tell others that he was out visiting friends, and she had to act like she was living her life as usual.
"Madam, you're up!"
Nanny Qin Qing smiled and asked Muxiang to bring water for washing her face. She also asked Xu Zhichun what to eat in the morning, whether he wanted to go out today, etc.
Xu Zhichun's eyes gradually brightened, and he smiled and chatted with Nanny Qin Qing about family matters.
The normal atmosphere made her relax unconsciously.
Yes, it should be business as usual.
That man said he wouldn't lie to me, so he'd better do it!
She still has a lot of things to do, how can she have time to think about him all the time? He must have left the county by now? She didn't know when he would arrive at the place he was going.
Liang Minglang entered the city at dawn, first went to see Captain Yu, then met County Magistrate Lu, took a horse from the county government office, and galloped away.
After seven or eight days of keeping calm and composed, another batch of konjac flour was shipped out. It sold very well and was in short supply.
Xu Zhichun expanded the staff of the workshop and purchased konjac. He would collect the konjac from the villagers as long as they dug it up. At the same time, he planned to buy land, reclaim it by the end of the year, and expand konjac cultivation next year.
The business in Loujia Village will also be expanded. If there are not enough people, we will buy some suitable ones or sign some long-term tenants.
Now she doesn't have to do the specific matters herself, Uncle Yang Ming, Xiao An, Xiao Man and others can do it.
She had to find something to do, otherwise she would start to daydream.
It is estimated that the time is almost right. Even if the information transmission was backward in ancient times, major events that could not be covered up would be spread to the state and county levels.
Xu Zhichun took the opportunity of supplying goods to take Nanny Qin Qing to visit the Qin family.
Talking about the hot sales of sun-dried konjac vermicelli, konjac knots, and konjac tofu, Mr. Qin smiled with admiration and sincerity.
He felt that he was very lucky.
"Mrs. Xu can continue to expand her plantings. The demand currently exceeds the supply. Besides, this is edible and can be stored for a long time. It can be shipped to other places for sale, so there's no need to worry about it being unsold."
"There's no need to worry even if someone else can do it someday, especially since no one else can do it except Madam Xu now."
Xu Zhichun smiled and nodded: "Master Qin and I have the same idea, and we are making arrangements."
Master Qin was overjoyed and laughed heartily: "Great, great, I knew Madam Xu would be able to think of that, haha!"
Xu Zhichun smiled: "Everything else is fine. I'm just worried about the possibility of sales being blocked."
"No, no, don't worry, Madam Xu! They'll sell very well."
"That's not what I meant. What if the trade routes are blocked for some other reason and the goods can't be sold?"
"The trade route is blocked?"
Master Qin was stunned for a moment and sent the servants away. Only Madam Qin and Nanny Xi were left. Master Qin lowered his voice and said, "Madam Xu also knows about it? Prince Yuchang's rebellion."
Xu Zhichun knew that he had guessed right.
Mr. Qin has a prosperous business and a wide circle of friends. How could a businessman not be well-informed?
She wanted to know more about Prince Yuchang's rebellion and his fight against the imperial court, and the best channel was Master Qin.
Xu Zhichun smiled bitterly, "I overheard a few vague words, and I don't know whether they are true or not. I feel uneasy."
Master Qin sighed.
Xu Zhichun is now a well-known figure in the local area. Naturally, she has her own information channels and useful interpersonal relationships. It is not surprising that she knows about this matter.
Mr. Qin was full of admiration and praised sincerely: "To be honest, I haven't thought about this yet. It's Madam Xu who is thoughtful and prepared for the future. She actually thought so far ahead. But it shouldn't be a big deal, right? How can such a big court not have some ability? I believe this matter will be settled soon. Besides, our Xijiang Province is not the fiefdom of King Yuchang. Although it is adjacent, it is a long way from our county town. We can rest assured. At least for the next six months, everything should be fine."
As for things further in the future, it depends on the ability of the court.
Master Qin still has considerable confidence in the imperial court.
Xu Zhichun nodded and smiled: "Hearing what Master Qin said, I feel relieved!"
She took the opportunity to ask a lot of questions about Prince Yuchang and the court.
Mr. Qin actually knew something. At this sensitive moment, if someone asked him, Mr. Qin would just laugh it off and would not elaborate.
But Xu Zhichun has a close relationship with the Qin family and is almost a member of the family, so Mr. Qin naturally did not hide it from her.
With the previous preparation, Master Qin didn't think there was anything wrong with her asking about this, and he told her everything without hesitation.
Xu Zhichun nodded from time to time, and his heart, which had been anxious for several days, gradually calmed down.
Although the Empress Dowager favors the youngest son, and the Emperor has to be tolerant and yield from time to time due to filial piety, the Emperor is not confused. Now the truth is revealed. If the Empress Dowager continues to be partial and uses filial piety to pressure others, no one can blame the Emperor even if he does not listen to her.
How many princes succeeded in their rebellion?
Her Minglang is so capable, and that General Xie sounds very capable too, so Minglang will definitely be successful.
