Chapter 72 Qu Bingyu's Abnormality
To Qu Chu's question, Su Yingxue replied:
"Yeah, I was surprised when I heard it at the beginning. I asked those medicine merchants repeatedly, and they swore that it was true. Originally, I wanted to tell you, but then I thought you didn't lead the army anyway, so I didn't say it."

Su Yingxue is such a person.

She herself does not care about any national affairs, nor is she interested.She only paid attention to something related to Qu Chu in the past.

Qu Chu thought for a while, then turned to Ning Youbei and said, "Come here."

Ning Youbei quickly took a few steps forward and walked to the other side of Qu Chu.

"Ying Xue said that she heard from the medicinal materials merchants in the Jianghuai area that this year the price of goods in the Jianghuai area has risen particularly sharply. The medicinal materials have increased by [-]%, and the grain has increased even more. Have you heard of it?"

Ning Youbei was startled, "I haven't heard of it, I'm afraid Brother Huang doesn't know about it either."

Now it is September, if the price has risen as much as Su Yingxue said, but the emperor has not heard the news, it can only mean that the Jianghuai area has already been controlled by others.

Jianghuai is the main source of tax revenue for the imperial court. If Jianghuai becomes the private domain of some people, it is really...

Ning Youbei asked Su Yingxue: "Master Su, what else did you hear?"

Su Yingxue said proudly, "What else can I hear? I'm not an imperial court official. What are you worrying about?"

Ning Youbei was not angry at being choked by Su Yingxue.However, he couldn't stay still.

"Ah Chu, I'm going to the palace now, you just stay at the General's Mansion and wait for me to pick you up."

Qu Chu nodded.

After Ning Youbei left, Su Yingxue asked, "Is this serious? I rarely see the King of Chu so nervous."

"Yes, most people think that the rise in prices is a problem of currency issuance or circulation. Although ordinary people suffer from it, it can still be reduced through some policy adjustments. But in fact..."

Having said that, Qu Chu stopped.

Su Yingxue poked Qu Chu, motioning for her to continue.

Su Yingxue doesn't care much about state affairs, but she likes to talk and chat with Qu Chu.

Qu Chu said in a different way: "When do you think it is particularly necessary to hoard food and medicinal materials?"

Su Yingxue thought for a while: "A disaster year?"

Qu Chu nodded.

"But there are no disasters now? There have been no floods, droughts, or snowstorms in the past few years. Could someone predict natural disasters? There will be disasters next year?"

Qu Chu was noncommittal.

Su Yingxue still couldn't believe it.

"Then this person is too good, right? He can predict the future."

When saying these words, Qu Bingyu came.

Seeing that there were only two people left, she asked, "Where is King Chu?"

Su Yingxue curled her lips, "He went to the palace to find the emperor for the natural disaster that might happen next year."

"Impossible? There will be no natural disasters next year."

Qu Bingyu blurted out.

Qu Chu and Su Yingxue looked at her together.

Qu Bingyu hastily concealed: "I mean, looking at such a good year, how could there be a natural disaster?"

In order to divert attention, Qu Bingyu asked again: "What made the king of Chu misunderstand?"

Qu Chu and Su Yingxue really ignored Qu Bingyu's strangeness.Su Yingxue said: "I was the one who mentioned the sharp increase in food and medicinal materials in the Jianghuai area, and the King of Chu left."

Qu Bingyu said: "Could it be that someone wants to start a war? So they started buying food and medicinal materials?"

Qu Bingyu didn't understand these things at first, but she had experienced such things before her rebirth.

At the beginning, the price of food and medicinal materials in the Jianghuai area first increased, and finally spread to Yudu, and then there was turmoil in Nanshu, and then there was news that Nanyi and Nantuo tribes united to attack Dayu.

It's a pity that Qu Bingyu didn't know what the final outcome was.Because by then she was dead.

However, these things that happened before the rebirth all happened a few years later, wouldn't it be earlier in this life?
Thinking of this, Qu Bingyu panicked.

In the previous life, Ah Chu's identity as a woman was not exposed, and she had always led the army in the north, but in this life, Ah Chu's identity as a woman was exposed, and she was confiscated by the emperor.

Could it be because of this that the war was brought forward?

Qu Bingyu looked at Qu Chu in panic, and it happened that Qu Chu also looked at him.

Qu Chu didn't expect Qu Bingyu to understand this.

She was just worried that someone was preparing food and medicinal materials for the upcoming war, but such things were just guesses, and there was no evidence to prove this, so she couldn't say it casually.

Unexpectedly, Qu Bingyu would think of her together.

She suddenly remembered what Qu Bingyu said before, "There will be no natural disasters next year." Could it be that Bingyu has learned divination and deduction?

I think my master knew these things before, but I couldn't learn them without the talent in this area.Could it be that Bingyu learned it quietly?
Qu Chu decided to ask Bingyu later.

……

When the three of them were drinking, Qu Bingyu was always out of his mind. Qu Chu made up his mind to ask her later, so he is not in a hurry now.

Su Yingxue noticed the abnormality and poked Qu Chu, "Is something wrong with Sister Bingyu?"

Qu Chu nodded.

Su Yingxue and Qu Bingyu haven't reached the point where they can talk about everything, so it's hard to get to the bottom of it.She said to Qu Chu, "wait a minute, I'll give you something nice."

After speaking, Su Yingxue got up and left.

Seeing that there were only two people, Qu Chu asked Qu Bingzhu: "Have you learned divination or deduction?"

Qu Bingyu looked at Qu Chu with panic, she didn't learn divination or deduction, she only knew something because of her rebirth.If she told Ah Chu the truth, would Ah Chu regard her as a monster?

Seeing Qu Bingyu's terrified expression, Daxing's eyes were full of helplessness, and Qu Chu couldn't bear to force her anymore.

"Bingyu, it doesn't matter if you learn it, but the master said that divination and deduction are the most labor-intensive, and the secrets of heaven must not be revealed. Every time you use it, you will pay for it with your lifespan and health.

So I don't want you to fall into this path, I hope you are healthy and happy! "

"Ah Chu..."

Qu Bingyu opened her mouth several times, but finally she still didn't have the courage to speak out.

Qu Chu sighed, forget it!

Bingyu has always had such a temper since she was a child, she always looks forward and backward when things happen, so I don't want to force her anymore.She can speak whenever she wants.

……

Su Yingxue came in with a box.

She put the jade box in front of Qu Chu: "Open it and have a look."

Qu Chu opened the box, and a blood-red fruit appeared in front of his eyes.

Chiyang fruit?
Qu Chu was looking for a chance to ask Ying Xue if she still had Chiyang fruit last night, but she didn't expect that she would give it to herself today.

"For King Chu?"

"I only have this one left, and you can give it to whoever you want."

Qu Chu was not polite to her either, "Thank you."

Su Yingxue was rather interested, "What are you going to do to the King of Chu?"
