Chapter 327 Bad News

On the day of Ximen Ximing's funeral, many people in the street spontaneously saw him off.As soon as Ximen Ximing's funeral was over, the old general Ximen took command and set off. Unfortunately, half a year later, he died in battle.For a while, people panicked.

Xiao Tianbao sits in Xiangcheng, Xiao Ran sits in Luochuan County, and they only keep the surrounding cities safe.The state of Jin is divided into six continents, Danzhou, Chuanzhou, Yuzhou, Luozhou, Qianzhou, and Jinzhou.Shengjing is located in Luozhou. Less than a year after the new emperor ascended the throne, Danzhou once again lost three cities.There was no movement in Qi State for a while, as if they were restraining Xiao Tianbao.Because Chuanzhou is close to Tang, Chu, and Qianyue, it was the most severely damaged. Now only Luochuan County is left, and the surrounding cities near Luochuan County still belong to the territory of Jin. They were divided up, including Dan County and Qinchuan City, the prefectural cities of Chuanzhou.Shengjing completely lost contact with Danzhou and Chuanzhou, and the princes and states entered the territory of Jin state majestically.

"Now all the princes and nations want to jump up and bite." Ning Shun'an said sadly.

"People are knives and I am fish!" Lin Qiaoqiao said.

At this time, Lin Yan and his party, who went to follow Zhuangzi's harvest, returned home.Lin Yan said: "The price of food has risen again, and many shops on the street are closed. This year's harvest, part of it will be kept in the village, and the rest will be hidden."

"How's the situation outside?" Lin Erfu asked.

Xue said: "Recently, I try not to go out as much as possible. I see that the mansion has a lot of open space. Put those flowers and plants in flowerpots, and they can be cultivated into fields or vegetable gardens. After all, there are many people in the mansion. Need something to eat."

Ning Shunan nodded, and said: "I'm not good at farming, I have to help my father and mother, and instruct the servants at home to work."

"It's good that the son-in-law doesn't dislike us." Xue Shi said.

Lin Yan said: "It's so chaotic that it's not too much chaos, but there are not many idlers on the street. There are more people patrolling than peddlers. Only the side door is opened at the city gate, which is convenient for people to come in and out, but the interrogation is getting stricter and stricter. I'll let the servants go Take a look at the bulletin posted by the government, and he will know how the battle is going when he comes back." Lin Yan said a few more words, and then went back to the house to wash and change clothes.

"Father, I want to go out to play." Ning Jingwen came running and said.

With a straight face, Ning Shunan reprimanded: "No, go back to the room and practice calligraphy."

"No, I haven't been out of the house for many days. I have practiced my calligraphy obediently, and my mother has blocked the dog hole." Ning Jingwen said with a smothered mouth.

"Jingwen, don't bother your father, grandpa will take you to play." Lin Erfu knelt down and waved to Lin Jingwen.

Lin Jingwen didn't appreciate it, and said, "What fun can you have!"

Lin Erfu said: "Then I know a lot, go up the mountain to dig out bird eggs, go down to the river to catch big fish."

"There are no birds' eggs on the trees in the mansion. The fish in the lotus pond are all ornamental objects. If I go down to catch them, my father will beat me with a whip. Grandpa, you have come up with bad ideas." Ning Jing said softly.

"Grandpa took you to play. There are many interesting things in this mansion, but you haven't discovered them. It's like fishing silkworms!" Lin Erfu said.

When Ning Jingwen heard it, Dang even became interested, and pestered Lin Erfu to ask what soil silkworms are and how to fish them.Following Lin Erfu, he left the garden and went to play in other yards.After Lin Yan had a simple lunch in the room, she returned to the garden.At this time, it was almost two or three o'clock in the afternoon.The servants who went to read the announcement also returned to Ning Mansion at this time.

"Master is not good!" The servant shouted while running.

Ning Shunan reprimanded him and said, "There are no rules."

"Master, something is wrong." The servant looked scared, and at this moment, he couldn't care less about Ning Shunan's reprimand.Continuing, said: "Qianzhou and Jinzhou have completely fallen, and now they have been divided equally between Tang and Chu. Chuanzhou has been divided by Chu and the Murong family, leaving only Dan County, Luochuan County, and Qinchuan City. Fortunately, the Murong family withdrew their troops and did not intend to continue to attack our Jin country. However, Chu State is still sending more troops over. I listened to the surrounding people's comments. They said that the Jujian City of Chu State issued another martial arts summoning order. , Calling on Chu’s martial artists to gather in Chuanzhou. I’m afraid that when Qi will secretly collude with Chu, Danzhou and Chuanzhou will fall completely, and will no longer belong to our Jin territory.”

Hearing this, Ning Shunan was furious and immediately fainted.Lin Yan hurried forward, beckoning the servants to invite the doctor into the mansion.Luo Shi ran over and said, "Don't be so busy, just let me do it." Luo Shi pinched Ning Shun'an hard with his nails, and Ning Shun'an slowly opened his eyes.

Lin Yan helped Ning Shun'an to get up, Ning Shun'an's face was ashamed, grief came from his heart, and he said sadly: "Heaven is going to destroy my country of Jin!"

Lin Qiaoqiao frowned, what's the matter with God?I'm afraid God is not full enough to support me, so let's take care of this business!
Luo Shi said: "Old man, I want to go back to Lin Family Village. Even if I die, I still want to lie on the land of Lin Family Village, in my own house and die."

"Falling leaves return to their roots!" Lin Qiaoqiao said.

Luo Shi gave Lin Qiaoqiao a blank look. He hadn't scolded Lin Qiaoqiao for so many years. At this moment, Luo Shi scolded: "Bah! What a shame, do I need you to remind me?"

Lin Qiaoqiao shrugged, Lin Tie raised his head and glanced this way, and then continued to admire the fish swimming in the lotus pond.From time to time, he would throw a little bait in, as if the things the big family was discussing had nothing to do with him.Lin Qiaoqiao looked towards Lin Tie, her eyes drooping slightly. Since arriving in Ning Mansion, Lin Tie seldom made a sound, as if deliberately lowering her sense of presence.Because of the sudden death of the first emperor, the enthronement of the new emperor, and the raging wars, Lin Tie's appointment was delayed.Today, the places where they were appointed have all fallen into the territory of the Tang State. There are many new officials like Lin Tie, who are all staying in their respective ancestral lands.

"Tiezi!" Lin Qiaoqiao came over, lying on the guardrail of the gazebo, kneeling on the bench with both legs.The fish in the pond were swimming towards the bait.From time to time, their heads would emerge from the water, with mouths, as if begging for bait from the two of them.

Lin Tie came over, smiled, and said, "Sister Qiaoqiao, why are you here? Why don't you continue to discuss the war with them?"

"What's there to discuss? Every day is bad news. Today is worse than yesterday, and tomorrow will be worse than today." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

Lin Tie joked with a smile: "Really? Why do I feel that because I just scolded Qiaoqiao's sister, Qiaoqiao's sister couldn't hold back her face, so she ran over."

"Nothing." Lin Qiaoqiao smiled awkwardly, trying to cover it up.The characters of this person and Lin Tie are also so similar, their demeanor, words and deeds are exactly the same, just like Lin Tie's shadow.
