When I just got divorced, I was overheard

Chapter 495 The Eve of Siege
Xiao Meng came back seven days later, while Niu Jinlie came back two days ago.

When Xiaomeng entered the camp, he handed Li Xiuzhu a bamboo tube. The bamboo tube was not big, about the size of a fire folding bag, and there were two pieces of paper inside.

"My sister asked me to give this to you."

Although the family is arranged according to age, according to my sister, only Fu Yuehua is the main wife.

But just as Li Xiuzhu took it, Xiaomeng took out a bamboo tube again.

"Sister Liuli gave this to you. She said she couldn't let anyone else see it, including the sisters."

After saying that, Xiaomeng looked at Li Xiuzhu with clear eyes and asked, "Husband, where should I sleep?"

"Well, why don't you sleep with your husband on your first day here?"

Xiaomeng shook her head and said seriously: "After sleeping with your husband, Xiaomeng will think that it will take two or three days to calm down."

"Sister said this trip is more dangerous. My skills require calmness, so I can't sleep with my husband."

Li Xiuzhu paused and twitched the corners of his mouth. He really wanted to ask Xiaomeng, are you serious?
But when I thought about how simple and paper-like it was, maybe I was really serious.

Li Xiuzhu had no choice but to say: "It's not dangerous now, it's still early, so it's okay for us to sleep together during this period."

Hearing this, Xiaomeng looked at Li Xiuzhu with clear eyes, shook her head and said, "Sister said that my husband is not a good person, and he will definitely think about how to let me sleep with him, so what he says about sleeping cannot be trusted."

? ? ?Fu Yuehua?Is this the impression your father gave you?

Rumors, right?

But looking at Xiaomeng's pure eyes, he really couldn't force it.

outrageous.

Li Xiuzhu said weakly: "Go to your Sanniang sister, she will arrange it for you."

"Li Hongxiu, go take Madam to Madam's tent."

After Xiaomeng left, Li Xiuzhu opened the letter Fu Yuehua brought.

As expected, the first one was given by Fu Wenhan. The reason why Xiaomeng came late was because Fu Wenhan kept asking Xiaomeng to wait.

It was only now that the information was brought to Li Xiuzhu.

Fu Wenhan's message is very simple, mainly three pieces.

First, I am ready to go to Beijing and can close the network at any time, just waiting for news from him.

Second, the Sun family can be gone, but Suhang cannot be in chaos.

Third, if the Sun family is deeply entrenched, if there is danger, or a large number of soldiers need to die, they can temporarily cede territory and seek peace.

From the third message, we can see the trust that the father-in-law has in him.

However, Li Xiuzhu never thought about suing for peace. Once his knees become weak, it will be difficult to straighten them up. Then he may not be able to lead the team.

Li Xiuzhu opened the second piece of paper. This piece of paper was written by Fu Yuehua. He wrote down all the big and small things and thoughts about his family.

The third letter was unexpected. It was written by Li Biyao. The letter stated that Li Biyao had reached a purchase agreement with Siam through his grandfather's family and would start trading grain three months later.

So a lot of money is needed to support it.

Li Xiuzhu didn't care when he heard this. The tens of thousands taels of gold were enough, even for this year.

This does not include what the Su family gave him. Of course, he would not use what the Su family gave him.

As for next year, won’t Siam be defeated next year?
Li Liuli wrote about missing him and asking Li Xiuzhu to buy her gifts.

She even vaguely mentioned that she had met Yuan Ying, and then sent it to Li Fei in good condition, waiting for him to come back to complete the coming-of-age ceremony for Yuan Ying.

Time flies, half a month has passed, and the Grand Canal has also been dug to Jiangdu.

When he arrived in Jiangdu, Li Xiuzhu looked at Suzhou and Hangzhou on the other side.

Jiangdu is not too prosperous at this time, but because it is close to Suzhou and Hangzhou, it is not too bad.

Li Xiuzhu also rarely moved his residence into Jiangdu.

On this day, the excavation of the Grand Canal was completed, leaving only the final canal.Niu Jinlie led several military attachés to find Li Xiuzhu and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, Lao Niu will ask you a question. After asking Lao Niu, Lao Niu will turn around and leave."

Li Xiuzhu knew what Niu Jinlie wanted to ask, so he didn't mince words with him and said bluntly: "Isn't it right to beat Suzhou and Hangzhou?"

Niu Jinlie didn't expect Li Xiuzhu to be so direct and didn't mean to shirk at all, so he was immediately a little embarrassed.

He thought that Li Xiuzhu hadn't mentioned it yet because he didn't plan to avenge the general.

But he was not a coy person, so he just smiled if he was embarrassed.

"Yes, Lao Niu just wants to ask the prince if what you said still counts. If you hit Lao Niu, you will definitely hit him."

"If the prince is in trouble and doesn't want to, I can understand, but I will wear this military uniform today."

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu said directly: "Go and let your friends prepare. There will be a flower boat from the Su family to take you across the river at night. But the flower boats are limited, and there will definitely not be many people crossing the river."

"Even if the transportation arrives at Yinshisiji, I'm afraid there will only be 3, [-] people."

"And you may die if exposed, so think carefully."

"If you arrive safely, take this command arrow and release it at the north gate. Someone in the city will seize the gate for you."

Niu Jinlie heard this and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, I am not afraid of death. I, Niu Jinlie, am willing to lead the way."

Li Xiuzhu nodded.

"My two concubines will hold the battle for you. If you need to attack the city, you must obey her orders."

Niu Jinlie suddenly felt numb when he heard this and was a little unhappy.

"Your Majesty, Lao Niu means no offense, but your concubine, does she know how to attack cities and ponds?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this.

"My two concubines are both peerless masters, and one of them made suggestions and defended the Great Victory Pass for ten years."

Niu Jinlie was speechless for a moment, and was replaced by confusion. They knew very well what the two peerless masters represented.

Those are all enemies of ten thousand people, and a single person can't die if he attacks the army.

If it is caught unexpectedly, it can even take the enemy's head among all the troops.

"Remember, allies wear white armbands, and they can only leave the military camp at night."

"Yes, my lord."

After Niu Jinlie left, Li Xiuzhu called Huang Rong's five daughters over.

"Rong'er, you lead Xiaomeng to attack the city,"

"Mingyue, you stay in the house and guard the house."

"Sanniang, Xiu Xin, follow me into the city and learn about the powerful Sun family's trump card."

The five girls all nodded. Although Nalan Mingyue also wanted to follow Li Xiuzhu, she also knew that there were still several sisters in the house who were not taken care of.

Sometimes the enemy may not only come from outside.

Huang Rong frowned and asked, "If the prince enters the city like this, it will be much more difficult to attack the city if he is discovered."

"If someone sends a signal at the city gate, the Sun family will definitely flee in advance."

"And I heard from the brothers of the Beggar Clan that there is a hidden master in the Sun family who is cunning and cruel. He is very likely to be wary of us attacking the city."

"At this time, the city wall must be heavily guarded."

"There may even be military generals guarding the prince, a peerless master, at the gate of Jiangdu City."

Li Xiuzhu nodded, and then said: "So we disguise ourselves to go out of the city and enter the city."

"Suzhou and Hangzhou are close to the Huai River. There are too many people coming in and out. It's not dark yet, the city gate is not closed, and I have two girls with me. How can he guard against me?"
