Possessed by Luffy's fruit, I went crazy in ancient times

Chapter 175 Four sides and eight directions

Xu Yihuan didn't know that the Blue City Army on the opposite side was so quiet. It was because of the absurdity of His Majesty and the three princes that they delayed attacking.

On the contrary, she thought with modern thinking and suspected that His Majesty and the three princes were secretly planning some big conspiracy.

But with her modern mind, she couldn't think of anything immoral that His Majesty and the three idiot princes would do, so she ordered people to inquire around.

Not only did he directly investigate the Blue City Army, Xu Yihuan directly ordered people to place scouts around the capital. For this reason, he also specifically asked Tao Changgui for advice on how to cultivate fine craftsmen in this era.

Tao Changgui did not hide it, but directly stopped the cultivation of Xizuo.

After so many years in the Xu Mansion, he has a natural way of cultivating fine craftsmanship.

This is unmatched by anyone else.

Although King Jin also had it, what Xu Yihuan wanted was obviously a more comprehensive investigation.

While Xu Yihuan was still leisurely watching the situation in the city gradually return to normal, bad news came.

"Miss, it's not good." Tao Changgui hurried over with an envelope.

Seeing Xu Yihuan still lying outside in the sun, he frowned.

"What's going on?" Xu Yihuan stretched lazily.

"There is turmoil around the capital, and Qincheng is already recruiting troops," the staff said sincerely and sharply, hoping to make Xu Yihuan wake up.

Xu Yihuan yawned and sighed: "Isn't this the ending you guessed early on?"

The staff member was stunned for a moment and forgot that this matter had indeed been planned early on.

The king of Jin also sent a letter to the border town for this reason.

He said: "I am confused."

Xu Yihuan sighed: "It's okay, let me take a look."

The staff member handed the letter in his hand to Xu Yihuan.

Xu Yihuan opened it and read it, her face turned green and white: "So many?"

She suddenly pulled off the blanket on her body and stood up: "There is an internal response in the city." Since she knew so clearly the situation in Gyeonggi City.

The content of the letter once again talked about the 80,000-strong army and the assassins of the Xu family, including the raids on the homes of the Xie family, the Xu family, and His Majesty, among other important noble families.

"Where's Xie's family?" Xu Yihuan folded the letter and put it into the envelope.

The staff member thought for a moment and said, "Lock him up."

Xu Yihuan said: "Thanks to my family for not dying, it finally gave hope to the people in the surrounding border towns."

The staff understood what she meant and stepped back. Xu Yihuan had not originally thought of going on a killing spree, but when she thought about the frequent wars due to the existence of the Xie family, she had to abandon distracting thoughts and concentrate on planning.

She planned to see Xu Tai again. Magistrate Liu and Yeshang seemed to have heard the news and rushed over just when she was about to make a decision.

"Miss Xu, I heard that a secret report has arrived," County Magistrate Liu spoke first.

Ye Shang had sharp eyes and stepped forward to take Xu Yihuan's envelope and open it. After the two of them read it as usual, their expressions darkened.

"With our current strength, we can still cope with the situation around Gyeonggi, but we are afraid that if they join forces to fight, we won't know where to support them." Ye Shang stared.

Then he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Xu Yihuan. Xu Yihuan took it after being surprised and opened it again to read.

The deployment of border guards has been completed. Yeshang controls a total of fifteen border cities, with five thousand troops sent to each city. The rest need to stay to fight against the guards.

Ye Shang was also in a dilemma.

Xu Yihuan felt like she was being made into a dumpling. She wanted to sigh, but she didn't want to undermine everyone's self-confidence and said: "It would be great if we could have a military advisor who could go to lobby the cities."

Yeshang and Magistrate Liu looked at each other. Yeshang was naturally not the best candidate, but looking at Magistrate Liu, he didn't seem to be the best candidate either.

Who among the officials of the Jin Dynasty does not know County Magistrate Liu?

Xu Yihuan fell into confusion, and his mind seemed to be scratched.

She left the mansion with a headache. After stabilizing in the past few days, she ran back to live in Prince Jin's Mansion. She had no reason to live in a camp without a good place. The soldiers she brought back were now arranged around Prince Jin's Mansion.

Da Jin was so evil that she thought about attacking hard, fighting hard, monopolizing business wars, and even inciting rebellion from within.

She walked around Prince Jin's Mansion with a headache on her face.

Finally we went shopping on the street.

In just a few days, the streets were already crowded with people. Those old people who still had memories of the Wei Dynasty also took to the streets and began to prepare to restore their former freedom.

Xu Yihuan liked this feeling. When she saw the old man on the street corner moving out the stall where he set up his stall, he walked forward with a smile and said, "Uncle Gui, where are you going to sell glutinous rice balls?"

The batter is Xu Yihuan's recent idea. Wheat is ground into powder, and some salt and pickles are added. It tastes very good.

The refugees in the city are now doing the same thing in order to keep their food rations alive for a few days longer.

When Uncle Gui saw Xu Yihuan coming, he stepped forward with a smile and said: "Xu Xiaowei, you are out for a walk again. Uncle Gui will make you some paste later."

Xu Yihuan has eaten it several times. Guishu's craftsmanship is very good, and he can always add the right amount of salt and pickles. The taste is just right, not salty but not bland, and there is a faint aroma of wheat in the paste.

Xu Yihuan grinned and said, "Okay."

Guishu put up the signboard on the stall and moved the stove up, and then said to Xu Yihuan: "The soldiers around the Jin Palace are selling food to them. It's freezing and snowy, and they are tired of standing guard. Now the soldiers have two When you have enough money, you will come to buy from me. Today I want to sell some nearby."

When Xu Yihuan heard this, he realized that Uncle Gui had a good mind for doing business.

She said: "Why did you think of setting up a stall around Jin Prince's Mansion?"

Uncle Gui laughed and said: "The King of Jin is kind and would not stop me from buying it before. It's just that the soldiers used to have empty pockets and many people wanted to eat but had no money."

Speaking of this, Uncle Gui's eyes lit up a lot, and he said: "All this is thanks to Colonel Xu. Now the soldiers are having a better life. They are all rushing to join the army. My son is also in the army. "

When Xu Yihuan heard this, he became interested and said: "Which camp are you in? Maybe I know him?"

Uncle Gui chuckled and said, "Xu Xiaowei is laughing at me. My son is a returning soldier from Xiaocheng. At first, my family could not afford to support him and we had no money to pay the exemption fee, so we let him go. Thanks to Xu Xiaowei and Jin King, let my son have a chance to come back alive. His name is Li Xun."

The immunity fund is an immunity tax item set by the Great Jin Zheng on civilians. If civilians have the money to pay a sufficient amount, they can be exempted from labor. No limit on the number of people per household.

According to the Dajin hierarchy, every household is required to serve.

Xu Yihuan guessed that Uncle Gui must have been a small landowner before, and he was already very powerful for being able to persist for so many years.

She asked: "Li Xun, does he have any position in the camp?"

Since Guishu knows how to do business, her son must be good too. Xu Yihuan is a person who loves talents. If he is a talented person, she will try her best to bring him to her side.

"Logistics, in the kitchen"

Xu Yihuan frowned, kitchen, maybe she had beaten someone before.

The person who hired the kitchen was a snobbish person. Xu Yihuan's thoughts twitched and she finally said: "I'll stop by and have a look some other time. Mr. Li will come home to see you in the near future."

She still doesn't know if there is a custom of celebrating the New Year here. Just looking at the date, it should be almost the Chinese New Year. New Year's Eve is a day for family reunion in the heart of the Han people.
