There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 670
Empress Dowager Wei fell ill after learning the news of Qinzong's sudden death, and after a few years of madness, she died.

More than a year later, Qin Xi, who had always been noisy, was squeezed out by the world from time to time because of the defeat of the Qin family, and died of depression.

After several years of accumulating seeds, Li Jiaoniang's cotton has begun to be planted on a large scale.

In addition to planting in the Zhuangzi of Yuezhou, she also promoted it to the villagers.

Cotton, which is warmer than kapok, quickly became a hot commodity on the market.

People everywhere are buying in the village.

The villages on the outskirts of Yuezhou, including the Lu family in the city, have made a small fortune from cotton.

As for Lin'an City, it has benefited a lot from the large-scale cultivation of cotton.

There is ample cotton cloth in the treasury.

From then on, the army bid farewell to the era of lack of clothes.

Because of Luo Cheng's contribution to the army, he was named Yixing Bo by Emperor Gaozong, and Li Jiaoniang was his wife.

The embroidery shop opened by Li Jiaoniang also started a weaving business.

In addition to Mrs. Wang, she recruited about fifty female workers and a few men.

After several years of business, Li Jiaoniang has already saved hundreds of thousands of dollars.

She exchanged all the money into silver ingots or gold ingots, and packed them neatly into boxes.

Luo Cheng saw a room full of money, and asked inexplicably, "It's so convenient to change it into silver notes, why change it into silver ingots and gold ingots? Look, it takes up a lot of space for storage."

Li Jiaoniang said with a smile, "I want to leave it for future generations to use. The banknotes can only be used in the dynasty. When the dynasty changes, the banknotes are waste paper."

Luo Cheng sneered, "Our son is not born yet, how about a grandson?"

Li Jiaoniang blushed, "It will come soon, what's the hurry?"

Luo Cheng said lightly, "I'm not in a hurry. It's the Lord of Hengyang who is asking, and wants him to go to the village for dinner tomorrow. You can go and talk about this son. I won't talk for you this time."

Li Jiaoniang, "..." It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is in a hurry!
She hasn't finished her work yet, why worry about the child?
She pinched her fingers and counted, once this winter is over, she will prepare to have a baby tomorrow spring.

This winter, the Kingdom of Jin is about to change. Starting next year, the Kingdom of Song in the South will be peaceful for 50 years.

These 50 years are enough for her son and grandchildren to live in peace.

.

Under the reminders of Hengyang Gong and Li Jiaoniang, Zhao Cong secretly made careful arrangements.

Weapons, gunpowder, winter clothes, wound medicine, stretchers, carriages and horses, all made a lot of preparations.

Li Jiaoniang, on the other hand, was still revealing false news to Li Peiyu that the court was about to march south.

In the autumn of this year, Duke Hengyang and Zhao Cong will go to the south to conquer Baiyue.

In fact, they did arrange it this way, transporting many horses to the south with great fanfare.

Li Peiyu overheard the news and immediately sent it to Mu Xuan.

Mu Xuan also passed on to Jin Guowan Yanliang.

After receiving the news, Wan Yanliang immediately started to arrange the plan of attacking south.

As for Wanyan Wulu, he secretly planned to instigate rebellion a few years ago.

Both sides were waiting for Wan Yanliang to dispatch troops so that they could encircle and wipe him out.

In the summer of this year, the two countries still offered and received tributes as before.

But after receiving the tribute, Wan Yanliang found an excuse that the quality of the tea delivered today was worse than last year's, the quality of the cloth was also poor, and the quality of the horses was also poor. They were all old and thin horses.

He said that Song Guo was despising him.

Song Guo was blatantly provoking him, and blatantly tearing up the contract made back then.

It is deliberately provoking a war.

So, in October of this year, he led the [-]th Army to the south.

Divide into four groups and launch a full-scale attack on the southern land.

All the way soldiers and horses detoured from the sea to attack Lin'an;

All the way soldiers and horses set off from Caizhou to attack Jingzhou;
Along the way, Fengxiang attacked Dashan Pass and entered Sichuan on standby.

On the other side, he personally led 30 elite soldiers.

Along the way, the banners fluttered continuously, and the sound of war drums shook the sky.

The southern land, which had been at peace for 20 years, once again encountered Jin people attacking the city, and Lin'an City suddenly panicked.

However, this time in the court, the emperor did not just run for his life as he did 20 years ago.

Although they were also panicked, most of them advocated sending troops to fight to the death.

Zhao Cong even took out the preparation list and talked about the benefits of the main battle.

Soldiers, horses, weapons, wound medicine, clothing, gunpowder, food and grass.

He made preparations with Hengyang Duke six years ago.

It is also said that when the golden soldiers come to attack in autumn, they must have no winter clothes. The further they fight back, the colder the weather will be, which is extremely unfavorable to them.

It is also said that their army is coming quickly, and the food and grass must not be prepared enough.

The people outside Lin'an City had already hidden food in the mountains, they couldn't collect it, once the food and grass were cut off, the morale of the army would be in turmoil.

Listening to Zhao Cong's report, Gaozong admired this son more and more.

He nodded in time to agree to fight.

In fact, there were several main peace parties between the DPRK and China.

But they were all secretly controlled by the Duke of Hengyang, and these people could not speak out. Gaozong wanted to make peace and could not get support, so he had to agree to fight.

When the soldiers approach the city, the emperor can only show his country's prestige by going to war.

Li Jiaoniang privately persuaded Zhao Cong, asking him to invite Gaozong to fight, and not to be in the limelight, just be a small follower.

At first, Gaozong was a little scared and did not dare to fight.

But what Duke Hengyang said made him have to fight.

Duke Hengyang mentioned Emperor Qinzong, Emperor Gaozong's elder brother.

It is said that Emperor Qinzong did not dare to fight back then, he hesitated and hesitated, and missed a great opportunity to inspire the army.

Hand over the great rivers and mountains to others in vain.

In order to dispel Gaozong's scruples, Zhao Cong followed Li Jiaoniang's suggestion and volunteered, "My son is willing to be a forward and protect his father."

He expressed his determination in this way, so Gaozong didn't have to worry about a fire in the backyard forcing him to abdicate.

"Okay, pass the decree, the school grounds call for troops!"

……

When Wan Yanliang's army approached the city, Mu Xuan, who had been working in Lin'an for many years, brought Zong Wuji and Luo Fucai, bought off the guards, and went out of the city in the opposite direction.

Not long after they left the city gate, they saw Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang chasing after them on horseback.

Luo Cheng looked at Luo Fucai, "Sixth Uncle, Mu Xuan is a villain, you will lose your life sooner or later if you follow him."

Luo Fucai's food and accommodation in the past few years have all been paid by Mu Xuan. He is used to enjoying good food and drink, so how could he listen to Luo Cheng's divisive words?
Besides, Song Guoke had never defeated a Jinren, he judged the situation and did not want to listen to Luo Cheng's advice at all.

"If you stay in the city, you will lose your life! Now that the Jin army is going south, if you don't escape, you will die. When the Jin invaded Bianjing, 20 Bianjing people died!"

Li Jiaoniang said, "Today is different, they won't be able to enter the city!"

"Nearly 20 troops surrounded Lin'an City, but there are only 2 horses in the city. How dare you say that today is different from the past? What big talk? I don't want to be dumped!" Luo Fucai said impatiently.

"Luo Fucai, don't waste time listening to their nonsense, let's continue to go north, the benefactor is still waiting for us!" Mu Xuan turned his horse's head and went forward with a whip.

Zong Wuji followed behind.

Luo Fucai said, "Luo Cheng, for the sake of calling me Sixth Uncle, hurry up and run away."

Li Jiaoniang shook her head, "Luo Cheng, let them go!"

Luo Cheng glanced at them indifferently, then turned his horse's head, "Jiao Niang, let's go back to the city."

Just as the two turned their horses around, they heard Mu Xuan sneer behind him, "Li Jiaoniang, if you want to survive, it is the best policy for you to leave Luo Cheng! Otherwise, you will die without a place to die!"

Li Jiaoniang sneered, "You should worry about whether you will die without a place to bury yourself!"

Across the horse, she pulled Luo Cheng's arm, and the two whipped the horse away.

"You will regret it!" Mu Xuan sneered.

"Stupid people don't live long! Mr. Mu, let's ignore them and meet the benefactor as soon as possible." Zong Wuji urged.

"Go! Go to the Golden Camp!"

.

Mu Xuan and the others hurried on their way and finally found Wan Yanliang.

Facing the great situation, Wan Yanliang was in a good mood.

Glad to see them coming.

These three are his great heroes.

Wan Yanliang said, "After the city of Lin'an is captured, I will reward you for your merits and bestow the servants of the mansion."

Mu Xuan immediately thanked him, "My lord, thank the emperor for his kindness."

Zong Wuji and Luo Fucai also saluted together.

In their hearts, they were equally overjoyed.

Mu Xuan asked again, "Your Majesty, when will we attack the city?"

He wants to get a head start.

Wan Yanliang said, "The city will be attacked in an hour!"

The three were overjoyed, "I would like to be a striker!"

Wan Yanliang raised his eyebrows, "Okay, I'm waiting for the good news from the three lovers!"

At this time, it was the second watch, and it was dawn an hour later.

The three of them, Mu Xuan, were led down by the guards, and went to rest with their armor and weapons.

When they slept until midnight, there was a sound of gold ringing from somewhere in the felt camp.

The war drums advance, and the gold retreats.

This team hasn't been drawn up yet, so why did they withdraw from the army?

Many people were confused and ran out of the felt camp.
