Chapter 93

On the second day, Su Hailing called all the grain merchants in Xijing City to Haiyue Villa in a very high-profile way.Afterwards, right under Lan Jing's nose, groups of grain trucks slowly left Xijing and went to various places to collect grain.

No matter what people from all walks of life think, Su Hailing nestled in the small courtyard, listening to Mu Qingchen playing the piano leisurely.

When Lan Qinshuang walked into the small courtyard, what she saw was such a harmonious scene.

In the rare winter, the sun is shining brightly. In the small pavilion, there are exquisite tea sets, several dishes of snacks, and even fresh melons and fruits on the stone table.Mu Qingchen played the qin solo, the sound of the qin played casually did not form a melody, but every sound, faint, seemed like a ray of spring breeze, directly blowing into people's hearts.

"It's all upside down outside, but you're very comfortable." Lan Qinshuang walked into the pavilion with a smile, sat down unceremoniously, picked up a juicy Sydney and bit it, saying, "It's such a cold day that you can eat it." When it comes to fresh pears, you enjoy them more than the palace."

"Haiyue Mountain Villa is close to Southern Chu, so it's more convenient to transport fruits from the south than from the capital." Su Hailing smiled faintly, "Could you just come here to play the autumn wind?"

Mu Qingchen's fingers flicked across the strings, and after a burst of chaotic sounds, the sound of the piano disappeared.

"Tired? Go back to your room and take a nap." Su Hailing smiled.

"En." Mu Qingchen stood up, Mu Xin hugged Yaoqin for him, the two of them ignored Lan Qinshuang and went straight back to the room.

"Okay, the man is gone, the rest is our problem." Lan Qinshuang said with a smile.

Su Hailing smiled, wondering how she would feel if she knew that Mu Qingchen could be said to be the best in the world.

After eating a Sydney pear, Lan Qinshuang threw away the core, wiped her hands, suddenly straightened her face, landed on one knee, and said solemnly: "I, Lan Qinshuang, swear allegiance to His Royal Highness Su Hailing, the descendant of the Holy Queen, and never betray."

There is no such thing as a swearing that a thunderbolt will kill you. Lan Qinshuang's oath is simple but straightforward, but... as a drop of blood fell and slowly penetrated into the ground, Su Hailing felt as if something touched his heart, and there was an inexplicable shock .

Blood oath?What Lan Qinshuang made turned out to be the legendary blood oath on the mainland?
Lan Qinshuang stood up, patted the dust off her clothes, and returned to her original cynical look.

"No regrets?" Su Hailing raised his eyebrows.

"It's too late to regret, the price of breaking the blood oath is not fun." Lan Qinshuang shrugged nonchalantly.

"I even made a blood oath, don't you think it's too rash?" Su Hailing looked at her with a half-smile, "You think I will be a good master?"

"I have no choice." Lan Qinshuang curled her lips, and said helplessly, "Look, the queen is critically ill, Jin Wang Zhida has few talents, and can't become a great weapon. King An... My mother is very optimistic about her, but I Still can't see her."

"Oh?" Su Hailing was taken aback. Although An Wang Su Yuling is nothing, but in the eyes of outsiders, she is a corporal who is respectful and loyal, and she is also good at both civil and military. She is a generation of Mingjun.

"As a king, although you can't have the benevolence of a woman, if you blindly use iron and blood to control people, you will suffer from it sooner or later." Lan Qinshuang said firmly, "Since she sent someone to assassinate Yang Yang, who has made countless contributions to her Jue, if my Lan family helps her succeed, I'm afraid I will follow in Yang Jue's footsteps in the future."

Su Hailing's heart shuddered, and she could hear the meaning hidden in her words, which was to advise herself to be more ruthless in her actions, and not blindly be kind.

"The blood of the other clans is too far away. Even if they seize the throne by force, they will not get the support of the old officials." Lan Qinshuang said, "hehe" smiled, and winked at her. If you want to do nothing, or simply die without a place to die, then I can only choose you."

"It seems that you have been wronged by choosing me." Su Hailing gave her an angry look.

Lan Qinshuang picked up another bunch of purple jade grapes, picked one and stuffed it into her mouth, saying: "What are your plans, you can tell me a little bit, and I can cooperate."

"Can you completely control your own army?" Su Hailing pondered.

"Don't dare to say anything else, the [-] troops under my command are absolutely fine." Lan Qinshuang said confidently, "Mmm... these grapes are really sweet."

"Ask someone to bring you a box later, so that you can have a good time." Su Hailing said.

"That's a good thing." Lan Qinshuang smiled and rolled her eyes, and said again, "The Ministry of War's transfer order has been issued, and I will lead troops to Beijing to change defenses in early March."

"What does Su Yuling mean?" Su Hailing asked in surprise.

"More than half of the country's military power is concentrated in the hands of the Lan family. The remaining half is part of the direct descendants of the Ministry of War, who support King Jin, and the other part is the old department of General Zhenyuan. They were assigned to the northern frontier, but the Zhenyuan Army has never belonged to any faction." Lan Qinshuang eloquently explained Dayong's current military system, and said, "King An must rely on the Lan family if he wants to seize power. If you can't leave Xijing at will, who else can use it besides me?"

Su Hailing nodded secretly, Lan Qinshuang is Lan Jing's only adult daughter, and she has always been brave and good at fighting. The seizure of the throne is such a secret matter, Lan Jing didn't send a daughter, did she send a general with a foreign surname?

"By the way, you shouldn't really transfer all the food into Xijing, right?" Lan Qinshuang asked suspiciously.

"On the contrary." Su Hailing smiled lightly.

"On the contrary?" Lan Qinshuang was stunned, and then suddenly realized, "You mean, those people are not going outside to collect grain, but are transporting Xijing's grain out?"

"The troops defending Xijing are all descendants of the Lan family, but it's unrealistic for so many troops to rely on the imperial court to transport food." Su Hailing said confidently, "As far as I know, the food and grass here have always been directly supplied from Xijing. Didn’t the Generalissimo want to give me a bottom line? Then let her have a taste of this trick herself.”

"You are so bad!" Lan Qinshuang rolled her eyes.

"Aren't you worse?" Su Hailing threw an apple at him casually.

Lan Qinshuang took a bite of the apple and continued to ask, "Then what are you going to do with the transferred food?"

"Except for the rations for the people of Xijing, I will transfer all the food to the direction of the capital." Su Hailing has obviously considered this issue, and he said clearly, "You leave some for military use, and then leave it for the lack of spring seeds along the way." The peasants, anyway, it is a matter of buying people's hearts, why don't you do it yourself?"

"It doesn't seem to use that much." Lan Qinshuang said in surprise.

"If it goes well, it won't work." Su Hailing's face was a little gloomy, "I have to prepare for the worst, if force is used to force the palace, the capital may be in chaos for a while, if someone with evil intentions takes the opportunity to burn the granary...you You must know that the capital is mixed with fish and dragons, there are many spies from the Southern Chu and Western Qin, and even herbal aliens, and there will definitely be a lot of people who will take advantage of the fire to rob, and that batch of food will be used to stabilize the situation at that time."

"I'm a general, and my responsibility lies on the battlefield. I'm not that sensitive about government affairs." Lan Qinshuang said calmly, "Since you have made all the arrangements, I don't need to worry about it."

"I really hope I don't need these." Su Hailing sighed, and continued without waiting for her to speak, "Don't worry, I understand what you said, my hands... are not so soft."

"That's good." Lan Qinshuang stood up, walked out of the pavilion, and said, "I'm going home first, remember to send someone to bring me grapes!"

Su Hailing was a bit dumbfounded, walked to the gate of the small courtyard, called a guard and told him: "Leave a few bunches of those purple jade grapes from Southern Chu, and send them all to Marshal Lan's mansion!"

The guard was baffled, but he still didn't dare to ask more questions, and went to the warehouse to move the grapes.

Su Hailing returned to the small pavilion, carefully thinking about any omissions in the plan.

Murong Zi and Haoyue have already gone to the capital first, so everything will be arranged naturally.The army...don't even think about the direct descendants who are loyal to King Jin, and the neutral old Zhenyuan Army... Thinking of Yun Mo, she couldn't help shaking her head vigorously.

Ever since Bai Yingyu brought her answer, that "big sister" never showed up, nor did she answer, and even Yun Mo didn't see anyone, which made her very confused about what they meant.

If you can't control it in your hands, such a force will always be a threat!
However, Queen Feng's condition is something she cannot agree to, not only because of Mu Qingchen, but she is very clear about the influence of Queen Feng on the harem and even the government. This position... definitely cannot be used by a certain faction to fight for power and profit tool!

Just thinking about it, suddenly, there was a slight noise on the wall.

Su Hailing didn't care either, because there was Xijing Street outside the wall, and children would chase and fight in the street on weekdays, and they would often throw stones or something.

However, at the next moment, a person jumped in from outside the wall openly, looked around, and walked straight towards the small pavilion.

Su Hailing blinked, and looked at him in disbelief——Yun Mo, he was still thinking of him just now, but coincidentally, someone came here.Although...the method of coming here is a bit...not flattering...

"Why, you just look like this when you see me?" Yun Mo bit his lip, a cluster of flames flickered in his beautiful big eyes.

"Yunmo, it's broad daylight now." Su Hailing sighed.

"I'm not a ghost. If I don't come during the day, do I have to wait until night?" Yun Mo's eyes widened suddenly.

Su Hailing smiled wryly, only felt that his head hurt even more, and he said after a while: "What I mean is, it's broad daylight, you can knock on the door and come in through the gate, there's no need to climb over the wall in front of all the people on the street."

"I don't want it!" Yun Mo pouted, ran into the gazebo, picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth, "Your manager always has a sullen face, as if the whole world owes her money, come on The next time I came here, I was very rude!"

"I don't think you are too polite to her, are you?" Su Hailing said helplessly.

"Of course!" Yun Mo raised his head proudly and said proudly, "I get angry when I see her like that!"

"Okay, okay." Su Hailing shook his head, and changed the subject, "You're here this time, does your elder sister know?"

Hearing this, Yun Mo's face immediately darkened, and when he squeezed it, half of the pastry shattered into powder.

"What's wrong?" Su Hailing was startled.

"I know the deal between Eldest Sister and you." Yun Mo said.

"Then?" Su Hailing frowned slightly.

"I don't agree!" Yun Mo said angrily, "I'm not a gift, I was sent back and forth!"

"No one treats you as a gift." Su Hailing said.

She understood that the elder sister wanted her to marry Yun Mo as the king, and it was indeed for Yun Mo's sake.

"I don't want to marry you!" Yun Mo raised his eyebrows, and when he said a word, he seemed to realize something was wrong, and immediately added, "Even if I want to marry, I have to wait for the day when you marry me willingly!"

"If you tell your eldest sister not to marry, I don't think she will force you." Su Hailing couldn't help laughing, and felt a little more relaxed. If it can be solved like this, that's fine...

"I said it." Yun Mo curled his lips, looked at her again and said, "But the eldest sister also said, you have to show her sincerity that can convince her, otherwise who knows if you will be hidden in the future .”

"Yunmo, you are very smart, so you should see the current situation clearly." Su Hailing said calmly, "If you want to reverse the verdict for General Zhenyuan, the Queen can't count on it. Can continue to be wrong. Maybe he already knew that the general is innocent, but he can't say it - if it means that she killed the innocent by mistake, then wouldn't she become a foolish king? As for King An and King Jin, one is honest in appearance and scheming in heart, and the other is innocent. He is vicious and vicious regardless of the consequences, just for the military power of the Zhenyuan Army, and will never really do such a thankless thing as overturning the case. Think about it, how long did it take for the case to be copied and executed? Almost none Any obstacle, he was sentenced to beheaded, and he was executed without waiting until the autumn. If it was not because of other strangeness, how could he have cut off a general guarding the border so hastily? Now, who dares to truly Turn this public case out for a retrial."

Yun Mo bit his lower lip and remained silent.

"Except for me, you have no choice." Su Hailing said.

"You..." After a long time, Yun Mo said, "Can you really overturn the case? Are you not afraid to announce the secrets covered in it to the public?"

"I can." Su Hailing's voice was quiet, but he didn't hesitate at all.

"What if... that is something that is not good for the royal family of Dayong? What about something that can affect the stability of Dayong?" Yun Mo asked persistently.

"So what?" Su Hailing smiled lightly, the royal family?Dayong?She wants the world, but the world is not equal to Dayong.

"So what?" Yun Mo repeated blankly, staring at her and said, "What if Dayong is torn apart because of this? What if it triggers a war between the Three Kingdoms?"

"If it can't be broken, it can't be built." Su Hailing's expression didn't change at all, and he just said indifferently, "If it really becomes like that... The big deal is to rebuild a Dayong. I am Su Hailing's Dayong."

"You...you are crazy..." Yun Mo said blankly.

"Maybe." Su Hailing smiled.

"I will try my best to convince Eldest Sister." Yun Mo stomped his feet and left a sentence, still the same as when he came here, completely ignoring the street with people coming and going outside, and went out directly over the wall.

Su Hailing sighed softly, no matter what, the affairs of Xijing have been arranged for the time being, and the real battle... is in the capital.
