Yun Qing entered the camp and saw Qi Hao lying on the bed sleeping soundly.
Sitting by the bed, Yun Qing touched Qihao's red face, and said with a smile: "I haven't turned black at all in the grassland for so long, and I don't know who it looks like." Yuxi's skin is white and delicate. , But as long as he is exposed to the sun, he will still turn black. As for him, he is not white at all. So brother Hao's untanned skin really doesn't know who it looks like.
Before, he was worried about his son's delicate and white skin, but this time he brought Brother Hao out, and he didn't see anyone mention it, so he was relieved. As long as the son is capable, it doesn't really matter whether the skin is white or black.
Yi Kun walked in and stood beside Yun Qing and said softly, "Master, the princess has a letter to deliver."
Brother Hao just turned over at this moment and turned his back to Yun Qing. Yun Qing smiled and covered him with the blanket, and walked out.
After reading Yuxi's letter, Yun Qing looked a little solemn.
Yi Kun was a little strange, and asked, "Master, what happened to Gaocheng?" If it wasn't for the accident in Gaocheng, Yun Qing wouldn't have such a face.
Yun Qing shook his head and said, "No. Many places such as Shanxi and Henan have suffered from drought, and the harvest has been greatly reduced." In addition, Hebei also suffered from drought in the vicinity of Shanxi, and now there are thousands of refugees flocking to Shanxi. . Yuxi has ordered Liu Yongnan to guard the city gate and not allow refugees to enter. It is not that Yuxi is cruel, but that they are temporarily unable to accommodate so many refugees.
Yi Kun then understood why Yun Qing's face was so ugly. Once there is a natural disaster, not only will there be no harvest, but the government will also have to provide disaster relief, which can cost a lot of money. They had just fought another big battle, and they were afraid that the official Curry had run out of money.
After thinking about it, Yi Kun asked, "My lord, what about Jiangnan? The harvest in Jiangnan is not bad, right?" If Jiangnan's harvest is good, there will be food relief.
Yun Qing said: “There was too much rain in Jiangnan this year, and the yield was reduced. The harvest was more than 20% less than last year.” Fortunately, there was no flood and no harvest like nine years ago. If so, then they don't know where to go to raise food.
Yi Kun said, "It's really a leak in the house, and it rains overnight." Several provinces were hit by disasters, but Jiangnan, which produces grain and grows land, has cut production again, which is not unlucky.
Yun Qing didn't think so: "It's also lucky, after all, the war in Beijiao is over." If the war hasn't started yet, I'm afraid it will be another battle and it will be postponed.
Yi Kun thinks about it and thinks so.
Zaozao lay on the bed and muttered: "I don't know when Dad will come back." Because the injury was deep, although the wound was scarred, Zaozao had to sleep on his stomach instead of lying down just in case.
In fact, Zaozao can walk around now, but it's too hot outside and she sweats as soon as she walks. You can’t take a cold shower too much, you can get cold if you take too much. It was because I didn't pay attention to it that I contracted the wind and cold, and suffered serious sins because of vomiting and diarrhea. After suffering so much, Zao Zao dare not help her temper.
Qiu He held Zaozao and said, "I want to come, the prince is already on the way back. The princess, when the prince comes back, you can follow him back to Haocheng." It is much hotter than Haocheng, Zaozao. Time has suffered a serious crime. Over the past two months, I have lost a lot of weight. When the prince and the princess meet, they will definitely feel distressed to death.
Zaozao thought about going home, and said depressed: "Going back this time, I must be laughed at by Brother Rui and others." Such a good opportunity, but unfortunately because of the injury, nothing was done and it was so shameless.
Qiu He said helplessly: "What the princess said? The princess can be safe, the second young masters are too happy to be too late, how can they laugh at you?"
Well, Zaozao admitted that it was she herself that couldn't pass the hurdle in her heart: "When I came out, I told my mother that I must make a big contribution this time, but it turned out..."
Qiu He felt that it was unreasonable for the jujube to entangle these things: "In the eyes of the princess, the princess doesn't care about your safety and health, but only cares about whether you do meritorious service?"
Zaozao shook his head and said, "That's not true, I'm just afraid that my mother will be disappointed." Her mother paved the way for her, but she was not up for it.
Qiuhe didn't entangle with Zaozao on this topic, but changed the topic: "Princess, would you be anxious if the second young master of the Wu family knew that you were injured?"
In this regard, Zaozao is still very confident: "He must be very anxious. However, maybe he doesn't even know the news of my injury!" Her mother might not tell Wu Jinyu about this.
Qiu He said: "Even if the princess doesn't tell him, can't he just ask? If he doesn't ask, he can only say that he doesn't miss the princess and doesn't care about the princess."
Zaozao said: "I can feel that he likes me too!" So Wu Jinyu must know about her injury.
Qiu He has been with Zaozao for many years, and has a thicker skin than ordinary girls. No way, if you don't have a thick skin, you won't be able to hold it! Qiuhe said: "The princess, just talk in front of me, but you can't say this in front of outsiders. Let outsiders hear it, and you will feel that the princess is very self-respecting! At that time, it will be the prince and the princess that are lost. What about the face!"
Zaozao remembered what Yuxi had said to her, and said, "You are me two hundred and five? Tell outsiders everything." Qiu He was her confidant, so she didn't care.
During the summer solstice, he opened the curtain and walked into the house, saying: "Princess, Guard Yin, please see me." Yin Zhaofeng will not enter the house if he is okay.
Yin Zhaofeng brought good news to Zaozao: "The princess, just got the news, the prince had already set off on his way back to Yucheng three days ago, and he should be able to arrive in about half a month."
Hope for the stars and the moon, and finally hope for it. She couldn't help going back if she didn't come back.
Zaozao asked, "What did you ask about before?" He heard a rumor not long ago that her father was injured. Zaozao couldn't worry about it, so he asked Yin Zhaofeng to find out if the news was true.
Yin Zhaofeng shook his head and said: "I haven't heard the news in this regard. The princess, this should be just a rumor. If the prince is really injured, this battle will not go so smoothly." In order to stabilize the military's mind, even if the prince is injured, he must conceal it. Gotta die.
Seeing Zaozao frowning, Yin Zhaofeng said: "The princess, since there is news from the front that the prince is on the way back, then the prince must be unimpeded. It is really hurt, but it can't stand the bumps."
Zaozao was still worried, and said, "I hope it's okay." Don't look at her mother as good, but the real pillar of the family is his father. If there is a problem with her father, she may not be able to hold it in the first place. Last time her father was in a coma, his mother almost didn't hold on.
Yuxi was also busy at this time. To collect grain and grass from Jiangnan to disaster relief in Shanxi and Henan, and deal with post-war affairs, there are still a lot of government affairs to take care of. At this moment, Yuxi really wanted to have twenty-four hours a day.
Yuxi did not show up at the dinner table for dinner that night. Brother You asked the grandmother with some worry: "Mother, what is mother up to lately? Why don't you even have time to go back to the backyard to eat?" There was a big victory in the front, and her mother should have been very busy recently.
The grandmother said: "The following provinces have been hit by disasters. The princess has been busy with disaster relief recently, so there is no time to come back for dinner."
Brother You asked: "Can the mother have food?" Can't you skip meals just because you are busy with official duties!
Mother Quan said with a smile: "Don’t worry about the Fourth Young Master, I've asked Banxia to deliver the food." After a pause, Mother Quan said: "The princess will not be free during this time, and the Second Young Master, you must be obedient. Don't let the princess worry about it anymore."
Brother Rui was the first to express his position: "Mother, don't worry, we will listen to the words of the husband and the master, and will not let the mother worry about it."
The grandmother praised: "They are all good children."
Yuxi was busy again in the middle of the night, dragging her tired body back to the backyard, sitting on a chair, she didn't want to get up.
Grandma said: "The water is ready, let's take a bath!" Taking a bath can relieve fatigue, and Yuxi will be able to sleep well later.
While taking a bath, Yuxi couldn't help sighing.
Mother Quan asked, "Okay, what do you sigh for?" Even when it was harder, Yuxi never sighed.
Yuxi said: "Natural disasters, the people who suffer are all the people." **, refers to war.
Mother Quan said: "When the prince calms the world, the common people will no longer have to suffer from wars." As for natural disasters, this is something that cannot be changed by humans, and there is nothing to say.
Yuxi said: "Liu Yongnan said that he had already gathered tens of thousands of refugees. But we can't take care of ourselves, how can we let them in." If only tens of thousands of refugees can be settled. But the problem is that once this opening is opened, other refugees will flock to it. How could she be able to settle hundreds of thousands or even millions of refugees. Furthermore, there are nearly a million victims in need of assistance under their control.
Mother Quan said: "It is enough to settle the victims under our control. The victims over there are Yan Wushuang's business."
Yuxi smiled bitterly: "I just want to help them, and there is nothing I can do now." If Yun Qing hadn't sent troops to the North, or Shanxi and other provinces had not caused disasters, she still had room to resettle some of the victims. But things are all put together, even if she has this heart, she can't help it.
Mother Quan persuaded: "Don't think too much, they are not the people under our rule. If you want to worry, Yan Wushuang has to worry about it."
Yuxi still doesn't know the truth: "Just remembering that these victims are displaced and have no food, I can't tell you the sadness." She has experienced all these things, so the feelings are especially deep.
Having been with Yuxi for so many years, how could the whole mother not know that Yuxi is not a sympathetic person. But for these refugees, Yuxi seemed to have pity for them.
The grandmother said: "That's no way. To blame, it's God who doesn't give people a way to survive."
Yuxi smiled bitterly: "In fact, many people in Hebei and Shandong will not be able to eat and wear warmth even if they are not affected by the disaster." Yan Wushuang can be regarded as a promising emperor, but he wants to raise a million troops. A huge expenditure. Where does the money come from? Naturally it came from the people.
In fact, Yuxi was able to reduce taxes and exempt all kinds of complicated tax items because their husband and wife had good fortune. Over the years, they have not only found gold and silver mines, but also won several huge sums of money. Otherwise, such frequent wars will certainly bring a heavy burden to the people. Of course, it is not without trouble. So many people died in the war, and all the young and middle-aged people died, which is very detrimental to future development.
Mother Quan said with a smile: "When the prince calms down the world, the princess will let them eat and wear warmth, and live and work in peace and contentment." She felt that Yuxi would definitely be able to do it.
Yu Xin said, "At that time, this is also my business." She is in her position to seek political affairs. Since she sits in this position, she will naturally let the people live a good life.
The grandmother looked at Yuxi with a tired look and said: "Princess, you also have to cherish your body, don't get tired."
Yuxi smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not tired of this. Besides, it will be fine when the prince comes back." Yun Qing is here and can solve the problem with her.
Speaking of Yun Qing, Mother Quan said with a smile: "The prince has destroyed the Beibao this time, and has stabilized the hearts of the people." Because of the destruction of the Beibao, Yun Qing's reputation has reached a new height. And under Yuxi's operation, the name of Yunqing God of War has spread throughout the world.
Yuxi didn't show a smile, but instead said: "The Beibao matter has been resolved, and now there is still the capital." Attacking the capital is not easier than fighting the Beijiao.
"The capital? I thought that I left the capital thirteen years ago and would never go back again." Who would have thought that she could go back one day!
Yuxi laughed when she heard this: "Mother said as if the capital has been captured by us?"
Mother Quan said with a smile: "The prince has even wiped out the fierce North Abductees, so Yan Wushuang is naturally not a problem."
Yuxi shook his head and said: "You can't be proud and complacent just because you have fought a few big victories. Zhou Chuang who guards Hebei and Lou Qingyun who guards Shandong are generals who have made great military exploits in Liaodong. There are also some in the capital. Few famous generals. If you want to conquer the capital, there must be a fierce battle."
Mother Quan didn’t know much about politics, and she was even a layman about the military. When she heard this, Mother Quan asked in surprise: "Does the princess have no confidence?"
Yuxi shook his head and said, "It's not that I have no confidence. But Yan Wushuang is more difficult to deal with than Beijiao. It must be a great price to win the capital." With Yan Wushuang's mind and ability, she would have taken the lead. Opportunities, they may not be the ones who have the upper hand now.
Mother Quan knew what Yuxi meant, and many people would definitely die in this battle. Mother Quan said: "Whatever you do, you have to pay a price. When you calm the world, the people will no longer have to suffer from wars. On the whole, this is a good thing." The change of dynasty is not blood and tears. . Relatively speaking, Yun Qing and Yuxi went smoothly.
Yuxi said: "We have been in a disaster this year, and it is no longer suitable to go to war within three years." The government's silver treasury was exhausted, and her private treasury was also emptied. Without money, this battle cannot be fought.
Mother Quan's thoughts are different from those of Yuxi: "Our side is suffering from disaster, and Yan Wushuang's side is not much better. They are even more difficult than ours."
Yuxi said: "Don't talk about Hebei and Shandong, I am afraid that the capital will not be peaceful." If you can't survive, there is only one way to rebel.
