Chapter 538;

"Qiu Shuang, you will go to Grandpa's side later, let him explain, and pay more attention to the movement in various places."

Although it seems that Emperor Hongwen is in control of Gyeonggi now, he has won a hard-won victory.

But Lord Zhen Guo was let out, and Bei Chu's large army suppressed the territory this time, which was also strange.

She always had a feeling that the turbulent waves hidden under the calm water were about to sweep Dongzhou.

"Yes, servant girl is going now."

Today's Lu family has expanded a lot outwards through the channels of imperial officials, and its manpower has almost spread over half of Dongzhou.

Although there are not many people in each place, it is not a big problem to collect some information.

When Mr. Lu got Qiushuang's message, he immediately told Lu Xiu to pass it on.

Almost everyone in Dongzhou knows that the army of Northern Chu is suppressing the border, and the grievances between Northern Chu and Dongzhou are not a secret.

Once the war breaks out, I'm afraid it won't subside in a short while. Thinking back to the beginning of the founding of Dongzhou, the two countries fought all the year round. Mr. Lu experienced that period and also saw the situation in Dongzhou at that time.

Although it is not to say that the people are not living in poverty, it is definitely very difficult.

At that time, the Lu family had just started, with few properties, and the rapid closing was not affected too deeply, but it was indeed in a downturn for a while.

Nowadays, the Lu family has a lot of industries, and they are scattered in many places. If you don't pay attention in advance and plan early, I am afraid that it will really explode when the time comes, and it will be a big blow to the Lu family.

And it will directly make the efforts of the past two years all in vain.

Therefore, he attaches great importance to this matter.

For a period of time after that, every day there would be news from various places, and Lu Yaoyao would check them one by one.

And news about the north from Hou Si's side will often be passed back.

Lord Zhen Guo has been in the north for more than a month, and has fought many battles with Beichu, with mixed results, but the battles all took place in Dongzhou, so Dongzhou's losses will be relatively large.

No, a small city was lost on the northern border of the last battle.

King Jin has been hiding in the north all this time, but nothing happened.

"Why do you feel that Lord Zhen is playing with Bei Chu?"

"I lost the city for a while, and regained it for a while, so there was no real progress."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao smiled lightly, and said, "It's just that everyone has their own ghosts."

From the news that Hou Si sent back earlier, she had already obtained confirmation that some of Duke Zhen Guo's subordinates were frequently traveling with Bei Chu.

This time, Northern Chu's sudden invasion of the army, or Duke Zhen's plan, was to break away from the vortex of the capital.

As for what conditions he promised Bei Chu, Hou Si didn't find out.

However, she thought, it was nothing more than to allow Bei Chu to reap some benefits from Dongzhou before actually attacking Dongzhou.

Either the city, or the consumption of Dongzhou in advance, so that the follow-up will be unsustainable.

The war is about money and food, and the constant consumption is not a good thing for Dongzhou.

As for Duke Zhen, he still had hope. In other words, he also knew that cooperating with Bei Chu was seeking skin from a tiger. Now that he had left the capital, he didn't want to cooperate sincerely.

He has always regarded Dongzhou as something in his pocket, so after achieving his goal, he also started to fight Tai Chi with Bei Chu.

As for Bei Chu, perhaps they also knew that it was impossible to just take it down, so they changed it to consume Dongzhou.

At the same time, Duke Zhen's contact this time also let Bei Chu see a major problem within Dongzhou.

It is not so anxious to start a full-scale war.

"My lord, what exactly does Lord Zhen mean? You can defeat Bei Chu in one fell swoop, why did you stop at the critical moment?"

Yan Yi didn't understand what Duke Zhen meant.

"It's not easy. If Bei Chu retreats, he will have to return to the imperial court. He left the capital with great difficulty. How could he just go back like this?"

King Jin was not at all surprised by Duke Zhen's performance these few times.

However, he was a little surprised that Bei Chu could ignore Duke Zhen's reneging on his promise.

According to his investigation during this period, Lord Zhen Guo did have some cooperation with Bei Chu, but it seems that after Lord Zhen Guo left the capital, something changed.

He wasn't surprised that the Zhen Guo Guild was like this, but he didn't quite understand that Bei Chu didn't pursue it and didn't make a fuss.

To be honest, he was waiting for Bei Chu to make trouble.

In this way, he can seize this opportunity to make things big and make those soldiers under Lord Zhen Guo who still have their hearts in Dongzhou turn against him.

At that time, he will attack again in one fell swoop, take down Zhen Guogong, take over the entire north, and at the same time resist the enemy.

Now that Beichu is like this, he can't find a chance. After all, Duke Zhen is already fighting with Beichu, and Beichu doesn't say a word about cooperation.

Even if he spread the word, I'm afraid he won't get any good results. Instead, he will startle the snake and make Duke Zhen vigilant, or take that step directly.

So now he can only wait for the opportunity.

Fight for this time to take down Lord Zhen Guo completely, only in this way can Dongzhou be stabilized.

"Then what are we going to do?"

"Wait."

King Jin picked up his teacup with a smile, took a sip, and looked up in the direction of Dongzhou Capital.

"Tell me, what has she been doing recently?"

Hearing this, Yan Yi was startled at first, apparently not reacting to his sudden question.

However, he soon noticed that his eyes had been looking at the capital, and he immediately understood.

"Princess, the whole day is either busy with building the villa, or cooking and eating, or sitting leisurely in a rocking chair and drinking tea."

King Jin was taken aback by his words, thinking about what Lu Yaoyao had done in the past, it seemed to be just a few points.

He laughed immediately, shook his head and said, "You're right."

"However, the subordinates feel that the princess may do one more thing now."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"I must be missing the prince. I haven't seen you for more than a month. I must miss you a little, right?"

"Huh? Is that so?"

King Jin's eyes lit up, and he felt that what he said made sense.

"That's for sure. The princess seems to be calm, but in fact, he keeps many things in his heart and is not good at showing it."

"Although the subordinates didn't get to know the princess by the prince's side from the very beginning, but in the later period, the subordinates can also feel that the princess's eyes look at the prince more and more differently."

"Maybe she doesn't know how to express it, but it's normal. After all, she is a woman, and she is very reserved in this regard."

"You're right, not bad, you."

Lu Yaoyao seldom showed so much intimacy with him, many times, he felt as if the two of them were friends.

But he is not a friend, and he can actually perceive what Yan Yi perceives.

It's just that she doesn't say it, and he can't say too intimate things, worrying that she will be unhappy.

 Recently, the author is a little bit uncomfortable. I will update it first in the past two days, and when it gets better later, I will resume two updates! !Sorry everyone! !
