"Don't be rude." At this moment, a gentle voice came over. The voice sounded gentle and peaceful, with a little bit of laziness, unhurried.

But after listening carefully, one could feel a chill creeping up from the soles of the feet, making one shiver from the cold.

This man is an extremely dangerous man, this is Ye Qing's first feeling.

Ye Qing looked up again, and finally understood why he felt that this person looked familiar.

He and Dongfang Xuan have a five-point resemblance. Judging from the scene, he should be a member of the royal family.

This woman is not simple, this is Ye Qing's first impression on Dongfang Hao.

Dongfang Hao, the son of Concubine Shu.

When Wang Wei, Generalissimo of the Northwest Army, had an accident, because he was the prince's uncle, many people said that Dongfang Xuanhuan was revoked as the prince and recommended Dongfang Hao as the new prince.

It's just because of various reasons, plus the empress's active running, Dongfang Xuan defeated Beidi because he went out for the emperor, and included Beidi into Dongling's territory, so no one can shake his crown prince.

In this way, Dongfang Hao's dream of being a prince was shattered, but his status in the entire Dongling was absolutely awesome.

In Qinghua City, his power is above the city lord, no wonder the guards said their master is Wang Fa.

Ye Qing was not afraid at all, and looked at the man coldly.

"Come here, drag this idiot down, and deal with it by military law."

The flat voice fell, and suddenly, the man on the horse gave the order to dispose of the guard.

The man seemed to have no regard for the guard's life at all.

Of course, just such a man who controls life and death cares so much about these things?

Immediately, someone dragged the guard down, and everyone's hearts were raised in their throats. This man is really terrifying. What is his background?
Return military law to deal with, isn't it the minister who has military law?
This is Qinghua City, where did the troops come from?
If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it, anyway, it has nothing to do with these little people.

It wasn't until the team walked away for a long time that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, their lives were saved.

"Thank you girl, thank you for saving my Bao'er, Bao'er, hurry up and kneel down to your benefactor."

Wiping her tears, the child's mother pulled the newly saved child and walked towards Ye Qing. Without saying anything, she just knelt on the ground and was about to kowtow.

Ye Qing quickly pulled her up: "Sister-in-law, you're welcome, as long as the child is fine, take him back quickly, I'm afraid he will be frightened."

After thanking her a thousand times, the woman took the child and left.

She gave the money, although she still had some money, but it was out of her heart.

Ye Qing refused: "Life is priceless, save the money to buy some delicious food for the children."

For this little episode, Ye Qing didn't take it seriously, turned around and entered the rice shop.

There are many people in the distribution center, and every time you buy food, it is a big expense.

Ye Qing grows very little food, and most of the land is used to grow melons, fruits and vegetables, which is easier to get money for.

Without hybridization technology, the yield of the food grown is very low, so the food in this era is very expensive.

However, the unintentional words of the rice shop boss caught her attention.

"Girl, I'm sorry, but the price of food has gone up. Since you are a regular customer, I can only give you a discount of one penny per catty. For other scattered customers, I will not drop a penny." The owner of the rice shop is very sorry said.

Ye Qing was taken aback: "Why did the price suddenly increase?"

The food price increase this time was exaggerated, and it directly increased by three pennies.

Some people may think it doesn't matter, but buying so many like Ye Qing's is a lot of money.

The owner of the rice shop sighed: "We don't know, anyway, what is the purchase price?"

These grains were all brought in from other places, and he didn't know which middleman they belonged to.

Ye Qing was silent for a moment: "How much food do you have here? Sell it all to me."

"No way, why do you want so much?"

"Eat it!"

The owner of the rice shop wanted to say, you are a pig, but you held back after thinking about it, you are a fool if you have money but don’t make money.

The batch of grain that just came in was emptied immediately.

I don't know if the owner of Mipu is happy or not, but the proprietress is very happy. Seeing her smiling so hard, she urges the boss to buy goods quickly.

Seeing cart after cart of grain being pulled into the store, Jiang Da saw the problem at a glance, and asked Ye Qing quietly: "Miss Ye, what happened?"

Ye Qing said solemnly: "I have a bad feeling, let's stock up on food first."

Jiang Da was taken aback: "What premonition?"

Ye Qing shook his head: "It's hard to say, the matter hasn't reached that point yet, and I haven't received any definite news. Send me an order, and all the shops in the city should stock up on food immediately."

After arranging everything, Ye Qing returned to Qingfeng Town non-stop, and began to purchase a large amount of supplies.

Take advantage of this time to hoard what you can hoard quickly.

In fact, this is not a long-term solution. No matter how rich she is, it is impossible for her to hoard supplies for the next year or even a few years.

Another disadvantage of hoarding grain is that it disrupts the current market price and causes public panic.

However, unexpectedly, within two days, someone came to the door.

The person who came was Sun Shiping, and the news he brought was that the war was about to break out.

Ye Qing frowned, and said in surprise: "Where did Mr. Sun hear the news?"

It seemed that this really confirmed her hunch.

Sun Shiping told the news he had received: "Miss Ye, why do you not know that it is no longer a day or two for Zhaoguo to provoke our border. This matter has been spread in the capital for a long time. I heard that the imperial court has sent a large number of troops. Went to the border, this time led by Marshal Lu.

Hurry up and stock up on food while the food supply has not soared. "

Snail noodles are made of rice, and the price of food has risen, so snail noodles will also rise accordingly.

Ye Qing knew that Marshal Lu and those who had been in the army knew more or less about these big men.

Back then, Wang Wei was stationed in the northwest, and Marshal Lu was stationed at Jianmen Pass when he was young.

Later, he was transferred back to the capital and was garrisoned by the younger generation of generals.

If he is dispatched, does it mean that the border has been lost?Otherwise, how could they send veterans to the battlefield.

It's far away from the capital, and with no connections, Ye Qing has no idea what's going on under the sun.

By the time they hear the news, the battle may be over.

Ye Qing is just a businessman now, with no power or power, his only prayer is that the war will not spread to the south of the Yangtze River, and everyone will be safe.

...

In Gongsun's ancestral hall, the current patriarch, Gongsun Zhuo, handed over a token to Gongsun Baili.

With a solemn face and a low tone, he said slowly: "Baili, now I hand over the token symbolizing the head of the family to you, which means I hand over the entire family to you. disappointment.

In fact, my worries are superfluous. The family that has been silent for a hundred years is re-recognized by the world because of you. "

The ancestors of Gongsun had the merits of following the dragon, but after the founding emperor ascended the throne, he regarded the Gongsun family as a thorn in his side and wanted to eradicate it as soon as possible.

It's just that the ancestors have a secret weapon, and that is the Longxiao team, which is one against one hundred. There are not many people in this team, only a few thousand people.

Followed the elder Gongsun to conquer the north and south, and made great military exploits.

However, after the war, this force disappeared without a trace.

Emperor Dongling couldn't find this team no matter what, so he didn't dare to deal with the descendants of Gongsun blatantly.

Gongsun Baili raised his hands flat, took the token, and looked at it calmly.

"Baili, from now on, the Dragon Roaring Team will completely obey your orders. Do whatever you want without worrying about it."

Gongsun Baili frowned, and after a long time, he nodded slowly: "Yes!"

"Are you all ready?"

"Father, don't worry, everything has been arranged properly."

"En." Gongsun Zhuo lowered his head slightly, turned his head, kowtowed to the ancestor's spiritual tablet, and offered incense. His luxurious robes were dragged on the ground, and faint incense ash was rolled up.

Seeing that Gongsun Zhuo was about to get up, Gongsun Baili hurried forward to support Gongsun Zhuo's arm, his tone was indifferent, as if he was casually saying: "Father, what chances do we have in this war?"

"Heh..." Gongsun Zhuo laughed in a low voice, and there was irony in his laughter: "There is no layer."

Gongsun Zhuo continued: "The Kingdom of Zhao covers a vast area, and the people are tough. Although the climate is bitter and cold, it connects Simon and Kingdom Chen. In addition, Simon has long been ready to move towards Dongling. In the past two years, in order to prevent war, the court has Another marriage, and a lot of money sent over, it's just useless.

The reason Zhaoguo dared to launch a war was because of the support of these two countries. If there is no accident, once the war breaks out, the three countries will attack us together.

The army will go ahead without moving food and grass, just watch, the imperial decree will definitely come down in these two days, asking our Gongsun family to contribute money and efforts. "

Gongsun Zhuo took a deep breath and said lightly: "After all these years, the Dongfang lineage is still unwilling to give up. They must find out the Longxiao team and insist on driving us to a dead end, so we must be mentally prepared this time."

...

One of Dongling's lieutenants, Li Xiang, rebelled and joined forces with the enemy to besiege Dongling's army. Marshal Lu was seriously injured when he led his troops to break out of the encirclement, and the Jianmen Pass was critical.

Mutiny.

Marshal Lu was seriously injured.

Jianmen is in danger.

A series of military information was rushed to the capital by eight hundred miles.

In the imperial study room, there was a lot of noise.

The civil official said: "Your Majesty, the outbreak of war has caused people to die and people to be displaced... So in order to prevent the tragedy from happening again, I sent people to negotiate a peace."

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

The general quit, and directly swears: "Fuck you, you cowards, you know how to negotiate peace all day long, are you still men?"

"Are you worthy of the general who died by the enemy's knife?"

"You are all cowards, I look down on you."

An old general, General Chen, knelt down: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead troops to Jianmen Pass to reinforce Marshal Lu."

"Your Majesty, the last general is also willing to go to Jianmen Pass to defend against the enemy with Marshal Lu."

A middle-aged man in armor next to General Chen also knelt down and asked to go out.

"I really didn't expect that Li Xiang would turn traitor. I, Dong Ling, have always been kind to him. How could he do such a heartless and ungrateful thing? This old man is really mad!"

An old man cursed angrily, wishing he could arrest Li Xiang immediately and beat him up.

"A wolf-hearted thing, if I catch him, I have to hack him to death."

The middle-aged man couldn't help but cursed just now.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to hesitate any longer. Let the old minister send troops to reinforce now, otherwise Marshal Lu may not be able to resist the opponent's 20-odd army."

General Chen was in a hurry. Time is life, and the battlefield is changing rapidly.

"emperor."

It was those civil servants who spoke again: "Your Majesty, absolutely not, Zhaoguo has strong soldiers and horses, and we can't beat them at all. Is this sending someone to die?"

Old General Chen stood up and scolded loudly: "Is it because of you literati that you literati exist to destroy your own prestige? It doesn't matter if you are afraid of death. We dignified men of seven feet would rather die in battle than compromise. "

The emperor looked around and asked Dongfang Xuan directly: "Xuan'er, what do you think?"

Dongfang Xuan took two steps forward and said respectfully: "In my opinion, this Li Xiang is probably a pawn that they have already arranged for our army. Now the time has come to kill our army by surprise. If you guess correctly, There must still be traitors in the barracks."

The emperor frowned: "Do you think this plan is a trap set by the enemy?"

Dongfang Xuan: "It must be, otherwise Marshal Lu would not be injured."

The emperor: "What do you think?"

Next, there was another long speech by the civil servants, chattering endlessly.

Military generals are already stupid, so they can't talk about them at all.

After arguing for a long time without saying that they would send troops, the general couldn't bear it anymore.

"Your Majesty, you should send the last general there. The last general will definitely cut off Li Xiang's head and send it to you, as well as those bastards from Zhao Kingdom."

General Chen knelt down again, hoping to lead his troops out.

Seeing General Chen's enthusiasm, the civil servants began to strongly object: "Old Chen, how old are you this year, and you still want to go to war, aren't you afraid of dying on the road?"

General Chen: "This old man would rather die on the road than allow Zhao's army to step into Dongling's territory."

"Cut, let's go, you seem to be very capable."

The emperor glanced at the map again, thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "Now that the war is so critical, Dongling doesn't have enough financial resources to support it."

The treasury is empty and cannot withstand another war.

The soldiers of Zhao State were strong and well-prepared, and when they made a move, Marshal Lu was injured. This disarming power is enough to disturb the morale of the army.

General Chen immediately knelt down.

"Your Majesty, please make an order, the general is willing to go to Jianmen Pass!"

The Minister of the Household Department, who had been silent for a long time, spoke: "Your Majesty, a few years ago, because of the Beidi War, the national treasury was already depleted. Although the war was won and a lot was recovered, it still couldn't make up for such a big vacancy. In addition, Simon, the treasury is exhausted."

"What should I do?"
