The prince is five and a half years old, and he is reclaiming land and becoming a group favorite.

Statewide?

Gu Yuzhi patted his head gently, and after a while he thought about it and let out a long oh.

Although they have always said that Li Ji Trading Company may be colluding with people in Quanzhou, but in the more than a year since he came, except for the first time when the reward given to him by the emperor's brother was robbed, and the prefect of Quanzhou sent Yamen to help, they There is no intersection.

That Quanzhou prefect, not to mention writing letters and greetings to him on a regular basis, did not even send him gifts during the New Year and holidays.

It feels as if Quanzhou is not a state capital in Mobei.

Gu Yuzhi scratched his head: "Then, have you sent anyone to Quanzhou?"

Zhang Yuankai nodded and said: "Yes! But the news has not been sent back yet. Your Highness, when I was in Jinzhou this time, I seemed to have heard a little news about Quanzhou."

Not only Gu Yuzhi, but also Xie Changshi and others had not heard of this news, and they all looked over after hearing this.

“The whole state seems to be on lockdown.”

This was what Zhang Yuankai overheard in a discussion between several merchants.

Quanzhou was the first barrier for the Sang Dynasty to fight against Beidi. There were hundreds of thousands of Mobei troops stationed there. Quanzhou's food consumption was the largest in the entire Mobei state capital.

Therefore, the grain stores across the state do the best business, and it was these grain stores that discovered something was wrong.

They consume food very quickly and have to go to Jinzhou to buy grain in large quantities almost every month. But this time, it seems that the grain stores across the state have not gone to Jinzhou to buy food for almost two months.

One of them mentioned a statewide lockdown.

But no one believed this, because they all believed that there was no plague in the whole state, so how could the city be closed down?

Zhang Yuankai didn't take it seriously after hearing it. After all, Xinliang and Quanzhou were so close. If there was such a big movement in Quanzhou, it was impossible for them not to know about it!

But thinking about it today, he also noticed something was wrong.

During this period, there were indeed no commercial firms traveling to the state.

Hearing the news, Gu Yuzhi also felt extremely unbelievable. He opened his big eyes hard and felt a little dry for a while, then he quickly blinked: "If the whole state is closed, what is the reason? Did the Beidi people come in? "

He circled it vigorously with his index finger and pursed his lips tightly. He couldn't tell what he was thinking.

He seemed to be very scared, but he also felt that if the Beidi people really came, he would definitely go to the battlefield.

Gu Yuzhi instantly recalled the scene of the robbery and murder, and his lips trembled.

The fingers were tightly intertwined, and it took a while before they finally calmed down, looking eagerly at Xie Changshi and Guard Qi.

Xie Changshi shook his head slightly: "Probably not. We have lived in Xinliang for such a long time, and we have never seen any smoke ignited."

Huo Qiyuan also spoke at this time: "If Beidi attacks, not only will the city not be closed, but military reports will be sent to the emperor as soon as possible, and supplies such as grain and grass will be mobilized to ensure that the front line will not fall into the dilemma of lack of food and grass."

Gu Yuzhi's expression softened, he tapped his head lightly, and murmured in a low voice: "Mr. Huo has taught me this before. When fighting, before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first. How could I forget it?"

He clenched his little fists and secretly vowed to encourage the people in his fiefdom to cultivate more wasteland.

Not only does he want to ensure the food for the people of Xinliang, he also wants to find ways to hoard more food and serve as the state's granary in the future!

Gu Yuzhi's eyes were rolling, and he was thinking about where it would be more suitable to build the granary.

Others didn't know what Gu Yuzhi was thinking in his heart, but he was talking about the situation in the whole state.

There must be no epidemic in Quanzhou, otherwise it would be impossible for the prefect of Quanzhou not to send people for help. It’s not an invasion from Beidi, so why is the entire state closed?

The most important thing is, what do the hundreds of thousands of Mobei troops across the state rely on to survive these months of lockdown?

Within a moment, Xie Changshi's face completely darkened.

When did the inexplicable lockdown of Quanzhou begin, who gave the order, and what is the current state of the people in Quanzhou and the Mobei Army...

If the Beidi people knew that the entire state was under lockdown, would they send troops south?

Xie Changshi closed his eyes and thought about all the bad things for a while.

He stepped forward and explained to Gu Yuzhi in a low voice the possible consequences of the inexplicable lockdown of the whole state. After hearing this, Gu Yuzhi sat upright, and his head, which was still a little drowsy, suddenly became clear.

His Xinliang has not been built yet, and the granary has not been filled. How can the Beidi people come here?

Gu Yuzhi furrowed his eyebrows and pouted and said: "Guard Guard Qi, Guard Qi, take my token and go to Quanzhou. If Quanzhou is really closed down, ask the Quanzhou city defenders to open the door and let them That prefect..."

He looked at Xie Changshi and heard Xie Changshi whisper: "Ke Liangyi."

He nodded his head and continued: "Yes, yes, Magistrate Ke. When the city gate opens, you ask Magistrate Ke to come to Changzhou to meet me."

He hummed twice, raised his head and said, "If Xinliang's defenders don't open the door, I will write a letter to the emperor and ask him to send troops for reinforcements."

"And that Magistrate Ke, if you dare not come to see me, I will..."

He tilted his head and thought for a while: "I'd better write a letter to Brother Huang and give him a copy."

Magistrate Ke didn't come to see me during the Chinese New Year, so he might be a bad guy too!

Anyway, Xie Changshi said that although the prince cannot interfere in local government affairs, in emergencies, the prince's token can order local officials.

That's why Liu Dianyi and the others asked Gu Yuzhi for a token after he woke up, and used it to order the Mobei prefectures to arrest the remnants of Li Ji Trading Company.

Qi Chenglang and Zhang Yuankai looked at each other, and when Zhang Yuankai nodded without any trace, he clasped his hands and said, "I obey."

The rest of the things had nothing to do with him as a general. After taking the token from Liu Dianyi, Qi Chenglang headed to Quanzhou without stopping.

After Qi Chenglang left, Zhang Yuankai continued to report on what was going to happen next. In addition to Changzhou, Dingzhou and Qizhou had also received confirmed news, eradicating the remnants of Li Ji Trading Company.

Gu Yu knew it, and simply sat up cross-legged, supporting his chin with his elbows, and his whole body seemed to be stacked on top of each other: "What about Qingzhou? Didn't I say before that the prefect of Qingzhou had a broken leg? The emperor's brother was transferred to the new Qingzhou Magistrate? Also, has the governor of Mobei taken office?"

He sighed like a young adult: "Hey, there are too many things. I actually forgot two such important things."

After such a long time, the emperor brother should have made arrangements, right?

Regardless of whether it is the prefect of Qingzhou or the governor of Mobei, the imperial brother will definitely not let the king of Chu succeed. By then, only the entire state of Mobei will not be under his control.

But he couldn't be anxious.

Xie Changshi said that haste makes waste, and Teacher Shu also said that one cannot eat hot tofu in a hurry.

In one year, he made several other state capitals in Mobei belong to the imperial brother. He is already very powerful!
