Chapter 371 Have a good night’s rest

Guard Zhang hurriedly saluted, and before Gu Yuzhi called him to stand up, he straightened up, looked at Gu Yuzhi and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I have brought good news. The master of the Jiange Sect brought back the latest news, saying that it was the prefect of Ningzhou , also came to Huizhou with the prefect of Yunzhou. "

Jiange Gate is in Ningzhou, and Ningzhou and Yunzhou are adjacent.

Although the prefect of Ningzhou has not been sitting on the bench like the prefect of Yunzhou in recent years, the treatment is indeed not very good. After all, whether in commerce or agriculture, Ningzhou cannot compare with Yangzhou, Huizhou and Jiangzhou.

What made the prefect of Ningzhou grudge against the King of Chu was the flood in the south of the Yangtze River.

The continuous rainfall for a month made the prefect of Ningzhou know that if he did not find a solution, there would be floods. Therefore, the prefect of Ningzhou wrote to the King of Chu many times to build river embankments to prevent floods.

Unexpectedly, the King of Chu rejected it several times and even intercepted the letter he sent to the capital.

The prefect of Ningzhou had no other choice but to find ways to provide disaster relief and raised a lot of taxes. Although the people's livelihood was sad, at least no floods were released.

Since then, the prefect of Ningzhou has been resentful of the King of Chu.

And all the subsequent behaviors of King Chu showed that King Chu had thoughts of rebellion.

This time I learned from the Yunzhou Prefect that King Wen had come to Mobei, so he came without any persuasion from the Yunzhou Prefect.

Compared with the King of Chu who only knew how to exploit the people and officials in the fiefdom, King Wen, who had only been in Mobei for a year, discovered that the two main food crops, sweet potatoes and potatoes, were obviously much more popular among the people.

Gu Yuzhi's face was full of surprises. Five states had become four states. Wouldn't their chance of winning become greater again?

Shu Xiaohan, who had never expressed her opinion, couldn't help but burst out laughing, raising her eyebrows with a proud look on her face: "Little prince, I was right before I said it. You are the lucky Emperor of Europe!"

It seems that this matter was all the fault of King Chu himself.

If the King of Chu had paid more attention to Yunzhou and Ningzhou, the magistrates of these two states would not have wanted to join the young prince without any hesitation when they heard the news.

Judging from the scale of the city and the number of city guards that I heard before, the city guards of Ningzhou and Yunzhou have at least a thousand people in total. Plus the number of naval forces they currently have, wouldn't that be four Thousands of people?
Shu Xiaohan scratched his chin, thinking to himself that it wouldn't be a problem for them to attack Jiangzhou now.

Gu Yuzhi felt a little embarrassed and covered the lower half of his face by holding his chin.

But his eyes were wide and round, making him look particularly cute.

Seeing him like this, Guard Zhang and others obviously felt like they were struck by cuteness, and even their voices became much softer when they spoke.

Mr. Huo did not express any opinions on these political affairs. After all, what he was good at was leading troops to fight. He did not want to participate in the game between civil servants and was sitting aside to rest.

After several days of fighting, I was exhausted physically and mentally. After the joy of victory faded, the fatigue could no longer be suppressed.

However, after relaxing for a while, Mr. Huo couldn't help but fell asleep. In such a quiet environment, Mr. Huo's slight snoring was particularly obvious.

Gu Yuzhi looked over with a blank look on his face. Seeing that Mr. Huo was asleep, he chuckled and stepped off the chair lightly. He was about to scare him, but he suddenly stopped halfway.

Because he saw the bruises under Mr. Huo's eyes.

The presence of bruises means that Mr. Huo has not rested for a while.

Gu Yuzhi turned around and put his index finger in front of his lips, making a quiet gesture towards Xie Changshi and others, and then pointed outside the door, indicating that they should go out to the yard to continue the discussion.

Anyway, the Qi Mansion is very safe, and they don't have to worry about the conversation being overheard. A few people walked out quietly, and just as Baoyuezhai delivered dinner, Gu Yuzhi happily took everyone to the main courtyard, ready to feast.

In the past few days, I have eaten several meals at Baoyue Zhai, and there are almost no similar dishes.

For Gu Yuzhi who wants to try everything, this is really good news!
He straightened his back, looked at the fresh food on the table, and listened to the guard's introduction. Gu Yuzhi felt that his saliva was about to flow.

He wiped the corners of his mouth subconsciously, but he felt that if he talked about eating now, they would definitely find out that he was a bit greedy.

Upon seeing this, Xie Changshi hurriedly said: "Your Highness, why don't you start eating? I'm all a little hungry."

Hearing this, Gu Yuzhi's eyes lit up and he smiled and said, "Okay, okay, let's get started."

Gu Yuzhi tasted all the dishes first, and then asked his favorite dishes to be placed in front of him.

He thought for a while and said: "After finishing the meal, everyone should go back and rest first. If there is anything else, we can discuss it tomorrow."

Mr. Huo was so tired that he fell asleep, and Guard Zhang and the others were never idle. They were busy all day and never had a good rest.

No matter how anxious we are about Jiangnan's affairs, we still need to let Guard Zhang and the others take a good rest.

Guard Zhang and others didn't feel it at first, but now they heard His Highness say this, and their tiredness came over them.

Everyone nodded: "Yes, I will listen to His Highness's instructions."

After everyone returned to the room, Gu Yuzhi rubbed his belly and walked around in the garden of Qi Mansion.

The sun was setting at this moment, and the back garden had a different kind of beauty.

Gu Yuzhi looked at this kind of flower and then at that flower, but felt that he had never seen many of them.

Xie Changshi was not there, but fortunately Teacher Shu was there, explaining the varieties of flowers to him bit by bit, which made Gu Yuzhi click his tongue in amazement.

He had been in Mobei for two years, and he often walked around Changzhou City, but he really had never seen these flowers.

One of them talked enthusiastically, and the other listened happily. When the moon rose above the willow trees, Gu Yuzhi yawned and turned back to his room to rest.

When he entered, Mr. Huo still maintained his previous posture, sitting upright and breathing heavily.

Gu Yuzhi's eyes widened and he said silently in surprise: "Mr. Huo is really amazing. After such a long time, he can still sleep in the same position."

Shu Xiaohan was also full of admiration, and only Wen Xiuzhu said: "This is what people who fight abroad all year round are like this. It's good to have a place to sleep."

Gu Yuzhi thought of how Mr. Huo was like this when he was training for survival in the wild with Mr. Huo. He could sleep all night leaning against a tree.

But that's when conditions don't allow it.

Now that they have the conditions, they can't let Mr. Huo sit down and sleep all night, right?

Gu Yuzhi scratched his head, pouted and looked at Wen and Shu, his eyes full of help: "What should I do?"

Wen and Shu had no good solution. They were discussing in whispers, but unexpectedly, Mr. Huo, who seemed to be sleeping soundly, quietly opened his eyes...
