Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 651 Song Culture
"No, no..."

"Daddy brought you a gift back."

"No, I'm going, I'm going..."

King Qin has always been indifferent to this precious son, and he almost responds to every request.He looked at Hua Rong, tentatively: "I sent two guards to watch him..."

Hua Rong said decisively: "Little Hutou, you are not allowed to go! If you are disobedient, mother will be angry!"

Little Tiger saw his mother's face darkened and her mouth flattened, but she didn't dare to cry.

Li Tinglan said softly: "Madam, Majesty, don't worry, I will help third uncle take good care of the little tiger's head."

Two wet nurses also came over. They brought the little tiger head with them since they were young, and treated them as their own sons. Only when the little tiger head grew up in the past two years, did they marry other men on the island and have children.

Uncle Yang came out tremblingly on crutches: "Little Tiger, are you disobedient again? Come quickly, grandpa will take you to find something interesting."

Hua Rong looked at these people, each of them would take good care of Little Hutou, what else could he worry about?

Seeing his grievance, King Qin softened his voice: "Little Hutou, we will be back soon, you are obedient, and when Dad comes back, I will give you whatever you want, and play with you every day, okay?"

Hua Rong also smiled slightly, and patted his head: "Little Tiger, when the enemy is driven away, mother will accompany you every day."

Lu Wenlong, who was behind, ran over with a spear in hand, and said loudly: "Little Tiger, when my brother comes back to teach you martial arts, you can go with us when you become better."

Little Hutou listened to his elder brother the most, so he reluctantly agreed, got down from King Qin's arms, took Yang Sanshu's hand slowly, and watched everyone walk away.

Hua Rong walked a few steps, after all, she was a woman, and looked back at her son, but she was relieved when she saw that he was already messing with a group of children.

Almost everyone on the cruiser was dispatched.King Qin stood on the high deck, looking at all his elites.Behind him stood Hua Rong and Lu Wenlong.Both mother and son carried arrows on their backs, and Lu Wenlong also had two majestic long spears in his hands.After several naval battles, he personally participated in and killed countless enemies. He has become the bravest young general under King Qin's command.

The pirates admired heroes the most. After Lu Wenlong showed his skills, everyone no longer thought that he was the king's son to receive such preferential treatment.

A big flag is raised, and between the sea and the sky, there is a huge "flower" character.

Yellow letters on a red background, with a kind of richness full of style.In the gorgeousness, there is a murderous enthusiasm.

Hua Rong stared at this flag, as if feeling possessed by a soul. In many battles, this flag has been raised, bringing great victories.

What about this time?What will happen this time?

Egret Island.

This is the place where Liu Qi's navy was stationed.

Zhao Deji retreated suddenly, leaving only one instruction, to kill King Qin and others.However, there is no further information on how to arrange it and when the backup will come.

Liu Qi stayed in the big tent every day, bored.

He was originally an army general, not good at water warfare.He was forcibly conscripted to suppress bandits in a hurry. First, there was no legitimate reason, and the teacher came from an unknown; second, the terrain was unfamiliar, and naval warfare was not his strong point; third, His Majesty was unpredictable.Even all the soldiers, even his senior front-line commander, couldn't tell what the meaning of this war was.

Under such circumstances, it is completely unrealistic to mobilize the army to fight to the death.Moreover, most of the teams he took over were Zhang Jun's teams.After taking over, I realized what kind of army Zhang Jun had led all these years, and the discipline was completely corrupted.Not long after the army was stationed, they harassed the surrounding people everywhere. The army was short of women. After serving in the army for three years, the sows became Diao Chan.What they did was not much better than Daikin's army at the time.

Looking back at what the pirates have done, according to Liu Qi's investigation, they have never disturbed the people in these years. On the contrary, they have absorbed a large number of household registrations, reclaimed wasteland, increased fisheries, and developed prosperously.

The common people compared the two, but regarded the imperial army as robbers.

Liu Qi was worried, but he had no time to reform such an army that had been hastily taken over.They could only just sit still and carry out Zhao Deji's order to encircle and not attack, and when the reinforcements arrived, they would completely kill King Qin.

Unexpectedly, King Qin made the first move.

It has been a month and a half since the garrison. King Qin is more accurate than him. The imperial army is almost running out of food and grass, and the morale of the army is very turbulent.

On this day, a spy ran in sweating profusely: "Report to General Liu..."

Liu Qi was overjoyed: "What? The food is coming?"

"It's not good, General Liu, the court's food and grass army was hijacked just after leaving Jianghuai..."

Liu Qi turned pale with shock: "Nonsense, who dares to rob the imperial court's food and pay?"

"The villain doesn't know, there is no clue. It is estimated that it should be a local bandit."

How can there be such a powerful bandit in the local area?
Liu Qi's heart sank. At this time, the robbing of food and grass obviously had an insight into what the court was doing. Who could make such a move?

Which army has such a skill?
Could it be that King Qin still has the support of unknown mysterious forces on the mainland?

He immediately said: "What did the court say?"

"The villain got the news from the underworld. The court hasn't finished yet."

The imperial court has not given any instructions on this?

"Take it easy and don't tell anyone about it."

"Yes. The villain has never told anyone except the general."

The spies withdrew, and Liu Qi immediately summoned several military staff to discuss.

"Right now, there is no more food and grass. If we continue to encircle, we will cut it off before King Qin runs out of food and grass. Everyone, what do you think?"

The crowd was chattering.

"Who hijacked the grain and grass? Who has such a great ability?"

"Can we attack early?"

"Immediately report to the imperial court and ask for reinforcements..."

……

Liu Qi waved his hand, and heard an angry voice from outside, an officer ran in: "General Liu, something is wrong. I heard that the imperial court's grain and grass have been hijacked? The soldiers are not full, and they have already started to make trouble..."

Liu Qi was shocked, who spread the news so quickly?
He led the crowd out immediately, and saw a group of soldiers wrestling in front of a large garrison tent on the island, vying for a bag of steamed buns.

"stop……"

He shouted loudly, but couldn't hold it anymore.

He flew into a rage, drew his knife, and split the nearest contender in two.

Blood flew everywhere, and everyone stopped in shock.

"Your Majesty!"

Dozens of people fighting for it knelt down together.Only then did Liu Qi see a few pieces of paper fluttering on the ground.

A scribe and staff member picked up one and read it out. It turned out to be a leaflet spreading the lack of food and grass for the imperial court.Such leaflets are available in almost every tent.

Liu Qi's face was so gloomy that it was almost watery: "A spies have infiltrated the army. Come on, and investigate thoroughly immediately to find out where the spies are hiding!"

"Yes!"

In the army, an intense and thorough investigation immediately began.

However, this aggravated the panic and uneasiness of the soldiers.Insufficient food and grass, unfavorable deployment, and spies, doomed this war to be too unpopular.

In the middle of the night, more than a dozen suspects were arrested.

One by one knelt on the ground and shouted injustice, but the real result could not be judged.

Liu Qi had no choice but to order to kill all these people.The most urgent task is not to let King Qin see that he is waiting for food and grass to cut off the counterattack, otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.

He wrote a secret letter and asked his most trusted guards to send it out to report to the imperial court. Whether it is war or peace, everything has to wait for His Majesty's instructions.

Just when Liu Qi was panicking, another person was even more disturbed than him.

Huaiyang small town.

A group of people stopped quickly and entered a small inn.

As soon as he sat down and drank a cup of tea, a man in black hurried in: "Master, we found the news that the Song army's imperial court was hijacked..."

Jin Wushu was taken aback: "It really happened?"

"It's true! This batch of food and grass came from Huaiyang, and it took a lot of effort to get it all together. As a result, they were set on fire before they could go out..."

It's burning out!
The robbers couldn't take them away, so after driving away the imperial army, they simply set fire to them all.

It is impossible for the imperial court to collect such a large amount of grain and grass, because it is the season of lean and yellow, and the grain in the south is not yet ripe.

Jin Wushu stood up, with a strange gleam in his eyes: "Could it be that Lu Tisha really did it?"

Wu Qimai reminded him: "How can Lu Tisha have such abilities?"

That's right, such a plan and its precise operation will definitely not be done by one person. On the contrary, it should be completed by an extremely large army with meticulous division of labor and orderly cooperation.

No matter how powerful Lu Tisha's martial arts are, he is still just a monk. How could he do this?
....................................

Moreover, with such precision, how can it be completed with ingenious and meticulous planning?

The more Jin Wushu thought about it, the more frightened he became. He thought he had given King Qin a super gift, but compared with this gift, it was nothing to mention.

Today, things are so complicated and confusing, which is beyond his expectation.

"My lord, the political situation in Song Dynasty is so chaotic, is there something big going to happen?"

Jin Wushu's eyeballs rolled with interest.

What will happen to Song Guozhen?
"Master, should we prepare early?"

Jin Wushu thought for a while, then sat down, took a pen and wrote a secret letter, then sealed it with wax, and handed it to a guard: "Hurry back immediately, and hand it to the wolf master."

"Yes."

As soon as the guard left, he felt relieved.

Wu Qimai said in a low voice: "Such a good opportunity, the wolf lord will not miss it again, right?"

He smiles, who knows!
Opening the window and facing a gust of warm wind, I realized that this spring is coming to an end, and summer has come before I know it.Outside is a typical small bridge and flowing water, the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and weeping willows flickering on the embankment.Here, even the weeping willows are different from those in the north.The weeping willows here are softer and more charming, unlike the northern country, even the willows are full of vicissitudes.

The longer I stay here, the more I like the scenery of this southern country.This was also one of the reasons why he didn't want to go back to lead the army in person, and he would rather stay here day and night.

At that time, people ridiculed Zhao Deji, and the warm wind made the tourists drunk, so they called Hangzhou Bianzhou.It turns out that this place in the south of the Yangtze River is really a town of ecstasy and bone-biting, where heroes have fallen. I hope that beautiful women in pink and light boats will be willing to do gold and iron horses when they have nothing to do?It’s no wonder that nomads are the first to initiate every war. It’s bitter cold outside the Great Wall, and the Central Plains is comfortable and prosperous. Who wouldn’t want a share of the action?

He turned his head and looked at the books on the table. Apart from Su Dongpo, Wang Anshi, Li Yi'an, Xin Qiji... The culture and splendor of the Song Dynasty, after the Jingkang change and the Huaiyang fire, unexpectedly rose so quickly.
