After being exiled, I led my whole family to rebel.

Wang Sanniang frowned and hesitated to speak. Finally, she felt that she should tell Xu Zhenying about the rumors so that Xu Zhenying could take precautions. "City Lord, I will go back this time to hear from my mother that there are rumors in the city that you are a girl! You are naturally gentle and don't have long hair, so it is easy for people to misunderstand you. Now you are wearing a woman's dress. If other people see it, won't they get angry again?"

Xu Zhenying was slightly startled.

When had there been such rumors in the city?

She has never deliberately hidden her identity as a woman. Although she shows herself in men's clothing, she just finds it convenient to wear men's clothing. But in the final analysis, it is the convenience of a man’s identity.

But paper cannot contain the fire after all.

Her identity will be revealed sooner or later.

However, the people who were exiled to Qianzhou with them were all honest and reliable, and they should not be so talkative.

Xu Zhenying asked one more question: "What else are the rumors saying?"

"I didn't say anything else. I just said that you are a girl and it is inappropriate to show your face. I think this rumor seems to be fueled by someone with intentions behind it. City Lord, you have to guard against-"

"Oh, no need, I am indeed a woman."

……

Wang Sanniang froze on the spot.

Xu Zhenying said: "I just think that men's clothing is convenient for doing things, so I often wear men's clothing to show off to others."

Wang Sanniang's brain seemed to have stopped functioning instantly.

Wait, what did she just hear?

The city lord...she is a woman?

The little flame of her invisible first love was just extinguished?

Also, why were her hands faster than her brain? By the time she reacted, her hands were already covering the city lord's chest!

Oh my god, what is she doing-

Obviously, Xu Zhenying was also stunned.

The two people, both pairs of eyes, opened their eyes a little inaudibly.

The atmosphere suddenly became weird and awkward.

Xu Zhenying coughed, gently moved her hand away, and said seriously: "I'm not as big as you, so I have to touch your own!"

"City Lord, I...I didn't mean it!" Wang Sanniang's face suddenly burned crimson, and she didn't even know where to put her hands and feet!

God, the city lord is really a woman!

How can there be such a strong woman in this world!

The fact that Xu Zhenying was a woman shocked Wang Sanniang. Her eyes were a little dull, as if she could not digest the matter.

But what Xu Zhenying said next made her unable to calm down for a long time, causing her to suffer from insomnia for several nights.

Xu Zhenying said with a smile: "The reason why you don't believe that I am a woman is because you subconsciously think that girls shouldn't show their faces like me, right?"

"No, it's not." Wang Sanniang defended hastily, "I think there is no girl in the world who can be like this...such..."

"how?"

"So daring to be the first in the world! So brave! So happy and carefree and don't care about the eyes of the world!"

Xu Zhenying smiled, "You see, I have taught you gender equality lessons for so long, and I have always encouraged you not to belittle yourselves, but deep down in your hearts, you still feel that making contributions is a matter for men. Sanniang, what are you girls? Only then can we become a truly mentally strong person! It seems that we still have a long way to go.”

Wang Sanniang was immediately ashamed! I just want to get in through the cracks in an orderly manner.

Yes, the city lord, as a woman, dared to attack the city, dared to build a women's barracks, and encouraged women to read and practice calligraphy. Isn't all this just for the women in the world to be able to stand on their own?

Even though Wang Sanniang has been in the army for more than four months, she feels that she is completely different from other pretty girls in the world. But now she thinks about how she was not one of them, and why she despises those who have not been transformed in her heart. girl?

Xu Zhenying finally found a place to change her clothes. It was actually because the women's clothes were too complicated, making it inconvenient for riding, walking, or working.

Therefore, Xu Zhenying also secretly made up his mind to change the women's clothes after returning. These clothes simply trapped the women, making them have to behave chastely and unable to escape when they encountered danger.

By the way, this hair needs to be cut too.

Xu Zhenying really couldn't bear the disheveled hair when the weather was hot, especially since the women of the Zhou Dynasty had their hair above their waists, and it took a lot of effort to take care of it and tie it up.

Since she encourages girls to go out of the house, she must create a suitable social environment, otherwise there is no use just shouting slogans.

Xu Zhenying made up her mind to twist her hair when the weather got hot.

Not even if the King of Heaven comes.

The team transporting grain and grass traveled all day and night, and it was already late at night when they returned to Lan County.

Although there was no curfew in Lan County, it was already late at night when they arrived, so there was almost no one in the city except for the guards on the wall.

After entering the city, Miao received orders in advance and was already waiting here with more than a hundred strong men.

As soon as Xu Zhenying's food came through the door, there were uncontrollable cheers under the city wall!

Even Mrs. Miao looked excited. She never expected that Xu Zhenying actually got so much when he said he went out to get food.

Where did this come from?

Miao was different from the past. At this moment, she was more or less aware that the source of food and grass was wrong. She didn't ask before and after walking up, but just said: "We have been traveling for two days and two nights, and we all went to rest. I brought people to change with you. You guys Go get something to eat first! In the backyard of the county government office, your second aunt has asked someone to prepare a meal. You will start cooking as soon as you get there, go quickly! "

Xu Zhenying shouted to the brothers, "Zhou Bo, take them down to eat and rest. You have all worked hard. Go back and have a good sleep tonight. You will be given a day off tomorrow."

Wang Sanniang immediately said: "Thank you City Lord for your kindness. There has been a shortage of people at the demonstration base. I am ready to lead troops to support."

Zhou Bo glanced at Wang Sanniang and said: "In that case, I will also bring some male soldiers to support. We have some experience in dividing fields in Ye County before, maybe we can help Xiao Shuangye."

"Okay, you can do it yourself, and take care of yourself while working."

The city gate is very lively tonight.

Although the city was quiet, those who were interested could still hear the continuous cheers and the commotion of carriages and horses.

Miao took more than a hundred strong men to put the carts of grain and grass into the warehouse, and took several aunts to count them several times. The grain and grass area was brightly lit, and there were constant shadows of people, just like it was daytime.

This incident naturally alarmed the Xu family's political affairs team. Xu Yinxi and Qian Zhenniang had already gone to bed, but at this moment they hurriedly walked out of the room wearing a coat and messy hair, and carrying a lantern. Half the city reaches Lan County.

It turned out to be a coincidence. When I was about to go to the granary, I saw a few familiar people on the corner of the street.

Fang Xun, Fang Ningmo, Qian Zhenniang, cousin, Mo Jinchun and others.

They all described themselves as embarrassed, and it was obvious from a glance that they were in a hurry to go out.

Everyone looked at each other, and then smiled in a tacit understanding.

Xu Yinxi said: "I heard that the city lord took people out to get food two days ago. There was a commotion in the city tonight, so I thought it must be the city lord and the others who were back. I thought I was the only one who was awake and waiting for the news. It turns out you guys I'm waiting." Fang asked: "Lan County is about to run out of food and grass, how can we not be anxious. It's you guys!"

Although Fang Xun was young, after these few months of experience, he was quite dignified. He looked around at the girls and scolded: "This is even more revealing. You dare to go out alone. What if you encounter danger?"

Qian Zhenniang smiled: "Master Fang, although you care about our girl's family, don't forget that we are also colleagues. What's more, there is peace in Lan County now, and girls dare to go out alone at night, why don't we dare ? If Xiao Xiao dares to come, the dagger in my hand will be enough to see blood!"

Cousin Xu Huijia looked at Qian Zhenniang, who was smiling but confident, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Fang Ningmo also laughed, "Look at our sister Zhenniang, she didn't even dare to kill a chicken before, but now she dares to kill someone!"

Fang Xun also sighed helplessly, "You guys, after following the city lord, you have become more and more courageous!"

"The City Lord has given us the ability to settle down and live in peace. If we are still as timid as before, won't we live up to the City Lord's good wishes?" Xu Yinxi interrupted everyone at the right time and urged, "Quickly, let's go and check the situation first, Fourth Aunt We definitely need help over there too.”

Mo Jinchun followed behind, but said nothing.

He knew very well that he was following Xu Zhenying, and was not yet a core member of the government team, so he was mostly polite to them, and it was more like a subordinate being polite to his superiors.

Mo Jinchun rarely spoke about anything they talked about.

He is currently helping organize the affairs of Ye County's land allocation. Although he has done a good job, after all, the city lord has many capable people, and he has not been given a particularly prominent opportunity.

Several people hurried towards the granary.

Miao's and others' voices could be heard far away.

As I got closer, I saw that there were people inside, and the surroundings of the granary were illuminated with torches, as bright as day, illuminating the busy figures of countless people.

What was piled up at the door like a mountain blocking everyone's view was the food that Xu Zhenying had brought back.

They carried it on their shoulders or pushed it on carts, and soon the granary was full again.

Xu Yinxi couldn't help being shocked and said subconsciously: "God, how much food and grass have been brought back!"

Who among those present could not be amazed?

The food crisis is like a sharp sword hanging over everyone's heads. No matter how hard everyone works, no one can come up with a solution.

But today, looking at the piles of grain and grass piled up like mountains, everyone couldn't help but admire and fear Xu Zhenying.

Fang Xun then answered: "City Lord...it's really..."

He really couldn't find the words to describe it.

He even wanted to describe it as unpredictable, but when he remembered that Xu Zhenying had said that he was an atheist, he stopped in time.

"City Lord!"

Fang Ningmo's sharp eyes suddenly saw Xu Zhenying's figure.

At this time, Xu Zhenying was sitting casually on the steps, holding a bowl without any image. The bowl was boiled with Yangchun noodles. Some of the clear soup was not watery, but she "snored" and ate it deliciously.

Xu Yinxi immediately said angrily: "Where are the logistics people? The city lord finally came back, how can he cope with it just by eating a bowl of Yangchun noodles?!"

Mrs. Miao stood not far away, with her head lowered and holding a pencil to register the grain. She didn't even raise her head when she heard Xu Yinxi's question, "She wants to eat by herself. It's convenient. What are you afraid of? You city lord can't starve." !”

Xu Yinxi felt a little embarrassed and said: "Fourth Aunt, you have worked hard tonight."

Mrs. Miao then raised her eyelids, looked at the thinly dressed little girls in front of her, frowned and scolded: "I told you, she will come back tonight. Why are you all so anxious?" Qian Zhen Mom, where are your socks? Xu Yinxi, how do you behave with disheveled hair? Fang Xun, you ran out without even wearing a robe!"

The faces of those whose names were called turned red, and they immediately became as submissive as quails, daring not to answer.

That's the city lord's mother.

After these few months of experience, coupled with the management of logistics, food, grass, and money, Miao's power has become stronger, he is busy with more and more things, and has more and more people in charge, and his temper has naturally become stronger and stronger. .

Therefore, when she spoke, even Xu Zhenying did not dare to refute.

It was rare for Mo Jinchun to see people in the government affairs team so frustrated, but he felt envious in his heart.

He also had to work hard to get into the inner circle before the city lord's mother could scold him like this.

"There are enough things in the logistics department and it's messy, and you guys are still here to cause trouble! Go back and have a rest!"

Xu Yinxi's mouth was sweet, and she immediately coaxed Mrs. Miao with a smile: "Fourth Aunt, you are working hard, we just want to help. Hurry, you men, those who are strong, can write and do math, go and help Fourth Aunt, we Some girls are having a conversation!"

Fang Xun glared at Xu Yinxi.

Xu Huijia also glared at Xu Yinxi.

Okay, you know that everyone is curious about where the city lord gets the food, but you send us away with just one sentence, because you want to enjoy first-hand information.

This is too unkind to do.

Xu Yinxi quickly winked and signaled that the information would be shared together. The expressions of several boys improved, and then they went to help Miao with their work with smiles.

Several girls immediately surrounded Xu Zhenying.

Xu Zhenying looked at the girls who were smiling eagerly in front of her. She suddenly felt that the noodles in her hands were no longer fragrant. She simply took two quick bites. Qian Zhenniang immediately took the bowl away and said, "City Lord, when I left before , you refuse to tell me no matter how I ask you. Now that the grain and grass are back, please tell us how you got so much grain and grass?"

Xu Zhenying sighed, "Think about it, where can we find food in the southwest?"

Everyone thought hard, and Qian Zhenniang said: "Only in the stronghold or among the imperial army."

Several people were stunned. Xu Zhenying immediately made a gesture of silence, and then lowered his voice and said: "This is the food sent by the imperial court to the front line of Qianzhou Prefecture. It was intercepted by us when it passed through the waterway of Jinzhou Prefecture."

The expressions of the three of them changed slightly. Food for the imperial court?

The shock lasted for a few seconds. Yes, they were all rebels. Sooner or later they would have to fight the imperial court. Now they were just stealing food and grass. What was there to be afraid of?

But what surprised everyone was that Xu Zhenying was now so well-informed.

"Where did the city lord get the news?"

"Do you remember Hu Wei, the dog-headed military advisor next to Li Datou? He told me."

Everyone still had some impression of him, but it wasn't a good impression.

Xu Yinxi said: "I remember him, does the city mayor want to use him?"

"It's the right time to use people, why not use them?"

"But that person..."

"I know that he is too cunning, too wild-minded, and arrogant. You are afraid that I will not be able to control him." Xu Zhenying smiled, "But don't be afraid, such a person is a double-edged sword. It all depends on the ability of the person using it." .”
