Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 630: Sun Quan’s navy is about to attack!

The tenth day of the first lunar month in the sixth year of Jian'an.

Civil and military officials, led by Tian Feng and Zhao Yun, began to leave Yecheng in large numbers and rushed to their respective posts.

Zhang Sui has not yet recovered from the aftermath of the three dynasties.

After marrying Zhao Yu, Zhang Sui went to find Mi Zhen and their child Zhang Feng.

Zhang Sui still did not bring Zhang Feng back.

Zhen Mi was also at Mi Zhen's house.

Although Zhang Sui and Zhen Mi were both in Yecheng, Zhang Sui met her only a few times in a year.

Every time they met, Zhen Mi would find a reason to leave.

After several attempts, Zhang Sui was too lazy to worry about it anymore.

At this moment, Mi Zhen was cooking for Zhang Sui and Zhang Feng, father and son, in the kitchen.

Mi Zhen had a maid who was sent there by Zhang Sui.

However, ever since Mi Zhen gave birth to Zhang Feng, Mi Zhen had to prepare all the meals for the mother and son as well as Zhen Mi herself.

Mi Zhen has always been very cautious, worried that the maid might do something wrong.

However, Mi Zhen and Zhang Sui were much more enthusiastic.

At this time, she was cutting vegetables while chattering about the difficulties she encountered as the mayor and Qiao Hao, the father of Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, in running businesses, setting up stations, and training homing pigeons.

Officials at various stations were corrupt and enforcement was poor.

Officials often report the cost of food needed to raise a pigeon at several or even dozens of times the price.

Mi Zhen cursed and said, "I've seen people being greedy for these things before."

"My two elder brothers were not interested in business when they were young. When our parents were alive, they trained me. I have seen too much of this kind of behavior."

"If the water is too clear, there will be no fish. I can understand that."

"However, some people simply have no bottom line, and are greedy for several times, or even dozens of times!"

Zhang Sui listened to Mi Zhen's chatter and said with a smile, "Didn't I deal with all the corruption that you and Old Qiao reported to me right away?"

"It's normal for people to be corrupt."

"Like those officials under my command, do you think they are really dedicated to this world?"

"Let's not talk about others, it's Sima Fang, he's the patriarch of the Sima family."

"What doesn't the Sima family have?"

"But didn't Sima Fang secretly take a large amount of grain to the Sima family during the harvest last year?"

"Moreover, they have also placed many of the Sima family's direct descendants there."

"But so what?"

"Those who deserve to be punished should be punished."

"Just don't take it into your own heart."

"If you make yourself unhappy all day long because of outsiders, you are only hurting your body."

"It's not necessary."

"You are angry, you are hurt, and these people are still living happily. It's not worth it."

Mi Zhen then stopped cutting vegetables, looked at Zhang Sui in surprise and said, "You are so open-minded at such a young age."

"I just can't get over it."

Zhang Sui smiled and moved closer, hugged Mi Zhen from behind, and pulled her panties down from under her skirt.

Mi Zhen blushed and said, "Stop making trouble."

"Mi'er is still here."

"Just in case she breaks in later."

"You guys are always nagging. If she sees this, she must be angry—"

Mi Zhen hadn't finished her words yet. As Zhang Sui exerted a little force, Mi Zhen bit her lip, turned around and glared at Zhang Sui helplessly.

Zhang Sui held her in his arms and kissed her snow-white neck.

After a while, Mi Zhen closed her eyes, raised her neck backwards, pressed her pretty face against Zhang Sui's face, and moaned in a suppressed voice.

On the 20th day of the first lunar month, Zhang Sui sent Yan Liang and Qian Zhao away.

It was also on this day that the bustle of Yecheng faded away.

Zhang Sui also began to get involved in government affairs.

In addition, he also led some officials to develop water conservancy projects.

Although the civilian settlement + work point system has great drawbacks.

Before traveling through time, Zhang Sui had heard the older generation talk about the big pot meal. However, so far, the disadvantages have not yet appeared.

Or maybe everyone had just fled to Hebei and had just experienced famine and war, so the vast majority of people were working hard to get full work points every day.

The few lazy people who do happen to be caught will be reported and punished.

On the fourth day of February, Zhang Sui brought officials back from digging the reservoir.

He did not go back directly, but went to the government office to handle government affairs for a while.

These days, he would only return to his residence after handling some government affairs.

Just when he was dealing with it seriously, a hurried figure rushed in.

It’s Chen Deng from Qilin Pavilion.

Chen Deng came directly to Zhang Sui and handed him a piece of cloth.

Zhang Sui took the strip of cloth and opened it, only to see a few rows of large, scribbled characters on it: "One hundred thousand naval forces from Jiangdong have gathered at Qu'a Port. Sun Quan's revenge war is coming fiercely. Liao Ding must fight to the death! If he dies in battle, please send his remains back to Yanmen. Thank you!"

Zhang Sui looked at the words on the cloth and rubbed his eyebrows.

One hundred thousand troops!

Sun Quan is determined to open Guangling!

Seeing Zhang Sui like this, Chen Deng whispered, "I have written an urgent letter and am ready to send it to Zhuge Liang in Lujiang."

"Sun Quan's army of 100,000 is approaching, and Guangling is not the only one in danger."

"This 100,000-strong army will definitely attract attention from all parties."

"If Lujiang wants to help defend Guangling, it is very likely that Zhou Yu's army in Chaisang will attack."

"Unless it is absolutely necessary, the Lujiang army must not move towards Guangling."

"If Guangling is lost and Lujiang is attacked, the consequences will be disastrous."

"We should also inform Huang Zu to pay attention to Xiakou."

"Now Jiangdong is the active one and we are the passive one."

"We don't know exactly which area they will raid."

"Be more careful."

"My Lord, you have to come in person to inform Huang Zu to pay attention to Xiakou."

"The situation in Jingzhou has been very turbulent recently, and problems could occur at any time."

"My Lord, you must have Huang Zu be on high alert and guard against Chaisang."

Zhang Sui nodded and said, "I'll write it right away."

Only then did Chen Deng respond and quickly retreat.

Zhang Sui picked up the cloth strip again and looked at it carefully.

Although there were only a few dozen words, Zhang Sui seemed to see Zhang Liao's hand trembling as he held the brush.

Zhang Sui sighed.

Before traveling through time, he saw Zhang Liao defeat Sun Quan's 100,000 troops with only 800 men, and all he saw was their high spirits.

However, looking at these scenes again now, Zhang Sui was deeply worried for Zhang Liao.

Now that I have traveled through time, everything has changed.

Zhang Sui looked at the words on the cloth and secretly prayed that Zhang Liao could overcome the difficulties.

Zhang Sui stood up, walked to the door of the room, looked up at the dark night sky, and clasped his hands together.

As a materialist in the 21st century, he does not believe in ghosts or gods.

But at this moment, he sincerely hoped that ghosts and gods would appear and help Zhang Liao this time.

Lujiang Wankou Port.

The entire port was filled with flags.

There were two people standing in a small boat on the river.

One of them was Zhuge Liang, the current governor of Lujiang County.

The other person is Gan Ning, the deputy commander of Lujiang County, who is now in charge of guarding the Wankou Port.

Gan Ning took the oars, rowed the boat, and patrolled along the shore.

Zhuge Liang held a feather fan in his hand and carefully inspected the coastal defenses.

From time to time, Zhuge Liang would frown and look towards Chaisang County on the opposite bank.

There, on the shore, soldiers could be seen running back and forth everywhere.
