Part-time female officer of the rebirth spiritualist

Chapter 516
"What?" Lingzun Xiaoyao paused in his footsteps and looked over in astonishment.

Zhao Yun's face was serious, and she repeated: "Jianghai has fallen. The enemy launched a surprise attack after I transferred troops." The strength of Jianghai Province is about the same as that of Annan Province.And she transferred more than half of the troops guarding Jianghai Mansion, so how could they resist the enemy's attack?
Judging from the situation checked by Xiaoyao Lingzun now, the Heilin Army's initial target should be Jiang Hai.Attacking Fucheng is just to contain their troops and divert their attention.Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for the enemy to avoid the sentinels along the way and sneak into the river and sea!But what's special about Jiang Hai?

Lingzun Xiaoyao also frowned, and shook his head, "I don't know what kind of tricks these Li people are playing! Forget it, let's talk in the house."

Zhao Yun nodded and followed into the house.Shi Zhu walked behind Xiaoyao, she also pursed her lips with a serious look on her face.

The butler saw the three of them from a distance, came up to say hello, and said that lunch is already served, should it be served immediately.

Lingzun Xiaoyao asked the people who had gone out if they had returned home, and after hearing from the housekeeper that they had all returned, he asked him to put lunch in the side hall.He brought Shi Zhu and Zhao Yun into the house, and a waiter brought clean water, and the three of them washed their hands before sitting on a chair beside them, drinking tea, and waiting for everyone.

Mo Xuan's yard is the closest, so he came the fastest.When I entered the room, I saw that the faces of the three people were different, and they looked at them strangely, but didn't ask any more questions.After cleaning his hands, he sat next to Zhao Yun.

Not long after, An Fenglu brought Ah Cheng into the house, and was a little surprised when he saw Zhao Yun, "Shouldn't you be in the yamen right now?"

"What can I do in the yamen?" Zhao Yun raised her eyebrows and shook her head.The emperor asked her to be an imperial envoy to inspect on behalf of the sky.But she is a child, what does she know?The emperor sent her probably for other purposes.She can't figure this out for a while, but she won't be foolish enough to get involved in the affairs of the local yamen.Just going through the motions is enough.Touching something on her waist, Zhao Yun lowered her eyes.Jiang Hai fell, and I don't know if His Majesty the Emperor of the capital will regret it or be happy when he finds out.

"Cough, I thought you were going to stay for a long time. If I had known, I would have been waiting for you to come back with me outside the yamen." Not seeing Zhao Yun's small movements, An Fenglu rubbed his nose, then smiled and said: "I am on the street. I bought some gadgets, and I'll send them to you later."

"There are still people doing business on the street these days?" Zhao Yun smiled, somewhat in disbelief.The situation is unclear now, the enemy may call at any time, and the atmosphere in the city is very tense.She looked at the shops along the street, all with closed doors.Where did An Fenglu go shopping?
An Fenglu waved his hand, "The rice store is still open. Many people don't have much food in their homes, and they are rushing to buy it. But the price of rice seems to have risen a lot. There is a small peddler who doesn't have enough money. I saw him Poor, so I gave him a piece of silver. He insisted on giving me something, but I thought it was pretty delicate, so I took it all."

"That's it." Zhao Yun glanced at him and nodded thoughtfully.

Shizhu next to her said a little angrily, "The price of rice is more than ten yuan more expensive than usual, and those grain merchants are taking advantage of the fire. If you want me to say, the governor should have someone treat them well. The soldiers are ready to shed blood at any time." On the battlefield, they are busy exploiting the people! It's abominable!"

"It's understandable for a businessman to seek profit." An Fenglu shook his head, noncommittal to his words.

Xiaoyao Lingzun took a look at Shizhu, and said, "The only rice shops that are still open now. The price increase is inevitable. After all, except for the big merchants who will have some food in stock, many rice shops have to transfer grain from other places. You can’t go to the south or east, you can only go to the west and north. This journey is farther than before. The grain accumulated by the government is to supply the entire army, and it is impossible to take care of the people. At this time, grain merchants are very important.”
