Rebirth of the Demon Queen

Chapter 223 Yunyong

The rebels were official troops trained by the court. Even if they encountered regular official troops, they still had the power to fight.

Moreover, Ningping Town is one of the important towns in the border area. The garrison stations are all elite soldiers. These people have taken over the bandits with their baggage, and their impact on Dayan is immeasurable.

"After Tan Yuesong surrendered to Zhao Quangui, he was enfeoffed general and captured five counties in a few days. Yesterday, the Governor's Office of the Five Army received an emergency report. Zhao Quangui sent 50,000 bandit troops, using Tan Yuesong as the vanguard, and divided the troops into three groups to attack Qinjing."

Xie Xi's face no longer had the laughter of the past, and he said with a heavy face: "The severe drought in Guanzhong last year has not yet recovered this year. Since the previous year, military rations have been difficult to maintain. This mutiny was caused by Tan Yuesong's troops robbing grain."

Although it was an extremely secret military newspaper, Xie Xi obviously collected all the information and told Lin Zisu about the whole story of the chaos in Guanzhong.

Guanzhong has a rich land and a dangerous terrain. It has been the granary of the court in all dynasties.

Since the founding of the Dayan country, Guanzhong and Jiangnan have undertaken half of the country's grain and are also the two provinces with the largest population in Dayan.

After years of drought, the food in Guanzhong is unsustainable and is already overwhelmed and is still waiting for the imperial court to allocate grain.

However, when the Northern Di invaded, all the food and grass allocated to Guanzhong by the imperial court was intercepted in Luyuan.

Ningping Town waited for four months and never saw any trace. In the anger of the crowd, Tan Yuesong, deputy general of Ningping Town, led a group of soldiers to plunder the two wealthy families in Ningping Town.

Seeing that she was unhappy, Xie Xi changed the topic and said, "Su Su, I have sent someone to check these two days. That second brother is such a treasure."

The throat of the northwest of the Qin Capital is Dayan. Once the bandits take Qin Capital down, the entire Guanzhong will fall into the hands of the rebels.

After receiving the news, the general of Ningping Town sent troops to encircle and suppress it.

A buzz rang out of the window, and it was already four o'clock.

Lin Zisu frowned tightly and sighed: "No matter how much I say here, I'm just worried."

Unexpectedly, the Guanzhong Rebellion was much earlier than in the previous life and even more difficult.

She blushed and she whispered: "It's probably my second aunt's private money. I heard that my second aunt's family has some money, so I'm afraid I've brought a lot of money to Beijing this time."

Lin Zisu remembered the emperor he met in the afternoon. It seemed that it was because of this that the emperor strengthened his mind to establish a crown prince.

She originally wanted to ask why Qin Lu was so close to Lin Fangfeng, but she lost interest at this time.

After obtaining food and supplies, Zhao Quangui became more winged and had the idea of ​​governing Qin Jing in Guanzhong.

He stretched his neck, looked at Lin Zisu's face, and asked, "Susu, what's wrong with you?"

"The great affairs of the imperial court are all concerned about."

The two major families had close ties with the general of Ningping Town, and their local forces were intricate.

"Yes, I heard that it is the courtesan Luhua of Tianxianglou, and there are many romantic talents in the capital who can't make an appointment. I have been to Tianxianglou so many times and have never seen this Luhua."

Lin Zisu's heart became heavier and he thought that he had saved the emperor and the chaos in his previous life would no longer exist, and Dayan would definitely not repeat the cycle of reincarnation in his previous life.

When Lin Zisu heard this, she felt anger inexplicably. She didn't know whether it was because of Lin Fangfeng or something else.

Xie Xi shook his head and said, "Fighting cocks, eating, drinking, gamblers, this is not something you can afford to spend in just a few taels of silver. Your second aunt is a rooster who is irretrievable, how could she give him money to have fun?"

Xie Xi let out a sigh and said, "Su Su, you don't have to worry too much. On the northern border, Beidi has retreated. The Marquis of Chang'an will be able to return to Beijing soon. Without the involvement of Beidi, the group of mobs in Guanzhong will not be able to become a climate."

Lin Zisu thought about it, and she would tell her mother tomorrow and pay attention to the warehouse at home. Xie Xi said again: "But this time I went to Tianxianglou, it was the guest that Qin Lu invited, so I didn't spend his money."

Lin Zisu heard a hint of unusualness and asked, "I remember that Qin Lu is the son of Shaoqing's family in Dali Temple. What kind of virtue is my second brother? Can Qin Lu treat him?"

Tan Yuesong did not stop and plundered several neighboring counties, and then he turned to Zhao Quangui in a swagger.

The dark clouds outside the window suddenly rose, blocking the starlight in the sky. The ink-like night passed through the window and quietly penetrated into the house.

Xie Xixi smiled and said, "Your second brother is very lucky. You can get a chance to have a kiss so easily. How about we meet this girl Luhua next day?"

However, there seems to be some disagreement. Judging from the emperor's complexion, he does not seem to take this matter seriously. Otherwise, how could he feel or laugh?

Speaking of Lianglin Fangfeng, Xie Xi regained a smirk on his face and continued, "I heard that he is a regular visitor to the gambling stalls in the south of the city, and people often see him appearing in the cockfighting grounds in the north of the city. Tsk tsk, cockfighting and gambling are all bottomless pits. I have never heard of our family having a wealth of money. Where do you think his money comes from?"

However, the morale of the army was dispersed. Under the instigation of Tan Yuesong, the officials who went to encircle and suppress the troops also turned against each other. The general of Ningping Town died in the chaos.

Seeing Lin Zisu getting interested, Xie Xi turned his body slightly, changed into a more comfortable position, and smiled and said, "It's only been a few months since he arrived in Beijing? Unexpectedly, everyone in the south and north of the city knew the name of the second son of the Lin family."

Xie Xi didn't know how he offended Lin Zisu. The two of them were talking about the comings and goings, but suddenly they were like a different person.

Lin Zisu heard Xie Xi mention Lin Fangfeng and remembered that he had promised to go back to investigate. He originally thought he was comforting himself, but he didn't expect that the result would come out so soon.

"I got news from my father that the court had appointed a new general of Guanning Town to dispatch 20,000 troops from the river to aid Qinjing."

Lin Zisu snorted and said, "Okay, I understand. Fourth brother, please go back. I will ask my father a good question tomorrow."

Lin Zisu was stunned at first, and then realized what "our family" meant by Xie Xi.

The indoor candlelight was like beans. Under the dim light, half of Lin Zisu's face was also hidden in the shadow of the tent. Xie Xi didn't see it very clearly, and always felt a trace of furiousness on Lin Zisu's face.

Lin Zisu glanced at Xie Xi and said lightly: "It's nothing, I'm just a little tired."

Xie Xi scratched his head, not feeling anything wrong. He thought about it and felt that it was getting late, so he stood up and said goodbye to Lin Zisu.

Lin Zisu was inexplicably annoyed, and listened to Xie Xi leaving silently. Then she lay down again, covered her head with brocade, and let out an inaudible low roar.
