The Prime Minister Seduced Me to Give Birth

Gu Yunjiao couldn't help but ask, "Isn't there not many banned troops in the capital?"

As far as she knows, although the Great Chu Imperial Army claims to be hundreds of thousands, these hundreds of thousands are distributed all over the country.

The forbidden army in the capital is known as the Palace Front Army. It is regarded as the elite army of the Great Chu, but it is only 80,000 to 90,000 people. Now it is divided into half, and it is only 40,000 people to defend the city?

Mrs. Wu nodded, "There are only about 40,000 troops in the front of the palace. However, the capital is firmly built, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. 40,000 people are enough to defend the city."

Gu Yunjiao whispered, "Mother, should we do something to prepare?"

In a war, if nothing else, we must first ensure survival, and food and other things are indispensable.

Mrs. Wu also thought of something with Gu Yunjiao, "No need, there is enough food in the government's grain depot for a year or two."

"There is no shortage of food in the capital, it is a siege—"

She stopped talking, she felt that it was a bit unlucky to say this.

"In short, let's take a look. Don't rush to buy food. Our family has enough food to eat, and we can't eat more if we buy it. Why make those people unable to buy it."

Gu Yunjiao nodded.

After leaving the main courtyard, she thought about it, she still had to make some preparations, not afraid of ten thousand just in case.

All her money is in the medicine storehouse, she just needs to buy some food and put it in.

No matter how much food there is in the government, it would be better to keep it in her medicine store for insurance.

After thinking about it, she decided to get some more salt-fried beef and fried small fish that Jiang Youzhi made last time, and put them in the medicine store after they were cooked, and they would not spoil for a long time.

It's just that there are many people in the Guogong's mansion, so it's not easy to deal with.

The next day, Gu Yunjiao went to Renxintang again.

First sent the servant who was a handyman at home to buy some rice grain and flour, and let him put it in the Gu family's house.

Then she sent Mrs. Tian to buy beef and small fish.

Mrs. Tian came back and said, "I don't have any beef today, I just bought some small fish."

Gu Yunjiao didn't say anything, waited for Mrs. Tian to deal with the little fish, and carried it to Gu's house.

This place almost became Gu Yunjiao's warehouse. Usually only Uncle Dumb was there. Gu Yunjiao sent the girls far away, salted a basket of small fish, and fried them in a frying pan.

Tried it myself, and it tasted pretty good.

She got a jar and put the little fish in the space, came out and gave Uncle Ya a few pieces of silver, held the little fish and gestured with Uncle Du for a long time, and motioned him to buy some small fish every day to deal with it and wait for her to get it.

Uncle dumb nodded, indicating that he understood.

The next day, Gu Yunjiao then asked Mrs. Tian to buy beef and pork.

After buying it, Gu Yunjiao took it to Gu's house to make pork jerky and salt-fried beef.

After several days, Gu Yunjiao worked tirelessly every day, and there were many jars with jerky and small fish in the medicine storehouse.

This evening, Gu Yunjiao went home, and it was time to accompany the father-in-law and Mrs. Wu for dinner today, but the father-in-law was mostly absent. These days, he always leaves early and returns late, and Gu Yunjiao hasn't seen him for half a month.

When she arrived at the main courtyard, she saw Mrs. Wu frowning and biting her lower lip.

Gu Yunjiao hurriedly said, "Mother, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Wu saw Gu Yunjiao, took her hand, and said solemnly: "The news came this morning that the Marquis of Wu'an died for the country, and the entire army in front of the Shiwan Palace was destroyed."

Gu Yunjiao was shocked, "This—"

Lin Shuo was still in Xiangcheng at this time, so he probably didn't know the news of his father's death.

She sat down and looked at Madam Wu, "Then the army of Jin State—"

Mrs. Wu's face was very ugly, "It is estimated that it will take a few days to arrive in the capital!"
