    ?

    It's still a place where flowers bloom, and the capital is full of fireworks.

    The phoenix bird on the branch knows how cold the spring water is.

    Qin Qian is still "playing chess". He visited the most famous "Go Masters" in Jinxi City. They have fought desperately on the chessboard for more than 50 years.  Yu Yi has his own understanding of Go, surrounded by a thousand years old, it can be said to be rich in experience.

    However, everyone said that even after playing chess under the old locust tree at the entrance of the city for more than 50 years, they still couldn't solve such a coup.

    When I was worrying that the big Jinxi City didn't even have a decent chess hall, I suddenly heard someone report: "General, the grain and grass supervisor has returned."

    Qin Qian nodded: "Come back and let him have a good rest."

    The messenger did not leave, hesitating a little.

    Qin Qian's eyelids twitched: "Has the food been cut?"

    "Not really. Well, General, you should go and see for yourself."

    At any time, cooking is the top priority. Qin Qian didn't dare to slack off on food and grass. He immediately threw away the blueprint and rushed to the gate of the city. He asked as he walked, "What's the matter? You kid, finish your sentence."

    It is only two feet away from the city gate to the old locust tree. Before the voice fell, I saw a long queue of grain carts.

    "This number doesn't look bad." Qin Qian blamed.

    "General, look." The leader of the escort pulled out a stick from his bag, and what came out was not rice at all, but a pile of things with green hairs.

    Qin Qian's eyelids twitched again: "What kind of new variety is this? Just this bag? What about the others?"

    The transportation supervisor stood up: "General, don't look at it, the last general inspected it when he took over, and 100,000 shi of grain, 90% of it is like this."

    This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, and Qin Qian jumped into a rage: "Are you a food and grass supervisor or a garbage supervisor? What are you doing here? Are you free of money for such a long journey?"

    "General, it's not that the general has neglected his duties. The general has already reported this situation to the leaders of the household department. The reply he got is that the court has not fought wars for many years. It is good to have food and grass. It is normal to have mildew in this summer, and there is no treasury.  The rest of the food was given to us."

    At the same time, Princess Ning looked at the grains of rice that were as crystal clear as pearls, frowned, and overturned it with one hand. The pug on the ground looked at it and didn't respond.

    "Is there still no news from Brother Pei? Are there no news from the two sisters?"

    The aunt shook her head and persuaded: "Princess, you have to take care of your health and eat well."

    "Dogs won't eat this stuff, so I don't want it."

    The pug whined and turned away.

    "Auntie, look, brother Pei doesn't like me, this bastard doesn't like me! Then why keep him! Throw him into the river for me!"

    Qin Qian confronted the transportation supervisor for a long time under the scorching sun. Finally, he relaxed his brows and said soothingly, "Does anyone else know about this?"

    "When you come back, the defenders of the city will see it, and the people passing by will see it, and then you will be there."

    Qin Qian instructed: "The morale of the army is important, don't spread the word, I will find a way to deal with food and grass."

    The army can take care of it, but the common people can¡¯t close their mouths. Within two days, Xu Yin heard the aunt who cleaned the toilet say: ¡°Oh, I heard that the opposite court has cut off food for the army, and many people starved to death.  The general's face turned green from hunger."

    Xu Yin felt that he could no longer spend time with the Second Prince.

    Hearing this tone, Pei Zhan will become a demon, and the general will starve to death. Maybe Zhang Yuanjiang will really be the emperor.

    "Ninny, are you not hungry?" The second prince asked warmly and arrived as soon as he said it.

    "Father, I'm almost swollen from being fed by you, I want to go out to get some air." Xu Yin shook his head quickly.

    The Second Prince clapped his hands together and smiled happily: "You want to go out? Oh, it just so happens that Dad will take you to visit."

    "Where are you going?"

    "There is Mengcang Mountain next to Cangcheng, and Sikong's family is on the mountain. Last time father had a meeting with Prince Sheng of Sikong's family, we agreed to marry our two families"

    Xu Yin thought: "Marriage? Daddy, do you want to marry the thirtieth wife?"

    The Second Prince was taken aback, a little shy: "It's not impossible, your father hasn't married a new one for a year, and ask Prince Sheng later."

    Then he said sternly: "This marriage, what do our two families mean? Since King Xu can't grab it, there must be someone to support our family, right?"

    "It makes sense." Xu Yin wholeheartedly agreed with this idea.

    The second prince nodded and smiled: "Oh, she really deserves to be my good daughter. The reputation and strength of Prince Sheng are not bad.?We must show sincerity, don¡¯t we?  You have to pick the most beautiful daughter.  "

    "That's right." Xu Yin nodded in agreement.

    "It's a coincidence, isn't it? You see, the last time General Sikong came to me, he picked it once."

    Xu Yin suddenly realized: "Oh, last time you were picking the most beautiful daughter?"

    "Isn't it!" The Second Prince clapped his hands together.

    "Oh oh oh." Xu Yin showed a gossip in his eyes, "Who did you pick? Show me the long eyes, old man."

    The Second Prince looked at her kindly: "Silly girl, isn't it you?"

    "!!!?!" Xu Yin was startled, "Why me? I'm not at all"

    Thinking of Pei Zhan's instructions, Xu Yin swallowed the second half of the sentence, and asked again after a long time, "Then who do you want me to marry?"

    "Of course it's his second son, Sikong Xian." (Remember this site's website: www.hlnovel.com
