Liu Rumei continued, "In addition, please tell His Highness the Crown Prince that Zhu Meng is too familiar with our country, Dacang. If we don't get rid of him, it will definitely be a disaster in the future."
Zhou Quan thanked him again and turned to leave. Liu Rumei stopped him again, "If you go to Xiangguo Temple, please say hello to my father for me."
Zhou Quan's expression gradually became more solemn, he nodded slightly, turned around and left, wiping a handful of tears when he left.
After watching Zhou Quan leave, Liu Rumei's expression was also very solemn. After a long time, she moved slightly and shook her head gently.
Upon seeing this, Chen Xiaobei stepped forward and comforted her softly, "Okay, Rumei, you have done your best, go back and rest first."
Liu Rumei shook her head, "My heart is very confused. Although I hate the emperor's unfair treatment of my Liu family, I also feel sorry for our people of Dacang Kingdom. If the Great Earth Kingdom really besieges Wannian City, I’m afraid it will be too late if we try to save him.”
Hearing this, a word came to Chen Xiaobei's mind, that is, repaying evil with kindness.
Yes, Liu Rumei's current performance is completely worthy of these four words.
"Rumei, your intention has been reached. What happens next is not something we can decide."
Chen Xiaobei became more and more comforting, but Liu Rumei seemed indifferent and just nodded, "Brother Xiaobei, I know what you are thinking. I want to be quiet for a while."
Well, Chen Xiaobei said nothing more and could only watch Liu Rumei leave.
What Liu Rumei didn't expect was that as soon as she walked out of the yard, Xiaoqing hurried over.
As soon as she saw Liu Rumei, Xiao Qing said nervously, "Miss, there is news from the young master of Wannian City."
When Liu Rumei heard this, her expression tightened. She quickly stepped forward and took the letter. After reading it, her expression became more and more solemn, and she simply sat on the side of the road and refused to leave.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei hurriedly caught up, took the letter from Xiaoqing's hand, and glanced at it briefly. In this letter, he re-introduced the current situation, and finally said with some expectation, " My little sister, as a minister, you should share your worries for the king."
"We are facing a formidable enemy, so we can put aside our personal prejudices and save the people from danger."
No wonder Liu Rumei was silent. It turned out that this was a request from her brother.
In today's society, there is still a saying that elder brother is like father. His eldest brother came forward to say this, so this is the reason why Liu Rumei feels uncomfortable.
But think about it, Liu Rumei has already drawn the Four Spirits Bagua Formation to Zhou Quan, and Zhou Quan will definitely rush to the front line all night long. Even if Liu Rumei rushes over, he may only be able to help set up the formation.
Chen Xiaobei tried to explain his attitude again, and Liu Rumei nodded slightly after listening.
"Yes, Brother Xiaobei, even if I dare to move forward, I'm afraid I won't be of much help!"
"But if I don't go there, I'll feel very uneasy."
Chen Xiaobei came up and sat down next to Liu Rumei, patted her shoulder gently, "Okay, we have done our best now. Let's wait for two days and see what progress is ahead."
Just then, a commotion was heard at the entrance of the village, and then a loud voice shouted.
"Xiaowen is back, Captain Xiaowen is back."
It turned out that Chen Xiaoyun brought people back to Jizhou to deliver cabbage.
Chen Xiaobei was also very excited and hurriedly led people to the entrance of the village.
When I arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw a dozen villagers surrounding Chen Xiaowen and others, asking questions and chatting non-stop.
Chen Xiaowen looked up and saw Chen Xiaobei coming, and quickly separated from everyone to greet him.
"Brother Xiaobei, we are back."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "It's good to be back. It's good to be back. You haven't eaten yet. I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook quickly."
Chen Xiaobei turned around to leave, but Chen Xiaowen grabbed him with a look of embarrassment on his face.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei knew that Chen Xiaowen had something to hide. He walked straight forward and dragged Chen Xiaowen away from the crowd. After walking far away, he asked, "Xiaowen, what's going on?"
Chen Xiaowen sighed, "Brother Xiaobei, everything was going well. I was about to leave after delivering it to Jizhou, but the person in charge of acceptance at the military camp suddenly told me not to send it again in the future. They wanted the army to leave."
After speaking, he took out two ingots of silver from his sleeves and said, "That's all."
"We still have a lot of them in the land, but I'm afraid we won't be able to sell them on this road."
Seeing Chen Xiaowen's sad face, Chen Xiaobei also felt nervous, and even the people guarding the warehouse left. This showed that Wannian City was really not optimistic.
"Xiaowen, what did you hear in Jizhou City when you came back?"
"Oh, I was just about to tell you about this. We heard from the innkeeper that the Great Earth Kingdom was invading in a big way, and a war started in Wannian City. Jizhou's army also had to move to Wannian City."
It turns out that this is the case. This shows that the situation is really not optimistic. People from Jizhou are all going to Wannian City to provide support.
"Brother Xiaobei, do you think the Great Earth Kingdom will really attack our Qingniu County?" Chen Xiaowen seemed to be frightened.
Chen Xiaobei smiled and shook his head.
"Don't worry, it's okay. Let's go and eat."
At this time, when some villagers saw Chen Xiaowen, they shouted from afar, "Xiaowen, you are so promising. Even the prince knows that you are going to marry a wife, and he even sent you a congratulatory gift."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaowen was stunned and looked at Chen Xiaobei in surprise.
Chen Xiaobei nodded slightly, "Yes, you just happened to be out, and it was a congratulatory gift sent by County Magistrate Hu himself. There are two big boxes full."
Chen Xiaowen waved his fist excitedly. Suddenly he ran home and Chen Xiaobei couldn't help but laugh. He was still a child after all.
The return of Chen Xiaowen and others still brought some joy to Hetou Village.
Chen Xiaobei didn't feel much joy in his heart. He originally thought that if he gave it to the military, his cabbage would be able to digest it, but now it seems that his hope has been lost. There are still tens of thousands of cabbage waiting to be sold.
I still have to find a way to open source. Just going to Qingniu County is not enough. The next step is to try Qingzhou and Shouzhou.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei turned to discuss with Liu Rumei. After all, she was more familiar with the surrounding situation.
After seeing Liu Rumei, Chen Xiaobei sighed, "Rumei, it seems that the situation is indeed not optimistic. Xiaowen said that the cabbage ordered by Tian Wenhao is not required because their army is about to leave."
Upon hearing this, Liu Rumei raised her eyebrows and said, "Then what do you want to do next? There are still a lot of cabbage in the field."
"Yes, there are still dozens of acres of cabbage. I want to send someone to the nearby Shouzhou and Qingzhou to have a look."
After hearing this, Liu Rumei's face showed a trace of relief.
"You don't need to send anyone for this. Two days ago, I asked Liu Ce and Liu Tie to investigate the market for charcoal. If I can send charcoal, I can just bring a piece of your cabbage."
