Sister Ye didn't ask any more questions. Although she understood what Xu Que was trying to do, she also understood that it was time to eradicate the problem!
Xu Que stood up and returned to the small courtyard with a smile. Now there are only a few servants left in the Xu Mansion. Xu's father, Xu mother, Xu Fan and Liu Rushi have moved to the new city, and the Xu Mansion there is even more grand.
"Husband, when can we go there?" Hu Ling'er asked with a smile.
"I still have things to deal with, you can move over first." Xu Que responded casually, and then entered the study.
"What is he going to do again?" Murong Yao asked curiously.
"I don't know. Anyway, he will definitely be very busy these days." Huang Qianying responded without raising her head.
"What are you making? Why haven't you seen it before?" Cao Mutong asked.
"The little man asked me to do this, saying it would make it easier to take a shower in the future." Huang Qianying explained casually.

Yangcheng
Just as Uqaidah was ordering his troops and preparing to lead the army out of the city, a dove suddenly hovered above his head.
Uqaida waved his right hand, and the dove instantly turned into an envelope.
The content of the letter was very simple, but after reading it, Uqaida was very shocked because this piece of information was very important.
"Commander, are we still going forward?" Cang Qi approached and asked in a low voice.
"Let the soldiers rest for another day!" Uqaida clutched the letter tightly, turned around and returned to the camp.
Cang Qi didn't understand, but he didn't intend to ask. He simply shouted to the army: "Disband!"
The newly assembled army cheered instantly. They had not had fun these past few days and wished they could torture the people of Dayan even more...
"Commander, whose letter is this?" Tian Heng asked respectfully.
"It's our Crown Prince!" Wu Guaida said somewhat dullly: "He said that there are a lot of traps at the junction of Nanshan and Xishan. If we send more troops, it will only lead to death. Moreover, Ma Guanxing and the others have also joined Xu Maofeng. If we continue If we attack rashly, we will most likely suffer heavy losses."
"Then what should we do?" Tian Heng asked puzzledly.
"Wait, wait for His Highness to come over!" Ugeda sat on the chair with his head raised.
Tian Heng looked at Pang Lu, both of them shook their heads helplessly, and then left the camp.
As night fell, three figures quietly entered Yangcheng County.
"Who is it?" A Beimang soldier stared at the visitor with a spear in his hand.
Kang Xingye took out the token with a smile, and then said to Mr. Gu next to him: "This soldier is not bad, he is very alert."
Gu Yu did not speak, but nodded slightly in agreement.
When the Beimang soldier saw the token, he immediately knelt down and was about to shout out.
Gu Yu pressed a finger on the top of his head: "I hope you will forget about the prince's affairs!"
"Yes, I understand." The Beimang soldier responded softly.
As soon as Kang Xingye and the others pushed open the door of the camp, Wu Guida knelt on the ground and said, "I have seen your highness in this humble position."
"Get up, you are very good." Kang Xingye said with a smile: "Although it is still a few days behind expectations, being able to win Yangcheng shows that General Wu has tried his best."
"I am ashamed of my humble position, and I hope your Highness will punish you." Ugueda said, cupping his fists.
At this moment, Ugeda was very ashamed, because he was only one step away from arriving in Zheyang County as promised.
But in Kang Xingye's eyes, Wu Guida is indeed very good. If he hadn't learned that Xu Que was planning behind the scenes, he might not have been able to capture Yangcheng if he had been given command...
"What's wrong with General Wu Shuai? I'm here to reward you, and I'm here with an imperial edict!"
"Your Highness, please don't joke with me. I promise you..."
"Hey!" Kang Xingye interrupted Wu Guaida's words with a smile, and then directly took out the imperial edict: "This is a reward from your father, and it also proves your bravery, so I will not punish you!"
Uqaida knelt down and kowtowed three times, and then carefully received the imperial edict.
When he saw the above content, this iron-blooded man finally shed tears.
"Wuguida thanks the emperor for his kindness, and the general is willing to die for Beimang!"
"Mr. Wu Guo, you are only one step away from being crowned king. I hope you can promise me to take over Zheyang County!" Kang Xingye said calmly.
"Even if I am shattered to pieces, I will repay His Highness's kindness." Wuguida kowtowed: "But, I don't know how we can escape Xu Maofeng's trap?"
"I came here so late just to tell you this!" Kang Xingye smiled and then whispered into Ugeda's ear.
When Wu Guaida heard Kang Xingye's method, his eyes twitched at first, so he clenched his fists and nodded repeatedly!
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, the general will continue to march towards Zheyang County tomorrow!" Ugeda kowtowed again.
"Very good, I will be waiting for you thirty miles north of Zheyang County. I will reward you with a jar of fine wine when the time comes!" Kang Xingye said with satisfaction.
After Uqaida sent away Kang Xingye and the others, he opened the imperial edict again. The two words "Guo Gong" on it made him very excited, because he finally did it!
Outside Yangcheng, Kang Xingye looked at the sky and the moon, with a sly smile on his lips.
"Your Highness, can this plan really make Xu Maofeng and the others retreat?" Gu Jingchen asked.
"Of course." Kang Xingye said confidently: "This is a strategy given by the Holy Family's soldiers. If they were not afraid of other Holy Family members, the soldiers would have taken action long ago!"
Gu Jingchen was shocked and speechless when he heard that it was the Art of War lineage of the Holy Family. He knew how strong the Art of War lineage was. To put it bluntly, one of the soldiers they led could equal a hundred without any problem!
"Your Highness, do you really plan to go to Xincheng, Zheyang County for an appointment?" Gu Yu asked.
"What's wrong? Are you afraid that boy will control me?" Kang Xingye asked.
"That's not scary. It's just that in the past few days, there have been people investigating us." Gu Yu said, "I'm worried that those people will come to hide us."
"They are all secretly fragrant people, so there is no need to worry." Kang Xingye replied nonchalantly.
He really didn't look down on Anxiang. If it weren't for Xu Que's help, this organization probably wouldn't have appeared in the world...
…
Xincheng, Zheyang County
The Xu Mansion's residence is located in Dongcheng District, and next to it is the residence built for Mo Dongsheng. As for the other large residences, Xu Que has no intention of selling them. After all, this area will be given away to others for use in the future.
Xu's father and Xu's mother were very curious about this construction method, because it was completely different from the buildings they had seen before...
In Xu Que's small courtyard, the three women sat under the pavilion and listened to Xu Que's chat. At first they were not curious, but when the Yellow River Drunken recipe was mentioned, the three women pricked up their ears.
"Since you have a pair of Yuexian, why are you unwilling to give me the formula of Yellow River Drunk?" Cao Mutong asked lightly.
"Little wife, if you have a chicken that lays golden eggs, will you give away another chicken that can lay silver eggs?" Xu Que asked calmly.
"No." Cao Mutong replied matter-of-factly.
"That's right." Xu Que looked up at the moonlight and said, "All things are greedy. Since it belongs to me, why should I give it away? And I haven't seen the sincerity of your Qiushui Dao Sect so far. Come on, do you think I’ll take it out for free?”
"What do you want?" Cao Mutong looked at Xu Que steadily.
Xu Que turned his head and looked into Cao Mutong's eyes: "A lot, including everything you own!"
"Then don't think about it, the sect leader will definitely not agree."
Xu Que laughed, very happily. After laughing for a few times, he said in cold words: "Look, you understand this truth, why do you need to ask me again?"
"Then you are not going to hand over the formula?" Cao Mutong asked unwillingly.
"Giving this formula to your Qiushui Dao Sect, it will kill many people. I don't want to be a butcher. If they really want this formula, you go back and bring a message to the sect leader, saying that the refugees on the south bank are waiting for his relief!"
Something strange flashed in Cao Mutong's eyes. She didn't expect that Xu Que's first suggestion would be the refugees from the South Bank...
"Wouldn't it be solved by giving them a sum of money?" Cao Mutong said in a doubtful tone.
"If money can really solve the problem of disaster victims in the world, do you think there will be more disaster victims every year?" Xu Que said looking into the distance.
His eyes looked at those buildings again, those relocation houses belonging to the refugees, which were the residences of more than 100,000 refugees!
