★★★★★This book is first published on the Chinese website★★★★
———————————————————————————————
"What's the situation at Phoenix Pass now?"
"Yester afternoon, Chu Tiancheng, the prince sent by the emperor to the front has received the news that the grain has been burned. At present, 800 troops will face a crisis of food shortage in five days. It is estimated that the court will also receive news tomorrow morning.
800 stone grain is equivalent to three months of military food. The person who planned this time can be said to be accurate and clean. Choosing to start in Xinyi Town, even if the court has the ability to raise grain immediately, it is impossible to deliver the grain to the Phoenix Pass within five days, then the army of Yasukuni will be defeated without a war!
And generally, food will be transported away for their own use. And they actually chose to burn them all, which shows that they acted decisively and never gave the enemy a chance.
"Dark moon, continue to let bubbles pay close attention to the situation of the southern barbarians, and don't relax your vigilance in the sea." On the surface, it seems that Nanman should have done this matter, but she feels very uneasy when she thinks that the sea country has changed its emperor. There have been too many things recently, and she doesn't know if she is a little nervous.
Nangong Bingyu closed her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "Hurry up and whip, inform Sanniang and Qian Yu, who have gone back, and let them collect 30,000 stones of grain from the Nangong family's granary in the town within 500 miles of Phoenix Pass. The secret of this matter must be transported in batches and escorted by the best dark men. Within five days, it must be sent to Phoenix Guan Chu Tiancheng.
Just now, the unruly face appeared in her mind. She guessed that he must be furious, and she didn't have to think about it. Although he is a well-bred prince, he is actually a general. He can lose to his opponent on the battlefield or even die in battle, but he must not lose so much without going to the battlefield. This is the pride of soldiers and men.
I don't know why she doesn't want to see such Chu Tiancheng. Maybe he is so arrogant and arrogant. It should be his expression.
What's more, after all, Dajing is her country now, and she doesn't want the Southern Barbarians to win this battle like this.
She will not adjust the grain today, and the court will not let go of the Nangong family so simply. After all, it is impossible for the treasury to empty, so it is inevitable for the Nangong family to raise food again. It is better to take a step ahead now and solve Chu Tiancheng's urgent needs.
"Yes." After listening to Nangong Bingyu's instructions, the dark figure of the dark moon soon disappeared in front of her.
Nangong Bingyu returned to ** and stretched out. With the rustling dead leaves and the raging cold wind outside, she closed her eyes, and there will be a lot of things waiting for her tomorrow.
~~~~#####~~~
Last night's wind blew down full of dead leaves. Now, the garden is stained with a strong winter, and the bare trunk looks somewhat obscure, but this is just the dormant of its vitality, waiting for the spring greeting.
"Miss, Aunt Yupei is here." The drizzle gently called the Nangong Bingyu leaning against the window.
Come back from the winter outside the window, Nangong Bingyu said with a faint smile, "Please." It's only noon. It's time to come here as soon as you receive the news in the morning.
After a while, Yupei slowly came in under the lead of the drizzle. He turned out to be thin. In the past few days, the stabbing of Master Nangong has been reduced a lot.
Nangong Bingyu sighed and was moved by her father's heart. She quickly greeted her, held the jade pendant to sit down, and sighed, "Auntie, sit down quickly. You must be very tired these days, and your father's injury has not healed. If you have anything to do, just let me know how to go back drunk."
Yupei was so smooth that she shook her head and said, "I can't wait for this, and it's not safe to die drunk."
She now understands why someone wants to die. This burning of grain is very likely to defeat Dajing. At present, it is the most critical juncture. Whether it is the master or Yuer, they are in danger.
After making a cup of hot tea for Aunt Yupei and slowly pushing it in front of her, Nangong Bingyu said softly, "It has happened, and it's useless to be anxious. It's not safe for you to come out like this." She knows that those people who have intentions will kill her by any means in order to prevent Aunt Yupei from staying with her father.
"You already know it?"
Yupei looked at the softly quiet Bingyu in front of her in surprise. Does she know?! She only received an 800-mile urgent report this morning, and she actually knew it.
Nangong Bingyu nodded gently, and a warm smile gently raised, which conveyed the reassuring power to the hearts of everyone in the room. The calm and clear voice said slowly, "Don't worry about this. I have transferred 30,000 stones of grain to Fenghuang Pass. Within a month, the army will not run out of food. I think with the emperor's ability, it should not be a problem to raise military grain in March after a month."
30,000 stones? Are you sure it can really work in five days?"
Yupei's frown slowly loosened, but there is still doubts in his heart that 30,000 stone grain is not a small amount, which is enough for 80,000 troops to eat for a month. It's not easy to raise it, not to mention sending it to Phoenix Pass in such a short time.
"Don't worry."
Nangong Bingyu nodded firmly. She understood Aunt Yupei's worries. If there were Nangong's industry all over the country, there were indeed several granaries near Phoenix Pass, and Sanniang and Qian Yu had just gone back, otherwise she would not be able to mobilized so much food in five days.
Yupei nodded assuredly and said sincerely, "Yuer, you have really grown up."
She came here today and just wanted Bingyu to find a way to raise 10,000 stones of grain and send it to Phoenix Pass together with other grain borrowed from other parts of the court, but it would have been more than five days, or the army would retreat and be defeated without fighting. Otherwise, it will starve, which will affect morale and military spirit. Otherwise, borrow food from the people nearby, which is just a drop in the bucket and will disappoint the people of the court.
Her actions today have solved all the difficulties in front of her.
Nangong Bingyu shook her head gently and said with a smile, "Aunt Yupei, don't say that. I can do and should do it." She also knew that her doing so was undoubtedly to expose the strength of the Nangong family to the court again, or even within the four seas, but she could not let the people of the Great Jingguo fall into war in order to keep the Nangong family itself. After all, there are still people she wants to protect.
That's all, there are gains and losses.
What a stateless family? Bingyu has really grown up. Even Bingyu's mother is alive, and some of them are just beautiful. Without amazing talents, let alone such wise thoughts, calm posture and broad mind, she can't help the world at the same time.
If she is a man, it will be a blessing for the people.
With a sigh, Yupei slowly got up, patted Shu Qing's shoulder and said, "Okay, then I'll go first."
Nangong Bingyu sent her out of the garden, bowed her bow and said, "Take your time."
Nang Bingyu nodded and was about to get into the carriage when she suddenly seemed to think of something. She turned around and looked at the elegant woman standing in front of her and shouted hesitantly: "Yuer~~~"
Nangong Bingyu looked up and waited for her next words. What made this aunt speechless for a long time?
Finally, Yupei asked in a low voice, "Does no one know the news of your death and rebiring?"
Nangong Bingyu Wei pestle, she didn't expect that Aunt Yupei would ask this at this time. It was a little unclear, but she still nodded gently. Those who know are a minority, and they are all acquaintances.
Aunt Yupei frowned again, shook her head and sighed, and whispered in Nangong Bingyu's ear, "It's better not to publicize the fact that you are alive."
After saying that, he took a deep look at her and hurried into the carriage.
Nangong Bingyu stood in front of the gate of Suiyuan for a long time, thinking about what Aunt Yupei said just now. What did she mean?
Is it——
"Oh no!" Nangong Bingyu suddenly shouted softly, and her face became a little pale.

There is another update in the afternoon.
