Chapter 118 Do you think Zhou Ruyuan is stupid?
When Shen Yuanjing heard that he wanted to read, his shoulders immediately slumped.
"Sister, let me tell you the truth, I am not good at studying at all. If my father, grandparents, and grandmothers hadn't been forcing me to study, I wouldn't even be able to pass the exam as a child student!"
< br>Others don’t know it clearly, but he understands it very well in his heart.
In the past, people often praised him, saying that he was the princess's son, the Queen Mother's favorite grandson, and His Majesty's beloved nephew. His father was a leading civil servant. He had outstanding literary talent when he was young, and he would definitely inherit it. His father's demeanor was too high, and if he couldn't do it, he would bring shame to the family.
Actually, he has always known how much he weighs. Now he doesn’t have to be held up by others, and no one is chasing after him to watch him take the imperial examination. Every time he practices martial arts, he secretly feels happy. .
Unexpectedly, his grandparents and father ignored him, but his eldest sister stood up and urged him to study?
Could he not be able to escape the fate of studying and taking the imperial examination in this life?
Shen Yuanjing opened the box angrily, and after seeing the words on the book, his eyes widened in disbelief!
“Sister, are you talking about these books?” The corners of Shen Yuanjing’s mouth kept rising.
A smile flashed in the corner of Shen Lanxi's eyes: "Yes, your attitude is that you don't want to read it?"
Shen Yuanjing was afraid that her elder sister would regret it, so she quickly took two books and hugged them in her arms.
"No, I want to see it, I want to see it so much. Big sister, no no... Big brother, I won't delay your meal, let's go!"
Shen Lanxi looked funny He hugged his belly and left with his elder brother like a thief.
Just like the watermelon thief, from the looks of it, the injury to his back should be fine!
Time flies and the weather is good. Just when the fresh water on the ship is about to run out, it rains heavily and the weather does not clear up for three consecutive days. All the water-carrying equipment on the ship is full. Enough to support them to reach Xiguan!
During this period, Xiaoxue sent letters several times, including news from the capital, news from Guigu, news from Jinmen, Xiguan, Beifang, Dongchuan, and news from the northwest!
She called Liu Yanhui, Wei Dongzhu, Cheng Zheng and others to discuss matters together!
“In the past few days, I have received three letters from the northwest!”
“In the first letter, three more cities were lost in the northwest.”
"The second letter, the food and fodder of the Northern Conquest Army was burned."
"The third letter, the imperial court intends to negotiate peace with the Turks, Tatars, and Persia!"
This is a battle report from the imperial court, how could she Do you know?
Wei Dongzhu glanced at the three letters in Shen Lanxi's hand and quickly looked away.
Battle reports such as the burning of grain and grass are a shame. The court must block the news and not let outsiders know. Is it possible that the Shen family may appear to be ordered to be exiled, but in fact there are hidden tricks?
"Idle time is idle, why don't we all discuss how you see the issue of peace talks!"
Wei Dongzhu immediately slapped the table.
"The Turkic and Tatar Persians have repeatedly invaded our territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty and killed our people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There is no peace negotiation with them, only war!"
Liu Yanhui and others looked at Wei Dong one by one. Eyes, curious why his reaction was so big!
You must know that some people in their table have been framed, and some have been assassinated by relatives of the emperor. To put it bluntly, they are not looking forward to the change of dynasty, and they are already kind-hearted.
Among them, Hu Zhu is the only exception!
Liu Yan opened his mouth and said: "We need food and grass to start a war. Now there is a severe drought in the north, refugee riots, intrusion from three powerful enemies outside, and internal and external troubles. There are no conditions for a war!"
As expected of someone from the Ministry of Household Affairs, he never leaves his job without opening his mouth!
Cheng Zheng has already written: "There can only be peace talks, there is no other way!"
Sang Guo also wrote: "The food and grass were burned, their handiwork!"
As a military general, Wei Dongzhu was furious when he heard the word "peace talks", but there was nothing he could do!
Autumn is approaching soon, and the water and grass are abundant. The three Turkic parties will definitely take advantage of the strength of their troops and horses to launch an attack, seize the opportunity to seize the city, plunder food and property, and prepare for the winter.
Although the northwest is not as cold as Dongchuan, it is just as difficult when winter comes. If we negotiate now, we may be able to gain some breathing space for the winter!
"Since there is no way to change the peace talks, we should be held accountable!" Based on Wei Dongzhu's experience, something as important as food and grass must be carefully guarded and guarded, and it is impossible for foreign enemies to succeed. Unless there are two possibilities, one is that there is a traitor, and the other is that the person escorting is lax and his whereabouts are leaked! Liu Yan replied: "The person who escorted the grain and grass should be held accountable."
Cheng Zheng and others reconsidered!
Shen Lanxi's expression was a little subtle. She raised her eyebrows and said, "The person escorting the grain and grass is Zhou Ruyuan!"
Liu Yan returned to Wei Dongzhu and everyone froze.
Cheng Zheng and other students came over slowly. This grain and grass transportation officer had the same name as their Great Zhou War God!
"Ahem~" Liu Yanhui coughed awkwardly twice, attracting the attention of the people at the table.
"Don't look at me. The fish I've eaten in the past two days has been too salty to save water. I drank less water!"
When Wei Dongzhu saw him like this, he understood that he Know Shen Lanxi’s identity.
“I’ll give you a mouthful of water!” With a straight face, he lifted the teapot and poured a glass of water for Liu Yanhui!
The latter quickly held the cup and blocked his mouth!
When the name Zhou Ruyuan was mentioned again, Shen Lanxi felt no emotion at all!
Every wrong has its own debtor, and she has already avenged her previous revenge. If Zhou Ruyuan comes to your door again, it will be a different account!
"Do you think Zhou Ruyuan is stupid?"
After Shen Lanxi finished speaking, Liu Yanhui immediately heard a heartbreaking cough, and this time he was really choking.
Wei Dongzhu came closer to Liu Yan and was on his right hand side. He sprayed half of his body with water. Now his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Liu Yanhui almost coughed out his heart and liver. He finally calmed down the itching in his throat and picked up the handkerchief to wipe his mouth.
Wei Dongzhu's face turned darker, and he forcefully pulled back the corner of his clothes from Liu Yanhui's hand.
Damn it, Liu Yan is dressed like a rich man in his usual clothes, why is he so slovenly?
Wei Dongzhu looked at the water stains on his clothes and his face turned darker!
Without any dignity, he stood up and moved to the side.
Shen Lanxi: “…”
"I'm sorry, I'm so thirsty. I drank in a hurry!
Shen Lanxi: Do you believe me?
"Zhou Ruyuan is definitely not stupid. If he was stupid, how could he be banned? God of War Zhou! "Liu Yanhui quickly turned his attention to the main topic!
Shen Lanxi: "Then do you think he will collude with foreigners? "
"It's even more impossible. He is the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If the city is lost, what good will it do to him! "Liu Yanhui denied it again.
Wei Dongzhu said with anger in his tone: "Then he made an oversight. "
Cheng Zheng: "Why would the God of War transport grain and grass? "
This question is on point again.
Shen Lanxi was ambiguous: "He made some mistakes that men make! ”
Everyone who knows the inside story understands this sentence.
Wei Dongzhu and Liu Yanhui asked in unison: Could it be related to her?
