Su Rong frowned and thought deeply after hearing this.
Qin Ruo was the person she wanted personally from Prince Yan Huisheng to pull people out of the bitter cold land and bring them to Southern Chu. He was talented and she would not mistreat those who followed him and loyal to him. Therefore, she has trusted him very much for so many years. his.
Because of this, she made what she thought was a comprehensive arrangement regarding food and grass before leaving Beijing.
She trusts Uncle Xie and Mr. Cui very much. She also trusts Qin Ruo, Ning Ze and Jiang Zhu. Each of these five people is someone he trusts.
But something did happen to the food and grass.
She said to Zhang Yun: "I don't think it's Qin Ruo. He is not an ignorant person. Food and grass are a big deal. Even if he goes back, he will arrange for trustworthy and steady people to handle it properly before returning to the capital. Even if it is his wife He almost had a miscarriage. Because he knew very well that food and grass were a serious matter and there was no room for any problems."
Qin Ruo's wife, Chu Guanlan, was carefully selected for Qin Ruo. She was the lively and smart little county head of a county prince in the clan. After their marriage, the couple loved each other, but they never had any children. A while ago, Chu Guanlan Lan finally got pregnant, and the couple were very happy. Now that Chu Guanlan almost had a miscarriage, it was reasonable for Qin Ruo to be anxious.
After all, he is not the only one responsible for the food and grass matters, as he has arranged for so many people.
Zhang Yundao: "The clues that have been found now are just here. If the king believes him, he can only continue to investigate. But I feel that we should investigate from him. After all, the matter happened to him. The food and grass were found after he left. matter."
Su Rong nodded, "Check!"
Zhang Jun turned around and left.
Cui Yanjin got the news and came over, "Cousin, let's seize Wei's food and grass quickly. Otherwise, if Wei gets the news and protects the food and grass, we will just stare at it, or Wei will counterattack. Wouldn't it be bad?"
Su Rong shook his head, "Find the evil spirit first. If the evil spirit is not eliminated, it will cause trouble even if the food and grass are taken away."
Cui Yanjin said bitterly, "I don't know who the ghost is. Don't let me know, otherwise I will chop him into pieces."
He looked at Su Rong and said, "You can't find out the evil spirits in one day. If you don't seize the food and grass from the Wei Dynasty, are you waiting for us to run out of ammunition and food?"
Su Rong glanced at him and said, "Didn't your cousin take people to prepare food and grass? Just wait for news from him."
“Okay!” Cui Yanjin sighed.
After he left, the old Protector walked into the central military tent with his hands behind his back. Seeing Su Rong frowning and tying his eyebrows into knots, he said, "Little girl, you didn't expect that, did you? You stabbed Yuan Zhao in the back, and he was behind you." Without knowing it, I stabbed you in the back."
Su Rong sighed, "I just can't figure out who it is."
"When we are marching and fighting, we are most afraid of something happening to the grain and fodder in the rear. Once something happens, we will be defeated without a fight." The old protector of the country said: "The more it is at this time, the more important it is to keep the news secret and not reveal anything, otherwise the morale of the army will be chaotic." Su Rong Nodding, "I know this. Except for a few people, no one knows about it yet. The news has been kept secret."
The old Protector nodded, "How many days will the army have enough food and grass?"
"No more than ten days." Su Rong said: "But I have buried two granaries at the border in advance, which is enough for the army to meet the urgent needs for half a month. Only Zhou Gu and I know that he has already taken people there."
The old Protector nodded appreciatively, "Yes, I used this trick when I was marching and fighting. Even the most trustworthy people are afraid that there will be something wrong with the food and fodder. Once there is something wrong with the food and fodder, it will be the lives of many soldiers in the army." .”
He sighed, "In critical moments, if something goes wrong, it can really be used."
Su Rong was in a better mood, "Yes, Zhou Gu learned this trick from you. When preparing for the war, he secretly had two granaries prepared. Only I knew about it and he knew about it."
The old Protector praised him, "You brat, he was originally a literary student, but he excelled in martial arts. He also learned the art of war better than his brothers."
He sighed with emotion, "I really couldn't bear to let him chase you to Nanchu. Who knows, but later on, I, your grandmother, and his mother followed you."
And after staying for a long time, I didn’t even want to go back. The other grandchildren at home wrote letters one by one saying that they missed them. Even so, he had a hardened heart and stayed in Nanchu. As he got older, he would naturally stay wherever he felt comfortable. He now loves his great-granddaughter and great-grandson the most.
Su Ronxiao said, "He is excellent in both civil and military skills."
"Yes, otherwise I wouldn't have been remembered for so many years." The old protector snorted, "Little girl, have you ever thought about Qin Ruo's sister, the problem lies with her?"
Su Rong stopped laughing instantly.
She had never thought about how many years had passed since Qin Luan had devoted herself to the affairs of women's school. In her opinion, she should have given up on Zhou Gu long ago. After all, what she had said to Zhou Gu over the years , I can probably count them all on one finger. Since Zhou Gu knew her thoughts, he had never interacted with her.
The old protector of the country said: "You are still too young. You are also big-hearted and careless. Although you are from a daughter's family, what Xie Yuan has taught you since you were young is the way of the world. Although you have worked hard these years, you are still broad-minded. You are broad and able to accommodate knowledgeable and talented people, and they are indeed used by you. Generally speaking, you have a keen eye for employing people, making Nanchu's political achievements prosperous. Your eyes never dwell on small things. There is nothing wrong with spending time and effort. After all, you are the person who does big things and the king in charge of the world. Naturally, you cannot cling to petty loves and trivial matters. But precisely for this reason, you do not understand the subtleties. You have to know , some women, if they fall in love with someone, their thoughts will turn over and over again, and they will be filled with worries. Some people can let it go, while some people will never let it go until death. What kind of person do you think Qin Luan is? She can't even let go of Ruian Ruian. Xie Lin from the palace won’t even marry, so she didn’t come to Nanchu out of desperation.”
Su Rong sat up straight and was silent for a while before saying, "Grandpa said so."
She immediately summoned someone, "Send a message to Zhang Yun to check on Qin Luan."
This person should have gone immediately.
After Su Rong finished giving instructions, she looked back at the old Protector, "Grandpa, what is Qin Luan doing? I'm not bad to her. If it's just to get Zhou Gu, why should she? She knows that Zhou Gu has been hiding all these years. If she wanted to destroy Nanchu? How could I feel sorry for her? What good would it do her to destroy Nanchu? In other words, what did Yuan Zhao promise her? To let her harm Nanchu like this? "
The old Protector shook his head and couldn't guess. Based on his lifetime experience, he felt that the problem might be with Qin Luan. "I have to ask her. Women, sometimes they get into trouble. She can't even pull back a mule. Who knows what she is thinking?" (End of Chapter)
