Mi Zhu didn't dare to ask directly, but asked in a roundabout way.

As the son of a well-known merchant family, he still knows this skill.

"Zizhong, I want to correct you. Now there are more than 15 people on my side, and there are 23 people, and they are increasing every day. I am also worried!" Xu Ding sighed, and said:

"Originally, I planned to take them to Weiyuan Island, but there is still a long way to go to Donglai, and since I am not the prefect of Donglai, it will be troublesome to go to Donglai, so I am deeply worried. I wonder if Zizhong can help I'm thinking of a solution."

23 million people.

Mi Zhu's heart skipped a beat.

Fortunately, the food was delivered quickly. If Xu Ding asked for it, Tao Qian would think it was too little to send [-] shi.

But when he heard the second half of Xu Ding's sentence, Mi Zhu also frowned.

I don't know what Xu Ding means?

Maybe he doesn't want to take back Donglai.

There is no plan to bring these 23 people there, so where does he want to put these people.

It seems reasonable and unreasonable to bring them all to the island.

It's not easy to ask Xu Ding to leave Xuzhou now.

"This... the prince's worries are indeed... there are indeed difficulties. Zhu has little knowledge and has no good strategies for a while, so he dare not belittle himself." Mi Zhu thought for a while, and finally shook his head, not daring to speak casually.

Xu Ding observed Mi Zhu's reaction, and when he saw what he said, he raised his glass and said, "Hahaha, forget it, if you are drunk today, don't care about worrying about tomorrow, let's not mention this nerve-wracking thing, come on." Zizhong, let's drink."

This meal lasted until the afternoon, when Mi Zhu left drunkenly and returned to Tan County, Tao Qian asked, "Zi Zhong, what's the matter? When did Xu Ding agree to leave?"

Mi Zhu replied slightly ashamed: "My lord, Zhu is incompetent and didn't ask Marquis Weihai when he will leave!"

"Hmm! Zizhong, what do you mean?" Tao Qian's face suddenly changed when he heard the words, revealing a trace of warmth and anger.

Mi Zhu was not such a useless person, why did he send [-] shi of grain, and he didn't even dare to ask.

Mi Zhu replied truthfully: "My lord, I only found out after I sat in the Marquis of Weihai's tent today and chatted with him that 23 people have gathered in Marquis Weihai's side, and the number is increasing by tens of thousands every day."

Speaking of this, Mi Zhu paused for a moment, and looked at Tao Qian's face. Sure enough, Tao Qian's face was shocked, and then worried.

Then he continued: "I'm afraid the food we sent won't last for a few days, and Marquis Weihai said it's still a long way to Donglai, and since he's not a prefect, he doesn't want to harass the place, so he doesn't know where to go for a while. !"

Tao Qian's heart was also shaken after listening.

p, what does Xu Ding mean.

It's not good for you to harass Donglai, but you have the nerve to harass me Xuzhou.

This guy doesn't want to stay in Xuzhou, does he?

It's still this guy who has taken a fancy to his own Xuzhou, and he is self-respecting with the people.

After Mi Zhu finished speaking, she quietly waited for Tao Qian's next words.

After a long time, Tao Qian said: "Zi Zhong, you will send another [-] shi of grain tomorrow. This time, you can find out what Xu Ding wants to do. If there is a shortage of grain, I, Xuzhou, can give it to him and help his people survive the famine, but If you want to occupy my city and invade Xuzhou, I, Tao Gongzu, am not a vegetarian."

After speaking, Tao Qian shook his sleeves and left the hall.

Mi Zhu slightly grinned, and respectfully sent Tao Qian away with a trace of solemnity on his face.

Tomorrow is a heavy task.

This is how he will talk to Xu Ding.

Xu Ding treated him with such courtesy and made him a confidant, how could he have the nerve to expel him.

After tossing and turning all night, Mi Zhu went to Lanling City with [-] shi of grain the next day.

This time, Xu Ding didn't wait for Mi Zhu to come over, and brought his cavalry to meet him ten miles away from the camp.

Seeing this, Zizhong was even more moved.

After the meeting, they only chatted and did not dare to mention whether Xu Ding wanted to occupy the mountain in Xuzhou as king.

However, Xu Ding took the initiative to say: "Zizhong, you can take the food back. I don't want to embarrass you, so you can tell Tao Shijun that I, Xu Ding, are not greedy for his food. The food and grass obtained from the leftover can still last for a while.

And it's not because I don't want to leave, I really don't know where to go, since he is hostile to me, I will leave now, and I will take 28 people to Weiyuan Island. "

28?

Wasn't it 23 yesterday?

It exploded by [-] a day.

Mi Zhu had an ominous premonition.

Maybe it didn't attract all the people from the west of Donghai County to the north of Pengcheng Kingdom.

In this way, these places will not be turned into empty cities by him.

For a moment Mi Zhu didn't know how to reply.

"But Zizhong, I want to ask you for a favor." Xu Ding suddenly said again.

Mi Zhu said: "Your Majesty, please speak!"

Xu Dingdao: "I would like to ask Zizhong to talk to Tao Shijun, can we let us go to the sea from the east, so that the people can travel a lot less, and there will be no further increase in the situation of relying on the people, I don't want to Walking from Langya County, the number of people reached 50 million."

Numbers are too sensitive for Mi Zhu, who was born in a merchant family.

Of course, 50 million is a sensitive word for anyone.

Mi Zhu said: "Okay! I will help Junhou to mention it to the lord."

Soon Mi Zhu returned to Tan County and told the truth.

"What? He wants to use the road to go east and get on the boat from here." Cao Hong hurriedly stood up and said:

"My lord, absolutely not. Xu Ding must be coveting my Xuzhou. This is a false plan to attack Guo."

When Tao Qian heard it, his face turned dark, and Mi Zhu's expression was very wrong.

Mi Zhu hurriedly said: "My lord, don't listen to his nonsense. For the sake of loyalty and righteousness, Marquis Weihai has no covetous heart. He just wants to send the people away, and he also has a lot of appreciation for the lord's announcement of Xuzhou. Please check it out, my lord." !"

Zhao Yu and Wang Lang couldn't see the slanderous accusations made by such a treacherous villain like Cao Hong, so they stood up to support Mi Zhu, expressing that Xu Ding has the style of a gentleman and would not do such a dirty thing.
