It's not scary to travel through a book, you can change your fate as a cannon fodder by yoursel

If the imperial court wants to deal with the vassal king, it is best to take a conciliatory approach and blockade the place. The northwest is already short of food, and if the enemy is deprived of food, they can win without fighting. Unfortunately, the little emperor can't wait. King Tuo has the male protagonist to help him collect money and store food, and give him advice, so he won't wait for the dilemma to happen.

It is not easy to eliminate King Tuo, and conversely, it is even more difficult for King Tuo to erode the imperial court.

The Ye family had been the garrison commander of the capital for several generations, and they had no actual combat experience. They led their troops directly to King Tuo's territory to fight against the Wolf King who had been lingering in the northwest for many years. They had no chance of winning. There were no great generals in Shu, and Liao Hua was the vanguard, so they were doomed to fail.

Zheng Rong told Weng Xiaoxiao the news, but she probably couldn't explain why. As the families of military commanders, they were all terrified when facing war. Even if their relatives didn't go this time, they might have to risk their lives next time, and they could only wait at home in fear.

This war will last at least a few years, and they will suffer a lot. "Madam, let's take care of ourselves first, so that the general doesn't have to worry about it."

Zheng Rong smiled. Weng Xiaoxiao must have understood her concerns. As a military family, the Yang family would inevitably be involved in this fight, and would most likely be the court's last resort. This was both glorious and extremely dangerous.

"We should plan ahead, but there's no need to live in fear. Let me tell you about the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, and then we can visit every place. The food in Jiangnan is not bad. I prefer the soup here, which is authentic. The dishes are a bit bland, but don't worry, we have a chef, and the food I cook is barely edible."

Zheng Rong listened to Weng Xiaoxiao's introduction with a smile, and occasionally said a few words. Her calmness was almost catching up with her. Her son had a good eye and acted quickly, otherwise how could he have gotten his turn? He really got a great bargain.

Along the way, Weng Xiaoxiao and Kang Bao took turns or accompanied Zheng Rong together, and the difficult journey became relaxing and pleasant. The days passed by in the midst of chatting and laughing.

On the first day of August, a large group of people entered Yangzhou city.

......

Xiaoyang heard the sound of carriages and horses outside and ran out in a hurry. He was a little dumbfounded when he saw the long line. Who parked here?

"Master, Master, are you back?"

Chunxia jumped out of the car first when she heard the sound, met Xiaoyang, and greeted him with a smile.

Xiaoyang just forced a smile at Chunxia and ran to the back, "Master, it's great that you're back. Something big happened in the farm, and Fenggu rushed over early in the morning, but she hasn't come back yet."

"What's the matter?" Weng Xiaoxiao jumped out of the car and asked hurriedly.

"I didn't hear the whole thing, I just knew it was the wounded soldiers causing trouble."

After finishing her business in the capital, Weng Xiaoxiao hurried back to Yangzhou, also concerned about the settlement of the wounded.

As long as there is trouble, it will be no small matter. "I'll rush over right away, Xiaoyang, there are distinguished guests in the car behind, let Qiuyue settle them down."

Xiaoyang quickly agreed and ran back to call Qiuyue and Xiaohai. Could he not be a distinguished guest? There were more than a dozen guards behind him, all of them looked majestic.

"Ping'an, bring the horse to me." After giving the order, Weng Xiaoxiao walked a few steps to Zheng Rong's car at the back.

"Madam, there is something urgent at the farm, I have to go there right now, please go to the courtyard and rest first, I'm sorry."

Zheng Rong had also heard the general idea of ​​the conversation just now. Now was not the time to ask questions, so he lifted the car curtain and said, "Just take care of your own business. Take care of yourself, too."

Weng Xiaoxiao bowed with a smile, then mounted her horse and rode away in a cloud of dust, with peace and prosperity following closely behind.

Zheng Rong didn't feel neglected at all. He couldn't help but praise his son for being lucky to have found a good wife who could help him with his work.

Qiuyue led the people to greet them, and personally took Zheng Rong and Kang Bao to the main hall to rest, and then left Chunxia to entertain them while she went to arrange the guest rooms and settle the entourage.

The lady is the master's future mother-in-law, Chunxia has quietly told her. The master has a good home, Qiuyue is very busy.

It was her first visit, so she couldn't be too slow. Qiuyue first chose the upper room next to Fenggu and asked Mrs. Gan to clean it. She went to the storeroom to pick out the things she needed. Seeing that the lady was dressed simply, she didn't decorate the room with fancy materials. She only put in the best bedding, replaced the cushions with new and generous ones, and put in the most expensive tea sets in the house.

Kangbao's room had been prepared long ago, and all the items were what the little girl liked.

After everything was packed up, Qiuyue asked them to go back to their room to wash up and rest.

......

Zheng Rong had carefully looked at the yard when he entered it. This was the property bought by his daughter-in-law herself. No matter how small it was, it was valuable, not to mention that it was not small.

"Madam, the materials of these beddings are very good. Would you like to exchange them for the ones we brought ourselves?" Zheng Rong only brought the old nanny who had always been with him.

Zheng Rong walked around the room and said, "You are capable enough to arrange it like this in such a short time. There is no need to change it."

The nanny smiled and said, "It's quite good for a small family to have this appearance."

"More than good. The girl just doesn't like luxury. Sister Sun, I haven't taken care of Shuo'er for a few days. I am destined to owe it to my son in this life. I must help him keep this daughter-in-law. My son's happiness in this life depends on this girl."

"It is a blessing for a girl to meet a mother-in-law like you. It would be a blessing for other young wives not to suffer from it."

Zheng Rong waved his hand and smiled, "I just don't understand what those people are thinking. When they were young, they were fed up with being bossed around by their mother-in-law, and now that they are old, they take revenge on their daughter-in-law? It doesn't make sense."

The old nanny didn't respond. Although life in Mobei was hard, the lady was happy in her heart. Some people seemed to be prosperous, but in fact they were suffering. So, how is your life? Only when you drink the water can you know whether it is hot or cold.

After helping Zheng Rong wash and change clothes, the nanny returned to her room.

Zheng Rong settled down there with peace of mind, feeling much more comfortable than in the Marquis' Mansion.

......

When Weng Xiaoxiao rushed to the village, she saw from afar that the villagers were holding sticks, and they were all very angry. They were ready to fight, and it seemed that a fight was about to break out.

"Everyone retreat, Uncle Liu, let Zhuangzi's people retreat." Weng Xiaoxiao shouted while standing on her horse.

"Boss?" Liu Yuan heard the voice and looked over. Seeing that it was Weng Xiaoxiao, he was immediately overjoyed. "Boss is back, boss is back! Everyone, stand back. Do you hear me? Everyone, retreat!"

Liu Yuan pushed through the crowd and squeezed to where Weng Xiaoxiao was, and Feng Gu also followed.

"Uncle Liu, let's calm down and sit aside for a while. I will definitely give everyone justice."

Liu Yuan obeyed and went over to settle the villagers.

Feng Gu was anxious, but she had no way to report to Weng Xiaoxiao privately at the moment.
