In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

Chapter 223: The ten thousand stones of rice that Bai Lu brought out did not enter the soldiers’ sto

In addition, these Dawu soldiers can also help take care of them, give them some food, and prevent them from being abused.

Then wasn't I also helping them secretly? !

Then you won't offend either side. This is a technical job.

Bai Lu thought, she must protect her own life!

Afterwards, Master Jiang said leisurely: "I will stay at your house from now on. I don't have anything to do anyway."

"I don't want to be on the front line. Looking at the state of the prefect...tsk tsk."

As he spoke, he looked at Bai Lu leisurely, "There should be room in your house, right? I need to take a shower and change clothes."

Bai Lu thought about it and realized that Young Master Jiang had never met the young prince and Ximen Liuyun, so there was no need to worry and she could just let him go.

So Bai Lu said to him with confidence: "There is room. Go and take a look. You can live in any room you like."

Young Master Jiang was immediately delighted.

"Oh, thank you, White Lady."

After saying this, he turned and walked away, his steps as graceful as a crane.

This person... is still acting arrogantly at a time like this. He really doesn't feel tired.

Bai Lu frowned.

At this moment, Shaoyao Mudan and the others came forward and asked Bailu: "Should we take them to the back mountain? Where is the back mountain?"

"..."

Bai Lu frowned and looked at the wounded soldiers, all of whom were soldiers from Liangzhou.

Bai Lu asked the Liangzhou soldiers, "It will take us about two hours to reach the back mountain. Have you eaten yet?"

Hearing this, the wounded soldiers were stunned, and then the sound of their stomachs growling could be heard in the empty street.

The soldiers said very sadly: "We didn't eat."

"How long have you not eaten?"

Bai Lu knew that it was impossible for the people and soldiers in ancient times to eat meat and rice for every meal like modern people, but they had to eat three meals a day.

Otherwise, fighting is so exhausting.

After that, the Liangzhou soldier replied in a low voice: "Well, I haven't eaten for nearly a day..." "By the way, White Lady."

They suddenly showed an expectant look on their faces: "Mr. Jiang just told us that you will provide us with food."

"Is this true? Can we have a meal?"

"If...if it's really difficult for you, you can just not provide us with food, but we are really too hungry."

"Can you... boil some hot water for us to drink? As long as we have water, we can be full."

"..."

Hearing this, Bai Lu was completely stunned.

"You mean to say that you haven't eaten much all day?!"

"Didn't I give you 100,000 dan of grain before?! This 100,000 dan of grain was asked of me by His Royal Highness King Cheng. This grain should be enough for you to eat for a while!"

"......When did it happen?"

The Liangzhou soldiers nearby couldn't help but mutter, "The food didn't even make it into our stomachs. We didn't even get to eat it!"

"We have indeed been short of food for many days. His Royal Highness King Cheng also said that he would go to the wealthy merchants to gather some for us, but there has been no movement!"

"Don't believe her. She might be fooling you. I don't believe that His Royal Highness King Cheng will not give us food!"

Some soldiers did not believe Bai Lu's words and began to refute loudly with angry looks on their faces.

"This woman might be a traitor, deliberately trying to sow discord among us!"

"We don't believe His Royal Highness King Cheng would do this!!!"

Bai Lu was silent.

She didn't know what expression she should show at this moment.

It turned out that these soldiers did not get to eat their own food.

They are hungry.

Bai Lu sighed, "I have raised 100,000 dan of grain for His Royal Highness King Cheng. This is true. Many people in Lianhua Town know about it. You can go to our rice shop to ask."

"Including Master Shen Congyun, Mr. Zhao, Mr. Li... they all knew about it because I was in charge of the grain they borrowed."

"You can go and ask around! If I, Bai Lu, talk nonsense, I will be struck by lightning and die!"

Bai Lu's voice was firm and decisive. Standing in the wind, he had an imposing manner and his confidence shocked all the soldiers present.

Their tone suddenly weakened.

"real or fake?"

Bai Lu was delighted: "I swear on my seven children!"

"If what I said is false, God will strike you with lightning!"

"!!!"

The Liangzhou soldiers were completely silent.

"...We believe you, White Lady."

"We thought...there was no food at all, but we didn't expect that you, Lady Bai, would actually take out 100,000 dan of food. Thank you very much."

As they spoke, the soldiers saluted Bai Lu.

They clasped their fists and spoke to Bai Lu very seriously.

At this time, these soldiers didn’t know whether they would lose their heads tomorrow, so they didn’t care about anything else.

However, they all said with despair, "We didn't expect... His Royal Highness King Cheng lied to us... They didn't even want us to have enough food... Then, where did all the food go?"

The wounded soldiers were silent for a moment, then said, "It should be given to those soldiers whose injuries are relatively minor and who can still move, right?!"

"And those soldiers who haven't been injured recently have eaten it."

"We wounded soldiers... can only eat one meal of porridge a day."

"His Royal Highness King Cheng told us that if we defeat Dawu's army, we wounded soldiers can have a meal, so we are working so hard!"

"I see!"

Bai Lu nodded, and had a rough idea in her mind.

The wounded soldiers could not get enough food because King Cheng gave the good food to the soldiers who were able to move.

As for the wounded soldiers, they probably had no advantage on the battlefield, so they were not given food.

Instead, they were told that they would have no food to eat from now on, and if they wanted to eat, they would have to fight for it themselves.

As long as they capture the city and defeat Dawu's army, they can have a meal.

Bai Lu then said to the wounded soldiers, "Count, how many people are there in total?"

"I'll ask our maid to cook later."

She had 50 maids at home, so she could cook for two thousand people, but she needed to borrow pots from the common people's homes.

But now... this is the order given to me by King Cheng, and I have no choice but to do it.

And it’s just a few meals, I’m still very rich.

Bailu let Shaoyao, Mudan and the others use the rice in her warehouse at will, and gave the key of another warehouse to Shaoyao.
