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

Chapter 248: Writing a Letter to the Emperor and Borrowing Food from Qingzhou

"...Not really."

"..."

They frowned and looked at Bai Liezhao. They couldn't hit him, but they could scold him...

But in this situation, if they don't fight, it will be of no use.

Cursing a few times won't relieve your anger at all.

They wanted to kill Bai Liezhao! Cut off his flesh and blood and give them to the soldiers in the army! In exchange for food! !

They all hated him.

But seeing him right in front of me and being unable to do anything was such a painful feeling.

General Shi frowned and looked at several generals. He knew that these generals were uncomfortable and sad.

These soldiers had come all this way with great difficulty, but in the end they still had no food to eat.

Just because of a few sons of princes and nobles...after them, they might starve to death here.

This situation was something they had not expected.

If they really starved to death here, how would these generals explain to their families? !

General Shi understood why these generals were so angry.

But you must consider the overall situation.

What if we just rely on the recklessness of these generals? The emperor and the empress will definitely be unhappy.

Although everyone may think that the lives of so many people are certainly more valuable than the three brothers of the Bai family, their superiors do not think so.

In feudal society, those in power are respected, and they can even treat human life as worthless for their own sake.

Perhaps in the eyes of these prodigal sons, these ordinary people and ordinary soldiers are not even as good as the slaves around the nobles.

There is nothing I can do.

I really know what these superiors in feudal society are thinking, so I can only tell the generals under me and say it to them.

"Let's be patient!"

"Don't detain him for the time being. Send him to my room and I will take care of him myself."

"I want to see what he can do!"

The reason why he sent Bai Liezhao to his room was that he wanted to keep an eye on Bai Liezhao and prevent him from being beaten or scolded by the other generals.

Well, that would be troublesome.

This wasn't because of Bai Liezhao, it was mainly because of his subordinates. If they were demoted because of this, and the emperor was angry with them and didn't let them get promoted, wouldn't that be a big problem? !

In addition...a gleam of light flashed in General Shi's eyes.

If he had not done anything at all, the emperor and the empress would certainly punish him severely, otherwise he would not be able to convince the people.

If someone in their army took action, the emperor and the empress would certainly be gentle with them.

Everyone protects their own children, let alone the emperor and the empress.

General Shi thought: When Zhao Bingyu's eldest son Bai Chuyao, after his mother passed away, his stepmother and stepdaughter were about to become the legitimate heir! He knelt down outside the Jinluan Palace and drank the poison himself! How tragic!

The emperor and empress were so heartbroken.

Right now, Zhao Bingyu’s eldest son, Bai Chuyao, will not live past the age of 40.

Only Bai Liezhao and Bai Qingze are left. Who can not protect these two little seedlings?

General Shi thought that he had received the favor of the Bai family's mistress in the past, but he never expected that... the child born by the Bai family's mistress would be like this.

He frowned and stared at the child carefully, but no matter how he looked at him, he felt that they didn't look alike.

How could this child be so despicable! ! Much more despicable than I had imagined. Sigh, his eyes were full of disappointment.

"Somebody come!"

General Shi waved his hand and asked his soldiers to send the second son of the Bai family to his tent. Then he spoke to the people below.

"We should send someone to the imperial court as fast as possible to tell His Majesty that we don't have that much food and fodder, and ask His Majesty to quickly transport some food and fodder."

"...Can this be done in time?!"

They said worriedly, "It will take at least half a month to go back and forth!"

"How about... we borrow some food and fodder from nearby Qingzhou?!"

General Shi frowned and said, "This method is against the rules, but the situation is urgent now, so we can only kill first and report later! Your Majesty... I believe you will understand us!"

"The general is not allowed to take military orders when he is away from home! His Majesty told us so before!"

"If Your Majesty was really so pedantic when we were conquering the world, we would not have helped Your Majesty like this."

They all nodded, not thinking that His Majesty would be unhappy about this matter, so they planned to let them go to Qingzhou to borrow food.

"General Zhou, write a letter to Qingzhou to borrow food and fodder."

"We will send someone to the imperial court as fast as possible to ask them to send another batch of food and fodder!"

"This is an urgent matter. Also...explain the situation here! Your Majesty and Qingzhou will provide us with food and fodder."

"okay."

They immediately divided the work.

Some people hurriedly wrote letters to the emperor, while others prepared to go to nearby Qingzhou to borrow food and fodder.

General Zhou took the initiative to speak to General Shi.

"General, I was with Bai Liezhao to look after the food at that time. I didn't expect that he was so cunning and secretly put poison into the food. After all, he was eating it himself..."

"Well, he just wanted to let his elder brother and younger brother live, even if he couldn't live himself."

"He put poison in it, and I felt very sad. If I hadn't failed to take good care of it, I'm afraid this wouldn't have happened."

He said to General Shi with a guilty look on his face: "Otherwise... I will make amends by writing a letter to the governor of Qingzhou to ask him to borrow food and grass."

"Just use my checkmate card!"

Then, he said to General Shi very sincerely: "Leave all of this to me."

"After that, General, you go and take a rest. After the letter from Qingzhou is sent out, I will write another letter to Kyoto to apologize!!"

Hearing this, General Shi said quickly, "Oh, Lao Zhou! This matter has nothing to do with you.

Don’t blame yourself like this!”

"Old Li has fallen into a trap... We can't save him..."

"Hey, now, I don't know how Lao Li and the others are doing."

"We wanted to help, but now all the food and fodder is gone! We must quickly capture Huai County, otherwise what shall we do with the food and fodder?!"

"You can't just wait here forever."

"I guess... Bai Liezhao has put poison in the food, and the people on the other side should know about it! King Cheng will definitely send people to attack our base camp at this time. What should we do?!"
