After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy
Chapter 96 Price
The servant said respectfully, "Madam, it was the eldest son who personally instructed me to invite my cousin over."
Jiang was amazed. "This is rare. Qingqing, please go over there quickly."
Ye Qingyu stood up and said with a smile, "Aunt, I'll be back soon."
Jiang nodded.
Ye Qingyu followed the servants to the front yard and entered Gu Tingyuan's study, where she noticed the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
"First cousin, fourth cousin."
Gu Tingyuan nodded, "Qingqing, sit down."
After seeing her sit down, Gu Yuanchen winked at her. When Ye Qingyu saw Gu Yuanchen in the study, she guessed what had happened.
Ye Qingyu smiled faintly and said, "Cousin, just ask if you have anything to say."
Gu Tingyuan looked at Ye Qingyu deeply, surprised by her intelligence. "Yuanchen said you dreamed about the battle in Pingliang City. I want to know, what did you dream about?"
Ye Qingyu's smile deepened. "Excuse me, cousin, my grandfather sent an expedited letter to my uncle. Did he receive it?"
Gu Tingyuan nodded, "I received it two days ago."
Ye Qingyu: "Did your uncle tell your cousin anything about grandfather's letter?"
Gu Tingyuan glanced at Ye Qingyu and said, "My father also showed me my grandfather's letter, but he didn't say anything."
Ye Qingyu looked at Gu Yuanchen, who frowned, "Father doesn't believe it?"
Gu Tingyuan said, "Father never mentioned it to me, but he showed me the letter from my grandfather."
Gu Yuanchen knew what his elder brother meant, but his father just didn't believe it!
If he had not witnessed the strangeness of his cousin's dream in Kyoto, he would not have believed it. Besides, his father had a cheerful personality, treated people with sincerity, and trusted his subordinates. He regarded those deputy generals as brothers, so how could he doubt them?
Gu Yuanchen looked at Ye Qingyu anxiously. Ye Qingyu lowered her eyes slightly, as if she was thinking about something, or in a trance.
Gu Yuanchen asked anxiously, "Cousin? Cousin?"
Ye Qingyu raised her eyes, a look of sadness on her face. "I understand what you're asking, cousin. I just wanted to ask you, do you want to save the people of Pingliang City? Do you want to defend Pingliang City? Do you want to keep the lives of the 100,000 soldiers defending Pingliang City safe?"
Gu Tingyuan was stunned by Ye Qingyu's three questions, "That's natural."
Ye Qingyu nodded. "So, if I tell you that in my dream, the price of defending Pingliang this time was that only one out of a hundred thousand soldiers survived, and my uncle died on the battlefield, would my cousin still think it's absurd and not do anything?"
Gu Tingyuan and Gu Yuanchen both stood up in shock, their eyes filled with disbelief. "Impossible! Even if the Turks were coming with such force this time, we have to go through this every year. Besides, father is so brave and skilled in fighting. How could this happen? Impossible!"
Gu Yuanchen was also stunned. He had asked his cousin many times about the Pingliang City in his dreams, but she had never told him. So, so, was it so tragic...
Thinking about what happened in Kyoto, Gu Yuanchen knew that the outcome of this battle in Pingliang City might not be as simple as his cousin said.
Gu Yuanchen's face turned pale with fear, and he looked at his eldest brother with pleading eyes, "Brother, just think of it as me begging you. I'm not asking you to trust us. Just think of it as preparing for a rainy day. How about we make some preparations early? Father, he values relationships. Even for Father's sake, we have to prevent those consequences from happening."
Even though Gu Tingyuan did not have Gu Yuanchen's experience with Ye Qingyu in Kyoto, he has always been a person who prepares for everything in advance. What's more, his grandfather specially used the special channel of the Zhenguo Mansion to send a letter to his father. His cousin, a lady from a wealthy family, ran to Pingliang City in the snow and ice without stopping. They can fight for the future of Pingliang City and the Zhenguo Mansion, let alone him.
Gu Tingyuan pondered for a long time, then spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Okay, tell me about your plans."
Ye Qingyu's eyes lit up.
……
Yanzhou City, Yuyinfang.
Yuyinfang is the largest brothel in Yanzhou City.
Yuyinfang is not receiving any guests today, but the lascivious music continues to flow out without any decrease.
In the largest private room in Yuyinfang, there are singing birds and dancing swallows, and the atmosphere is very lively and charming.
In the huge private room, there were more than a dozen dancers and musicians, and a beautiful woman who was massaging legs and feeding wine was snuggling beside the two men.
Zhu Chengyi drank the wine that was fed to his mouth with enjoyment, listened to the pleasant music of stringed instruments, and enjoyed it with his eyes squinted.
Another man sitting nearby sighed and said, "It seems the army is really running low on food. Is Gu Changyun asking you to borrow food from me again?"
Zhu Chengyi sneered sarcastically, "It's really not much. We can only hold out for seven or eight days. Once the army's food and fodder are exhausted, the matter entrusted by the master will have a result."
"Humph, if Gu Changyun hadn't been so stubborn and obstinate, there would have been no way to win him over, and there would have been no need to sacrifice the lives of so many soldiers. The food and fodder in your Yanzhou prefect's granary would have been enough to last for a month or so."
Zheng Honglin, the prefect of Yanzhou, squinted his eyes and enjoyed himself. "Why, are you feeling bad? My food is not for you. I want to exchange it for silver."
Zhu Chengyi snorted coldly, "I don't feel sorry for them at all. These people only recognize that idiot Gu Changyun. Even if I become the head coach in the future, they won't listen to my orders. It's better for them to die!"
Zheng Honglin glanced at him sideways, "You are quite ruthless. After all, you have worked together for more than ten years."
Zhu Chengyi sat up, his face gloomy and dark. He waved his hands, "Alright, stop playing and dancing, and get out."
Seeing that he looked unhappy, Zheng Honglin also sat up and started drinking by himself.
"What? Are you angry? Gu Changyun treats you like his own brother. Are you feeling guilty or regretful?"
Zhu Chengyi's face was cold. "He treats me as a brother? Humph, if he didn't have a good family background, how could he become the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army? Brother? Humph, hypocritical faces are the most annoying. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have stayed in the position of a deputy general for nearly ten years!"
Zheng Honglin looked at Zhu Chengyi, who was filled with righteous indignation, with disdain in his eyes.
Zhu Chengyi felt that he was just a deputy general and that he was wronged. He did not think about how he, an ordinary boy without any family background, could climb to the position of deputy general under the general in just a few years. If Gu Changyun had not treated him as a brother, he would probably be just a small captain now.
"Okay, there's nothing to be angry about. The head coach position will be yours soon."
Zheng Honglin poured a glass of wine and changed the subject, "By the way, I heard Gu Yuanchen is back. Didn't he go to Kyoto? How come he's back so soon?"
Zhu Chengyi's expression improved. "Who knows? Maybe he heard about the war in Pingliang City. He brought a young lady with him. I think he just came back to take a look."
Zheng Honglin picked up his wine glass and said, "If he heard that a war had broken out in Pingliang City, he would definitely not be able to stay in Kyoto."
He raised his head and drank the whole glass of wine. "Even though coming back would mean I'd die."
He frowned, suddenly feeling something was wrong, "You said he arrived yesterday?"
