Traveling through the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a story of survival in troubled tim

"Now that you've made up your mind, go ahead and do it."

"But your father and the others knew—"

Before the old lady could finish her words, Wen Shu interrupted her, "Grandma, my father and the others won't know now, and they won't know for a long time."

After saying that, he propped himself up, knocked his head on the edge of the bed, and said flatteringly, "Grandma, you know that my father asked me to go home because he wanted you to help me find a good husband, right?"

After hearing this, the old lady did not deny it!

Seeing Wenshu looking very excited...

Looking at Wenshu leaning against the bed, I stroked her hair which was messed up by sleeping and sighed in my heart.

Before Wenshu arrived, she received a letter from the third brother saying that Wenshu was now well and that her family back home did not know about her previous experience.

Let her, as a mother, take control and entrust her daughter Pengpeng to a good family.

Without even meeting Wenshu, she agreed with her eyes closed. However, after spending some time together, she found out that Wenshu was not the type to stay at home and serve her husband and parents-in-law.

What's more, the people she had were also distributed to her.

"As for your in-laws, you can take care of it yourself. If you meet someone suitable, you can meet them. After all, you've already cast your net out, and it's too late to close it in now!"

"Grandma is wise"

After getting the promise, Wenshu felt relieved. After all, this was not the only thing her father had mentioned before.

"With grandma's words, Pengpeng feels relieved!" Wenshu looked at the old lady with a smile on her face, her eyes sparkling.

"Heh, little girl, what are you planning now?" Although the old lady said this, she knew in her heart that Wen Shu was about to take action.

"What do you need me to do...?" the old lady asked with a puzzled look.

"Grandma, I need to go out for a while, and I need you to cover for me." Wen Shu looked at the old lady seriously and said.

"Go out—" When the old lady heard this, she sat up in shock, somewhat incredulous.

"Where are you going? It's a mess outside now. You will lose your life if you are not careful." The old lady looked at Wen Shu worriedly.

Although she did not say she disagreed, Wenshu still felt that the old lady did not support her decision.

"Grandma, last year my eldest brother returned from the middle of summer with all the family money, but by the time he got home he didn't make it to the reunion day."

We fled in a hurry last year. Along the way, especially by water, if it weren't for the protection of the people sent by my grandmother, we would never have returned safely.

"Why are you talking about the past again..."

Speaking of last year, the old lady was obviously reluctant to mention it.

"Grandmother, Luoyang is abandoned. Last November, that old scoundrel Sima Yue, along with his trusted ministers and elite soldiers, marched to Xuchang, leaving behind the old, weak, and disabled soldiers of the city, along with the current commander, to guard Luoyang."

Although the old lady lived in seclusion in the mountains and was not aware of the situation outside, her descendants were involved in the court.

Moreover, her second son traveled extensively on business, and although she hadn't explained the dire situation outside to her, the guards around them were all carefully selected by her.

No one told her what was happening outside. There were strong winds and strong floods outside, so it was impossible for no news to leak in.

At the beginning of this year, secret decrees to capture the king were sent out from Luoyang City one after another.

e=(′o｀*)))Alas——

Thinking of this, the old woman sighed. Although she didn't know that she couldn't stop her, she thought about it and realized that as an old woman, she couldn't help in other areas, but there were some things she could indeed give some advice on.

"I know you want to do great things, but all you lack are men, horses, and money."

Wenshu came here tonight, hoping to persuade her grandmother to cover for her when she was gone, but she hadn't expected this.

Hearing this, Wen Shu immediately perked up, sitting up straight with her back erected, and straining her ears to not miss a single word.

"Grandma, you have a way..."

She is short of money now, but she has no idea whether these five-bead coins can be used when wars break out everywhere, not to mention that Bashu has its own special currency in circulation.

Therefore, she took advantage of the current situation before it became too chaotic and converted as much of her money as possible into resources.

-

When the old lady heard Wenshu's question, she glanced at her. Sure enough, this little girl was very thoughtful. She had just thrown out a small bait, but the girl lost her patience.

Whatever!

"Do you know Zhang Gui..."

"Grandma, are you talking about going to Liangzhou?"

The horses of Liangzhou were rampant all over the world, and they were well-known throughout the world. Not to mention that in the second year of Yongjia, the governor recruited a hundred warriors and defeated Wang Mi.

Later, the two armies fought at Qilijian and lifted the siege of the capital.

Since then, Liangzhou's reputation for bravery and fighting skills has spread throughout the world.

However, Wenshu knew more than that. In the fifth year of Yongjia, this era clearly defined what loyalty, what a monarch, and what a minister were.

Liangzhou Governor Zhang Gui sent troops thousands of miles away twice to relieve the siege of Luoyang, but this was the last time. Moreover, because of the fall of the north, the people sent by Zhang Gui were either killed or detained.

Going to Liangzhou now is the most appropriate time. She just needs to be careful and do it secretly so as not to attract the attention of the local people in Liangzhou.

"Grandma, I know what to do..."

Wenshu had a plan in mind and was thinking about what to use to exchange with the locals.

"Let me point you in a direction. Your second uncle started a business with someone in Liangzhou a few years ago. Tea and silk are extremely rare there. Only by exchanging with the local noble families can you get something for nothing!"

"But the situation has been tense lately. Will they exchange with us?"

The old lady smiled when she heard this, but she didn't say anything explicitly. She just said in a gloomy voice, "In a large family, there are always some people who lack the ability but still want to take on responsibilities that are not commensurate with their ability. As long as you promise enough benefits, they will always be shaken.

Even with a knife hanging over his head, his position is not so firm when faced with sufficient interests."

Liangzhou, the Liangzhou ruled by Zhang Gui, she knew that even after Luoyang fell, Liangzhou remained loyal to the Jin Dynasty and paid tribute to the Jin Dynasty on time.

The brave generals of Liangzhou who were about to be trapped felt powerless when they thought of their fate.

Forget it. People who are already struggling in the sea of ​​suffering are trying every possible way to save themselves. Even her family background is not enough in front of Liangzhou.

It's totally impossible to rely on my second uncle's approach.

If it were a noble family with a respected leader, it might work, but it was obviously impossible for their family.

It seems that before she leaves, she still needs to arrange someone to go to Liangzhou, at least to let her father know about this matter.

Before they knew it, the grandparents and grandchildren had forgotten the time, and only reacted when they heard the first rooster crow outside.

"Grandma, it's getting late, you should rest first..."

At this moment, I happened to see Shaoyao poking her head out from behind the screen, looking around furtively.
