After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive

Chapter 174 Let’s just focus on making money

Xie Xuan'an was very angry.

Although he did not personally experience what happened twenty years ago, he is also a victim!

Especially this time, I came to Yuntai County by accident.

However, it seems that coming to Yuntai County can be considered a blessing in disguise?

Xie Xuanan glanced at Li Qingqing and thought of his mother's previous instructions.

He slowed down his tone, looked at Song Yushi, who was sitting in silence on the chair, and said:

"I lost my composure a little just now. The court forbids discussing the general's affairs. I'm sure you won't impeach me for this, sir?"

Censor Song looked up at Xie Xuan'an, sighed softly, and replied, "Of course not. I am also responsible for what happened back then."

Li Qingqing was confused as she listened.

She saw Xie Xuan'an and Censor Song quarreling, and then saw them disband.

Although I felt a little regretful that I couldn't hear more secrets, since the two of them no longer had a conflict, everyone was naturally happy.

By this time the wine was ready, so she smiled and handed a pottery jar of wine to Censor Song, saying:

"This jar of wine is for you. There's not enough food, so you should drink it sparingly!"

Censor Song nodded and took the pottery jar, seeming a little absent-minded.

Seeing this, Li Qingqing was afraid that he would accidentally break the pottery jar, so she immediately summoned a shadow guard and asked him to take Censor Song back to his own residence.

After Censor Song left, Xie Xuanan looked at Li Qingqing and said:

"You're being too lenient with him!"

Li Qingqing smiled and replied, "With him at the border, the soldiers won't have to worry about someone secretly monitoring their actions and reporting them at will."

Li Qingqing paused, then explained with a smile:

“Although I don’t know what happened twenty years ago, I don’t think Censor Song is someone who would meddle in other people’s business.

"When there was food poisoning in the barracks last time, anyone else would have gone to watch and reported it to the court. But Censor Song chose to turn a blind eye, pretending to be completely unaware."

Upon hearing this, Xie Xuanan said, "Perhaps because of what happened back then, his personality has changed drastically."

Seeing Li Qingqing looking at him, Xie Xuanan thought that she might be a little curious. After all, this matter has become a taboo and is now a thing of the past.

So he slowly began to explain:

"In fact, I know very little about what happened back then. According to my mother, someone in the court submitted a letter from Censor Song, informing the court on the matter. As a result, the general and his entire family were executed for suspected treason, and not even his family name survives."

Upon hearing this, Li Qingqing couldn't help but exclaim, "Tsk! How could this great general's fate be so tragic?"

An image immediately emerged in Li Qingqing's mind of a burly, bearded general being persecuted by treacherous officials.

Seeing Xie Xuan'an looking at her, Li Qingqing immediately asked curiously: "Did the general really commit treason?"

Xie Xuanan shook his head in denial.

"No! The general did not commit treason. The general is the god of war of our Great Abyss Nation. He has been conquering all corners of the world and expanding our territory. That is why our Great Abyss Nation became a powerful nation at that time. However, now the national power has declined again."

Seeing his admiration, Li Qingqing couldn't help but become curious and asked:

"Is your mother familiar with the general?"

"The general had seven trusted aides, and the other six followed him on his campaigns. My mother, however, was adept at business and was primarily responsible for raising funds for them. After the general passed away, they retired from the army, and my mother, also hiding her true identity, married my father as his concubine."

Xie Xuanan explained patiently.

"Since your mother has money, why did she marry your father as a concubine?" Li Qingqing was a little puzzled.

She was good at business and was in charge of raising military funds, so she must have a lot of money. Even if she was marrying according to national policy, she had a choice, right? Why should she be wronged by being a concubine?

Xie Xuan'an looked at Li Qingqing, and after a moment's contemplation, he said, "I'll tell you this quietly. This matter involves a wide range of people and cannot be spread outside."

Xie Xuan'an leaned over to whisper in Li Qingqing's ear.

After a while, Li Qingqing opened her eyes wide in shock.

I never expected that there would be such a talented person in Dayuan Country!

Even such a forbidden spell can appear?

Still dreaming of resurrecting the general?

If she could resurrect the general, she would take his surname!

Seeing Li Qingqing's disbelief, Xie Xuanan chuckled and said:

"Just listen to this, don't take it to heart. Now let's just focus on making money!"

Xie Xuanan pointed at the pottery jar on the table and asked, "How do you plan to sell this wine?"

His face was calm and composed, as if he had never said such shocking words just now.

Li Qingqing also smiled. She liked making money!

Li Qingqing immediately put the general behind her mind.

She thought about it carefully and said:

"You just drank this wine, and you know how strong it is. I plan to sell it to the Northern Territory in exchange for some Northern Territory horses."

Xie Xuan'an looked at Li Qingqing with some resentment. He had only taken half a sip!

However, it is true that this wine is very strong.

The climate in the North is extremely cold, and local residents prefer to drink strong liquor to keep warm. If the wine is sold here, it will surely be very popular.

Xie Xuan'an thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

However, he was very curious about why Li Qingqing wanted to exchange some horses from the Northern Territory?

He was about to ask when the shadow guard came to report that lunch was ready.

Li Qingqing then smiled and said:

"Let's go eat first! Yunsu's cooking skills are almost as good as mine now, which saves me from having to cook."

Yun Su is one of the shadow guards. Li Qingqing often taught Yun Su how to cook. Unexpectedly, she actually trained a dedicated chef.

"Okay." Xie Xuan'an was not polite.

As soon as the two of them sat down, they saw Li Feng coming with a bowl of food.

Li Qingqing looked over and saw that it was the food that the shadow guard had brought to him before. For some reason, he brought it back again?

"You didn't even tell me when the wine was ready!"

Li Feng found an empty chair and sat down, then said with a smile, "How about letting me try this wine?"

Li Qingqing immediately stood up, poured a small glass of wine and handed it to Li Feng, saying with a smile:

"It's a good opportunity for you to try it. Xiao Xie and I plan to sell this wine to the Northern Territory and exchange it for some Northern Territory horses."

"Oh?" Li Feng was a little surprised. "Why did you think of changing to a Northern Territory horse?"

"Although the Northern Territory horses are not as tall as the Wan horses, they have strong load-bearing capacity and good endurance."

Li Qingqing explained with a smile,

"I saw you practicing your formation the other day. The left and right wings were both heavily armored cavalry. If you replaced them all with Northern Territory horses, you would definitely be able to unleash even greater power during an encirclement and charge."

"You can actually see the formation?" Li Feng was a little surprised.

Then I thought that they are indeed sisters, with the same father!

So he smiled and said, "The explosive power of the Northern Territory horses is indeed quite good. If we could have a group of these horses, our chances of victory would be much greater when we go out to fight the enemy in the field!"

Li Feng is now thinking about how to better drive away the people from the Qi'an Kingdom, and it would be best to force them to sign a ceasefire agreement.

This way he could return to Kyoto earlier.

Now, in addition to having his soldiers strengthen the city walls and clear out all kinds of supplies outside the city that could be used by the enemy,

He also had his soldiers practice formations that could be used for both defense and attack, because he didn't want them to always be on the defensive.
