Chapter 209 The Forgotten Person
After dinner, Luo Chuchu felt a little uncomfortable. Before she could say anything to Yan Wenmao, the interrogator came to Qifeng Palace and sent an urgent letter.
Yan Wenmao opened the envelope, read the letter at a glance, and immediately put other emotions in his heart behind him, and said to Luo Chuchu:
"Your Majesty, there has been a change in Jin Xiao Country, and the situation is not optimistic."
Luo Chuchu took the letter.
She had never met Xinyang, the great general of the Luo Kingdom. He had been guarding the frontier for a few years before and after the death of the first emperor, and he never came back even when Luo Chuchu was enthroned.
Because Luo Kingdom is only a medium-sized country, and there are several countries around it that are eyeing it, Jin Xiao Country is the one with the strongest power and the strongest desire to attack.
When the Jin Xiao Kingdom was founded, it was only a small country, but its people were tough, and it gradually eroded the surrounding countries by force and grew into a big country.
Fortunately, to this day, the countries near Jinxiao Kingdom all know what kind of virtue it is, and absolutely do not agree to cooperate with it.
Even if some countries do not want to form an alliance with each other for some reason, when the Jin Xiao country attacks a certain country, other countries will take the initiative to send troops to fight the Jin Xiao country.
Therefore, in the past few decades, Jin Xiao Country has never swallowed any country.
Basically, all countries will send heavy troops to guard the border with the Jin Xiao Country, in case the Jin Xiao Country cannot respond to a sudden attack.
The same is true for Luo Kingdom, because several traversers once achieved the position of queen. Luo Kingdom's economic and cultural facilities are considered to be very advanced, but the area is not too large, so there is still not much chance of winning in the face of Jin Xiaoguo.
The Xinyang family has been a military general for generations. Although their hometown is in the capital, they have settled in the frontier for a long time and rarely return to Beijing unless necessary.
The letter sent this time is related to Jin Xiao Country.
For some reason, Jin Xiaoguo did not show any abnormalities before, and Xinyang was strictly guarded, and no spies sneaked into the border, but inexplicably, a grain transportation line of the National Defense Army was suddenly ambushed.
After cutting off the food supply, the Jin Xiao Kingdom raided the National Defense Army. If Xinyang hadn't led the army well, the Jin Xiao Kingdom might have cut into the border.
The situation was very critical at that time, and the number of reported casualties can be said to be the worst in recent years.
After reading it, Luo Chuchu asked puzzledly, "How did you know the route for transporting grain for no reason? Didn't you say that the route for transporting grain will not remain the same, and is determined according to the eight trigrams array?"
Yan Wenmao said: "That's true. It stands to reason that this should not happen, unless there is a traitor who betrays you."
"Don't sell it sooner or later..." Luo Chuchu murmured to herself, she felt that it was a bit too coincidental, there were too many things happened in Luo Kingdom recently, and almost every one of them might shake the foundation of the country.
She subconsciously felt that the reason behind this might not be that simple.
It's just that Xinyang can only deal with it by himself. After all, it is too far away and the news is delayed. The capital can only provide some material help.
After discussing with Yan Wenmao, Luo Chuchu decided to mobilize 200 million taels of supplies to the border for support.
The time of autumn is always short. It seems that the day before was still a good time when the leaves were golden and the fruits were fragrant. In a blink of an eye, the early winter with the cold wind came.
Zhu Fanghua returned to the palace before winter, and found that there was an extra Song Zhiyue beside Luo Chuchu, who not only took her place, but also had a better relationship with Luo Chuchu.
She didn't mind this very much, she knew that what Wen Renyin was doing had already begun to erode the foundation of the Luo Kingdom, and soon, these things would be meaningless.
Luo Chuchu found out that Zhu Fanghua had been out of the palace to play for a while, and she was not as interested in her schoolwork as before, maybe because she felt that she didn't want to work.
When Zhu Fanghua was away, Luo Chuchu hired a teacher who taught her to play the piano and chess. If Zhu Fanghua felt that she didn't want to work for the time being, let her get used to it first. Taking turns with the teacher to give her lessons would be much less stressful.
Wen Ruyue's attitude was completely opposite to Zhu Fanghua's. She liked to join Luo Chuchu more and more, and sometimes even brought something to curry favor with her.
Although Luo Chuchu basically didn't eat or use the things she brought, she didn't stretch out her hand to hit anyone with a smile on her face, and she didn't directly drive Wen Ruyue away like before, and occasionally gave her a little face.
Luo Xianghua is not very honest, he likes to fiddle with some things, and sometimes, like Luo Chu before, he would knock on the door of the National Teacher's Mansion if he had nothing to do.
With Sikong Jin's promise, Luo Chuchu didn't care much about her behavior, so let's make trouble, it won't turn the world around anyway.
What really needs attention is Luo's state affairs.
Although Luo Chuchu is not very clear about the production methods of some necessary items for traversers, he has a vision beyond the times, and has come up with several ways to improve productivity, which are being implemented.
It can be said that there is no free time in the past few months, and there is something to do every day when you open your eyes. Luo Chuchu and Yan Wenmao are so busy that they forget one person.
Gong Hongfeng is still in prison.
He originally thought that if he gritted his teeth and refused to confess, Luo Chuchu and the others should be very anxious.
In addition, Wen Renyin sent people to visit him from time to time, and he must be trying to save him, so he felt relieved.
But wait and wait, the prison guards at Xiaoyao Terrace couldn't ask Gong Hongfeng's confession, and the higher-ups didn't put any pressure on him, so they simply left him there.
The capital is prosperous and has a large population, especially in recent days there are many crimes. Instead of spending time on a hopeless person, it is better to turn to other people.
Gong Hongfeng's heart gradually began to fluster from being confident at the beginning to being ignored later.
Especially after his youngest child died because he couldn't support his life in prison, Gong Hongfeng couldn't sit still.
He is also old, and it is difficult to reproduce. If all the children die, I am afraid that there will be no future generations.
He has been waiting for Luo Chuchu or Yan Wenmao to send someone to ask, or Wen Renyin to send someone to rescue him, but there is no result.
this day.
Gong Hongfeng sat on the straw and hadn't groomed himself for several months. His hair and beard grew very long, and his clothes were dirty and smelly.
The jailer's voice came over: "Gong Hongfeng, someone is here to bring you food!"
Half a month had passed since the last delivery of food, Gong Hongfeng couldn't wait to stand up, clutching the cell door.
That person was still a "relative" who brought food to him. After handing the food box to Gong Hongfeng, Gong Hongfeng didn't eat it. Instead, he grabbed him and asked impatiently:
"When will the adults come to rescue me?"
The man said perfunctorily: "Recently, there are a lot of things going on outside, and my lord is very busy, so you can just stay in Xiaoyao Terrace. Anyway, your lord spent money, and you were not tortured. Your life is much more comfortable than other prisoners. What's not enough?"
Hearing what he said, Gong Hongfeng forced a smile and said, "Xiaoyao Terrace is not a place to stay for a long time..."
"Okay, I'll leave if there's nothing else to do, there's still something waiting for me to do." The man flicked his sleeves, with a flash of impatience and pity on his face.
