Chapter 13 Grain Mystery

"It is naturally not easy for them to break through the gate of Suiyang. What we have to do is not just to defend Suiyang. When I come here, I am not guarding the city, but to take Yin Ziqi's head. After all, there can only be one Henan Jiedushi, and now we both hold this official position."

Li Qing said something a bit humorous, but it was this humor that made the blood in Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan's bodies burned up suddenly.

Originally, they wanted to survive and die with Suiyang City, but now, the ten-fold enemy and the ability to splash the sky can make them subconsciously lick their lips just by thinking about it. This is really great!

However, everyone knows how to speak, and what he really wants to practice must be implemented on the edge. Of course, Li Wen called the two of them over and said that it was not just a matter of talking and talking. He had to know some situations.

"How much food and grass are there in our Suiyang City?"

Whether there are too many people or not is one thing. Li Qing knew that the most important thing was food and supplies. As long as you don’t have two meals, no matter how elite a soldier you are, your combat effectiveness will be lost half.

Xu Yuan has always been in charge of food, supplies. When Li Yan asked, Xu Yuan hurriedly replied: "There is still 60,000 stones of food in the city. Logically speaking, it is indeed enough for us to use for more than half a year, but..."

Speaking of this, Xu Yuan frowned and looked at Li Qing. It was obviously a bit difficult to say.

"Our lives are already tied to Suiyang City. In front of me, there are no taboos in words. No matter who is involved, I will forgive you for your sins first!"

Li Yan is a prince and a famous prince. His arrival did make Xu Yuan feel a certain amount of pressure. It was not until he said this that Xu Yuan's heart became a little spacious.

"It was just a few days ago that Prince Li Ju of Guo ordered me to share 50,000 shi of grain to Puyang and Jiyin County. Although I have replied to the letter and refused, I am afraid he will not give up."

The reason why Xu Yuan didn't want to say it was because Li Ju was also a royal family and his fief was not far away. He obviously didn't know what the benefits of the two prefects of Puyang and Jiyin were. However, facing Li Wu, Xu Yuan could not say so clearly. If he said too much, wouldn't it become a shame of the royal family?

"Li Ju? When did Suiyang City become his fiefdom? Write him another letter to tell him that if he really wants food, he would bring the two prefects to Suiyang City by himself and I would deal with it in person!"

Jiyin and Puyang are located in the north of Suiyang County, all within the scope of Henan Road. Although Li Yan, the Henan Jiedushi, was casually enthroned by Li Heng, according to the Tang Dynasty system, these two places are really under the jurisdiction of Li Yan.

"Jingdust, the prefects of these two counties, failed to stop the rebels when they passed through the border. I am afraid that they would be ill-telling. Once the food is in their hands..."

Xu Yuan didn't dare to say anything, but Zhang Xun dared to say something. He had long disliked the two prefects of Jiyin and Puyang. Seeing that Li Yan wanted to see them, he told the truth.

"Let them come and meet me, the new Jiedushi. No matter which side they are close to, I will not let the Tang Dynasty suffer."

After hearing this, Zhang Xun didn't know what Li Yan wanted to express specifically, it was already a fact that he had asked Li Ju and the two prefects to come to Suiyang City.

Zhang Xun looked a little sad at this time. When Xu Yuan discussed this matter with him before, he firmly disagreed with giving the food to Puyang and Jiyin. Without the 50,000 shi of food, Zhang Xun knew what the result they were going to face.

Li Neng obviously didn't want to pause for too long. Then he asked about the situation of the people in the city, the situation of weapons and guarding the city equipment, the situation of the city wall, etc., and then he put the two of them back.

Xu Yuan and Zhang Xun left Li Yan's mansion and strolled on the dark streets of Sui Yang. Zhang Xun sighed: "Although King Jianning is famous, he is both a royal family with King Guo. He doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a disaster when he comes!"

If this were the usual, Zhang Xun said this, Xu Yuan would definitely advise him to calm down, but this time, Xu Yuan just looked at the stars in the sky without responding.

When Li Neng came, although they were also ministers of the Tang Dynasty, they could still fight against the rebels with the same hatred against the enemy on this acre of three-point land. They dared to refuse Li Ju's requisition of food and grass. However, when Li Neng arrived, these powers were obviously all over Li Neng. It was obvious that Li Neng could not see whether he had the same heart as them in one day.

The two of them walked back home in the moonlight, feeling helpless about this turbulent era.

Li Qing returned to her new bedroom. Zhang Mingyue had already packed up a little, but she sat by the window and looked at the moonlight. She saw the situation in the city during the day. She knew very well what her husband was facing.

"Mrs. I'm tired from the journey, why don't I take a break soon?"

At the end of this, Li Qing's lips had already reached Zhang Mingyue's earlobe. This sudden little surprise made Zhang Mingyue's pretty face look colored at that time, but her body did not hide at all, but instead leaned back a lot.

"There are ten times more enemies outside the city at any time. We are newcomers. You can't figure out what you are doing?"

Li Yi understood that if this were the original Li Yi, he might have just gone to study the city guarding.

But I understood the woman's routine. Even if she really wanted to do something in her heart, she couldn't just say it out loud. This thing is something that can only be understood but not expressed. Moreover, during the days in Yong County, Li Qing had been working hard to survive, and he really didn't think about the little things that the couple should do.

It's different now. The two big threats in front of me are over. I finally arrived in Suiyang and breathed the fresh air of being the master of my own. Although the enemy is not far away, it can still enhance feelings. If you want to move your muscles, you still have to move your muscles?

"What do you do? That must be done by this king, and my wife will know that it is not?"

That night, after talking too much, it was all mosaics. While Zhang Mingyue gritted her teeth and refused to let her speak, she felt that Li Qing seemed a little different from before. However, looking at her familiar husband, she immediately gave up her concerns and concentrated on enjoying this feeling she had never felt before.

Indeed, Li Qing completely put down his burden, so he rode his horse so reassuringly. He was originally worried about how Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan could be devoted to him, but on this first day, he had a complete plan.
