Chapter 996 Begging us
While the court was still arguing about what to prepare, the Queen and Princess Ning had already prepared the things to be transported to Yunbei City.
I don’t know how the news was leaked, but the wives and ladies of the back house donated their money one after another, saying they wanted to express their gratitude.
In comparison, those court ministers seemed very incompetent and were severely slapped in the face by a group of women.
Such an inexplicable comparison actually made the court's decision much faster.
No one wants to go home and be slapped in the face by the woman at home.
There is unprecedentedly no one in the capital looking for trouble, but even so, the mobility is not as fast as that of Princess Ning...
The war in Yunbeicheng continued, and Jiang Muyuan and the others gritted their teeth and persisted.
You can continue fighting on the battlefield, but you can't afford food.
The longer it takes, the worse it will be for them.
When Xi Yao saw Zhou Rong again, it was because he was short of food and wanted to discuss with the grain merchants in the city to bring grain back from outside...
"This is because distant water cannot save a nearby fire!" Xi Yao said.
"But there is no other way but to endure it first!"
After leaving the General's Mansion, Zhou Rong has been living in the military camp. He is very busy and has no care. He is haggard and haggard. His body is still full of filth, and he looks very wet.
Xi Yao didn't let him deal with it either, knowing that he was racing against time now.
"It's not like there's nothing to eat!" Xi Yao thought for a moment and said, "You go and do your work. I'll discuss with the Yun family and buy the livestock that I exchanged for salt. At least I can add some meat to the soldiers!"
"
At this time, meat is also very important.
"Okay, if there is any news, please let me know!"
Xi Yao nodded and watched him leave.
Although he felt bad that Zhou Rong could not eat well or sleep well, Xi Yao did not say anything to ask him to stay...
Can't stay!
She didn't show any pretense, but immediately asked someone to invite Yun Rong.
Since Yun Yizhou was not here, he could only talk to Yun Rong directly.
Xi Yao invited the family as the princess of Ning'an.
Yun Rong came quickly and took Yun Xi with him.
"I have met Princess Ning'an!" The father and daughter saluted Xi Yao.
"You're welcome, Mr. Yun, please sit down!"
After they sat down, Xi Yao did not make any convoluted remarks, but said directly: "Master Yun should be very clear about the situation in Yunbeicheng!"
Yun Rong was unsure, but he still nodded slowly.
"Da Gan suffered a loss because he didn't make preparations early and was short of everything. Therefore, food is the most important thing. Although the general has sent people to collect food, it will still take some time. What this princess means... The Yun family can follow the instructions
Take out the livestock that were previously exchanged for salt at the market price, keep only the ones that give birth to babies and produce milk, keep one for breeding, and sell the rest to the military camp. We will definitely not let the Yun family suffer!"
She finished speaking in one breath, and Yunrong was a little hesitant.
"Isn't it enough to leave one for breeding?" he asked a little hesitantly.
Xi Yao smiled and said: "For now, it's enough. Besides, this war will be over. After that, we will naturally have as much as we want... Maybe by then, people will beg us to give us more gifts!"
"Begging us?" Yun Xi couldn't help but exclaimed. Seeing Xi Yao looking at her, she couldn't help but curiously said: "This is impossible, people have always raised prices wantonly based on the abundance of cattle, sheep and horses!"
The Yun family was able to exchange for so many cattle, sheep and horses this time, mainly because they were short of salt and were given such an opportunity.
