Chapter 487 Conspiracy

Chu Lixuan and Jiang Xinyan didn't know anything about Chaotangshang and Zhenbei. They were visiting the potato growing field in the Zhenxi military camp.

"No wonder, your yield is low. There are only five or six in this litter. We have a dozen or so in a litter, and the smallest is the size of an egg."

Jiang Xinyan said very shamelessly, of course she wouldn't tell everyone that she saw vegetable farmers dig potatoes in modern times, and a litter of more than ten is about the same size.

The planting technology there is good, and with sufficient fertilizer, the yield of potatoes can be as high as 8,000 per mu.

However, Chu Lixuan poured spiritual spring water on the potatoes planted in their castle. There are indeed a dozen or so in a nest, but not every nest has ten.

The yield per mu is 3 to 6,000 jin, and the potatoes that are not watered with the spring water average 1,000 jin, so Zhao Chengan and his team are still good at planting.

When Zhao Chengan and his lieutenant were trying to dig potatoes, he heard "Report, urgent report, the Western Chu army is fifty miles outside the city."

"The agreement is to fight tomorrow, but the **** broke the agreement again and is ready to fight immediately." Zhao Chengan gave an order, and the soldiers who were digging potatoes ran away.

Fifty miles away means it will take two hours to get to the city gate, so everyone has time to go back and change their armor. After all, it is inconvenient to dig potatoes and wear armor.

Jiang Xinyan was very interested in following her to the front to see the truth, while Chu Lixuan looked at her excitedly with doting eyes.

The couple slept in the same room at night, Chu Lixuan slept in the front yard and Jiang Xinyan slept in the back yard where the daughters lived.

They came with a baggage, but their armor was placed in the space, so Jiang Xinyan went to Chu Lixuan's room to change the armor together.

This is also because Zhao Chengan trusts them, and he can walk around the barracks at will, but other people don't have this treatment.

Zhao Qingqing was watching flowers in the yard, and saw Chu Lixuan in armor, graceful, mighty, domineering, and a "little soldier" beside him.

Her eyes widened as big as copper bells, didn't she say she was an exile? Why did he even put on the armor?

The most important thing is that the man who put on the armor made her unable to move her eyes: "Chu... Young Master... Is that you?"

Chu Lixuan didn't give him a single look, and walked through the corridor with his little wife without looking sideways.

When Zhao Qingqing chased out from the backyard, she didn't see any corners of her clothes. Could it be because she missed Young Master Chu so much that her eyes were dazzled.

"Xiao Tao, what did you see just now?" Zhao Qingqing asked uncertainly.

"Didn't you run after Young Master Chu and a soldier?" The maid Xiaotao asked strangely.

Zhao Qingqing: "..." It turned out to be true! It's not her dazzling eyes, only her Zhao Qingqing is worthy of such an excellent man.

The woman who followed Young Master Chu was beautiful, but unfortunately she was an exile. Zhao Qingqing felt that although she was the concubine of the general's residence.

However, it is much nobler than an exile!

I must go into Young Master Chu's room tonight and take him down. Last night, Zhao Qingqing was still hesitating, what if Young Master Chu was really an outlaw!

If he is really an outlaw, what is the use of being handsome! This morning she saw how respected his father was.

So, Zhao Qingqing kept an eye on her, and happened to see one of her father's guards, "What are you doing in a hurry?"

When the guard saw the eldest lady asking him, he stopped and answered earnestly: "The Western Chu army has come to attack the city again, and the generals and soldiers are going to the city wall to meet the enemy."

"Then who was the one wearing the armor just now? Why has this lady never seen it before?" Zhao Qingqing asked innocently.

"The eldest lady is asking about the Marquis of Zhennan, the husband of Mrs. Chu who had dinner with you yesterday."

Zhao Qingqing pretended to be surprised and asked, "Marquis of Zhennan? But the woman who ate with us said she was an outlaw."

The personal guard didn't have that much attention, so he thought that the eldest lady said that the Marquis of Zhennan was a convict, and replied, "Hey, he is indeed a convict now."

Zhao Qingqing also wanted to ask, how could the Marquis of Zhennan want to marry a convict, and the guard ran away in a hurry, he couldn't have made the general wait for him!

Zhao Qingqing thought that there were also female prisoners in her father's military camp. They were all the playthings of the soldiers, and some who were particularly good-looking would be taken as concubines by the generals.

It turned out that the woman was beautiful, so Zhennan Hou was willing to take it with him. As a woman, Zhao Qingqing thought Jiang Xinyan was very beautiful.

Since she is Marquis, and she is handsome and handsome, her mother will definitely tell the second sister, after all, the second sister is the mother's biological daughter.

Xiao Tao saw her sullen look: "Miss, what's the matter with you? Where are you feeling?"

Although Zhao Qingqing and Xiao Tao are masters and servants, they have also grown up together since they were young. "You said that I asked my mother to marry me and wanted to marry Zhennan Hou. Will my mother agree?"

"Such a good man, Madam will definitely tell Second Miss." Xiao Tao has known since childhood.

Er Yiniang wanted to train her to be a dowry maid for Zhao Qingqing and serve a man together.

She also wanted her young lady to marry a good husband, so she would be honored as a concubine, not to mention the man she fell in love with at first sight.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Zhao Qingqing had thought of this question for a long time, and now she heard Xiao Tao say the same.

She was a little anxious. If it weren't for the severe locust plague last year, the sisters would have to go back to the Hou residence to get married.

Zhao Qingqing thought, she might as well marry the man she likes directly instead of going back to the Marquis Mansion to be sent by the old lady.

So they conspired with Xiao Tao, and finally agreed that it is the most reliable way to cook cooked rice with raw rice.

Jiang Xinyan didn't know yet that someone was plotting to cook cooked rice with her man, and wanted to be Chu Lixuan's real wife!

At this time, she was excitedly following in Chu Lixuan's footsteps, and after leaving the General's Mansion, she rode to meet Zhao Chengan and boarded the podium together.

Jiang Xinyan asked Chu Lixuan with puzzled eyes, when the enemy came, didn't they want to quickly go out of the city gate to meet the enemy?

Chu Lixuan told Jiang Xinyan in a secret message that when the enemy attacked, the people in the city would not directly open the city gate and go out to fight.

Instead, they stand on the podium of the city tower to negotiate with the other party. If the other party wants to negotiate with them or fight at close range, they will stop twenty miles away from the city gate, shouting or cursing.

When Jiang Xinyan climbed the tower, she was still shocked when she saw the ant-like crowd on the opposite side.

She has been to the Zhenbei military camp before, and she has also been to the Beiyue military camp to grab horses, although she feels that there are many people in the military camp.

But I never imagined that there would be so many. Just imagine that if there were 10,000 people standing on the road, it would be almost impossible to see the edge at a glance.

This Western Chu army dispatched 500,000 horses at a time to the city gate, and if nothing else, it was just an endless sea of people rolling.
