Chapter 447 Trouble
On the way to the palace, Jiang Yue didn't know what kind of mood she was in. She wanted to dig up the Zeng family's ancestral grave.
In the Imperial Study, Zhao Chongxiu was checking the memorials from the border when he heard the eunuch report:
"Your Majesty, the young general has arrived and said he has learned the whereabouts of Princess Xining."
"Announce it quickly!" Zhao Chongxiu has been paying more attention to this matter in recent days.
Jiang Yue entered the palace, met His Majesty, and said directly,
"Your Majesty, Princess Xining is now in the hands of the Fourth Prince of Beiyan. I think the situation is not optimistic."
After hearing this, Zhao Chongxiu's face darkened.
"Even if Zeng Guangren died a thousand times, it would never relieve my hatred!" He only regretted that he let Zeng Guangren die too easily.
He shook his head and continued:
"General Ling has sent a letter."
"He said that Northern Yan has been making moves recently, and he wants you to return to the border and help him raze Northern Yan to the ground."
After hearing this, Jiang Yue waited for His Majesty's next words.
As for Ling Yunxiao, Zhao Chongxiu had already sent people to deliver fuel and supplies. Moreover, his fifth brother was now also at the border of Northern Yan, so he was determined to capture Northern Yan by strategy.
Right now, he has another tricky thing to deal with.
"General Chen also sent a letter, saying that the Great Jin has gathered tens of thousands of troops from the nearby barbarians, and will soon launch a life-and-death battle!"
"But now, if we want to deal with everything with our gunpowder, we still need Xining's help."
Zhao Chongxiu knew how to use people well and also knew how to make the best use of people.
"Little General, listen to my orders!"
Jiang Yue knelt on one knee, already guessing what was going on.
"I order you to set out tomorrow to find Princess Xining, rescue her and bring her back to the Imperial City of Lindu safely!"
"As for the Lindu garrison commander, Mu Heng will take charge for the time being!"
"Yes!" Jiang Yue accepted the order. His Majesty and she had the same idea.
As for Mu Heng, Jiang Yue could trust him completely.
Jiang Yue took his leave and left the imperial study, returning home to prepare to go out and rescue people.
After returning to the General's Mansion, she gathered all the Xuanwu Army and explained that she would set out tomorrow to rescue Princess Xining.
Then, Jiang Yue looked at her two brothers-in-law.
"Mu Heng, Lin Guo, you two stay in the capital. Mu Heng, His Majesty said that you will be responsible for guarding the city temporarily."
"Lin Guo, assist me. You two will complement each other. The most important thing is to train the soldiers!"
"The rest of you, follow me and head to Beiyan to find Princess Xining!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the troops obeyed her orders.
Xue Wen and Wu Fei thought to themselves that it was fortunate that they were not the ones left behind.
Mu Heng and Lin Guo had no complaints about this.
Privately, Jiang Yue asked the two to take better care of the fifth sister and the business in the city.
When she told this to her fifth sister, Jiang Wuni suddenly became depressed, but she still forced a smile on her face.
"There's no peace even during the New Year." If she didn't have business matters to take care of in the capital, she really wanted to go with them.
"Sister, I'll be back soon." Jiang Yue knew that Fifth Sister's health had almost recovered by now. Knowing Fifth Sister, she believed in her talents.
"Sister is in charge of the Second and Third Princes' plan to open a bookstore."
"Don't worry, we still have Sister Feng and Sister Yu." Jiang Wuni didn't expect that after following Xiaoliu to the capital, she would be left here.
Jiang Yue also knew that the two women had their own characteristics.
"Sister, to open a bookstore, you need not only a suitable storefront, but also a large number of books. Funds are certainly not lacking, but my suggestion is to save as much as possible. Movable type printing is a good way to make money."
"Movable type printing?" Jiang Wuni was more than confused.
Jiang Yue briefly explained based on the impression in her mind and continued:
"The so-called movable type printing is to use materials such as metal, wood or clay to make reverse text molds of individual characters..."
"Fifth sister, you can study on your own. This is all I can think of."
“If there is a unified template, books will be easier and save a lot of money.”
"Yeah." Jiang Wuni had already started studying the movable type printing that Jiang Yue mentioned.
Because Jiang Yue was worried about her fifth sister, she once again asked the two Xuanwu soldiers from last time, Lu Fang and Gao Si, to continue following her.
The two of them only wanted to make amends and ensure that the fifth girl would not be hurt in any way.
The next morning, Jiang Yue set out with the remaining Xuanwu Army.
Jiang Wu Ni watched Jiang Yue's departing back, and the feeling of sadness in her heart reappeared.
Behind him, Feng Jinrong and Yu Ziyan also looked into the distance.
Feng Jinrong: "At least let the fifteenth pass." Your Majesty is too unkind.
She was complaining in her heart, but she didn't dare to talk about His Majesty behind his back.
Feng Jinrong sighed inwardly at Jiang Yue's courage.
Yu Ziyan said: "The young general's words did not mean that he was against women joining the army. It's just that she left in a hurry this time. Maybe she forgot about us."
After hearing this, Feng Jinrong also nodded.
"I haven't forgotten." Jiang Wu Ni has been influenced by Jiang Yue since she was young, so of course she knows Xiao Liu's thoughts.
"Xiao Liu said that you are definitely good at business matters. Who says that women must go to the battlefield to prove their abilities?"
When Feng Jinrong and Yu Ziyan heard this, they seemed to agree.
Feng Jinrong looked at Jiang Yue's back again.
"Fifteen years old, a handsome young man. I really want to know what she will look like when she grows up."
Yu Ziyan was as curious as Feng Jinrong, and then she listened to Jiang Wuni:
"My brother has grown up a long time ago."
Xiaoliu has been a very intelligent child since childhood. When he grows up, she is really worried about what his future will be like.
"Fifth Miss, why did the young general leave?" After she finished speaking, Jiang Wuni looked back and found that Yu Feiyan was standing beside her without her knowing.
She didn't want to pay attention and just replied:
"Of course, we will go to war."
As soon as Yu Feiyan arrived, she felt the biting coldness beside her.
Yu Ziyan and Feng Jinrong both moved away from her at the same time.
Yu Feiyan pouted her lips, facing Jiang Wuni, took out an exquisite box, and then put on a flattering smile.
"Fifth Miss, this is a little gift from me. Please accept it on behalf of the young general."
Jiang Wuni didn't answer and stepped back again.
"No merit, no reward. Besides, my brother is gone."
Yu Feiyan looked embarrassed, ashamed and annoyed, and looked at Yu Ziyan again.
"Cousin, my dad misses you. Please, come home with me."
"It's been so long, are you still blaming Daddy?"
"He's doing this for your own good."
Yu Feiyan spoke sincerely. If Yu Ziyan didn't know her well enough, she would have been deceived by her.
"Can you and your father please stop coming to see me?" These days, her third uncle and this cousin have been coming to bother her often.
Yu Ziyan was really annoyed. In the blink of an eye, she saw her annoying third uncle standing at the corner of the street, watching her every move.
This made her scalp tingle.
She glanced apologetically at Jiang Wuni and Feng Jinrong, who looked unhappy, and she really didn't want to affect others because of her own affairs.
So they walked around Yu Feiyan and the three of them prepared to go to the grain shop.
But this time, he was blocked by his uncle who suddenly ran over.
"Yan'er, this time, Third Uncle has found a good marriage for you again..."
"Yu Chang'an!" Yu Ziyan was really annoyed and spoke a little louder. Beside her, Jiang Wuni and Feng Jinrong were also secretly annoyed.
