The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 219: 219 press the troops

Chapter 219 Chapter 219. Putting troops on hold

The letter has been sent, but they dont know if they will receive the news. Both mother and daughter of the Feng family are very worried.

Like them, General Xiao Ji, who was guarding the city in Liangzhou in the northwest, was also distressed.

Seeing that the Beidi army had been surrounding Liangzhou City for more than half a month, they still did not attack.

If it were normal, he would have suspected that the enemy wanted to defeat them without a fight, and besieged them until the city was broken.

But today's situation is different. Beidi people are warlike by nature. Such a large group of grassland soldiers gathered here. If they don't attack them, I'm afraid there will be internal conflicts. Besides, they don't have enough food and armaments. When spring comes, the flowers bloom. Sometimes, people may be able to fight, but horses have to thrive, so cutting through the mess quickly should be their strategy.

He couldn't see why they were standing still now.

"He Qiu, did the spies we sent get any news back?"

Wei Zeng, general, what are these Beidi people thinking? Are they deliberately trying to weaken our morale and wait until we are all tired before sending troops south?

The two of them stood on the city wall, staring at the Beidi King's flag in the distance, looking at it and talking at the same time.

"It's hard to say. I always feel that the Beidi people's approach this time is very different from the past. Maybe there is someone behind the scenes. Tell the soldiers guarding the city to divide them into six shifts and alternate rest. If they don't come one day, we will do one. Dont let your guard down.

"yes!"

No one can sleep well with a knife hanging over their head.

However, some people regard the life-threatening knife as a weapon for cutting through thorns and obstacles on the road ahead, and it is very easy to use it.

is talking about the Liang family at this moment.

When the imperial edict of transfer came down, the Liang family felt grateful for the emperor's favor, and at the same time, they were even more determined to follow Duke Wei or the Ninth Prince to the death.

The Liang family father and son went to the Duke Wei's Mansion to express their thanks in the afternoon of the same day. The Duke did not refuse and just talked to Liang Quanbin alone for a long time. After waiting until Liang Pan was a little tired, he saw his father walking out with empty steps.

"Father."

Liang Pan rushed up to meet him, supported his staggering body, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with my father? Why did he end up like this after talking to his grandfather for a while?"

Its okay, my legs are numb after standing for a long time. Lets go back early.

"Yes." Liang Pan supported Liang Quanbin and walked out. He was quite dissatisfied with Wei Guogong for letting his father stand for so long.

He has now gone to the Ministry of Rites to report, and he is indeed a minor official.

Not to mention Zheng Shangshu, even his immediate boss had never met one. He spent all day dealing with the principals and followers. They didn't know much about Liang Pan's identity, so they didn't compliment him.

In addition, it was spring in March soon, and everyone was too busy to touch the ground, but no one came to trouble him.

He helped with a few things, which were quite satisfactory, so he was able to take root in the Ministry of Etiquette.

It's a pity that he didn't care about this in his heart. Sure enough, his father was right. In such a civil service career, I don't know when I will have a chance to climb up. I'm either facing files or ethics all day long. , almost annoying me to death.

On the carriage, Liang Pan wanted to tell his father about the recent situation in the Ministry of Rites, but saw that his eyes were closed tightly and the veins on his forehead were looming. He was obviously thinking about things. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with father? The Wei family What did your grandfather say to you that made you so uneasy?"

Opening his eyes and looking at his son Liang Pan, Liang Quanbin was still digesting what Duke Wei Guo just said. "Since you are going to Jinling City to take office, there are some things you should know." After saying that, he handed over a booklet. Liang Quanbin took it with a smile. He opened it and looked at it, and he became more and more surprised.

It is densely packed with records of the amount of official rations that the two Zhejiang and Thirteen Divisions will pay tribute to the Wei family.

He didn't take a closer look. He just flipped through a few pages and there were already hundreds of thousands of stones. However, considering that the thick book added up, tens of millions of stones were probably too small.

Sweating heavily, he asked Duke Wei, "What does the Duke mean?"

"In our position and in our political affairs, as we are in-laws, we naturally have to help each other. With you looking after Jinling City, I believe that the food and stone tributes in the future will not be worse than those of the previous Governor Cao. What do you think? Right, Master Liang!"

When Wei Guogong said this, he seemed to be talking about an ordinary thing. But Liang Quanbin had no choice but to retreat and agreed.

Dont worry, Lord, as long as Im here, I wont let you lose even one bushel of official grain.

"Well, I feel relieved after Mr. Liang's words. I hope Mr. Liang will pay more attention to this appointment. After all, there are many jealous people, so it's best if nothing goes wrong."

"yes."

Seeing Liang Quanbin look like this saved Duke Wei a lot of trouble with his words, so he made a favor.

I heard from the imperial concubine that she is very fond of Miss Liang in the palace. When the Ninth Prince returns to the court after winning the victory, I will certainly tell His Majesty that he will accept Miss Liang as his concubine and take charge of the backyard!

With such a promise, he almost gave up the position of princess. However, he felt that Liang Quanbin's official position was not enough to help the ninth prince, so he only promised the position of concubine.

A son and a daughter are all held in the hands of the Wei family. They want them to live or die. This seems to be a great honor, but in reality, they really have seven inches of his hand.

Liang Quanbin couldn't help but break into a cold sweat when he thought of this.

"I didn't say anything. I just told my father about some things about Jinling City. Pan'er, you must be careful when doing things in the Ministry of Etiquette. It doesn't matter even if you move slower. Don't be too pushy and shoot the first bird. Our Liang family cant bear it, remember?

Father, dont worry, your son has his own sense of discretion and will not act rashly.

Seeing his quick and affirmative reply, Liang Quanbin felt a little relieved.

With this situation now, it is impossible to get on the Wei family's boat and we can only follow it farther and farther.

As Wei Guogong said, things in this world cannot be achieved without fighting. If you want to be rich and powerful, you will naturally have to take some risks.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think hard.

This position of Director of Water Transport finally fell to him. Now he is only the second grade. In the future, he will be the first grade, the first grade, or even the first grade.

If the Ninth Prince really takes the throne in the end, judging from his relationship with the Wei family and the things he will do for the Wei family in Jinling City this time, he must have a high position and power.

When he thinks about his future, the prospects are limitless, and the Liang family will rise in the court because of this. They will no longer be rounded and flattened in the past. At this moment, he has left all those worries behind, but I dont know that once I leave, there is no time to return.
