The medical concubine is blessed with good fortune and her husband's life is prosperous. The mo

Shen Dongsu played with a dagger and said to the dead eunuch: "Speak carefully, and I, the princess, will untie you."

The eunuch looked arrogant at first. We are the stewards of the East Palace, so we will be afraid of you, a princess who was born as a peasant girl!

Well, the eunuchs in the East Palace are not afraid of Princess Ling, mainly because the prince always belittles Shen Dongsu in the East Palace, which leads the eunuchs and maids to think that Princess Ling is not useful.

This is how the so-called information cocoon room came about, but this dead eunuch came to Mobei from the East Palace after all. He heard a lot and saw a lot along the way.

I also know that Princess Ling is not as useless as the prince said. I also heard that the princess killed wolves, crocodiles, and Tatars along the way.

Now that he was tied up, the opponent had an army. The dagger in the princess's hand looked very skillful. If he lost his life accidentally, he had no place to complain.

Anyone who becomes a eunuch has good eyesight, and so did this dead eunuch. He quickly figured it out, smiled obsequiously, and nodded fiercely, indicating that he would definitely speak well.

Shen Dongsu used a dagger to pick out the rag stuffed in his mouth. When he picked it out, he saw his eyes widening like bells and cold sweat flowing down his temples.

Then he knew that this man looked brave, but in fact he was as timid as a mouse and could not be used in a big way.

"Now, I ask you a question, where do these supplies come from?"

The dead eunuch hurriedly said: "This is a birthday gift from the various prefectures in Shandong to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

He specifically emphasized the word "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince", hoping that Princess Ling would have some scruples and not take it away.

Shen Dongsu raised an eyebrow. She had heard that there was a drought in Shandong this year, and the imperial court gave a lot of money to provide relief.

The Ministry of Revenue used this as a reason to give disaster relief food to Shandong, so the military food given to Youzhou became old rice.

It seems that this disaster is only affecting ordinary people. The nobles and officials are extremely rich, and they can still give so many gifts to the prince!

However, how come the gift from Shandong came to Youzhou?

"This is a gift from the various prefectures in Shandong to the East Palace. Why did you come to Youzhou?"

When the eunuch heard this, he thought it would be a good idea to escape and hurriedly cried out:

"It's not like those untouchables are causing trouble. They're ambushing you on the road and trying to steal His Highness's things."

"Our family couldn't go south at all, so we had to take a detour."

Shen Dongsu asked again: "Even if it's a detour, why do you want to go to the beach?"

The dead eunuch didn't dare to say that it was because he wanted to avoid Youzhou. To be honest, he never thought that Prince Ling and Princess Ling would steal the prince's things.

He was afraid that those barbaric soldiers from Youzhou would rob him! He heard that Youzhou was short of food and military pay, and the border troops were very ferocious. If someone happened to rob some of them, who would he ask to reason with!

He was very aware of his status. In the prince's heart, he was just a pledger, and he would be rewarded if he brought the things back safely.

If you lose even a little bit, your life is not guaranteed! So in order to safely return to Chang'an, he went to great lengths to find such a safe route.

I didn’t expect that the safe route was not safe either. How could I meet Princess Ling in the middle of the night?

"Well, because we have too much cargo and it's difficult to travel by land, our family wants to go by sea."

Upon hearing that he was walking on the sea, Shen Dongsu was surprised and said: "Is there a ship from the East Palace coming to Youzhou?"

The dead eunuch still didn't understand the point of Princess Ling's question, and said with a little pride: "It's the ship left by the Lu family, there will be three ships coming!"

Shen Dongsu was overjoyed and said to Yue Jian:

"You heard it! Send people to prepare. God not only gave us these winter supplies, but also gave us three sea ships!"

Something was wrong with the dead eunuch now, and he hurriedly said: "What does the princess mean by this? This is the stuff of the East Palace!"

Shen Dongsu pointed to the materials and asked: "The things from the East Palace? Have you written the name of the East Palace? Can you call them and see if they answer?"

Dead eunuch:......

No one has ever said that Princess Ling is so unreasonable!

Yue Jian drew her sword: "Princess, kill these people and silence them!"

Shen Dongsu hesitated for a moment. This hesitation frightened them so much that except for the guards and dead eunuchs of the East Palace, the slaves all knelt down and begged for mercy.

He said that he was from Shandong and was given to the prince by the family master, and begged Princess Ling to spare her life.

Shen Dongsu nodded: "In this case, I will spare your lives. It is the time for Youzhou to employ people, so you can go to Youzhou City!"

He raised his head and said, "Kill everyone in the East Palace!"

Now the dead eunuch was completely panicked. Princess Ling not only wanted to cheat, but she also wanted to kill people!

He hurriedly kowtowed to beg for mercy. Seeing him kowtow, the guards also hurriedly kowtowed, expressing their willingness to go to Youzhou City and only begging Princess Ling to spare her life.

Shen Dong said to the dead eunuch in embarrassment: "Others, I, the Princess, can rest assured that they will go to Youzhou, but as for you, I, the Princess, really don't rest assured!"

The dead eunuch hurriedly said: "As long as the princess doesn't kill the old slave, the old slave is willing to work hard to repay the princess!"

Shen Dongsu: ...I believe you are a ghost! The eunuch's mouth is a liar!

But she really didn't want to kill this eunuch. She also wanted to slowly get out the information about the East Palace and Shandong from his mouth.

She played with the dagger again and asked the dead eunuch: "Then the princess will ask you again, where did this batch of supplies come from?"

Others don’t understand what Princess Ling means? As I said just now, this is a gift from the various governments in Shandong to the prince!

But the eunuch, who was very good at observing people's emotions and knew that he would die if he didn't answer well, understood and gritted his teeth and said:

"This is God's gift from heaven after hearing the princess's prayer!"

As soon as these words came out, Yue Jian and others were all amused. This eunuch was quite interesting. As expected, people's reaction speed is very fast when it comes to life and death!

Shen Dongsu asked again: "Then why do you people come to Youzhou?"

The eunuch broke into a cold sweat and gritted his teeth again and said: "Our family heard that Princess Ling treats the people like a son, so she came to Youzhou to seek refuge."

After saying that, he burst into tears.

If you lose these things, you will die if you return to the East Palace.

If you disobey Princess Ling, you will die tonight.

He could only try to save his life against his will.

The more pitifully he cried, the more Shen Dongsu wanted to laugh:

"Well said! This princess has always been kind. Since you have come to Youzhou with so many gifts, I will naturally not treat you badly."

"Mr. Mo, please write a note immediately and submit it to the court, the steward of the East Palace... By the way, what is your name?"

Eunuch: "Uuuuuu, our name is Wu Youren."

"Yes, the name is good. Wu Youren, the steward of the East Palace, knows that the Youzhou border troops are poor and has heard that there is a shortage of supplies for the winter."

"I specially sent a batch of supplies to join you..."

Mo Xiujin suppressed a smile and said:

"As the steward of the East Palace, I think the prince must have approved this matter. I have long heard that the prince always cares about the border troops, so he is naturally willing to give his birthday gift to the Youzhou army."

Shen Dongsu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's right. When I and the prince were in Chang'an, they received the care of His Highness the Crown Prince many times."

"Now that I have arrived in Youzhou, the prince still behaves like an elder brother, caring for the prince and the army of Youzhou. The prince's good deeds are greatly appreciated by the whole army of Youzhou..."

Wu Youren: ...The prince will explode with anger.

You robbed his things and his people, and you still want to slap a big hat on him so that the prince can't tell the story of his suffering.

Our family has heard all kinds of rumors about Princess Ling, but why haven't we heard that Princess Ling is so despicable and cunning?

Because the situation in Youzhou City was unknown, this batch of supplies naturally could not be sent back to Youzhou, so they were taken all the way to the seaside base.

On the way, Wu Youren and the East Palace guards tied them up. Only the slaves were loosened and responsible for escorting the goods.

Yue Jian sent a team to the base first, first to report the matter, and secondly to wait for the Lu family's ship to arrive.

Shen Dongsu specifically explained that even the ship, people and goods were robbed, and the sailors and crew members could not be killed. There was no one in Youzhou who knew how to drive a sea-going ship.

God gave such a great gift, which wiped away Shen Dongsu's previous depressed mood, and he was even grateful for this trip, otherwise the people at the base would not dare to snatch things from the East Palace.

When they notified Youzhou and sent people to snatch it, Wu Youren had already left by boat.

Losing such a batch of goods is not the most important thing. What is important is that Wu Youren must have discovered the base and heard about the situation in Youzhou along the way.

After Chang'an knew so much, her cry for poverty became a lie to the emperor. In order to prevent Youzhou from becoming powerful, the prince naturally wanted to prevent the development of Youzhou in every possible way.

So no matter what the purpose was, she could not let Wu Youren and his group go.

At the same time, she sighed in her heart, as expected, she had been worrying about the cotton clothes for so many days, but it was solved so suddenly and in such a way.

It seems that sometimes when you encounter difficulties, you don’t have to worry. There are always more solutions than difficulties, and you can always find a solution.

As we grow up, this is the first time we have done this robbing thing. Once we do it, we do something big, and we directly rob the crown prince of Daxia!

Shen Dongsu had to praise himself for being so brave!

But then I thought about it, when did she become so bold? In the past, I obviously wanted stability in everything!

The character of Mo Xiao, who was smiling before, has changed. He was as cold as an iceberg when we first met him, but now the iceberg has completely melted and turned into a warm lake.

She used to make quick remarks when things happened (commonly known as being cowardly and stubborn). When did she become bolder?

Yes, he was fattened by Ling Moxiao, because no matter what he did, he fully supported him and never questioned or delved into it.

And he was fully prepared for her failure.

Although she has never failed anything so far, this sense of security is really important.

Think about Ling Moxiao, whose situation is unclear in Youzhou, and then look at the prince who received so many gifts and spent his birthday comfortably in Chang'an.

Shen Dongsu didn't feel that there was anything wrong in robbing him of his things. He had better remember that his things would go around Youzhou City.

Otherwise, if one comes, I will grab one, if two come, I will grab a pair!

Seeing Princess Ling robbing the prince's things so boldly, the guards did not even hesitate at all. They did not even think about sending someone back to Youzhou City to discuss it with Prince Ling or Mr. Pang.

They just grabbed things, kidnapped people, and subdued a dragon. Without Jiasi, the others sighed. As soon as they left the prince, the princess became a completely different person.

Who said our princess is delicate? Let that person come and see where the princess is weak?

Shen Linzhong was the only one in the audience who was worried. His sister just robbed the prince's things, and the prince would definitely take revenge!

He told Mo Xiujin this, but Mo Xiujin sneered:

"Do you think the prince will let Prince Ling and the princess go if you don't snatch his things?"

He patted Shen Linzhong on the shoulder: "You must recognize this fact early. Royal brothers are not like farm families."

"Your second uncle's family is so bad, the most you can do is break up the relationship. Even after the breakup, his family is almost impoverished, and your father will let him work in the workshop."

"The royal family is different. As long as you set foot on that road, it will be life and death. There is no second ending."

"Win or die!"

Shen Linzhong was sweating like rain. It was indeed at this moment that he realized that becoming Princess Ling meant both blessings and dangers.

It was also at this moment that I realized how much pressure was on my sister's shoulders.

He has to work harder!

Just being a salt-making official can only help my sister so much.

He sincerely asked Mo Xiujin: "What can I do? Anything is fine, even if you take my life!"

Mo Xiujin understood and sighed softly: "Our abilities are limited. You see, we are not even qualified to defend Youzhou City."

Not only Shen Linzhong, but also Mo Xiujin often asked himself, what can he do?

He has such a bad life, he will die if he dies.

Only then did Shen Linzhong realize that their trip was not to see the harbor, but because Youzhou City was in trouble, so the prince sent his sister out of the city.

At the same time, Ling Moxiao led a cavalry group and successfully found the Tatar camp site mentioned by the foreign tribes, and successfully attacked it.

The Tatar army was severely damaged, and the Tatars fled in all directions. Ling Moxiao led his troops to pursue the main force, and was bound to defeat the Tatars so much that they did not dare to touch Youzhou City during this long winter.

This attack went extremely smoothly. When Ling Moxiao led his troops back to the city, the entire army was celebrating.

They used to defend the city, but this was the first time they took the initiative to attack. They didn't expect to win so beautifully!

Only Ling Moxiao was worried and felt that something was not right.

He has thoroughly investigated the foreign merchants who brought the letter, and there is indeed no problem. He also left the city in person, and Youzhou City was unscathed. This shows that this is not a plan by the enemy to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

It wasn't until he and Mr. Pang reviewed the situation that they discovered what was specifically wrong, that is, this Tatar army.

Regardless of the weapons or combat methods, it is not the main force of the Tatars, but a small army driven by the main force.

So, where did the leading main force go?

In an instant, Ling Moxiao thought of a possibility, that is, the main force had found something more important than Youzhou City.

"The princess is in danger!"

Mr. Pang thought of this at the same time, and then he realized that Prince Ling's hands were trembling and his face was as white as a nightmare.

Mr. Pang hurriedly comforted him: "My lord, please don't worry. The princess's trip is a temporary arrangement. It is impossible for the Tatars to know. Maybe the main force has not arrived, maybe..."

Ling Moxiao interrupted him and whispered: "Mr. Pang is guarding the city while I go to pick up the princess."

Jiasi came in excitedly to report how many enemies he had killed in this battle. When he saw the expressions on the faces of the prince and Mr. Pang, his smile disappeared and uneasiness swept through his body.

The only thing that can change the prince's expression is the princess.

Did something happen to the princess?

In fact, this time, Ling Moxiao and Mr. Pang guessed wrong. The main force of the Tatars was not chasing Shen Dongsu.

Just like Mr. Pang said, Shen Dongsu left the city temporarily, the news was not leaked, and the Tatars did not know at all.

What did the Tatar general do?

Went to grab something.

As for what they were robbing, it was just a coincidence that they happened to be robbing the prince's supplies.
