Mind Reading: The villain wins after hearing the princess's inner voice

Lin Yu was sitting in a superior guest room, staring fiercely at the person who was bowing to him.

"What did you say? The left prime minister Kutu was attacked in the Great Zhou territory and was seriously injured?"

Lin Yu stood up suddenly, walked to the big man who was saluting, and said with a look of surprise, "Now, the Junshan King and Zuo Xiang who cooperated with us are dead, and we need to find a new partner. Originally, when we ambushed Tao Zipeng's two cousins ​​in Yingzhou last time, I deliberately saved him. It was a good move. Who would have thought that Tao Zipeng's underage sister would expose it at a glance, causing me to be suspected."

Princess Anle, who was personally conferred the title by Emperor Jianchang, is not very old, but her insight is very strong and should not be underestimated!

It is no longer possible to use the name and power of the General's Mansion to do things in the capital of the Great Zhou.

It went bankrupt before it even started.

She must find a new partner as soon as possible to help the Northern Barbarians survive the food crisis on the grassland.

June and July every year are the seasons when there is a lot of rain, the grasslands are lush, and the cattle and sheep are fat and strong. However, the northern barbarians are now experiencing an unprecedented crisis.

After entering the summer this year, the entire Northern Barbarians experienced little rain and drought, and a large amount of grassland grass production decreased. Herds of cattle and sheep starved to death, and the remaining ones were infected with the plague.

It was already halfway through the year and they had nothing to eat.

If the Northern Barbarians want to buy a lot of food and refined iron for making weapons from the Great Zhou, accumulate strength, and wait for the opportunity to capture the rich Great Zhou, they must cooperate with the powerful nobles in the Great Zhou to help them.

"Get up, sit down and talk. You have lived in the Great Zhou for many years. Tell me in detail about the situation in the capital of the Great Zhou so that I can know where to start."

Lin Yu sat down again. After hearing the order, the big man, who was dressed entirely like a Great Zhou man, stood up and sat down.

He carefully told his master what he knew.

After listening, Lin Yu was very dissatisfied.

But she also knew that as a member of her clan, she was just a businessman in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so how could she get to know someone more powerful?

When she found that there were no available resources, she asked unwillingly.

"Then tell me about the princes and princesses of the Great Zhou Emperor."

In her opinion, only by getting to know these people can she help the Northern Barbarians.

The man thought for a moment and said to her, "All the sons of His Majesty the Great Zhou are useless. Only one of them, the Crown Prince Yong, is quite powerful. He has more power than the princes. If we can get his help, perhaps things will be much better."

Lin Yu's charming eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "How much power does he have?"

So the man told her what Xiao Lichen had done.

After listening to it, Lin Yu was very tempted, but when she thought about Xiao Lichen's methods of dealing with people, she hesitated.

"This man is too dangerous. It would be better for us to find a prince who is easier to control and use."

The two men chose and selected among the princes of Emperor Jianchang, and they decided to get close to the eighth prince Xiao Chengyan.

The reason why he was chosen was also the result of Lin Yu's careful consideration.

The eldest prince has a shrewd eldest prince consort and a powerful family by his side, and the other party will not cooperate with her.

The remaining princes were either missing, imprisoned for committing crimes, demoted to commoners, or were still underage.

There is only one eighth prince, His Royal Highness Prince Xin, who has no background among these princes, but is still alive and well.

It can be seen that he is a capable person, but he seems to have no presence in Beijing, which shows that his strength is limited, and he is a very good partner.

After Lin Yu thought this through, he decided to take the opportunity to get close to Prince Xin Xiao Chengyan.

After seeing the big man off, she sighed.

It's a pity for Tao Zipeng, this chess piece. Originally, with his background and influence in the capital of the Great Zhou, as long as she works secretly under his name, she can achieve twice the result with half the effort and help the Northern Barbarians.

After successfully making Tao Zipeng have different feelings for her, she felt confident that this trip to the Great Zhou would successfully complete the task assigned by her father.

It was her bad luck that she met Tao Zipeng's sharp-eyed sister. After the confrontation, she realized that the other party was very powerful and the Tao family was not someone she could use.

When she was in Beiman, she often heard about how powerful Tao Zhihong of the Great Zhou was. She thought the rumors were too exaggerated.

After meeting Princess Anle of the Tao family, she believed it.

The Tao family is not easy to mess with. She must abandon the image of a savior she has created and stay away from Tao Zipeng.

Next, as long as she could find a way to get close to the Eighth Prince of the Great Zhou, she would be sure to reach a cooperation with him.

Thinking of this, Lin Yu went downstairs, temporarily left the inn, and went to a nearby clothing shop to pick out beautiful clothes.

The wife of the newly appointed Minister of Rites brought her personal nanny to personally select clothes for the children at home. She met Lin Yu in a clothing shop.

The two people had a very pleasant conversation and when they parted, they had already become familiar with each other.

This matter soon reached Xiao Lichen.

"You should secretly select these two people and report any unusual movements to us immediately."

After his men left, Xiao Lichen's eyes flashed with brilliance.

He wanted to see how this Northern Barbarian Princess would stir up trouble right under his nose.

Tao Yuwei, who was lying at home, was very bored at the moment.

She simply sent her consciousness into the space, paid silver twice, and started the lottery.

This time, she actually pulled out a bunch of fresh sweet potato sprouts, which made her laugh out loud in surprise.

"Yunxiao Baishuang, let's go to mother's farm this afternoon and plant these sweet potato seedlings."

Tao Yuwei was very excited at the thought of eating delicious roasted sweet potatoes in winter.

She first went to find Mrs. Wu and informed her mother that she wanted to occupy some land on the farm to grow crops.

Mrs. Wu said nonchalantly that she could plant it as she pleased.

It is much better for my daughter to mess around on the farm than to do all the trouble-making things in the capital.

When she arrived at the farm, she showed the bundle of things to the old man who was in charge of the farm and told him the benefits of sweet potatoes. The old man, who had been growing crops all his life, ignored the scorching sun and happily went to the empty field to plant the sweet potato seedlings.

If these sweet potatoes are really as Princess Anle said, and can produce high yields and fill stomachs, it would be a great thing for the Great Zhou.

After planting this bundle of sweet potato seedlings, the area is less than one acre. The veteran farmer said with regret, "There are too few sweet potato seedlings. If there were more, we could plant more than ten acres first."

Tao Yuwei said, "Don't worry, these sweet potato seedlings will cover the ground when they grow up. Then we can cut off the branches and continue planting."

When the farmers on the farm heard the good news, they became even more concerned.

When Tao Yuwei returned to the capital, it was already dark. But when she passed the city gate, she heard bad news.
