"Yes." Lixia agreed and quickly disappeared beside the carriage.

Uncle Fu heard the sound of wheel turning from afar.

Coming over from a distance.

"Madam, how come you have time to come here today?" asked Uncle Fu.

Liu Yueru's brows were slightly furrowed.

Uncle Fu saw that she was worried, so he took Liu Yueru to the yard and asked the servants to leave.

Liu Yueru then spoke up, "Uncle Fu, how much food do we have now? And how long will the fruits and vegetables here be enough to feed the 100,000 soldiers?"

"Why do you ask these questions, ma'am?"

Uncle Fu had not gone out today and had not seen the notice at all. Listening to Liu Yueru's words, he was a little confused.

"There's going to be a war, and the national treasury might be running low on food. With an army of 100,000, how long will the food we have on hand keep those soldiers fed?" Liu Yueru asked anxiously.

Uncle Fu calculated quickly in his mind.

"If we are not in a hurry, we can build a few more greenhouses and plant some fast-growing vegetables. At present, the food is enough to last for a while."

"These farms in the west of the city are all in the middle area. They have enough advantages to protect this area. You don't have to worry about the food for my lady. Leave it to me."

Liu Yueru felt more at ease when she saw Fu Bo's determined look.

She looked at the area and warned, "Uncle Fu, I just saw the woman from before. She came from nowhere, so you should be careful and take her somewhere else."

"Also, those people will definitely find a way to sneak into Kyoto. The greenhouse food is all in West City. I'm afraid it's not particularly safe. We need to build some in other places as well."

Liu Yueru thought for a moment and said, "Send more people here to patrol the surrounding area. Keep an eye on the food. It is the soldiers' rations. We need to ensure they have enough to eat."

"Yes, I understand." Uncle Fu wrote down Liu Yueru's words one by one.

Lixia also rushed back from outside.

Liu Yueru looked at her and asked, "What happened?"

"Madam, I have been following her just now. I saw her quietly putting something in those wells." Lixia said as she took out the things that the other party had discarded. There was still some powder left in it.

Liu Yueru frowned slightly, "Pick up the things and let the court doctor see what's inside."

He turned to look at Uncle Fu, "Uncle Fu, have someone collect all the water and mark it to see which places have problematic water. Don't use the water until the problem is solved."

"Yes." Uncle Fu agreed.

He didn't trust his servants to do these things, so he went there himself.

"Madam, do you want to continue keeping an eye on that man? Or?" Lixia looked at Liu Yueru with concern and asked.

"Where is she now?" Liu Yueru asked.

"Just now I saw that she had left, so I asked the prince's secret guards to secretly keep an eye on her."

Liu Yueru thought for a long time, and finally said calmly, "Keep an eye on her first. Since she can put those things into the water, she must be able to contact the people outside. We can follow this fish, find out who is behind her, and then make good use of it."

Lixia's eyes lit up and she responded with a smile, "Yes, I understand."

Uncle Fu came back quickly.

He marked the water from the wells in West City and handed it to Liu Yueru.

"Let's go back and ask the court doctor to take a look at the water problem. Remember to tell the people below not to drink the water. We will ask someone to report the news later." After giving instructions, Liu Yueru got up and left.

"Yes." Uncle Fu bowed to Liu Yueru.

Watch her leave.

Uncle Fu also asked his servants to start building the greenhouse.

In addition, after turning over the land, Uncle Fu planted fast-growing vegetables.

Liu Yueru returned home and asked the servants to invite the court doctor to the courtyard.

"Do you think someone put something in the water?" Liu Yueru asked bluntly.

The court doctor brought the water to his nose and sniffed it, his expression suddenly becoming serious.

He took the medicine powder that Liu Yueru took out and examined it carefully.

"What's wrong? What is this?" Liu Yueru urged.

After the court doctor confirmed it, he said with a serious face, "This is poison. Long-term consumption of water containing this poison will cause liver and intestines to break. If the land is irrigated with this water, not only will the crops die, but the soil quality will also change."

"Madam, who put this thing into the water? Why is it so poisonous now?" the court doctor asked angrily.

Liu Yueru looked nervous. "Is there any way to remove the poison in the water?"

"Yes, but we need to find out which water sources in Kyoto have been polluted. The corresponding antidotes are poisonous. If there are no poisoned wells, putting those antidotes in them will harm the people of Kyoto in disguise."

Liu Yueru said to Lixia, "Lixia, go tell your father about this and ask him to send some trusted people to the wells and water sources in Kyoto to fetch the water, mark them separately, and send them here together."

Lixia left as she was told.

Liu Yueru looked up again and saw the Gu Po standing outside the yard, looking towards her yard.

"Grandma, come in quickly. What do you want to see me for?" Liu Yueru stood up and walked to the Gu Po and helped her in.

The witch's eyes swept over the people in her yard.

Liu Yueru understood and asked the servant to leave.

The court doctor also said goodbye.

Liu Yueru then continued to ask, "Grandma, everyone has gone down, please go ahead and talk."

"I heard from those old ladies today that the ghost tribe has joined forces with the surrounding small countries to attack Kyoto?"

Liu Yueru nodded slightly; "Yes, but now everyone is thinking of ways to deal with it. The prince has also contacted the surrounding foreign countries. If we can successfully get their support, it is not impossible to defeat the ghost tribe this time."

"Those small countries are all coerced by the ghost tribe. If we take this opportunity to win them over, can they cut off the accomplices of the ghost tribe?" The witch looked at Liu Yueru with a bright look and asked.

"We have thought about this issue, but it is not very safe. If someone from the ghost tribe sneaks in, it will make the situation in Kyoto even worse."

The Gu Po put down the package on her shoulder and said to Liu Yueru mysteriously, "Grandma has something good, Gu magic. Those ghosts don't know Gu magic. We can use these Gu insects to weaken their fighting power."

Liu Yueru's eyes lit up instantly; "This is a good idea."

"Those ghosts are made up of nomads. Although they are brave and good at fighting, they are no match for a tiny poisonous insect. This is perfect. This way, those innocent people can be spared from physical pain and the war can be resolved quickly."

The witch nodded. "That's why I came to find you. You need to make careful arrangements for this matter."
