The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis
Chapter 392 War Declared
In early spring, Chu Hui's marriage to the young master of the Liu family was decided. The Second Lady was very busy preparing many dowry items, and there was a cheerful atmosphere in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
Chu Zhen was also very happy and would have a drink with the Second Lady from time to time.
At the beginning of summer, Princess Pingyang married Luo Su, the youngest son of Marquis Pingxi.
Princess Pingyang was the daughter of the Queen and the younger sister of the Crown Prince. Her wedding was very grand, the princess's mansion was built magnificently, and the ten miles of red makeup was dazzling.
This year, Daqi had good weather and good harvests. When Chu Heyi and Xie Lin left the palace, they saw that the road had been built wide and flat, with merchants coming and going in an endless stream, and the crops in the fields on both sides of the road were lush and green.
In the summer, the rice fields are filled with the croaking of frogs.
The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and almost everyone believed that the autumn harvest would be plentiful this year, and that having enough food would no longer be a luxury.
Chu Ya sent memorials from the northern border many times, all of which talked about the construction progress of Changqing City. The local people's houses no longer leaked, the land cultivation conditions were also very good this year, and the entire Changqing City was thriving.
Whether it is the curved plow launched by Runxue or the four-square planting method first proposed by Xie Lin, they have been promoted to various places in Daqi this year.
Although people are busy, their lives are fulfilled.
All in all, everything is moving in a positive direction.
However, a piece of news from Yizhou broke this prosperous and beautiful scene.
When the news came, Chu Heyi was accompanying Xie Lin in Qianqiu Palace to review memorials. The messenger said, "Shenxiang Winery has opened in Yizhou City and has repeatedly lowered its prices to compete with Zuixian Winery. Now Zuixian Winery's market share is gradually shrinking."
The man also said: "The people from Zuixian Wine Shop repeatedly went to the person in charge of Shenxiang Wine Shop, but Shenxiang Wine Shop beat them up without giving them any explanation and then lowered the price. This has happened several times."
Xie Lin's face turned slightly cold, and Chu Heyi remained silent.
The man continued, "The person in charge of Zuixian Wine Shop found the prefect of Yizhou City and asked him to intervene in this matter, but the prefect Liu Guang said that Yizhou City opened the city gates and welcomed merchants from all directions to do business for the development of Yizhou City. You should solve your business affairs separately. There is no reason to drive away the merchants who come here to do business.
"After Prefect Liu Guang said this, the person in charge of Shenxiang Distillery became even more arrogant and secretly set fire to Zuixian Distillery. In the end, he refused to admit it. Although the people of Zuixian Distillery knew that the arson was done by the people of Shenxiang Distillery, they had no evidence and could only suffer in silence."
After listening to this, Xie Lin waved his hand and let the man go.
Chu Heyi asked him, "What do you think?"
Xie Lin said: "Shenxiang Winery is the property of King Cheng and his wife. After they withdrew from Shengjing City, they moved Shenxiang Winery there. In Yanzhou City and Lancheng, Shenxiang Winery is a very famous winery.
"Now they have opened the Deep Alley Winery in Yizhou City and repeatedly lowered the price of wine to suppress our Zuixian Winery. They have had serious conflicts with Zuixian Winery and even set fire to it, causing the local people to bleed. They have only one purpose -"
Xie Lin looked at Chu Heyi, and the two of them looked at each other. Chu Heyi took over his words and said, "King Cheng and his wife have declared war on us."
Xie Lin nodded slightly.
To outsiders, Yizhou City was just two wineries competing with each other, and Shenxiang Winery just wanted to take over the wine market in Yizhou City.
But in fact, this time King Cheng and his wife did not just want to annex the market, but also wanted to annex Yizhou City.
If they did not take action to suppress it at this time, the conspiracy of King Cheng and his wife would succeed.
Chu Heyi frowned slightly: "There have been unusual movements in Yizhou City for a long time. I'm afraid this is just a small matter... I don't know who to send to suppress it. Since Lord Wen went to Liangzhou, has he sent you any news?"
The news that Wen Tingshen sent was not much, but it was enough to make people angry. Xie Lin informed Chu Heyi of the situation. After hearing it, Chu Heyi's face turned as cold as ice.
That afternoon, Xie Lin summoned more than a dozen ministers to the Mingde Hall and asked them about the competition among the wineries in Yizhou City and asked them who should be sent to suppress it.
Two or three officials said, "This is a commercial competition. Why should our court send people there? There is no need."
Obviously they have not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.
There was no extra expression on Xie Lin's face, it was very cold. After he made the seriousness of the situation known, there was silence in Mingde Hall.
After a long while, someone finally suggested sending someone, and some even suggested sending Luo Cheng.
"General Luo is already in the western border, very close to Yizhou City. If we send him to suppress the rebellion, he will surely accomplish the mission."
But this suggestion was quickly rejected: "If the news of King Cheng and his wife's declaration of war spreads to the Western Rong, and General Luo leads his troops to Yizhou City, won't Qianzhou be lost?"
After much arguing, no one was really suitable, so they decided to look for Chu Zhen, believing that he was still in good shape and could take on this important task.
He even said: "If we send General Wen Ce and General Chu together, there shouldn't be any problem."
"Huihui and the Liu family's wedding will be held on time. There is no need to wait for me to come back." Chu Zhen said to the second wife.
Xie Lin did not send him to Yizhou City, but he volunteered to go there after hearing the discussions outside.
Unfortunately, Chu Hui's wedding is in two months, and he is afraid that he will not be able to attend it in time. Now he is just looking forward to his child's marriage, and he doesn't want it to be delayed because of his trip to Yizhou City.
Although the young master of the Liu family looks weak, he is actually strong inside.
"You didn't come back for Heyi's wedding. We always hoped that you could be at home when Huihui got married, so that it could be at least perfect." The second wife felt a little regretful.
Chu Zhen didn't care: "As a soldier, being able to stay on the battlefield is the perfection of life."
The second wife had no choice but to pack his luggage.
Accompanying Chu Zhen to Yizhou City was Wangshan, who was by Xie Lin's side. Chu Zhen was old, and Wangshan's duty was to protect Chu Zhen's life at all times.
In addition, Xie Lin also promoted two people from the military camp, and this time they followed Chu Zhen to Yizhou City to try and see if they could stand on their own in the future.
On the day when General Chu and Wangshan set out with their men, Chu Heyi planned to leave the palace to see his father off. However, when he was walking down the stairs, he missed a step and sprained his ankle. His bones were even dislocated, and his ankle was so swollen that he could hardly walk.
When she arrived at the city gate in a carriage, Chu Zhen had already left with his men. Chu Heyi stayed where she was, and in a trance she seemed to see the scene of her father standing on horseback waiting for her.
But she missed it.
