The queen is a bit cowardly

Chapter 116

The Xuanniao flag was hung in Fuyang County and its subordinate counties. This was originally the king's flag of the Fu Kingdom. In order to distinguish it from the current Fu King Jiang Chiyuan, Jiang Qingluan embroidered a red sun border on the Xuanniao flag. It means that she returns from the east and rises with the sun.Of course, only Chang Lan knew that this was Jiang Qingluan's careful thought, even if it was Qi, the two of them should be put together.

In order to be closer to the battlefield, Jiang Qingluan left Niandong County and now sits in Fuyang County.She originally didn't want Chang Lan to come with her, but Chang Lan said she didn't want to be separated again. If what happened to Wei Xin last time happened again, where would she be placed? Being taken down by Jiang Fei means that his life and death are uncertain, and he is the eldest daughter of the emperor anyway, at least Fu Ren dare not do anything to him, and with himself by Qingluan's side, there are many people to help.

How could Jiang Qingluan speak more than Chang Lan, so she had no choice but to agree.But following Chang Lan is actually a good thing, at least someone can take care of the county affairs for her, and Qingluan can also focus on the war.

The man of Fu is Shangxuan, so the city of Fu Kingdom is mostly decorated with black. If there is a piece of red, it can be said to be particularly conspicuous.Chang Lan and her red armor are just this conspicuous scenery. Ever since she learned how to ride a horse, Chang Lan mostly travels on horseback, which is very convenient for her who is used to riding a horse.

She stood at the gate of the city with her close-fitting red armor, and the accompanying servants brought some snacks to comfort the soldiers guarding the city. Most of these soldiers were born as slaves at that time, and some were oppressed villagers from surrounding villages. At the time of the incident, he didn't know that this was Empress Daxin, and now that he knew her identity, he couldn't help but respect her.

"How many people have been in and out of the city recently?" Chang Lan asked Feng Jia.

Since Feng Jia followed Youtu, he has been fighting on the front line and made some achievements. Now he has become a centurion and manages the city guard of Fuyang County.

"Not much." Feng Jia replied with cupped hands, because the injury on his left hand hadn't healed yet, he still had some difficulty raising his hand.

He followed up and said: "Follow the princess's order, and all people entering and leaving are strictly registered and verified."

At a critical moment recently, Jiang Qingluan's plan is proceeding quietly. Her words and deeds are organized, and some arrangements are even hidden from Chang Lan. People come in and out.Although Chang Lan didn't know why, she could probably guess that she was on guard against secret agents, so she also asked the city guards to record everyone who came in and out.In fact, all locals have household registration in the county. If a foreigner is doing business or looking for relatives, he can also ask the merchant to purchase, or where his relatives live, and then the village head will naturally verify.So as long as there is strict investigation, there are still traces to follow.

"Then have there been refugees entering the city recently?" Chang Lan continued to ask, the slave's song had been spread all over the country of Fu, and Chang Lan was also wondering if someone would come to seek refuge, but it was not ruled out that the enemy would take advantage of this.

Feng Jiahui thought for a while, and said: "Princess Hui, a dozen or so refugees came from outside the south gate yesterday, because their household registration is not here, and they have no relatives here, so they were not allowed to enter the city, but to show His Highness's kindness, Dabai Mantou is still enough gone."

"How are those people dressed?" Chang Lan asked.

"Refugees are naturally dressed in rags, and their faces are dirty without facial features." Feng Jia replied.

Chang Lan didn't want Xizuo to sneak into the city, nor did he want to miss the opportunity to recruit troops. At that time, he suddenly realized that there were some villages near Fuyang County. Many people in the villages also joined the army in the county, and the villages were quite empty.

"Steamed buns can't be given all the time," Chang Lan teased, "You only have a few big white steamed buns after working hard all day, aren't you?"

Feng Jia smiled honestly. In fact, for him, this big white steamed bun was enough to satisfy people. He was born of a slave, and he was born a slave. He eats the worst food and works the hardest.

"Steamed buns are enough." Feng Jia said, "Giving them some will not get in the way."

Chang Lan could see that the person in front of her was kind-hearted, and explained, "I mean that you can only eat if you work."

Chang Lan made an arrangement: "The village closest to here has no labor force. If they want to, they can go over there to help women and children plant the land, and let the village chief there take care of their food and drink. Money Bengong will just take it."

"Decree!" Feng Jia didn't want the refugees to suffer from the cold outside, he didn't think deeply, he only thought that they were suffering brothers like himself, and Chang Lan's arrangement also made him feel more at ease. There were some rumors that Fu Wang The purpose of recruiting slaves is to make them work hard, but what he has experienced and executed now proves that Chang Lan and Jiang Qingluan are really giving the world's poor a chance.

Chang Lan stayed at the city gate for half a stick of incense and then left. Just like when she was in Baili County, she walked through every yamen in the county mansion once. Now the chief officials in the county mansion have all been replaced by them It is also more convenient for Chang Lan to inquire about county affairs with the people brought in.

Jiang Qingluan seems to be playing a big game of chess. Recently, she has been discussing matters with her staff all night and all night. It is rare for Chang Lan to see her so serious. The two of them usually stay in the same room except sleeping, and they seem to go their separate ways after waking up. Chang Lan also asked about Jiang Qingluan's arrangement, but the other party only said that there was no definite decision yet, so she had to be flexible.But for Chang Lan, Jiang Qingluan also made a request, and Da Xin's support could not be less, but she could not ask too much, so she only asked Chang Lan to borrow a thousand soldiers from the Dragon Tooth Army first, and Chang Lan immediately sent some rabbits back to pass on Believe it.

After searching all the yamen, Chang Lan returned to the mansion, which was replaced by Fuyangzi's mansion. This mansion is more magnificent than Chang's mansion. There are hundreds of slaves in the mansion. Chang Lan also intended to dismiss, but most of the slaves didn't know how to leave. How to make a living in the future, and these slaves still care about their old masters, Chang Lan kept them in the mansion, first to see if they could get some words, and second to prevent them from fleeing.

"Princess, how's your day? You and Your Highness are back early." Seeing Chang Lan's return, the steward of the mansion said with a smile. The steward of Jiang's mansion knows practical things, he was not born as a slave, and he is also smarter.

"Really? Your Highness is back?" Chang Lan didn't expect that Jiang Qingluan would return so early today. In the past, when there was no Xu, he would never see anyone.

"Isn't it? I came back half an hour earlier than you. It looks like I met some happy event today, so I'm very happy." The steward led the way, and casually mentioned the dishes to be served for dinner today.

It's rare for Chang Lan to hear something that made Jiang Qingluan happy recently. Recently, the Shenxian faction sent scouts to scout and harass nearby, and there were always small-scale fights with them. When the best soldiers deal with those scouts, they always beat them to pieces. Of course, many of these good soldiers are injured. Mudan often complains that all the elite soldiers are injured.

"Do you know why you are happy?" Chang Lan asked.

"I don't know. The princess can ask His Highness directly." After saying this, he had already returned to the courtyard of the two, and the person in charge did not move forward.

Chang Lan was admitted to the hospital. Sure enough, before entering the door of the bedroom, she heard the sound of a five-stringed qin coming from inside.

"What are you playing, Your Highness?" Chang Lan pushed the door open and entered.

The sound of the zither stopped abruptly, Jiang Qingluan put the zither down, and said, "It's just some tribal tunes. I came back early today, and you're not at home. I'll entertain myself."

After Chang Lan entered the room, she sat down next to Qingluan. Sure enough, the beauty was in a good mood and became more beautiful. Maybe it was because the charcoal fire in the room was a little hotter, or maybe Jiang Qingluan played a ditty, and her cheek Red, with piercing eyes and radiant spirits, who is obviously a few years older than himself, but with a flying air like a young girl, why doesn't the more he looks at this kind of person, the happier he becomes.

"It seems that His Highness has met some happy event?" Chang Lan asked.

Jiang Qingluan turned sideways, hugged the princess on her lap, wrapped her hands around her waist, and rubbed against Chang Lan's body coquettishly, like a cute kitten.

"Lan'er, guess what?" Jiang Qingluan said.

"How could I guess?" Chang Lan stroked the kitten's hair, "Whether Your Highness won the battle or got some important news, I'm so happy today that I forgot the rules."

Although the two lived in the same room in the past, as long as it was still dark, the two still respected each other as guests. Occasionally there were some small gestures of intimacy, but it was always someone else's mansion, and they always couldn't let go. Today is a good day, Jiang Qingluan is so entangled before the sun goes down own.

"It's a good thing, Lan'er, who do you think I caught?" Jiang Qingluan asked.

"Jiang Fei?" Chang Lan didn't know who the enemy general was, but Jiang Fei was a name he had heard a lot.

"I captured my cousin." Jiang Qingluan smiled and said, "Now Qipeng's younger brother——Jiang Xuanfei."

Chang Lan didn't know this person, but since he was the younger brother of King Fu of Qipeng City, it was of course an important role.

"Oh? How does His Highness plan to deal with it?" Chang Lan still couldn't figure it out, and asked, "How did you catch him?"

Thinking back on what happened today, Jiang Qingluan almost laughed, and said: "Today, Shen County sent scouts to provoke again, this time there were quite a few people, as many as a hundred, and they all said insulting things to me, so I So I sent Bazaar to fight."

"Bazaar might be overkill to deal with them, right?" Chang Lan replied, her idea was exactly the same as Mudan's. The war had not really started yet, so there was no need to send good generals to take risks.

"Lan'er doesn't know. War is a fictional thing. If they come to provoke us and we lose, they will naturally think that we have no one to use. So every time they come to find trouble, they will beat them to pieces, and they will We will guess how strong we are, so naturally we dare not act rashly."

Hearing Qingluan's explanation, even though it was a dangerous move, it made some sense, at least for now the other party did not dare to act rashly.

"Is Jiang Xuanfei captured so smoothly?" Chang Lan asked.

"Jiang Xuanyu is also a character. He fought with Bazaar for more than a dozen rounds, but the hundred soldiers he sat down were captured, and he couldn't make a difference by himself, so he could only be captured without a fight." Jiang Qingluan replied "But you said that Jiang Feiming knew that Jiang Xuan'an was the younger brother of Qi Peng, so why did he send him to do such a dangerous thing?"

At this time, Chang Lan also suddenly realized: "Congratulations, Your Highness, Poshen County is just around the corner."
