In the cubicle, Shen Wan was watching Song Ziling bathe Xiao An.
Hui'er came in with hot water, frowned and said, "Madam, someone is coming from the palace. General Xuan came into the palace. Could it be that something happened?"
Song Ziling paused for a moment and said with some confusion: "Dad is still thinking about his past behind closed doors! Why did the emperor announce his entry into the palace at this time?"
Shen Wan thought for a while and her face became heavy.
"I'm afraid there's going to be a war."
In the past two months, I heard that people from the Northern Territory were harassing the border. Today, the emperor announced this late at night that Song Heng, who was still thinking behind closed doors, entered the palace. There must be a fight in the Northern Territory.
"Mom, you mean the north?"
A few days ago, when my husband was talking about the customs and customs of the Northern Territory, he mentioned that because of the poor geographical environment, the Northern Territory was not suitable for producing crops and lacked resources. Therefore, the Northern Territory repeatedly invaded the Dongchen Kingdom in an attempt to rob the Dongchen Kingdom of its fertile land and resources. Rich products.
The teacher also said that last year’s snowstorm killed countless cattle and sheep in the northern country, resulting in heavy losses and an even greater shortage of domestic supplies and food.
In order to snatch supplies and food, the Northern Territory Kingdom is very likely to invade the northern border where they live next to each other again.
Therefore, when his mother said that she was afraid of a war, the first thing he thought of was the northern border.
"Um."
Shen Wan nodded, feeling a little uneasy.
Everyone doesn't like fighting, and she doesn't like fighting, because fighting means killing people.
Moreover, the emperor announced Song Heng's entry into the palace overnight, which was an obvious signal. He probably wanted him to take command and go on an expedition.
That night, Shen Wan didn't sleep well. She didn't fall asleep until dawn, and she didn't wake up until about three o'clock in the morning.
Dongmei entered the house with water for washing, and Hui'er carried the boy An, who had already woken up, out.
"Where's the general?"
Shen Wan washed her face and asked.
"I heard from the people in front that they went to the camp early this morning."
Dongmei said happily: "The emperor has exempted our general from suspension!"
In her opinion, it was obviously a good thing that the emperor exempted the general from suspension.
Shen Wan frowned. It seemed that her guess was correct. It was a certainty that the emperor would let Song Heng lead the expedition.
After washing up, Shen Wan asked the boy to go to the villa to send a message to Lu Wenqin, asking him not to sell chili sauce and pickles for the time being. He also postponed the existing orders and asked Lu Wenqin to buy more food for storage.
Once this war starts, the price of food will definitely rise.
Their factory provides food for free, and they consume a lot of food, so they naturally need to stock up on food for a rainy day.
However, she also asked Lu Wenqin not to go to a grain store to buy, but to buy a little at home, so as not to cause unnecessary panic.
Lu Wenqin received Shen Wan's message and smelled something, so he immediately sent someone to buy food.
However, he didn't understand why their factory's products were no longer sold?
Song Heng went to the camp to order troops. Originally, the soldiers in the camp were very happy to see him coming, but when they heard that there was going to be a war, their expressions suddenly became solemn.
The three armies have not moved, and the food and grass go first.
In the afternoon of that day, more than 10,000 Song family troops escorted the grain, grass and supplies prepared earlier for a rainy day out of the imperial city.
As a result, the news of the impending war spread throughout the imperial city.
Eight days ago, Northern Territory General Yelu Ye led 200,000 troops to suddenly invade the northern border city.
One hundred thousand troops garrisoned in the north rose up in resistance and lost fifty thousand troops before they could hold the border town.
The people in the city were afraid that the border would be lost, so they fled with their families and headed inland. The northern border was in danger.
The emperor has ordered Song Heng to lead an army of 200,000 troops to go on an expedition. Tomorrow, a swearing-in ceremony will be held at the city tower to bid farewell to the soldiers.
