Chapter 282 Sun Zili's Dream
"The valley is not affected by all kinds of influences. Maybe it is a paradise, and the crops in it grow all year round."
Mr. Zhang is no longer surprised, because Xiao Xuan can always bring out good things for them.
"Yes, we can just eat what we have."
Xiao Xianxian also decided not to tangle anymore. This is a good thing, not a bad thing to be vigilant about.
Sun Zili watched helplessly as the empty room in his city lord's mansion was filled with supplies, and couldn't help but feel that this was an unreal dream.
And that night, both husband and wife were awakened by nightmares at the same time.
Sun Zili hugged Xiao Xianxian tightly. He dreamed that Xiao Xianxian, who was still pregnant, died tragically in front of him, but he was trampled by a group of people and could not do anything. In the end, the group of people found nothing. The son was also killed mercilessly.
"How come there is such a dream?"
Xiao Xianxian felt that the dream was very real, and the city lord's mansion in the dream was extremely deserted. Only then did she think that if Xiao Xuan hadn't come here and recruited so many mansion soldiers for them, wouldn't their city master mansion be exactly the same as that dream? !
"I also find it strange, I even remember the appearance of those few people..."
Sun Zili said with lingering fears. The rumors in the city, the city lord's mansion with only a few servants, the pregnant Xiao Xianxian, and the hungry bandits...
Such a logical and clear dream, Sun Zili almost thought it was a real occurrence.
"Me too... remember."
Xiao Xianxian's face was a little pale, she also remembered the appearance of those people, and even the words she said still echoed in her mind.
"The ninth brother is right. Our Shangyun City is not safe enough. You and I are more likely to be targeted by others. I understand it now."
Sun Zili seemed to suddenly wake up. He didn't pay much attention to the number of troops before. The scale of the soldiers was close to 2,000. Even Xiao Xuan asked the soldiers to patrol outside and inside the mansion alternately during the day and night. He was protecting the supplies, and now he suddenly realized that Xiao Xuan was actually protecting them.
Just because Xiao Xuan doesn't seem to be that persistent about supplies, even the business houses full of supplies are left unattended.
If something really happened to his wife and children, he would be to blame for his death.
So on the second day, the notice of City Lord Sun vigorously recruiting the city guards was posted all over the streets and alleys. The city guards only protected the inside and outside of Shangyun City. Just after joining, the line of three meals a day was available. many people.
To protect Shangyun City is to protect oneself, which is not a loss at all.
"Is there really such a good thing?"
"The city owner is worried that the Beirou barbarians will come to attack the city. I heard that Anmu City has been occupied."
"A man should be loyal to the country, and I want to participate."
"The Lord of the City is well-intentioned!"
"It used to be Anmu City, but now it's Shangyun City. If the barbarians dare to come, I'll kill them all!"
The people who came from Anmucheng went without hesitation without reading the notice. Regarding the former Anmucheng guards, Sun Zili let them pass and took them to the training ground.
"Although I don't have anything in Shangyun City, the land is huge. This site is specially provided for the city guards. You can use it as you like."
In a wide field on the outskirts of the city, Sun Zili told Liang Sheng and others that he himself would also participate in the training content set by Xiao Xuan every day. Xiao Xianxian has moved to live with the Yin family, so he can rest assured.
"City Lord Sun has a heart."
Liang Sheng originally entered the city lord's mansion as a mansion soldier, and he has become familiar with Sun Zili these days, but when they were in full swing, some people in the city couldn't sit still.
"This Sun Zili is going to rebel!"
Wang Yixiu walked back and forth a few times in the room with his hands behind his back. How could he be so bold when recruiting troops with such a big fanfare?
"Don't you understand, my lord? Although this recruitment is under the banner of Sun Zili, it must be King Xuan's idea. It is clearly that King Xuan wants to rebel."
Deputy Zhang said.
"I don't think the two adults need to worry."
An elegant man dressed in an official office said with a smile.
"Master Gu, what is your opinion?"
Zhang Deputy Shi asked, Gu Yuankai is the military governor of Shangyun City, and he was originally trusted by Sun Zili, but recently, for some unknown reason, Sun Zili no longer summoned him at all, but instead reused the somewhat mediocre Huang E.
"You don't really think you can succeed in rebelling in a place like this?"
Gu Yuankai said, not to mention that this place is far from the capital, the mountains and rivers are far away, and it is difficult to pass the levels on the road.
Wang Yixiu also calmed down. As Gu Yuankai said, it is almost impossible to raise troops here, but according to the emperor's temperament, if he knew about this...
"It is necessary to inform the emperor, you and I just need to wait."
Gu Yuankai said again.
"I really don't know why the emperor wants to let such tigers and wolves go unpunished."
Wang Yixiu had nothing to do with King Xuan in Beijing. It would not be an exaggeration to say that King Xuan was under one person and above ten thousand people. Now that he has been stripped of the title of Prince, he can still thrive in such a place. He really wanted to know what power was behind Xiao Xuan.
"I wonder if you have heard that Xiao Xuan also intends to send supplies to other areas in the name of Shang Yuncheng?"
Gu Yuankai got up and looked out the window and looked at Shangyun City, which had changed dramatically. Now Shangyun City is not as lifeless as it was a month ago, and the people even gathered together in groups of three or five to chat.
"What?! Who are you listening to?"
Deputy Zhang was also surprised that they had never heard of it.
"I just heard some gossip, I don't know if it's true or not."
Gu Yuankai replied that he was not interested in anything, only so many food supplies, but it was a pity that Sun Zili had only given him a few tasks that were neither light nor heavy.
"The letter sent to the capital half a month ago should have arrived. It depends on the attitude of the emperor. We can only wait for now."
Wang Yixiu finished speaking, spread out another piece of paper and started writing a letter.
Regarding the matter of sending supplies out of the city, Yin Miao also knew about Xiao Xuan's plan early in the morning, and she had no objection at all, especially after seeing the mountains of potatoes in the space.
"The automatic potato digger can dig continuously for 8 hours a day. I think some of the potatoes piled up here want to sprout."
Yin Miao felt it was a waste, but it would be even more wasteful if she didn’t dig.
"No problem, I'll send it out tonight."
Xiao Xuan said that he collected a lot of jade from the surrounding small counties, but in the name of exchanging materials.
Now, it's time to redeem the promise.
"I'll let Ah Cheng load the car."
Yin Miao said excitedly after hearing that, she could finally remove the potato mountain and make some space.
…
In the night, on the road outside Deyang County, Li Tianyang, who had rarely received the mission, was sitting in front of the carriage humming a little tune. A gust of wind blew, and black objects flew up in the air.
"What is that?" Li Tianyang asked Su Yuan who was also driving beside him in confusion.
