Chapter 145 Beauty Stealing Food?(2/2)
Du Liniang is the daughter of the prefect, isn't the prefect the prefect?
The more Fang Ruolan thought about it, the more her heart beat wildly. She often secretly glanced at Su Ze holding a torch in front of her on the way.
It's a pity that Su Ze just held the torch and hurried on without looking back.
The maid also discovered something strange about her young lady. Could it be that her young lady has an affair with this Su Ze?
No, the personal maid grew up with Fang Ruolan and knows that her young lady keeps herself clean.
The three of them had their own thoughts, and finally arrived near the government office. Su Ze said goodbye to Fang Ruolan, and the maid helped Fang Ruolan back to the back house of the government office.
When she got to the boudoir, Fang Ruolan calmed down. She quickly called the maid and asked her to guard what happened tonight.
Only then did Fang Ruolan find the green onion in her hand.
Su Ze held a torch and returned to the county school. It was already late at night, and there were gradually fewer people wandering the streets at night.
Looking at the bright moon in the sky, I have an appointment to visit Xiong Yue tomorrow, so I'd better go back and have a good sleep.
When he returned to school in the county, Su Ze couldn't sleep.
Light the oil lamp and open the book at random, "The Book of Songs" and "Guan Ju".
After reciting it once and closing the book, Su Ze's mind flashed with Fang Ruolan's figure, and then he thought of Lin Mojun in Changning Guards.
Forget it, let's go to sleep.
What happened today diluted Su Ze's homesickness, but instead brought up other thoughts.
However, Su Ze suppressed these thoughts. He was pressed for time and had no time to think about these things.
This grand Mid-Autumn Festival event has become the most lively event in recent years.
Maybe the people had a premonition that the situation in Fujian was getting worse and worse, and there would never be such peaceful days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, so they rushed out to celebrate.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the situation in Fujian deteriorated again.
The Japanese pirates who invaded Jianyang set fire to the city of Jianyang. All the paper, ink and engraving plates in the printing workshop outside the city were ignited, and the flames shot straight into the sky. It took three days and three nights for the flames to be extinguished.
Jianning Mansion was besieged for half a month. The Jianning Prefecture sent people to break out of the siege several times to ask for help, but no guard in Fujian dared to send troops to rescue.
Jianning Prefecture, like Yanping Prefecture, has a capital commander, Jianning Guards, with a staff of 5,000.
However, the Jianning Guards, with a strength of 5,000, were also blocked in Jianning City and did not dare to fight.
The Dusi Yamen of Fuzhou Prefecture is in charge of Fujian's military affairs. The three Fuzhou guards, left, middle and right, under the Dusi Yamen's jurisdiction, have a strength of 15,000. However, no one in the Dusi Yamen knows how many capable soldiers there are among them.
In fact, Fujian is also a strategically important place. In Fujian, there are not only the Land Guards Station under the jurisdiction of Dusi Yamen, but also the Senhu Qianhu Station under the jurisdiction of nine Haidao Yamen (renamed Beiwaba General Si Yamen in the Jiajing Year).
But even so, in the face of the arrogant Japanese pirates under Jianning Mansion, no one in Fujian still dared to fight.
Good fortune never comes alone, but misfortune never comes alone. The war on land here is not going well, and the war at sea is also not going well.
While patrolling the sea, the ships of Zhendongwei and Daijin Qianhusuo encountered Lu Dawang's fleet and were pursued by the Japanese pirate fleet, losing five lucky ships worth 200 pieces.
After this battle, the coastal guards did not dare to go out to sea to defend the sea, and Fuzhou and Quanzhou, the two big seaside cities, were also completely plunged into panic.
But in this panic, because there was no coastal guard to detect smuggling, Yuegang became the most prosperous port in this storm. A large number of ships entered and exited Yuegang. Even the Japanese pirates under King Lu bypassed this most prosperous port.
A bustling smuggling base.
However, the prosperity of Yuegang will not last long. With the arrival of Japanese pirates, various bandits are everywhere, land transportation is almost cut off, and businessmen are increasingly afraid to go out. What is the use of just being safe in Yuegang?
Was robbed.
The people currently entering and exiting Moon Harbor are large-scale merchants who are trying to make a final profit, as well as some foreign merchant ships that specially come to purchase goods at this time.
No one knows how long King Lu’s attack on Fujian will last. If a full-scale war breaks out, trade will definitely be cut off. At that time, you won’t be able to buy anything you want to buy.
After visiting Xiong Yue and delivering medicine, it turned out that Xiong Yue's mother's illness was caused by years of overwork, and the doctor at Shaw's Medical Center also said she needed to rest.
But Xiong Yue's mother was worried about the tea garden at home, so Xiong Yue could only take care of her mother at home and manage the tea garden with his father.
Xiong Yue euphemistically said that he might not go to the county school to study in the future. Everyone recalled that day and night when they talked about their ambitions when they first started studying, and they all sighed with emotion.
The situation was so tense that Hai Rui also stopped classes at the end of August and urged Su Ze to rush back to Changning Guard as soon as possible.
When Su Ze returned to Changning Guard, another bad news came.
The Japanese pirates could not attack Jianning City for a long time, so they scattered and plundered other towns. A group of Japanese pirates also came towards Yanping Prefecture.
