Chapter 993: Who Can Withstand This?

“There’s nothing to worry about.” Yu Youyao frowned and suddenly interrupted him. “Back then, the You army paid a painful price to barely hold the defense line of Jinzhou. You weren’t able to face the Di people’s head-on attack on the battlefield and have been brooding about the invasion of the Northern Barbarians back then. From then on, you began to plan for revenge. I think you’ve been planning this battle for a long time and have also prepared for it for many years. You should be confident of winning.”

Back then, no one who had participated in King Li of Zhou’s case had a good ending. As one of the instigators, the Di people naturally couldn’t escape Yin Huaixi’s anger.

Yin Huaixi did not deny it.

Yu Youyao said softly, “I know everything. Before the King of Liang mobilized his troops, you secretly sent people who know how to do business to scatter into Jiangxi, Hubei, Hubei, Anhui, and other important food production places to buy food at high prices and speculate the prices. Before the troops move, the rations go first. I believe you.”

At that time, no one knew that the King of Liang would rebel.

The price of food was a little high because of the drought. However, because most of the refugees had been settled in the Liaodong area, these important food production areas were not affected by the disaster. The price of food was still relatively stable.

The people Yin Huaixi had sent continued to buy the food on the market at a high price.

The price of food rose. Some wealthy merchants were like cats that had smelled fish. They tried their best to buy food and store it before selling it to

Yin Huaixi’s people, hoping to sell it for a high price and obtain a huge profit.

The rich merchants bought food wantonly, so the price of food would definitely continue to increase. At this moment, Yin Huaixi’s people took advantage of the situation and sold the food in their hands to them, slowly bringing the food back to the market.

Meanwhile, he could earn from the price difference of buying food at a low price and selling it at a high price to the wealthy merchants.

On the market, the price of food gradually increased. The rich merchants would take advantage of the fact that the price of food was not bad to transfer the accumulated food in their hands at market price.

At this moment, Yin Huaixi’s people bought 50% of the food on the market at an even lower price.

Yin Huaixi did not want to go too far. He wanted to buy 50% of the food and let those wealthy merchants who wanted to stock up on food and earn a large sum of money lose everything. However, he had finally left a way out for the commoners. At the same time, he had avoided the huge reduction of food in the market, which would cause panic in the local area and the Imperial Court to be alerted.

The people who had done these things disguised themselves as merchants from the North and took the travel passes issued by the You Prefecture. There were almost no obstacles along the way.

The North was hosting a large number of refugees, and there was a lack of food. It made sense for them to buy food wantonly.

No one suspected that this was a group of unscrupulous merchants who had malicious intentions.

Therefore, Yin Huaixi used the same method to obtain a large batch of food.

Most of the five places in the Central Plains were by lakes and rivers. Yin Huaixi had merchant ships in his hands. Once he obtained food, it was very convenient to transport it by water.

During that period of time, almost every day, merchant ships would dock in Liancheng and batches of food would be secretly transported into the military camp.

By the time the same vicious actions of speculating high prices happened in various areas of the Central Plains, causing the food in various places to be greatly reduced, the King of Liang had already rebelled. The Imperial Court would blame this on the King of Liang.

No one knew that Yin Huaixi had done all of this.

Although it was a little unscrupulous, Yu Youyao also knew that even if Yin

Huaixi did not do this, most food would only fall into the hands of the King of Liang and not the commoners. The Liang army’s strength would increase greatly, and the commoners would suffer. Yin Huaixi’s actions were understandable.

As for how Yu Youyao knew?

First, Yin Huaixi’s merchant ships worked with her. She knew a little about the movements of the merchant ships.

Secondly, Yin Huaixi never deliberately hid anything.

Yu Youyao took a deep breath. “After Ye Hanyuan took over the defense of the southeast coast, the southeast coast has almost become your backyard. I don’t know what agreement you have reached with the Lin and Yan families. The Daoist medicinal herbs controlled by the Lin and Yan families have already provided all kinds of Daoist medicinal herbs to the You army several times in the past half a year. Anshan is your main camp. You have a forging facility there. The silk from the spring and autumn seasons this year has already been invested in the production of armor…”

There was also the warhorses that he had exchanged with the Northern Barbarians earlier…

The King of Liang had been plotting a rebellion for many years and was fully prepared.

However, Yin Huaixi occupied all the resources in the north and south. When the King of Liang’s army entered Jiangxi, Hubei, and other places, they would realize that they had almost become an empty shell.

Yin Huaixi said, “In this dynasty, the Northern Barbarians have broken through the defense line of Jinzhou three times. They already have a lot of experience in how to break through the defense of Jinzhou. Although I’m confident that I can defend Jinzhou, the battlefield changes rapidly…”

“I’m not leaving.” Yu Youyao’s expression was firm, revealing a hint of stubbornness. “I’m not your burden. If you send me to Liancheng and I’m not under your watch, will you be at ease?!”

Of course he would be worried! She was not under his watch, so how could he be at ease?!

Yin Huaixi was convinced, but he was still worried about leaving her in Xiangping City.

“This is the best way.” Yu Youyao smiled and looked at him with sparkling eyes. “I’ll accompany you to Jinzhou and put me under your watch. That way, you’ll be relieved.”

Her bright eyes were like sparkling stars. Under such bright eyes, Yin Huaixi’s words of rejection were stuck in his throat, and his heart couldn’t help but soften.

Yu Youyao blinked and used her trump card. She held Yin Huaixi’s hand and shook it. “Bring me along, okay? I’m very obedient. I definitely won’t cause trouble.”

Her coquettish tone was soft and sticky, like the Qingtuan she had eaten on the Dragon Boat Festival. On the outside was the Qingtuan made of mugwort, and the filling of red bean paste inside was soft and sweet.

She usually didn’t like to eat, but she ate a lot for the first time.

Who could withstand this?

“Cough.” Yin Huaixi hurriedly cleared his throat and swallowed the word “okay” that was about to come out of his mouth. He deliberately pulled a long face, wanting to dispel her thoughts of going to the front line. “Nonsense. A

confrontation between two armies is definitely not child’s play. How can I bring you along? Don’t even…” Think about it.

He held back the last words because of the little girl’s suddenly dejected face.

After being scolded, Yu Youyao looked at him pitifully.

She pursed her lips and looked like she was about to cry. “I’m really obedient. I won’t be a burden. Can you bring me to Jinzhou…”

As if to prove that she was really obedient, the little girl sat upright in a chair, her hands in her lap. She looked up at him eagerly, as if even every strand of hair on her body said, “Look, I’m obedient. I’m soft. I’m obedient.”

She was very easy to bully..
