Zhen Mi now spends most of her time in the library.

A lot of new books have been added here.

It's just that today, there is another person in the library, and Xu Shu is by Zhen Mi's side.

Zhen Tu came to Jicheng in person, ready to take Zhen Mi back to Zhongshan. The person is already in Xu Shu's mansion.

One is under pressure from Yuan Shao, and the other is that Li Dao and Guo Yan have turned against him, which makes Zhen Tu feel more and more hopeful.

After all, Zhen Mi is thirteen years old, and he has been staying outside, which is not good for Zhen Mi's reputation.

Before, Zhen Rong could be used as a reason to be pregnant, but now Zhen Rong has given birth.

Zhen Mi has no other reason to continue to stay in Youzhou.

Although when he was in Youzhou, Zhen Mi only lived a life of two points and one line, and basically never went to other places.

But she went to the state governor's office. If it spreads widely, it will have a great impact on Zhen Mi.

It's just that Zhen Mi herself is not willing to leave.

She prefers to stay in Youzhou rather than Zhongshan.

It's just that Zhen Tu has already come in person. It is impossible for Zhen Mi to continue to stay in Youzhou, she must go back with Zhen Tu.

Close the book and return to the shelf.

Zhen Mi was very nostalgic for this, and a pair of jade hands gently swept through the rows of bookshelves.

She really enjoyed being here and was really reluctant to leave.

In addition to the rows of books, there is also the man who comes once in a while.

If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight?

The last time Zhao Hui went out, this sentence was haunted in Zhen Mi's heart every day.

She originally thought that this sentence was seen by Zhao Hui from other places.

But rummaging through the poetry collections that could be found, Zhen Mi didn't see it.

Because of this one, Zhao Hui only remembered these two sentences, which were not published in the poetry collection at the beginning.

Zhen Mi naturally couldn't find a source.

She was curious, but she didn't ask Zhao Hui again.

"Let's go."

Zhen Tu frowned, feeling that it was not a good decision to let Zhen Mi come to Youzhou last time.

Zhen Rong left the State Pastoral Mansion, returned to Xu Shu's home and said goodbye to his sister Zhen Rong, and then left with Zhen Tu.

Zhen Tu did not go to see Zhao Hui. His life in Jizhou is not easy now.

Yuan Shao's suspicion of him became heavier and heavier.

This time it was because he came to pick up Zhen Mi, otherwise Zhen Tu would not have left Jizhou.

Yuan Shao became more and more greedy, and asked the Zhen family for money more and more times.

In order to fill Yuan Shao's mouth, Zhen Tu even sold the Zhen family's properties in some places.

All the money sold was used by Yuan Shao to recruit troops and support the army.

Yuan Shao now has an army of 200,000 in his hands, of which at least 50,000 are raised by the Zhen family.

Losing the Zhen family, Yuan Shao's strength will drop by at least two percent.

Zhao Hui didn't deliberately make things difficult for Zhen Tu, Zhen Tu didn't see him, and Zhao Hui didn't care.

Although the benefits he received from the Zhen family were not as great as Yuan Shao's, they were also greater than Zhao Hui's own efforts.

For the Zhen family, Zhao Hui has nothing to disagree with.

If you can get something from the Zhen family, Zhao Hui will earn it.

The things that the Zhen family can give Yuan Shao are relatively few.

For the Zhen family, Zhao Hui never insisted on it.

Qingzhou!

Zhang Wang and Liao Hua are still entangled with Zhang He.

Although it is said that when facing Zhang He, the two lost more than they won.

But the two of them have made some progress in the command of the battle, as well as the strategic layout, and they are not the generals who can only charge into battle at the beginning.

The two guarded Donglai County, and Zhang He couldn't break it.

It also occupied Beihai County for a time.

just failed to defend it, and was quickly snatched back by Zhang He.

It's just that as time drags on, there is less and less grain and grass in Donglai County, and it is difficult to persevere.

But even so, the two still did not ask Zhao Hui for help. Whether it is troops, food and grass, after the two came to Qingzhou, they did not stretch out their hands to ask for it.

And Zhao Hui didn't ask them too much.

Just look at the information they sent once every five or six days.

It's best to be able to win Qingzhou, if you can't take it, just disgust Yuan Shao.

Zhao Hui will not invest too many resources in Qingzhou for the time being.

After all, it is separated by a Jizhou, which is Yuan Shao's base camp.

Even if there were warships, it was possible to pass by sea.

But it's still too unstable.

Now that the number of warships is limited, it is difficult for Zhao Hui to invest troops and grain and grass in Qingzhou on a large scale.

Now Zhang Wangliao Hua with tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops has successfully dragged Zhang He's 30,000 army.

If the nail of Donglai County can be buried in Yuan Shao's rear all the time.

It is still more advantageous for Zhao Hui.

But even if it's gone, Zhao Hui is not a pity.

Anyway, it's the place for Zhang Wangliao to exercise.

As long as the two of them make progress, it's fine.

There is Tai Shici in the state, and now it is very stable, and the number of bandits and bandits is plummeting.

The people who were hiding in the mountains also gradually came out.

At the beginning, because of the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, as well as the harassment and persecution of the bandits and Huns, these people had no choice but to abandon their original homes and flee into the mountains.

Now they have come out of the new way, and the population of the state has increased to a certain extent.

It used to be just over a million, but now it's almost two million.

It's just that many people have lost their household registration and have not been counted.

Tai Shi Ci has already begun to arrange manpower and go to various places to recount.

But demographics are not an easy thing to do.

Guo Jia is responsible for counting the population in Youzhou, and it has not completely ended yet, and there are still some places that have not yet been counted.

When a city and a village come down, it will take more than half a year for a county.

And because of the problem of manpower, it takes almost a year for a county to be counted in the end.

Even if Guo Jia sent a lot of manpower to completely count the registered population of Youzhou, it would take more than a year and a half.

Because too many people in the state have lost their household registration, it will take more than two years to complete the statistics.

This is a job that requires meticulousness and time.

In addition to counting household registration, Tai Shici is also leading the people who came out of the mountains and forests to reclaim wasteland.

At the same time, the cattle were rented to these people. so that they can cultivate more fields.

Youzhou and other things are not as good as the Central Plains.

But cattle, horses and sheep have never been less, anyway, if they are not enough, just go to the grassland to rob them.

Now this grassland in the north is Zhao Hui's back garden.

Zhao Hui had already begun to make pre-war preparations.

Grain and grass are already being transported to the front.

In the past few years, Zhao Hui has been buying grain and grass.

first through Zhen Tu, and then Yuan Shu.

Originally, relatively speaking, Youzhou, which was relatively poor, is now not short of grain and grass at all.

Now the armies of Youzhou and the state are combined, and Zhao Hui also has 200,000 troops in his hands.

And the grain and grass he is hoarding now is enough for the 200,000 army for two years.

In the past two years, Zhao Hui can also receive a lot of taxes.

Even if there is a big war that lasts for three years, Zhao Hui will not be short of food.
