Chapter 41 Uninvited Guests

　　After hearing Shen Moyuan's words, Chen Zhi was speechless.

　　What happened to the prince? He used to be very low-key.

　　Nowadays, not only do people care about their manners and appearance, they also like to show off.

　　Seeing Chen Zhi not moving, Shen Moyuan urged, "Why are you standing there? Let's go."

　　"Coming, coming." Chen Zhi trotted to catch up.

　　The tens of thousands of soldiers of the Yuanming Army were truly enlightened today.

　　Why is the prince wearing a watermelon-like thing on his head?

　　Also, what is he wearing outside the brocade robe?

　　However, seeing the uncontrollable smile on Shen Moyuan's face, everyone knew that he must be extremely satisfied with his outfit.

　　After a while, Yan Wen reported, "Your Majesty, Yuwen Ze is asking for an audience at the foot of the city."

　　Shen Moyuan put away the smile on his face and said slowly, "Go and bring Yuwen Chengtai here."

　　There was no doubt that Yuwen Ze came to ask for his younger brother.

　　Standing on the city wall, I saw that the enemy was standing an arrow's distance away, with two soldiers standing beside him responsible for shouting.

　　Yuwen Ze said a few words to the soldier, and the soldier shouted at the top of his voice: I have heard of the name of the King of Liangzhou for a long time, and after seeing him today, I find that he is indeed outstanding.

　　In fact, what Yuwen Ze thought in his heart was the same as that of the soldiers of Yuanming Army, wearing strange and bizarre clothes.

　　Shen Moyuan didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "If you want your brother's life, write a letter of surrender and go back to Nanchu."

　　Yuwen Ze originally thought that Shen Moyuan had become skinny due to hunger, but now it seems that not only has he not lost weight, but there is even a chubby messenger standing next to him. It seems that the information given by Prince Daqian is not accurate.

　　In order to test him, he continued: This general is willing to exchange 50,000 kilograms of grain for my brother, please grant my wish, Your Majesty.

　　If the other party is short of food, 50,000 kilograms of rice will definitely be enough to attract them.

　　Shen Moyuan smiled.

　　Two months ago, 50,000 kilograms of rice meant the lives of 50,000 soldiers and civilians in Liangzhou City.

　　Now, Miss Ranran has sent him one million kilograms of rice, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes are growing well, so the problem of hunger will never occur in Liangzhou City again.

　　He said to Yuwen Chengtai beside him, "It seems that your elder brother doesn't care whether you live or die."

　　"Just 50,000 kilograms of rice, and you want me to release him."

　　Yuwen Chengtai had been hungry for a day and no longer had the arrogance he had yesterday.

　　He stared at Shen Moyuan with his red eyes and said, "Kill me if you want to, and stop talking nonsense."

　　As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Wen kicked him in the heart, "You bastard, you are still so arrogant even though you are a prisoner."

　　The prince is most concerned about Concubine Xiao. Yuwen Chengtai actually dared to curse her. He really doesn't know how to live or die.

　　Sure enough, Shen Moyuan's face showed a hint of sinisterness.

　　The playful smile that was on his face just now disappeared completely, "Hang him on the city wall and let Yuwen Ze watch his brother die."

　　…

　　Xiaohe Village.

　　Gu Ranran, who was taking a lunch break, was awakened by the vibration of her cell phone.

　　She rubbed her sleepy eyes and glanced at the screen. It was the smart security software reminding her of a strange visitor.

　　The supplies delivered to Liangzhou City today have already been delivered, so logically there shouldn't be any strangers coming.

　　She opened the software and saw several cars parked at the door through the surveillance screen. Two middle-aged men, a woman and a young man in his twenties got out of the cars.

　　Gu Ranran immediately became alert, got up and put the antiques on the display stand into the secret room.

　　Even the vase that could open the secret room was put under the quilt.

　　The secret she is hiding now is not just her enormous wealth, but also the life and death of tens of thousands of people in the entire Liangzhou City. She has no choice but to be careful.

　　After finishing all this, she went to the door with pepper spray, ready to find out what was going on.

　　When I opened the door, I saw one of the middle-aged bald men lifting the fence of his house.

　　"No, who are you? Let go of my hands immediately."

　　He's here in broad daylight, he couldn't be here to steal the chicks.

　　The bald man looked at Gu Ranran and asked, "Who are you? Xiao Ran?"

　　This sound of Xiao Ran burned out Gu Ranran's CPU.

　　Who would call her so affectionately?

　　She asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"

　　The bald man didn't say anything, and the woman next to him laughed, "Xiao Ran, I'm your second aunt, and he's your second uncle."

　　"This is your cousin Wang Jiale."

　　Gu Ranran's brain was spinning rapidly. Second uncle? Second aunt? Cousin? Where did he come from?

　　After thinking for a long time, I finally got some idea.

　　A long time ago, I seemed to have heard my father say that he had a younger brother who was adopted out in his early years and later went to Wancheng to become a son-in-law.

　　The two brothers only spoke on the phone a few times and did not have much substantive contact.

　　He didn't even come to the funeral when his parents died, so what's the point of coming now?

　　"Ran Ran." Second Aunt looked around the ancestral house and asked, "You live here now? Aren't you scared as a girl in this remote place?"

　　Gu Ranran had a hunch that the other party was coming for the ancestral home.

　　She said coldly, "Who said I live alone? I'm married, and my husband is a lawyer in Jiangcheng."

　　No matter what, let's shock them first.

　　If it really involves a dispute over family property, a lawyer can still be very useful.

　　Sure enough, when the second uncle and second aunt heard this, the smiles on their faces instantly faded a little, "You are all married, that's great, that's great."

　　At this time, another middle-aged man on the side said with some dissatisfaction, "Old Gu, it seems that you can't make the decision."

　　"You should have told me earlier that this house doesn't belong to your family. You're wasting my time."

　　After saying that, he got in the car and left.

　　The second uncle quickly ran over and said something nice, "Wait a minute, I'll talk to my niece about it."

　　Gu Ranran understood most of what was said.

　　My second uncle thought that no one wanted the ancestral home, so he took the opportunity to sell it or make other plans.

　　But the property certificate for the ancestral home is in my parents’ names. What the hell are they thinking?

　　The second uncle ran up to Gu Ranran and said, "Xiao Ran, this agency is offering three million to buy our ancestral home. If you miss this opportunity, you will miss it forever."

　　Gu Ranran did not hide her impatience, "Whether it's sold for three million or five million, what does it have to do with you?"

　　Hearing this, Second Aunt was unhappy.

　　"Xiao Ran, you are a girl, and you are married. This ancestral house must be reserved for your cousin to marry a wife."

　　Gu Ranran: “…”

　　No, Second Aunt’s ideas are very advanced. The Qing Dynasty has been gone for so many years, and she still wants to restore it?

　　The house her parents left her, just because she is a girl, she doesn't deserve it?

　　Ever since coming to Xiaohe Village and being swept away by the beautiful scenery and countryside, Gu Ranran hasn't been this angry for a long time.

　　She suppressed her anger and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"

　　Chapter 42: Total Victory

　　Second Aunt was a little confused. She said with a gloomy face, "How can this child be so disrespectful?"

　　"It's okay if you don't recognize me as your second aunt. Your second uncle and cousin are all related to you by blood."

　　Gu Ranran rolled her eyes. "Blood relationship? Go and prove that you are my uncle and aunt first."

　　He is just empty talker, and he wants her wealth right away, without even taking a piss and looking in the mirror.

　　The cousin who had been playing games on his phone was a little impatient, "Mom, don't waste your time talking to her, let's go to court and sue her."

　　The second uncle glared at his son and said, "How can you talk to your cousin like that? We are a family and we cannot hurt each other's feelings."

　　"My son is right." Second Aunt stopped pretending, "Look at how useless you are. You can't even hold a little girl."

　　My second uncle is a henpecked husband and he doesn't dare to get angry even when my second aunt scolds him in public.

　　Gu Ranran was in no mood to watch this family's performance. She went straight into the house and slammed the door.

　　I originally thought that the weird relatives in Yang Shizi's novels were all made up by brainless authors, but I didn't expect that she would really encounter them.

　　…

　　In the car.

　　Second Aunt slapped Second Uncle on the arm with all her strength, and a large patch of Second Uncle's arm instantly turned red.

　　"The three million we got just flew away like that. What will happen to Jiale's house?"

　　Their family originally lived in Wancheng, and later a neighbor introduced a partner to Wang Jiale.

　　The woman is from Jiangcheng, and the first requirement is that she must have a house in Jiangcheng.

　　The starting price of housing in Jiangcheng is 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, so a 100-square-meter house would cost 5 or 6 million yuan.

　　After being anxious and angry for half a month, Second Aunt thought about Second Uncle's ancestral home.

　　"Let's think of another way." Second Uncle sighed, "How about selling our current house to make up for the loss?"

　　Second Auntie got even angrier when she heard this. "What are you thinking? That house is mine. Don't even think about it."

　　"You are a grown man, you eat at my house, you live at my house, and at the end of your life you bought a house for your son and you still thought about my house."

　　The second uncle didn't dare to say anything and drove with a lot of anger.

　　"Mom." Wang Jiale suddenly said excitedly, "Gu Ranran seems to be working at Blue Rain Media. Let's go to her company and have some fun."

　　The second aunt was inspired by her son and immediately praised him, "Your son is really smart. He inherited this from you."

　　"Let's go to her company and put up banners tomorrow."

　　It was only last year that my second uncle and his family found out that Gu Ranran was working at Blue Rain Media.

　　I thought my niece had become a big star, but she still wanted to take advantage of me.

　　Later I found out that the roles they played became smaller and smaller, and in the end they didn't even have any lines, so they gave up.

　　Gu Ranran could never have imagined that these three smart guys were so capable.

　　But she didn't have time to compete with them now, she had more important things to do.

　　Opening the tablet, Gu Ranran recorded a video for Shen Moyuan.

　　[Brother Shen, how is the war going? Was your mother's rescue successful? ]

　　It has been a while since the Star Dream Grass was passed around, so logically there should be some movement.

　　The study in the palace at this time.

　　Qingming Guard Jifeng, who was sent to the north to gather information, has just returned.

　　"Your Majesty, I have seen Chi Ying and Si Sha. They have escorted the Queen to Tongzhou."

　　In order to reassure the prince, Chiying and his men traveled day and night, and Jifeng also rushed back without stopping to bring back the good news.

　　Shen Moyuan raised his eyes, his eyes filled with joy.

　　Once we reach Tongzhou, we can reach Liangzhou in less than five days.

　　Chen Zhi also asked excitedly, "Your Majesty, do you need to arrange for someone to pick up Chi Ying and Si Sha?"

　　Shen Moyuan hesitated for a moment and waved his hand, "No need, making a big fuss will only cause problems."

　　Chi Ying and Si Sha are both masters among masters, and they act in secret, which is actually safer.

　　After a pause, Shen Moyuan continued, "Repel Nan Chu before Mother arrives."

　　He would not allow anyone to disturb the mother-son reunion that was finally achieved.

　　Liangzhou City.

　　I watched my brother hanging outside the city wall, already dying.

　　Yu Wen Ze's eyes were filled with hatred, "Shen Moyuan, I'm going to peel off your skin."

　　He had never suffered such an insult since he became a general at the age of sixteen.

　　He ordered his subordinates, "Attack the city tonight and make sure to rescue Chengtai."

　　Even though he lost 20,000 cavalrymen, he still had 180,000 troops.

　　In addition, Nanchu has the most powerful siege vehicles among the four barbarian countries, so he doesn't believe that he can't take down a mere Liangzhou City.

　　It was night, midnight.

　　The Southern Chu Army quietly set out towards the city wall.

　　On the city wall, the guards were staggering and dozing off.

　　At Yuwen Ze's command, 50,000 vanguard troops pushed engineering vehicles and launched a fierce attack.

　　"Don't, don't come near."

　　Yuwen Chengtai shouted with all his might on the city wall.

　　But he had not eaten or drunk anything for several days, and his voice was as small as a fly, so the Nan Chu soldiers below could not hear it at all.

　　Before the siege vehicle reached the city wall, countless unidentified objects fell from the sky, followed by a loud thunder-like noise, and then brilliant Gatling fireworks lit up the sky.

　　Only then did Yuwen Ze realize that the deserters were not exaggerating, but that it was indeed true.

　　Just like last time, it was too late to retreat.

　　Faced with the fierce fighting Yuanming Army, Yuwen Ze was defeated step by step, and finally fled back to the territory of Southern Chu in a panic, leaving behind hundreds of thousands of corpses.

　　Looking at the soldiers being either burned or injured by the explosion, Yu Wen Ze felt a surge of fear in his heart.

　　Could it be that Liangzhou City had the help of a god? Could it be that he could use the heavenly fire and thunder?

　　He couldn't think of any other possibility.

　　At this time, the lieutenant general came in with two things in his hands and reported, "General, this is the strange weapon used by the Liangzhou garrison."

　　Yuwen Ze frowned and hesitated for a moment before taking the item from the lieutenant general.

　　One was pitch black, the other was colorful. The patterns and words on it were blurry and he couldn't make out anything.

　　Yu Wen Ze handed the item back to the lieutenant general and said, "Keep it safe. Let the Divine Artifact Battalion take a look when we return to Kyoto."

　　The Divine Artifact Camp is an institution in Nanchu that specializes in researching siege equipment and various weapons. Perhaps the skilled craftsmen there might be able to know a thing or two.

　　At this time, there was a bustling scene in Liangzhou City.

　　Defeating an enemy that is ten times larger than oneself is a great achievement that no other general, including Shen Moyuan, has ever achieved.

　　Shen Moyuan took out the lighter from his pocket, examined it and said, "In this battle, Miss Ranran should be credited with the first merit."

　　"It's a pity that I am short of money and have nothing good to give her in return."

　　If it weren't for the reinforced concrete, Gatling guns and firecrackers, Liangzhou City would have been reduced to a scorched earth long ago.

　　This kindness could definitely not be compensated by money. But Shen Moyuan wanted to give everything he had to the other party.

　　Chen Zhi suddenly smiled slyly, "Your Majesty, we don't have it, but Nan Chu does."

　　Chapter 43 is trending again

　　Shen Moyuan glanced at Chen Zhi and said, "You are still keeping me in suspense."

　　Chen Zhi knew that his master was not really angry, so he smiled and said, "It's useless to keep Yuwen Chengtai, so why not exchange him for some property from Nanchu?"

　　Shen Moyuan nodded slightly. This was a good suggestion.

　　There is not much point in killing Yuwen Chengtai's dog head.

　　It would be better to exchange it for something valuable and send it to Miss Ranran.

　　…

　　If Gu Ranran knew how much Shen Moyuan felt about her, she would be so moved that she would cry.

　　The man from another world actually cared about her so much, while her own uncle was trying his best to cheat her.

　　Buzz buzz buzz.

　　Gu Ranran's phone vibrated anxiously a few times. It was Xia Ke calling.

　　After answering the call, I heard the other party impatiently say, "Sister, you are on the trending search."

　　Gu Ranran was stunned for a moment, "What? You must have made a mistake."

　　Except for the time when she was wrongly accused of having sex with someone else by the company, she had never been able to buy hot searches with money.

　　Now that I am an amateur, how can I still be on the hot search list?

　　"Hurry up and check Weibo." Xia Ke was so anxious, "I'm on my way to Xiaohe Village, stay calm."

　　Gu Ranran opened the Weibo post with doubt, and sure enough, she saw the third person's post clearly stated: [Gu Ranran has no regard for his relatives and is morally corrupt.]

　　What's going on?

　　When she clicked on it, she suddenly understood.

　　Downstairs at Blue Rain Media, the second uncle and second aunt, wearing masks, held up a banner: [Gu Ranran has lost her humanity and embezzled the money that her loved ones used to save their lives. ]

　　What a sharp wording.

　　Close relatives? Who?

　　Her parents are all dead, so where can she find close relatives?

　　What's more, my second uncle clearly wanted to use the money to buy a house for that stupid cousin, so how did it become life-saving money?

　　Can’t live without a wife?

　　Shameless, the worst of shame.

　　Even though she repeatedly told herself to stay calm, Gu Ranran was still very angry.

　　No, even if she could be shameless, she couldn't let her weird relative jump around like that.

　　…

　　Blue Rain Media.

　　Chu Muyao said viciously, "No matter what, this time I must make Gu Ranran a rat crossing the street."

　　What she thought came true. Ever since she met Gu Ranran in the mall last time, she has been looking for opportunities to make trouble for her.

　　Sister Wu nodded. "She has been on the hot search for a week. If she looks for a job in the future, she will have moral flaws and no one will dare to hire her."

　　Sister Wu now has several duties. She has to serve Mr. Jiang and Chu Muyao, and also find a venue for the young man who is farming. She is very busy.

　　"One week is not enough." Chu Muyao held up two fingers, "I'll pay for her to stay online for two months."

　　She wanted to make Gu
