The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 172 172. Sun Chi

Gong Wei Guo said for sure because everything has been arranged.

Now the granaries in Dongdu City are so piled up that there is no room for them, so the issue of food and grass is not a big problem. All we have to do is prepare them actively in the past few days.

The most important thing is that the eldest prince and his party are still entertaining the envoys who come to congratulate them with singing and dancing, but the ninth prince is going out to defend the country. What is right and what is wrong can be understood at a glance.

 Not only suppressed the arrogance of the eldest prince's faction, but also stepped on them to gain more favor from His Majesty. Such a battle was simply a gift sent to them from heaven.

Duke Wei smiled coldly and said, "This news needs to be kept secret for two more days. It would be best to wait until General Xiao Ji can no longer hold on and Liangzhou City is about to be destroyed, and then His Highness will appear as a heavenly being. Only then will the real people’s wishes come true.”

For them, the lives of border officers and the people's livelihood and contentment are trivial matters. Getting the biggest reward from this battle is the most important thing.

“Grandpa, this is a very good move. All the achievements of the envoys and receptions are insignificant in front of the military achievements. If the eldest brother knew that all the hard work he did was to pave the way for this king, I wonder if he would be so angry that he fainted on the spot.”

 Both of them have a desire for great power in their eyes and have no compassion at all.

Upon seeing this, Master Du immediately reminded, "My lord, your Ninth Highness, don't forget that the second son of the Xiao family, whom General Xiao Ji regards as his own son, is still in the capital. If he is here, he will go all out to leave." The army is rushing to aid Liangzhou."

 "Don't worry, I have my own plans for him. Keeping him has ruined his reputation and heart."

The old and sarcastic eyes of Duke Wei were full of sarcasm. People should not have weaknesses, otherwise, they would be manipulated by others like a puppet on strings.

 “The prince is thoughtful and thoughtful, and the villain admires him.”

"Master Du, there is no need to be like this. I have called you here this time, and I have something to explain."

“My lord, please tell me, this villain will not give up even if he dies!”

“The ancients said that before the troops arrive, food and grass go first. Although the food in the capital is enough to cope with the war in the northwest, the losses on the road and the food and grass lost in case of a surprise attack by the enemy..."

Before he finished speaking, Master Du understood Duke Wei's intention and immediately bowed and said, "Don't worry, Duke, the villain's nephew is in charge of the army, and the grain and grass account books that have passed through his hands have never been There have been mistakes, and as for those losses, they will naturally have their place where they should go. Your Highness, the Ninth Highness, is fighting abroad and has made great achievements through hard work. We will do our best to assist you."

 A smart person knows everything at once.

Due to the accidental death of Director Cao this year, there will be a lot of inconvenience for the "tribute" of the Water Transport Department. Instead of focusing on the fat people who are being stared at, why not take advantage of the war to make some legitimate losses? Replenishing yourself is more reliable.

After discussing the arrangements for the army for a while, the Ninth Prince left with Master Du, looking very high-spirited when he left.

Duke Wei coughed twice and saw a middle-aged man walking in from outside the house.

 “Has the person been found?”

"Not yet, the other party has been very ruthless. All the brothers who escorted Mr. Sun are dead. When the brothers who went to rescue him that night arrived, the clues were also wiped out by the other party. However, after asking around, there is still news that Mr. Sun The master was caught and must have escaped."

“Humph, it’s been so many days and I haven’t found anyone yet, what use do you have!” Duke Wei was furious, and his scolding voice was like a signal of death, which made the man kneel to the ground in fright. "The thing he is holding in his hand is very important. Now that Feng Hai was stabbed and recuperating at home, he can't frame him for a while. In this case, it is better to get that thing back to make me feel at ease. As for this idiot Sun Zhen, It doesn’t matter whether you die or not.”

When Duke Wei thought of the fire in Xuzhou, he became very angry. It was really abominable that someone dared to attack his official ship. The most hateful thing was that he didn’t even know who did it afterwards. This kind of enemy is hiding in the dark. I He hadn't spent the day in the morning for a long time.

　　Suppressing the anger in his heart, he continued to give instructions, "One of the inspectors escaped, and there are twelve others. Tell them to keep their mouths shut. It won't be too late to make plans after Liang Quanbin takes office."

“Don’t worry, Lord, their wealth and life are in your hands. Every time something is delivered to the capital, it will be properly placed and no one will find any mistakes.”

Glancing at the man in black who had followed him for many years, Duke Wei Guo said after a moment, "I remember your son is over twenty, right? He has also practiced martial arts?"

The man in black tensed up his muscles instantly and was extremely frightened, but at this moment he was able to bite the bullet and said, "Yes."

“Then let’s send him as a personal guard behind His Highness, so that he can have someone to rely on in the future. When His Highness succeeds in his great cause, your Chengmen family will naturally follow him in the supreme glory.”

The man in black gritted his teeth and did not reply.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is a great thing, but in his eyes, it is undoubtedly sending his son to them again as an excuse. If possible, he would never reply, but now he can't refuse, so he just Be able to accept thousands of thanks.

 Looking at his attitude, Duke Wei took back the oppression he had just exerted and returned to his friendly appearance.

"Okay, get up, go and arrange that person's affairs, just for these few days, I want this scandal to be known to everyone in the city!"

"yes!"

After the man left, the Duke of Wei's palace returned to calm, and everyone was celebrating. In less than ten days, it would be Liang Wei's wedding day, but something ridiculous happened in Wei Lanxuan's yard.

Yue Jian, who has been serving her for many years, and her son, who is in charge of the house, have a dark pregnancy and are now two months pregnant.

At this moment, Wei Lanxuan looked at the two people kneeling below with hatred. One of them was trembling and kowtow to beg for mercy, while the other had a look of surrender.

"Yue Jian, do you know that having an affair with this person without authorization will ruin the reputation of our Wei family? If I kill you with a stick at this time, no one will dare to challenge you."

When she heard the word "kill with a stick," Yue Jian trembled with obvious fear, but her face had a look of resignation. She looked at Wei Lanxuan with tears in her eyes, "Miss, I know I did something wrong, so I don't dare to do anything more." Refute. I am sorry for the young lady and the Wei family. If the young lady wants to put me to death, then let me be put to death. I will never complain."

 After saying that, he banged his head a few times. His attitude was so firm that it highlighted the irresponsibility of Ali who was kneeling next to him.

"What about you? Have you thought about the consequences of seducing the first-class maid in my house?"

"Little... I didn't mean it, I was drunk... Please have mercy, Miss. Although Yue Jian and I have some real feelings, but... I never thought that Miss would have such a bad reputation before she got married. Action, miss, please have mercy on me, please have mercy on me.”
