Immediately, the ministers nodded and praised: "The prince's suggestion is good. This way, His Highness the Southern King does not have to work hard to retrain new soldiers to guard the southern border, and at the same time, it can maintain the image of the regular army of the Northern Dynasty."
The purpose of what they said was that Nangong Yuanyi should not make decisions on his own, and let people who had been killers receive the military rations of the Northern Dynasty, and the Northern Dynasty should not rely on people with unknown origins to protect it.
But they didn't know that the money allocated by the court could not even feed the soldiers. All other military expenses were paid by Nangong Yuanyi himself.
For a moment, everyone in the court gave the prince a thumbs up, and some even said: "I can see the late emperor's demeanor in the prince. Sure enough, he led troops and fought with General Su."
Although there were no major battles in the Northern Dynasty, there were still disturbances in the border areas. It was only thanks to the Su family's army to guard them that the foreigners from the Western Regions did not dare to cause trouble to the Northern Dynasty.
Even Xue Shangshu had nothing to say. If the Northern Dynasty really went to war with the Cangyi Kingdom, the prince's proposal was undoubtedly the best solution.
Back then, Nangong Youming gave Prince Yu 500,000 military rights, which consolidated the position of Prince Yu's palace in the Northern Dynasties. In fact, it was also to protect Nangong Yuanyi.
The military talisman is now in the hands of the emperor and will naturally be handed over to the prince in the future, so those who support the prince will naturally be happier.
An Yuxiao's expression was indifferent, and he did not express his opinion, nor did he follow the officials to flatter him. Since King Yu handed over the military power, only the emperor has the right to decide who will fall into the hands of the army in the future. The prince is the crown prince, and there is no dispute about this.
Officialdom is a vanity fair, and everyone follows their own interests.
Finally, An Yuxiao left the palace directly after going to court.
Back at An Mansion, Mother Liu was waiting in the yard. When An Yuxiao saw Mother Liu, he naturally knew that the old lady was waiting for him.
On the other side was the courtyard of Sanfang. At this time, the sound of silk and bamboo came from inside. An Yuxiao asked: "The third master didn't go to the Yamen?"
Mother Liu replied: "I didn't go. Since Miss Yuan got married yesterday, more and more people came to congratulate the third master this morning, and they even brought gifts."
An Yuxiao frowned slightly. There had been a lot of trouble yesterday, and there were still people coming today. He was not afraid that his third brother would make friends, but he was afraid that he would be in trouble in the future and he would not be able to clean up the mess.
In today's court dispute, the prince's purpose is very clear, he wants half a million soldiers. Now the third brother is being sought after by various officials, large and small, which is probably a disaster rather than a blessing.
An Yuxiao only stayed for a moment before heading towards the old lady's courtyard.
Ruixueyuan.
The old lady looked very bad and had been lying in bed for several days. Even the imperial doctor was invited, but her health was not improving.
Seeing Mei Yunluo's sad face, Mrs. Yu comforted her: "When people get old, they have to accept their old age. When people get sick, it is difficult to recover. I can see it, but I miss Yue'er a little. She wrote a letter recently. Yet?"
Mei Yunluo shook his head, "I guess it's on the way. It's far away. It takes ten days and a half to send a letter."
Mrs. Yu also knew that she sent Mother Liu to guard her every day.
She just said: "Take out the letter she sent back and read it to me." She was afraid that I wouldn't be able to wait for her to come back.
In an instant, Mei Yunluo's eyes were filled with tears. Yue'er not only sent back a letter, but also sent back medicinal recipes for the old lady's health. However, the old lady's health continued to get worse and worse, and she couldn't even drink the medicine. No improvement.
"Yes..." Mei Yunluo said.
