Zhao Lei, who came out of the palace, thought of the instructions given by his master Wang Bi when he returned to Xianyang, telling him to take good care of Ran Fang, and to give all the credit to Ran Fang, and to plead for Ran Fang in front of His Majesty. A grace.
But he actually broke the trust of the adults, and even felt ashamed of Ran Fang because of his promotion, so he never went to Xianyang Prison, but sometimes he would send some food there.
Now that Miao Yuan wanted to frame Ran Fang, he naturally had to go over and tell him so that he could prepare a countermeasure in advance.
When he arrived at Xianyang Prison, he saw that it was still the same as usual. He entered Ran Fang's new office without anyone informing him.
At just one glance, he felt that it looked so depressed, even worse than his own house.
This time, he felt a little more sympathetic to Ran Fang.
However, he didn't think much and immediately stood there with his hands raised and saluted Ran Fang.
"I'm here to report to you, Commander-in-Chief Commander Zhao Lei."
Seeing the person coming, a rare look of surprise flashed in Ran Fang's eyes.
After all, the people who came to congratulate him should have been here a few days ago, and no one should have come after such a long time.
And seeing that there was nothing in his hand, he must not have come to congratulate him.
"What's the matter?"
This time, Zhao Lei saluted Ran Fang respectfully again, with a slight apology on his face.
"To be honest with you, your Majesty, I am the deputy general of General Wang. He followed your Majesty to the Chu region to annihilate the Pan bandits. Then, by your Majesty's order, I personally returned to Xianyang to report my military exploits."
"At that time, my master ordered that this battle achievement must be recorded in my husband's name and help him get out of Xianyang Prison."
"Can……"
Having said this, he lowered his head guiltily.
Ran Fang didn't care. After all, Ying Zheng was unwilling to let him go. So what if he had great military exploits?
And it’s not like he went to suppress the bandits himself, who would allow this?
"It doesn't matter, this matter is over."
"Thank you, sir."
Zhao Lei nodded repeatedly, and the tense expression in his eyes relaxed a lot.
He smiled and said: "Now that I have seen that my lord has gone through all the hardships, I feel relieved and can go back and report it to my lord."
"Congratulations, sir."
"I have already sent the message to my adults. I believe you will receive the letter in a few days!"
"I think my adults will be happy for my husband when they find out!"
Ran Fang waved his hand and took this matter to heart.
"You are here not just to congratulate me, right?"
Upon hearing Ran Fang's reminder, Zhao Lei's originally cheerful expression suddenly turned into a frown.
His expression was drooping, there was still some embarrassment in his eyes, and there was still a hint of hatred.
"I was so excited just now that I forgot about the real thing."
"My lord, I don't know. This official has just come out of the palace."
"My lord, do you know what the purpose of this official entering the palace is?"
Ran Fang listened to him sometimes as a gentleman, and sometimes as an adult. He was a little confused, but seeing that Zhao Lei spoke very smoothly, he didn't say anything.
He just shook his head expressionlessly, still looking at the bamboo slips in his hand, not taking Zhao Lei's words to heart at all.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhao Lei didn't look discouraged, and even felt faintly angry.
After a moment, he continued: "For the supply of the army!"
"Now the supply issue for the army has been delayed for a long time."
"This matter is related to the safety of our Great Qin. If something happens, we will be blamed even if we die ten thousand times!"
"But Nazhi Su Neishi used the excuse that the treasury was empty and refused to give me Da Qin money!"
"This is killing my Da Qin soldiers!"
"What I didn't expect is that Miao Yuan actually asked Your Majesty to hand over the supply of the general to your Majesty."
"It is estimated that from time to time, His Majesty's oral instructions will come."
As he spoke, he also looked in the direction of the palace.
Ran Fang really didn't expect this kind of thing.
It seems that Ying Zheng is indeed worried about him, and some of the ministers in the court want to target him!
Although his official position is outside the three Dukes and Nine Ministers, his salary is the same as that of the Three Dukes, which will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction and even jealousy of other ministers in the court.
If Miao Yuan dared to target him this time, there must be someone behind him. Otherwise, how could a small prime minister say so forcefully that the treasury was empty?
"It's so true."
"It seems that I am an eyesore to some people in Xianyang Prison!"
"But... I haven't paid much attention to such trivial matters."
He was surprised to see that there was no trace of worry on Ran Fang's face.
He couldn't help but have doubts about Ran Fang's mind, and he couldn't help but said: "Sir, do you know that the supply of this army is by no means a small number!"
"How can you, a commander, collect so much money?!"
"This matter was deliberately targeted by Miao Yuan. You can go to the palace in person and ask His Majesty to take back your order. Maybe the matter will be solved."
"Fortunately, His Majesty's oral instructions have not yet been received at this time, so there is still room for correction."
Hearing this, Ran Fang couldn't help but lower his head and laugh out loud.
This Zhao Lei is a man of temperament. If he goes to the palace to find Ying Zheng at this moment, it doesn't mean that Zhao Lei is attracted to him, and His Majesty will definitely have a grudge against him.
By then, not only him, but also the Wang family may be implicated.
"Don't worry, I have a solution for this matter."
"Since you were in the palace just now, can you see the gift I gave to His Majesty?"
Zhao Lei nodded fiercely. When he saw Na Wan Gen in the prison just now, he actually praised him deeply in his heart.
Now that Ran Fang mentioned it, he couldn't help but praise: "Sir, I have never seen such a magical thing before!"
"Just one glance just now was enough to make me marvel for a long time."
"Even that little man Miao Yuan was amazed when he saw Wanyuan, and His Majesty couldn't put it down!"
"My lord is so admirable!"
After getting his answer, Ran Fang was very satisfied. This was the effect he wanted.
It seems that his business can start.
"That way, you can rest assured."
Zhao Lei wanted to know the meaning of Ran Fang's words. He wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. He could only lower his head and hope that Yu Ran Fang would take the initiative to say it.
It's just a pity that Ran Fang didn't mean to say anything.
The look he looked at was still filled with doubts, as if he was asking why he hadn't left yet?
Seeing this, Zhao Lei had no choice but to bow and say goodbye.
When he walked to the door, he saw Cao Yangyun passing him by with an exquisite box in his hand.
Although he didn't care about Cao Yangyun, he still saw the box, which was exactly the same as the one sent to the palace today.
Then, he continued walking outside.
Cao Yangyun walked straight towards Ran Fang without squinting his eyes.
"See my lord."
After saluting, he respectfully placed the box in front of Ran Fang and opened the lid of the box.
What was exposed inside was still a box, but this box was transparent and square, with a flower on it, which looked more delicate than the plate.
Seeing this thing again, Cao Yangyun's eyes were filled with surprise.
However, he also had some doubts in his heart.
"Sir, why did Wan Gen only do twenty and then no more?"
"Now that the square box craftsmen have become proficient in making it, can we continue to make Wanyuan?"
