After some intimacy, the two expressed their longings to each other, which made their excited hearts calm down a little. Zhao Xuanyi hugged Zhu Yuejun tightly in his arms, and then took out the Qilin Order: "I have arranged the personnel and arranged them. I will take all these generals with me." Let’s go, there are three thousand captains left on the Qilin Guard side, and there are a total of five thousand captains and one fourth-grade general in the border army!”
"Li Hanrui, I left it for you. If you need anything, just use the token to give orders. If something unexpected happens, I will come back immediately to assist! With tens of thousands of my Qilin Guards here, they can hold on until I come back no matter what!"
Zhu Yuejun raised his head and looked at Zhao Xuanyi, his eyes full of worry, "You must be careful outside, I'm very worried!" After all, this is not a defensive war, but a war to slaughter the country! Needless to say, there is no need to mention the danger!
"Don't worry, if I find something wrong, I will evacuate immediately. I am not a fool and will not be a martyr! I haven't had enough of you yet!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed Zhu Yuejun's shoulder!
Zhu Yuejun hugged Zhao Xuanyi gently, "I'll wait for you to come back, and wait for you to come back and stay with me every night!"
"Okay! I'm not leaving tonight!"
"Okay!" Zhu Yuejun slowly closed his eyes and enjoyed Zhao Xuanyi's kiss!
Zhao Xuanyi slowly raised his head, "By the way, has the emperor's military pay been paid?"
"It will be sent to the military camp tomorrow!"
"So happy? It's really good to have his own son working efficiently!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled after saying this.
"You always have some misunderstandings, but the Emperor and the Queen are always a little worried because the Crown Prince is marching in person!"
"If you ask me, they shouldn't worry about it. Who is Zhu Wenyu? He has been wandering alone in the world for more than ten years, and nothing has happened. Moreover, he has martial arts skills, and with my Qilin Guard, everything will be fine!"
"After all, the positions are different. The prince is the future and hope of a country, so it's different!"
"Yes, yes, everyone in your family is a treasure!"
"You are my baby too!" Zhu Yuejun said with a smile.
"Really?" After Zhao Xuanyi said this, he and Zhu Yuejun laughed, and the two hugged each other again!
The next morning, Zhao Xuanyi came to the military camp, and the military pay had already been delivered. This time the emperor was very generous and directly took out 20 million taels and sent someone directly from the treasury to the military camp!
Zhao Xuanyi immediately ordered an inventory. With so much silver, it would be troublesome if someone had embezzled it! After checking, there were a lot of one or two, Zhao Xuanyi nodded with satisfaction, and immediately ordered them all to be put into the army warehouse!
At noon that day, Zhao Xuanyi came to Du's house and found Du Chun. When Du Chun saw Zhao Xuanyi coming, he immediately greeted him with a smile, "Son-in-law, you are here!"
"See my father-in-law!" Zhao Xuanyi saluted immediately!
"Ouch...! I can't bear it, get up, get up!" Du Chun grinned widely, and the dignified Lord Protector saluted him. He was so excited!
Zhao Xuanyi sat down, and his servants hurriedly brought fragrant tea. Du Chun looked at Zhao Xuanyi, "Son-in-law, I heard that you are very busy recently, how come you still have time to come to my place? Is there anything you need?"
"Father-in-law is smart! Aren't I going to conquer Japan? But you also know that the military rations consumed along the way are huge, so I'm here to beg you. Now that the military pay from the imperial court has been distributed, I want to give you some first. Silver, please help me collect food from everywhere and transport it all to Yingtian Mansion!"
Zhao Xuanyi also took out a map, "This is the route I want to march on. I will be here along the way, and there are three supply points in Yingtian Mansion here. I will give you five thousand people. Please hand over the food you collected." Give it to them and send them to these three places!"
"Oh...that's what happened!" Du Chun nodded and said.
"You don't need to store much in the first two points. Yingtian Mansion is my last supply point. It needs the most here. Father-in-law, please help me!" Zhao Xuanyi said very politely.
"Son-in-law, don't worry. I may not be able to help with other things. I'm good at harvesting grain. I'll take people out in the afternoon. When the time comes, send someone over and I'll make arrangements immediately!"
"Then I would like to thank my father-in-law. In this way, I will send someone to you in the afternoon, and I will bring you five million taels of silver first. You can sell as much as you can buy with the money. Don't be afraid of more, but be afraid of not being enough! "
"Don't worry, son-in-law, I understand this kind of thing!"
"Also, this matter is a military secret. Father-in-law, don't tell anyone else, and keep it secret from the outside world. If anyone wants to harm me, they will definitely not give you food!"
After hearing this, Du Chun's expression became serious, "Don't worry, I won't let them harm my son-in-law! Wherever there is food, where can I buy food? I have a clear family!"
"Then I'll leave everything to my father-in-law! I can't leave such an important matter to someone I don't trust!" Zhao Xuanyi stood up and bowed!
"Son-in-law, you're welcome!" Du Chun said with a smile. At this moment, he felt that the burden on his body was very heavy, and there was also a sense of glory. After all, he was doing things for the country!
Zhao Xuanyi returned home just in time for lunch. Several wives, Tang Mi and others were there. Zhao Xuanyi walked into the hall with a smile. "It smells so good! Did you stew meat today?" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"Brother Su had nothing to do today and went outside the capital to hunt a wild boar!" Tang Rou said with a smile.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Su Minghua with a smile, "Brother Su is so good, I don't even have to buy meat when you are at home!"
Su Minghua smiled and said nothing. Zhao Xuanyi sat down to eat with everyone and turned to look at Shen Wei, "After lunch, I sent an order to mobilize 5,000 border guards and send them all to the Du family with 5 million silver taels and hand them over to Du Yuanwai in person!" Let him help buy food!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei nodded and said.
After Du Xinyu heard this, she turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi, "How much? Five million taels?"
"The price for supplying hundreds of thousands of troops is not too high!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Confused!" Du Xinyu shouted immediately, "You gave him all the money? Do you know how much he could take advantage of to embezzle? At least one-tenth!"
"Now is the time of war. It's good to have enough food. How can you choose so clearly? Besides, he is also my father-in-law and a member of his own family. It's normal to have a little oil and water. As long as he doesn't interrupt my supply line, what's the matter? They are all strong!"
"No, you must not give the initiative to him! In this way, I will go with you in the afternoon, and I will follow him when he goes out to collect food. This money is for you and the soldiers to eat and fight the enemy. It must not fall into his pocket. ! From now on, I will be responsible for collecting food for you!"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he frowned, "Is this appropriate?"
"What's inappropriate? This is the country's money. No matter how greedy he is, we can't let him eat it!" Du Xinyu said righteously.
Li Hanyan smiled, "The third child is exterminating relatives for the sake of justice, I agree!"
After Du Xinyu heard this, she smiled even more happily! Zhao Xuanyi sighed, "Then be careful and don't let anyone fool you again! I don't have time to save you!"
"Don't worry, I know it myself!" Du Xinyu said very confidently.
"Three days, counting from tomorrow, I will give you three days to deliver all the food to the supply point. I will set off in three days!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"no problem!"
Three days? After hearing this number, the faces of several women changed. Li Hanyan didn't care, but Tang Rou and Ziyuan's expressions became very unhappy. After all, they couldn't follow them to the battlefield! I don’t know how long this journey will take!
After lunch, Tang Rou came to Zhao Xuanyi with her child in her arms. Without saying a word, she put the child into Zhao Xuanyi's arms and said, "Go to my room to spend the night tonight!"
"Ah? Oh, okay!" Zhao Xuanyi hugged the child and kept teasing the child.
"Come tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!"
"This...?" Zhao Xuanyi looked around and said, "The rain and dew are all wet!"
"I don't care! If you don't come, I will go find you with the baby in my arms. I'll see which hospital you go to!"
"Stop making trouble! Aren't you trying to divide my family? Be good!"
"Who asked you to marry so many people? You are the one who is annoyed!" Tang Rou glared at Zhao Xuanyi.
Zhao Xuanyi felt aggrieved and looked down at his son, "You can only marry one in the future, don't imitate your father, it's too tiring!"
Tang Rou sneered, "Why don't you complain about being tired at night?"
"..."Zhao Xuanyi!
Du Xinyu really kept his word and came to the military camp in the afternoon.
Command five thousand border guards to load up the money, and then lead this group of people to the Du family!
The five thousand soldiers looked at this childish-looking girl, and their eyes widened in surprise, "Who is this little girl? She is so arrogant here?"
"Don't talk nonsense, this is the third wife of the Lord Protector. Despite her young age, she is very good at business. She has her own food shop in the capital. This time she is going to collect food for the expeditionary army!"
"Oh...that's it! Where are we going to collect food?"
"I heard it's her father's mansion!"
"...?" Why does it sound a little wrong?
When Du Xinyu came to the Du family, Du Chun's face was full of anger, "Why... why are you here?"
"Nonsense, my husband is fighting on the front line, so naturally I, a good wife, cannot be idle! Now my princess officially informs you that from now on, you will receive the kilograms of food, the price, the location, and the transportation fees, etc. Everything must go through my wife's review. If you dare to embezzle money, you are embezzling the country's money. The result is very simple. You and your rebellious son will go to jail. I think he must miss you very much now!" Du Xinyu said in an arrogant manner. .
The border guard behind him took a look and wondered, are these the biological father and daughter? Why do you feel like you are an enemy?
"You...?" Du Chun was so angry that he was trembling all over. He pointed at Du Xinyu, but couldn't say a word!
"Stop wasting time, it's time to collect grain. Where should we go? Shanxi? Or Shaanxi?"
"Me?" Du Chun hesitated again and again, and finally sighed, "Shaanxi!"
Du Xinyu turned to look at the soldiers behind him, "Did you hear it? Get ready!"
"Yes!" Five thousand border guards immediately began to prepare carriages and silver coins!
In the inn in the capital, Zi Zi hurriedly ran back. Zhu Qing had already collected all the things. Zi Zi hurriedly ran over, "Princess, our people saw that Zhao Xuanyi has already started preparations. It is estimated that it will be done in the next few days." We have left the capital, what should we do?"
"What else can I do? Go back to Yunnan first, and then see what my father will do?"
"Sending troops to assist?" ap.
Zhu Qing stared at Ye Zi, "Are you stupid? How can you help Zhao Xuanyi in this situation? This is a good opportunity!"
"What a good opportunity?" Ye Zi thought for a moment and seemed to have thought of something, with a look of surprise on his face. "Are you planning to send Zhao Xuanyi...?"
Zhu Qing covered Ye Zi's mouth, "Be careful, the walls have ears! Don't say anything, prepare things immediately. We are leaving the capital now. I guess my father has received our flying pigeon letter by now. Let's see what he wants now." How prepared!"
"Yes!" Ye Zi also picked up the matter. This was no small matter, and Ye Zi didn't dare to be careless!
Zhao Xuanyi is sitting in his study. Now that the food problem has been solved, with the eldest princess guiding the way, no one should dare to stop him. If anyone wants to cause trouble for him at this time, wait until I come back from Japan. Instead of asking for money, it will directly cost your life!
Shen Wei knocked on the door and walked into the study: "Young Master, Sun Yan Feige is sending a message!"
"read!"
"Yes, now the first batch of grain and grass has been transported to Yingtian Mansion, and they have successfully met with the Far Eastern Army. The opponent is 40,000 elite soldiers led by Tang Yue, 20,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry! Now these more than 40,000 soldiers are busy cutting down trees and preparing sledges! "
After Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he smiled, "I didn't expect that Tang Yue would actually come to help?"
"Part of it is for your sake, and the other half is probably for the prince's face!"
Zhao Xuanyi understood the meaning of Shen Wei's words. After all, the prince was conquering the army himself. This was the future king. If he could show his face in front of the prince and gain merit, the road ahead would naturally be less bumpy!
"That's good! Although Tang Yue lacks strategy, he is brave enough! He is also our partner, and he can be trusted!"
Shen Wei thought for a while, then looked at Zhao Xuanyi, "Young Master, let me talk. Could it be that Miss Tang Mi came up with the plan?"
After Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he frowned slightly. Shen Wei's worry was not unnecessary. According to Tang Mi's character, it was possible! "Where's Tang Mi?"
