Minister of War: "..."
Did he say something wrong
Because his daughter was engaged to the eldest emperor's grandson, he had been a little carried away and the emperor had alienated him. Now the eldest emperor's grandson has gone to guard the imperial mausoleum. Although the marriage has not been canceled, the eldest emperor's grandson will never think about getting married in this life. My daughter doesn't know whether she can get married or not. So he wanted to please the emperor, but he didn't expect that he would end up patting him on the horse's legs!
The Minister of War, facing the emperor's sinister gaze, bravely told him the countermeasures he had already thought of.
"The King of Huainan was accused of false accusations..."
After hearing this, the emperor's expression softened slightly and he did not look at him again. Then he looked at the other ministers: "My beloved ministers, you can tell me any good opinions you have. When going on an expedition, you need generals to lead the army, and you also need to have people to transport food and wounded. Reserve minister for medicine and other supplies, who do you think is the best person to fill these positions?"
Some things require brainstorming, and you may be able to find better solutions in the process.
Next, the ministers did not express their opinions one after another.
When going on an expedition, from the dispatch of military supplies and medicine to the formation of troops, who will lead the troops needs to make a good layout!
You can't fight an unprepared battle!
Lin Tingxuan was unanimously recommended by the generals and ministers who went on the expedition.
As for those transporting grain and medicinal materials, no one said anything, and no one wanted to be a hot potato!
The north and south have been affected by the disaster for nearly half a year. The imperial court has allocated food for disaster relief. After all the allocations have been made time and time again, there is definitely not enough food in the national treasury granary!
Whoever takes this hot potato will be in bad luck!
When soldiers go to the front line to fight, they can't go hungry!
But without food, where would they produce so much food
So no one said anything, after all, they didn't want to offend anyone.
However, this kind of thing usually falls on either the officials of the Ministry of War or the Ministry of Household Affairs, so the officials with lower official positions in these two departments lowered their heads and wished they could shrink their heads!
The second prince glanced at Marquis Shengping, who was standing next to the Minister of Household Affairs, and said with a smile: "Father, I think it is most appropriate to leave the transportation of food and medicine to Marquis Shichang and his son! Shichanghou! The Marquis of Chang became a Marquis based on grain, so he must be exceptional at managing and growing grain!"
Nuan Nuan glanced at the second prince, but before he could say anything, Nalan Jinnian was already unhappy!
Nalan Jinnian looked at the second prince and twitched the corners of his mouth.
Well, my future father-in-law will probably be promoted from the position of Marquis to Duke of the Kingdom!
But how dare you plot against the little girl’s father
Nalan Jinnian looked at him with a half-smile but said: "Second Emperor's Nephew, if you and the eldest prince hadn't fought at the palace gate, King Huainan would not have had an excuse to rebel. Now countless soldiers would have died through fire and water because of your fight. Lost his life!
The people were displaced and their families were destroyed! Doesn't your conscience hurt? Or was it intentional? "
The emperor's face turned dark instantly!
No, this traitor!
It's all his fault!
He glared at the second prince fiercely!
The second prince was shocked!
If you want to incriminate yourself, why bother
Does it have any of his business that the King of Huainan rebelled
The second prince has a hard time saying that the eldest brother has been punished to guard the imperial mausoleum for the rest of his life, so this whole thing falls on him!
He really didn't expect that King Huainan would use this as an excuse to rebel!
Thinking about the second prince like this makes me miss the time when the eldest prince was still around.
The second prince was extremely regretful, but he couldn't show it. He said hurriedly: "Father, I have been wronged! I was impulsive that day and I didn't expect that I would make a huge mistake. I was willing to lead the troops to fight and kill that dog King of Huainan." Cut off the thief's head, commit the crime, and give an account to my father!"
Nalan Jinnian smiled and looked him up and down: "Leading troops? Are you good at it, nephew of the Second Emperor? Even if you catch a serious criminal, you can let him escape outside the prison gate!"
If you lead troops to quell the rebellion, you won't capture King Huainan's rebel army in the capital, and then release them all without being able to capture them, right? Then the rebel army will really... tsk tsk. "
He didn't say any more and let everyone think about it!
When gods fight, no one dares to say a word.
King Jin’s mouth is really poisonous!
The second prince was angry and panicked: "That was an accident! Father..."
The emperor interrupted him with a cold face, and the anger in his heart was rising. One or two of them wanted to piss him off to death!
The emperor blew his beard and glared: "That's enough, you can't lead an army. If you want to, just be a soldier! You still have the chance to make meritorious deeds!"
Second Prince: "..."
Is he a dignified prince serving as a soldier
Nalan Jinnian smiled: "Brother Emperor, this is a good idea, but I'm afraid it's not enough to atone for his sins! After all, the second emperor's nephew committed a heinous crime that endangered the safety of Nalan Country and brought disaster to all living beings! Being a pawn, he alone can't We can’t kill countless enemy troops!”
Second Prince: "..."
Soldiers are the ones who die the fastest!
Death is not enough atonement
What else does Uncle Jin Wang want
"Brother, the soldiers are short of food and grass now! As far as I know, the second emperor's nephew doesn't have much, Zhuangzi and Liangtian have the most. I accidentally discovered that the second emperor's nephew has two big houses in Kangle Village and Ping'an Village. Zhuangzi, there are more than 10 million shi of grain stored in it! All these grains were donated to the court as military rations, so the nephew of the second emperor can barely reduce his guilt by one ten thousandth!"
All the civil and military officials in the court took a deep breath!
What does the second prince want to do with storing so much grain
The second prince was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but now he was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back: How did Uncle Jin know about his two granaries!
He couldn't help but look up at the emperor in the Jinluan Palace.
The way his father looked at him was indeed different!
Is this doubting what he wants to do with so much food
But his two granaries definitely don't have as much grain as ten million stones!
It’s only more than nine million stones!
"Father, my minister's granary definitely doesn't have that much food! That means..."
Nuan Nuan nodded and accepted his words: "Yeah, not that much, just over nine million stones!"
"..."
Does Princess Hui'an have a sympathies with her
The second prince could hardly hide the panic in his eyes. How did she know so clearly!
How did Nuan Nuan and Nalan Jinnian know about it? Of course it was because Nuan Nuan was building an outer city in the mines and then hired some villagers to work. There was a person who worked as a day laborer in the second prince's village and accidentally discovered that the village had a lot of grain stored in it. .
He just mentioned it accidentally to someone.
Then Nuan Nuan and Nalan Jinnian both heard about it a while ago, and then Nalan Jinnian sent someone to check it out!
The second prince was really scared to death this time!
The eldest family has just gone to guard the imperial mausoleum!
He doesn't want to guard the imperial mausoleum!
"Father, those grains were saved by my son in the past few years. I was just about to say that I would donate millions of stones of grain to make rations for the soldiers on the battlefield! I haven't had time to say this yet! "
The second prince regretted so much that he just said one thing and lost millions of stones of food!
He glanced at Lao San, who immediately became a Buddha. Sure enough, too much words lead to mistakes!
Wen Nuan smiled: "The second prince said the word "donate" wrong! As a prince, he enjoys the love of all people and possesses such supreme dignity! The little money and food should be spent, so it is considered a donation! Give everything you have It's right to let the soldiers plan to fight! Besides, it's not you who caused King Huainan's rebellion? Whatever you do is what you should do, right? Your Majesty, are you right?"
Second Prince: "......"
This Princess Hui'an, has he offended her
What does it mean that King Huainan's rebellion was caused by him
It's none of his business that King Huainan rebels!
Does he still want the King of Huainan to rebel
"Princess Hui'an, what do you mean?"
Nalan Jinnian looked over with a cold look: "Isn't it?"
The emperor had no expression on his face and looked at the second prince coldly and said: "That's enough! Princess Hui'an is absolutely right! Everything the second prince has was given by the people and protected by the soldiers! It's not enough to give everything he has. That’s too much! Besides, you can’t escape responsibility for King Huainan’s rebellion! The ten million stones of grain will be handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs tomorrow to be received by Marquis Shichang, and then shipped to the front line! If the follow-up is not enough, I will ask you again!"
Second Prince: "..."
dying! Where did he get ten million stones!
The emperor was originally worried about who would do this, but he also knew that no one would be willing to do it.
But the matter of food, grass and wound medicine is really too important, and you must not just point it out to just one person!
The emperor thought of this expedition. Princess Hui'an and her seventeenth brother would go out together. Lin Tingxuan was the commander. They were either the daughters of Shichanghou or the sons-in-law of Shichanghou. It would be most appropriate to leave this matter to Shichanghou. !
He must be extremely conscientious!
The emperor no longer had the responsibility of appointing officials to quell the rebellion.
He didn't care that the second prince's eyes were darkening.
The emperor said loudly: "Marquis Shichang obeys your orders. I will appoint you as a food and grass transporter. You, Mr. Liang from the Ministry of War, and your two beloved ministers will be responsible for the preparation and escort of this food and grass transportation!"
Wen Jiarui and Mr. Liang quickly came out: "I will live up to the emperor's trust!"
"OK!"
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
I checked online and found that 100,000 soldiers need to eat 600,000 shi of grain a month, so hundreds of thousands of soldiers and 10 million shi of grain will not last long~
