Chapter 518: Surrender

But when he passed, His Royal Highness the Fourth Highness happened to leave the mansion and enter the palace, and he didn't know when he would return, and his current matter was a hundred thousand urgent, and he couldn't delay, couldn't, thought about it, and had to find the door of the Hou Mansion of China.

But he never thought that the eldest lady was not as good as him to reply, and the first sentence when she opened her mouth was to get to the point, and immediately had more respect for Gu Yuqing in her heart, Li Deshun lifted the cotton clothes in her hand forward, handed them to Gu Yuqing, and said: "The eldest lady will know when she dismantles the cotton clothes." ”

is a rough man in the army, and he has never been particular about speaking.

Gu Yuqing didn't care, Ji Xiang Ruyi had served in the Hou Mansion of China for many years, and he had seen a lot, his face did not move, Ji Xiang took the cotton clothes in Li Deshun's hand and looked at Gu Yuqing.

But seeing that Gu Yuqing nodded and didn't need scissors, Jixiang sent the cotton clothes to his mouth, lowered his head and bit it, biting off a cotton thread on it, and then pulling out the cotton thread from the head along the bitten thread, and the sleeve that was sealed revealed the filling inside.

The off-white flocculent is clearly not cotton.

Born in Jiangmen, whether it is his grandfather's family or his own family, Gu Yuqing has been accustomed to hearing stories about the hardships of soldiers on the battlefield since he was a child, and he knows that every inch of territory under his feet is paved with the blood of many soldiers.

Most unexpectedly, some people gamble their lives and deaths for their own interests.

My heart twitched hard, and I felt that my eyes were pierced by the filler.

Stretched out his hand to take the cotton coat, pulled out a wisp of filler, and saw what Gu Yuqing was holding in his hand at a glance, Ji Xiang Ruyi couldn't help but blurt out, "God, it's Luhua!"

Reeds are filled with cotton wool.

Don't say that it is the icy and snowy Liaodong, even if it is the Central Plains, the cold and frozen Layue day, wearing such cotton clothes, will be frozen to death.

The hand pinching the wisp of reed trembled involuntarily, and the bone joints were blue and white because of the force.

Li Deshun looked at Gu Yuqing's dignified face for a moment, and his heart moved, he thought that he would explain to the eldest lady the dangers of this reed flower filling cotton wool, but now it seems that he is too careful.

Pointing to the reed flower, Li Deshun said: "The reed flower is filled with cotton wool, and that's it, what's even more odious is that among the materials sent to the battlefield in Liaodong, not all cotton clothes have been replaced with reed flowers, I have carefully investigated, but all the clothes of people with military ranks, which are filled with real cotton, Gu Houye's share, which is filled with velvet, but only ordinary soldiers are used to drop the bag with reed flowers." ”

What Li Deshun said, how could Gu Yuqing not understand.

Cotton clothes that are divided into three, six, nine and so on......

What the other party wants is not to freeze these soldiers to death, but to ask them to mutiniate on the battlefield and start civil strife.

What a vicious scheme!

Once the civil strife is launched, there will definitely be someone secretly ordering the imperial court at that time, and the news will be sent to the emperor, but I am afraid that it will be said that Gu Zhen's defeat before the war is unpopular, and it will cause great chaos in the army.

When the time comes, in order to find out, the emperor will naturally send someone to investigate, and it has always been an unwritten practice in our dynasty that civilian officials entering the military camp must have Shang Fang's sword by their side.

At that time, he only needs one sentence of Gu Zhen to make a mess to be able to cut first and then play.

Thinking about this, his heart was like a needle prick, and Gu Yuqing's eyes were like a poisonous light, as cold as autumn frost.

Although these are just her conjectures, if these cotton clothes are really the means of Xiao Yi and Gongsun Mu, then this conjecture will be eight or nine points true.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Yuqing pinched the cotton clothes that seemed to be hot, met Li Deshun's eyes, and said, "When will this batch of materials be sent?"

Li Deshun originally thought that Gu Yuqing opened his mouth to ask who was the villain of these cotton clothes, but he also made some analysis and speculation about this, and was brewing in his heart, how to express it, but when he heard Gu Yuqing's words, he couldn't help but be stunned, and opened his mouth and said: "Before the afternoon of August 16, it will be pulled out on the hour, and I will personally escort it." ”

Gu Yuqing didn't ask, and he answered it smoothly.

After Li De finished speaking, Gu Yuqing turned his head to the steward of Shangfuzhong, "From now on, you will be looking for people to rush to make cotton clothes day and night, and you must be the thickest, warmest, and most durable. ”

When the housekeeper heard this, he immediately understood what Gu Yuqing meant, she was going to use the private money of the Hou Mansion of China to temporarily supplement this batch of materials, and immediately wrinkled her eyebrows and thought for a moment, and said: "On our side, everyone has more than half of them, and if you want to cover up this matter, you will have to reduce it by half." ”

That is, up to a quarter......

The breath condensed in his chest, wisps of it, and slowly spit it out, a quarter is a quarter, better than nothing, and immediately loosened his clenched fist, Gu Yuqing ordered: "For the rest, I'll find a way." Go ahead and spend as much money as you want, and pay it out of your account, but just remember a little bit to hide it from people's eyes. ”

With Lu Jiuzheng's batch of gold bricks, only one or two of them are used, which is enough, and the money is not needed at the moment, let alone when!

The steward received the order and immediately turned his head and left.

Li Deshun's eyes were full of shock and looked at Gu Yuqing.

I have heard that this daughter of Gu Hou Ye is different, and when I see it today, I really kill and decide, and there are some women who rode horses and danced swords.

Something so big happened, she, a boudoir woman, was not panicked in shock, but calm as a mountain.

It is the first time to think of how to solve it.

At present, although it is important to investigate the real culprit, what is more important than the investigation of the real culprit is the hearts of the soldiers of Liaodong.

If people's hearts are not chaotic, Hou Ye can sit firmly in the military tent and scold Fang Xuan.

The thoughts in his heart flickered, and Li Deshun looked at Gu Yuqing's gaze again, and he had more respect.

After the housekeeper left, Gu Yuqing looked directly at Li Deshun and said, "Don't worry, by the afternoon of August 16, I will definitely send a lot of cotton clothes over." ”

Gu Yuqing's voice was like a clear spring, which made Li Deshun's restless heart suddenly calm down, and his breath became even.

For some reason, he was convinced of her words, just as he believed in Gu Zhen's words.

"Okay! It's just that on the day of the opening, these materials must be personally inspected by the Third Highness before they can set off. Li Deshun reminded Gu Yuqing.

Gu Yuqing's eyes shimmered slightly.

Xiao Yi wants to test it himself? Suddenly smiled in his heart, afraid that he would not test it!

"You only follow the normal procedure to escort Fengning's batch of supplies, as for the ones I prepared, they will be exchanged quietly at the Zhending Station, and it will not affect any of your progress. Gu Yuqing said.

Li Deshun looked at Gu Yuqing steadily, only to feel that the woman in front of him who had just passed the ceremony, under the shadow of the branches and leaves, she was as delicate as a fairy in a painting, but every word and deed was full of great momentum, which made him willing to be convinced.
