Chapter 165: Check it out to the end
The sun rose high and exuded an invincible coldness, and the cold wind that blew all night was forced back to the nest by this cold arrogance, and occasionally a few individuals were dissatisfied to form a fist-sized vortex and shout.
Standing in the crowd, Mu Chenmo looked at the emaciated young man on horseback, the black fur hat, the dark gray cotton jacket, the fluffy leggings, how could he still have the demonic appearance when he first met.
With two bags of buns in his hand, Qi Yu squeezed in front of Mu Chenmo, took one out of his arms and handed it to her.
But Mu Chenmo's attention was all on the horseback man, and he didn't see it at all, Qi Yu followed her gaze that didn't know whether to appreciate or be pleased, and he was so angry that his hand holding the bun began to tremble.
Stuffed the bun into Mu Chenmo's mouth: "Look at what, eat the bun." ”
Glancing at Qi Yu, Mu Chenmo didn't take a bite of his hand, and looked at the returning team again.
"Envious." Qi Yu saw that Mu Chenmo's gaze did not move with the leader, so he balanced it slightly.
"Nope." Mu Chenmo shook his head and looked at Qi Yu: "If that thing is true, let those who make some deceptions eat and dress with the soldiers, and see if they can get their conscience back." ”
"That's a good idea."
Mu Chenmo gave Qi Yu a roll of his eyes: "If I don't think so, you can also agree." ”
Looking at the five hundred people running fast, Mu Chenmo sighed in his heart, when spring came, they were still recruits, and in half a year, they all grew up as real soldiers.
And she recovered her daughterhood, married someone and became a princess.
Someone took out another bun from his arms: "Hurry up and eat, or it will be cold." ”
"Have you eaten?"
Hearing this, Qi Yu didn't know whether to be moved or angry, and only after these people disappeared did he remember to ask himself if he had eaten.
Mu Chenmo handed the bun in his hand to Qi Yu's mouth: "As soon as you look at your expression, you know that you haven't eaten it, so let's eat it together." ”
Watching the lively crowd disperse, the two of them stood on the street, and ate one bite at a time.
The sound of the horse's hooves turning alarmed the two who were eating buns, and Gu Han jumped off the horse.
"I just thought it was wrong, but I didn't expect it to be the two of you."
Xiao Qiang scratched his head and walked over from not far away, looking at Gu Han puzzled, interrupting the prince and the general's love for eating steamed buns.
Choking the remaining half of the bun in his hand into Qi Yu's mouth, Mu Chenmo beat Gu Han's chest.
"Yes, there is a general, a few more military exploits, we can see each other in the court."
Holding his chest, Gu Han glanced at Qi Yu: "General Mu, it's funny, but I'm here for that." ”
Mu Chenmo nodded, listening to them start talking about business, Qi Yu had to hold back no matter how angry he was, his eyes staring at Gu Han and chewing the bun in his mouth with a hideous face.
Several people quickly returned to the county office, Xiaoqiang stood at the door, and Gu Han told Mu Chenmo and Qi Yu about the uniforms.
"That is, only ordinary soldiers' uniforms are adulterated."
Gu Han nodded: "Their methods are very clever, and they are also very evenly distributed, one of the two sets is adulterated, and the other is real." ”
Mu Chenmo and Qi Yu glanced at each other, saying this, everyone from Li Meng to the quartermaster knew about it, or this has formed a law, and it has always been like this.
By donating silver, Mu Chenmo and Yang Shilang specially pulled a relationship, and because Mu Chenmo had resisted the decree to match his son's marriage, she gave her a look at the military supply account.
The money is all paid down, if Yang Shilang is not greedy for ink, who would have the courage to take profits from this.
"Where's the grain and grass?" Qi Yu opened his mouth, saw Gu Han nodded, and asked again, "Does Li Meng know?" ”
Gu Han nodded again, and Mu Chenmo slapped the table: "Go to the main tent." ”
"General Mu, if you don't give in, the soldiers may have to be adulterated in both sets."
Mu Chenmo looked back at Gu Han, there was a dead silence in the room, and Mu Chenmo clenched his fists and gurgled very loudly.
Gu Han sighed and then spoke: "If I guess correctly, this is already an unwritten rule, and presumably this is the case with the soldiers and soldiers guarding everywhere. ”
"I didn't expect my Daqi officials to be so high." Qi Yu slammed his fist on the table.
Seeing Gu Han and Xiaoqiang away, Mu Chenmo frowned and looked at Qi Yu, and the words he was holding in his heart didn't know how to say it.
A country is rotting from the roots, how to save it, even if they arrest this group of corrupt officials, is the next batch not as good as this batch, at least their food appearance is not too ugly.
left a way for the frontier soldiers to live, is this also the reason why the generals can't bear to expose it, in this state of passivity and burnout, it is sad that there will be people like Yang Xuan.
Hold Qi Yu's cold hand: "Qi Yu, let's go back to Wei County, and return to Beijing after arranging the follow-up to the locust plague." ”
"No, I want to investigate, I want to investigate thoroughly, since I know it, I can't ignore it, it is up to us to tell my father how much to do, and holding the handle is equivalent to choking their throats."
Meng got up: "I'll go find Li Meng, Mo'er, you go to the quartermaster camp to get their accounts, we don't have much time, the emperor and the four emperor brothers are estimated to be coming soon." ”
The water surface of the river rippled in circles, the beautifully carved vermilion painting boat sang and danced, and the fourth prince Qi Rui sat in the cabin and raised the wine glass in his hand.
"You are all water conservancy experts, and I thank you for the people who have suffered from the floods."
There were three people on the left and right sides of the cabin, and they got up and raised their wine glasses: "The four princes are worried about the country and the people, and the lower officials must do their best to control the floods in the south." ”
The six of them raised their heads at the same time and drank the wine in their hands.
"The people of the south, please do it." Qi Rui got up and drank it in one gulp.
After three rounds of pushing the cup and changing the wine, the beautiful singers sang and danced, but the six people secretly complained in their hearts, the floods in the south understood that everyone knew what was going on, if there was no disaster and no difficulty, where would the money come from.
I don't know what kind of wind the four princes smoked to take care of this mess, can this matter be managed, those people are the same as the Emperor of the Earth, if you don't know the six brothers, you have to explain there.
Qi Rui's eyes turned with the graceful figure of the dancer, he didn't expect the emperor to be so happy, and praised Qi Yu again and again in the court.
The strategists around him also praised the beauty of Qi Yu and Mu Chenmo's moves, which not only won a good reputation among the people, but also impressed the emperor.
suggested that he also adopt this method, otherwise when Qi Yu and Mu Chenmo were busy with Wei County, they would go to deal with the flood, I am afraid that the emperor's heart would be completely biased towards Qi Yu.
Qi Rui thought about it for three days and decided to adopt this proposal, and then he selected six people with real talents and real learning.
Yumen Pass, in the backyard of the county government, Li Meng found Mu Chenmo: "Big niece, let's talk about our uncle and nephew." ”
"Uncle Li, wait a minute, it'll be sewn up soon." Mu Chenmo sewed the last three stitches and handed the cotton clothes to Aunt Li.
asked the little soldier to pour two cups of hot water, and Mu Chenmo sat opposite Li Meng.
Shaking his head and sighing for a while, Li Meng spoke: "You tell the Seventh Prince, don't check, if you continue to check, your road ahead will be more difficult." ”
"Uncle Li, what do you mean by that?" Mu Chenmo frowned.
Li Meng held the teacup in his hand: "Do you know why your father died?" ”
"If it's too rigid, it's broken." Mu Chenmo was shocked, and saw Li Meng with a wry smile on his face: "The water is too deep and there are too many people involved, if you don't get on their boat, there will be a dead end, how good it would be for you and the Seventh Prince to be an idle person and live a safe life." ”
He didn't want to go along with the moths, but he couldn't, in order to keep the soldiers fed and clothed, he learned to wag his tail and beg for mercy and learn to negotiate terms with them.
He subsidized all the silver he received to the orphans who died in battle, he was a rough man who didn't understand these bends and bends, and he only understood it after decades of bumps and bumps.
The Seventh Prince found him, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he understood what these two people wanted to do, but it was a grasshopper shaking the tree, and I am afraid that when the time came, I don't know how the two of them died.
Mu Chenmo lowered his head and hung his shoulders, and he hadn't woken up from Li Meng's words.
Li Meng stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder: "Don't let the prince follow your father's old path." ”
Raising his head, Mu Chenmo saw Li Meng's slightly curved back.
Li Meng, you are wrong, tending to the flames will only fuel their arrogance, look at the people and look at the soldiers, do you really have no selfishness?
If it weren't for your appeasement, would those people have so much power?
This is the world of the Qi family, as a member of the royal family, will Qi Yu not eradicate it if he knows that there is such a tumor?
