Chapter 399: I can't wait to wear it back to protect him
During the meal, Xue asked "Why do you have so many treasures?" ”
Even if he is the crown prince, it will not be, the treasure troves in the palace are not as rich as his treasures.
Pei Lin scooped a bowl of soup for her and slowly explained the origin of those treasures.
What is the fastest way to accumulate wealth? War! Or how to talk about war money.
Ninety percent of Pei Lian's treasures were obtained through wars.
He is only twenty-one years old, but his military career has been nearly ten years, and since he was ten years old, he has followed several uncles of the Huo family to various military camps on the northwest border.
It took him a full decade to start as a logistics soldier who picked up corpses, and gradually rose to the rank of commanding commander with a mountain of prestige, and the existence of the enemy was terrified.
During this period, he experienced no less than 100 large and small battles, although most of them were not provoked by him, but in the face of the enemy, he had only one purpose, that is, to fight until he was afraid, and he did not dare to do it again!
The Azolone Country in the Western Desert, the Iron Quinoa Tribe in the Northern Grasslands, and the Snow Corpse Country in the Snow Fields...... These nations and tribes, savage and strong, have great ambitions, and always covet the rich and vast land of Daqi.
In order not to be harassed by them repeatedly, Pei Lin had already hit their lair more than once, and by the way, he had taken back a large amount of treasures and materials.
War was not what he wanted, but over the years, he had gained a lot through war, and the mountains of treasures were only one of the insignificant.
Listening to Pei Lin tell about the battles, Xue Wu's blood was boiling, proud and distressed.
I grabbed a piece of goose meat and fed it to his mouth personally, "My boyfriend is amazing!" ”
Pei Lin happily ate the goose meat.
Xue Wu thought of a question, the son of the daughter can't sit down, Pei Lian, as the prince and the prince of the country, shouldn't fight on the front line, after all, the sword has no eyes, if he is seriously injured and can't be saved, then the matter is not a big deal?
But why did he stay at the border for ten years?
"Because I am more dangerous in the palace, many people want my life, including the emperor, and once they almost succeeded." Pei Lian's voice was flat.
Xue Wu's heart tightened, thinking that he was in danger at a young age, and she couldn't wait to travel to protect him when he was a child and give him candy to eat.
But this is obviously impossible.
She held his hand, "I will protect you in the future, and no one will want your life!" ”
Pei Lian held her hand and put it on her face, looking at her gaze so soft that it could drip water, "Okay, my life belongs to my sister-in-law, and no one can take it away except you." ”
Xue Wu: "So, the Huo family brought you to the border?" ”
"Well, and I was not the crown prince at that time, and then the emperor was forced by my foreign family to make me the crown prince, but from that day on, he never wanted to get rid of me so as to make way for his beloved second son."
"But he must not have thought that the second prince was not his child, and when he learned the truth, he would definitely be angry." Xue Wu gloated.
Pei Lin also laughed.

Pei Lin gave Yuan Huai three days to find out who poisoned the emperor, in fact, he already knew who this person was, but he still needed time to collect evidence.
At the same time, it is also to startle the snake and force the rabbit to jump off the wall, so as to expose more flaws.
Sure enough, it was only a day, and rumors spread outside, all of which were rumors that "the prince poisoned and assassinated the emperor so that he could sit on the throne".
Anyone with a little brain knows that the prince is now in power, and the emperor is terminally ill and dying, it is a matter of time before the prince ascends the throne, so why bother to poison the emperor in one fell swoop?
But the people don't care about this, and they all have noses and eyes when they talk about it secretly, as if they have seen it with their own eyes, and the more it spreads, the more outrageous it becomes.
Pei Lin did not forcibly curb the spread of rumors, because rumors are such a thing, the more forbidden people are, the stronger their desire to explore, and it cannot be stopped, unless he uses iron-blooded means to suppress it.
But that will inevitably lose people's hearts, and perhaps this is what the people behind the scenes want to see.
Pei Lin adopted the method of drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle.
At the morning conference of the dynasty, Yushi Chu Jianglan wrote a letter to impeach King Rui and denounced his crimes: "King Rui Pei Heng poisoned and assassinated the emperor, without a father, filial piety and disloyalty!" Forge the holy decree, deceive the king, and rebel! Spreading rumors and framing the prince is a heinous crime! ”
Chu Jianglan's full official position is called "Zuo Yan (because of the same signature) Imperial History", the official rank of the fourth grade, although the official position is not high, but as a speech official, what he does is to "rectify the impeachment of hundreds of divisions", and in some specific cases, he can even hear about it.
It can be said that it is a professional thorn + bar spirit.
And Chu Jianglan is a leader in this industry, known as "Chu Maoshi", saying that he is a smelly and hard person, does not know how to turn around and compromise, is very uncomfortable, and often offends colleagues, but he still does his own thing and does not go along with others.
If other imperial histories catch the handle of an official, they usually consider weighing it in many ways, or find that official and solve the matter in private, just like some modern entertainment Vs, when they find out about a celebrity's scandal, they often don't send out the news as soon as possible, but will use it to blackmail the star.
If the celebrity is willing to pay, then the news will be pressed down on you, otherwise, Yuji will send out the news to resend a wave of traffic.
Those imperial histories are the same, called the eyes and ears of the emperor, but in fact, not all imperial histories will be impartial and do things wholeheartedly.
In short, the word is the first word.
But Chu Jianglan is biased, if he catches someone's handle, he has to poke it out, no matter how others threaten him, he will not let go and be accommodating.
The emperor likes such courtiers very much, which is also the reason why Chu Jianglan is very hated but can always stick to his post.
Now, this Lord Yushi of Zuo Du has aimed the finger at the fourth prince, King Rui.
Everyone was in an uproar, and the entire court exploded.
A considerable number of these ministers in the DPRK and China are staunch neutralists, that is, no matter how hard the princes fight, they don't care, anyway, as long as they are loyal to the one on the dragon chair.
Most of the remaining ones are princelings, but the other princes are not without supporters.
At this moment, King Rui's father-in-law, Sun Daoxun, the Qing of Dali Temple, came out to fight with Chu Jianglan.
"Chu Yushi, you can eat food indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense! How can you slander Lord Rui like this? ”
Chu Jianglan was not in a hurry: "What is Lord Sun doing in such a hurry to jump out?" If I dare to say that, there must be evidence. ”
Hearing the word "evidence", Sun Daoxun's heart jumped, and he subconsciously looked at King Rui, but saw that he looked calm, and there was no trace of panic on his face, so he couldn't help but feel relieved.
King Rui is so calm, which means that Chu Jianglan must be slandering him, right? Otherwise, how could he be so calm?
