"It's just some lowly grass people, how can it be compared with those soldiers of our Dongyu Kingdom?" There was a faint smile in Taiwei Hong's eyes, and he looked calm, "The soldiers gallop on the battlefield to protect the family and the country, we must ensure the food and clothing of the soldiers, and let them eat well, so that we can have the strength to protect the country and protect Your Majesty." ”

His words were righteous and high-sounding, undoubtedly saying that he was looking for Zhang Tiezhu to come to this potato flour recipe and build a workshop.

The other ministers seconded Captain Hong's words, and they all said that he was right.

Ye Xiange pouted with a touch of coldness in his eyes, this treacherous old thing, and these wall grasses!

"Heh......" A sneer full of mockery overflowed from Ye Xiange's lips, only to see him take a step forward, and his sharp eyes swept straight towards Captain Hong, "Dare to ask Captain Hong, where do the soldiers who defend the country come from?" ”

"All over the world."

"So what did these soldiers from all over the world do before? From what family? ”

Taiwei Hong was stunned for a moment, did not speak, and his eyes sank slightly.

Prime Minister Zhu Mingxu said: "Some are children of the scholar clan, but most of them are farmers from the countryside. ”

"Yes, most of the soldiers are from the countryside, and they are the 'untouchables' that you Taiwei Hong looks down on!" Especially when he said the last two words, Ye Xiange accentuated his voice, "Every time there is a war, it is precisely because they charge in front to defend the country that you people with high-ranking officials can enjoy peace in this Shengjing City, listen to music and watch plays." Hanlian literature

Some of them joined the army to protect the land from foreign enemies, some to protect their wives and children, and some to serve the country loyally!

And who provided these soldiers with military rations? Or your so-called despised 'pariahs'! Without the hard work of farmers, where would firewood, rice, oil and salt come from? Could it be that you planted it with Taiwei Hong?

At that time, just after the flood, all the crops planted by the farmers were washed away, and if Zhang Tiezhu hadn't cultivated potato seedlings, I am afraid that more people would have starved to death! In this frontier battle, it is also fortunate that there is potato flour to satisfy the hunger of the soldiers, and they can eat a mouthful of hot noodle soup in the cold winter wax moon. And what did you, Captain Hong, do during this period? Singing and dancing every day, so unhappy! ”

Taiwei Hong was choked by Ye Xiange's words, and his face turned dark, and a trace of anger welled up in his eyes.

This damn Ye Xian Ge, it won't be good when he returns to the capital!

He gritted his teeth, and hurriedly looked at Xiao Yinglong on His Majesty Dan and explained: "Your Majesty, the old minister has never been singing and dancing every day, since the war, the old minister has been worried in his heart, he doesn't think about tea and dinner, and he can't sleep at night!" In recent days, Lao Chen has lost a lot of weight because he has too many thoughts in his heart! ”

"Clever words." Ye Xiange snorted coldly.

Taiwei Hong said angrily: "Ye Shizi, don't go too far!" I'm telling the truth, when have I ever been clever about it? ”

Ye Xiange hooked his lips: "Since you said that you are so worried that you can't think about tea and dinner, and you can't sleep at night, then why don't you open a warehouse to release grain when the flood occurs, and help the world?" The first batch of potatoes planted by Zhang Tiezhu at that time were donated free of charge to all the victims in Zhongyun County.

In this frontier war, the treasury was tight and weapons were insufficient, but I didn't see you donate a penny to the military department to make weapons or buy military rations, but Zhang Tiezhu invented potato flour and sold it to me at a low price. What you have done really makes me suspect that your loyalty to Your Majesty is merely lip service! ”
