Chapter 013: The King and the Prince

When the prince came to the imperial study, he never expected that Prime Minister Zhang had arrived, the prince saluted respectfully, and was about to explain, when the monarch asked straight to the point, "Where is the young man you brought back from Qianfeng City?"

The prince already understood in his heart that Prime Minister Zhang had already reported the incident to the monarch, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Monarch, in Chengyuan Village of Qianfeng City, the minister did bring back a young man, but there were wild people there, and the young man was ignorant, he didn't understand anything, he didn't know anything, so the minister moved his heart of compassion and left him in the mansion!"

Prime Minister Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince shouldn't know the laws of Yuanyue Kingdom, you are hiding prisoners like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public!"

The prince nodded, and said with a smile, "What the prime minister said is very true, thank you for the reminder, just because I came back from Qianfeng City, the ministers lost their troops and lost their generals, and I am cleaning up the army these days, and I forgot about it for a while, thanks to Prime Minister Zhang's reminder, this king ....."

"Where are the people now?" the monarch immediately interrupted the prince's words and asked coldly.

The prince hurriedly stepped forward, arched his hand, and said, "Back to the saint, I put it in the firewood room, and I was careless and negligent, and he escaped, please rest assured that the saint has sent Scar to find it, and after finding it, I will immediately send it to the military department!"

The monarch nodded slightly, and said expressionlessly, "Brother Wang, the widow knows that you are going to Qianfeng City, and the army will be lost, and the vitality will be greatly damaged, if you need to replenish the troops, the widow can allocate it to you from the military department, but all the seizures are handed over, this is a national decree!"

In the Kingdom of Yuanyue, from the prince to the general, everyone has their own army because of the size of their position, and each time they go out on an expedition, they can only bring their own army. His Royal Highness the Prince has long wanted to hand over this military power, he understands that although this system can promote their ability to lead troops, but the strength of the country is relatively weak, sometimes the army, the army has become the private property of those generals and ministers, His Royal Highness the Prince heard this, and said, "No, no, no, although the loss of 2,000 soldiers this time, it is not in the way, this king still has 8,000, and he can take care of the family!"

Prime Minister Zhang stepped forward with a smile and said, "How can this be done? You are a prince, why do you only have 8,000 soldiers? I think it is better to transfer 2,000 from the military department as a supplement!"

His Royal Highness the Prince smiled and said, "The soldiers of the military department belong to the king, and I have used two thousand, and the soldiers of the military department are two thousand, how can this be? I have eight thousand, and I can use them completely, and when I go on an expedition, it will not be too late for me to borrow them!"

The monarch nodded, his face stretched slightly, and said, "Brother Wang's compassion for the national situation is my luck and the example of all the people, since this is the case, the widow is no longer reluctant, okay, after finding the person who escaped, you will be sent to the military department!"

His Royal Highness the Prince nodded, retreated, and went back to the house, but Prime Minister Zhang Cheng said to the monarch, "Holy Lord, have you seen it, is the prince .....?"

The monarch looked at him and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Prime Minister Zhang said, "Let me ask the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, who doesn't want to have troops in hand, but the prince would rather not have those 2,000 soldiers for his ulterior secret, he should have had 20,000 soldiers, but he only needs 10,000, and now there are only 8,000 left, why is this?"

The monarch nodded and said, "Brother Wang has always advocated the state ownership of the army, in his opinion, whether it is a general or a civilian, only more than 100 people can be left to take care of the family, and he was reluctant to give him 10,000 troops at first, and then he reluctantly agreed!"

Prime Minister Zhang smiled coldly and said, "This is the most terrifying place, I heard that there are many capable people in the prince's army, and that scar can become a general, but he wants to commit himself to the prince and be an entourage, who knows what happened to his eight thousand soldiers? Why did he leave behind the people brought back from Qianfeng City?"

The monarch let out a long sigh and said, "Even if he has any ideas, what can he do with only 8,000 people? The people brought back from Qianfeng City, after he finds them, will definitely be sent to the military headquarters!"

Prime Minister Zhang also sighed and said, "I hope so!"

The prince hurried back to the house, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked, "Has the boy found it?"

Scar nodded and said, "He didn't run away, it was Princess Qiyun who took him to the corner to hide!"

At this moment, a slim girl walked out of the back hall, only to see black hair pouring down, a pair of silver hairpins still innocent, a pair of watery eyes inlaid on the white face, before he walked to his father, he shouted loudly, "Dad, where I hid, this is just a coincidence.....

The prince interrupted her and asked, "Qiyun, Hugh is messing around, what the hell is going on?"

Princess Qiyun pouted and said, "I saw Prime Minister Zhang Cheng and them go to the palace, I knew that there was nothing good, after hearing your conversation, I learned that Dad you hid someone in the firewood room, since it is the person you want, I naturally want to leave it, so I sneaked into the firewood room and hid that kid outside the wall, so that Zhang Chengxiang was empty!"

The prince glared at her, then took the tea and drank it, and Scar said, "Princess, this scares us to death, do you know the charge of hiding prisoners of war?"

Director Qiyun said solemnly, "The monarch and my father are brothers, even if we hide it privately, what can we do?"

"Presumptuous! How can you talk like that?" Suddenly, His Royal Highness the Prince became angry, "The monarch is the king of a country, not the brother of my Duanmu family, even if this king violates the law, he will treat everyone equally, how can you be so willful?"

Princess Qiyun shook her head and said, "What's wrong with the monarch? The monarch is also a human being, he is both the monarch and my uncle, it is impossible for him to be the monarch, even we don't recognize it!"

His Royal Highness said, "Just because he is your uncle, and because he is the king, we naturally have to set an example, how can we cause trouble for him?"

Princess Qiyun smiled and said, "In that case, Dad, why did you keep that kid? Aren't you knowing the law and breaking the law? Who is he? Why did Dad risk the world and detain him in the firewood room?"

Princess Qiyun's words made His Royal Highness speechless for a while, he didn't know why he left Mu Yang, but he just had an incomparably close feeling to this Mu Yang, or he wouldn't have brought it back in the ghost's sorrow, he knew better than anyone else in his heart that when he was sent to the military department, what would become of this kid, only God knows!

Scar said, "Princess, you don't know, if you send that kid to the military department, I don't know what will happen, whether that kid can survive or not, only God knows, His Royal Highness the prince is also for the sake of the kid!"

His Royal Highness the Prince didn't bother to pay attention to these trivial matters, put down the cup, and said, "Bring that young man here!

"What, Dad, are you really going to send that person to the military department?" asked Princess Qiyun.

The prince nodded helplessly, and squeezed out a few words from his mouth, "The monarch's order is embarrassing!"

Princess Qiyun shook her head and rushed, "I knew you were going to send it to the military department, why don't I really take it away!"
