Chapter 740 Squeeze Dry

The household servant walked over awkwardly and said in a low voice: "Mrs. Wu, the lower official has received an errand to collect silk and horses from various mansions. ”

Mrs. Wu said lightly: "If I were Lord Wu, I would rather go and have a fight with the people of the Jin Kingdom, than such a low-level door-to-door begging for things." ”

Wu Shilang lowered his head, "Madam, I am also the main battle." ”

Mrs. Wu sneered, "The main battle? Then why don't you say this in the court? ”

"You people just see that the emperor doesn't want to fight, so you either choose to be silent or cater to the emperor."

Wu Shilang lowered his head and smiled bitterly.

As an official in the court, how can he not care about the emperor's thoughts? Not everyone has the identity and confidence of the grandfather of the country!

Mrs. Wu waved her hand, "Forget it, I don't bother to tell you." ”

"You all just remember that you will always be the sinners of Da Chu!"

Wu Shilang's face twitched, but he didn't dare to refute Mrs. Wu.

Then Mrs. Wu nodded to Gu Yunjiao, and Gu Yunjiao instructed Ah Yun, "Take out all the horses of the soldiers and hand them over to Lord Wu." ”

Then he instructed Steward Lin, "You go and open the storeroom, and all the silk and silk in it will be moved out." ”

"Also, a few carriages in the house, and the horses that pulled the carts were also taken away for them."

When Wu Shilang left, Mrs. Wu was worried, "Grandpa Guo left a letter saying that he would run away after assassinating Yan Zhang, and there is no news at this time, I don't know-" How is life and death?

Gu Yunjiao comforted: "Mother, rest assured, Grandpa Guo's martial arts are strong, even if the assassination fails, it should not be difficult to retreat." ”

"It may just be difficult to get back to the city for a while."

Mrs. Wu shook her head and didn't say anything, but her brows were still tightly locked.

Half a month passed, the imperial court emptied the treasury and the inner treasury, plus the looted from the people, a total of 600,000 taels of gold, 9 million taels of silver, more than 200,000 silk silks, and 10,000 horses and mules.

The horses and mules were not in order, and the horses of the Terracotta Division and the Inspection Division were requisitioned.

Early this morning, the head of the household department took several servants of the household department, carrying the emperor's edict of ceding the three towns with a jade seal in his arms, and went out of the city.

When the procession reached the gates, it suddenly stopped.

Sitting in the sedan chair, he saw the team suddenly stop and hurriedly asked, "What's going on in front?" Is it that the gates of the city have not been opened? ”

A voice suddenly came to mind outside, "Xu Shangshu, get out of the palace!" ”

Xu Shangshu was startled, and listened to the little girl outside: "My lord, it was the eldest princess who stopped in front." ”

Xu Shangshu reluctantly lifted the sedan curtain and got down from the sedan chair.

He saw the eldest princess riding on a horse in the distance, majestic, and his heart was panicked, and he hurriedly trotted over.

The eldest princess glared at Xu Shangshu condescendingly.

Xu Shangshu hurriedly squeezed out a dry smile, "The eldest princess is this?" ”

The eldest princess said coldly, "Bring the edict and the map!" ”

Xu Shangshu opened his mouth wide, "This, what does the eldest prince want to do with this?" ”

The eldest princess narrowed her eyes, "Bring it, otherwise I will rob it myself." ”

Xu Shangshu sighed and whispered a word to the little servant, and the little servant quickly moved the sedan chair to bring out a burden.

The eldest princess's maid took it, opened it and looked at it, and nodded at her.

The eldest princess snorted, turned her horse's head, and walked away with a whip.

Xu Shangshu was stunned on the side of the road for a while, and then said, "Let's go." ”

The chariots and horses went out of the city, and the soldiers on the city walls were waiting for them.

The convoy soon arrived at the Jin military camp a few miles away from the city.
