Yancheng.

The county watchman's house.

After seeing Li Rui come back, the officials of Beijun all rushed up.

One of the officials asked, "Li Taishou, did the prince say what he was going to do next?" ”

Now the officials of Beijun are very concerned about what kind of big moves the king of Bei will make after he comes to Beidi, and whether it will affect their jobs and interests.

Li Rui showed a hint of a smile, he raised his hand to stroke his beard, and then replied calmly: "The prince said to me, don't go to him if there is nothing important, everything is as usual in Beijun!" ”

Hearing this, the officials of North County instantly became extremely excited.

If this is the case, neither the power in their hands nor their interests will be harmed.

At this time, although they didn't say it, their thoughts were basically "Fortunately, the imperial court sent a waste prince to Beijun".

However, at this moment, a soldier from the county guard mansion ran in in a panic, he came to Li Rui, and whispered something.

After listening to the soldier's words, Li Rui frowned, and his face instantly sank.

Seeing Li Rui's face so ugly, an official hurriedly asked, "My lord, what happened?" ”

As soon as the official's words fell, Li Feng walked into the county guard's mansion.

Seeing that Li Rui and the other officials were there, Li Feng said with a smile: "Lord Li, your mansion is really lively today!" ”

Li Rui came back to his senses, hurriedly walked up and said, "Where, where." ”

"I don't know what General Li has to convey when he comes to my mansion?"

Li Feng directly took out the token of the North King, and then said: "The prince has an order, from today onwards, all military affairs in the North County will be taken over by me." ”

Hearing this, the officials in the courtyard instantly panicked.

The main reason why they dared to be unscrupulous and didn't take the king of the north to heart at all was because the army of the northern county was in the hands of the Taishou.

As soon as the king of the north arrived in the north county, he was going to take over the military affairs of the north county, what was this for?

The army is more sensitive, and the vassal king will inevitably do something when he controls the army.

Could it be that the king of the north is planning to use a knife against them?

Li Rui said at this time: "General Li, the prince has just arrived in Beijun, and he is not familiar with Beijun, I don't know what he asked you to take over military affairs for?" ”

Li Rui didn't think that it was the King of North who wanted to use the knife against the forces of Beijun, at least not in the short term, after all, he had just arrived in Beijun and had not yet gained a firm foothold in Beijun.

Besides, if the North King wants to maintain his rule in the North County, he still needs these officials and the major forces of the North County, and the North King should not do such a self-destructive thing even if he is not sensible.

Li Feng saw the worry in the hearts of Li Rui and the others, so he said directly: "Lord Li, I believe you should have heard the news that the prince was assassinated by the Blood Moon Tower on the road to the domain, right?" ”

Li Rui said: "This is nature. ”

Li Feng continued: "Since this is the case, then you should understand why the prince wants to control the military power, the prince does not want his personal safety to be in the hands of others. ”

Hearing Li Feng say this, Li Rui and the others reacted instantly.

Yes, the North King was assassinated on the way here, and he was relatively young, so he must have been frightened.

Maybe it was because he was afraid of death and that the army of the northern county would cause harm to him, so he would control the military power.

Li Feng continued: "Lord Li, you don't want to hand over military power, right? ”

"The prince has handed over all the affairs of the northern county to you, if the military power is still on you, then are you the prince, or is the king of the north the prince?"

Hearing Li Feng's words, cold sweat instantly broke out on Li Rui's forehead.

Indeed, if all the power of Beijun is in his hands and he has no one to restrict, I am afraid that it will not be long before the imperial court will send someone to trouble him.

Li Rui thought for a while, anyway, there were not many soldiers in Beijun, so it was better to simply hand them over directly to avoid getting into trouble for himself.

Thinking of this, Li Rui immediately took out the tiger talisman from his arms, "General Li, this is the tiger talisman that governs all the soldiers and horses in Beijun. ”

Then Li Rui said to a soldier in armor beside him: "Captain Wang, you take General Li to the barracks to have a look." ”

"Yes, sir."

Li Feng then followed the soldier to the barracks in Yancheng.

After Li Feng left, the officials behind Li Rui surrounded him.

"My lord, why did you give him the tiger talisman!"

"Yes, my lord, what if the prince has military power, what if he messes around?"

"My lord, what should we do now?"

……

Hearing the discussion of the officials, Li Rui said: "Don't worry, the military power should be in the hands of the prince, and it is normal for the prince to take back the military power." ”

"And you also heard Li Feng's words just now, the prince handed over all the affairs of Beijun to me, if I still control the military power, I am afraid that the prince can tolerate me, and the court will not be able to tolerate me."

Hearing Li Rui say this, some officials with fast brains instantly understood what Li Rui meant.

After all, there was a case in the Great Xia Dynasty where a certain prince monopolized power and imprisoned the vassal king.

Still, they have some concerns.

Once the king of the north has military power, it is equivalent to having a weapon in his hand, and it is easy to clean them up, and they will not dare to mess around like before.

Li Rui continued: "Okay, you each return to your respective jurisdictions. ”

"If the King of the North has any orders, I will inform you as soon as possible."

After hearing Li Rui's words, the officials had no choice but to leave the county guard mansion one after another.

……

A few days later.

North Palace.

Lu Chen was in the yard, looking at the soap made by his subordinates according to the soap making diagram, he picked up a piece and wiped it on a piece of dirty clothes and tried it.

Soon, the stains on the dirty clothes will be cleaned and cleaned.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the courtyard let out an incredible cry.

Chu Yuqin asked curiously: "Chen'er, where did you find the production method, this soap is so easy to use?" ”

Lu Chen replied with a smile while washing his hands: "Aunt Chu, if I say that this is what I thought of myself, do you believe it?" ”

Chu Yuqin raised her beautiful eyes, and said with a bit of yin and yang: "Chen'er has really grown up, and there are more and more secrets, and she hides everything from her aunt." ”

Mu Zixuan saw that the atmosphere seemed to be a little bad, so she hurriedly played a round and said, "Aunt Chu, this is indeed the method that the prince came up with. ”

In fact, Chu Yuqin's tone was only a little yin and yang, she was not angry at all in her heart, Chu Yuqin had long since planned to explore the secrets in Lu Chen's heart.

But then again, Chu Yuqin thought that Lu Chen had told herself everything before, but after getting married, he hid everything from herself, which made her feel a little sour in her heart.

At this time, Zhou Xiaoxiao changed the topic on the side and said, "Lord Wang, how are you going to sell this kind of soap?" ”

Lu Chen made it clear that he wanted to sell it before making soap, so Zhou Xiaoxiao was very curious about how the soap prince planned to price with such a strong cleaning effect.

Lu Chen thought for a moment, and then said, "Just sell it for three cents a piece." ”

Zhou Youyou, who was on Zhou Xiaoxiao's side, said in surprise: "So cheap? ”

Lu Chen said: "Small profits but quick turnover, it was originally used to replace bath beans, it can't be too expensive, too expensive no one buys it." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Chen's gaze fell on Mu Zixuan's body.

"Aifei, the soap industry will be handed over to you."

Mu Zixuan said with excitement on her face: "Don't worry, the concubine will definitely take care of the soap industry and fill the inner treasury of the palace as soon as possible." ”

As soon as Mu Zixuan finished speaking, her face suddenly confessed and she retched.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Youyou and Zhou Xiaoxiao hurriedly came to her side and helped her, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Quick...... Call the doctor! ”
