Chapter 258: I don't know etiquette

Liu Zhongqing kept his eyes closed, as if everything that happened outside had nothing to do with him.

"Just because Liu Thirteen brings the word 'willow', His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not kill him."

Liu Shisan is not a blood relative of the Liu family, it was Liu Chen who rescued an orphan on the black market.

While Liu Zhongqing was working hard to expand his power in the court, Liu Chen was also secretly buying people on the rivers and lakes for his own use.

Many orphans on the black market will be sent to the ring, if they win, they will survive, if they lose, they will die in the ring.

Liu 13 is one such orphan.

And the reason why Liu Thirteen is called Thirteen is because he has won thirteen games in a row, which is an unprecedented record in the black market.

But in this fourteenth game, when Liu 13 was sent up, the blood on his body had not yet dried, and he was obviously forcibly sent to the ring.

But he was not afraid, and even had a little excitement in his eyes.

It was this look that made Liu Chen take a fancy to him, Liu Chen was only fourteen years old at the time, three years older than Liu Thirteen.

After that, he bought Thirteen from the black market, clothed him, fed him, and treated him as his sibling.

Later, Liu Chen was crowned a general in a battle, which was inseparable from Liu Shisan's hard work.

This time, Liu Chen will send Liu 13 to pick up the prince, firstly, to ensure the safety of the prince, and secondly, to take the opportunity to tell his father that everything is ready.

Li Yunxing would not kill him, and killed the Liu family's cronies in this barren mountain and wilderness.

has no name and no points, and leaves a handle for himself, Li Yunxing is not a person who would do such a stupid thing.

Sure enough, Li Yunxing didn't fluctuate too much when he saw Liu Shisan.

Just grasped some of the key points in the other party's words.

"Two days?" Li Yunxing frowned slightly, it was too late for two days.

"Speed up!"

With that, he turned over and spurred the horses forward.

Liu Shisan waited for the prince to walk away before standing up from the ground.

At this time, Liu Zhongqing was sitting, slowly embellishing behind, and when he saw Liu Shisan, he first nodded, signaling that he was doing more decently.

Liu Shisan is not usually a person who talks much, and after bowing to Liu Zhongqing, he immediately turned over and got on the horse.

hurriedly went to follow the footsteps of the prince, worried that the prince would be angry with the general because of this incident.

And Liu Zhongqing lifted the curtain, glanced at Li Yunxing's back, and saw his hurried look, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a light smile.

Hehe, it's just a hairy child, even if it's smart, but after all, it's just a milky doll!

Not long after, the group had caught up with the footsteps of the army in the southeast battalion, because Li Yunxing sent someone to report the news in advance, and Liu Chen personally led the troops to greet them.

"The minister greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Zaifu." Liu Chen lifted his robe and knelt down.

Li Yunxing glanced at him and asked in a cold voice, "This palace asked you to send troops, why did it take so long?" ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as the prince arrived, a big hat was buttoned down, and Rao is Liu Chen also felt that his cheeks were a little hot.

What's more, this is in front of the barracks of the southeast battalion, and the eyes of countless soldiers are on them, and their communication must be cautious, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public.

Liu Chen suppressed the anger in his chest, and said patiently: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, the reason why the minister has not sent troops for a long time is because the grain and grass in the southeast camp are not enough. ”

"Not enough food and grass?" Li Yunxing squinted his eyes, and his sharp eyes shot at Liu Chen. "Grain and grass are the most important weapons of the country, how can it be that just a few days are not enough? What's more, the geographical location of the southeast battalion is particularly good, easy to attack and difficult to defend, and there are several cities nearby, how can there be no food supply? ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, the minister also knows the weight of grain and grass, but the granary in the southeast army has been empty for half a year, and many officers and soldiers have run out of cooking, and the minister only has a small batch of materials on his side, where can he support the rectification of the southeast army?" Liu Chen sighed.

"Ridiculous!" Li Yunxing rebuked sharply, "The southeastern army is stationed on the southeast coast, and the maritime trade is quite abundant, the products are rich, and the grain is abundant, how can it be that the grain has been out of food for half a year?" ”

Liu Chen had already thought of an excuse for this matter.

It's just that he didn't expect the prince to be so aggressive, and his fierce momentum completely locked him in, making him unable to argue.

"Your Highness, the southeast camp is indeed short of food and grass, please forgive your sins." Liu Zhongqing suddenly spoke up to block this thunder for Liu Chen, and then bowed down and saluted Li Yunxing.

Li Yunxing said coldly: "Liu Zaifu has been in the capital for a long time, so he also knows a lot about the affairs of this southeast military camp?" ”

The prince's eyes at this time were like sharp blades, turning from Liu Chen to Liu Zhongqing, as if he wanted to pierce them.

Liu Zhongqing is the head of the Wenchen, and Liu Chen is the general of the garrison.

No matter how powerful Liu Zhongqing is in the court, he cannot meddle in the affairs of the local military camp, let alone affect the operation of the military camp.

A chill surged in Liu Zhongqing's heart, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted: "The minister only hears about it occasionally, and he doesn't dare to speculate at will, and he hopes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will see it." ”

Li Yunxing disdained to talk nonsense with him again: "Since I just heard about it, then please ask Liu Zaifu to keep what you heard in your heart for the time being, and dare to talk in front of this palace if there is no evidence?" ”

At this time, Rao is Liu Chen could perceive that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's words were really heart-wrenching.

If the prince is allowed to continue, I am afraid that his father will also be implicated.

Liu Chen can only stand up at this time. Thinking about the current war, Li Yunxing didn't dare to really do anything to himself, and he had a little more confidence in his heart.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, how can Liu Zaifu know the movements of the southeast camp, everything is due to the poor preparation of the last general and the failure to anticipate the signs of a big war in advance, which will lead to a shortage of food and grass."

"The last general will know his mistake, and I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will punish him, but the lack of food and grass is a big taboo, and if it causes the people to mutiny, it will outweigh the losses."

Liu Chen's words seemed reasonable, but in fact, both inside and outside put the blame on Li Yunxing's head.

His sentence of lack of food and grass attracted the people to mutiny, and the people's mutiny was not a joke, once this kind of thing broke out, the emperor would be affected.

Li Yunxing's face was gloomy, Liu Chen was indeed Liu Zhongqing's son, even if he was there in person, he was still so stubborn.

Li Yunxing stared at Liu Chen for a moment, and suddenly smiled.

"Hahaha, that's a funny wording." He snorted, his eyes mocking.

Liu Chen's heart jumped, and he was overwhelmed by Li Yunxing's momentum.

But after thinking about it, this is his territory, could it be that Li Yunxing still dares to kill himself?

Thinking of this, Liu Chen's attitude hardened a little, and calmly retorted: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister is just talking about things, after all, the minister has been in the army all the year round, and he is always a little unfamiliar with this courtesy of the monarch and the minister. If you are offended, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for forgiveness. ”
