Chapter 181: Raising War Horses
After a long time of noisy and shouting, if it weren't for a group of people wearing official uniforms, they would have really thought they were at the vegetable market.
At this time, Prime Minister Wen looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, and secretly said in his heart.
Now that the Mu family is raising war horses in the imperial city, in his opinion, this is an indisputable capital crime, so he mobilized all the ministers around him.
But after arguing for a long time, Mu Lan blew up all the chess pieces he had buried alone.
The eldest prince, who is close to the Mu family, didn't say anything at the moment.
Mu Chan also didn't move, Prime Minister Wen felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up, he saw the emperor looking at him with a smile on his face.
"Oops!"
Prime Minister Wen hurriedly lowered his head, his heart was like a drum, why did the emperor look at him like this?
What went wrong?
"Don't make any noise!"
Under Prime Minister Wen's fear, the emperor finally spoke.
"The Mu family's matter of raising war horses, I am now clear, and I have sent King Jing to investigate this matter strictly, and the Mu family will no longer have to go to court during this time, and there will be time to enter the palace more, and the little princess will reach the day of the evil year."
After speaking, the emperor waved his hand and directly made people retreat.
Manchu Wenwu's eyes widened, and two words popped out of his head.
"That's it?"
Mu Lan was frightened, and after he came out, he pulled his second brother and didn't let go.
"Mu Chan, what's wrong with the emperor? I've raised so many war horses, why doesn't he react at all? Isn't this going to settle accounts with us? Is this some kind of calm before the waves? β
Mu Lan was about to be scared to death, and when he went back, he couldn't help but pull his father to cry.
"Dad, I'm done now, I didn't think about keeping those war horses, I've been looking for buyers for them all this time, and even thinking about sending them to the barracks, I didn't want to swallow them privately, but now I'm ginseng, what should I do?"
General Mu was happily preparing for the New Year's Eve for his little granddaughter.
Such an eldest son, who is a famous major general outside, has become a big crying bag at home, how upset he looks.
"You get out of the way of the old man, don't you see the things for your nephew and daughter to get rid of the evil year?"
Eliminating evil is a major event after the birth of a child in Yaoguang Kingdom, and it is used to bless the child with a safe life and no illness or disaster.
But to say that it is very important, it seems that there is no need to prepare too much, it is a family reunion, giving gifts to the child, and suppressing the child's life.
As soon as he thought of this, Mu Lan stopped crying again.
"Oh, I seem to have forgotten, today I also said that we will have time to enter the palace more often, and prepare for the little princess to exorcise the evil year!"
"That's it, don't hurry up and prepare!"
was scolded by his father for two sentences, Mu Lan went back to prepare things aggrievedly, and only after he came out did he think that he didn't want to talk about war horses? How did it get out again?
At this time, Mu Chan came to his father's study and also sent a gift for the evil year that he had prepared.
"Father, the son's side is ready, but let's really not tell the eldest brother, is this a plan we have set up? I think my eldest brother is going to cry with fear. β
Old General Mu snorted coldly, this kid is also as careful as a hair on the battlefield, why is he so stupid now?
It seems that he can't stay in the imperial city all the time, find an opportunity to simply kick to the frontier and let him fight.
"Don't worry about him, if you tell him, if he leaks his mouth, won't it be all in vain for us to arrange so many things? The Wanchao Festival is about to begin, if the house is not cleaned, how to welcome guests? β
At this time, the emperor summoned the three princes in the imperial study, their faces were as black as the bottom of a pot, and the air pressure was so low that everyone did not dare to breathe.
"I really underestimate Prime Minister Wen, today in the court, look at those ministers, how many people are jumping inside and out, it seems that I am the Son of Heaven above this court, but in fact, they all belong to him Prime Minister Wen!"
It's no wonder that the emperor is so angry, he thought that Prime Minister Wen's minions, he had almost mastered it, but he didn't expect a thing to blow up, and it would jump out so much!
However, the second prince knows very well that I am afraid that this matter is not over yet.
"The people we checked before my father were just Prime Minister Wen's protΓ©gΓ©s, and these people are easy to check, and this wave of explosions today, although there are many people, but the official position is still low, I'm afraid the real big fish is still behind."
The eldest prince and the third prince couldn't help but shudder at this time, but the idea was put forward by the second prince and arranged it with one hand.
Prime Minister Wen stepped on the trap unconsciously, and was jealous of his father, if this second child used the means on the two of them, it would be really scary.
"King Jing is right, this matter should be investigated, especially in the military camp, the people around Mu Lan, the Ten Thousand Dynasties will start soon, and there will definitely be small countries that are dissatisfied, and if there is another war, Mu Lan must not make a mistake."
The second prince received this order, and then the eldest prince and the third prince also went to work according to the plan.
This time, the second prince strictly investigated the affairs of the army, saying that he wanted to investigate Mu Lan's breeding of war horses and embezzlement of public funds, but in fact, he turned over all the officials in the barracks.
For a while, in the barracks, everyone who had a little name was panicked, for fear of finding out all the things they were hiding.
"What's this doing lately? Didn't you say that our general raised a few war horses and was investigated? Why are we even looking it up? As far as our family is concerned, what kind of horses can we raise? β
"Who knows? But why doesn't His Majesty the Emperor listen to people's explanations? Didn't he say that General Mu could raise war horses? Why is it back on its word now? β
"General Mu can raise war horses, but there are too many of them, 100 horses, this can form a vanguard cavalry."
A group of people gathered together to chat, which frightened a young general beside Mu Lan.
He hurriedly found Mu Lan to admit his mistake, and knelt on the ground with a plop.
"Young General, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have instigated you to buy a war horse, what should I do now? You've embezzled the money you used to replace the shoes, and if you find out, it will hurt the whole family, right? β
Mu Lan frowned, and the whole person looked a little surprised.
"When did I say that I had misappropriated the money from which the farriers were replaced?"
Now it's the turn of this little lieutenant to be dumbfounded, didn't his money come from?
The recent replacement of the farrier has indeed been postponed, and the Mu family did not give him silver, so where did he come from with such a large sum of silver?
"Young General, where did you get such a large sum of silver?"
"It's from the concubine, it's still my sister!"
