The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 333: The prince took the order to quell the chaos

Chapter 333 The Crown Prince leads the order to quell the chaos

Du Wan heard Du Qian mention the rebels last year.

It has been more than half a year since she returned to the capital, and she almost forgot about it.

Todays dinner will be eaten in the main courtyard.

After the meal, the family sat together drinking tea and chatting.

Du Prince Consort talked about the affairs in the court. Because of this matter, he had to go to the Yamen on duty a few days in advance. "Because of this matter, the emperor held court today. I was not in the city, but I missed today's morning court."

The eldest princess took over the conversation, "Missing it is not necessarily a bad thing."

"Mother is right." Du Qian knew without guessing that the emperor would be furious at the court meeting this morning. "It will be better for my father to show up again when the emperor calms down a little, so that he can be scolded less."

Du Wan blinked, "Uncle has a good temper."

Du Huma and the eldest princess:

Du Qian:

There are four members of the family, but Du Wan is the only one who has never been scolded.

So, the three people silently ignored her words and pretended not to hear them.

Du Wan didn't care whether they were talking or not. She opened her mouth and asked nonchalantly, "There's going to be a war. Who do you think uncle will send to quell the rebellion? Why didn't uncle send someone before the rebels had a strong presence?" ? Do you have to wait until now that they have occupied three counties to send troops out of face problems? And - "

"younger sister!"

Du Qian interrupted Du Wan.

Du Huima said: "It wasn't that the emperor didn't want to send troops in the past, it was because he didn't have the money."

You wont send troops if you dont have money? Du Wan didnt quite believe this reason.

Du Huima added: "If you need a lot of money to fight, you also need food and grass."

Father, isnt it the most taboo thing to rebel against a party?

But if we send out troops, there will be even more chaos.

There is another way of saying it. Du Wan really didnt know.

Du Qian pressed his sister's head and said, "You idiot, what are you thinking about? My father checked the accounts last year and knows the financial situation of the Qin Kingdom best."

"Yes, the treasury didn't even have a tael of silver at that time." Du Fuma said.

What a tragedy!

The national treasury is empty, and the east wall is demolished to repair the west wall. It is terrible to see.

The daily expenses of maintaining the palace depended on the emperor's private treasury.

The barracks outside the capital are most likely maintained by generals from major aristocratic families.

Fighting a war will cost at least millions of silver taels, and food and grass are even more of a big problem. In recent years, the national grain output has been very low, and the price of grain outside has doubled several times. To gather grain at this time will undoubtedly make people's lives worse.

So a group of ministers did not recommend sending troops.

The emperor simply has no money and no confidence.

Du Huima said: "We will send troops this time because there is money in the national treasury."

Didnt you say there was no food and grass?

Theres always a squeeze.

How can I say it so inconsistently? Du Wan rolled her eyes.

Du Consort smiled quietly, "I used to be concerned about it, but now I can't. If I continue to ignore it, the situation will only become more serious, which is not a good thing."

Oh, oh. Du Wan nodded in realization.

Du Qian patted her on the shoulder and said, "You are a girl, why are you so worried about this?"

I dont care, Ill just ask.

Are you worried about Prince Pei? Du Qian asked, raising his eyebrows.

Who is worried about him? Who is he?

Ha! Du Qian didnt believe it.

Du Wan puffed up her chest and looked straight at Du Qian, "Brother, look at my frank eyes." "Hahaha..."

Du Qian couldn't help laughing loudly.

Du Prince Consort and the eldest princess also laughed.

Du Wan puffed up her cheeks and glanced sideways at the three people, pretending to be angry, hoping that they would accept her threat and stop teasing her. But the more she acted like this, the more the three of them laughed happily.

In the end, even she laughed...

Du Wan believed that the affairs of the court had nothing to do with her and were far away from her.

The rebels are in the southwest, which is a famous barbaric land with a vast land, sparsely populated areas, and numerous mountains. It is not easy for people who are not familiar with the terrain to quell the rebellious party. There was a quarrel in the main hall for several days before the candidate to lead the army was finally decided.

It is a character that no one has thought ofPei Hao.

In recent days, Du Wan has been writing and painting in his quiet room.

No one knew what she was writing or drawing, they all thought she was practicing calligraphy. Only Ning Qin, who was grinding the ink, knew that his master had recently had a whim, saying that he wanted to farm to support his family and make a fortune.

At this moment, I am thinking about various plans again.

Luoqi came in from the outer door and said, "Please report to the Princess, the Chief of Guard Zhuang wants to see you."

Invite him in. Du Wan put down the pen and looked at the door.

Zhuang Congzheng strode in from the outside, bowed respectfully to Du Wan, and told the gossip he heard outside.

Du Wan was very surprised, "Prince Pei sent troops? How could it be his turn?"

Zhuang Cong couldn't answer these words. He was quiet for a long time and said tentatively: "Perhaps Prince Pei is a peerless talent and has extraordinary talents?"

Du Wan felt that the guy in front of him was even more talented.

On the other hand, Pei Hao, who was standing outside the door, happened to hear these words and the corners of his mouth raised three points.

Du Wan noticed someone outside the door, "Who? Come in!"

"It's me." Pei Hao walked into the quiet room calmly.

Du Wan glanced sideways at Zhuang Cong, "You're not good at asking for news. It's too late. I just heard the news and the real owners came to the door."

Zhuang Cong:

After the news spread outside, he came back to report it. In fact, it was not too late, it was only an hour or two late.

Pei Hao came and Zhuang Cong withdrew.

Then, Pei Hao saw Ning Qin and Luo Qi again, "You also go out, I have something to say to your master alone."

Ningqin and Luoqi both looked at Du Wan.

Du Wan nodded, "Go out and guard outside."

Yes, Princess.

The two men stepped back.

Pei Hao walked around the desk and stood behind Du Wan, looking at what she was writing on the table with his peach blossom eyes.

Eh, is it something he cant understand?

Pei Hao bent down and asked, "What is the princess writing?"

"Nothing, just write something that only I can understand." Du Wan had no intention of revealing her own affairs, "By the way, I heard that you are going to lead troops to counter the rebellion?"

"Yeah." Pei Hao lifted his clothes and sat down on the edge of the chair.

Sitting in this posture, you are closest to her. So close that he could smell the fragrance of her clothes.

Du Wan didn't mind, and raised her head to look at him, "Tell me, why is it your turn to fight? There are some veterans in the court, such as Nanyang Bo, Dingbei Hou, and your father Zhen Duke?"

Yeah, Im quite weird too.

Pei Hao really didn't expect that the emperor would suddenly appoint him as commander-in-chief.

For this reason, he was promoted three levels in a row and became a general. The most strange thing is that he retained his original official position. There has never been an example of one person holding two positions in the Qin Kingdom.

Pei Hao narrowed his eyes and thought deeply, "Today in the court, Xie Qi took the initiative to stand up and ask the emperor for an order to quell the rebellion. Almost none of the ministers in the court said a word. When everyone thought that the emperor would agree..."
