The prince is five and a half years old, and he is reclaiming land and becoming a group favorite.

Chapter 423: Magistrate Ke delivers a quick report
After hearing what His Highness said, Xie Changshi took out another account book and said, "Your Highness, take a look, what is this?"

Gu Yuzhi hurriedly put his head over to take a look, then rubbed his eyes vigorously and said in disbelief: "Cotton!"

He grabbed Xie Changshi's hand and shook it vigorously: "Xie Changshi! Brother Huang said that all the cotton grown by the Ministry of Revenue has been arranged to be delivered!"

He jumped up suddenly, grabbed Xie Changshi's hand and walked out: "Let's go, let's go see the cotton!"

Recently, all the duck and goose down that Mobei can collect has been collected, and the cotton catkins are almost used, but the cotton-padded jackets for the soldiers are still far short.

Although he knew there was no way to solve this kind of thing, Gu Yuzhi still blamed himself a little.

I blame myself if I had walked to the iron mines and discovered cotton in my first year in Mobei, and I wouldn't be like now.

Who would have thought that his royal brother would actually send him cotton!

This news made him happier than giving him the golden reward and fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River!
Gu Yuzhi ran and jumped all the way, and soon reached the backyard. The guard was unloading the car. When he saw him coming, he stopped and saluted.

Gu Yuzhi waved his hand: "Where is the cotton? Let me see."

The guard smiled and pointed to the carriages behind them, with bulging sacks piled on them.

Gu Yuzhi patted it hard and the cotton was stuffed tightly. Then he raised his hand happily and said, "Send it to the textile factory quickly."

With the new cotton, the textile mills began sewing intensively again.

On the last day of October, the first snow finally fell.

Gu Yuzhi stood at the door of the study and looked at the falling snowflakes. He couldn't help shaking his shoulders: "It's a bit cold!"

Aunt Xu quickly put a cloak on him: "Your Highness, please go inside first. Look at the weather, it's going to be rainy for a while."

Gu Yuzhi shook his head: "Mingli, go find Xie Changshi, Zhang Shiwei and Qin Yuanjian. I have to go to Xinliang."

He tapped his chest lightly, always feeling a little stuffy, as if something bad was going to happen.

If something really happened in Quanzhou, Xinliang would be able to respond quickly.

Just as Mingli was about to go down, the butler hurriedly walked in: "Your Highness!"

He was in such a hurry to report that he didn't notice that his feet were slippery, and he suddenly fell down the stairs, and stars suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"housekeeper!"

Gu Yuzhi hurriedly took two steps forward: "Hurry and help the housekeeper up!"

The housekeeper spat out a mouthful of blood: "Your Highness, Magistrate Ke has sent a quick report that something strange has been discovered in Beidi!"

After shouting this sentence, the housekeeper coughed violently, tilted his head and fell down after a while. The quick report from the whole state was still well protected in his arms.

Gu Yuzhi's expression changed greatly. He took the quick report and went to the study: "Ming Li, go and call someone! Aunt Xu, ask the doctor to treat the housekeeper, and gather all the guards in the house."

Several people took action quickly, and Gu Yuzhi opened the bulletin. It simply wrote one sentence. The scouts detected changes in the Beidi Army and intended to mass attack on the border of our country.

He sighed with a puffed face: "What is supposed to come will come."

Shu Xiaohan and Wen Xiuzhu looked at each other, and they couldn't hide their worries. When they looked at each other, they kept winking at each other, asking the other party to think of something nice to say to make Gu Yuzhi happy. Fortunately, Xie Changshi and others came in not long after. They read the quick report one by one and then sat down thoughtfully.

When everyone came to accompany the young highness to Mobei, they knew that such an event would happen, and they felt that they had been prepared for it.

But when this day really came, while they were relieved, they were also a little uneasy.

Who doesn't want to live a peaceful life?
But someone has to do these things!

After a long silence, Xie Changshi spoke first.

He stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Highness, I think Beidi's invasion now is actually a good thing!"

Gu Yuzhi exclaimed, his eyes blank: "Why?"

He puffed up his face: "Jingxiang has not returned to its peak, the Mobei Army has not returned to its peak, and the cotton-padded jackets and down vests are not enough..."

The more Gu Yuzhi thought about it, the more he felt that he was not ready for anything. His little face suddenly wrinkled up again, and he kept walking around with his hands behind his back: "General Lu must be making defensive preparations. We need to leave for Quanzhou as soon as possible." Can!"

Seeing that he was uneasy, Xie Changshi hurriedly comforted him: "Your Highness, please listen to me first."

Gu Yuzhi just said "oh" and blinked his big eyes with an urging look.

Only then did Xie Changshi clear his throat: "The emperor's reward has only arrived in Mobei not long ago. At this time, His Highness's reputation is rising."

The others looked at each other and their faces looked much better.

Yes, the emperor's reward spread throughout the Sang Dynasty, detailing His Highness's contribution to the pacification of Jiangnan. At this time, His Highness was gaining fame in the army, and His Highness and the soldiers of the Mobei Army were advancing and retreating together. , the Mobei Army will definitely be able to display its extraordinary strength!
Gu Yuzhi had obviously thought of this and was finally able to sit quietly, but he still felt that the soldiers were a little tired: "But it's so cold..."

"Your Highness!" The smile on Xie Changshi's face grew stronger. "You are always worried that you are not good enough and don't have enough cotton and down jackets. So I thought, if you have cotton jackets, you don't need down jackets. If you give them separately, the quantity is enough." ”

Gu Yuzhi's eyes lit up and he patted it hard with his little hand: "Yes, yes, it can still be like this."

He chuckled: "In this way, at least all the soldiers can keep warmer than before!"

Anyway, let’s spend this year safely!
Guard Zhang nodded and said, "Xie Changshi is still smart."

Gu Yuzhi nodded his head in agreement: "Of course, Xie Changshi is super smart!"

As he spoke, he gave Xie Changshi a thumbs up with an expression of pride.

Although Xie Changshi knew that His Highness's compliments were sincere and was often praised by him, every time His Highness used such a sincere tone and eyes, he felt a little unbearable and his heartbeat could not help but speed up.

He concealed his deep breathing by stroking his beard. After calming down, he continued: "Besides, the news about His Highness having people sew down jackets and cotton-padded jackets for the soldiers has spread. The soldiers are only grateful to His Highness. Naturally, I will do everything possible to protect His Highness and Mobei!"

Gu Yuzhi puffed up his face and turned to look at Mr. Huo: "Mr. Huo, do you have any good ideas?"

Mr. Huo glanced at Xie Changshi, and with the look on his face that he was about to suffer, he nodded solemnly: "I do have a risky method..."

"Mr. Huo..."

As soon as Xie Changshi spoke, His Highness said in surprise: "What kind of risky method is it? Mr. Huo just said it doesn't matter!"
