Emperor concubine and phoenix

Chapter 237
Hearing this, Duanmu Feng glanced at her silently, but didn't speak.

Looking at the entire celestial dynasty, no one dared to talk to the emperor like this, except Nan Si.

But even for Nan Si, what she said was too offensive.

As a loyal subject, Duanmu Feng has the obligation to correct her words and deeds, so that she can maintain due respect and etiquette in front of the emperor.

But Nan Si seemed to be in a bad mood today.Even if Duanmu Feng was not afraid, he knew that he should avoid her sharpness.

Messing up with a bad-tempered woman usually means trouble.

Messing up with a woman with a bad temper and great ability will represent even greater trouble.

If the woman she offends has a bad temper and high status, and is also the emperor's treasure, it will probably mean unimaginable trouble.

Duanmu Feng was very busy training soldiers in the barracks every day, so he didn't have time to cause unnecessary troubles for himself.

So he was sensibly silent.

After being silent for a while, I almost forgot my purpose of coming to see the emperor.

Until Cang Hanyu said lightly: "What's the matter?"

Duanmu Feng raised his head, his eyebrows were serious, he took out a memorial from his sleeve and submitted it to the royal case.

"This is a report that someone just sent to the minister." Duanmu Feng said, "The soldiers of Jiulian City, which is adjacent to the western border, have not received food, grass and military pay for two months. General Tan can only find a way to collect it himself. Grain and grass, during the period, I wrote six notes and ordered people to send them back to Beijing, but all the news disappeared without a trace."

After a pause, his tone became more serious: "For the time being, the border is stable, and the soldiers can save food and grass. Three meals a day can be changed to two meals a day, and rice can also be changed to porridge. But under long-term starvation , the physical strength of the soldiers will be greatly depleted, and if there is a sudden war at the border at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable."

After the voice fell, there was a deathly silence in Zichen Hall.

After Cang Hanyu listened, his handsome face was covered with a thick layer of frost, and his voice was as cold as iron: "Is this true?"

"The person who sent the letter on a quick horse is still in the minister's house at this time, and told the whole story to the minister, and the minister thinks what he said should be true." Duanmu Feng lowered his eyes, "Does the Lord want to call him to ask?"

Cang Han Yu's eyes were gloomy, and he was silent for a moment, "Fu Wei."

A robust figure in black appeared, kneeling silently on the ground.

"Send six masters from the dark pavilion to the border gate to find out about the grain and grass. Within half a month, I will find out the truth."

Fu Wei took the lead: "Yes."

After the words fell, he immediately got up and left, and disappeared in the hall in a blink of an eye.

Duanmu Feng stood silently.

"You and Rong Chuxiu immediately transfer the grain from each granary, and transport it to the border in batches first." Cang Hanyu said coldly, "The first batch of grain must be delivered within three days."

Duanmu Feng knelt down on one knee, and respectfully accepted the order: "I obey the order."

"Don't say anything about this matter for the time being." Cang Hanyu said coldly, "I want to know who is dying, even dare to move food and grass."

Since he wanted to die, he was naturally happy to do so.

"The minister obeys the order."

After the words fell, Duanmu Feng turned around and left quickly.

Nan Si quietly closed her eyes, a thoughtful expression appeared on her quiet face.

Cang Hanyu put down the ink brush in his hand, and looked towards the direction of the palace door expressionlessly, with a cold gleam in his eyes: "Si'er, has the emperor been too negligent of his duty?"

Nan Si was silent for a moment, and her tone was as indifferent as water: "It is indeed negligence."

As an emperor, let the frontier soldiers who defended the country starve, what else can you say except dereliction of duty?
