A tree of peach blossoms pressing the prime minister

Chapter 216 No fate
Jiang Changjue sat on the main seat, looked at the civil and military officials in front of him, and said, "Since you all have the heart to protect the country, please ask the officials in charge of millet to allocate food and grass, so as to avoid insufficient supply of food and grass. In addition, setting up formations and collecting stones are all important. There is a shortage of manpower, if there are any good candidates, they can also be recommended."

Leng Fengchang and the others respectfully responded, presented the booklet to Chang Jue, and said: "Everyone on this list is available, but now the city gate is closed and guarded by His Highness' heavy soldiers. The grain reserves in the capital may not be enough. I also ask His Highness to give you a warrant so that the officials in charge of millet can dispatch grain and grass."

Jiang Changjue looked at him and frowned slightly: "How do I remember that the grain reserves in the capital should last at least half a month?"

"Where is half a month enough?" Leng Fengchang shook his head: "I think it's better to prepare enough."

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Changjue complied, and after giving the warrant, he asked the millet governor to hand over a key to the granary, so he could rest assured.

The officials were gone, Jiang Changjue held the key and thought about it for a while, then went to find his imperial sister.

Jiang Taohua was lying on the soft couch, clutching her stomach, her face was a little ugly.

"Sister Huang?" Jiang Changjue was taken aback for a moment, and hurried over to help her up: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Taohua frowned and said, "The stomach hurts badly for the past few days, maybe I ate something wrong."

"Has the doctor come?"

"I've been here, let me have a good life." With a forced smile, Taohua changed the subject: "You seem to have something wrong?"

Jiang Changjue nodded: "Just now Leng Fengchang asked me for a warrant to go out of the city, saying that the officials in charge of millet will dispatch grain and grass."

Eyes moved slightly, Taohua looked at him and asked: "Is there anything wrong?"

"It doesn't sound wrong." Chang Jue frowned: "But I feel that Leng Fengchang may not be sincerely surrendering."

Taohua smiled: "Then if he uses your warrant to go out this time, make a private deal with the people of Wei, and endanger Zhao Guo, what should you do?"

After a slight pause, Chang Jue said: "Cut the grass and root out."

"Okay." After clapping her hands, Tao Hua said, "Then do as you want."

"But." Jiang Changjue frowned: "What if I misunderstood?"

"Then you should make preparations in advance." Taohua took his hand and said seriously: "You must not have the heart to harm others, and you must have the heart to guard against others. Since you have already suspected Leng Fengchang's party, you must first Hold their handle, once they want to do something harmful to the Zhao country, you can stop them in the first place."

Jiang Changjue nodded, Leng Fengchang and his party were playing the banner of protecting the country, so they were more supported in the court, if they really did something traitorous, it would be a trick in itself.

Leng Fengchang also knew this, so everything was done in private. After taking out the warrant to leave the city, he sent his confidants to go out with the people who ruled the millet officials, and then took advantage of the night to go all the way to the Wei army camp. .

Shen Zaiye was reading a book when Zhan Lu suddenly lifted the curtain and came in and said, "Master, there are people from the capital asking to see you."

As he expected, Shen Zaiye pursed his lips, put down his book and said, "Please come in."

After a while, a man wearing a cloak came in, took his hat and saluted: "I'll welcome Zhang Tian, ​​a frequent visitor, to meet Prime Minister Shen."

With a slight smile, Shen Zaye nodded: "I must have something important to visit late at night."

"There is not much time, so I will get straight to the point." Zhang Tiandao: "Lord Fengchang holds Zhao's food and military supplies, and is trusted by the second prince. If the prime minister wants to capture the capital of Zhao, he should cooperate with Lord Fengchang. , is the fastest and best way."

"Oh?" Shen Zaiye looked at him thoughtfully: "What does Master Fengchang want?"

"It's very simple. Now that the Jiang family has fallen, there are only two heirs left who bear the name of murdering brothers and sisters. Lord Chang believes that once Zhao State becomes a vassal state of Great Wei, the country's surname should also be changed."

He wants to be the king?Shen Zaiye was stunned: "I have a lot of appetite."

"The Prime Minister will not suffer from this transaction." Zhang Tiandao: "As long as the Lord agrees and the two parties gain trust, Lord Fengchang is willing to send all the grain and grass that will be dispatched to hoard later to the military camp of Wei."

Food and grass is an important thing, if you don't give it to your own people, but give it to the enemy army, this Leng Fengchang is really not patriotic at all.

Shen Zaiye looked at the people in front of him and said: "This condition is indeed not a disadvantage for us. But what does Lord Fengchang want us to do in order to trust?"

Zhang Tian smiled, cupped his hands and said: "Everyone knows that the second princess of Zhao Guo is the prime minister's wife. Although the prime minister raised troops to attack Zhao, he already intended to break the mirror between husband and wife, but... no one can say for sure about feelings, so Lord Fengchang means that he wants to see what your attitude is towards the second princess."

If someone's husband and wife suddenly reconcile, wouldn't they kill the people in the middle?Nothing else matters, this must be figured out first.

"That's easy to say." Shen Zaiye said indifferently: "The second princess of your country fled back to Zhao without my permission. I have lost my relationship with her husband and wife, and now I am just a stranger. Road, I will not be scruples, I must get rid of it and hurry up!"

Zhang Tian looked at him and said, "The second princess still has your heir in her belly, don't you care?"

Xu Yangui next to her snorted softly: "Her belly is fake, it's just to deceive Prime Minister Shen so that she can leave Zhao country smoothly. Who cares about a fake belly?"

Shen Zaye was taken aback, looked back at him, nodded and said, "Exactly."

And this one?Zhang Tian paused, and carefully looked at the expression on Shen Zaiye's face.When it comes to the second princess, this person's eyes are full of displeasure and resentment, he really has no affection at all.Such a real expression should be impossible to pretend.

Believed in his heart, Zhang Tiangong handed over a token to him: "Since this is the case, Lord Fengchang will wait for the prime minister's good news, and hope for a good result."

"Don't worry." Shen Zaiye looked at him and said, "It's wise for you adults to choose me to cooperate, just wait and see."

"Okay, the little one will take my leave first." Zhang Tian cupped his hands, heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately went back to report the letter.

With a weird smile on his face, Shen Zaiye sat on the chair, pinched the token in his hand, and looked at it several times.

"Really want to cooperate?" Xu Yangui asked.

"Why not?" Shen Zaiye said with a smile: "Look at how sincere they are, they are willing to give me all the food and grass of Zhao Guo. In this way, is there still a need to fight this battle? People in the capital should also surrender .”

Xu Yangui sighed: "Although her belly is fake, but your friendship is real, if you really fight, you can never go back."

"En." Responding casually, Shen Zaiye's eyes were full of calculations, and he was so busy thinking about it that it took him a while to realize the first half of Xu Yangui's words.

"What did you just say?" He frowned: "Is the stomach fake?"

"I should have told you earlier, but you were not in good health at that time. Seeing that you have improved a lot after arriving here, it is better to tell you directly." Xu Yangui said in a low voice: "Jiang Taohua's belly is fake, she is not pregnant , just to make you not have the heart to chase her, so that you can leave Dawei smoothly."

After being dazed for a while, Shen Zai was arrogant: "She lied to me?"

Wasn't he the one who lied?This person kept saying that he didn't care, but he was so nervous in his heart, wouldn't it be a good weakness for others to pinch?
"Don't be too sad." Xu Yan replied: "She has her own difficulties, the child..."

"It's fine if you don't have children." Rubbing between his brows, Shen Zaiye said angrily, "But she has been away from Dawei for so long, why couldn't she tell me earlier?"

He's not the type to push for heirs, but when he thinks that his worries and nightmares for so long are all a scam, Shen Zaiye can't help feeling angry.There will be a day when he will be tricked into a circle by a woman!Ginger peach blossom is really good!

"You..." Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, Xu Yangui said, "You are in the field, you are really strange, don't you feel lost when the child is gone?"

"There's nothing to be disappointed about." Pursing his lips, he lowered his eyes and said, "It's a good thing not to have a child in the current situation. I don't have to worry so much anymore. I am afraid of her life when I do things." .”

"Huh?" Xu Yangui raised her eyebrows: "Why is it so easy to die while pregnant? Aren't there a lot of pregnant women in the world living well?"

Shen Zaiye fell silent. He couldn't tell Xu Yangui that he secretly read many books about women's pregnancy. The books said that pregnant women are prone to tire gas, miscarriage, and death after giving birth. So for several days in a row, he dreamed of Seeing Jiang Taohua lying in a pool of blood always wakes up in the middle of the night.

Now that he thought that she was not pregnant, he felt much more at ease.only……

He hates being cheated, this account, I'm afraid he will have to settle it with her!
Get up and go to the main tent, Mu Wuxia is still reading a book, when she looked up she saw Shen Zaiye said seriously: "Your Majesty, let's attack the city tomorrow."

Mu Wuxia: "..."

Yesterday I agreed to wait more, why did I change my mind again?Putting down the book, Mu Wuxia frowned and said, "The guards of Zhao Guo's capital are not yet in place. If we attack aggressively at this time, we can take the capital directly. However, the prime minister has made Sister Jiang anxious, has the prime minister considered the consequences?"

"The minister said that you should not worry about your personal feelings when you do big things." Shen Zaiye said solemnly: "The minister will not think about what she wants. A smart general should order an attack at the right time."

With a wave of his sleeves, Mu Wuxia lowered his head and said, "If you want to attack, then take your men to attack. I'm tired and need to rest."

Squinting his eyes, Shen Zaiye smiled: "Jiang Taohua has never shown any great favor to His Majesty, why does His Majesty value her so much?"

Mu Wuxia chuckled after holding the hand holding the book.

yeah, why?He didn't know why, but he just thought sister Jiang was a good person.He likes to see her smiling, and he doesn't want to see her sad and sad.

There was only a two-year gap between the age of 16 and the Nanwang Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion were only two streets away, but in this life, he and her had no fate.
