Chapter 448 Lin Langtian Wants to Steal the Military Pay

Xuanyuan He gritted his teeth, and said, "Prince Murong, it was the general who gave the order, but it was all because Gu Changgeng and the others were too despicable..."

Before the words were finished, Murong Jing's eyes froze, and he pulled out Long Yi's saber with his backhand and pressed it against Xuanyuan He's neck.

Xuanyuan He turned pale with fright, "Prince Murong, what are you doing!"

Murong Jing sneered, "General Xuanyuan, you apologize with death for such a mistake on the battlefield, death is not a pity!"

"This can't be entirely blamed on General Ben, it's..."

Murong Jing asked in a cold voice: "Last night, did Long Yi tell you to stop shooting arrows, lest there would be fraud?"

Xuanyuan He said: "... yes."

"Why don't you listen?"

Xuanyuan He's face turned pale and green, and he couldn't utter a single word.

Murong Jing said sarcastically: "Because he is just a small servant, you don't take his words seriously at all, you think that Xuanjia Ying is extremely stupid, and you are still complacent when you do such a deceitful thing, You don’t know how to be played like a monkey by others, do you?”

"I..." Xuanyuanhe's face was very ugly after being told, he gritted his teeth and said, "Even so, this general is also a member of the Bada tribe, and the punishment is for the leader, and it's not up to Prince Murong to be so lenient." !"

The upward arc of Murong Jing's mouth became more and more obvious, his eyes narrowed slightly, and with some strength in his hand, the sword edge drew a blood mark on Xuanyuan He's neck, and bright red blood gushed out.

Xuanyuan He covered his neck and said angrily: "Murong Jing! You..."

Murong Jing threw away the long sword in his hand, turned a blind eye to Xuanyuan He's anger, and said sarcastically: "Then General Xuanyuan, go and explain what happened last night to your leader of the Bada tribe."

Xuanyuan He clutched his bloody neck and walked away angrily.

As soon as Xuanyuan He left, Murong Jing's eyes were gloomy, and he shattered the wooden case in front of him with his palm, and the wooden case was broken into scattered pieces and scattered all over the place.

"idiot!"

Long Yiyi: "His Royal Highness, calm down."

"If it weren't for a fool like him, Qinghe City would have won the battle with a [-]-[-] chance. Now..." Murong Jing regretted that he didn't directly kill Xuanyuanhe with that sword just now.

After Murong Jing calmed down a bit, Long Yi asked: "His Royal Highness, the leader of the Bada tribe let you go there yesterday, but what is the important matter to discuss with you?"

Murong Jing sneered: "The leader of the Bada tribe and Gu said that the previously agreed agreement needs to be changed. If Beiming Kingdom is captured, he can give a few more cities to Xichu, but the premise is that Xichu not only needs to provide food and grass, We need to send troops to help."

"What?! But didn't we agree at the beginning that if the Bada tribe hadn't invaded the Jiangnan border of Beiming Kingdom, wouldn't our West Chu send troops?"

Murong Jing smiled speculatively, his eyes under the mask were unfathomable, and he remained silent.

Long Yi asked tentatively: "Your Highness, what are your plans?"

Murong Jing remained expressionless, and said: "If Qinghe City is destroyed, the agreement between Xichu and the Bada tribe will be void!"

Long Yi was secretly surprised, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's decision will inevitably cause a lot of losses to the West Chu Kingdom, but for the Bada tribe, they will definitely lose in the battle with the Beiming Kingdom after being abandoned by the West Chu Kingdom.

……

The news of Gu Changgeng's victory in Qinghe City came back to the capital city. After the emperor heard about it, Long Yan was overjoyed, and praised Gu Changgeng repeatedly at the court, and he was full of praise.

The second prince Qin Ziyan saw him, from the beginning to the end he thought that Gu Changgeng was under his command, so he hurriedly nodded in agreement.

The officials in the imperial court praised Gu Changgeng endlessly, which was completely different from all kinds of doubts when Gu Changgeng led the army to the frontier.

at night.

Yonghe officer.

Concubine Shu closed her eyes and rested on the bed, opened her eyes suddenly, waved her hand, and said: "This palace is going to rest, everyone should step back, no one is allowed to come in and disturb this palace's rest."

"Yes, ma'am."

All the maids and eunuchs retreated, closed the door of the Hall of Eternal Harmony, and a figure in a red robe came out from behind the screen.

Lin Langtian walked up to Concubine Shu, held her soft hand, she frowned, and flung it away in annoyance, "I have already heard about today's incident, if we continue like this, we will wait for Gu Changgeng's triumphant return." When he comes back, the emperor will definitely confer him an official title, not to mention whether he will find out the truth about the bloodbath of the general's mansion back then, he is the second prince's party, this is enough to make us burnt out."

She complained: "I blame you for always being restrained before. If Gu Changgeng was eliminated early, there would be so many troubles."

Lin Langtian kissed the side of Concubine Qinshu's face, and comforted softly: "Xue'er, don't worry, I won't let Gu Changgeng return in triumph."

Concubine Shu looked at him puzzled, "Why are you so sure that you won't let Gu Changgeng return in triumph?"

Lin Langtian's eyes flashed cold, and he said: "If there is no military salary, how can this battle continue?"

"what do you mean……"

"Half a month later, I need to send military pay to the frontier. I have arranged for people to intercept the military pay on the way and snatch the army pay. Without the military pay, the treasury is not sufficient. I am afraid that this battle will have to end, so why not Gu Changgeng?" Come to triumph? The emperor will not confer titles on him."

Concubine Shu said worriedly: "This is the military salary, which is quite a lot. If it is robbed, the emperor will be furious and will definitely send someone to investigate severely. If it is found out, don't we..."

"Don't worry, I have already made arrangements. We will know the route of delivering the military salary in advance. Among the people who deliver the military salary, our people will also be placed. When they leave the capital city, they will fight with people disguised as local bandits. If the emperor wanted to find out about the army's salaries, he would not be able to find out about us."

"I still feel that this method is too risky."

Lin Langtian said: "It's a little risky to rob the army's salary, but this move is not only to prevent Gu Changgeng's triumphant return, but to do big things in the future, it will inevitably require money. Taking this army's salary can be regarded as a precautionary measure."

After thinking about it, Concubine Shu felt that Lin Langtian's words were not unreasonable. Although it was a bit risky, it was a double win.

Concubine Shu said: "Just do as you say, be careful, don't leave any clues."

Lin Langtian kissed Concubine Qinshu's eyebrows, and said softly: "Don't worry, it won't happen."

……

Because of the successive news of success in the frontier, the emperor was refreshed and in a happy mood, and he was very interested in ordering people to prepare to go to the palace for autumn hunting.

Concubine Shu held thoughts for the emperor, and asked softly: "Your Majesty, which sister do you want to take with you when you go to Autumn Hunting this time?"

The emperor hugged Concubine Shu in front of him, pinched her chin and lifted it up, and said: "Of course I can't do without you by my side, I have to take you with me wherever I go..."

Concubine Shu gave a coquettish smile, and pushed the emperor's chest to welcome but refused, "Your Majesty, you are making fun of my concubines again."

"As for the others, let Concubine Mei follow along, and..." the emperor asked Li Quan, "Who was the concubine who testified for Miss San in the Hall of Supreme Harmony last time?"

Li Quandao: "Back to the emperor, he is a talented person."

"Then take Rou Cairen with you."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Concubine Shu's eyes dimmed, the emperor had mentioned this soft talent twice before, but she just found a reason to tell her about it, but she didn't expect to think about it until now.
