The King of Wu's face darkened: "Have your soldiers received the orders?"
The Duke of Wei said solemnly, "Even the soldiers under your command in the past... are among them."
"Well done, well done, Prince Rui!" King Wu felt a sharp pain in his chest from hatred.
Duke Wei, not wanting to hide anything, added, "However, compared to the other soldiers, we have far fewer supplies. Only medicine and wound dressings are available."
"Although this is something that's essential for survival in the military, but..."
"But they will only hate me more. Why don't I send them something like what Prince Rui did?" King Wu directly responded to the Duke of Wei's words.
"Very well, so this is Prince Rui, waiting for me here!" King Wu slammed his fist on the table in anger.
The teacups on the table jingled, and the table itself shook a few times.
"Your Highness..." Duke Wei called out anxiously.
What do you think of the soldiers under Prince Rui's command after he pulled this stunt?
Whether you follow Prince Rui or remain neutral, you'll receive new clothes, new blankets, and meat.
On the opposite side of Prince Rui, there were only wound medicines and medicinal materials.
When you compare them like this... who can feel comfortable?
"That bastard Prince Rui tried to trick me, but he really miscalculated," King Wu said with a smug smile.
"He wants to compete with me? Then I'll show him what I'm made of!"
His father always felt that he was not as good as Prince Rui, but he would prove his father wrong with facts!
"Duke of Wei, you should prepare your granddaughter's wedding properly. When the time comes... you will definitely not embarrass the Duke of Wei's family." King Wu had a smug smile on his face.
"Yes." Seeing that the King of Wu already had a plan in mind, the Duke of Wei was relieved.
A few days later, rumors began to circulate in the capital.
While drinking tea at the teahouse, Qi Zhiyu overheard the discussions outside and couldn't help but chuckle softly.
King Wu indeed had many trump cards up his sleeve.
"King Wu was truly righteous, it's just a pity he was betrayed." Someone exclaimed loudly from the next private room.
The commotion didn't sound like the two were just having a casual conversation; rather, it seemed like they were deliberately making it known to others.
Qi Zhiyu knew that Wei Yifeng had done this on purpose.
While on the street, she noticed that Wei Yifeng and Jiang Shuyi were following her from a distance.
She made a special trip to the lively teahouse, and sure enough, Wei Yifeng and Jiang Shuyi arrived shortly afterward.
He even specifically requested the private room next to hers.
It can only be said that some fish insist on biting the bait, and who can you blame for that?
Qi Zhiyu leisurely sipped her tea, while the people next door, receiving no response, resumed their performance.
"King Wu was well prepared, but someone beat him to it. In the end, King Wu was left looking inferior," Wei Yifeng continued to sigh, his voice even a few decibels louder.
A smile appeared on Qi Zhiyu's lips. Did she think his voice wasn't loud enough and she hadn't heard him?
"Yes, that's right," Jiang Shuyi chimed in. "So many supplies can't be prepared overnight."
"The King of Wu had made preparations long ago, but because there were so many things, it took a long time to organize them, which made him a little slower."
"Now, the army only knows that Prince Rui sent gifts, which has overshadowed the story of Prince Wu."
Qi Zhiyu couldn't help but laugh. It has to be said that Jiang Shuyi was a bit more straightforward than Wei Yifeng.
It would be much better to just state her father's name directly.
In this way, she would have a reason to lash out.
She is now a princess of the Prince Rui's mansion, and cannot act on her whims. Everything must have a reasonable explanation.
Of course, if there isn't one, she can create one herself.
Qi Zhiyu leisurely sipped her tea and ate her snacks, listening to Jiang Shuyi and Wei Yifeng in the next private room praising the King of Wu while simultaneously belittling her father.
After she had rested enough, she got up and went outside.
The teahouse's private rooms weren't well soundproofed, so when she got up to open the door, the people next door could naturally hear what she was doing.
Qi Zhiyu walked towards the private room next door, then went directly there and downstairs.
She had just gone down halfway down the stairs when she heard the door behind her open.
A mocking smile flickered in Qi Zhiyu's eyes. Is this all the composure you have?
Useless.
"Princess!" Jiang Shuyi exclaimed.
Qi Zhiyu turned to look at her.
Jiang Shuyi forced a smile: "What a coincidence."
"What a coincidence," Qi Zhiyu said with a light laugh, "You guys followed me all the way here, and spent ages next door talking about putting down my dad."
"Now that I'm ignoring you, aren't you deliberately coming out to cause trouble?"
"What's the point of all this 'coincidence' nonsense?"
Qi Zhiyu exposed Wei Yifeng and Jiang Shuyi's true intentions on the spot, which embarrassed them.
However, they had already broken ties with the Prince Rui's mansion, so there was no need to maintain this superficial facade.
"Princess, it's not that we're looking for trouble, but that we feel sorry for King Wu!" Jiang Shuyi said in a deep voice.
"King Wu had already prepared supplies to send to the soldiers."
"But Prince Rui beat him to it, making it seem as if Prince Wu was imitating Prince Rui when he sent it over, thus putting him at a disadvantage."
There were quite a few people in the teahouse, some drinking tea and others listening to storytelling.
Now, upon hearing the commotion from their side, everyone put down what they were doing and looked over there.
This kind of lively atmosphere is much more interesting than storytelling.
They had recently heard that King Wu had actually prepared the supplies long ago, but for some reason, King Rui got there first.
They were first sent to military units in various regions.
It is said that the King of Wu prepared more exquisite and complete items.
At first, they all thought that King Rui was benevolent and righteous, but after learning about what King Wu had done in the past few days, they felt that King Wu was quite wronged.
The King of Wu was a man who did things in a practical and meaningful way.
King Wu remained silent, and after doing something, he didn't know how to express it.
Moreover, he is sincere.
For His Majesty's sake, and for the safety of his father, even at the risk of being accused of disrespecting the imperial decree, he must eliminate the threat posed by Qi Zhiyu.
Although the King of Wu sometimes seemed a bit reckless in his actions, his heart was good.
Unlike Prince Rui, who would make a big fuss about everything he did.
In comparison, it seems that the King of Wu was quite good.
The people's thoughts are very simple, so Jiang Shuyi and Wei Yifeng only needed to glance at them out of the corner of their eyes to understand what the people were thinking.
They were both very pleased with themselves.
See, the reputation of the King of Wu has been turned around.
King Wu was sincere and trustworthy. Such a person was simple-minded, and the people liked him even more for being straightforward and doing practical things.
Jiang Shuyi looked at Qi Zhiyu smugly.
She wanted to see how Qi Zhiyu would try to argue her way out of it.
In any case, the things prepared by the King of Wu were clearly not hastily put together.
Those are all real things.
That's the skill of the King of Wu!
It can be done in a very short time.
Qi Zhiyu and the others probably didn't anticipate this.
This time, no matter what Qi Zhiyu said, she was able to shut her down.
She was going to repay all the grievances she had suffered at Qi Zhiyu's hands this time!
Jiang Shuyi, like a fighting rooster about to peck at someone, anxiously waited for Qi Zhiyu to make a move so she could attack.
