MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince-Chapter 563 The Northwest Wei family is about to rebel
Chapter 563: The Northwest Wei family is about to rebel
The big commotion caused by the Du family and the Zhenguo government in the morning successfully attracted the attention of some big families in the capital.
This time is different from the past, and it’s no joke.
In the eyes of some people, if a person does not respond well, he may capsize in the gutter.
Two hundred and eighty carts of grain seeds may seem like a lot, but when the country is short of grain seeds, it’s really nothing.
Du Prince Consort notified officials in various places who were waiting for grain.
Su Che asked: "Sir, there are too many people needed, how should we divide them?"
“First come, first served.” Prince Consort Du answered simply.
Su Che was stunned, "Wouldn't this be bad? If the people in front finish collecting, won't there be trouble if the people behind arrive?"
“It’s their fault that they came late, it has nothing to do with us.”
"Yes." Su Che didn't mention it any more and followed Prince Consort Du's instructions to register.
These officials sent from various places came to the capital to ask for grain from the Ministry of Household Affairs. It was precisely because of the arrival of these people that the sense of urgency was highlighted. The emperor had been worried before, but when he saw Du Qian's ability, he simply dumped the blame on him.
Today's events can be said to have given the emperor hope.
The emperor was so happy that he drank an extra bowl of porridge.
Yes, it was the first time that he was so happy half a month after the poisoning.
The emperor put down the bowl, and the chief steward handed over the handkerchief, "Your Majesty, you can rest assured now, the prince has settled the matter of grain seeds."
"This is just the beginning, but it's a good sign." The emperor already knew Du Qian's plan and was not worried about whether it would succeed. "You said, I am older than the two brothers and sisters combined, why didn't I think of this method? ?”
The chief steward was speechless.
This is really hard to answer. Is it because you are old and your brain is not as flexible as young people?
The chief steward seemed to think for a while and replied, "The emperor knows people well and is wise and powerful."
“Ha! Old guy.” The emperor knew that he would not answer directly.
At this time, the emperor suddenly thought of Qin Yuyu again.
The general manager noticed his emotional change and guessed what he was thinking, "The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your body. As long as you are alive, you will be qualified to do anything."
“It’s just something I feel…”
Chin Yuyu should be on his way to Chiyan County now.
The emperor only hoped that she could live a good life in the future and stop being a monster.
The chief steward helped the emperor walk for a while, and then helped him to lie down on the bed when it was almost done.
Qin Yuyu blames the emperor for being partial, and blames the emperor for favoring the princess.
This person is most afraid of comparisons. As long as he is not a mean person, he will not forgive someone who wants to kill him. On the contrary, in order to help the emperor raise food and seeds, the princess is about to offend all the big families. You know, even the emperor would not dare to do such a thing.
Du Wan is being praised by the chief manager.
A booklet containing information about major aristocratic families is being flipped through in Du Wan's hands.
Before visiting major aristocratic families, you still need to understand the situation first.
Logically speaking, Du Wan likes to do the opposite since he became friends with aristocratic families.
The first place Du Wan went to was the Xie family of Dingbei Hou.
The Xie family of the Great Qin State is an old family. Few people know how many years it has been passed down. If it had not been for the war more than ten years ago, it would have been even more prominent.
Xie Zhang never thought that Du Wan would suddenly come to visit.
Dingbeihou and Xie Hong went to the military camp. Xie Zhang was taking a rest today, so he came to entertain them.
Xie Zhang led the people to the main hall and said, "Princess, please take a seat."
“Yeah.” Du Wan sat down generously.
At this time, a generous and decent maid served tea. Du Wan smiled politely, abandoned the normal flow of greetings, and went straight to the topic, "I'm coming to the door, you can guess what's going on, right?"
“Please let the princess know clearly.” Xie Zhang did not dare to guess.
Du Wan picked up the tea and took a sip, "When the country is in trouble, everyone has a responsibility. I'm here for no big reason, just to raise some donations for grain planting or something."
Xie Zhang was silent, he understood, "I understand."
"As long as you understand, send the grain seeds to the Ministry of Household Affairs as soon as possible. You also know how short of grain seeds the country is. A bunch of officials are waiting eagerly, waiting to bring grain seeds back to cultivate as soon as possible." Du Wan said with a look on his face. Righteous.
Had this not been a door-to-door solicitation for donations, I’m afraid it would have been more convincing.
Xie Zhang was very aware of current affairs and immediately agreed to donate.
Du Wan got his promise and did not stay any longer. He had to go to the next house.
When Du Wan stood up to leave.
Xie Zhang suddenly said, "Princess, the Northwest Wei family is about to rebel."
“Did you get the news?” Du Wan looked at him coldly.
Xie Zhang nodded, "Yes."
“I tell this princess the news because I want to get something.” Du Wan knew that the male protagonist was not getting up early because of his lack of profit.
Xie Zhang lowered his eyelids and said in a sincere and respectful tone, "I don't want to get anything, I just want to serve the princess and do a little bit for you."
As long as people are useful, they have the right to speak.
Du Wan understood, "Yeah, I got it."
Two people standing together are not equal.
Let’s make it clear that Du Wan will only be the master and Xie Zhang will be the slave.
The most powerful control of the Xie family lies in Du Wan's hands. Another important reason is that her ability is too terrifying. The masters of the Xie family have no ability to compete with her.
After leaving Xie's house, Du Wan visited one house after another.
As for the rebellion of the Wei family in the northwest, there was nothing reported in the middle of the night. It was something that had been expected for a long time.
The northwest has long been out of food, so it is difficult not to rebel. I'm just afraid that if the news spreads, it will cause chain reactions across the country. The most important thing is that if chaos breaks out in various places, it will be difficult to govern.
Even before I had visited all the families on the list, I heard the latest news.
Some people are very knowledgeable and have a strong desire to survive. There was no need for her to visit, but cartloads of grain seeds were delivered to the Yamen first. It might not be Du's big deal, but there were still twenty cartloads of grain.
Originally, Prince Consort Du had finished all the grain distribution.
The officials who came over in a hurry and missed the distribution of grain seeds were busy begging for justice. Before they could use their abilities, they heard someone coming to donate grain seeds again.
Su Che is divided on a first-come, first-served basis.
Those who came later had to queue up, which made those who came behind feel so regretful that their intestines were green.
In the afternoon, Xie Zhang personally delivered fifty carts of grain seeds.
Du Prince Consort praised him a few words and then ordered Su Che to count the grains and record them in his account.
Xie Zhang saw this kind of handover on the spot, took inventory, and then handed over on the spot.
The Ministry of Household Affairs has made it clear that there is no manipulation at all, no taking advantage, and that it is honest, fair, and selfless. This was different from the decadent court in his impression.
“Master Du, do you need help from my subordinates?” Xie Zhang took the initiative to step forward.
Du Consort smiled faintly, with an elegant temperament, "It's up to you to help watch those people and don't let them fight."
Xie Zhang looked towards the noisy place over there.
As expected, several officials who were waiting for the distribution of grain were arguing, and they all insisted that they were the first to arrive.
