Chapter 013 The King and the Prince

The prince came to the imperial study room, but he never expected that Prime Minister Zhang had arrived. The prince saluted respectfully. When he was about to explain, the king asked straight to the point, "Where is the boy you brought back from Qianfeng City?"

The prince already understood in his heart that Prime Minister Zhang had reported the incident to the king and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mr., in Chengyuan Village, Qianfeng City, I did bring back a young man, but the wilderness family there, the young man was confused, understood nothing, and knew nothing. I felt compassion for this and left him in the mansion!"

Prime Minister Zhang smiled and said, "Your Highness the Prince must not know the law of Yuan Yueguo. It is probably difficult to convince the public if you hide prisoners in private like this!"

The prince nodded and said with a smile, "What the Prime Minister said is very true. Thank you for your reminder. I have lost my troops and lost my generals after returning from Qianfeng City. I have been cleaning up the army these days. I forgot about this matter for a moment. Thanks to Prime Minister Zhang's reminder, I... "

"Where are people now?" the king immediately interrupted the prince's words and asked coldly.

The prince hurried forward, bowed his hand, and said, "Go back to the Lord, I put it in the woodshed. I was careless and negligent for a moment. He escaped. Please rest assured that the Lord, I have sent Scar to search. After finding it, I will send it to the Ministry of War immediately!"

The king nodded slightly and said without expression, "Brother Wang, I know that you are going to Qianfeng City, which will cause you to lose your troops and your generals, and your vitality will be severely damaged. If you need to replenish your troops, I can assign you from the Ministry of War, but all the seized will be handed over. This is a national decree!"

In Yuanyue Kingdom, from the prince to the general, everyone has their own army because of their own position. Every time they go to war, they can only lead their own army. His Highness the Prince had long wanted to hand over this military power. He understood that although this system can promote their own ability to lead troops, the power of the country is relatively weak. Sometimes the army and army have become the private property of the generals and ministers. When His Highness heard this, he said, "No, no, no, Master, although he lost two thousand soldiers this time, it is not a problem. I still have eight thousand, so I can guard the house and protect the hospital!"

Prime Minister Zhang smiled and stepped forward and said, "How can this work? You are the prince, why are there only eight thousand soldiers? I think it would be better to draw two thousand from the Ministry of War as a supplement!"

His Highness the Prince smiled and said, "The soldiers of the Ministry of War are owned by the monarch. I have used two thousand, and the soldiers of the Ministry of War are less than two thousand. How can this be done? I have eight thousand, which can be used completely. When I go to war, it is not too late for me to borrow again!"

The king nodded, his face stretched slightly, and said, "Brother Wang is polite to the national conditions. It is my blessing for Yuan Yue and the role model for all the people. Since that is the case, I will no longer force you. Okay, when you find the escaped person, you will send it to the Ministry of War!"

His Highness the Prince nodded, stepped back, and went back straight back, but Prime Minister Zhang said to the king, "Master, have you seen it? Is the Prince..."

The king looked at him and said, "If you have anything, just say it."

Prime Minister Zhang said, "Who doesn't want to have soldiers in the court, but for his ulterior motives, the prince would rather not have those two thousand soldiers for his ulterior motives. He should have had 20,000 soldiers, but he only had 10,000, and now there are only 8,000 left. Why is that?"

The king nodded and said, "Brother Wang has always advocated state-owned military ownership. In his opinion, whether it is a general or a civil service, he only left more than a hundred people guarding the house. At first, he gave him ten thousand troops, but he reluctantly wanted it, but later he reluctantly agreed!"

Prime Minister Zhang smiled coldly and said, "This is the most terrifying place. I heard that there are many talented people in the prince's army. It's just that scar. He can become a general. But he insists on committing himself to the prince's command and being a follower. Who knows what his eight thousand soldiers are like? Why did he keep the people brought back from Qianfeng City?"

The king sighed long and said, "Even if he has any ideas, what can he do if he is only eight thousand people? After he finds the people he brought back from Qianfeng City, he will definitely send them to the Ministry of War!"

Prime Minister Zhang also sighed and said, "I hope this is the case!"

The prince hurried back to the mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked, "Have you found that boy?"

Scar nodded and said, "He did not escape. It was Princess Qiyun who took her to the corner to hide!"

At this moment, a graceful girl walked out of the back hall. She saw black hair pouring down, a pair of silver hairpins still looked innocent, and a pair of watery eyes were embedded on her fair face. Before she could walk to her father, she shouted loudly, "Dad, I did not hide from her, this is just a coincidence..."

The prince interrupted her and asked, "Qiyun, don't mess around, what's going on?"

Princess Qiyun pouted and said, "I saw Prime Minister Zhang and the others coming to the palace and knew that there was nothing good. After hearing your conversation, I realized that Dad, you hid someone in the woodshed. Since it was the person you want, I naturally wanted to leave it behind. So I sneaked into the woodshed and hid the boy outside the wall, so that Prime Minister Zhang could not wait!"

The prince glared at her, then picked up the tea and drank it. Scar said, "Princess, this scares us to death. Do you know the charge of privately hiding prisoners of war?"

Princess Qiyun said willfully, "The king and his father are brothers. Even if we keep it privately, what can we do?"

"Rareless! How can you speak like this?" Suddenly His Highness the Prince got angry, "The king is the king of a country, not my Duanmu family's brother. Even if I violate the law, I will treat you equally. How can you be so willful?"

Princess Qiyun shook her head and said, "What's wrong with the monarch? The monarch is also a human being. He is both a monarch and my uncle. It is impossible for him to be a monarch, and even we don't recognize him!"

His Highness the Prince said, "Precisely because he is your uncle and because he is the king, we naturally have to set an example. How can we cause trouble for him?"

Princess Qiyun smiled and said, "Since that's the case, Dad, why did you keep that kid? Aren't you breaking the law by knowing the law? Who is he? Why did Dad take the big violation of the world and imprison him in the woodshed?"

Princess Qiyun's words left His Highness speechless for a moment. He didn't know why Mu Yang was left behind, but he felt extremely close to this Mu Yang, otherwise he wouldn't have brought him back in Gui Jianchou. He knew better than anyone else. Only God knows what this kid would become when sent to the Ministry of War!

Scar said, "Princess, you don't know. If you send that kid to the Ministry of War, you don't know what will happen. If that kid can survive, only God knows. Your Highness is also thinking about the kid!"

His Highness the Prince was too lazy to pay attention to these trivial matters, put down his cup and said, "Take that young man! Now, I can only send it to the Ministry of War!"

"What? Dad, do you really want to send that person to the Ministry of War?" asked Princess Qiyun.

The prince nodded helplessly and squeezed out a few words, "Your way of doing it!"

Princess Qiyun shook her head and said, "If I had known you were going to send it to the Ministry of War, I would have taken it away!" As she said that, she turned around suddenly and left with her long legs!
