The prince was anxious. He had already forgotten that this was the court and he could not argue with Yan Shuo. He said angrily, "Third brother, can you not be too naive? Now the Five Kingdoms Alliance has formed an army to bully me, Yan Shuo." Country, even if Shen Sanqiao has great hands and eyes, can he really prepare all the food? Well, even if he can, transporting it from the five countries will be another problem. Even if he can transport it, it will take at least a month. Send it to the army at the border. Don't you know that the border is now so short of food that we don't even have a meal?"
This matter is a top secret. Only the emperor and the prince know about it. It has not been announced to the ministers. Yan Rong was not only originally, but now that the prince said it in public, he also knew it. Not only that, the courtiers behind him also took a breath. They Everyone knows that the matter is critical, but few people have the keen eyes to deduce the truth of the matter from the clues.
The emperor's current mood is no longer appropriate to describe as angry. If he had a sharp sword in his hand, he would swing it towards the prince without hesitation and kill this idiot who didn't hold back. He didn't think there was enough chaos in the capital. , do you have to be satisfied if the Jinluan Palace also causes panic among people?
Yan Shuo waited quietly for the prince to finish speaking angrily, and after making sure that he had nothing to follow up, he raised his head slowly, took out a letter from his sleeve with a half-smile, and asked Guixi, the eunuch who was serving the emperor closely. He forwarded it, "To inform my father, raising military rations is such a major matter. I have to be sure of it. I don't dare to make random promises. Today, I got a personal reply from Shen Sanqiao before I dare to say it. This year, the five countries have a high yield and a bumper harvest. Farmers' families There was a surplus of grain, so Shen Sanqiao bought it at a low price. He used condiments and rouge that were not worth a penny in our country to exchange for a large amount of grain, which he hid in passing merchant ships and had recently arrived at the border. At this moment, Seven Brother, they have probably already eaten the food we sent. The journey is long and the transportation is inconvenient. Father will get the good news that the food shortage will be lifted in three days."
The prince was petrified in an instant and couldn't utter a single word. There was a voice in his head shouting that this was a lie. He was talking nonsense. There was no way that the Third Prince, who usually only flattered people, could take the lead. Give him first. Solved the dilemma of food shortage on the front line.[
