Quick, female general, I traveled through time to save my father

Chapter 115 Great Qi Dynasty 6

Sirong led the troops to clear out all the bandit dens that Muchen had discovered earlier.

I went to the capital again at night.

Mrs. Li helped Si's mother take good care of her father. When Si Rong went over, they had just finished giving Si's father a muscle massage.

Si Mu told her about the recent burglaries in the homes of Prime Minister Yu and the Minister of Revenue in the capital.

Si Mu was a little worried that the general's mansion might also be targeted by thieves.

Sirong touched the tip of her nose guiltily to reassure her mother.

Most of the servants in the mansion are retired veterans from the Zhenbei Army, so there is no need to worry about their fighting strength and loyalty.

Moreover, although the general's mansion is so big, most of the money in the family was used by my father to supplement the military rations of the Zhenbei Army.

Even if the thief wanted to steal, he wouldn't choose their house.

After that, Si's mother asked about Sirong's well-being and took out two sets of winter clothes that she had made for her.

Let Sirong take it away and wear it when winter comes.

It gets very cold in the winter on the northern border, and Sirong, as a girl, can't catch a cold.

Although Sirong returned the engagement token from the Mu family, it seemed that the Mu family had no intention of canceling the engagement.

The mistress of the Mu family had come to see her before and said that she only recognized Sirong as her daughter-in-law.

But Simu didn't dare to promise anything.

Even the second son of the Mu family didn't care about Sirong leading the troops to fight and the rumors outside.

But on the battlefield, swords and knives are merciless, and no one can guarantee that Sirong will not be injured.

Everything can only be decided after the war is over and Sirong returns.

If something really happened to their daughter, they would not do anything against their conscience and harm the Mu family.

When Si Rong heard her mother talking about the marriage between the Simu and Simu families, she began to want to escape.

Even though Sirong lives in a small world, she can handle these things with ease.

But when it came to herself, she started to have a headache.

How to put it, her feelings for Muchen didn't seem to be much of a romantic relationship.

Pure buddy.

Anyway, now is not the time to think about these things. Let's wait until my father wakes up before talking about other things.

After leaving Simu, Sirong went to Jiangnan.

The prince and Mu Yang still had some means. On the way to Jiangnan, they arranged three substitutes for the prince.

Outside, he was deceiving those who wanted to assassinate the prince.

He and Mu Yang mixed in with the escort team and arrived at Taohuazhou safely.

The disaster relief grain funds arranged by the Ministry of Revenue have been delayed and have not yet been delivered here.

And according to the information reported by the spies, they deliberately created a robber or something like that.

I want to swallow this money.

The last time the homes of the Minister of Revenue and Prime Minister Yu were robbed, even the secret rooms in their homes were not spared.

All the places where silver was hidden had been visited.

This was something these two cunning old men had not expected.

Recently, the household expenses of the Minister of Revenue were all paid by the minister's wife, who temporarily borrowed money from her parents' home.

Minister Feng's eyes were red every day, urging the Jingzhao Prefecture to solve the case for him quickly.

The prefect of Jingzhao was also feeling very sad because so much silver and money in his family's treasury was stolen.

No one in your family noticed anything.

Moreover, when he went to the scene to check, he didn't even see any traces of tire tracks from the transportation. How could he find it?

Prime Minister Yu and Minister Feng, who have never lacked money, have never lived like this.

There just happened to be such a batch of disaster relief money and grain, so the two corrupt officials whose homes were robbed would naturally catch his attention.

When Sirong went there, the prince was discussing this matter with the two brothers Mu Yang and Muchen.

"The team transporting relief grain will arrive at Hukouling in three days.

According to the information reported by the spies, one of Prime Minister Yu's servants had connections with the bandits in Hukouling.

I guess they want to start a fight there.”

Muchen gave the news he had obtained to the prince for review.

“Cousin Prince, let me go.

In addition to getting that batch of food back, I will also flatten that bandit's hilltop."

Muchen looked at the prince and elder brother anxiously, wanting them to agree to let him go to receive the disaster relief grain.

With the food provided by Sirong, and Mu Yang taking the prince's calligraphy, he raised funds from the wealthy businessmen nearby.

The first batch of food has been distributed to the victims.

The local people were all grateful for the kindness of the court and the prince.

Before setting off for Jiangnan, a counselor in the prince's mansion offered advice to the prince.

It was said that someone must have embezzled the disaster relief grain, and the prince could keep it secret. When the plague began to spread, he would have a way to weaken the power of other princes.

At that time, the prince will come forward to save the people and accumulate reputation.

You should know that those who are good at fighting may not have great military achievements, and those who are good at medicine may not have great reputations.

If the prince had resolved the issue so quickly, he would at most have received a compliment from the emperor.

It's not much help in earning savings.

But the prince refused.

When he and Mu Yang arrived in Taohuazhou, they immediately distributed food to the people.

They also organized people to set up large pots in front of the pharmacies in the city and start making medicinal soup to prevent the epidemic.

As for the prince, it's not that he doesn't accept underhanded tactics.

But he still couldn't bring himself to do it at the cost of so many civilian lives.

He had been a target since he was young and had long since given up expecting praise from his father.

But the position of the crown prince is not something that anyone can seize.

No one, including his father, could influence anything.

If his father's wishes were really followed, he would probably be the one among all his sons that he least wanted to be chosen as the crown prince.

But so what? He is the legitimate son, and he has the support of his mother and the Yong'an Duke's Mansion.

If you want to arm wrestle, you have to test your own strength first.

Several people were also very surprised to see Sirong coming.

The prince was also concerned about whether anything would happen to Sirong after she left the border.

Sirong dealt with them all.

Sirong never thought of letting them know about her golden finger.

After all, it is very likely that the throne will be inherited by the crown prince in the future.

By that time, it is still unknown what his attitude towards the General's Mansion will be.

Now everyone can interact with each other sincerely, but when status and position change, the mentality will also change.

As for the disaster relief grain, the Crown Prince and his men could not allow Prime Minister Yu and his men to swallow it up.

The person who led the team to deliver the food was from the prince's side.

Although the Ministry of Revenue had been delaying the fundraising process, they did not waste any time in delivering the grain.

I have been rushing here day and night.

We can’t let Prime Minister Yu and his men reap the benefits while having our own people take the blame.

In the end, they agreed and let Muchen bring a team to pick them up.

Sirong naturally went with Muchen to take a look.
