The god doctor kisses her, she is a group pet boss

Chapter 264

King Mu stepped forward and said angrily.

"I have something to play. The border is in a hurry, the army is in full swing, and several cities in the border towns have been plundered by the enemy, and the people are in dire straits. The minister leads our army to gallop on the battlefield, protect our rivers and mountains, and protect our people. But the army's food is insufficient, and the army's salary can only last for a few months , Hubu Shangshu Dugufu repeatedly delayed the military rations, and asked the Holy One to make decisions for his ministers."

As soon as King Mu finished speaking, the eldest prince also stepped forward and echoed.

"I also ask the Holy One to be the master. Dugufu is not good at doing things, the military pay is not enough every day, the people of my great Chu are not peaceful every day, and the rivers and mountains of my great Chu are not stable every day."

Dugu Yu's face was expressionless, he pretended not to hear the Eldest Prince and King Mu singing together.

"Dugu, why hasn't the issue of military pay been resolved yet?"

Emperor Yongye rubbed his eyebrows.

Recently, he has been in poor health, and there have been a lot of troubles in the court, which gave him a headache.

"My Majesty, the national treasury is short, and all the supplementary taxes have not been handed in. Your Majesty will give you some more time."

Dugu Wu said in a leisurely manner.

"King Duck, you are clearly trying to shirk. I have heard that you are protecting Princess Yong'an, and other nobles and princes are very dissatisfied with you and are unwilling to pay taxes. Let alone give you some more time, it will be considered as giving you another year , you can’t pay so much taxes. You bend the law for selfishness and protect your own family, you are ashamed of the Holy Majesty, and I am ashamed of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Great Chu!"

King Mu spoke passionately, pointing at Dugu Wu and angrily scolded.

He was proud of himself, Dugu Wu, you have today too.

Back then, Dugu Wu held the military power and was invincible. As an old prince, his achievements on the battlefield were much worse than him. Now that Feng Shui has changed, Dugu Wu has become disabled, and he is in power!

"Mu Wang, if I remember correctly, this king has been bloody on the battlefield for ten years. During these ten years, you married eight concubines in Chudu, gave birth to several illegitimate daughters and children, and held banquets every month. Who are you and I ashamed of over a dozen games?"

Dugu Wu glanced coldly, Mu Wang's scalp felt numb for no reason, and his calf felt cool.

"Dugu Wu, what does this king's housework have to do with you? This king just asked you about the military rations and salaries. In a few months, the Mu family's army will go to war."

King Mu stared at Dugu Wu.

"I report to the Holy Majesty, the most urgent thing is to make up the deficit of the household department first."

Hua Wushang said.

"That's right. Dugu Yu, didn't Feng Bailing say last time that she can pay 20 taels of tax within a month. There are not many days left in this month. Why don't you see the princess' mansion come out with money? , I also heard that Feng Bailing left the city, could it be that she couldn't pay the taxes and fled alone?"

Dongfang Cheng gloated.

As soon as Dongfang Cheng finished speaking, a young eunuch left.

"Princess Yong'an is asking to see you outside."

"Why is Lianhua so ignorant, what are you still doing to her?
Emperor Yongye pinched his brows lightly.

"Return to the Holy Lord, Princess Yong'an is here to pay the tax of the household department."

As soon as the words fell, Dugu Wu froze.

Emperor Yongye was also taken aback.

Dongfang Lianhua walked in in formal attire, and she ordered someone to bring several large boxes of silver.

"Report to Your Majesty, the Princess Mansion has been in arrears of taxes for ten years. My sister has paid them together."

Emperor Yongye looked happy.

"Lianhua, you are so clear about righteousness, you are really a role model among the royal family."

Emperor Yongye ordered Li Qing to accept the bank notes.

When Dongfang Lianhua retreated, Emperor Yongye's expression darkened.

"You have all seen that Princess Yong'an, a woman and children, and the princess mansion can pay back the taxes for ten years. What else can you say? Make up all the remaining taxes before the end of the month, and let the family pay less taxes. The parents in the mansion use the prison sentence to offset it, 1 taels less, and they will be locked up for one year."

"Saint is wise."

Dugu duck hurriedly said.

All the royals and nobles in the hall gasped.

The corners of King Mu's mouth seemed a little dispirited, and the Prince Mu's House would also pay a lot of money to pay back the taxes.

"Even if the tax issue is resolved, our military rations, without military rations, the sergeants can't fight, and the morale of the army is unstable."

King Mu refused to give up.

"Your Majesty, I have prepared two months of military rations."

Dugu Wu ignored King Mu and just reported to Emperor Yongye.

"Two months, that's not enough."

Emperor Yongye glanced at Honglu Temple Qing Hua Wushang at the side, Hua Wushang shook his head.

King Mu's army has a total of more than [-] people, and they are still recruiting new soldiers recently. Food and grass are first, which is the rule before going out.

According to common sense, at least three months of military rations and half a year's military salary should be prepared.

Dugu Wu has rich combat experience, it is impossible for him not to know this kind of common sense, unless he intends to hinder King Mu's march.

"Dugu Wu, you are clearly trying to make things difficult, two months of military rations, you sent beggars?"

King Mu asked angrily.

He knelt in front of Emperor Yongye.

"Your Majesty, it's not that the humble minister doesn't serve the country, it's really a villain's success. Some people feel unwilling to see the humble minister gaining military power, and secretly obstruct it. The humble minister is helpless in this battle. Please ask the Holy Master to invite another wise man."

"Why did Mu Aiqing say that, get up, I will let Dugu explain to you about the military rations."

Emperor Yongye's eyes were deep, and he squinted at Duguqu.

"Dugu, you are familiar with the laws of Great Chu, do you know what crime should be for 'abolishing orders'?"

Officials who are unfavorable in their work are called "abolishing orders". Those who abolish orders will be dismissed from office if they are light, or exiled if they are serious.

When King Mu heard this, his eyes lit up with joy.

Although he has obtained the military power, the morale of the army is not stable. In the Great Chu army, many of them are the old troops of Dugu duck. If Dugu duck is not eliminated, the old troops will not follow orders.

This time, King Mu took advantage of the military rations to make things difficult for Dugu Wu, just to eradicate the grass and roots.

Facing Emperor Yongye's accusation, Dugu Wu sneered in his heart.

He has been marching and fighting for many years, and his achievements are as high as mountains and seas. The small amount of military rations should be punished with the crime of "abolishing orders". Emperor Yongye, Emperor Yongye, how much do you hate me?

There was a dead silence throughout the court, and no one dared to come forward and say more.

"[-] soldiers are soldiers, and [-] soldiers are farmers. They farm the fields while they are fighting, and at the same time repair the border water conservancy. Two months are used to grow potatoes and corn that can feed their stomachs, which is enough for [-] soldiers for half a year. This method, I used it on the frontier back then, and it worked very well. As for the recruitment of new soldiers, the people on the frontier have nothing to do after the autumn harvest, so they can be recruited to serve as tenant soldiers, and the military salary is only half, and it can also help produce military rations."

Dugu Wu led the army to fight for nearly ten years. He also encountered natural disasters and man-made disasters. The military rations of the household department were not enough. He used two months of military rations to carry them for ten months.

"The border is now occupied by soldiers from several countries. Do you think it is the same country you fought in back then?"

King Mu said angrily.

As soon as Laozi's quarrying stone came out, the border was in chaos.

All countries feel that there is no one in Dachu, and want to take advantage of this to invade Dachu.

Several countries conspired to march together, so King Mu would recruit troops.

"Three months, 13 military rations, this is already the minimum limit. If you can't meet this requirement, then what kind of official will you be?"

King Mu cast a glance at Dugu Qu.

He has eyes and ears in the household department, and the military ration of 10 people in two months is already the limit of Dugu duck's food collection for a while.

He couldn't change that much food no matter what.
