After dressing like a crazy princess, I turned the hero into a tyrant

Chapter 57 Who is 057 loyal to?

After dealing with the prisoners of war, Gu Liancheng told the prince his plan.

"Do you really think now is a good time to attack Beijing City?" the prince asked Gu Liancheng.

Gu Liancheng nodded: "Yes, I feel that the current northern city can't maintain peace for long, and the emperor of the opponent is also in the city now, as long as we attack the northern city and capture the emperor, then the whole Daqing will be in control. It's in our hands."

The crown prince's first reaction when he heard this was to panic. Seeing no one around, he pointed at Gu Liancheng and said, "Be careful what you say in the future."

Dafeng is now the richest country and strong army among the small affiliated countries in the surrounding area, and Dafeng has contributed the most in this crusade. They would not want to share the results with other small countries, but naturally they want to swallow the whole of Daqing in one go. And to take a step back, even if they couldn't swallow the entire Daqing in one breath, they would definitely want half of it.

Therefore, the prince did not accuse Gu Liancheng of saying the wrong thing, because even he thought so, and sooner or later half of Daqing's country would be entrusted to them.

"My brother remembers."

The prince was very satisfied with his answer, "Well, since you think now is the time to attack the northern border, then Gu will trust you once again. This time Gu also ordered you to be the vanguard to attack the northern border. What do you think?"

Naturally, Gu Liancheng would not refuse, "I would like to thank His Royal Highness for your trust, but I have a request."

Hearing that Gu Liancheng had started to make demands on him, the prince's face flickered with gloom, but he quickly returned to normal.

"That's fine, you can tell. As long as it is within the scope of Gu's ability, Gu will try his best to help you achieve it."

Gu Liancheng said: "I want to go to His Royal Highness to ask for some soldiers. This attack has caused a lot of losses for my soldiers. After all, Beijing City is the first pass to enter Daqing, and there must be masters in the city." Ruyun, so I feel that if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can agree to this request, then capturing the northern city and capturing the emperor alive will be just around the corner."

The prince was happy, "It turns out that you just want to add some manpower. Let me tell you earlier. In this way, I still have an elite cavalry under my tent. I will hand them over to you. During the attack on the northern border city, they will let you go." Dispatch, how?"

It can be said that Gu Liancheng had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and Gu Liancheng, the cavalry under the prince's tent, had been thinking about it for a long time.

"My brother thanked His Highness the Crown Prince."

But the prince said: "There is no need to be so polite between you and my brother, everything is for the sake of great service."

The two brothers lived in "harmony" in the army tent, but at this time the city in the northern border was in chaos.

Chang Lin did not bring back the food and grass that Shen Jianshan had expected, seeing him come back empty-handed, Shen Jianshan felt uneasy.

"Why is there only this little food?"

Looking at the food cart, Shen Jianshan frowned tightly. This cart might be a drop in the bucket.

Chang Lin directly asked people to push the prefect of Qingzhou City out.

"The prince should ask this person himself."

Shen Jianshan looked at the tightly bound man on the ground, "Who is he?"

Changlin said: "He is the prefect of Qingzhou City."

Shen Jianshan looked at the prefect of Qingzhou City and asked, "Tell me, why did you get kidnapped?"

The magistrate just kept shouting that he was wronged, "My lord, I am really wronged. This lord can't collect the food himself, so he takes down the official to vent his anger. He thinks that the lower official is embarrassing him, but when the lord arrives When we were in Qingzhou City, the lower official sent someone to help, but the grown-up was dissatisfied with the harvested food, so he tied up the lower official and brought him here."

Seeing that he still dared to tell lies at this time, Chang Lin was furious, "You dare to lie, why don't you explain to the prince, where did all the food in the treasury go?"

Hearing Chang Lin mentioned the government treasury, the Qingzhou prefect's eyes began to move around dishonestly. Shen Jianshan knew that there must be something wrong with this person when he saw this.

"In that case, bring this person into the palace, and listen to His Majesty's instructions."

The prefect of Qingzhou panicked when he heard that the emperor actually lived in the northern palace, "My lord, my lord, I am really wronged. The food in the treasury was transferred away by the regent a long time ago."

Changlin didn't expect the truth of the matter to be like this.

"Is what you said true?"

If it is true what the prefect of Qingzhou City said, then the situation in the northern border may become more dangerous.

At this time, the prefect of Qingzhou City dare not tell the truth, but he nodded vigorously: "Of course it is true."

"Then do you know where he transferred the grain storage?"

The prefect of Qingzhou City shook his head: "At that time, an adult came to do this with the token of the regent. The officials have never seen the regent himself, so naturally they dare not ask them what they are doing with the food."

After hearing the words of the prefect of Qingzhou City, both Changlin and Shen Jianshan would be irritated by his behavior.

"That is to say, you don't even know whether the person who came is from the Regent's subordinates, so you sent out the food in the treasury?"

The magistrate of Qingzhou City felt that he had done nothing wrong at all.

"The lower official has carefully checked the token that the man brought, and there is really no problem. That's why the lower official opened the treasury and let him take away the food."

Seeing his unrepentant temperament, Changlin shouted angrily: "Then do you know whose subject you are? Who is the master of this Daqing? You actually like listening to the regent so much. I think you are the regent at all." Wang’s subordinates are right, it’s a shame to put you in the small Qingzhou City.”

Although Chang Lin's words were not very timely, Shen Jianshan did not blame him, because in his opinion, the prefect of Qingzhou City had probably already been confused about who he should be loyal to.

"Come here, send this person to the palace prison. When the war is over, your Majesty will decide how to deal with this person."

Obviously I have said everything I know, but I still want to throw myself into the prison. The prefect of Qingzhou City is not reconciled. go in?"

Chang Lin looked at him coldly and said, "Just because you forget that you are His Majesty's courtier, no matter what you do, you should only listen to His Majesty."

These words directly confused the magistrate of Qingzhou City, because in his opinion, sometimes the orders of the Regent are not the orders of His Majesty the Emperor?
After the person was taken away, Chang Lin asked Shen Jianshan, "My lord, what should I do now?"

Facing the unexpected situation, Shen Jianshan was also a little confused, "Go and see His Majesty first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
