The Red Chamber: Daiyu's eldest sister is not easy to be

Chapter 231 Departure to the Border
Oh, when you want to follow the wishes of the court officials, the threat of banging your head against the pillar becomes a show of your compromise, and then let others praise you as a benevolent monarch and a good monarch who listens to advice.

When you don't want to deal with them anymore, banging your head against the pillar becomes a crime of forcing the emperor, and then you can kill the chicken to scare the monkeys to punish them.

Listen, listen, what are these words? It would be disastrous if those old adults heard them!

Although some people are pedantic, they are indeed good officials with integrity. You can't kill them and destroy their hearts just because they are pedantic!

Alas, forget it!
She was really afraid that after those old adults knew the truth, they would collectively bang their heads against the pillars, and then she would never be able to clear her bad reputation.

As an emperor, one can have a good or bad reputation. It’s okay if this guy has a bad reputation, he can change it later, but her reputation cannot be ruined as well, because that would be a disgrace for thousands of years.

She stood up speechlessly and took the imperial edict. Then, holding the imperial edict, she turned around and walked out.

The emperor saw this and said hurriedly, "It's getting late and the palace gates are closed. You should go to the queen's place and rest for the night!"

Don't worry, I have already told them in advance, and the Queen has also sent people to knock on the door, I guarantee that no one will disturb your rest."

Jiusi said without even turning his head: "No, there are people waiting for me at home, I will just go back and rest.

I will lead my men to the border tomorrow, so I won't come to say goodbye to you. As for this imperial edict, you can send it directly to the border and other places!"

After hearing her say this, the emperor didn't say anything more. He stood quietly at the door of the imperial study, watching her walk away step by step until she disappeared around the corner of the palace wall.

After a long time, he turned around and went back to the imperial study to continue processing memorials. Now that the war was imminent, he did not have much time to rest and relax. Otherwise, if he was not careful, he would probably die.

As for the imperial edict, it will be sent to all places as soon as possible tomorrow morning. Since I want her help, I have to show my sincerity, so that she won't be inconvenienced in her actions later and will blame me again.

As the order was issued, many messengers left the city overnight and rushed to various places, fearing that one step at night might ruin the whole thing. In wartime, speed can affect the overall situation.

Jiusi didn't delay much after returning home. After telling Eryue to pack up, he went back to his room to wash up. Then, he ate some food, put his things into the space, and set off with Eryue overnight.

As for January, just send a message while you are on the way. If he has not returned yet, wait for him at the border. If he is still at the border, then meet up there.

In this way, she can collect more information before she arrives, which will also make it easier for her to act later.

This time, she not only had to go to the border to help fight the war, but also had to help bring the emperor's food and grass stored in various places to the border.

When the war broke out, the spies hidden in various countries came out. If something happened during the transportation of food and fodder, what would the soldiers at the border eat? So the emperor simply asked her to find a way to take the food along.

So, if some things are made clear, it will be really convenient to get things done. There is no need to hide anything or find excuses. It is so convenient.

This was also the reason why the messenger was in a hurry to set off, because if this matter was not made clear in advance, the officials guarding the place would definitely not dare to hand over the food and fodder to her, and there would inevitably be wrangling, which would really delay things.

Jiusi was not an iron man after all. He had been in the forest for so long and dealt with so many people and things. He was already exhausted physically and mentally. He had to travel all night. Soon, his eyebrows and eyes were filled with fatigue. Eryue saw this and said, "Master, why don't you find a place to rest! No matter how urgent it is, it's not urgent now. Besides, if you are in a good mental state, you can deal with those emergencies while traveling."

Jiusi was not the kind of person who would not listen to advice, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's find a secluded place and take a rest in the space!

It's hard to find a place to stay this late at night. It's getting light again, so it's safer and more convenient to go into space. The speed in space is different, so I can rest a little longer."

After hearing this, Er Yue thought it made sense, so he went to find a forest. There was nothing much near the pipeline, just mountains, forests and wasteland.

The two men entered the space with their horses and then went back to their rooms to rest.

As for the two horses, they had originally come out of the space, so Jiusi didn't need to worry about them at all. They returned to the stable as soon as they entered the space.

After the two of them had rested and had a meal, they left the space and set off on their journey again. After running for about five days, they finally arrived at the first place where food and grass were stored.

Coincidentally, they arrived just after the messenger left. They were so fast that they were almost caught as spies by the guarding officials and soldiers.

Seeing this, Jiusi had no choice but to take out the imperial edict: "This is the imperial edict written by the emperor. If you still don't believe it, I have a token representing the emperor's personal presence and a military token."

As soon as the imperial edict was taken out, the official knew that what she said might be true. However, to be on the safe side, he walked forward and took a closer look. After confirming that it was authentic, he led his men to kneel down and kowtow.

After Jiu Sirang got up, the official took her to the place where the grain and grass were stored, and showed her the account book to prevent any mistakes from being made that would be blamed on him.

Jiusi didn't have time to look at the account books, so she asked Eryue to check it. She sent people somewhere else, and then went to the warehouse alone and put all the things into the space.

As soon as the things entered the space, she knew how much she had collected this time. She went back to reconcile the accounts with Eryue who had looked at the account book. After finding that there was no problem, she returned the account book to the official.

As she led the horse out, she said to the official, "I have checked the items carefully. There is indeed nothing wrong with them. The quantities are correct. You have done a good job.

Time is running out, and it is not convenient for us to stay here any longer. I will send a letter back to Beijing to inform His Majesty of your contribution later."

The official originally thought that she was a little cold and unapproachable, but after hearing what she said, he immediately smiled and respectfully escorted them out of the city. He also sent someone to pack a lot of food for them before they left.

Those who were sent to guard the grain and grass were mostly officials under the emperor's confidants, but these people were also small figures. After all, there were many places to store the grain and grass, and there were so many officials guarding them. How could the emperor possibly remember so many people? Even if he remembered a name, he would not take it seriously.

Anyone who catches his eye is either a capable minister or a brave general. Why would he bother to remember them if they are just subordinates of his trusted people?

If no one said a few good words for them in front of the emperor, no matter how well they did, in the end they would just get the response that it was what they deserved. Therefore, he was truly grateful to Jiusi.

Although Jiusi's words may sound light, as long as he can get an approval from the emperor, his future will have another possibility.

There is no official who doesn't want to climb up the ladder, it's just that he doesn't have the connections and opportunities.
