Chapter 175 The prince just wants to farm 8
The emperor's sixtieth birthday will be in two months. Although Duanmulin doesn't like the emperor, he still needs to work hard to save face.

The emperor has 13 sons, and now there are 8 adult princes who are crowned kings. The others are still young. The emperor is obsessed with power and monopolizes political power. Even if 8 princes have grown up, he still refuses to delegate power. He just gives them fiefdoms, which is in name only. The prince's name sounds nice, but his real power is not as good as that of a minister of the Ministry of War. The princes and princes fight openly and secretly and form cliques, just waiting for the emperor to seize the throne.

There is no crown prince yet. The queen has no son but only a princess. Originally, the queen wanted to adopt a prince, but the emperor didn't know why but refused to give up. There is no legitimate son and he has not established a crown prince. As a result, all the princes want to take over the legitimate son. The competition is so fierce. .

Even if Duan Mulin doesn't want to seize the heir, he still has to pay attention to government affairs. After all, these princes and princes are fighting so fiercely, and Chi Yu will suffer if he is not careful. He, who thinks he is not very smart, should pay attention to it, so as not to die without knowing how .

The eldest prince is weak, the second prince generally has no advantages but also no shortcomings, neither good nor bad. The third prince seems to have a close relationship with the queen and has a good reputation himself. The fourth prince is withdrawn, cold and arrogant and decisive and ruthless. The fifth prince and the eighth prince They are all transparent and have the lowest background among the adult princes. The sixth prince has a good reputation, but his mother's family is a bit weaker than the third prince's. The seventh prince is a fool, but his mother's family is the prime minister and his background is among the princes. The most powerful.

Although the fifth prince and the eighth prince are transparent people, they are not useless at all. The third prince pulled the fifth prince on board and became a member of the third prince's party. The seventh prince also wanted to win over the eighth prince. The method used by the seventh prince was also simple and crude. Money is given to beauties, but unfortunately, Duanmulin is not short of money now and does not like beauties, so it does not impress him. Of course, the most important thing is that he does not want to participate in the fight for the heir.The seventh prince didn't have to do anything with him, so he didn't continue to pester him. He just saw that he didn't like him and gave him a stumbling block, but Duan Mulin resolved it.

Duanmulin was given the worst fiefdom because he was not favored, but for the emperor's birthday, he had to find a way to get a decent birthday gift, right?The emperor's face must still be given.

Duanmulin thought for a while. The emperor was diligent and caring for the people, and he must be concerned about people's livelihood. Then he might as well send new varieties of crops and newly developed farm tools design drawings. Oh, by the way, bring the freshly baked cashmere coat as well.

Just when Duanmulin was busy arranging birthday gifts, an uninvited guest came to his door.

It was a tall and mighty man with a decisive and decisive aura.

He looks to be one or two years older than Duan Mulin.

Duan Mulin didn't know him, but he heard from Li Erhu that he was Ban Gu, the youngest son of General Zhenxi.

There was no emotion on Ban Gu's cold face, but he still tried his best to smile in order to show friendship, but maybe he had never smiled before and didn't know how to smile, so he squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying. His eyes are so ferocious no matter how you look at them, they can scare a child to tears.

Duan Mulin, a man who had lived two lifetimes, was frightened. He patted his chest and said, dumbfounded, "You don't have to laugh if you don't want to. You scared me."

Ban Gu's expression was stagnant, and his expression of whether he was smiling or not was even more terrifying.

Duan Mulin:......

Well, my fault.

Ban Gu seemed to be eloquent and stated his purpose directly without being polite: "The emperor cut off the rations of the Northwest Army. Now the 20-strong army cannot survive without food and grass. I heard that the prince has been in Xishu for only a year. Xi Shu has been managed in an orderly manner, so I would like to ask the prince to pay attention to it, and I will thank you very much."

Hearing this, Duanmulin was also dumbfounded. He was not a prince who just ignored what was happening outside the window and only focused on farming. He still knew a thing or two about government affairs. So, did the emperor want to kill the donkey or did someone do something to it? ?
Although Duan Mulin didn't want to interfere in the government affairs or seize the throne, he couldn't just watch the 20 troops starve to death, right?
The hearts of the soldiers have been chilled. Who will protect their home and country?

There are no eggs under the covering nest?
In order to survive in peace and stability, Duan Mulin had to pick up this hot potato if he didn't want to.

He thought for a while and said: "Well, there are a lot of wastelands in Western Shu, and I have saved a lot of seeds here. You can arrange for soldiers to come over and farm in the morning. How about training in the afternoon? There are also disabled soldiers who can come over. To do some light work, I plan to build a cashmere coat factory. If there is a shortage of people, they can take over."

After hearing what he said, Ban Gu was also stunned. He thought about it and said happily: "That's a good relationship. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness. Our Northwest Army will not forget it."

Even if he was happy, his face was expressionless, but his excitement and joy could be heard from his tone.

Duanmulin smiled and did not refuse: "Okay, I'll wait."
