Aristocratic Concubine

Chapter 389 Indecent (3)
"However, is this the only way to absolve Lord Shangguan from the crime? How will the prince explain to the [-] troops, and how to clarify the law?" Lord Zhao's tone was obviously not as firm as it was at the beginning.

"Lord Qian is collaborating with the enemy and treason. He sold almost all the ordnance replaced by the [-] troops in Longjing Town to the third prince of Beirong in the past two years. Moreover, he also took away the military lunch of the [-] troops for a year, and ate his own money. In addition, [-]% of the grain and grass accumulated in Longjing Town were also sold to Beirong, Mr. Zhao, these few items alone are enough for him to steal all his family, do you still want to stand up for him and seek justice? I really doubt that you have anything to do with Qian What is the relationship between the adults," Shangguan Yeli said coldly.

"Yes, Mr. Zhao, why are you speaking for Mr. Qian? What's more, after Mr. Qian was arrested, Mr. Shangguan didn't even find out his accomplices. Such a big case was a good opportunity to make meritorious service. He Why did you kill Lord Qian? Since Lord Zhao is so concerned about Lord Qian’s death, why not leave this case to you, Lord Zhao. I give you three days to find out the real murderer of Lord Qian. Violation of the time will be dealt with by military law." King Kang's words made Mr. Zhao break into a cold sweat again.

"My lord, my humble minister..." Mr. Zhao trembled with a pale face.

"Master Zhao, there is no need to refuse. This matter is settled. Tomorrow, Lord Zhao will be invited to Longjing Town to assist Lord Shangguan in finding out the evidence of Lord Qian's collusion with the enemy, so that he can explain to the emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince." King Kang did not wait for Zhao. After the lord finished speaking, he waved his hand impatiently, motioning for lord Zhao to back down.

A bean-sized bead of sweat on Mr. Zhao's forehead slowly slid to his eyelids and flowed into his eyeballs, feeling a little stinging, but he didn't care to wipe the sweat away. After pursing the corners of his mouth, he seemed to consider it before saying again : "I honor my life, but Madam Gu made a big riot in the barracks today, killing and injuring many soldiers. Princess Ping, I wonder if the prince knows about it?"

"I will deal with this matter myself, Master Zhao please take care of the matter at hand first." King Kang's eyes were sharp, and he hit Master Zhao as if he had any substance. Master Zhao gave a shock, knowing that Lord Kang was determined If he insisted on protecting Shangguan Yeli and his wife, he didn't know what the prince would do to him, so he bowed his head and retreated.

After Mr. Zhao left, Marriage Qing and Shangguan Yeli both got up, and Lord Kang saluted: "Thank you, Lord."

Kang Wang rolled his eyes, changed his seriousness and sternness just now, stood up from his chair with a smile, and walked to Wanqing's side: "Are you sincerely thanking me?"

Wanqing really thanked King Kang sincerely. The crime she committed was not small. According to the court law, no matter what the reason and purpose, she would be sentenced to severe punishment, especially in such a tense period.

"Naturally it is sincere." Wan Qing replied.

"Thank you, I want to show my sincerity, brother and sister, you also know that I still have to worry about the risk in this matter..." King Kang's eyes were bright and bright, and he circled Wanqing.

Wanqing was so scared by him, she couldn't help but asked: "My lord, what's your plan again? You just got a good impression in my heart, but don't be disgusted by me again."

Kang Wangnai had a sinister smile on his face, cleared his throat and said, "Don't worry, I won't embarrass you, but I just find it strange that you haven't learned riding and archery, brother and sister, how could you beat Cousin Ouyang with a team of hundreds of people?" What about the 500 people who were defeated?"

Wanqing gave Kang Wang a sideways look and said, "So you came up with this idea."

The smile on Kang Wang's face stiffened, and he muttered: "Women are too smart to be cute, brother and sister, you can't just refuse me."

"It's not a refusal, but I can't do it." Wanqing was playing with the small crossbow in her hand, shaking it deliberately in Kang Wang's eyes: "You also know that this kind of thing is well-made, and it can't be done in a while. Okay, besides, your barracks are very chaotic. If I hand over this manufacturing method to the court, someone will leak it to Beirong in the future, and the Beirong people will also make such weapons, then our advantage will be greatly reduced. Your lord I also know that the troops of the Northern Army are much stronger than those of the Great Zhou, if you don't have an advantage in weapons, how can you defeat them?"

"So, I've decided, I don't want your production method, you just give me a thousand and eight hundred ones, and let me build an elite branch." Kang Wang smiled sinisterly, his big black eyes flashed like a flash. Like a profiteer old with accidents.

"Thousands of money? My lord, you should be dreaming. Do you know that the batch of crossbows in Xianggong's hand cost 20 taels of silver per piece. Do you think we are millionaires or have been taken advantage of?" Wanqing whitened Kang Wang angrily. Said at a glance.

"Oh, brother and sister, you just said you want to thank me. Why are you so stingy? You are reluctant to show the production method. You said that you were afraid of revealing the secret and asked you to make it for the court. You said you have no money, and you are too stingy. Well, I know that Jingninghou's mansion is very rich." Kang Wang looked at Wanqing recklessly, with a tone of not giving up until he reached his goal.

"Bullshit, one yard is one yard, you defended our husband and wife, we accept your personal affection, making weapons is a court matter, we have no obligation to take care of it." Shangguan Yeli scolded coldly.

"Hey, it's really a woman who sings and a husband follows. I said, A Li, you are also a member of the border guards. If the army is defeated at the front, you will not be able to keep Longjing Town. Don't you just want to make contributions? This is the last Opportunity, you won't have the heart to see Bei Rong's iron hooves stepping into the land of Da Zhou, right?" King Kang looked at Shangguan Yeli sarcastically and said.

"My lord's words are also very reasonable. In fact, let alone making thousands of eight hundred crossbows, it is not impossible to make tens of thousands of them. However, making weapons is originally a matter of the court. Please The prince is in Gongyangong. Since the court wants to have such a batch of new weapons, then let’s buy them with silver. I don’t want too much. It’s only 20 taels. If a thousand sticks, it’s 2 taels of silver. Finally, first repair the backyard of the Dudu Mansion, and then open a weapon processing workshop in the backyard. Within a month, a thousand crossbows will be made. ?” A shrewd smile flashed in Wanqing’s eyes.

The reason why she killed people with crossbows under Lord Kang's eyes in the military camp was half of the reason was to save her husband, and the other half was because she wanted to exchange this with the court. King Kang seemed to understand her intention The mind actually followed her will.
