Chapter 255
"Father, my son thinks this statement is reasonable. When marching and fighting, food and grass go first. When my Daqi was not ready, the fourth brother was still fighting the enemy bravely on the front line. This is a role model in the army!" Shan Yumao said to Shan Yu Wenhao knew what he was thinking, but he didn't want to keep talking to him, anyway, he was not the favorite son of his father, no matter how he followed him, he couldn't make him like himself, so he just told the truth , but also give yourself a good reputation.

Sure enough, as soon as this remark came out, it was tantamount to embarrassing Shan Yu Wenhao in public. His face darkened for a moment, and he stood up quickly, wanting to shake his sleeves and leave. Then he resisted the impulse, sat down, and asked, "Prince?" ,What do you think?"

"Father, please be safe and don't be impatient."

Shan Yukun comforted hypocritically: "I think what Shang Shu said is very true, but I have been in Daqi for several years. Natural disasters have occurred one after another. A few years ago, the capital was turned upside down again, almost destroying the capital. If it weren't for the father You mobilize the national treasury to buy the best green bricks to build houses for the people, and our Daqi treasury cannot be so empty."

"What do you mean, Your Highness?"

The Minister of the Ministry of War said in doubt, saying so much nonsense, didn't he just want to say that he had no money and no food?It is said that the treasury of Daqi has done practical things for the people, but at that time, remember that the emperor asked all the officials to contribute, and the treasury did not put much money into it.

"I don't have any special ideas, everything must be decided by my father."

Shan Yukun kicked the ball to Shan Yuwenhao and said, "Father, I respect your decision and will do as you please."

"Since that's the case, I will hand over all the matters concerning food and grass on the front line to the crown prince." Shan Yu Wenhao got off the donkey along the slope.

Seeing that Shan Yu Wenhao had made up his mind, everyone had no choice but to say, "Your Majesty is wise." Even if Shan Yucheng, headed by the Minister of the Ministry of War, refused to accept, there was nothing he could do.

While Shan Yukun was feeling complacent, an eunuch came in outside and said, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent battle report from the front line!"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but tremble in their hearts. If someone looked at the expression on Shan Yu Wenhao's face at this time, they would find that his eyes were full of cruel smiles.

Hurry up for eight hundred miles, it must be Shan Yucheng who can't stand it anymore and came to call for help, so now that he has seized his military power, it is taken for granted. Since you can't, I will send someone else, don't you dare? Occupying a position and not delegating power?

But as soon as the battle report was unfolded, I was immediately dumbfounded. This is not a call for help. It is clearly a victory document. This is Shan Yucheng's intention to play for himself, right? Didn't he deliberately let himself have a happy time?

Seeing Shan Yu Wenhao's uncertain face, Prince Shan Yu Kun asked excitedly: "Father, what happened, is it..."

Shan Yu Wenhao turned his head and glanced at him, threw the battle report in his hand under his footsteps, and said angrily: "Look for yourself."

Shan Yukun glanced at Shan Yuwenhao suspiciously, picked up the battle report, glanced at it briefly, the battle report in his hand fell to the ground, and murmured: "No, how is this possible..."

Shan Yumao picked up the battle report, looked at it roughly, and then said loudly: "We have won, King Cheng has won..."

"What..." Minister of the Ministry of War looked at the battle report in Shan Yumao's hand in disbelief and asked, "Isn't His Royal Highness Mao just joking?" With the state treasury only giving so little military rations, King Cheng actually still cooks with thugs, This is really incredible.

"Okay, if you win, you win. Are you so happy?" Shan Yukun was dissatisfied with the praise of Shan Yucheng from the people in the court, and said angrily: "The fourth brother is an ever-victorious general. If he can't beat Chi Guo Those little thieves, that's strange."

Everyone couldn't help but despise him in their hearts: To put it lightly, you don't even think about how much military rations you gave this time when King Rencheng went out to fight, so that you can still win the battle, no one can change it.

I thought so, but no one dared to say it.

Of course, Hongxue didn't know what happened in Kyoto. As soon as she was on the road, she flashed into the space and walked forward by the carriage. It was not until dinner time that she came out and leaned against the wall of the carriage, pretending to have just woken up, and stretched her arms. Stretching out his arms, rubbing his eyes, he asked the coachman, "Where are we now?"

"Return to the king, Miss, the Wusha River is ahead, and after crossing the Wusha River, you will reach the territory of Tanzhou. After another fifteen days or so, you will be able to reach the capital." The coachman is a veteran, and Shan Yucheng specially sent him This is the only thing Xue used to drive the car, and Shan Yucheng would never give in. He couldn't bear to let his daughter-in-law ride back to Beijing alone.

When Hongxue heard this, she knew that the coachman was taking another road. She had never passed the Wusha River when she came to the battlefield.

"Miss, it's too late. Shall we find an inn to rest for the night." The coachman asked respectfully. He was the one who was dragged back from death by Hongxue, and he had a special gratitude to her.

Looking at the tired look of the coachman, Hongxue nodded. In order to rush back to the capital as soon as possible, he hadn't had a good rest for ten days. His eyes were obviously black and blue, and his eyes were bloodshot. Give him space water to drink every day, and this physique cannot be improved in a day or two.

Thinking of this, Hongxue nodded and said: "Then hurry up and see if you can cross the river before dark, then find an inn to rest, if not, stay overnight at a common people's house."

The coachman nodded, but there was no human habitation at all along the way, until he saw the rolling Wusha River, let alone a person, he didn't even meet a living thing.

"Miss, this... how do we cross the river?" The coachman was a little anxious.

At this moment, Hongxue had already changed into a man's attire. It was more convenient to wear men's attire when going out. Seeing the coachman staring at him blankly, he smiled and said, "Call me son from now on. Let's walk to the side and see if we can meet him." people." Faced with this situation, Hongxue had no choice.

The two walked sideways for quite a while, and finally met two men who were looking for hoes.Hongxue hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Two big brothers."

"What's the matter with this son?" The two were taken aback for a moment, but then they smiled honestly, and the older man among them spoke.

"That's right, we want to cross the river, but why is there no one at the ferry?" Hongxue pointed to the ferry not far away.

"This young man looks like he is from another place. This is the flood season, and the river is very windy and rough, so no one's ferry dares to go..." The man hurriedly smiled.

"Then when will the ferry be available?" Hongxue frowned.The water here is much more urgent than Pingjiang, even if she has the space to protect herself, she dare not swim easily, not to mention she is not alone now.

"It's hard to say, it's better if the storm calms down. However, according to the usual experience, there are few calm times this month..."

"Is there no other way to cross the river?"
