Chapter 875: Slate(1/2)

"Who's talking too much?"

Guan Ning turned around and asked.

It was obvious that Princess Xuanning took out these jewelry and asked him to sell them after she found out about her distress.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I thought the princess was a bit bored, so I chatted with her for a few words..."

Little Shanvino's opening.

Princess Xuanning shook her head and pushed the wooden box towards him again.

The meaning is obvious.

Guan Ning was slightly moved.

The wooden box was not big, and it was not full. He looked through it and found a few gold necklaces and bracelets, as well as some jade pendants and other ornaments. One of the gold necklaces was still a little worn.

How much is this?

For ordinary people, it may be quite a lot.

But she is a princess.

In comparison, it is too little, even pitiful.

Which princess is not a beautiful woman with beautiful clothes and food?

This also shows that she is really not welcomed in the palace...

Guan Ning noticed that she didn't even wear any jewelry. She was a princess who didn't even have a dowry when she got married, and no one even gave it to her... This should be all she had!

But at this moment, she just heard about it and took it out to help herself through the difficulties.

This is what makes Guan Ning most emotional.

Although she is very arrogant, she is also very kind.

"Put it away so that you don't have to sell your things."

Guan Ning said, covering the wooden box and returning it to her.

But she didn't answer, but stepped back again, with a stubborn look on her face.

"Xiaoxiang, put it away for the princess."

"yes."

Princess Xuanning is still insisting.

"I understand what you mean, put it away."

Guan Ning said again, and she reluctantly let go.

This daughter-in-law is not bad, she knows how to be cold and hot.

"Send the princess back."

"yes."

Xiaoxiang came over to help.

At this time, Xuanning took out a card, which was written on it in advance, with three words... I won't leave.

Then, she sat down next to him.

"All right."

Anyway, they are all married, so there is nothing to avoid.

"Continue the discussion just now."

Guan Ning said: "Just do as I say, first take out all our savings and settle the payment. Our Zhenbei Palace will not default on other people's money."

"Um."

At this point, Butler Wu had no choice but to accept it.

"In addition, I want to ask you something, and you must tell it truthfully."

"You asked."

Guan Ning said: "Is the gap in military expenditure really huge?"

“Big!”

Butler Wu said: "That is an army of nearly 200,000 people. Not to mention other things, it will cost a lot to eat and drink every day. There is one more thing I want to tell you. This is also the latest news."

"Actually, before the transfer order was issued, there was another secret order for the Zhenbei Army. If anyone is willing to stay in the New Army and accept the command of Zhenbei General Guan Zian, he can have his rank upgraded on the original basis, and his salary can also be increased.

.”

Hear this.

Guan Ning was slightly startled.

Sure enough, this method was used, which was not unexpected by him.

"Some of it is left behind. Guan Zian is very good at playing the favor card and scheming, but that's only a very small part."

Butler Wu said: "But if there is a lack of military support, problems may arise over time."

"Um."

Guan Ning nodded.

A good horse needs good grass.

This is their method.

Before the Zhenbei Palace banned it, the Zhenbei Army could legitimately remain, so it was transferred out of its garrison, and then slowly disintegrated.

Without military support, sooner or later it will be disbanded or annexed.

Without the Zhenbei Army, the Zhenbei Palace would be like a tiger without its claws, without any deterrent power...

Thoughts flashed through.

Guan Ning said: "The Zhenbei Army must not disperse!"

"But judging from the current situation... I'm afraid we can't afford the huge military expenditure and we can't come up with so much money."

Guan Ning said directly: "If you don't have money, just sell your property."

"family property?"

Butler Wu said: "We don't have any property in Shangjing City, we only have this house, and there is nothing valuable."

Guan Ning said directly: "This house itself is the most valuable."

"You want it?"

Everyone was shocked.

"No, this can't be done!"

Butler Wu shook his head hurriedly and said: "Although the focus of our Zhenbei Palace is in Yunzhou in the north and we do not operate it in the Jing Palace, we absolutely cannot sell it."

"This is a reward from Emperor Shizu, and it is also a symbol of our palace. If it is sold, what will happen?"

"Yes, you can't have such thoughts!"

Jin Yue was also shocked.

"Why can't it be sold? This is just a house, what does it mean?"

Guan Ning said: "What is really important is not the house, but the people. As long as our palace rises again, even if it is a hut, it will still be the palace!"

"The Zhenbei Army is the most important. If the Zhenbei Army is gone, what will happen if there is an empty mansion?"

Everyone looked at Guan Ning, obviously shocked by these words.

Even Princess Xuanning is like this.

It makes some sense if you think about it carefully, but mentally you can't accept it.

This is like the home you have lived in for a long time, how can you be willing to sell it easily?

"Things are dead, people are alive."

Guan Ning said: "Now we need money, selling this house is the fastest way."

"But……"

"no."

Butler Wu shook his head and said: "This matter is too big and we need to discuss it with the princess."

"My mother has enough troubles, so why bother? I am the heir, and I have the final say."

Guan Ning made a decision directly.

These people's ideas are too old-fashioned.

Just this empty house costs a lot of money to maintain every month, and they don't have many people, so it always feels deserted.
To be continued...
