Chapter 1157 Warning
Xu Junlou remembered all these words in his heart and said, "Uncle, don't worry, my nephew will act carefully."
After saying that, Xu Junlou suddenly changed his mind and lowered his voice: "Uncle, have you heard of it? Something seems to be happening on the Crescent Sea Pass?"
Xu Changqing looked swaying, and did not answer Xu Junlou's words, but asked back: "Where did you get the news?"
Xu Junlou smiled shyly and said, "My nephew has always been the head of the Zhan Shi Mansion before. There is always some news that can be heard from the East Palace. It is said that recently, Your Highness has sent several official letters, all of which are from the Gansu and Shaanxi region and the Crescent Guard region. The Ministry of Revenue has also received an order from Your Highness to mobilize food and grass from all over the country?"
“I received it.”
Xu Changqing nodded and said, "And we have already begun to make arrangements. According to Your Highness's order, the main purpose of grain and grass is to purchase and solicitation as the supplement. The most basic requirement is to not affect the normal life of the people and not cause excessive fluctuations in local prices. The price increase in the grain market cannot exceed 25%. In addition, the grain and grass collected are sent locally to Ganzhou and Shaanxi nearby, and there will be a special person to receive it into the warehouse."
Xu Junlou said excitedly: "Uncle, is it going to fight?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Junlou saw Xu Changqing looking at him expressionlessly, his eyes were scary.
"Uncle, why are you looking at me like this?" Xu Junlou asked in fear.
"What position do you hold?" Xu Changqing asked back.
"Shi Shifu Mansion Chief."
Xu Junlou replied without thinking, "I will take over the new position tomorrow and become the prefect of the capital."
"Which of these two positions is related to borders and military affairs?"
After Xu Changqing finished speaking, he slapped the table and scolded: "I have told you so many times. Don't worry about things that shouldn't be cared for, don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked, don't listen to news that shouldn't be heard, you didn't take a single word to your heart!"
"You are the Minister of the Zhan Mansion. Even if you become the governor of the capital, does this national event have anything to do with you? Is it your turn to inquire about this?"
This was the first time Xu Junlou saw his uncle so angry and furious. He felt wronged, but he still said, "I'm sorry uncle, my nephew realized his mistake."
Seeing Xu Junlou lowering his head and not daring to look at his appearance, Xu Changqing could not vent his anger. Finally, he sighed and said, "There have been many people in the court that have received rumors about this matter. Everyone can guess some things. After all, such a major event as food and grass mobilization cannot be hidden, but do you know why everyone pretends to be deaf and dumb, as if nothing has happened and nothing knows?"
Xu Junlou didn't say anything.
Xu Changqing said: "It's because the East Palace has not announced it."
"If you don't talk about the secrets of military affairs, your highness will say that it is a secret. Whoever is gossiping about the government at the least is arbitrary discussion, or a serious matter is suspected of colluding with the enemy. How many brains do you have to ask about these things?"
This time, Xu Junlou was really scared.
He hurriedly said, "Uncle, my nephew definitely has no intention, and my nephew is just curious, so he asked when facing my uncle, "If I were outside, no matter how stupid my nephew was, I would never say it."
"So now I'm teaching you these principles, otherwise you can go to the prison to reflect!"
