Mu Ning immediately looked back and glared at Qingxue.
Qingxue waved her hands quickly, "Miss, I didn't say anything!"
Mu Ning narrowed her eyes and began to gnash her teeth, "Fat fox!"
At that time, the rich man was eating secretly in the kitchen of his house.
Suddenly, it felt a blast of cold air, and it sneezed out, all of which sprayed on the plate of fragrant pork belly in front of it.
The rich man turned his head and looked around, seeing no one around, so he wiped his nose, unfortunately glanced at the plate of pork belly, then jumped off the table and left.
Because adults are mysophobic, meat stained with sneeze water must not be eaten.
As soon as the rich man here went out, Luo Qingliu came in.
He didn't know where he came from, with a straw on his head, and he looked like a starving ghost reincarnated. When he saw the large plate of pork belly on the table, his mouth immediately started to water.
Luo Qingliu ate it when he caught it.
Dongfang Yan followed in and immediately became furious when he saw Luo Qingliu's greedy look, which showed no trace of elegance.
"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat! How are things going?" Dongfang Yan tapped Luo Qingliu's forehead with a finger and asked with an angry look.
At this moment, outside the city gate.
Mu Ning was really depressed. She had worked so hard, traveled thousands of miles, and detoured to Xiliang with a big belly to borrow food and grass. She originally wanted to give Rong Chu a big surprise.
Just imagine, if Rong Chu's food suddenly fell from the sky when she was extremely anxious, then he would definitely be very happy!
But now, all her plans have been ruined by the rich man's cheating fox!
Rong Chu couldn't help but feel funny when he saw Mu Ning grunting and pouting.
But in this situation, he didn't have time to appease Mu Ning's emotions.
Because the soldiers there kept silent when they saw Rong Chu, thinking that the truth of the matter had been known to them.
Cao Xinyuan and his gang are constantly adding fuel and jealousy to fan the flames.
If Rong Chu doesn't speak anymore, I'm afraid there will really be a riot.
After all, not all of the 200,000 troops he led were trained by him like the Black Wind Cavalry, half of them were troops under the command of other generals.
If rumors spread among the army that food and fodder have been exhausted, it will definitely cause turmoil. If Beijin launches a sneak attack, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Why, Prince Gong, if you don't speak, you are acknowledging that the food and grass are gone. This is your fault. There is no food. You want your brothers to die in vain!"
Cao Xinyuan touched his chin and glanced at Rong Chu sinisterly.
"Everyone, His Royal Highness Prince Gong has always been true to his word. I hope you will not listen to rumors and do things that disrupt the morale of the military!"
When Eunuch Pu saw that there were more and more people outside the city gate, he also knew that it was not an option to continue like this, so he quickly stood up and offered words of comfort.
But obviously some people didn't buy it, "Then open the granary and let us all take a look. As long as we see that there is food, brothers can feel at ease!"
"Yes! We joined the army to fight. We can't die on the battlefield. We must starve to death first!" Some of the people who made trouble were arranged by Cao Xinyuan. These people couldn't wait for the trouble to get bigger and bigger.
Seeing that everyone was agitated and Eunuch Pu couldn't hold it down, Mu Ning was so anxious that she grabbed Rong Chu, but Rong Chu remained expressionless.
Rong Chu squinted his eyes and looked coldly at the indignant sergeants.
The natural aura of a king in his body carried a powerful pressure, and for a moment everyone present felt a chilling and bone-chilling feeling of fear.
"Since we know that you are here to fight, you should naturally know that the military order is like a mountain! Leaving the military camp privately like you did today has violated military law!" Rong Chu's voice was as cold as his face.
"Military law? Humph! Your Highness Prince Gong, are you using your power to suppress others? You are the commander, so naturally you will not starve, but brothers are all going to the battlefield, so don't talk so much. Three days are here, you can
If you can’t even get food and grass, you are not qualified to be the coach anymore!”
Cao Xin saw that the time was ripe and immediately sneered and shouted harshly.
Everyone on Rong Chu's side was furious when they saw Cao Xinyuan being so aggressive.
But Rong Chu didn't issue an order, and no one dared to stand up.
"Who said there is no food and grass?"
However, at this moment, as soon as Cao Xinyuan finished speaking, a rougher voice sounded.
Mu Ning immediately turned her head to look, and saw a rough-looking, exceptionally tall man striding towards her.
"Brother Du!" Mu Ning's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw the person coming.
"Ah Ning, you're here too, I'm not too late!" Du Zilong also smiled when he saw Mu Ning, and even came over to pat Mu Ning's shoulder without noticing.
Rong Chu frowned and stood in front of Mu Ning.
Seeing that Uncle Rong's expression was wrong, Mu Ning quickly pulled Rong Chu away and introduced him in his ear, "Brother Du is Prince Leng's martial arts master. I live in Xiliang, and Brother Du is very good to me!"
Rong Chu's expression softened slightly.
Du Zilong clasped his fists at Rong Chu, "I have met His Highness Prince Gong! At the order of my master, Du has transported 1,800 carts of grain and fodder. I hope His Highness Prince Gong will send someone to check and accept it!"
"There is General Laodu!" Rong Chu raised his eyebrows almost invisible when he heard this, and glanced at Mu Ning from the corner of his eye.
Although he learned that Mu Ning helped him borrow food and grass, he didn't know how much it was, and he always thought that Mu Ning could only get a few dozen carts, which was just enough to meet his urgent needs.
Apparently he was also shocked by these 1,800 carts of food and grass, which was enough to guarantee a month's supply for an army of 200,000 people!
Mu Ning winked at Rong Chu mischievously, with a proud look on her face.
She was already looking forward to it. If Uncle Rong went to the granary to check again later, he would be even more shocked.
Du Zilong had a loud voice, and everyone present heard his shout.
Cao Xinyuan's face suddenly changed. He still didn't want to believe it, and said angrily, "Prince Gong, don't think that if you bring someone here to talk nonsense, the brothers will believe you!"
"Whether you believe it or not, of course, seeing it with your own eyes is believing it! If General Cao doesn't believe it, you can go and see if it's true!" Mu Ning deliberately pretended to be innocent and said with a smile.
"Look, of course you have to look!" Cao Xinyuan wanted to get angry, but when he saw Mu Ning's beautiful little face, he still managed to suppress the anger in his heart.
He immediately waved his hand and asked one of his men to follow him.
"Xiao Puzi, you go with General Du!" Rong Chu looked back, his phoenix eyes slowly narrowed, and he looked at the sergeants, "Do you also want to see if I have deceived you?"
The sergeants looked at each other with ashen faces, and no one dared to say a word.
Because they all know that in front of everyone, it is impossible for Prince Gong to deceive everyone with deception. The fact can only be that food and grass are really delivered!
Not long after, Eunuch Pu came back, and his face was beaming with joy. When he saw Rong Chu, he immediately reported respectfully, "My lord, these are indeed the best military rations and hay!"
When the sergeants heard this, their legs went weak and they knelt down on the ground.
They left the military camp privately today, openly provoked Prince Gong, and spread rumors. They have violated military law. If they go back this time, they will probably die.
Mu Ning looked at those people, rolled her eyes, and suddenly said with a smile, "Your Majesty, they must have listened to the rumors, and that's why they did such unruly things. Your Majesty should severely punish those who disturb the morale of the army."
Man, please give these brothers a chance to change their ways, with a small punishment but a big warning!"
When the soldiers saw that Princess Gong would intercede for them, they all knelt down on the ground, lowered their heads, and waited uneasily for her fate.
Rong Chu, however, only had a cold face. After a long while, he said, "Anyone who disturbs the morale of the army will be punished by death! Now I think you are being deceived by others. You can avoid the death penalty, but you cannot escape the living crime. Go back and lead the army with fifty sticks!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" When the sergeants saw that they had escaped and died, they all wiped cold sweat and cast grateful glances at Mu Ning.
At this moment, Cao Xinyuan's men had also reported to him, and his face was uglier than death for a moment.
"No! Impossible! How can you have food and grass? There is obviously no food in the imperial capital -" When Cao Xinyuan thought of the bet between him and Rong Chu, he couldn't help but feel fear, and he actually said what was on his mind regardless of it.
"What's going on over there in the Imperial Capital?" Rong Chu asked coldly.
"No, it's nothing!" Cao Xinyuan realized that he had made a mistake. He quickly shut up, his face was ashen, and he did not dare to say more.
Because he knew that once he told the imperial capital about the deliberate delay in distributing food and grass, the 200,000 troops on the front line might become resentful of the royal family.
If Rong Chu continues to instigate him, he will most likely be killed back in the imperial capital.
As a result, the royal family was furious and his life was over.
"Your Majesty, does this general mean that the delay in receiving grain and grass from Beijing is because the imperial court deliberately did not send it?"
However, just because Cao Xinyuan didn't say anything, it didn't mean that Mu Ning would let him go.
