After talking about some trivial matters, the two returned to Cangzhou City.
Murong Che had already gone without knowing where he was, but he heard Wu Xin say that Murong Che had returned to Cangzhou City and asked him to leave a room for him.
Ye Fuxun smiled when he heard this. It seemed that Mr. Murong was willing to follow her.
Seeing Ye Fuxun caring so much about Murong Che, Bai Yuxian had no expression on her face, but felt extremely awkward in her heart.
Zhao Yan had just received Bai Ling'er's letter and frowned. As soon as Bai Yuxian and Ye Fuxun walked into the tent, they saw Zhao Yan burning the letter with air-conditioning all over his body.
"What's going on?"
Ye Fuxun raised his eyebrows. That was Bai Ling'er's letter. It was normal to burn the letter to keep it secret, but Zhao Yan's look seemed like something had happened.
"The matter of military rations."
Ye Fuxun remembered that on the way here with Bai Ling'er, they saw the border pushing for military rations. Later, Bai Ling'er took over the job, and it seemed that they had found out.
It was true that there was a shortage of military rations before, but the rations they brought were enough to last for a while. With the capture of Cangzhou, the problem of insufficient military rations was solved. However, the situation that should have existed could not be allowed to disappear.
"Border has asked Beijing for food many times, and the concubine always got it right."
Ye Fuxun thought about this matter. The concubine was still unambiguous on this matter. She would never deliberately deduct military pay, and those ministers would never act like a monster on this kind of thing. It could only be that there was a problem on the road.
Zhao Yan twisted the paper on the case and frowned: "The concubine assigned Mingzhou and Anzhou to supply food to Changzhou. Mingzhou did have some supplies before, but Anzhou didn't send any. If it weren't for
The princess raised this matter, I didn’t even know it existed…”
This is the crime of deceiving the emperor, right... The concubine's decree was not accurately conveyed to the border, and many people were involved.
Bai Yuxian said calmly: "The person in charge of this matter in the court is probably the Prime Minister's protégé Zhou Fu."
"good."
Zhao Yan almost said these two words through gritted teeth.
This time Ye Fuxun also understood that the Prime Minister was part of Bai Yitong's party. In order to please the Prime Minister, his disciples reduced military rations at the border...
Are you so busy doing things for the prime minister? Ye Fuxun spit at this man in his heart and said: "Why don't you take a lesson from him?"
"I'm afraid he has already found a scapegoat, otherwise he wouldn't have done it so blatantly."
Zhao Yan pinched his eyebrows and looked at Bai Yuxian.
"It seems that that person is determined to deal with you."
Bai Yuxian said lightly: "It also depends on whether he has the ability."
Bai Yitong and his party are making frequent moves. When they return victoriously, Bai Yuxian's fame will definitely be unprecedented. Bai Yitong is dormant in the capital, will he be unprepared?
In the past, Bai Yitong could not tolerate Bai Yuxian, but now I am afraid that he has dug countless pits in the capital for him to jump out of. He said he was relaxed and glorious when he returned to the capital, but he did not know that after returning to the capital, the real war had just begun.
The only way to survive is to get rid of Bai Yitong.
That's why Zhao Yan looked at Bai Yuxian like this.
Ye Fuxun also figured out this method at this time, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. Bai Yitong had long wanted to take Bai Yuxian's place. In order to squeeze Bai Yuxian out of the throne, he would do whatever it takes. Now the concubine is still strong, but in the future
Who can tell clearly...
"No matter what, Nanmingyue Palace will be your backing."
Zhao Yan smiled. In fact, he just wanted to say that in the current situation, Bai Yuxian can completely stand on his own. With his reputation, although this move is risky, it is worth a try. In any case, it is better than the man who eats people without vomiting when he returns to the capital.
The bones are at your disposal.
The concubine's love for Bai Yuxian comes from her feelings for the deceased former queen, but the current queen is not a fuel-efficient lamp... Only the power in her own hands is the most real at any time.
"We haven't reached that stage yet. Don't worry, I'm not a soft persimmon who can be manipulated by others."
Bai Yuxian smiled. Zhao Yan was a few years older than him. The two of them had been like brothers since they were young, never shying away from talking.
Bai Yitong is indeed not a threat in his eyes, but the prime minister's party behind Bai Yitong cannot be underestimated... It is not yet a dead end. It is indeed much faster and easier to support the troops with self-respect, but it is too risky and he cannot bear it.
, it’s just simply not necessary.
Ye Fuxun listened to their serious conversation and the atmosphere was a bit depressing, so he smiled and said: "You guys have been busy all day without eating anything, and I'm already hungry."
Zhao Yan hurriedly said: "It's my fault, I didn't entertain you well."
After saying that, he hurriedly went down to ask someone to prepare dinner. Ye Fuxun didn't want to trouble others, so he said he would go to the kitchen to cook it himself.
Bai Yuxian watched Ye Fuxun follow Zhao Yan out to the kitchen with great interest, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
No matter what, he can handle big things, and nothing will happen to Wan'er with him.
As the sky darkened, Ye Fuxun had a sudden idea and asked someone to clear a clearing. He bought some meat, set up a stove in the clearing, lit a fire to barbecue, and cooked a lot of dishes himself to reward the soldiers in the military camp.
them.
During the march, they were very economical on food. Most of the rice they cooked was rice porridge or rice paste, with some side dishes added, but usually without meat, or they were made into white flour steamed buns as dry food, which was convenient for storage and fullness, and tasted good.
Naturally not very good.
Although when the battle was won, Zhao Yan also ordered people to buy wine and meat to reward the three armies, but how could the cooks put so much thought into preparing meals for tens of thousands of people?
Ye Fuxun paid for it out of his own pocket this time. He had collected a lot of money during the previous disaster relief work. In addition, Bai Yuxian had a lot of shops under her that she ran well and her expenses were small. She was unambiguous in using it at this time, and her appearance of being rich and powerful attracted Zhao.
Yan was stunned.
Everyone finally had a feast because of Ye Fuxun's generosity.
"Your Majesty, the food cooked by your Majesty is so delicious."
Zhao Yan grabbed the leg of lamb in his hand and walked to Bai Yuxian to greet him. He was about to attack Bai Yuxian with his oily claws, but Bai Yuxian dodged him.
Bai Yuxian's face looked a little condensed. He had never eaten the food cooked by Ye Fuxun.
Not once! Not once! But let these people get the lead!
Zhao Yan was eating happily. He had private rights. Many of the things Ye Fuxun had made fell into his stomach. At this time, he was almost full. His face was full of comfort, but he noticed that Bai Yuxian
He cast a look that sent chills all over.
Bai Yuxian said coldly: "Is it so delicious?"
Zhao Yan felt that the lamb leg in his hand suddenly lost its flavor, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "It's delicious...My lord, you are so lucky to be able to eat such delicious food every day. You are willing to die!"
If you praise me, you should feel better.
However, Bai Yuxian's eyes became even colder, and Zhao Yan felt that he was about to be stabbed in the neck by Bai Yuxian in the next second.
Ah... Zhao Yan suddenly realized: "Isn't it true that the empress has never cooked for you?"
