Chapter 292: information

   Mu Yangling poked Qi Haoran's waist and asked, "What are you angry about?"

Qi Haoran opened his mouth, he didn't know what he was angry about, but he was just angry.

He knew about Mu Yangling going to Xingyuan Mansion to sell sheep. Because of the sudden heavy snowfall, he was still in a hurry. He had already taken someone out to find it. Who knew that Mu Yangling and the others had turned back on the trail and missed it. , made him worry for a long time in vain.

Mu Yangling didn't know about these things, he couldn't blame her, but everyone came back for seven or eight days, but he didn't mean to look at him at all. When did he come back from Hanzhong Mansion, didn't he inform her the first time?

Qi Haoran only felt sour and astringent in his heart, but he couldn't say it.

If Mu Yangling knew that he would be angry for this, it would also appear that he was too petty.

Qi Haoran was sulking for a while, and then asked, "Why did you come to see me?"

Although his anger was a bit big, Mu Yangling only thought that his rebellious period had come, and smiled indifferently: "I came to you to ask something."

"Hanzhong Mansion is fine, why is martial law again?"

Qi Haoran only thought she knew it from the soldiers, and did not hide it from her, "My eldest brother is now in Hanzhong Mansion, and he was assassinated seven days ago."

"Brother Qi, are you all right?"

"It's alright, even the little ones dared to get an axe in front of the door and caught two alive, the others all died."

"That should also be the place where the martial law Hanzhong Mansion is connected to the Jingzhao Mansion. Why is Xingzhou Mansion under martial law here?"

Qi Haoran's eyes darkened, "Because people came from Xingzhou Prefecture."

Mu Yangling also reacted, was silent for a while, and asked, "Did you make a mistake? Brother Qi is only a third-rank general, the court, and he didn't hinder others."

Qi Haoran never suppressed his temper in front of Mu Yangling. Hearing this, he said angrily: "If they had this kind of consciousness, Da Zhou's country would not have lost so much. It was against General Yuan before. Shake the Lord, and my eldest brother has only recovered a Hanzhong mansion now."

Mu Yangling felt that something was wrong. The emperor of Da Zhou was a little nervous, but not stupid. Whether it was from a national perspective or a personal perspective, it would be more beneficial for him to train Qi Xiuyuan.

Not to mention, the two functions of quelling the grievances of the domestic people and suppressing General Yuan are worthy of the great Zhou Emperor to reuse Qi Xiuyuan.

But seeing Qi Haoran so angry, Mu Yangling said with some lack of confidence: "It's a misunderstanding, there are only 50,000 to 60,000 people under Qi's hands, which is incomparable to those generals who often have hundreds of thousands of mercenaries. Emperor Even if you want to attack the general, it will not change to Big Brother Qi."

Qi Haoran stared at her with wide eyes in surprise.

"Did I say something wrong?" Seeing Qi Haoran looking at him like this, Mu Yangling felt even less confident.

Qi Haoran lowered his head and smiled, "Who told you that we suspect that the emperor started?" He restrained his smile and said, "If the sage wants the life of the eldest brother, it is simple, if the eldest brother is unwilling, it is simple. I have to go back to Beijing."

"Who is not the emperor?"

"There are people in the DPRK who want to figure out the holy will. Besides, the eldest brother took back the Hanzhong mansion, which made the relationship between Jin Guo and Da Zhou deteriorate a lot, the border conflict intensified, and the dispute between the DPRK and China was even more severe, which hurt a lot. People's interests, not to mention, our goal is not just Hanzhong Mansion."

In other words, this is a political struggle, and it has not yet reached the point where the ruler and the minister are suspicious.

"Do you think it could be General Yuan? Big Brother Qi's re-use by the emperor also affected his status." It wasn't Mu Yangling's villain's heart, but she felt that a person with no foundation could change from a soldier to a soldier in more than ten years. Climbing to the position of the first-rank general would be impossible without a snack machine.

Da Zhou is no better than the Southern Song Dynasty in the previous life. The Southern Song Dynasty in the previous life lost control of most of Jiangnan when it moved to the south. Only soldiers, with a wave of a big hand, can pull up an army and go to guard the frontier for the country and the people.

Even when Da Zhou fled to the south, the country's army still resisted the Jin soldiers in an orderly manner. Although the imperial court's control over the army gradually weakened, it still held their lifeline.

The army's food, salaries, weapons, horses and fodder are all from the state treasury, unlike the Southern Song Dynasty, where the generals almost kept the soldiers themselves.

The fact that General Yuan has relied on the Shen family to support the army has also been a matter of the past few years. That's the way, the materials of the Shen family have to be transferred to the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Ministry of War, and cannot be directly handed over to General Yuan. This kind of act is called donation.

Otherwise, if the army is raised by the Shen family and General Yuan, then is the army owned by the imperial court or their two families?

Qi Haoran said that he wanted to raise horses for the army, but in fact the horse farm was under his name. If he wanted to put it into the battlefield in the future, he would either have to report to the Ministry of War and ask for money to buy a horse from him, or he could only ask Fan Zijin to send a batch of money to the Ministry of War. , After the formalities, the Ministry of War will send the money back, which is regarded as the money to buy the horse, and the horse can be put into use.

Otherwise, if such a large number of horses were thrown into the battlefield but failed to reach the Ministry of War, Qi Xiuyuan could be overwhelmed by the impeachment of the censor.

Of course, Qi Haoran did not need to report when he armed his own guards.

Therefore, Mu Yangling suspected that it was General Yuan’s hand.

Qi Haoran expressed his anger at Mu Yangling's speculation about his idol, and said, "Don't think of General Yuan as those civil servants who are diligent in camping. Most of the troops living in the Jin Kingdom at the border, otherwise, even if they infiltrate the Hanzhong Palace with the tens of thousands of people, they will not be able to defend the Hanzhong Palace after they are attacked from inside and outside."

"All kinds of situations are possible. Didn't I assume all the situations? I haven't assumed that it was your father's fault. The relationship between your father and son has been bad, and it can even be said that it has deteriorated. It looks like they are inseparable, what if your father sent someone in a confused mind when he blows the pillow wind?"

Qi Haoran opened his mouth and looked at Mu Yangling without speaking.

Mu Yangling jumped up, "No way, I just said it out of the blue."

"Of course not, a civil servant who doesn't even have a lot of skills as a servant, how could he send someone to kill the eldest brother?" But he did not rule out the news that he had betrayed the eldest brother.

Qi Haoran's face was a little gloomy.

Mu Yangling didn't know what he was thinking, so he patted his chest in shock, and said, "It scared me to death, by the way, I came to ask if you could help a friend of mine get a clearance document, he wants to Go to Hanzhong House to sell sheep."

"What is his identity?"

"The butcher of Xingyuan House."

"Selling sheep makes money like this? Is it worth his risk to go to Hanzhong Mansion?" You must know that Hanzhong Mansion is under martial law now, and both the army and the yamen are going back and forth to check. Don't use too many means, so that there are many less businessmen coming and going to Hanzhong House now.

But the army can't control the place, and Qi Haoran's heart is not easy to let out.

"One trip back and forth to get rid of the cost can make twice as much money."

Qi Haoran looked at her strangely and asked, "Then why don't you do it yourself?"

Mu Yangling said helplessly: "I think so, but I can't live without me at home, and it's too hard to run outside. It's enough to do this kind of business once a year."

Qi Haoran looked at her like a fool, "Who told you to pull the sheep to Xingyuan Mansion? Don't they want to sell sheep? You can go to Hanzhong Mansion to collect it and sell it to them. You come from Hanzhong Mansion. Go to freedom, who dares to knock you on the baton?"
