Confiscated and exiled, the down-and-out general became the queen

Mr. Meng pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty, General Lin is guarding Danxia Pass, and Chaoyang Kingdom will definitely not be able to defeat him. The most important thing over there now is food and grass, right?"

Xiao Rende nodded, "Yes, what General Lin mentioned in the letter was about food and grass."

It turned out that when Chaoyang State learned that the barbarians were going to attack the border, it decided to attack Danxia Pass.

It can be said that they attacked the Yuan Dynasty almost at the same time.

Of course, Xiao Lengyue must have contributed to this as well.

She asked Chaoyang Kingdom to send troops as well, just to prevent Lin Beicheng from leaving Danxia Pass.

There are no available military generals in the court now, so Xiao Rende can only send the Leng family back to the border, otherwise the border will be broken.

Things were pretty much as Xiao Lengyue had guessed. At this moment, Xiao Rende just wanted someone from the Leng family.

But when he thought about how he had brought them to the border before, he hesitated for a moment.

He looked at the ministers below, and after seeing that there were no military commanders, he said, "First, tell us how to solve the problem of food and grass at Danxia Pass."

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned and lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.

When Xiao Rende saw this, he was so angry that he threw the memorial in his hand down. Just as he was about to curse, he heard Mr. Meng say, "Your Majesty, calm down.

As for food and fodder, we can collect taxes in advance."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the ministers looked at Mr. Meng with expressions of disbelief.

Mr. Meng saw their looks and asked directly, "Otherwise, do you have any other ideas?"

When these words were spoken, the ministers were speechless.

When Xiao Rende heard this, he said, "Give the order to collect this year's taxes first and then send them to Danxia Pass."

When the official announcing the decree heard this, he bowed and said, "Yes."

After Xiao Rende finished speaking, he asked, "Where is the checkpoint over there?

Who should we send? And what about the food and fodder?"

When Mr. Meng heard this, he bowed and said, “There are soldiers guarding the border, so there shouldn’t be any problems.

As for food and fodder, don’t we have some in reserve? We can keep them there for a few days, and then send them over when the tax revenue is collected.”

When Xiao Rende heard this, he felt that what Mr. Meng said made sense, so he nodded and said, "That's it for now."

Originally, he thought that Chen Bing could hold on for a while, but within a few days, an urgent report was delivered.

When he saw that Marshal Chen Bing was defeated and injured, he summoned his ministers overnight.

When Mr. Meng heard the news, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at the man in black and said, "It looks like it won't take a few days for the master to break through the border."

The man in black bowed and said, "The master said that you should disrupt the court a little more, and then you can leave the Yuan Dynasty and go back."

Mr. Meng nodded, "Got it."

After the man in black finished speaking, he thought for a while and said, "The master knows that there is a woman in your house, and he told you to deal with her yourself."

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Meng looked at the man in black fiercely, frowned and said, "I won't take her back to the barbarians, is this not okay?"

The man in black was slightly stunned when he heard this. "The owner didn't say anything about this. He just said that you can't bring it back and let you solve it yourself."

Mr. Meng nodded, and after the man in black left, he looked towards the yard where Chunxiang was, sighed lightly, and a trace of reluctance flashed in his eyes.

He had thought before that when he returned, he would not be able to take her back with him, so he left her alone in the yard and did not dare to have too much contact with her.

Now, it’s great that I can protect her life.

At this moment, Mr. Meng didn't know that the person he was thinking about had already left the yard.

After Mr. Meng calmed down, he went out again.

The housekeeper looked at him wearing his official uniform and about to go out, and asked suspiciously, "Master, what are you doing?"

"Enter the palace."

After he finished speaking, he drove away, leaving the housekeeper standing there in a daze, muttering, "Didn't you just come back?"

While Xiao Rende was waiting for the ministers to enter the palace, he was also thinking about what to do about the border issues. After much thought, he could only ask the Leng family for help.

He thought about it and realized that the others did not have the ability to stop the attack of the barbarians.

When Xiao Quanzi saw the ministers arrive, he slowly walked in and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, everyone is here."

When Xiao Rende heard this, he got up and left.

When he arrived at the hall, he saw that everyone was there. After the ceremony, he went straight to the point and said, "Chen Bing was defeated and injured and fell into a coma. Now, there is no marshal guarding the border. Who of you is willing to go?"

As soon as Xiao Rende finished speaking, the hall fell silent.

He looked at the ministers below, his eyes filled with disappointment.

"Mr. Meng, do you have a suitable candidate?"

When Mr. Meng heard this, he was slightly stunned, shook his head and said, "I don't have a suitable candidate either."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Rende said in a cold voice: "Official, order them to go to the desolate land and send the Leng family to the border. Tell them that after investigation, I found that they are not guilty and need to return to the border immediately."

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Meng was stunned and blurted out: "Your Majesty, this is unacceptable. If the Leng family is released, doesn't it mean that the previous matter was a misunderstanding of Your Majesty?"

Xiao Rende knew this truth, but compared to this, it was more important to guard the border.

"Give the order. It's more important to defend the border than these."

After saying this, he pondered for a while and said: "Hurry up and send them to the border as soon as possible.

Tell them to find a way to hold on until the food and grass are collected. "

After saying that, he looked at the ministers below and asked, "Do you have any objections?"

Seeing that the ministers were silent, Xiao Rende waved his hand and said, "Dismiss the court."

After saying this, he left the court with a somewhat dejected look on his back.

Mr. Meng looked at his back, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes, but when he thought of what the man in black said, he didn't say anything else.

Even if the Leng family was released, it would be of no avail. There was no food in the treasury, and it was only a matter of time before the barbarians invaded.

At this moment, Mr. Meng had no idea that the border had been taken over by Song Ye.

Everything happening in the military camp had been blocked by the Song family army, and the battle situation, with Song Ye taking over, fell into a truce between the two sides.

The eunuch who announced the decree rode as fast as he could to the desolate land. After announcing the decree, he looked at Leng Shaobin and said, "Old General, His Majesty asked you to rush to the border as soon as possible. Before the food and grass are gathered, find a way to hold on."

Leng Shaobin was slightly stunned when he heard this, and frowned and asked: "Convening?"

The eunuch who announced the decree waved his hands to the guards on both sides, and after they left, he whispered, "There is no food in the treasury. Your Majesty has ordered that you go collect the people's taxes this year first."

As soon as these words came out, Leng Shaobin's face changed instantly, and he said in a deep voice: "The harvest season is still several months away. If you go to collect taxes from the people now, aren't you forcing them to starve to death?"

When the eunuch who announced the imperial decree heard this, he pretended not to hear it and bowed, saying, "General, please pack up and leave. I'll take my leave."
