The princess is farming with her baby, daddy, come find me soon

There was a gleam of light in Zuo Xiang's eyes. Although he was the one who made this suggestion, he did not want to offend anyone, nor did he want to drag his own people into trouble.

The right prime minister did not say anything, as this job was not that easy.

In the end, it was Duke Dingguo who spoke.

"Your Majesty, I feel that the princes are old enough to take on important tasks. This is a good opportunity for them to exercise their abilities. Your Majesty can let them take charge, so that the people can feel at ease."

Emperor Chonghe thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he asked Liu Changfu to pass on the order to call over several princes and the Minister of Works.

Emperor Chonghe had nine sons, but only five survived.

Among them were the eldest prince and the ninth prince born to the Empress, the second prince born to Concubine Shu, the fifth prince born to Concubine Liu, and the eighth prince born to a palace maiden who was temporarily favored by Emperor Chonghe.

Except for the eighth and ninth princes, all the others have started families.

The Yuming Kingdom did not have a rule that one had to get married before leaving the palace and building a house.

All the princes moved out of the palace and lived in their own residences when they reached adulthood.

The eldest prince Ming Qinghuai was at the residence of the ninth prince Ming Nanxuan when he received the news.

When he heard the news from the servants of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, he raised his eyes and looked at Ming Nanluan.

After listening to this, Ming Nanxuan said calmly: "I understand. I will go to the palace with the eldest prince now."

On the carriage.

Ming Qinghuai was wearing a crescent-white straight-hem long gown with a silver fox fur coat on the outside. In his cold, bony hands he was holding an exquisite hand warmer.

"Ninth brother, why do you think our father summoned us?"

Ming Nan, who was sitting opposite him, closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the car. "I don't know. We'll know when we get there."

Ming Qinghuai looked at him sitting in an awkward manner and did not lecture him. He let him close his eyes and rest, with a trace of heartache in his eyes.

It was also his own fault. If it weren't for his poor health, it should have been his turn to go on this two-year border expedition.

Although Ming Nanxuan had his eyes closed, he seemed to know what Ming Qinghuai was thinking: "Brother!"

Ming Qinghuai withdrew his thoughts and responded softly, "Yeah."

By the time the two of them arrived at the Wende Hall, the other three princes had already arrived.

Emperor Chonghe looked at the eldest and second princes who saluted him, feeling very pleased but also a little regretful.

His naturally intelligent eldest prince is so weak, and the ninth prince, who is as good as his brother, looks down on him.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Father!"

Emperor Chonghe asked Liu Changfu to show them the letter from General Song Ci.

Ming Qinghuai took the letter, read it quickly, and handed it to Ming Nanluo who was standing beside him.

Ming Nanxuan's originally indifferent eyes became dark when he saw the words "Qingshi Town" on the letter.

Emperor Chonghe waited until they had all finished reading before speaking: "What do you guys think?"

The second prince Ming Huaiyuan, who was standing at the front, looked worried.

"Father, I think we should prepare disaster relief supplies and open up the national treasury."

Emperor Chonghe did not answer him after hearing his words, but asked: "Where are the others?"

The Fifth Prince Ming Ziyue, dressed in a smoky blue robe with dark bamboo patterns, took a step forward and bowed slightly, looking like a pine or bamboo after the snow.

"Father, I think we should first calm the people and collect disaster relief materials to reduce the pressure on the national treasury."

After the Fifth Prince finished speaking, the Eighth Prince Ming Shize raised his voice in response: "Fifth Brother is right!"

Emperor Chonghe laughed out loud a few times after hearing this. This really touched his heart.

The national treasury has never been full since he ascended the throne. Asking him to open the national treasury to provide disaster relief now would be a drop in the bucket.

"This method is feasible. Who among you wants to go?"

Ming Huaiyuan, who was suppressed, wanted to ask for permission but was met with a negative look from the Right Prime Minister, so he shut his mouth.

Instead, Ming Nanxun gave Ming Qinghuai a look.

Ming Qinghuai looked at him with some concern.

When Emperor Chonghe was about to select someone, Ming Nanxuan said, "Father, I will go."

Emperor Chonghe raised his brows.

"Laojiu, you just came back from the frontier, don't you want to rest for a while?"

"I have worked hard for the country of Yuming, so I am not tired. In addition, I have been busy all year round and have more experience than my brothers."

"Good! We are blessed to have you in Yuming Country! Then the Ninth Prince will lead 5,000 cavalrymen to Qingshi Town, and the First Prince and the Fifth Prince will help in Fengjing. I hope to hear good news!"

"Yes!"

The three people who were called bowed and received the order.

After the meeting, Ming Huaiyuan glanced at Ming Ziyue at the door of Wende Hall before leaving.

Ming Ziyue pretended not to see it and lowered his head waiting for him to leave.

After Ming Huaiyuan walked away, Ming Ziyue let out a sigh of relief. This time he was a little bit in the spotlight.

But natural disasters are not romantic affairs, and they do not allow him to retreat.

Ming Shize, who walked out with him, was a little puzzled: "Fifth brother, why are you afraid of that guy, second brother?"

Ming Ziyue gave a bitter smile.

How could he not be afraid? He was only the son of a concubine, and he had no powerful family outside. He just wanted to live a good life with his concubine and didn't want to get involved with them.

Ming Qinghuai and Ming Nanluo, who were lagging behind, stepped out of Wende Hall and felt a strange atmosphere. They immediately realized that it was Ming Huaiyuan, the beast in human form, who did it again.

Ming Qinghuai said to Ming Ziyue in a gentle voice, "Fifth brother, this matter is urgent. If you have nothing else to do today, why don't we go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to discuss it?"

When Ming Ziyue heard this, he quickly responded: "Big brother, ninth brother, sorry to bother you!"

Seeing that they ignored him, Ming Shize shouted anxiously: "I want to go too!"

Ming Qinghuai looked at him tenderly.

"Okay, Eighth Brother will go too."

Ming Shize's face turned red when he heard what his elder brother said.

Ming Nanxun sneered beside him.

It's all over now, like lighting a powder keg.

Ming Shize started chasing Ming Nan and fighting him.

Ming Nanluo easily clamped his hands.

"It hurts, it hurts, Lao Jiu, let go!"

Ming Qinghuai watched them playfully and laughed: "Alright, ninth brother!"

When Ming Nanxuan heard his elder brother trying to persuade him, he let go of Ming Shize's hand.

Ming Shize covered his hand which was hurt by being scratched and hid behind Ming Ziyue pitifully.

Ming Ziyue was also helpless. He clearly could not beat his ninth brother, but he just liked to provoke him since he was a child.

The group of people were riding in three carriages, and the wheels were turning as they headed towards the Ninth Prince's Palace.

----

Right Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Grandfather, why don't you let me ask for permission to go to Qingshi Town?"

Ming Huaiyuan, who was suppressed in Wende Hall, followed the Right Prime Minister to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.

He started questioning before the right prime minister even sat down.

He was not at all as gentle and polite as he was in front of outsiders.

The right prime minister looked at him helplessly as he went crazy.

Did he not want him to make meritorious contributions? With his condition, he would die without knowing how.

"Your Highness!"

When Ming Huaiyuan heard the Right Prime Minister calling him, he calmed down instantly.

He believed that his grandfather would never harm him!

The one who loved him the most was his grandfather.

Thinking of this, he seemed like a different person. He picked up a cup of tea and apologized to the right prime minister.

"It was my grandson who was anxious and reckless. Please forgive me, Grandfather!"
