The tyrant is changing the plot madly because of the fake princess's voice
Chapter 44: It would be more effective if you embezzled less!
All the ministers had puzzled expressions on their faces. However, the military officers who had gone to the Duke's Mansion to loot it last night looked up at the sky and the ground guiltily, but they refused to turn around and look at Duke Wang's face.
When Duke Wang saw this scene, the three points of doubt in his heart turned into great certainty.
You little bastards, I knew it had something to do with you!
He clenched his lower teeth.
Suddenly, he noticed that there was something wrong with these shameless "thieves".
General Zhongwu Gao Siyuan had a pair of ladies' earrings pinned to his cuffs. When his arms hung naturally, the tassels on the earrings fell on the back of his hands, which was particularly inconsistent with his big hands covered with blue veins.
Mingwei General Dong Kangsheng has a white jade pendant hanging around his waist. Although the style of this jade pendant is the same for men and women, Dong Kangsheng has always claimed that extra accessories will affect his practice, so he has never worn it for all these years.
General Guide Lei Zhixin was even more outrageous. He simply wrapped a red hairpin with a red rope and hung it around his neck.
……
Upon closer inspection, these things all look somewhat familiar.
When his eyes swept across one of the bells, Duke Wang suddenly remembered that these were all worn by the girl Gu Yurou!
Good fellow, he even brought the stolen goods into the court, right? !
This time we caught the criminal red-handed!
[Well, why don’t they dare to look at Grandpa Wang? ] Jiang Yingcheng’s inner voice suddenly rang out.
Duke Wang snorted coldly, turned around slowly and stood in his place.
These bastards who burned down his yard didn't dare to look him in the eye.
[Ahahahahahaha, did these uncles really go to Uncle Wang's house and burn, kill, and loot last night? ]
[Oh, if there is no killing, then we are going to Uncle Wang’s house, um…]
Jiang Yingcheng couldn't find a suitable adjective for a moment: [Doing evil? ]
Duke Wang nodded.
appropriate.
Being publicly executed by these two people in unison, the faces of several military officers turned red.
But this is not the most important thing.
They were anxious.
Little princess, please stop mocking them. Tell me, among these things hanging on their bodies, are there the uniquely shaped tiger talismans that you mentioned in your mind before?
Several people were very desperate.
They didn't want to wear these girly things, but they searched through all the dirty stuff yesterday and couldn't find anything that could serve as a tiger talisman.
I just have to give it a try.
【ah! 】
Several people's eyes lit up.
Did the little princess finally discover these irrational things about them?
Jiang Yingcheng did find those accessories under 007's guidance, and wondered sincerely: [Did they burn down Grandpa Wang's yard just to steal these jewelry? ]
[Are you unwilling to share your wife's jewelry with them? ]
Military officers: “???”
No, how can they be that perverted?
The faces of the people wearing accessories were not only embarrassed, but also a little distorted.
In this court, they are not the only ones who can hear the little princess's voice!
How can they face people after they get out after so many people heard these remarks?
The official who was reporting the memorial suddenly turned around and said politely but arrogantly: "General Gao."
Gao Siyuan, who was concentrating on waiting for the little princess' next words, turned around blankly and said, "Master Qu."
Qu Kaiyu's face was stern: "General, are you dissatisfied with what I just said?"
Otherwise, why would he make such ferocious expressions so frequently?
Gao Siyuan was even more confused: "Huh?"
He was just concentrating on listening to the little princess's thoughts, but how did he end up provoking this troublemaker?
That’s right, a troublemaker.
Qu Kaiyu was a civil servant who usually looked down on those guys who could only wield swords and guns. He was extremely incompatible with the military officers' camp and always wanted to take the opportunity to find some trouble and implicate them.
They couldn't convince him and often just walked around him.
"I proposed to increase taxes just to provide more military supplies to the soldiers, so that our men of Da Rui can fight the enemy without any worries on the battlefield," Qu Kaiyu continued. "But why did General Gao show such disdain when I reported this to you?"
Gao Siyuan was confused by his question.
When did he show disdain?
The most important thing is, would Qu Kaiyu be so kind as to care about the combat conditions of his soldiers?
But at this time, they were still in the court. Although Emperor Mingze was looking at them expressionlessly, he just felt for no reason that the other party should be in a bad mood.
How could it be good?
The little princess was about to get to the key point, but was interrupted by this guy.
He wanted to quickly cover up the matter so that the little princess could continue to pay attention to the abnormalities in them. Before he opened his mouth, he heard the little princess's inner voice continue.
[I am so angry, I am so angry, people's lives are already so hard, why are there still people thinking about the two copper coins in their pockets? ! ]
Gao Siyuan nodded and agreed with it.
Emperor Mingze has been engaged in wars for the past two years, and taxes are already extremely high. If taxes are increased again at this time, it will probably cause a strong backlash from the people.
Fortunately, Emperor Mingze was not so confused. Gao Siyuan curled his lips and did not want to get entangled with him.
Qu Kaiyu kept on talking: "That's right, you military officers only think about fighting, so these things can only be taken care of by us civilians."
Gao Siyuan: “???”
He can't tolerate this!
"Master Qu, do you know the sufferings of the people?" He brought out the little princess's argument, "They don't have much money left, but they still can't escape the fate of being remembered by others!"
Jiang Yingcheng's eyes lit up.
[Yes, yes, that’s right, just scold him like this! ]
【General, you are so righteous! 】
[To resist foreign aggression, one must first stabilize the internal situation. If you don’t understand this principle, how can you be an official? ]
Gao Siyuan straightened his chest, and the earrings on his cuffs became brighter in the light of the candle.
Qu Kaiyu's eyes widened, as if he had not expected that Gao Siyuan, who had always avoided him, would actually refute him.
"General Gao really has nothing to do with this matter, so he can stand on the moral high ground. If we don't increase taxes, where will the soldiers get their military supplies from?"
Gao Siyuan snorted coldly.
If it were normal, he would have been upset because of his poor speaking ability, but now it was different, now he could hear the little princess's voice!
"Oh, Lord Qu is just a civil servant, so he doesn't understand military affairs. As the saying goes, before you can resist foreign aggression, you must first stabilize the country. If you can't ensure the stability of the rear, how can you talk about expanding the territory?"
[Oh, uncle General is simply my substitute for words! ]
[So handsome! The general is so handsome when he speaks righteously! ]
[Come on, General! Fight him! Fight him!!]
Gao Siyuan lost himself in the praise, and before Qu Kaiyu could speak, he took advantage of the situation and said, "You don't even understand this. Isn't your job too easy?"
The ministers: "..."
Jiang Yanchuan: "..."
Qu Kaiyu was so angry that he blew his nose and glared, and it looked like he was going to rush forward and fight Gao Siyuan at close range in the next second.
Jiang Yingcheng was enjoying the fun and even asked 007 to peel some melon for her.
The more he ate, the angrier he got: [Bah! They're increasing taxes! It would be better if you could just take less bribes! ! ]
Gao Siyuan said without hesitation: "It would be more effective if you embezzled less!"
Gao Siyuan: “???”
