Soul swap tyrant always wants to have a baby
Chapter 34 Continue Patrol
The three families agreed to enter the palace together, but when they arrived at the palace gate and asked around, they found out that there was no empress dowager in the palace.
Their patron, the Queen Mother, had been sent to the palace a few days ago.
These three families are old royal relatives who are far away from the center of power and live on the savings and properties left by their ancestors.
A few days ago, the fifth princess passed away and they didn't receive any invitation to attend the funeral. They thought it would be a grand ceremony, but who knew that not only was the fifth princess buried hastily, the second prince also had a leg broken, and the empress dowager was also sent to the temporary palace.
They were so surprised by the news that they heard that they even suspected that they had heard it wrongly.
But looking at the serious expression of the soldier guarding the gate, even if you don't believe it, it is the fact.
The three families looked at each other and went to the main gate of the palace to see their children hanging on the city gate and unconscious. It would be a lie to say they didn't feel heartbroken.
But it is really difficult for their family to come up with 100,000 taels now. Although 100,000 taels is not their entire fortune, they have to sell a few shops to make up the difference.
The three families didn't dare to delay any longer. Being exposed to the strong sun for too long could really kill people. They had no choice but to go back and discuss how to raise money.
Leng Qingyi made a net profit of 800,000 taels of silver from yesterday's transaction. Although it is nothing for this dilapidated dynasty, it is better than nothing.
She still had no plans to stay in the palace today. All she could know in the palace was what the ministers wanted her to know.
Zhongli Yuan has very few spies in the capital, and calculating everything would affect the development of events.
Now that she no longer has the system, this super plug-in, she can only be restricted.
After breakfast, Leng Qingyi took Zhong Liyuan directly to the camp outside Beijing to continue the inspection and see how Ling Xuan had managed the military camp in the past few days.
The two men flew directly into the camp outside the capital using lightness skills, so no one in the camp knew that the emperor was coming.
Leng Qingyi and Zhongli Yuan arrived at the main tent of the military camp in one breath before they were discovered.
"who?"
The two young men guarding the main tent were upright and righteous, and their physiques were good, unlike the skinny soldiers she had seen along the way.
"Why are the other soldiers so thin and you two so strong?"
Leng Qingyi hadn't thought about hiding her whereabouts at all, and she was a little disappointed that she was discovered when she arrived at the main account.
I thought Ling Xuan was a capable person, but I didn't expect that this camp outside Beijing was also full of loopholes.
If someone with great martial arts skills comes in and steals the defense map or something, it would be a piece of cake. It's time to practice some more.
When the two personal soldiers of Ling Xuan heard the voice, they immediately drew their machetes from their waists and became alert.
They saw a stern-looking man in a black brocade robe embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon pattern, striding towards them with his hands behind his back.
The two men's pupils dilated greatly. They had followed Ling Xuan and had seen the emperor from afar. Coupled with the five-clawed golden dragon on his robe, this man's identity was obvious.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
"Get up and answer my questions."
The two stood up and looked at each other, and immediately understood what the other meant.
"Your Majesty, we are General Ling's personal soldiers. The army is short of food and fodder. General Ling couldn't bear to see us training hungry every day, so he paid for the food for the 500 brothers in the personal guard camp out of his own pocket."
"Oh? Wouldn't the other soldiers have any objections to General Ling doing this?"
"Of course there are, but General Ling has fought hard for them. Most of the soldiers understand General Ling. After all, if the five hundred of us don't eat the army's food, they can get more."
"What about the minority?"
The two men looked at each other, not knowing what to say. After all, the camp outside the capital was not controlled by their general alone.
Leng Qingyi looked at their expressions and roughly knew what was going on.
This camp outside the capital is not just Ling Xuan's territory, but also General Weiyuan's.
If they were all his soldiers, given Ling Xuan's family background and the importance he placed on his soldiers, it wouldn't be difficult for him to feed them all out of his own pocket.
But there are still many people under General Weiyuan Ye Gucheng in this army. If he pays out of his own pocket, he will become a sucker.
Ultimately, it was the incompetence of the imperial court.
Leng Qingyi thought this was quite outrageous. The late emperor was a capable emperor, but he was ill for two years before his death and neglected state affairs.
Zhongli Yuan was a young emperor without any backing, and in just three years the court became chaotic.
But three years is definitely not enough to govern this dynasty into a peaceful and prosperous era.
"Those who have objections are of course General Ye's subordinates."
At first, the man who responded was still thinking about how to flatter Ye Gucheng in a tactful way, but he didn't expect that his brainless brother would just say it out loud like that.
"Oh? Shouldn't they go to their general if they have any opinions?"
The man was about to speak when he was stopped by the more steady soldier who had responded at first.
"No problem, let him say that I am here on a private visit today."
The two men looked at Leng Qingyi's dragon robe and wanted to say something but stopped themselves, but since the emperor had spoken, they couldn't miss such a good opportunity to expose someone's wrongdoing.
"Your Majesty, General Ye is very powerful. Not only did he withhold the military rations from our soldiers and give them to his own soldiers, he also said that the rations we gave to our personal soldiers were withheld from them.
General Ye repeatedly withheld the food for our five hundred personal guards, claiming we were General Ling's personal guards and couldn't be supported by the imperial court. He argued that General Ling had to pay for our support himself, even though our military registrations were all in the camp outside the capital. General Ye repeatedly argued this way, causing many soldiers to dislike us. General Ling couldn't bear to see us suffer, so he simply withdrew our share of rations and paid for our personal guards himself.
"What about Ye Gucheng's personal soldiers?"
"General Ye has the final say on how to distribute military rations."
"Biaozi, stop talking nonsense."
The more steady personal soldier was so frightened when he saw his brother getting more and more excited that he broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
"Your Majesty, Biaozi has always been outspoken. General Ye will distribute military rations fairly and impartially. Those previous ones were all misunderstandings. General Ye has already cleared up the misunderstandings with our general."
Leng Qingyi took a deep look at this unknown soldier, and found that he was a smart man.
"Where is your general now?"
"Return to the Emperor, training at the training ground."
"Where is Ye Gucheng?"
"I don't know General Ye's whereabouts."
"Where is the training ground?"
"It's a hundred meters to the south. Would you like me to lead the way?"
"No need."
After saying that, he grabbed Zhongli Yuan by the collar and lifted him up and down a few times before they saw the training ground of the camp outside Beijing.
There is a very clear boundary between Chu and Han in the field.
The soldiers on one side were doing physical training with their upper bodies naked, while the soldiers on the other side were practicing in pairs.
Looking at the situation where they were playing house and you hit me and I hit you, Leng Qing's mouth twitched.
