Chapter 849

Since the first letter, Fengche wrote a letter to his home every other month. Last month, it was time, but he didn't come. Fubo was worried. Now he received Fengche's letter, and he felt at ease.

Xia Xi goes back to the yard and opens the letter. The smile on her face gradually fades away. Feng Che says in the letter that the border is in the cold season, and the military supplies in the court have not been sent. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid the soldiers will be frostbitten and the combat effectiveness will decline. He has given a memorial to the emperor, but he has not replied. Let Xia Xi find an Shangshu to find a way.

Xia Xi finished reading, folded the letter, and hurried out, "Uncle Fu, prepare the carriage, I'll go out."

Fubo stood outside the door, waiting for Xia Xi to tell him what happened. Suddenly, he heard Xia Xi's command, and his heart was excited. He answered the command and went down quickly.

Xia Xi arrives at the gate of the mansion, and the carriage is ready. Xia Xi orders the coachman to go to an Shangshu mansion.

At the same time, an Shangshu also received a letter from an Xiong. He was about to send someone to invite Xia Xi. After hearing the report that she had come to the door, he immediately asked his wife to go out and welcome him into the study. He held back and asked his wife to guard outside the study,

"What's your plan, Princess Zhan?"

"The supply of military supplies is the business of the Ministry of accounts and the Ministry of arms. Now the mistakes are the problem of the two departments. You can join them when you go to the early court tomorrow."

An Shangshu nodded without hesitation, "give this to me. Xiong'er said that the Lord has already made a compromise for the emperor. Tomorrow morning, we must discuss this matter."

"At that time, you can act according to the circumstances. If they don't have so much money in the Treasury, you suggest that officials should donate it. No more, no less, no one can run away."

An Shangshu agreed, "I'll say that in the morning."

Xia Xi went out of an Shangshu's house and wanted to go to Lian's house. She thought that Lian Li had just been promoted to be the Minister of the Ministry of accounts. Most of her business hadn't been touched yet. Even if she asked him, she couldn't find anything. So she asked the coachman to turn his horse and go to find Luo Feng.

The restaurant has been opened. The guests are full. Every day, Luo Feng is counting money. He is too happy to close his mouth. He is leaning in his room in the backyard of the restaurant, looking at his legs and thinking about what business to do next.

Heard the shopkeeper's report, said Xia Xi came, quickly got up to go out, welcomed people in, personally poured tea for Xia Xi, "sister-in-law, how do you have time to come here today?"

Xia Xi says she can handle Yu Yi's affairs, so he doesn't go to help and is determined to deal with the restaurant. A few days ago, I heard that Niu's mother and daughter came to the door to make trouble. He wanted to go and have a look. He also thought that Xia Xi could deal with Yu Yi easily. The mother and daughter were nothing to do with each other. In addition, he was busy just starting business here, so he didn't go there.

"I'm looking for you."

Luo Feng is muddled for a while, "change what margin?"

"It's cold at the border, and the soldiers don't have supplies for the winter."

Luo Feng gathered a look, "how much do you need?"

"Five hundred thousand taels."

"You wait. I'll get it right away."

Say words, want to go out, Xia Xi stopped him, "don't worry, I just received the news of wind Che, the emperor there hasn't moved, you first prepare, wait for the court ordered to let the rich merchants to collect money when you take out."

If the imperial court asks the rich businessmen to raise money, the first thing to see is Luo Feng. We all know that he and Fengche grew up together and have a deep friendship. If he donates more, the people behind will naturally donate more. If he donates less, the people behind will naturally donate less.

"I see."

Xia Xi said, "I'm just preparing for a rainy day. The imperial court may not make an order. You should be ready first."

Luo Feng nodded.

After going out of the restaurant, Xia Xi went to Marquis Qin's house, went directly to the old Marquis, and showed him Fengche's letter. "It's reasonable to say that the military supplies should have been supplied long ago, but they haven't yet. It should be the emperor's fault. I've gone to see an Shangshu. If the emperor doesn't mention it tomorrow morning, he will bring it up. I hope the old Marquis can help him then."

After reading the letter, the old Marquis didn't look good either.

The border war is not a trivial matter. The emperor, for his own sake, suppressed Fengche in the military supplies. He took the war as a drama and calmly answered, "don't worry, I will help him tomorrow morning."

It's settled. Xia Xi goes to see Fengqin.

Come to the Qin Hou mansion but don't look for her first, the breeze Qin definitely can guess is the breeze Che what matter.

Sure enough, Fengqin even Ke'er let Ruyan and Cuiyan take her away, waiting for her at the door of the house. As soon as she entered the yard, she couldn't wait to go forward, directly took her hand and quickly walked back to the house, "is something wrong with che'er?"

"No

Xia Xi half true and half false, "he wrote that the border has entered the winter, let the old Marquis to urge the emperor to send the Quartermaster earlier."

Feng Qin is a little incredulous, "only these?"

"Of course."

Feng Qin stretched out his hand to her, "where's the letter? Show it to me."

Xia Xi didn't give it to her and said with a smile, "it says that Fengche whispered to me, but I can't show it to my elder sister. If you don't trust me, wait for me to write to Fengche and let him write to you next time."

Look at her face with a smile, look relaxed, really does not look like the wind Che out of the way, the wind Qin bear the heart a little calm, "that is not necessary, you let him pay more attention to yourself."

Xia Xi should, "I wrote it down. When I go back, I will write to him and convey your words to him."

Fengqin asked her a few days ago the cow's mother and daughter come to trouble, Xia Xi light said, see she did not put in mind, Fengqin also don't worry.

After sitting for about half an hour, Xia Xi got up and went back to the house. He asked Fu Bo to count how many things the Emperor gave him in the warehouse.

After reading the letter, she went out. Faber was very worried. He couldn't help but ask, "princess, but he

"It's no big deal. The Quartermaster didn't arrive."

Fubo breathed a sigh. Since ancient times, soldiers and horses have not been moved. Food and grass are in the first place. Without military supplies, how can soldiers fight?

"Go and count. The emperor has given so many good things at the beginning. It's time to use them."

Fubo didn't know what use those imperial gifts could bring, but he went to count them. After counting, he handed the list to Xia Xi.

The next morning, Xia Xi, as always, got up early and watched Qi'er, Hu Zi and you Hua finish their martial arts training. When they finished their grooming and had breakfast with them, Fu Bo came in in a hurry. "Princess, there's someone in the palace. He said that you're going to the palace to meet the emperor."

Xia Xi had long expected this. She put down her chopsticks and went back to the house to change her clothes. With the palace, she came to the Jinluan palace.
