Chapter 1294 Qinzhou Affairs
Qinzhou Camp.
Liu Yuzhi was checking the grain, grass and ordnance. It seemed at the scene that there were not only countless grain and grass, but also bundles of black arrows loaded into carts, which were used for hard bows and powerful crossbows.
"According to the order of the Prime Minister's Office, a total of 700,000 stones of grain and grass and 400,000 arrows will be transferred this time. The official documents have been prepared."
As the subordinate officer beside him said, Liu Yuzhi also opened a grain bag at will, grabbed a handful of snow-white rice inside, and after checking it, said: "There is nothing wrong with the grain and grass."
"Don't worry, Prime Minister. When the food and grass are bagged, there are officials present. Every step can be directly held accountable, and the subordinate officials also have some experience." It is an official way.
"Well, where's the horse feed?" Liu Yuzhi asked again. When marching and fighting, war horses are crucial. In some battles, cavalry is the key to victory. Therefore, the feeding of war horses is different from ordinary horses and requires a certain amount of fine feed.
In terms of military resources, the consumption of a war horse is definitely higher than that of a soldier, which is why cavalry consumes more money.
"It's all ready." The subordinate officer said, and then added: "In addition, these arrows are also personally controlled by Master Ji Ping."
"Yes." Liu Yuzhi nodded, took off a sharp arrow, and said while looking at it: "The credit of Mr. Ji of the Ordnance Department is no less than that of other generals. There have been assassinations by enemy countries before, and we will still have to give him some credit later.
Send a message to the capital guard camp that there must be no problem with the safety of our officials."
"Yes." The officer responded.
Just as he said this, a petty official walked over quickly, saluted and said: "To the Prime Minister, Mr. Liu is here."
"Please come quickly." Liu Yuzhi signaled.
The person who came was none other than Liu Changqing.
Not long after, the two parties met. After the ceremony, Liu Yuzhi also said with a smile: "The Queen personally called the roll. This time, I'm afraid Master Liu will have to work hard again."
Liu Changqing said sternly: "Serving the country, I will die even if I am a subordinate, so how can I say it's hard work?"
"Okay, I have Master Liu supervising the transportation of grain and grass, so I can rest assured. It is better to take the water route to save time and transport it to the front line as soon as possible."
After Liu Yuzhi finished explaining, he added: "In addition, after the food, grass, ordnance is delivered to the army, when Mr. Liu returns to the capital, he should not take the land route and take a look around the river basin."
"Xiang Guo means..." Liu Changqing's heart moved.
Liu Yuzhi said: "Although there was nothing wrong with the food and grass last time, it was very consumed when it arrived at the front line. This was because the journey was delayed and was used by the civilians. After preliminary investigation, it was found that there were many waters where the trackers pulled boats along the coast?"
"Xiang Guo is right." Liu Changqing, who had transported grain and grass last time, said: "There are several places where it is difficult to transport ships, so we can only rely on civilians to pull them through shallow water areas."
"In this way, it goes without saying that the time is wasted. Every day, the civilians escorting the transport have to eat. The original 700,000 dan will be left at the front line." Liu Yuzhi said: "In the Yangtze River Basin, the water transportation line is
It has been planned for a long time, and the imperial court spends tens of millions of taels of silver to protect the water every year. If all is used in practical matters, there will never be a situation where the river is blocked."
"Hiss... Prime Minister Guo's words make sense." Liu Changqing's face condensed.
The officials of the Prime Minister's Office on the side were filled with indignation and said: "All the government offices along the river have water transport departments. The Prime Minister has repeatedly issued orders to ensure the convenience of water transportation and the overall logistics to ensure that the king's division is safe. But these people, with the canal protection
Silver, but he is greedy for money and ignores important military and state affairs! How unreasonable!"
"It's hard to say whether there is corruption now. This matter needs to be investigated, but there must be a sequence." Liu Yuzhi looked at Liu Changqing and said: "The war is now at a critical moment. We must first ensure that food and grass are transported to the front line in time. When we return to the capital,
Drop by again."
"I understand." Liu Changqing said, and said with some worry: "It's just that if you check the position of the lower official, although you can check the official documents of the Water Transport Company along the Yangtze River, I'm afraid there will be many difficulties, and the local government will also secretly stumble.
.”
"Then we can investigate it in the name of the Prime Minister's Office, but we can't even set up a local government office." The subordinate officer interjected.
This is of course no problem. Xiao Yuan is not here, and the prime minister is assisting in the affairs of the country. He is the head of the officials, and his rights are unquestionable.
However, Liu Yuzhi said: "It's still not appropriate. We should rely on the Queen's handwriting. Master Liu will prepare the food and grass transportation first. The Prime Minister will come to the palace later and invite an inspection envoy to authorize you."
"In this case, I will definitely fulfill my mission." Liu Changqing bowed deeply.
Inspection envoys generally patrol the herds on behalf of heaven. Although the prime minister has the power, he cannot determine the identity of the imperial envoy.
That afternoon, Qin Palace, back garden.
In the pavilion, Lu Yunyan was playing chess with Gu Xue.
She was wearing a red dress, while Gu Xue was wearing a white dress.
Neither of them wore much makeup, but one was more beautiful than the other, classic and moving.
The fight on the chessboard was not intense, and both of them played the game calmly.
After another child fell, Lu Yunyan said, "Would Princess have anything to do tomorrow? If you have free time, how about making an appointment with Duo'er to go out to the market and buy some things."
"Let the Queen arrange it." Gu Xue followed Luo Yizi.
Lu Yunyan said again: "By the way, I heard the piano master say last time that Qing Luo is extremely talented at playing the zither. Hasn't the princess ever thought about this?"
"I've thought about it, but I just don't know if my children are willing to learn." Gu Xue said.
"This is the eldest princess of our Qin State. She needs to be good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is just suffering for the child." Lu Yunyan said.
While the two were chatting, the maid Qingqing came over and saluted, "My dearest lady, Master Yao would like to see you."
"Let him come over." Lu Yunyan said casually, still looking at the chessboard.
She was the original Xuanjun, and she was extremely accomplished at Go, but playing games with Gu Xue often took a long time, and the relationship between the two in private was also very good.
After Lu Yunyan established a kingdom, it can be said that the management of everything in the harem could not be more stable. Several of Xiao Yuan's women, including Zhong Duoduo, were obedient to her.
Not long after, Yao Tingyu arrived, quickly stepped forward, knelt down and saluted: "Your Majesty, Yao Tingyu, please see the Queen and the Princess."
"Get back on your feet." Lu Yunyan said, and as he spoke, "I'm asking to see you today, what do you mean?"
"We are here to report the good news to the Queen and the Princess." Yao Tingyu bowed his head and stood below and said: "According to the latest news from the front line, the king has led one million troops to conquer Caizhou, and the situation in Lingguo is over.
,Reunion from all over the world is just around the corner, empress..."
Yao Tingyu was excited, and when he said these words, his face was even more rosy and excited.
"Ah?" Even though Lu Yunyan was the queen, she still couldn't help but feel a little confused in her heart.
The same was true for Gu Xue. Her hand was obviously stunned and she no longer had the intention to play chess.
The man they loved was away on an expedition, and news of a great victory came back. How could the two of them not be disturbed in their hearts?
