Chapter 726
Fang Daheng exited the military tent.
General Xiahou's eyes fell on Luo Fengtang again.
Seeing the young man's anger, General Xiahou asked Luo Fengtang: "The army has military discipline. The fists of our entire army can only be used unanimously to attack others, and we are not allowed to hit our own people."
"You violated military discipline and beat the quartermaster. You must accept military discipline!"
Luo Fengtang's eyebrows tightened, and his anger surged.
Just as he was about to argue, Ning Su beside him spoke first.
"General, he has recently joined the army and is not very familiar with military regulations. I think he is a first-time offender and he has made great contributions in the battle to encircle and suppress bandits."
"If the merit has been exceeded, let him be spared this time, right?"
Ning Su begged for mercy.
Luo Fengtang glanced at Ning Su, and when he was about to speak, Ning Su glared hard at him.
While Luo Fengtang was stunned, General Xiahou nodded.
"That's fine, but don't be impulsive and reckless next time you encounter trouble!" General Xiahou said.
Ning Su breathed a sigh of relief and winked at Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang understood the look in his eyes, frowned, cupped his fists towards General Xiahou and said, "Thank you, General, for your kindness, but the medicine..."
"We will discuss the medicines later."
General Xiahou interrupted Luo Fengtang.
He waved his hand again.
Ning Su understood and quickly dragged Luo Fengtang out of the camp.
Ning Su didn't let go until he was dragged to an open space outside the camp.
Under the moonlight, Luo Fengtang looked aggrieved and angry.
"What exactly happened? The medicine was obviously adulterated. Why was the quartermaster so cruel? Why did General Xiahou avoid talking about it?"
"And your brother Ning, you have always been upright and righteous, so why are you so evasive tonight?"
"What are you all avoiding?"
Luo Fengtang angrily kicked over a stone at his feet and questioned Ning Su.
Hearing Luo Fengtang's question, Ning Su looked a little ashamed.
He sighed and said helplessly: "This is not the first time that medicines have insufficient potency."
"What?"
Luo Fengtang was surprised.
"you mean……"
"That's right, in our military camp, there have been more than one cases where wounded soldiers lost their lives because of insufficient medicine and the inability to receive timely treatment." Ning Su said.
"What!"
Luo Fengtang was shocked.
Ning Su continued: "The quartermaster secretly colluded with the suppliers to profit from it. Most of the medicines entering the military camp were adulterated."
"Not only me, General Xiahou, but also the former General Zhu are all aware of this matter."
"However, no one dared to stand up and say this." Ning Su said.
"Why don't you dare? Do you just watch the soldiers being injured and not receiving treatment?" Luo Fengtang asked in a deep voice.
Ning Su shook his head.
"The supplier behind this has a great background."
"Not only are they some of the most famous red-top merchants in Da Qi, but they are also related to relatives of the emperor."
"That's why the munitions officials are so arrogant that they dare to be so arrogant..."
Before Ning Su could finish speaking, Luo Fengtang grabbed him by the collar.
"I don't care what tricks this supplier has!"
"All I know is that as human beings, we must have our own limits!"
“What can be tolerated and what can’t be retreated from?”
Luo Fengtang growled at Ning Su.
"What's the price for swallowing your anger and turning a blind eye?"
"It's the lives of all the soldiers in the army!"
Luo Fengtang suddenly let go, and Ning Su was pushed to the ground.
He sat on the ground with a dejected look on his face, looking up at Luo Fengtang, who was covered in coldness under the moonlight.
Then, he hung his head guiltily.
Seeing Ning Su's appearance, Luo Fengtang became even more angry.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked in the direction of Changping Village.
If Qing'er were here, how would she handle such a matter today?
Luo Fengtang speculated on Yang Ruoqing's attitude and consistent style.
After being silent for a long time, he spoke again.
He said to Ning Su: "I will not sit idly by and ignore this matter that concerns the lives and deaths of our soldiers!"
"Isn't it just a supply of medicine? I don't believe that without Fang Daheng, this matter would not be possible!"
…
After breakfast, Bao Suyun came over to talk to Sun.
Yang Ruoqing took out the basket containing the sachets and asked Bao Suyun to pick one.
Then, she also picked one for Xiao An to wear.
The sachet contains mugwort and calamus.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather became increasingly hot and humid, and snakes, insects, rats and ants were rampant.
Farmers are accustomed to burning mugwort leaves to drive away insects and ants.
Yang Ruoqing then thought of wearing one on Xiao An to prevent mosquito bites.
Suddenly, Yang Huaan's angry voice came from the front yard.
Mrs. Sun raised her head and looked outside: "Do you think Uncle Qing'er is back from town so soon?"
Bao Suyun said: "Let's go take a look."
The three of them left the house and came to the front yard.
At a glance, Mrs. Liu was seen standing at the door of the west room holding the three girls, looking towards the east room where Yang Huaan's voice came from the opposite side.
Seeing the three people from the Sun family coming over, Liu's eyes lit up.
He hugged the three girls and ran to their side.
"Tsk, tsk, these two brothers are really unlucky. It's their turn to support the two elders, but they even hide and don't show up. The eldest brother's lungs are so angry..."
"Let's go to the east room to see what's going on!"
Hearing Liu's words, Sun and Bao Suyun exchanged glances.
Neither of them moved their feet, they just stood here and watched from a distance.
Mrs. Liu looked excited and wanted to pull Mrs. Sun and Bao Suyun over.
was pushed away by Yang Ruoqing.
"Fourth Aunt, come on, come on, I'll help you pick up your third cousin. You go to the east room to hear what's going on and then tell us when you come back."
Yang Ruoqing said.
Ms. Liu shrank her neck.
Going to listen alone? That’s not asking for death!
"Forget it, it's the same as standing here."
Mr. Liu settled down for the time being.
Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes and was too lazy to talk to Mrs. Liu, and stood there with Mrs. Sun listening.
In the east room, I heard Yang Huaan and Mr. Tan complaining about their second wife.
"Mom, my second brother is hiding again and doesn't show up at all."
"I asked my second younger sister to come back to the village with me, but she pretended to be sick and refused to come."
"They clearly don't want to support you two..."
Soon, Tan's angry curses were also heard.
"A pair of damned ones, with wolf-like hearts and dog-like lungs, will not die a good death!"
"The second child, the weakling, puts his hot face on his father-in-law's cold ass. It's embarrassing!"
"I gave birth to a foxy daughter. She wanted to fly high and was rejected by the Mu family. She deserved it..."
When Mr. Tan was scolding him like crazy, Lao Yangtou entered the yard with a gloomy face.
Yang Huazhong was also followed behind him.
Apparently, the two brothers came back from town together.
Yang Huazhong went to the construction site to report the matter to Old Yang, and Yang Huaan ran home to report to Mr. Tan.
Seeing that her father Yang Huazhong looked very unhappy, Yang Ruoqing guessed that what her uncle had just complained to Tan was true.
The second uncle and the second mother really want to get rid of these two elders.
Here, Lao Yangtou went straight into the east room.
