Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

After watching the few people disappear completely, Xie Zhaozhao asked Yuanyuanman to close the door.

Returning to the island in the middle of the lake, she picked up the small box left by Yin Jinan.

The box is not heavy, so it probably contains just the letter.

She opened it carefully and found a lot of things.

On the top was a letter, and below were the house deed, land deed, silver bills, and two small boxes.

She felt a little uneasy and opened the letter hurriedly.

The handwriting is not good, but it is neat.

Living Guanyin:

The Wei family has been in business for three generations. They have a large number of elite soldiers and generals, and abundant food and fodder. They have spies everywhere, so it will definitely be a fierce battle.

I will definitely find a way to come back alive, but there is always a chance of something happening. If I can't come back, the Xiaoyao Marquis Mansion will definitely not be able to be saved.

These land deeds and house deeds have my shop and my house. These are the only savings I have, and I'll give them all to you. I used to mess around, but I only accumulated this little wealth by following you.

If I can come back alive, please keep these things for me for a few months.

If I'm gone, all of this will be yours.

Remember, this is my property. I can give it to whoever I want. You must respect my decision and not give a penny to anyone in the Duke Xun's Mansion.

In addition to these, there are also Wang Fen and Chu Zhongtian, you take them in for me. They chose to follow me, and I want them to have a good home.

Even if the old man wins the battle and returns to the court this time, he is too old to give Wang Fen and the others a better future, and Yin Jinzhuo will not do the same.

So, you must take in Wang Fen and Chu Zhongtian!

I have prepared a gift for you and Gu Ge Lao's children, one for each gender. You will not have only one child in your lifetime. It would be best if you have both a son and a daughter, so that you can make a perfect couple.

Yes, you must be well and live a good life. Your man should be good to you, your children should be good to you, and your life should be complete.

Okay, these are the only words I can write...

Xie Zhaozhao's eyes were blurred with tears.

A raincoat and a straw hat will protect you from all the winds and rains in your life, neither windy nor clear.

It was as if she saw the playboy who was dressed in fine clothes and riding a horse through the street, looking unruly and standing in front of her, reining in his horse.

"Are you Xie Zhaozhao?"

"I tell you, we can't read books, and we can't do anything else. We are just mud."

"Don't make big promises, don't say such nice things, just assign tasks quickly."

……

"Yin Jinan, you must come back alive and don't make me regret dragging you into this!" After wiping her tears, she carefully put down the letter.

I looked at the contents of the boxes. In one of the two smaller boxes was a jade pendant for boys, a butterfly-shaped jade pendant with auspicious animal patterns, made of top-grade mutton-fat white jade, with several dragons carved around it, symbolizing beauty, auspiciousness, and wealth.

In another box is a white jade longevity lock, which is carved with a lotus in relief technique. It has a perfect shape, simple modeling, and smooth curves. It looks like a lock, a gold ingot, and a ruyi, and has a rounded surface.

I don't know when he started preparing.

Xie Zhaozhao put all the things in his box together and closed the lid.

Yin Jinan, waiting for you to come back.

I will keep your property for you temporarily.

Give the gift to the child yourself.

in the hall.

The army is about to set out, and the court is making final preparations.

After discussing state affairs, His Majesty summoned Gu Shaoyu, Xie Yu, Duke Xun and others to the Imperial Study to make further arrangements before the expedition.

In fact, in such a war, the combat capabilities of generals and soldiers are basically determined, and the biggest variable is food and fodder.

The war right now, after all, is a battle for food and supplies.

With an army of 350,000, if each person gets one pound of food per day, that would be 350,000 pounds.

I don’t know how long this battle will last.

Last year we suffered a major earthquake, followed by floods, and extreme freezing weather in winter. The court was either providing disaster relief or on the way to provide disaster relief.

Your Majesty is also confident of winning this battle. After all, the Wei family has been a thorn in the side of two generations of emperors.

The grain and grass were given to Xie Yu for supervision. He was the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, in charge of the national treasury and the purse, so His Majesty directly gave the grain and grass to him for supervision this time.

However, no matter how capable Xie Yu was, it was a fact that the national treasury was short of food and money.

Even a skilled cook cannot cook without rice. Xie Yu can ensure the timely supply of food and fodder without embezzling a penny, but he will not create food and fodder out of thin air.

Gu Shaoyu handed a list to His Majesty.

Emperor Hui read it and saw the following:

Ye built a city and Lin Haohao, with 1,000 war horses, 300,000 dan of grain, and about 500,000 strings of silver.

Pan Renmei of Liangquan County, 2,000 war horses, 400,000 dan of grain, and about 1 million guan/liang of silver;

Liang Shicheng of Jishan County, 2,000 war horses, 400,000 dan of grain, and about 1 million strings of silver

……

When Emperor Huidi looked at the people on this list, it seemed that they were all famous scholars, such as Cai Jing, who had great attainments in calligraphy.

But what about the war horses, food, and money?

"Jingchen, what does this mean?"

Gu Shaoyu said, "Your Majesty, this is the list of names I found out from the interrogation of Princess Yurong's servants and maids when I was in Zizhou."

These are Princess Yurong’s lovers and granaries in various places.

Gu Shaoyu told Emperor Hui the whole story.

Of course, he was cautious and told His Majesty that Shen Su had not originally confessed (in fact, Shen Su had confessed in Zizhou). He thought that Shen Su had studied hard for ten years and gave him a chance to choose to be loyal to His Majesty.

Now that Shen Su has returned and expressed his willingness to be loyal to His Majesty, he has obtained this list.

People have been sent to investigate and it has been confirmed that these local tyrants are all the princess's men, and then they reported to Emperor Hui.

When Emperor Hui heard that it belonged to Princess Yurong, he immediately guessed that it was almost certain, and said gloomily: "She is supporting a man, and she actually hoarded so much food and silver! Is she supporting a man or preparing for a rebellion?"

"Your Majesty, when I was interrogating Jin Feng, I got a piece of news that Wei Jingzhong had been to the princess's residence before forcing her to abdicate and had a big argument with her."

Gu Shaoyu calmly sneered, "It is said that the two parted unhappily. Wei Jingzhong said that he had chosen the wrong person and should not have entrusted his life and property to Princess Yurong."

Emperor Hui felt a little relieved: "Yurong, these supplies belong to Wei Jingzhong? She refuses to return them to Wei Jingzhong?"

"Yes."

"Ha, this is what it means to be blinded by a falconer. Wei Jingzhong has been shrewd all his life, but he forgot that Yurong's last name is Zhou." Emperor Hui was happy and said, "Yurong finally did something a princess should do! I will summon Yurong to the palace later."

Gu Shaoyu lowered his eyebrows and said calmly: "Princess Yurong is not thinking about her surname Zhou, but forcing Wei Jingzhong to support her as the empress."

"What?" Emperor Hui widened his eyes in disbelief.

"Princess Yurong has a large amount of supplies. She wants to be the empress and refuses to support Zhou Jingrui's ascension to the throne! That's why the two quarreled."

"This bastard!" Emperor Hui was furious.

He thought that Princess Yurong was still clear-headed when it came to major issues, but he didn't expect that she was even more ambitious and actually wanted to ascend the throne to become the empress!

"I will immediately issue an order to confiscate the property of these so-called servants of the emperor and destroy their houses."

Pan Renmei and Liang Shicheng are both in states adjacent to Wei's army, and their properties must be raided immediately. Once Wei Jingzhong learns of their existence, he will probably take action first.

If we raid the homes of these people, we can provide the army with food and fodder for several months.

Raiding the enemy's homes to feed your own soldiers, this deal is a win!
