Chapter 259
Mu Zuihuan stood quietly for a moment, and then calmly accepted this sudden and miraculous event.

Quickly put away the items within sight, and then went to the warehouse.

When he had collected almost all his things, Mu Zuihuan asked Mo Yue to lead the way, and found Princess Derong and his wife.

On the attic of Yuyin Pavilion, a family of three sat together.

Princess Derong: "Transporting grain and grass is no joke. No one will let you, a princess who has not yet grown up, take on this important responsibility. If it fails to be delivered within the stipulated time, or something goes wrong along the way, the border officers will You lost your life due to your mistake.”

Mu Zuihuan nodded: "Mother, you know me. If you can't do it, you won't take matters into your own hands. Forget it in the past, the emperor's uncle was jealous of us, and we couldn't do anything that was good for the country and the people. Do it. But now the emperor's uncle is about to fail..."

Princess Derong frowned and glared at Mu Zuihuan.

"Hey, what I'm talking about is the truth." Mu Zuihuan pouted, "Mother, Qi Lian became the prince, but he was only the crown prince and had not yet ascended the throne. Once the emperor's uncle is gone, the eldest prince and the third prince will really be so obedient in their own eyes. Inaction in the government? At that time, the chaos in the royal family will definitely affect the border."

"Most of the officials in the capital are concerned about their own interests. When civil strife breaks out, they will only focus on pushing their favorite prince to the throne. No one will pay attention to the situation on the border. Even if there are people, who has the strength to take care of them?" To the border?"

"Mother, the emperor's uncle has been overworked for a long time, and now his emotions are too ups and downs, hurting his own yuan. Even if he takes good care of him, he will not live long. The palace is a place to eat people. This is what mother told me. Mother, are you sure?" , the emperor's uncle's current situation, even if he takes good care of him, will the situation really improve?"

Princess Derong was silent.

The imperial palace seems to be the most heavily guarded, but in fact it is no different from a sieve.

People's hearts are complicated, who can guarantee that the people inside are loyal to the emperor?

Everyone has their own plans.

The same goes for Princess Derong.

She never thought of taking the emperor's place and still treating him as her emperor's brother, but she also didn't want to make him better and continue to sit firmly on the throne.

The one who can sit firmly in that high position can only be a lonely family. For the royal family, feelings are out of reach.

Brother Huang has been in power for more than twenty years. Although he is in the prime of his life, his body has long been worn down and his mood is not as good as before.

Once he recovers, he will definitely pave the way for the prince in the remaining days and eradicate all people and forces that are harmful to the prince and Changrong.

The eldest princess's mansion will definitely bear the brunt.

She doesn't care whether she is the eldest princess or not, and whether she enjoys this honor, but she just doesn't want the emperor to be blinded by the power again, and ignore the soldiers on the frontier for the sake of the throne.

If something happens to Evergreen, what if the two countries are related by marriage?

As long as there is a chance, she is sure that Changshun's army will arrive at the border between the two countries and launch a campaign after the bride-to-be team leaves Beijing.

She originally thought that after Mu Zuihuan left, she would follow the emperor's imperial edict, control the capital, push Qi Lian to the throne smoothly, and keep the capital in order.

As for the border, she is not without arrangements.

"Mother, I have a way to quietly deliver food and grass to the border in the fastest and most stable way. Do you trust me?"

Princess Derong couldn't believe it.

Although her daughter is not small, she is not a showman, but she has never led an army, and has never been involved in the matter of escorting food and grass. How could she let her come so easily for such an important matter?

Mu Zuihuan knew that this would not work as soon as he saw her expression.

But she did not continue to lobby, but sighed: "My escort team will set off the day after tomorrow. It is the best time to escort the food and grass at that time. I will pack the boxes and cages first, mother, think about it carefully."

Princess Derong watched Mu Zuihuan leave, and when they were far away, she smiled wryly: "Huan'er is still too naive, escorting food and grass is not something that can be done with a single sentence, how can I entrust her with a child?" .”

Mu Zijue patted her hand: "However, Huan'er is right. The best time to escort the grain and grass is the day the escorting team leaves. Officials and people from the capital will definitely see each other off, and the team escorting the grain and grass will go another way. , it is safer to leave the capital together. Not everyone in the court cares about the border war. They only want to cause chaos outside, so that they can cause the chaos in the capital to follow, and then plot what they want."

"Fortunately, everything that needs to be prepared is ready." Princess Derong sighed.

Mu Zijue looked at Princess Derong and smiled softly, and took her into his arms: "You don't want Huan'er to escort you, but because there are too many carriages and horses, and the target is too big?"

Princess Derong found a comfortable position in his arms: "More than that. Huan'er has never been exposed to these things, so it's not suitable. Besides, who would dare to lose Huan'er's temper when he goes out? Put such an important thing on her?"

Mu Zijue couldn't help laughing.

He felt that this was the main reason why Princess Derong rejected Huan'er.

"Huan'er definitely wants to go to the battlefield. She can't escort food and grass. She will definitely find another way to go to the border. At that time, the mountains will be high and the roads will be far away. We can't control it if we want to. Instead of letting her take her own way, go and ask for a The imperial decree, let Huan'er go to the border in an open and honest manner."

Princess Derong sighed: "Forget it, even if she goes, she definitely doesn't want her identity to be exposed. As long as the food, grass and luggage are not delayed, let her go."

What they didn't know was that after Mu Zuihuan left Yuyin Pavilion, he went to the Raoliang Garden, dragged Luo Changge out of the mansion, and headed towards the place where Princess Derong used to store grain.

Since the emperor ascended the throne, Princess Derong has been collecting food in private. When the border is short of food but the court can't provide it, she will let people quietly send it to the border to relieve the urgent need of the border.

Therefore, although the border often fought, it was never chaotic and did not affect the court.

Except for the grain storage in Kyoto, other cities in Evergreen have granaries.

The granary in Kyoto does not look like it stores a large amount of grain. From the outside, it is just a not too big house, and no one is guarding it.

But once inside, an expert like Luo Changge would quickly notice that there were secrets hidden in the house, and there were many hidden people guarding the house.

Mu Zuihuan took out a token and shook it, then said to Luo Changge and Mo Yue who was leading the way: "You guys wait here, I'll go in and take a look."

Walking towards the kitchen on one side, the person guarding the kitchen appeared immediately and opened the secret passage for her.

She pushed back the hidden guards who were about to follow, and went into the dark passage alone.

Below this is a huge warehouse that has been hollowed out. Apart from this entrance, there are other places.

As far as the eye can see, there are cloth bags full of grain, piled to the brim.

Mu Zuihuan walked around like a patrol, and then left the underground warehouse.

It's like really just looking at it.

"Come on, let's go to the Ministry of Accounts."

Not to mention that Luo Changge didn't know what she was going to do, even Mo Yue, who grew up with Mu Zuihuan, didn't know what her county chief was doing.
