Chapter 1301: Sending a Letter
Now, Huo Dongyang has made trouble and killed the old prince, and the people of the Zheng family want the emperor to arrest the other three princes and princesses of Dongqi Kingdom, and after thinking about it, the emperor rejected the Zheng family's request.
Huo Dongyang's killing of the old prince is his personal matter, or the instigation of the king of Dongqi Kingdom, all of this will be investigated before it can be decided whether to arrest the other princes and princesses of Dongqi Kingdom.
Because, if Huo Dongyang personally did it, the purpose was to sabotage the peace agreement between the three countries, and if the emperor responded to the Zheng family's request, it would not be exactly what Huo Dongyang wanted.
Once the peace agreement between the three countries is broken, it means that there will be a war between the three countries in the future, and once a war breaks out, it is the common people who suffer the most, and the most damaged is the silver in the treasury.
After several years of war, the treasury has already been emptied of most of it, and if it is fought for a few more years, the treasury will not be able to afford it at all, and when the time comes, there will be no silver, no grain and grass, and the soldiers will not have enough to eat and wear, so how can they have the strength to fight.
The emperor will never let Nanfeng Kingdom fall into war again because of a dead old prince.
However, for the sake of the old prince and the former emperor who had made a lot of contributions, the emperor specially rewarded the old man with a good coffin, and also ordered Qin Tianjian to calculate an auspicious time for the old man to be buried, which temporarily appeased the Zheng family.
"Mu, here's a letter, you throw it into the Zheng family's yard." Su Huaining called Mu in, took a letter, and handed it to him.
"Be careful, don't let anyone find out."
"Subordinates obey."
Wood took the letter and went out.
An hour later, Mu came back and reported, "Around the Zheng family, there are many people around, and there are many officers and soldiers guarding, and the subordinates can't get in, so they find a little beggar and give him ten copper plates, so that the little beggar can send the letter to the Zheng family's guards."
"Your face, didn't show it?" Su Huaining asked worriedly.
"The subordinates have changed their faces, and they haven't let the little beggar see his true face." Wood said.
Su Huaining was relieved, "Go and rest, you don't have to be on duty in the afternoon." Thinking of what was about to happen at night, Su Huaining commanded again, "Two more people will be on duty at night." ”
"Yes, master."
Wood went down.
In the evening, Su Huaining deliberately ate early, washed up and went to sleep after eating, blew out the lights in the house, and ordered Mu Xianghexiang to go back to their respective rooms to sleep, and there was no need to be on night duty at the door.
Then, Su Huaining entered the space and instructed Ling'er, "Pay attention outside, someone is coming, tell me." ”
"Master, the wife and children of that account are locked up in Aunt Zhen's small house, aren't you going to save them?" Ling'er asked.
"Why should I save them?" Su Huaining snorted coldly, "If that account is a shrewd one, it won't be at the mercy of Duan Xuchang, even if it is secretly someone to send a letter to me, can I still die without help?" ”
"Since he is the one who manages the account in the shop, he will not be a fool, and he also knows what will happen to me if he is at the mercy of Duan Xuchang and enters my room."
"He knows that he has to be at the mercy of Duan Xuchang, and he has no sense of self-help at all, such a person, why should I rescue his wife and children?"
Su Huaining's tone was full of fire, and he said angrily, "I will treat those who are loyal to me as family, but those who betray me, I will definitely let him know what it is like to live rather than die." ”
