Chapter 170

For Xue Baojun, it was a common dish, so she couldn't eat much, but Wu Liushi couldn't help eating a few more mouthfuls.

"Your Majesty, I have to say...the craftsmanship in the small kitchen in the palace is really good!" Mrs. Wu and Liu said with emotion.

Xue Baoyun just smiled, but Hou Shiyun at the side knew that it was not a question of cooking skills at all, but a question of ingredients.

Apart from the small kitchen of the palace, the vast majority of people in the huge Yuanyang city can only meet food and clothing.

"By the way, the matter that I entrusted you to do before has come to fruition now?" Xue Baoyun asked casually.

Although Wu Liushi has no great talents, she still has some cleverness. She is very clear about Xue Baoyun's purpose in inviting her.

So in her mind, the answer was already prepared.

Putting down the chopsticks, Wu Liushi replied solemnly: "Reporting to the princess, everything has been done, my family said... There will be no trace left!"

Two or three hundred catties of material overruns can be easily digested as long as they are apportioned to other deficits.

After Wu Liushi said this, he said immediately afterward: "It's just that my family also said it, so don't repeat this matter, otherwise he will be very difficult to handle!"

Making false accounts is easy to cause accidents if it is done too much. Wu and Liu also have to consider for her husband.

Nodding his head, Xue Baojun looked at Yuzhu and said, "In the past few days, the palace has not overspend anymore, and there will be no more in the future!"

It is true that there will be no more in the future, because Xue Baojun has already seen her husband's determination to "anti-corruption", it is impossible for her to fight against her own man.

Even if there is a special reason to overspend in the future, it can be reported through legitimate means instead of embezzlement in the name of the princess.

"Come, come, eat more!" Xue Baoyun said with a smile.

At the moment she is very happy, Yuzhu is also very happy, and Wu Liushi is naturally also very happy.

Dongcheng, Chenghua Gate, above the city tower.

Looking at the soldiers lined up neatly below, Zhao Yanxun was extremely satisfied, and said to Fang Sheng beside him, "It's only taken so long to have such a military appearance. You, a thousand households, have done a good job!"

Fang Sheng was overjoyed. Although today's surprise inspection made him extremely disturbed, he was still very satisfied with the final result.

"Thank you, my lord, for your praise!" Fang Sheng nodded.

"In today's world, how important it is to train a strong army, I don't need to say more, you must understand!"

While talking, Zhao Yanxun turned and walked forward, while Fang Sheng followed carefully.

"My lord's instruction, I don't dare to forget it for a moment, and prepare the army every day, I only hope to share my worries for my lord!" Fang Sheng said humbly.

Normally, he is a majestic Qianhu in the eyes of his subordinates, but at this moment he is a respectful courtier.

"In a few days, this king will start cleaning up the monsters outside the city, do you know about this?"

Fang Sheng immediately replied: "I have heard about it, but the prince has orders, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Looking at the dense zombies outside the city wall, Zhao Yanxun stared at Fang Sheng and said, "Aren't you afraid of so many monsters outside?"

Fang Sheng was slightly stunned, and then replied: "Your Highness, if we can't get out, we can only be trapped in the city to death, and I don't want to sit and wait for death!"

This answer made Zhao Yanxun look up to Fang Sheng a little bit, this is a person who does great things.

This made Zhao Yanxun even more happy than today's training results.

"You have such an idea, this king is not mistaken about you!"

But then Zhao Yanxun said again: "But I heard that someone is spreading rumors in private, saying that going out to fight in the city is the matter of the Guards Division, and has nothing to do with the Bingma Division!"

"Under your command, do you have these rumors?"

In fact, not only the soldiers below thought this way, even Fang Sheng, who was a thousand householder, thought so in private.

"Your Highness, I have never heard of this incident. If there are such rumors under my command, I will definitely punish you severely!"

Speaking like this, Fang Sheng picked himself up completely, even if his subordinates made such remarks, he didn't know.

But Zhao Yanxun didn't want to pursue responsibility, he only heard him say: "Whether there is or not now, but there must be no more in the future!"

There are other people beside him at the moment, taking today's opportunity, Zhao Yanxun can just tell the soldiers and horses that they may also go out of the city to fight.

With so many soldiers recruited by the palace, it would be too easy for them to guard the city wall.

"Of order!" Fang Sheng replied solemnly.

Looking at the soldiers under the city wall again, Zhao Yanxun turned around and said: "Let them return to their respective positions, those who should be trained should stand guard!"

And he himself walked towards the front of the city wall, and he was observing the situation outside the city wall.

"I just hope that after cleaning up the more than 1 zombies outside, there won't be so many more..."

"Even if you want to come, as long as you don't come too much at once, you can build a defense line outside the city!"

Only by leaving the city can there be a way to survive... Zhao Yanxun said.

In Yongfu Palace, Wu Liushi accepted Xue Baoyun's reward after a full meal, and left the palace happily.

When she returned home, she found that her husband had returned and was listening to the report from the subordinate officials.

Seeing her husband's solemn expression, Wu and Liushi couldn't help but feel uneasy, thinking that she had encountered some trouble.

Soon after the official finished his report, he walked out of the room, while Wu and Liushi turned around to avoid it.

After the official left, Wu and Liu went to the living room where her husband was, but she was very worried when she saw her husband's sad face.

"Master, what's the matter?" Mrs. Wu and Liu asked.

Raising his head, Wu Hong said sullenly: "Wangfei said that the shortfall of the overspend is only three or four hundred catties, so why did it just be calculated...the overspending is a full eight hundred catties?"

Wu Liushi couldn't answer this question, she was just a mouthpiece in the middle.

"Master, this is nothing more than an extra five hundred catties. Wouldn't it be enough to do the accounts again?"

Hearing this, Wu Hong became even more angry, and said angrily, "You think...the accounts can be done casually?"

Wu Hong can find a way to do well with the shortfall of [-] catties, and he can do it if he bites his teeth for [-] catties.

But now there is a shortfall of [-] catties, and Wu Hong has no room to maneuver without any preparation.

What's even more irritating is that these bad debts were only checked out this morning, and the backlog was too deep to be discovered at all.

At this moment, Wu Hong couldn't sit still anymore, he got up and paced around and said, "If things get serious, we can't control what will happen to the princess, we will be in disaster!"

Hearing this, Wu Liushi's heart trembled, and he couldn't even hold the gift box firmly in his hand, and fell directly to the ground.

"Old...Master, what...what should we do?" Wu Liu said in a panic.

"Even if we die, we have to die to understand. Go to Yongfu Palace and ask... what's going on with the extra [-] catties of food shortage!" Wu Hong's voice became louder.

Wu Liushi nodded, quickly wiped away her tears and said, "Yes...the concubine will go right away!"
