Chapter 2666 trust

Crabs are cold in nature. Although they are delicious, they don't dare to eat more. Especially Mingda, she only ate one, but Man Bao and Chang Yu were okay because of their health, so they picked two in a row.

Although he was still in the mood, he still gave up.

Stay healthy, you will have a long time in Japan.

After eating crabs, Man Bao took them to the guest room to rest. The three of them sat cross-legged on the couch, all a little sleepy.

Chang Yu looked around and saw that there were only the three of them and the maid who served him in the room, so he lowered his voice and said, "Guess who I met on the street today?"

Man Bao yawned, put the pillow on the couch on the other end, leaned down directly, closed his eyes and said, "Have you met Lou Mian?"

Chang Yu stared, "How do you know?"

Mingda said: "Because we met Gaoyou."

Changyu:  …

Seriously, among them, the one with the closest relationship with the Goguryeo messenger is Changyu.

Man Bao has also met each other two or three times. If he hadn't had a good memory, he would have forgotten who they were.

After all, Chang Yu has seen a few more people.

Since Gao You had even found out the doorposts that Bai Shan had given him in the past, it makes no sense not to send someone to follow the path of the more familiar Princess Changyu.

Man Bao lifted his eyelids a little and asked, "What did you tell him? Wasn't the concubine always by your side today?"

"I didn't say anything," Chang Yu said, "I just asked him to bow."

She hummed, "I'm not stupid. What good can he do when he comes to the door at this time?"

Seeing that she could figure it out on their own, Ming Da and Man Bao nodded approvingly.

Chang Yu frowned, "Why can't Goguryeo always live peacefully? What's the point of always trying to occupy our land?"

Man Bao said: "That is a vassal state. Originally, the land it occupies is integrated with the Central Plains. Your Majesty has all the people in his heart. Whether it is Han, Turk, or Hei people, they are all the people of Jin. There are less people from the same clan than them, and His Majesty wants to take back the territory that Goguryeo has divided up, and Goguryeo naturally wants to occupy the Central Plains.”

Although the war was indeed provoked by Goguryeo, Manbao did not intend to beautify the emperor. The unification of the world is the general trend. If they follow the rules and the two sides are at peace, His Majesty may not fight them, but as time goes by, the country will After the army is strong and strong, it will still be unified.

It's just too early now.

Chang Yu frowned, "It's just a small piece of land, I saw it on the map, it's about the size of my thumb, and there are Silla and Baekje to the south of Goguryeo, what's there to grab?"

Man Bao closed his eyes and said, "Don't underestimate Goguryeo. There are a lot of Han people in it. In terms of intelligence, they are not much weaker. And they have 600,000 soldiers and horses, which is quite a lot."

Even Mingda was surprised, "So many?"

Man Bao nodded, "Bai Shan said that the people of their country are fierce, and young men must learn to kill, and almost everyone can be a soldier."

Minda worried, "How long will this take?"

"I don't know, but it's almost winter, it will last two or three months at most. If it doesn't come down, it may be another year next year," Man Bao got a little bit of energy, sat up, and said in a low voice, "I see Your Majesty's determination this time. It's very strong, maybe it's also annoyed by Goguryeo's backtracking."

Originally, the relationship between the two parties was good a few years ago. The Imperial College has accepted your prince as a student, but when you turn around, you will attack our country;

If you can't beat it, then kneel down and beg for mercy, we all kindly let you go, how long has it been, turned around and reversed, no matter how good the emperor's temperament is, it will be worn away.

Chang Yu took her hand and said, "Man Bao, you have to come back safely."

Man Bao said confidently: "Don't worry, I'm a doctor, and I don't go to the front line, I only save people from below."

"That's what you said, but swords and guns have no eyes, who knows?" Mingda asked, "How many guards are you taking with you this time?"

"This time, it is with His Majesty's personal expedition, and it is not my chief officer. I definitely can't bring too many. Dingtian can bring two guards." Man Bao said: "It depends on the quota given above."

Yes, each official has a fixed number of family members and servants. Although you are responsible for their food and drink, can you carry dry food for two or three months when you go out for two or three months?

Shouldn't it be funded by the Ministry of Households?

So they must limit the number of places. Otherwise, whoever is greedy for life and fear of death will bring more than a hundred guards. Does the Ministry of Household have to consider these rations?

"By the way, I just saw your fourth brother and second niece-in-law. What good things did they bring back from the north this time?"

Man Bao immediately got up and said to her: "You asked a good question, there are a lot of good things, some gems and jade, I will show you later."

Chang Yu nodded again and again, "You have to count me cheaper."

"Whoever is between us, it must be cheaper for you. After you make beautiful jewelry and take it out, you have to tell them that the gems and jade were bought by my fourth brother."

Chang Yu nodded happily, "It's easy to say, easy to say."

Mingda couldn't help but ask: "Sister, we are going back to the palace to see mother at night, do you still have so much money?"

"Don't worry," Chang Yu said, "in a short while, my Zhuangzi Shang and the fief will send this year's harvest."

Mingda: "...Isn't this all delivered in November and December?"

"It's been a few months."

Now not only Mingda, but Man Bao was speechless, and the two said, "You can't eat your food like this."

"No," Chang Yu said confidently, "My shop is already making money, don't worry."

After she has made beautiful jewelry, she will wear it for two days and then send it to the Treasure Pavilion to sell. It will only make a profit, not a loss.

Man Bao and Ming Da knew what she was thinking, what else could they do besides applauding?

The three got together and talked for a while, and then went to see what Thuro and the others brought back together.

Zhou Lijun came over with several boxes in his arms, while Zhou Lijun sat on a chair with a big belly and opened the boxes for the two princesses to see.

She mainly aimed at Princess Changyu. She opened a small box and took out a green gemstone and said, "Princess, look at this color and shape."

Chang Yu saw it, his eyes were slightly bright, he lifted the gem to the sunlight to compare it, and then put it on his finger for comparison.

Zhou Lijun smiled and said, "When I saw it, I thought, this is the most suitable ring for the princess."

Chang Yu got excited, and said to Man Bao Ming Da: "I think it is very suitable, what do you think?"

Man Bao and Ming Da nodded together, which is very suitable, and her fingers are white and slender, and they look good.

Seeing that she liked it, Zhou Lijun smiled and said, "The other things are fine, but this one is the most suitable for the princess, so we kept it from the beginning, just to show the princess."

Chang Yu nodded proudly and said, "Yes, I want it."

Man Bao was speechless, "Don't you even ask the price?"

Chang Yu said indifferently, "A thousand pieces of gold are hard to buy, I like it, and you won't cheat on me."

She said meaningfully: "Our business is still going on for a long time."

Man Bao said: "At this point, you are so smart again."

See you at 6 pm
