Chapter 965: How were the weapons forged and delivered?

Chapter 965 How were the weapons forged and delivered?

"Why are these... all meat dishes?"

she asked confused.

Are there so many meat and vegetable resources here? We can eat meat every day, the food is really good!

However, several generals had wry smiles on their faces.

Butler Zhou explained helplessly:

"We can't do anything about it. The weather in the northern border is cold, and it's covered with ice and snow for most of the year. We can only grow spring wheat, soybeans, and corn, and basically can't grow vegetables. It's hard to transport vegetables and fruits from outside. Even if they can be transported here, we can't afford to eat them. The court hasn't paid the military for more than half a year, and the food and grass haven't been delivered for several months. The food in the warehouse is only enough to sustain for a few days. Usually, we just use wheat, soybeans, corn and other things to make porridge or coarse flour buns. The meat is also sent here by the soldiers who hunted wild animals in the mountains."

A general replied:

"In fact, compared to eating meat, most people prefer to eat some fruits and vegetables, even if they are not fresh. It is really difficult to eat some fruits and vegetables here!"

Qiao Ran nodded in understanding, feeling very unfair for the soldiers guarding the border. They worked so hard, yet could hardly eat even ordinary vegetables and fruits.

Thinking of the supplies in her space, she assured everyone:

"Don't worry, everyone. When we came here, we asked several escort agencies to deliver some food and supplies day and night. The first batch will be delivered in the afternoon, and the rest will be delivered later. We have food, vegetables, cotton clothes and shoes, and even weapons. We guarantee that everyone can eat well and wear warm clothes, and we can have new and useful weapons for fighting. In addition, I also purchased some food and vegetable and fruit seeds, some of which were bought from foreign merchants. I selected some seeds suitable for the cold climate in the northern border. You can try to plant them and see."

Several generals opened their mouths in shock:

"How did they get so much food and supplies? It can't be distributed by the imperial court, right? Then why are there even weapons?"

If the food and weapons were distributed by the imperial court, they would have been escorted by soldiers and officials. It would be impossible for the Crown Prince and the future Crown Princess to ask an escort agency to deliver them.

As we all know, weapons are strictly controlled by the imperial court. Except for the Ministry of War, no one else is allowed to privately forge weapons. If anyone is found out, he will be charged with treason and his entire family will be punished.

They couldn't figure out how the Crown Prince and the future Crown Princess forged the weapons and sent them over?

Mo Beihan explained with a smile:

"Those weapons were all moved from Prince Ping's private vaults. Ranran and I found several of Prince Ping's secret vaults and looted all the food supplies and weapons from them and sent them to the Northern Frontier. Even if it's a crime of treason, it was Prince Ping who committed treason."

The generals were in an uproar.

They were shocked that the idle prince who was said to have no interest in the throne would actually hide weapons with the intention of treason, and they were even more shocked that the Crown Prince and the future Crown Princess could actually plunder the food supplies and weapons that King Ping had worked so hard to store and send them to the northern border.

But come to think of it, the throne, the supreme position! What a great temptation!

How could there be a prince who would not be interested in that position?

The battle for the throne has always been cruel, with all kinds of tricks used in open and covert struggles. It is not surprising that King Ping used illusions to confuse outsiders.

But they couldn't figure out how these two people had secretly stolen so many supplies and weapons from the treasure house of King Ping? How did they deceive so many informants in the capital and send them to the northern border?

Some upright generals directly asked the questions in their hearts.

Qiao Ran looked at Mo Beihan, who smiled and said:

"Ran Ran is a medical saint who is good at both medicine and poison. She can just sprinkle some powder and knock out the guards and pursuers. After waking up, they don't remember what happened, so we didn't attract anyone's attention."

The generals were skeptical about his understated explanation, but they all looked at Qiao Ran with awe.

It is not easy for a woman to study medicine, and it is even more incredible that she can become a medical saint among several surrounding countries at such a young age.

Such a capable girl is about to become the Crown Prince's Consort and the future mistress of Dingbei Palace. This is the blessing that their Crown Prince has accumulated in several lifetimes, and it is also the blessing of Dingbei Palace and Dingbei Army!
