The Male Wife

Chapter 257 Fiance Jiang Wei

Pei Cheng has really never seen someone like Chu Jingtian who would run over to beg someone he didn't like a while ago without any scruples - Pei Cheng himself.

Chu Jingtian's fiancé-in-law is Jiang Wei, who is the major general Jiang Wei who is currently fighting on the front line.

The Jiang family is a family of generals. Since Taizu Hua created the prosperity of the Hua Kingdom, the Jiang family has always been a family of generals, and they have been guarding the borders of the Hua Kingdom for so many years.Ever since Jiang Wei's grandfather, Huaguo has been in a peaceful and prosperous age, with few wars.

Originally, I thought that such a good life would last for decades, but I didn't expect that when Jiang Wei was young, the foreign troops from the Western Regions who had been peaceful for more than ten years suddenly rose up. They wanted to resist the rule of Huaguo, The banner of letting their children and grandchildren live with more dignity, resolutely tore up the 100-year peace treaty signed with Huaguo, not to mention, at the beginning of this year, several people who raided Huaguo were originally approaching Several small cities on the frontier.

Jiang Wei's eldest brother originally guarded the frontier, and Jiang Wei returned to China to protect the imperial capital.But just three months ago, just after Jiang Wei made a marriage contract with Chu Jingtian, Jiang Wei's elder brother suddenly encountered an accident. Now there is no Jiang Wei's elder brother in the frontier, so Jiang Wei resolutely took Leading the Jiang family's army to leave the imperial capital and rush to the frontier.

Chu Jingtian is naturally very convinced of Jiang Wei's ability, but now he does not believe that the military salary of the military camp can really support the supplies from the court to the military camp, nor does he believe that when the supplies from the imperial capital are transported to the military camp ahead, the military salary will not be enough. Will be corrupted halfway.

Chu Jingtian grew up in the royal family of this imperial capital city since he was a child. He is very aware of the filth in the imperial court, and he is also very aware of the delay in the process of raising the military salary for the new emperor and the fact that the military salary will be transported to the military camp in the next day. "Accidents" that happen along the way.

But who knows that these accidents are really accidents.

As a last resort, Chu Jingtian wanted to take the risk and begged Jiang Linzhi. He knew that Jiang Linzhi would definitely find a way. Jiang Wei who fought in the barracks.

Pei Cheng subconsciously looked at Jiang Linzhi who was sitting beside him. Chu Jingtian's request was beyond Jiang Linzhi's ability. In other words, even if Jiang Linzhi could secretly transport a Batches of military salaries and provisions were sent to the front barracks, but if the news got out, Wuwu Pavilion would definitely be coveted by many parties.

In fact, Pei Cheng was unwilling to let Jiang Linzhi take Wuwu Pavilion to this muddy water, but seeing Chu Jingtian's haggard look, Pei Cheng couldn't say no to it no matter what.

Jiang Linzhi lowered his eyes and said, "Young Master, your request is really embarrassing for Jiang. No matter how powerful the Wuwu Pavilion is, it is impossible to surpass the royal family at this critical moment. Now the new emperor is raising troops to follow him. For grain and grass, even if the national treasury is in short supply, so much money will not be available for a while, but as long as the new emperor asks, no one will really refuse."

Chu Jingtian wiped the tears off his face. He was really anxious, otherwise he would not have come to Jiang Linzhi at this critical moment. In fact, he had consulted with his father before he came here.Although the family property of Lord Bauhinia's Mansion is not as good as Wuwu Pavilion, it is not true that there is no such thing. It is more than enough to provide the military salary that can support the military camp for a period of time.

But what Chu Jingtian didn't expect was that his father actually refused after hearing his intention. Chu Jingtian didn't understand that the military camp is now fighting, and the most taboo thing is that there is no military salary, no food, no money, no food How can the soldiers fight without cotton coats?How can they defend their own country?

Obviously, everyone should understand these simple truths, but why is it that no one is willing to do anything for their country? Lord Bauhinia was almost pissed off by what Chu Jingtian said. What a stupid son, he wanted to have someone lock up Chu Jingtian, stay in his room and reflect on himself, and let him realize how stupid his decision really was, before letting him out.

But Chu Jingtian was even more angry. After being rejected by Lord Zijing, Chu Jingtian became angry immediately. He asked his father angrily, "Father, the war ahead is tight, the treasury is in short supply, and the new emperor has just ascended the throne. Many The matter has not been resolved, why, why are you unwilling to help our country now, and that person, that person is my son and my husband, why are you unwilling to help. "

"Jiang Wei is not really a useless man. If this young general who became famous at a young age is really defeated because of the military salary, then let him stay in the frontier completely, so as not to come back and harm you." Zijinghou The Lord said coldly, "The national treasury is losing money, and now the whole country is raising money because of the lack of pay for the military camps in front. Our Lord Bauhinia's Mansion has already paid out our share of the money. If we pay another sum now, the most eye-catching thing will be us."

"That man is Jiang Wei. He is my husband-in-law. Even if the Hou Ye's mansion is a little more expensive than other Hou Ye, we are normal and will not be insulted by others. Father, don't think so, okay?" Good." Chu Jingtian didn't realize what his father was worried about at all, and still begged his father bitterly.

Lord Bauhinia shook his sleeves and left, and said with a cold face, "I only have this money, if you still want to keep taking the money, then take it from your own private treasury, your husband and son-in-law belong to you, don't you?" I am entirely in Lord Zijing's mansion. There is no need for this Marquis to sacrifice my whole Lord Zijing's mansion for an outsider."

This is the conversation Chu Jingtian had with his father before he came to Jiang Linzhi.

Pei Cheng took a sip of scented tea, and looked at Chu Jingtian indifferently, "Wuwu Pavilion is not for charity. If anyone has a problem and asks for Wuji Pavilion, then Wuwu Pavilion will still be Wuwu Pavilion in the future."

Chu Jingtian stared at Pei Cheng in a daze, "Why do you even think this way?"

Pei Cheng's consideration is from Jiang Linzhi's position, and he is also thinking from the future of Wuwu Pavilion, so he will naturally make a choice that is beneficial to Wuwu Pavilion, and will not make a choice that is not beneficial to Wuwu Pavilion at all. s Choice.

For example, according to what Chu Jingtian said, the Wuwu Pavilion alone paid and worked hard to transport a sum of money to the military camp as military pay. It is estimated that only Chu Jingtian, who only cared about his own future husband-in-law, would do this. People will choose.

Chu Jingtian took a deep breath, instead of trying to beg Pei Cheng, he looked at Jiang Linzhi, who had not spoken from the beginning to the end. Bar."

Jiang Linzhi glanced at Chu Jingtian, and said seriously: "Pei Cheng is right. Wuji Pavilion is not owned by the imperial merchant, nor does it belong to the Jiang family. Wuwu Pavilion has already paid for it when the court announced to raise military salaries. Now You really don't need to continue looking for Wuwu Pavilion."

Chu Jingtian didn't expect that even Jiang Linzhi would reject him. He looked at Pei Cheng in disbelief, and then turned his eyes on Jiang Linzhi, "Why do you even think like this? Father's idea is wrong, Your thinking is also wrong. Even if it is not for the military camp, even if it is not for the Jiang family, you have to think about it. Once the military salary is not available, when the time comes, a new army will break through our first line of defense on the frontier, and then they will invade our Huayuan. China's territory will be easier."

Taking a deep breath, Chu Jingtian gritted his teeth, and continued: "At that time, our homeland will not be guaranteed. At that time, what do you need so much money for? What's the use of it? You won't even have a country, so what's the point of talking about a small family. "

"Why don't you tell the Jiang family these words?" Pei Cheng suddenly said when Chu Jingtian couldn't control himself.

Chu Jingtian was startled, and did not answer for a long time.

In fact, there is no need for Chu Jingtian to answer. Pei Cheng glanced at the expression on Chu Jingtian's face, and he knew why Chu Jingtian didn't speak anymore—Chu Jingtian was actually the last one he came to Wuji Pavilion. The place, he should have told the Zijing Houye Mansion, and then went to talk to the Jiang family, and finally had no choice, so he gritted his teeth and came to Jiang Linzhi from Wuwu Pavilion.

Pei Cheng's face was full of indifference, "You can't even talk to the Jiang family, why do you put such a big hat on Wu Wuge's head. After all, you are still afraid."

Chu Jingtian was rendered speechless by Pei Cheng's words, "At least I am willing, and I am willing to go around and raise money for the war ahead."

Pei Cheng's tone became even colder, "Now the whole country is collecting military pay. You are just worried about an unreasonable matter, and you are making a fuss in Hou Ye's mansion, Jiang's house, and Wuwu Pavilion one after another. Little Hou Ye, what are you doing? How can I say it to you."

Chu Jingtian looked at Pei Cheng. Since he met him, he had never seen Pei Cheng angry. This was the first time. He thought that Pei Cheng would only get angry when he was pushed hard. He didn't expect that he was only a few Just a few words can make Pei Cheng angry.

Pei Cheng had a faint pain in his abdomen, Pei Cheng didn't take it to heart, he started to have a pain in his abdomen from last night, he thought it was because the fruit he ate yesterday was not fresh, so he didn't take it too much to heart .

Pei Cheng said: "You just said that you are worried that the military salary will be embezzled by others, and you are worried that the military salary and food and grass will not be delivered in time. Do you dare to ask if all these worries happened?"

"No……"

"The new emperor's accession to the throne is imminent. Whether it's to stabilize people's hearts or to make the throne more stable, he will not let the military salary be embezzled halfway, let alone let the military camp be defeated due to insufficient military salary and food." Lian Pei The prime minister knew the truth, but Chu Jingtian didn't have any ideals.

It's just because I was too worried, that's why it happened.

Chu Jingtian was completely stunned.

He really hadn't thought of that.
