Li Junche took off the token hanging from Wen Jinhe's waist, "This token can not only command the secret guards of Prince Che's Mansion, but it is also the key to opening this secret door."
Li Junche used his hands to peel away the sand in the center of the sand mold, and a depression exactly like the token appeared in front of him.
"Put the token in, and Zhuge Jian will see the face of the person holding the token. If it weren't for me and you, he wouldn't open the door." Li Junche hung the token back on Wen Jinhe's waist.
Wen Jinhe blinked and finally straightened out, "That's why you took me to see Zhuge Jian. A face and a token are indispensable. The secret room outside filled with military generals' information and books is actually a cover-up to cover up the real underground." The secret room, right?”
Li Junche nodded and admitted, "There are many secret guards in Prince Che's palace outside this secret room, including Zhao Bi He Shi and they all know about it."
Wen Jinhe looked at Li Junche's face seriously, "Why did you suddenly bring me here today?"
Li Junche put his hands on Wen Jinhe's shoulders, bent down and said softly, "I just think I should tell you."
If one day what he did failed, or the people he left in Prince Che's Mansion could not protect her, Li Junche hoped that she could escape from the capital through this secret passage and survive.
Wen Jinhe pursed his lips and asked seriously: "What did you originally plan to use this secret passage for?"
Li Junche's eyes drooped, and his expression was a little gloomy.
Wen Jinhe forcibly raised his face and said, "With the secret passage leading thirty miles outside the city, tens of thousands of troops can quietly move into the capital, catching the enemy by surprise."
Even the city guards at the western suburbs camp couldn't find it. By the time they realized it, the capital had already been destroyed.
Li Junche dug his fingers into the soft flesh under Wen Jinhe's shoulders, "Jinhe's ability to see through people's hearts makes people panic."
Wen Jinhe raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, stretched out his hand to push down Li Junche's back, turned around and jumped up, "I can't guess anyone's heart."
The three messengers who were in the inn were assassinated in the middle of the night, and their bodies were first carried and thrown into a mass grave.
At the same time, in a room opposite the inn, an open window was closed.
When having breakfast the next day, Wen Jinhe noticed that Princess Qinbao was uneasy.
Sure enough, after eating, she said she wanted to go back to the palace.
In the western suburbs camp.
Several lieutenants and lieutenants stood together and talked about it.
Today they saw a carriage bearing the sign of Glass House heading towards the Eastern Suburbs Camp, followed by two soldiers from the Eastern Suburbs Camp.
After asking someone about it, I found out that the telescope being developed by the Glass Workshop had already begun mass production.
The first batch of two hundred were bought by King Che and transported to the eastern suburbs camp.
Others have already started to drink mutton soup, and they are still eating wild vegetables. How can we not make people feel unbalanced.
Wouldn't he come to support Wei Ming, the general of the country?
Hearing the guards say that they could go in, a dozen military generals rushed into Wei Ming's camp, "General, we can't lag behind in this matter, otherwise the majesty of the city guard will be useless."
Wei Ming looked at the angry subordinates standing in front of him with a headache, "The glass shop is a workshop under the name of Princess Che, and the eastern suburbs camp is led by Prince Che. Princess Che must be biased towards their own people, since mass production has begun. , it will be sold in stores sooner or later, you don’t have to worry.”
The captain raised his eyebrows and complained in a sharp voice: "General, we asked, one telescope costs one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and the Eastern Suburb Camp purchased two hundred of them at once for thirty thousand taels of silver. The king also wants to send it to the border garrison. I heard that our western suburbs camp has spent more than half of its military money this year. Will there be no money to buy it by then? "
Wei Ming's hand holding the sword was a little stiff. When he took over the western suburbs camp from Qing Guogong, there was not much military silver left.
He once reported this matter to the emperor, but the emperor said that there was no war in the capital and was relatively stable. The annual military pay was fixed and the treasury could no longer allocate money repeatedly.
You Zhicheng, the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance, is even more of an iron cock, adding fuel and jealousy to the side, but there is no leak at all.
We really don’t have the money to buy telescopes in the western suburbs camp right now.
Seeing that Wei Ming remained silent, everyone was worried that something had happened.
How does this work?
Everyone is a soldier in the army, and the rank of the official position is the same. How come others have it, but they don't? Isn't this treated differently? If they meet, they will not be ridiculed to death.
"General, the glass shop is an imperial merchant, and the emperor cannot favor one over the other. When our brothers go out, no one will take us seriously."
"No, General, you have to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to ask for money. Why is it that the eastern suburbs camp has it but our western suburbs camp doesn't have it?"
Wei Ming raised his hand and touched his head, "Prince Che and Princess Che are husband and wife. They may be provided free of charge. This general should not have that face."
The captain who spoke first immediately shook his head in denial, "My subordinate specifically asked, Prince Che bought it at the original price."
……
A cart of two hundred telescopes was transported to the camp in the eastern suburbs, including one for everyone with the rank of captain or above.
The accountant of the glass shop took the handover order and went to the guard of the military camp to collect the money.
The guard's face was distorted when he looked at the handover form signed by Li Junche. Thirty thousand taels. This was to take out all the remaining purchasing money for the Eastern Suburb Camp this year!
In the remaining Western months, where will I pay for food and vegetables?
The guard had no choice but to ask the accountant to wait while he went to find Li Junche with the account book of the eastern suburb camp.
"Your Majesty, although not much military pay was spent in the first half of this year, and no soldiers died and no pension money was required, the military pay allocated by the Ministry of Revenue at the beginning of the year was 20%25 less than in previous years, so the remaining Western month's pay was removed from the account. I only have a little over 30,000 yuan left. If I spend it all at once, how will I survive the next month? I’m afraid I won’t be able to afford coarse grains next month.”
Li Junche thought that Wen Jinhe had told him that the money for these telescopes must be collected, otherwise others would want to freeload. One hundred and fifty taels each was not cheap, and the cost was still high.
"You settle the money from the glass shop first. If it's not enough next month, I will find a way."
Since the palace's property was rectified by Wen Jinhe, its monthly profits have increased several times, and there is a lot of surplus in the account, which can be used to fill this gap.
"Hey." The guard agreed, turned around and went to pay the bill to the cashier. He just reminded King Che that after all, when the money was not enough in the past, King Che paid for it out of his own pocket.
But Prince Che and Princess Che are a family, so why do they have to pay money when buying things?
