After taking care of Du Changfeng, Prince Chu's heart was finally at ease. Du Changfeng had brought his bride to another place and would never come in front of him again to get in the way.
He was in a good mood so he went to find the crown prince for a drink.
The Crown Prince was a bit surprised. "Third Brother doesn't need to accompany the wangfei, but do you have the leisure to drink with me?"
Morong Gan laughed a little helplessly, "Since he's always under my nose, she also finds it annoying. He keeps on telling me to do more serious work."
The Crown Prince laughed, "Princess, you're still the most reasonable one. The closer we get to the inauguration ceremony next year, the busier I'll be. I can't help but ask Third Brother for a share."
"Serving for second brother is my responsibility." The development of the Northwest was suggested by him, so the crown prince did not seem to be too concerned about it, so he could only carry it on his own, thinking that after Bai Qianfan gave birth to her child next year, he would have to go over and investigate it on the spot.
The crown prince called for the servants to set up the dishes, he picked up the wine Morong Gan brought over and sniffed it, "It does look a little like a woman."
I can smell it immediately, "Morong Gan said with a smile." Sixteen years of being a girl and being dug out from under a osmanthus tree, Housekeeper Shi invited me to open the lid, and it was filled with a fragrant and rich taste alcohol. Indeed, not bad, Housekeeper Shi gave me two bottles, and I'll give it to Second Brother to taste. "
The crown prince knew about the matter between Du Changfeng and Bai Qianfan, but he couldn't bring it up. He smiled and said, "Third brother treats your subordinate really well.
Morong Gan poured some wine for the crown prince and said with lowered eyes, "When we were at Lin An, we had some sort of deep relationship with him. Now that he has gone to the northwest, not only is he eating his wedding wine, he is also doing what he should do.
Since he mentioned the northwest, the Crown Prince had to say a few words. "The rules reported by Third Brother recently are all related to the northwest. It seems that Third Brother has to do something to develop the northwest."
"In the past, the late emperor had already thought of developing the Northwest, but unfortunately, he left it at that, he has a unique insight, and since he thinks it is feasible, I have to give it a try. Third Brother knows my personality, so if I decide something, I won't be able to turn back until I run into a bloody mess."
"The late emperor's wisdom is something we can't compare to, but it's a pity his physique is not strong enough. Otherwise, how could he have ended up in such a situation?" The Crown Prince sighed, "Third brother, do you know about the situation in the north?"
"My mind has been on the northwest for some time now. Isn't Second Brother's men watching the northern side of the city? Why are you asking me?" Has something happened? "
The Crown Prince laughed, "Earlier, Big Brother and Monda were at the northern border trading area, and their relationship seemed to be a mess. No one knows why, but they have started fighting again, and it wasn't a big commotion, and it was just a small fight, but they were probably still taking care of their face, and did not want to go overboard, as if they had negotiated a few times. But recently, I received news that Big Brother sent fifty thousand men of the Armoured Cavalry Battalion to the Northern Territory, and before long, they will probably start fighting again."
After a while, he said, "Although Monda is a small country, its territory is vast, going from the north to the west, more than half of the He Xi Corridor belongs to them. If he wants to start a war, then does he want to strengthen the northwest border as well, just in case."
"I guessed the idea of Monda, it must be that they want to take advantage of us being split into two and attack them one by one. Right now, they don't have the energy to deal with us, we can just watch from the sidelines." He observed Morong Gan's expression, "If they really started fighting, Third Brother wouldn't be thinking of helping out, right?"
"I won't," Morong Gan shook his head. "With the northern troops, dealing with Monda is enough. What Big Brother lacks is a general;
The Crown Prince put down the wine cup in his hand and asked, "Since the Iron Cavalry Battalion by Wei Shui has been reduced by a quarter, why don't we take advantage of this …"
Morong Gan's expression became serious, "Second brother still wants to go north?"
The Crown Prince lowered his eyes and didn't say anything.
Morong Gan poured two wine glasses full, "I suggest second brother to give up on this idea. We have already done most of the preparations for the founding of the Kingdom, and will move once the new Palace is completed. Moreover, everyone knows about this matter, and if we go back on our word and lose the hearts of the people, second brother will not make up for the losses."
He raised his wine cup, "I wish second brother a bright future, younger brother is willing to serve Mandarin Seed and be loyal to him for all eternity, and to do great things for second brother."
Morong Gan's meaning was extremely clear. As long as he stayed at peace, he would be loyal to his side and help protect his country. Otherwise, the outcome would be unknown.
He regretted his probing a little, for fear that Morong Gan would be suspicious, he smiled indifferently, "Third brother is mistaken, that is not what I meant. We had originally planned on using Jinling to strengthen the navy, but unfortunately, the north has some complaints about it, because of his two hundred thousand, we do not dare to act rashly.
"So Second Brother is talking about this," Morong Gan laughed, "Then let's increase the number of water masters in the East Yue. The water masters there are weak to begin with, and there are a lot of mischievous refugees in the coastal area to the south who do not dare to pursue us too far, it's just that we need to strengthen our power at the right time."
The water master is the same, I also want to be like my third brother, the Imperial City Division, right now we do not have an organization that specializes in gathering information, to be honest, third brother, when I was in the Eastern Palace, I had dealings with the martial arts world and established an organization called the 'undercover organization'. Back then, I was able to escape because of them, they often went out on their own, they are well-informed, and they are very loyal to me, if third brother is not against it, I will use some of them to set up the Imperial City Division for the new dynasty.
The crown prince took the initiative to mention about the secret plan, which surprised Morong Gan a bit. He knew about the secret plan, but the crown prince had never made it known that it was already used, and with his identity, who would not have a secret plan by their side. It was not strange for the crown prince to set up a secret plan, it was strange that the crown prince wanted to pull the secret plan into the imperial court.
Thinking about it carefully, the Crown Prince was just trying to show him his position and sincerity. If he didn't hide anything from him, he would be able to go further in the future.
As the two brothers drank and talked about matters of state, they gradually got drunk. Their faces turned red and their eyes turned red, but it was rare for them to reveal what was going on in their hearts. They seemed to have returned to the days when they were riding together, laughing and laughing, and fell on Kuppy's bow.
Morong Gan put down his wine cup, his eyes somewhat blurred, "Second brother, I still have one thing to do … "Jewel …"
The Crown Prince knew what he was going to say, "Don't worry, after the inauguration ceremony next year, I will personally propose a marriage for Zhu'er, and it will definitely be a good home for her."
Morong Gan nodded his head, at that point, there was nothing for him to worry about, it was as though the alcohol had solved all of his worries, his mouth formed a smile, and supported himself up on the table: "I seem to have drunk too much, if I go back, I might cause the princess to get angry, and I won't be able to drink anymore, I have to go now."
The Crown Prince stood up and sent him off, then instructed Jia Tong who was standing outside, "Take care of the Crown Prince and bring him back.
Morong Gan smiled and waved his hand, and did not allow Jia Tong to support him, he stumbled and walked away.
The Crown Prince watched him walk away and turned around to return back into the house. Seeing Zhuge Langyu standing under the lamp, his slightly blurred eyes regained its calmness, "Teacher said that those who obtain the Prince Chu will rule the world. "But now …"
"Your Highness, you don't have to worry," Zhuge Qianyu stroked his beard, and looked at him with a smile, "Right now, aren't we following through with our plan?"
