Su Muyao turned to look at Lord Wang.

"Lord Wang, since you think others are not up to the task, then you should take the job."

Surely Lord Wang's practical skills are far superior to his verbal ones?

Upon hearing the princess's words, Lord Wang quickly replied, "I am merely a civil official; how could I possibly understand matters of leading troops into battle?"

Su Muyao couldn't help but scoff upon hearing this: "If you're scared, just say so. Why make up so many excuses?"

Why doesn't His Highness the Crown Prince back down when he's fighting on the front lines?

While you were pacifying the war, you were enjoying good food and drink in Jinzhong, with beautiful women serving you at home.

His Highness the Crown Prince, however, was out there fighting for the people of the entire dynasty.

I just wanted to travel around and see the beautiful landscapes of our great dynasty, but it's all been twisted in your mouth.

If I remember correctly, the Crown Prince had already gone sightseeing before this letter even arrived in the capital.

This calamity, though seemingly out of nowhere, was actually something that could have been predicted by human effort.

Although Lord Wang was a civil official, he felt that His Highness the Crown Prince, who had fought so many battles and risked his life for the country, was unsuitable, so he decided that Lord Wang should take over.

Immediately afterwards, the Prime Minister jumped out and said, "Your Majesty, I have reconsidered."

At this point, the others also said, "We agree."

This really worried Lord Wang, a civil official who couldn't lift a finger or carry anything heavy.

Now, the little princess is putting herself in a very difficult position.

If I were really sent to the front lines to fight, wouldn't I be cannon fodder?

Suddenly, Wang Dacheng knelt down on the ground with a thud.

"Your Majesty, this old minister is getting on in years."

How can someone who struggles to walk fight a war? I urge Your Majesty to reconsider!

Su Muyao came up to Lord Wang and kicked him to the ground.

"The people who truly risk their lives for the country are portrayed as villains in your eyes. How can you be so greedy for life and afraid of death?"

At this moment, Lord Wang said to the little princess, "It was my fault for speaking out of turn. I hope the little princess will forgive me."

At this moment, Lord Wang was cursing the little princess to the bone in his heart.

I never expected that this little princess would actually defend the crown prince at this time.

It wasn't just a rumor that the little princess and the crown prince had already broken up.

Moreover, it was precisely for this reason that the Emperor deposed His Highness the Crown Prince.

They even promoted Su Muyao from a county princess to a little princess.

This effectively dashed all of His Highness the Crown Prince's hopes.

Who in the entire capital doesn't know that His Highness the Crown Prince has always been in love with Su Muyao?

But the falling flowers are willing, while the flowing water is heartless!

He had originally thought that by saying this, the little princess would think highly of him, but he never expected that it would backfire.

How could the other ministers not know the little princess's methods?

No matter how tough they are, they can't compare to that carefree king.

Even the carefree king was killed by that little girl's shot.

How could these people dare to speak recklessly in front of the little princess?

Even if someone said something wrong in front of the emperor, at most they would just retire and return to their hometown, or at worst they would be punished.

However, saying the wrong thing in front of the little princess could very well cost you your life.

This Lord Wang is really blind; it's one thing for him to be so argumentative and disrespectful to everyone and everything.

Now they've actually gone straight to the Crown Prince.

In her heart, Su Muyao cursed Lord Wang, calling him a complete idiot, utterly foolish.

Even if Longyuan was bad, he was still a hero of a great dynasty.

He was the legitimate son of the emperor and empress, who was responsible for preserving half of the empire for the dynasty.

In any case, it's not his place to criticize as a little adult.

Seeing that Lord Wang was being put in an awkward position by the little princess, the emperor finally spoke up and said, "Lord Wang is indeed getting on in years."

Now that he knows he misspoke, he shouldn't do it again.

The emperor originally intended to take over the matter, but then he heard Su Muyao's voice: "Uncle Emperor."

Since Lord Wang himself knows he has said the wrong thing, then he should be taught a lesson.

Even children know that if they do something wrong, they should make amends, shouldn't they?

The emperor's heart was pounding. He thought that Yao Yao might not really be dead or alive, and that he should send Lord Wang to the front lines.

If Lord Wang were sent to the front lines, he would surely die!

Lord Wang knelt on the ground, trembling like Sai Kang.

Whether she lives or dies, it all comes down to the little princess's words.

Lord Wang now wishes he could slap himself twice for his foul mouth.

It's one thing for him to be sarcastic on ordinary days, but why did he bring up Long Yuan today?

Most importantly, there's the little princess. Even though she and Long Yuan have fallen out, they've been playing together since they were little.

How could I not have thought of this? I'm such an idiot! (｀Δ′)

Lord Wang was cursing himself in his heart at this moment.

Then Su Muyao's voice rang out: "Yaoyao thinks that the journey is long and the soldiers in the army fight every day, so they need to replenish their strength."

"Why don't we have Lord Wang donate ten thousand taels of gold, and have those going to the front lines exchange it for supplies?"

Upon hearing this, Lord Wang immediately fell backward.

Ten thousand taels of gold means that Lord Wang has emptied his entire fortune.

Even if you sell the entire house, you can only raise ten thousand taels of gold at most.

The other adults twitched at the same time, silently mourning for Lord Wang.

The emperor nodded upon hearing this: "Then let it be as the Grand Preceptor says. I hope that Your Excellency will think more carefully before you speak in the future."

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at the people in the court again and finally chose a young general.

Su Muyao wasn't very interested in what happened next; she needed to hurry back and check on how her shop was doing.

The original intention was simply to see if the emperor knew about it; if not, then he would tell him the news.

Now that I know about this court, there's nothing more for me to do.

"Uncle, since there's nothing else, Yao Yao will take her leave now."

The shop over there opened today; I have to go check it out.

Upon hearing this, the emperor quickly waved his hand: "Go quickly, don't stay here and delay your business any longer?"

Immediately afterwards, Su Muyao left the palace and headed towards her shop.

After Su Muyao left, everyone in the main hall breathed a sigh of relief.

This little tyrant is finally gone; with him around, none of the ministers dared to speak out of turn.

I'm afraid I'll just snap and break again in the next second.

When Su Muyao arrived at her shop, she found everything in an orderly manner, and preparations were almost complete.

The women who were recruited yesterday also brought their husbands with them.

Su Muyao was quite satisfied with the men they brought.

They all looked like honest, hardworking farmers.
