Chapter 92 Military Supervisor, please say something
The words of Xiangli made everyone present stunned.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is famous for his benevolence, so kind that he would not even step on an ant to death.
But there is also such a sharp side.
Xiangying immediately drew out the sword from Skinny Monkey and walked towards the roaring and cursing Concubine Shangguan.
Perhaps it was because of the murderous intent in her phoenix eyes that Concubine Shangguan screamed as miserably as a pig being slaughtered.
"Xiangying! If you dare to kill me, you will regret it, you will definitely..."
Before she could finish her words, there was a slight sound of a sword entering flesh, which stopped her roar abruptly.
Concubine Shangguan widened her eyes and slowly looked down. The three-foot sword blade had already entered her chest.
Miss Zheng was frightened and horrified. She cried and screamed, "Princess, I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again!"
Concubine Shangguan glared at Xiangying: "You, you..."
Xiangying pulled out the sword expressionlessly, causing the old concubine to tremble, and then she fell limply at Xiangying's feet.
She swung the blade and drops of blood fell vertically onto the deck.
"I do regret it. You shouldn't have been among the people I saved." Xiangying lowered her eyes and stared at the old concubine's corpse, the tone that came out of her red lips was quite ruthless.
She returned the sword to the skinny monkey, and the rest of the people were executed according to law.
Suddenly, there were sounds of crying, admitting mistakes, and yelling mixed together.
But in just a moment, all the prisoners were executed and could no longer make any sound.
Xie Chen waved his hand, and soldiers came forward, put them into sacks, put stones on them, and threw them into the river.
Xiang Qianqian huddled in the crowd, her eyes filled with fear.
When did Xiangying become so cruel and terrible?
After this incident, no one questioned Xiangying's ability anymore.
No matter whether they were prisoners from the Western Zhou Dynasty or soldiers from Nanyue, they dared not question her anymore.
Xiangying's mood gradually calmed down.
Those who had contracted the plague on the ship also began to recover one after another.
Xiangying moved back from Jie Chen's room.
Perhaps Sanxiao had already heard Taoxue talk about Scarface, and he never asked where Scarface had gone.
But there was one time when a new captain was promoted and put on the helmet that originally belonged to Scarface.
The three kids saw it, and were distracted for a moment. They stared for a while before realizing it was someone else.
The promoted captain was nicknamed the Sour Scholar.
It was because before he joined the army, he was a scholar, but during the war, his family was killed by a group of bandits.
The sour scholar felt that he was powerless and could not take revenge, so he burned all his books in anger and immediately joined the army.
As soon as he was promoted, he rushed to meet Xiangying, calling her "sister-in-law" all the time, being particularly polite and shy.
"The captain of Sister-in-law's team is still Skinny Monkey, but I'm right next door. If Sister-in-law has any instructions, just call me. I'll have to rely on Sister-in-law for advice in the future!"
At that time, Xiangying was sitting at the bow of the boat, washing her cooking pot.
Hearing this, he looked up and glanced at him.
In the sunshine, the sour scholar's gentle smiling face looks like a red apple.
Xiangying lowered his head: "Don't be so polite, as long as you are worthy of the helmet on your head and don't let it embarrass you."
The sour scholar immediately stood at attention: "I promise not to insult Scar Master's reputation!"
Xiangying picked up the clean vegetable pot and was about to leave when she thought of something.
"Don't always call me sister-in-law. Just call me Xiangying like them."
After saying that, she walked away with her head held high.
Xie Chen happened to be walking nearby, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but pause.
As soon as the sour scholar looked up and saw him, he immediately bowed and said, "Greetings to the military supervisor."
Jie Chen glanced at Xiangying's back as he walked away.
His eyes were dark and he stepped forward to remind her: "This is the exile team, she is an exiled prisoner, what should you call her?"
The sour scholar was stunned.
"Call the criminal Xiangying."
"She has made great contributions to the plague. She should be respected. From now on, she will be called the eldest princess."
Now the sour scholar was completely dumbfounded.
He is from Nanyue. How could Jie Jianjun ask him to call someone Princess?
Xie Chen raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you have any doubts?"
"No! I dare not!" The sour scholar quickly responded, "I will remember it."
Xie Chen then nodded and left.
During these two days, everyone on the ship was respectful to Xiangying, and even General Ke was willing to discuss things with her.
Nightfall.
Xiangying carried half a bucket of prepared fish soup and found Jie Chen and General Ke.
The two of them were having dinner in the dining room with the other soldiers.
The aroma of Xiangying’s fish soup wafted in the air, and the steamed buns in the soldiers’ hands suddenly lost their fragrance!
"Come, scholar, help me share the fish soup with everyone."
The sour scholar immediately rushed forward, even forgetting to look at the expressions of Jie Chen and General Ke.
Xiangying walked over to sit beside Jie Chen and the others, her red lips curled into a smile: "Where is the military supervisor?"
"He was on duty last night and is catching up on his sleep now. Do you have anything to do?" Jie Chen asked.
Xiangying folded his hands, rested them on his chin, and smiled with his phoenix eyes narrowed.
"I want to discuss something with you."
Supervisor Ke paused while holding the porridge: "What do you want to do?"
Why did he feel that Xiangying's smile gave him a chill on his back?
Xie Chen was quite calm, drinking his refreshing tea, and said in a cold voice: "If you want us to accompany you to do something out of line, then don't say a word."
"This is a simple matter, and it won't be difficult for you two," Xiangying crossed his arms, "I want the soldiers and prisoners to be treated the same and eat the same food every day."
General Ke put the bowl in his hand on the table with a bang, attracting the attention of the surrounding soldiers.
"You still say it's not difficult? You're trying to kill both of us!" Supervisor Ke was so angry that he spit out his food. He turned around and saw that everyone was looking at him. He immediately scolded, "What are you looking at? Go eat!"
Xiangying looked at Jie Chen's expression and saw that he didn't look particularly resistant.
So she continued, "Western Zhou has already fallen. We will soon reach the border of Nanyue after passing Luzhou. Are you still worried about us exiled prisoners rebelling?"
"As long as they are well fed, they won't cause any trouble."
As Xiangying spoke, he dipped his slender fingertips into the tea and settled the accounts on the table.
"I've calculated it. Assuming each person eats one bowl of rice a day, our soldiers and exiled prisoners now add up to more than 160 people."
"Then it's one stone of rice per month. You have plenty of food and it won't be difficult to provide it. You can also arrange these prisoners to do things within your ability."
Supervisor Ke put on a sour face and said, "I disagree. If the deputy general hears this, he will definitely scold us. We are not an exile team, but rather a guard team accompanying you, the eldest princess, on a trip!"
Xiangying smiled.
That's about right. She just wants to create a team that will obey her rule.
Xiangying put the benefits in front of them.
"I won't let them enjoy it for nothing. Didn't the military doctor run away? I know a little about pharmacology. If anyone in the team gets sick in the future, I can treat them."
"In addition, I also go hunting. If there is meat, I will also give it to everyone to whet their appetite like today."
General Ke couldn't say no, but his reason told him that it was definitely wrong to do so.
So he looked at Jie Chen who had remained silent: "Say something! If this doesn't work, scold her."
Unexpectedly, Xie Chen put down the teacup and said calmly: "I think there is room for negotiation on this matter."
