At this moment, Liu Dingguo still thought that Cui Wenhong was with Chu Mobai. After all, anyone who could stand next to Prince Ye must be his man. Just as he was about to cast an angry look, Cui Wenhong also spoke.
"Prince Ye, it seems that you like fighting very much? If a war breaks out on the border, wouldn't the Ministry of Revenue have to allocate hundreds of thousands of taels of silver this time?"
"Such a large amount of silver is really a loss to the family and the country. Don't you feel guilty about this, Lord Ye?"
At this moment, Cui Wenlong was talking to everyone, looking like the fearless person in a TV drama, which made Qian Ruoyu, who was standing by, feel very excited.
Qian Ruoyu also knew that it seemed that she had found the right person this time, and Cui Wenhong’s role was not small.
After hearing what Cui Wenhong said, Chu Mobai snorted coldly with disdain.
"Master Cui, fighting is not what I want! I am too lazy to fight, and I don't want my soldiers to get hurt for no reason. Master Cui, please respect the soldiers who fight for their country. They don't want to fight either!"
The two of them then looked at each other, seemingly disliking each other.
Liu Dingguo looked at the two people arguing with each other and then he dispelled his doubts, confirming that Chu Mobai and Cui Wenhong did not join forces to cause trouble.
After getting what he wanted, Chu Mobai felt relieved. He clasped his fists slightly and walked back to the hall.
At this point, the only dispute left was between Cui Wenhong and Liu Dingguo.
At this time, Liu Dingguo seemed to have just come up with an idea and hurriedly spoke to Cui Wenhong.
"By the way, I was just discussing the border war with other adults in the backyard. If you don't believe me, just ask the other adults."
This was an idea that came to his mind hastily, and at this moment he was not afraid that Cui Wenhong would be able to see through it.
After hearing what he said, Cui Wenlong naturally knew that this was a reason he made up, but it was indeed a plausible reason.
Cui Wenhong snorted coldly.
"Is this your explanation? But it doesn't matter. I didn't expect you to use the prince to excuse yourself. By the way, do the officials in your Ministry of War also like to go to war?"
He deliberately used Chu Mobai to block him in order to distance himself from Chu Mobai, and at the same time to indicate that he might not write the memorial today.
After hearing this, Liu Dingguo actually said something flattering.
“This… Lord Cui, it’s not just me who has the final say on whether the soldiers should fight or not, but I seem to have heard that our Ministry of War is not very willing to deploy soldiers.”
"After all, our Ministry of War is not only responsible for the dispatch of military forces to various places, but also for the overall planning of money and food for various places, and for the military personnel in various places. Once a war breaks out, our Ministry of War will also be busy!"
After hearing this, Cui Wenhong just said calmly.
"So that's how it is. I thought you guys in the Ministry of War were also planning to actively wage war! In that case, let's put today's incident aside for now. I've finished my inspection at the Ministry of War today. My findings aren't that big. I'm going to go to the Ministry of Rites next."
Cui Wenhong finally figured it out.
Especially after Chu Mobai got the transfer order and the military token, he became more clear in his mind that this time he was only here to assist Qian Ruoyu.
Therefore, there is no need to be so serious and continue to fight with these people from the Ministry of War.
Qian Ruoyu's goal has been achieved, and Cui Wenhong can also escape unscathed, and it can even be regarded as helping Qian Ruoyu.
After hearing what Cui Wenlong said, everyone in the Ministry of War breathed a sigh of relief, and even Liu Dingguo couldn't help but pat his chest.
He thought that Cui Wenhong's memorial had been finalized today, but he did not expect that there would be a sudden turn of events and he would be let off so easily.
But he had no intention of giving Cui Wenhong a good look. He just nodded to Cui Wenhong calmly and watched Cui Wenhong leave the Ministry of War.
However, Qian Ruoyu and Chu Mobai had already left the Ministry of War.
After Cui Wenhong left the Ministry of War, he did not see any trace of Qian Ruoyu and Chu Mobai. He became more certain that his guess was correct. This time he really just came to help Qian Ruoyu with assists, and the purpose was to get Chu Mobai's transfer order.
Although he did not really approve of Prince Chu Mobai going to war, he was also somewhat clear that this war had to be fought.
Chu Mobai has already come to ask for the transfer order, which shows that this matter is not that simple.
Although he was feeling a little sad, the thought of helping Qian Ruoyu today made Cui Wenhong feel happy. He actually took a step forward and walked towards the Ministry of Rites.
He went to the Ministry of Rites not to cause trouble there, but simply to take that road back to his own Censorate, which was just a shortcut.
Qian Ruoyu and Chu Mobai were walking on the way to the city gate.
Although Yan'er followed from a distance this time, she did not come over immediately, because she knew that it was rare for Qian Ruoyu and Chu Mobai to have such a quiet moment together.
Besides, it was rare for the two of them to get along so peacefully. If it were in the past, they would definitely have quarreled.
This time, Chu Mobai let Qian Ruoyu follow him, which was rare. Although Qian Ruoyu was by his side, he did not have any other feelings, and he did not hate Qian Ruoyu at all.
This time Chu Mobai was extremely anxious. If he couldn't apply for the transfer order and military token today, he would not be able to send the people from the post station to the three border towns as quickly as possible.
There is only one horse left at the post station near the capital. If these things cannot be sent today, we can only wait until tomorrow, which may take more than just one night.
Military danger cannot be delayed, as the difference between heaven and earth may occur in a moment.
Therefore, Qian Ruoyu can be said to have helped him a lot this time.
Qian Ruoyu was even more excited at this time.
After all, it was she who helped Chu Mobai, allowing Chu Mobai to successfully obtain the transfer order and military token.
Especially when she saw Liu Dingguo's expression, she knew very well in her heart that if she hadn't asked Cui Wenhong for help today, it would be simply a fantasy to get the transfer order and military token.
Liu Dingguo was obviously in the Ministry of War, but he had no intention of coming out to meet his own prince!
At this time, Qian Ruoyu secretly glanced at Chu Mobai out of the corner of her eye, wanting to know what Chu Mobai's expression was at the moment.
However, Chu Mobai's expression at this moment was extremely serious. Although Qian Ruoyu followed him, he still did not have any extra expression.
Qian Ruoyu curled her lips helplessly and could only continue to follow Chu Mobai forward. The city gate was already in front of them.
As the sun set, the shadows of Qian Ruoyu and Chu Mobai became very long, and the two of them seemed to be walking very slowly.
