Chapter 498 Justified



When Chu Mobai suddenly heard Qian Ruoyu say this, he was a little stunned.

"What do you mean by the imperial court's support? We won many things by ourselves."

"The only thing the emperor gave us was 500,000 vehicles. Other than that, even the ironware and weapons were made by the blacksmiths I recruited in the countryside."

"Do you really think the court can give me much?"

Her words left Chu Mobai speechless for a moment.

But Qian Ruoyu still had a lot to say to Chu Mobai.

I'm afraid that if I tell Chu Mobai all these words, Chu Mobai will be extremely shocked.

After all, there are some things Qian Ruoyu just wants to hide from him.

One reason is because of this, she said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, now is not the time to talk about this. Just take a good look at my camp."

Hearing her say this, Chu Mobai immediately nodded.

The two of them strolled in the camp.

Qian Ruoyu was not worried at all that anyone would tell this matter.

After all, all the consumer groups within the entire East City Camp were created by themselves, and no one was planted by any force.

That's why she dared to take Chu Mobai for such a leisurely walk in the camp.

Chu Mobai seemed to have endless doubts in his heart. After taking a few steps, he thought about it and immediately spoke to her.

"If that's the case, how did you get the ironware from the countryside... These are all money. If there really is such a good way, I would have used it long ago..."

Qian Ruoyu already had the answers to these questions in his mind.

Therefore, the moment Chu Mobai asked the question, she answered immediately.

"In fact, this matter is very simple, and it is also because of the blessing of the prince."

"Didn't I ask you to help the nearby villagers before? So when the villagers heard that the princess wanted to build an army to suppress bandits, they all rushed to sign up, and almost every household was willing to take out iron tools to help me."

"In addition, I also collected some blacksmiths in the countryside. The weapons in my soldiers' hands also came from these blacksmiths."

When Chu Mobai heard this, he casually took out a knife from the pile of weapons on the roadside.

"Yes, the workmanship is rough, and it does have a rustic feel."

Looking at the weapon in his hand, Chu Mobai immediately believed what Qian Ruoyu said.

After all, these weapons are completely different from those issued by the imperial court. Not only are they rough, but even the lines are crooked.

But this does not affect the lethality of the weapon.

After the two of them took a quick look around, they returned to the central military camp.

But in the central army camp, Chu Mobai saw again that everything in her camp was new, and she even seemed very confident.

Even the map of the area near the capital city can be found on her desk. This map is many times more detailed than Chu Mobai's.

Even some villages that have not been marked yet are marked.

After seeing this, Chu Mobai actually felt a little more envious.

"Princess...how about giving me a copy of this map?"

After hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu just smiled calmly.

"Your Highness, how long have we been married? Why do you still treat yourself as an outsider? Besides, didn't you hear what I just said?"

"You can take anything you want within this camp at any time. Anything you want can be yours."

After suddenly hearing what she said, Chu Mobai felt even more guilty.

After all, he didn't expect that what Qian Ruoyu said was actually true.

Therefore, he naturally had no intention of touching the map on the table. He just followed her around and then left the military camp together.

As the two were walking back, they saw fireworks being set off in the capital city.

A large number of fireworks suddenly rose into the air, filling the entire sky with a myriad of colors.

The rumbling sound was heard above the capital city, but the sound inside the city was even more noisy.

Even though it was almost midnight, almost everyone in the capital was happy.

It was only because the medicinal materials had arrived and after being distributed, all the people in the capital city drank it.

After the problem was solved, all the people were naturally happy, so they decided to celebrate this festive day all night long.

Chu Mobai finally spoke as the two were on their way back.

"Ayu..."

After suddenly hearing these two words, Qian Ruoyu immediately looked at Chu Mobai.

Chu Mobai then spoke.

"Thank you for your hard work during my absence. If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened in the palace."

She asked knowingly, "Even if I'm not here, there's still Li Zhiyi. Isn't Li Zhiyi your good wife?"

Hearing Qian Ruoyu's sarcastic words, Chu Mobai just smiled calmly, and then took the initiative to hold her hand.

The two walked back to the palace together.

Early the next morning, Qian Ruoyu immediately asked to reduce the amount of silver in the small treasury to five thousand taels of silver.

"My lady, why do you do this?"

Jin Lianhua blinked and looked at her with a confused look.

She smiled faintly and said, "Things are different now. Now that the prince is back, we should still pretend. If the prince finds out that we are so rich, then we are doomed, right?"

"All our previous efforts have been in vain. Let the prince live a frugal life. If he really needs money, we will continue to give it to him."

After hearing this, Jin Lianhua nodded immediately.

"Yes, your majesty, you are right... Otherwise, if the war breaks out again and the prince takes all the silver again, we will be left with nothing."

Qian Ruoyu just smiled when she heard this.

After all, even if there was one million silver coins in the small treasury, it was only less than one-tenth of hers, so having the money taken away was just a small matter.

She just didn't want the prince to know that she was rich.

But apart from this incident, Qian Ruoyu discovered that she was hiding more and more things from the prince.

Whether it was Liu Dehai or Luo Shanhai, or the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue, they all had invisibly established inextricable ties with her.

Thinking of this place, let her imagine it in her heart.

At this moment, Li Zhiyi appeared at the gate of the yard and asked Qian Ruoyu for money.

"Hey, sister, it's time to give money again. I have nothing again."

Li Zhiyi spoke with a righteous tone, as if she had to give the money.
