Thinking of this, the third prince frowned lightly, knelt on the ground piously, and said respectfully, "The national treasury is short, and I have been trying to make up for it.
However, if Duke Chi's money goes into the national treasury, the national treasury should not It’s only right to be in such a shortfall.”
During the "house raid" period, the emperor had long seen what the third prince did.
Some of them were indeed cancerous and should be báchuái.
"Yes, then all the property of Duke Chi will be used as the treasury," the third prince said with a serious face, "then we can find out where the money went."
The emperor sneered, glanced at the third prince's face, and said coldly, "Just because the number in the account book is wrong, you are going to steal Chi Guogong's house."
The third prince knelt on the spot and said nothing.
"Well, I want to ask, is it because the number in Chi Guogong's account book is wrong, or because you think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is close to Chi Guogong?"
The emperor asked calmly, but his words hit the nail on the head.
The third prince's body trembled slightly and he whispered, "My son, I don't dare."
"Chi Guogong's matter," the emperor said calmly, glaring fiercely at the third prince, "I don't allow you to interfere."
The third prince raised his eyes and looked at the emperor in astonishment, his brows knitted together, he looked at the emperor worriedly, and said anxiously, "Father, Mr.
Chi Guogong collaborates with the enemy and treason.
This is a serious crime."
"Collaboration with the enemy and treason, wait until you find evidence of collaboration with the enemy and treason before you come back."
The emperor said, looking at the third prince with a tired face, and waved slightly towards the third prince, "Get out."
The eunuch glanced at the third prince, who hesitated before getting up and going out.
After the third prince left, the eunuch hurriedly supported the emperor and walked outside.
Standing in the garden, looking at the pond full of blooming lotus flowers, the emperor opened his lips slightly and asked, "What do you think of the third prince?"
When the eunuch heard what the emperor said, he hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "Your Majesty, this servant thinks that His Highness the Crown Prince, the Third Prince, and the Seventh Prince are all good."
Among those currently vying for the throne, the third prince has the loudest voice, followed by the seventh prince, and finally the gentle and gentle prince.
He is just a eunuch, he cannot say these things casually.
"Then what do you think of Duke Chi?"
the emperor said, his eyes falling on the eunuch beside him, with a serious look on his face, "Tell the truth."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince expressed special admiration for Duke Chi.
The eunuch thought this and sighed hesitantly, "I don't know anything else.
I only know one thing.
Duke Chi is a patriotic businessman."
As soon as these words were spoken, it meant that he was no longer on the third prince's side.
"When the war started, the servants didn't know it, but they knew that this food was the life of the soldiers.
If there was no food, our country might be in a hard war."
The eunuch said this, frowning slightly, "The treasury is empty and there is little food.
"Your Majesty, it seems that you haven't sent food to the north for a long time."
"I never sent it."
The emperor said tiredly, stretched out his hand to pinch the bridge of his nose, and said with a headache, "Chi Guogong took his own money and bought food and sent it to him.
I looked at the account book and almost sent it.
Nine times out of ten, the little money left is just enough to sustain life in the capital.
I really don’t believe that such a person would collaborate with the enemy and treason.”
"What?"
The eunuch looked at the emperor in astonishment.
No wonder the emperor didn't agree to the third prince just now.
It turned out to be because of this.
"Do good deeds without leaving your name," the emperor said.
"If the general hadn't been tracking those people, he might not have known until now that the person who insisted on delivering food every month was Duke Chi.
If he had attacked Duke Chi, , the army in the north will agree, and the people in the world will agree

.
"
"Chi Guogong sent the food without revealing his name.
He just wanted to serve the country.
If the ministers sent this food, they might even line their own pockets.
How could they give so much food to the northern army?"
said this, the emperor Even more helpless, Chi Guogong has no military power and no influence in the court, but he always thinks about the court.
How could he attack such a loyal minister?
After saying this, the emperor glanced at the eunuch's face and said, "It has not rained for a long time this year.
There is going to be a severe drought today, and the people's lives are going to be miserable again."
"Your Majesty, you are truly a wise king," the eunuch said sincerely.
"It is estimated that there will be more chaos in the north."
The emperor said, frowning slightly, "My prince does not know how to resist foreign enemies properly.
He fights to the death for this position and does not do practical things."
After hearing what the emperor said, the eunuch sighed helplessly.
These things are not something that slaves like them can say.
My body is still strong, and they started to do this.
The sum of so many people is not as good as the Duke of Chi.
That’s called true patriotism” After saying this, the emperor smiled and glanced at the eunuch, "I remember you were the one who announced the decree.
Did you see what Duke Chi looked like?"
Speaking of Chi Guogong, the emperor felt very happy, because every time Chi Hang delivered food, border officials no longer had to worry about food and grass, and the country had a chance to breathe.
Looking at Chi Guogong's account book, there is not much money left at home every month.
"He seems to be a loyal man," the eunuch said seriously, "Chi Guogong is a serious man, but I heard that he is only gentle to Mrs.
Chi and never looks at others."
"He is indeed a good man," the emperor said with emotion.
"A man should be gentle to his own woman, and there is no need to be gentle to other women."
The eunuch just smiled and nodded.
Now that the emperor was very satisfied with Duke Chi, he had better say it smoothly, "Mrs.
Chi is also a bodhisattva-hearted person.
She treats patients.
Those who have money will charge some money, and those who have no money will pay less."
"Take some money.
Some of the poorest people don't want any money.
I guess their pharmacies have suffered a lot of losses."
When the emperor heard that the Chi family was so short-changed, he sighed helplessly, "No matter how much they earned, they gave it all to me, and they did it secretly, because they were afraid that I would know how good they were.
How many people in this world can be so good?"
It’s true that the third son of the people came here to make nonsense without investigating carefully.
If I hadn’t known that Duke Chi donated so much food every month, I might have misunderstood Duke Chi.”
"Yes."
The eunuch said with emotion, "I feel that Duke Chi is not suitable to serve as an official in the court.
He is too upright and an easy sinner.
The emperor is wise and allows him to be a Duke."
When the emperor heard what the eunuch said, he understood something.
Duke Chi Guogong didn't know how to please people, so he was berated by the third prince.
If he could please people, he wouldn't be berated.

He is indeed a loyal and patriotic person, otherwise others would not be jealous.
"Duke Xuanchi."
The emperor didn't have much feeling for this businessman before, he just felt patriotic.
Now he suddenly felt that Duke Chi was so stupid that he didn't even know how to protect himself.
When the emperor looked at the man kneeling below, his brows furrowed slightly.
He was a good-looking man, full of righteousness, and he still had a lot of murderous aura.
"Sit for Duke Chi."
The emperor said calmly, and the eunuch quickly helped Chi Hang prepare the seat.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Chi Hang looked calm and kept lowering his eyes.
"I heard that you used to be an Orion" the emperor asked curiously.
"Yes."
Chi Hang replied respectfully, "My family is poor and we can only make a living by hunting."
The emperor has heard more or less about Chi Hang's past.
No wonder he has a lot of killing spirit in him.
He must have been trained with wild beasts in the mountains and forests.
"The third prince came to tell me that there is something wrong with your account book."
The emperor said and glanced at the eunuch.
The eunuch tacitly gave the account book to Chi Guogong, "Chi Guogong, this is the account book for April."
Chi Hang glanced at it and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, I have spent all this money on the right path."
Without waiting for the emperor to speak, Chi Hang spoke conclusively and said guiltily, "At first, many people said that I would do things to please the emperor in order to get promoted and make a fortune, but I don't think so.
The country is a country for everyone.
We Everyone should protect their homeland.”
"Ever since I had my wife, I have been afraid of death, and I have given up my thoughts of going to the battlefield.
As a patriotic person, even if I cannot go to the battlefield in person, I still want to help the soldiers who are fighting with blood and let them No worries," Chi Hang struggled to hold on to the account book with both hands, frowning slightly, "because of the food delivery, the people below accidentally exposed themselves, and the Huns found out what I had done, and they directly captured me. " "I finally came back.
I am grateful for the emperor's kindness.
I just want to put down the rebellion in the north as soon as possible.
So I thought about doing those things secretly and begged the emperor not to tell anyone."
Chi Hang did not say clearly that he was doing it for the country.
An Ding had to send food to the north even though he had lost all his family property, but the emperor heard it very clearly.
There are really not many such patriotic people, and there are only a few people from the Rendà family who can do such a thing.
"I know your thoughts."
The emperor looked at Chi Hang with some emotion.
This man was really too honest.
If he hadn't been more careful this time and checked the northern account books, he probably wouldn't have known that he had given away so much.
The food passed by, "Get up and sit down."
The voice he spoke to Chi Hang was much gentler.
The emperor saw Chi Hang becoming more and more pleasing to his eyes, thinking to himself that no wonder the prince always praised this man.
This man was an honest and loyal common man.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Chi Hang struggled for a long time before standing up and sitting on the chair.
"Your Majesty, the Third Prince wishes to see you."
A eunuch came in from outside and reported to the Emperor respectfully.
"Let him come in," the emperor said, and saw Chi Hang standing up.
The third prince strode in, looked at Chi Hang standing aside, and glared at Chi Hang coldly.

"Third Prince" Chi Hang bowed respectfully.
The third prince snorted coldly, looked at the emperor with his hands clasped in his fists, "Father, I have brought the evidence of Duke Chi's traitor to the enemy."
Chi Hang stood quietly aside, expressionless.
When the emperor heard what the third prince said, his face became even more ugly.
Didn't he say that he would not let the third prince mention this matter again?
The third prince is really proud of his favor.
Originally, the emperor thought that the third prince was quite good, but now he seems to be uncomfortable.
As a prince, the third prince had a lot of money in his hands, but why didn't he give some to the soldiers at the border?
"The old woman saw Chi Guogong's collaboration with the enemy and treason with her own eyes.
Rong Erchen invited her in."
The third prince said swornly, his eyes glanced at Chi Hang's face, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised
