Chapter 673 - 670: Chivalry_1
The Crown Prince knew about this matter. All the petitions sent up had been suppressed by the Crown Prince.
Bai Jinzhi had already noticed the Crown Prince’s evasive expression. Pretending not to understand, she said indignantly, "Those soldiers defend the borders for the country. If they can’t even fill their stomachs, how can they fight?! I got angry as soon as I heard about it. I thought you, dearest cousin, would also not tolerate anyone tampering with the soldiers’ rations. So I came especially to ask you for this task. While I’m in Dadu, let me investigate this matter for you!"
Bai Jinzhi patted her chest, "Don’t worry, dearest cousin. I will find out everything clearly! Let my elder sister see that not only she can work for you, but I can too! This way, she can rest and recover without worrying too much!"
The Crown Prince raised his head and asked, "Are you saying that the Princess of Zhen also knows about this?"
"Yes! I told my elder sister as soon as I got back. She said this matter needs a thorough investigation and then informed you. But I didn’t want my sister to be overworked, so I came to you first, volunteering myself. I want my sister to see what I’m capable of!" Bai Jinzhi’s pure and clear eyes looked at the Crown Prince, as innocent as a pool of clear water.
"Commandery Princess Gaoyi, this matter... I know about it!" The Crown Prince had no choice but to be honest with Bai Jinzhi, after all, Bai Jinzhi was still his person. "Moreover, the Princess of Zhen already recommended you to go to the Anping Camp. Prepare yourself to head there next month and help me control the Anping Camp."
"Then... what about the military rations? Won’t it be investigated? What if I go to Anping Camp and encounter rations full of sand? Dearest cousin, I think this matter needs a thorough investigation!" Bai Jinzhi argued righteously.
The Crown Prince was still patient with Bai Jinzhi and smiled, "Don’t worry about the military rations. I will make sure you won’t eat rations with sand."
