General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 255 Old Acquaintance (2)

"As long as you help me, can't we protect peace?" The third prince Li Hong said confusedly, not quite understanding what Ji Xiaou and Fang Chen meant.

"He helped you, but they still want to fight and kill. It's impossible for them to surrender to you just because Fang Chen appears." Ji Xiaowu rolled her eyes and said, "It's a waste of manpower and money. The people above you are happy to fight, but the common people are the ones who suffer."

"...Isn't this...definite?" The Third Prince said inexplicably, "They will definitely not surrender, so we will beat them until they surrender. Even though the process will take a long time,...the result will definitely be good, right?"

"But we don't want to go through all this. Who knows how long this internal fight of yours will last? What's more, after you're done fighting, what if the Northern Barbarians take the opportunity to mutiny? Will there be another fierce battle next?" Fang Chen and the others couldn't help but nod their heads at Ji Xiaomu's words. They all knew that once a war started, it would be difficult to end.

"We find the Northern Barbarians difficult to deal with, even for us. We've been fighting them for so many years, don't you know?" Twelve said angrily to the Third Prince, "We finally scared the Northern Barbarians and stopped the war, but you were afraid that my eldest brother would be greedy for power and forced him to retire. Now that we have finally calmed down, you are fighting for the throne again. Just like what my eldest sister-in-law said, you are just being naughty."

"...I was scolded by you." The third prince said helplessly, "There is nothing I can do about it. They are going too far."

"You really can't help me?" The third prince looked at Fang Chen, but Fang Chen ignored him. He turned Ji Xiao's slender hands over and over as if he was concentrating on playing with his favorite toy.

"I'm not leaving town."

"He won't leave town."

Ji Xiaomu and Fang Chen looked at each other and smiled slightly.

"Then I'm dead. Remember to collect my body." The third prince sighed heavily, but he didn't feel scared.

"We can't help you physically since we can't collect the bodies, but we can help you materially!" said Ji Xiaomu with a smile.

"Please give me some advice, sister-in-law." The third prince was stunned, but he didn't expect that there was a ray of hope after a dark period, so he asked immediately.

"What does it take to fight a war?" asked Ji Xiaomu.

"People, food, weapons, and money." The third prince answered quickly. "I have people, I have money, but also food and weapons..."

"If nothing unexpected happens, by the time you really start a war, the food chain in our city should have been established. By then, food will not be a problem. Since you are Fang Chen's old friend, I'll give you a 20% discount. How about that?" Ji Xiaomu smiled very kindly.

"20% off?" The third prince looked at Fang Chen, then at the others, but they avoided his gaze.

Don't look at them, the sister-in-law is the one in charge and they don't know anything.

"Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly! Aren't you rich? Even though you are rich, I will give you a 20% discount. What else do you want?" Mother Ji glared at the third prince.

Fang Chen glanced at the third prince indifferently, with a sharp look in his eyes.

The third prince was timid and lowered his head. "Yes, yes, yes."

Brother, don't glare at me, I'm scared.

"The weapons are the same, 20% off." Fang Chen said it seemingly unintentionally, but intentionally.

"Brother, can you get weapons?" The third prince Li Hong widened his eyes. The most difficult thing now is weapons. You can't let his people fight the enemy empty-handed, right?

If big brother can really get it, then he will definitely be qualified to fight with them!

"It's settled then!" The Third Prince slammed the table immediately, fearing that they would go back on their word.

The loud slapping of the table showed how happy the Third Prince Li Hong was, but while he was happy, some people were unhappy.

"Why are you banging the table? You're disturbing my old lady!"

"..."

Brother, you have changed.
