Xiaoye didn't care about other people's opinions and went home happily to prepare.

He rushed all the way back to the capital without a break and was exhausted.

I have to go home and have a good sleep first.

At the same time, he also had to tell Xiao Xianbei that he planned to participate in the fight for the throne.

We must let the Fengxiao League do its utmost to protect our own safety.

Zhao Wudi was filled with worry at the moment, and he had given his full support to Ye.

But Ye actually took on the task of disaster relief, and the key point was that the disaster relief funds he requested were less than half of the budget.

How to provide disaster relief without money?

Is it possible that you are paying out of your own pocket to show that you are doing great things with little money?

However, this kind of tricky thing cannot be handled well. Not using the court's money but paying it privately will not only not bring any credit, but will also result in a serious offense.

After all, doing so would be opportunistic and would prevent other officials from providing disaster relief in the future.

All matters concerning the imperial court must be disclosed in full detail, and only the appropriate amount of money should be disclosed.

Paying for the rebellion out of one's own pocket would be opposed by the military officials.

This is equivalent to cutting off all officials' access to disaster relief.

Zhao Wudi couldn't help but persuade him: "It is a trivial matter for Your Highness to come here in person, but the emperor has already approved so much silver, why not agree?

Maybe you haven't seen the disaster situation, but it can be said that it was a vast ocean with starving people everywhere.

Three million taels of silver would only be enough to resettle the disaster victims, and there is no way to build a river embankment.

If things are not done well, it will have the opposite effect.”

Ye patted Zhao Wudi on the shoulder and said with a smile, "We've worked together for quite some time. When have you ever seen me do anything unreliable?"

Zhao Wudi was stunned and said quickly: "Your Highness has been extremely reliable from beginning to end.

The methods used by 䀴 were also admired by Wudi.

But this time it won’t work, we are here to help the disaster victims.

This is no joke!"

"Who would joke about such a big thing? I took this job because I was worried that other officials would be involved in massive corruption.

I spend all my money where it counts, on the people.

You can do more things in the future.

As for the remaining gaps, I will naturally have better ways to solve them.

Things have become so difficult, haven't you seen the crisis of the court?

Yunlu Pavilion suffered such a great loss, they will definitely retaliate against the court next.

The only way is to support the enemy's invasion.

Moreover, Yunlu Pavilion can take advantage of the opportunity and reap the benefits without any effort.

Whether we win or lose, Yunlu Pavilion will be the big winner.

The only solution is to increase the army as soon as possible. Even if Yunlu Pavilion stands on the side of the enemy, we can still win.

To achieve this, there must be sufficient military pay."

When Ye spoke, he deliberately lowered his voice and explained to Zhao Wudi.

Zhao Wudi was even more shocked when he heard this.

He followed Yuye from beginning to end and was very sure that Yuye had definitely not sent anyone to investigate the enemy country's news.

However, from some clues, it can be seen that the enemy countries in the north have united and want to attack Dayuan again.

The news Zhao Wudi received was secretly informed by the emperor.

Although Ye had no information channels, he could make extremely accurate inferences.

This ability to anticipate the enemy's moves is truly shocking.

The horror in my heart could no longer be added.

"Is it possible that Your Highness had anticipated all the situations since we started our journey to Annan?

That's why he took the risk to destroy the Kingdom of Annan and tried his best to plunder Annan's money.

Just to earn enough military funds for the court?

This leader is too scary, right?

Even if I saw it with my own eyes, I still couldn't believe it.

No, but the facts are before us, every step His Highness takes has a profound meaning.

His Highness Xingtu is from the Dayuan Dynasty.

If it's an enemy, we'll be in trouble!"

Zhao Wudi was shocked and felt extremely fortunate.

But there are still many doubts in my heart: "Your Highness is indeed very thoughtful in doing this.

But how can we rescue all the disaster victims without money?

If the river embankment is not strong enough, there is still a possibility of a major breach during the rainy season.

Wouldn’t that mean everything we’ve done is in vain?”

Ye smiled and said, "Just wait and see. Three million taels of silver will be enough to help the victims and build river embankments.

I still say that the river embankment built here can at least guarantee 100% safety.

You need to use your brain more when doing things!"

After saying this, Ye pointed to his head.

Zhao Wudi still refused to believe it and whispered, "Then you can't pay for it privately! If the emperor finds out, he will definitely punish you severely."

"Are you kidding me? It's good enough that the prince didn't take a cent to help the victims.

How could I possibly put money into it?"

Ye suddenly smiled bitterly.

But Zhao Wudi became even more confused after hearing this. Even if he racked his brains, he couldn't figure out how Qiye could make up for the shortfall of millions of taels of silver.

"Your Highness, could you please reveal a few things? What exactly are you planning to do?"

"This matter cannot be disclosed. If it is disclosed, the plan will not work! If you are truly interested, why not ask the Emperor to join me in disaster relief?

You will be able to see it with your own eyes then!

We guarantee that the disaster relief results will satisfy you."

Zhao Wudi was waiting for this sentence.

Even if there is no disaster relief, he will ask the emperor to secretly protect Xiaoye's safety.

No matter how confident Ye is, he must not be careless if he offends Yunlu Pavilion.

"Okay, I'll go find Your Majesty right away and join you.

When the people suffer from disasters and cannot survive, rebellion is most likely to occur.

You must be kept safe."

Zhao Wudi agreed immediately.

He not only has to protect Ye's safety, but also has to keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't make any mistakes.

You must know that the road to seizing land is extremely dangerous, and you will be crushed to pieces if you are not careful.

What's more, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince are eyeing them covetously. They will definitely cause trouble in such a big event.

I'm really worried that Ye can't handle it alone.

The two said goodbye at the palace gate and went home.

The troops were all rewarded, and after receiving the rewards, they were allowed to go home and rest for a few days.

Send all the money back home.

But it's easy to get into trouble with so many soldiers, so they need to be carefully instructed before they go on vacation.

Zhao Wudi still has a lot to do.

Ye ignored those things and got on the carriage to go home leisurely.

He knew that Mr. Xiao must have received a lot of news and was waiting for him at home.

Xiao Cui, on the other hand, was very excited sitting in the carriage.

With a face full of anticipation, he asked, "Your Highness has made great contributions this time. The Emperor will surely reward Your Highness, right?"

"He came here wanting to reward me, but I refused! He even asked for disaster relief work.

We will stay at home for one day and then leave for Namwon the next day."

Xiao Cui was confused and thought she had misheard.

"No way, Your Highness, why would you refuse the reward? Besides, disaster relief is very hard work, aren't there court officials doing it?"

In Xiao Cui's opinion, asking Ye to provide disaster relief is no longer a reward but a punishment.
