Ye Xinran thought about it.
When General Scar arrived, I asked him about the situation over there.
She had learned from the sword book that the general's name was Bai Kaixuan. He was a famous warrior, but he had a bad temper and didn't listen to anyone. Even when the prince talked to him, he would just go along with him.
At this time, Bai Kaixuan was also suspicious. Why did the princess look for him? He didn't delay too much and soon came to the palace.
He also had a purpose. He thought that he would endure the grievance today and cry about being poor, hoping that the princess, as a woman, would be a little soft-hearted and see if he could get some food and fodder from the palace to add some rations to his soldiers.
After Bai Kaixuan went to the front hall to wait, Ye Xinran put down the things at hand and went to the front hall as well.
After the two guests and hosts were seated, Ye Xinran had someone serve tea to Bai Kaixuan.
"General Bai, you're here pretty fast!" Ye Xinran said with a smile. She was still wearing men's clothes.
Bai Kaixuan said awkwardly, "I have no choice. The military camp is almost broke, so I came to the palace to beg for money!"
Ye Xinran raised her eyebrows, smiled, and spoke directly without beating around the bush.
"General Bai is here, and I just happened to want to give you some military pay and food! When you have time, send someone to pick it up!"
The reason I say this is because I heard from the sword book that soldiers are also in a competitive relationship with each other. They want to compete with each other in everything. For food and military pay, it all depends on who can cry poor. Whoever asks more will have a better life. Don't ask if there is a shortage. If you ask, then there will be a shortage most of the time! It is better to just set a reasonable number and give it directly.
Ye Xinran felt that what Jian Shu said made sense. So, he took out a certain amount of military pay and food and placed them in the backyard, letting them come and get them.
Bai Kaixuan was startled for a moment, then smiled brightly, "That's great! We are free anytime! We can go now!"
It's already mid-afternoon and getting dark. It's really urgent.
Ye Xinran was speechless, knowing that General Bai was probably afraid that she would go back on her word, so he promised to give her the money, but then he didn't. She felt helpless and amused.
"Okay, send someone now and follow me to get it!" Ye Xinran smiled and said, "Do you have enough people now?"
General Bai thought that there were probably only a few carts of food and not much military pay, and he now had more than 40 people with him, so it would definitely be enough.
Seeing that he had no problem, Ye Xinran led them to the empty yard at the back of the mansion.
"Everything in this yard is prepared for you. Move it out. You can go directly through the back door later. It's closer."
Bai Kaixuan nodded and led his men to push open the gate. When people saw what was inside, they all gasped.
Looking at the yard full of food and fodder and hundreds of boxes containing silver.
Bai Kaixuan and the soldiers who followed him had fiery eyes and wished they could just put the thing in their arms and run away.
But the princess is still there after all, so they have to remain calm and not be petty, making people think they are country bumpkins who have never seen the world.
"Princess, are you sure this is for us?" a soldier couldn't help but ask, his eyes full of heat and excitement.
Bai Kaixuan pricked up his ears and listened, waiting for the final answer.
Ye Xinran nodded. "I'll leave this place to you. I'll be leaving now!"
"Farewell, Princess!" The soldiers saluted, all of them were grateful. There were so many things, enough for them to eat for a year or two. The food was also very good, with chicken, duck, fish, pork and everything else.
Ye Xinran waved his hand and turned away without any hesitation, leaving Bai Kaixuan and dozens of soldiers happily flying away.
Bai Kaixuan was also very happy. He was usually very serious and had a cold and murderous aura, but now he looked a little silly.
"What are you waiting for? Move out! Are you waiting for others to find out and come over to share a piece of the pie?" Bai Kaixuan smiled for the first time and even joked with his soldiers.
"General, we don't have enough people. Are we calling some people over?"
"Then go quickly! If you want me to teach you!" Bai Kaixuan glared.
The soldier ran away happily.
Then dozens of people came, a total of more than a hundred people and dozens of carts.
The soldiers happily carried their food and pay.
It was not until the late night that they finished moving all the things and returned to the barracks. The next morning, everyone drank chicken soup, ate chicken, and ate white flour buns.
Ye Xinran no longer paid attention to Bai Kaixuan and the others. She was leaving to help Gu Yanming collect food and military pay.
She handed over all the affairs of the mansion to the old princess, Gu Yanxin and Jianshu, and she took Qiuhua with her and rode as fast as she could to Yanjing City.
On the way, I helped Gu Yanming bring some of the Golden Armored Army over.
When they arrived at Yuanping Town near Yanjing City, Ye Xinran asked Qiuhua to buy a big house.
Then he asked Qiuhua to personally inform Gu Yanming and ask him to send someone to pick them up. Their supplies arrived soon after.
Ye Xinran walked into the house alone and closed the door. From here, he moved out all the boxes of silver copied from the space, a total of one hundred boxes.
That’s a lot, it should be enough for a while!
Then there was food, all in large sacks, which were also taken out from the space and placed in the yard. Chickens, ducks, geese, and twenty pigs were released from the backyard.
Xu Cheng, the general of the Golden Armor Army, was met in a small town. He also brought his troops and followed Ye Xinran to Yuanping Town.
He was led into the house by Ye Xinran.
When I looked inside the house, I saw that every place was filled with boxes containing military pay. Some of the boxes were open, revealing the neatly stacked silver inside.
There were also large bags of food.
He was as stunned as Bai Kaixuan and the others at that time.
"Princess, this! This is too much! It's enough for us to eat for three to five years!"
Ye Xinran smiled, "You go into battle to kill the enemy and defend our country, how can I let you run out of food and grass, and let your men and horses be exhausted and hungry!"
Ye Xinran spoke with great righteousness, and then led Xu Cheng to the backyard.
Xu Cheng's eyes widened.
The huge backyard should have been a beautiful garden, but now it is full of chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs. It is so full that there is almost no room for them. Some chickens have even roosted on low branches.
Ye Xinran was accustomed to such scenes.
Xu Cheng was drooling when he saw this. He thought that roast duck, roast chicken, and roast fish could be made! How great!
Because the Jinjia Army was suppressed, they could only eat steamed bread and drink water every day. They were skinny and bony.
Ye Xinran took him to a horse farm, which Qiuhua had just bought. There were more than 200 horses in it. Although there were not many, they were all excellent and could be used for breeding.
Xu Cheng danced with excitement.
“These are all prepared for you!
By the way, today, everyone should cook for themselves! Use the chickens, ducks, and grains in the house. Let everyone have a full meal! We will go to Yanjing City tomorrow!" Ye Xinran said.
Xu Cheng was almost moved to tears of gratitude. He quickly called the fireman to clean up the kitchen and make some delicious food for the tens of thousands of people who were in a hurry to travel.
