If the imperial court is short of money, she will provide it.
She can afford it.
The audience was silent and shocked.
Such an order, once issued, would determine the life or death of countless people; just hearing it made their hearts tremble.
Xiao Zhixing remained calm and continued to issue orders, "Send messages to the Beizhou Merchant Guild, Ning's Merchant Guild, Beizhou Medical Hall, the Canal Gang, and the Navy, and use all available transportation channels to gather various supplies to aid Huzhou, especially medical personnel, disinfectants, and food. These must be delivered as soon as possible, at any cost."
"Further order: Huo Baijun and Xiong Chumo, you two must return to your camp immediately to guard the border and prevent enemy forces from causing trouble. Also, please tell Generals Xue and Feng that during this turbulent time, we hope they will stand with our Xiao family army to protect the country."
"Send a message to the northern regions: all troops are on high alert, activating Level II combat readiness. Any enemy that dares to invade, kill them!"
"Finally, publish an article in the Dasheng Daily to tell the people of Huzhou that I, the King, am stationed here and will overcome this difficult time with them! I will not leave until the flood recedes, so please, elders of Huzhou, obey the government's orders, preserve your lives, and wait for tomorrow!"
She made Li Wenxiu write down her words without missing a single one: "Furthermore, give this king a stern warning to officials in all regions: anyone who dares to take advantage of the situation to act recklessly, disobey orders, disregard human life, or conceal the truth, will be executed. If the situation escalates, their entire family will be exterminated!"
"Everyone knows my temper. If you can't handle things well, you can tell me in advance, and I won't blame you. But if you dare to falsify or cover things up, causing even greater trouble, I will not be polite."
Everyone was shocked, sensing her murderous intent.
