Old Madam Xiao looked at General Xiao who ran away in a panic, and the corners of her mouth twitched twice.
"You two brothers, go do what you need to do. Urge the Ministry of Revenue to distribute the winter clothes to the soldiers as soon as possible."
These days, the divine army was still wearing the camouflage uniforms that Ranran had made. They were just two thin pieces, and the soldiers were already freezing to death.
The weather is getting colder day by day, so we have to give everyone a set to keep out the cold winter.
Speaking of this, Xiao Yunyou frowned immediately.
"The Ministry of Revenue really doesn't have any money. It will take another ten days or so for the cotton from the south to be delivered."
"Also, it's hard to say how much cotton can be transferred from the south."
"After all, with the new emperor ascending the throne, the officials in the south are still on the sidelines and don't dare to pay all the taxes."
Xiao Yunchao's attention was also attracted by Xiao Yunyou's words.
"The Heavenly God Army was single-handedly supported by my fourth brother's wife. When my fourth brother's wife was around, the Heavenly God Army had enough food and warm clothes."
"We can't leave our fourth brother's wife and the Heavenly God Army without clothes and food."
"How about this." Xiao Yunchao took a deep breath, "I will lead a hundred thousand Heavenly God Army to the south."
"Some corrupt officials won't release their eagles until they see the rabbit. We must let them see the strength of the Heavenly God Army."
Xiao Yunyou thought for a moment and slowly shook his head.
"No."
"You forgot that the 200,000 troops Geng Wu brought from the south haven't returned yet."
"We have to arrange for those soldiers to return to the south in the next few days. This will also relieve some of the pressure on the Ministry of Revenue."
Xiao Yunchao, "Then I will follow the 200,000-strong army to the south."
When talking about business, everyone at the table became very serious.
It is impossible for them to abandon the foundation laid by their fourth brother's wife just to follow her.
They wanted to follow the fourth brother's wife immediately, but Xiao Yunzhan didn't have any useful people under his command. If they all left, the fourth brother would be overworked.
Even for the sake of Fourth Brother's wife's future sexual happiness, they couldn't let Xiao Yunzhan do it alone.
Xiao Yunzhan will be exhausted if he goes back. If his fourth brother's wife really doesn't want him, he will be finished. How can they have the nerve to follow his fourth brother's wife then?
"That's possible." Xiao Yunyou thought about it and nodded.
"You should go to the south first to quell the rebellion. With the new emperor ascending the throne, many local forces are ready to make trouble. Don't be lenient when you go there."
"Don't worry, I will show no mercy to those who deliberately cause trouble." Xiao Yunchao curled his lips and sneered, "Killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, those who want to cause trouble will not dare to do it again."
He was anxious to find his fourth brother's wife and join her in attacking the Western Liang Kingdom. He would not let these people waste his time, so of course he had to cut the Gordian knot quickly.
Originally he didn't want to go to the south, after all, the journey was long and it would take a lot of time to go back and forth.
But the eldest brother is not here, the second brother doesn't know martial arts, and forget about dad. I guess dad doesn't want to go to the south either, so he has to go.
Xiao Yunyou looked at Madam Xiao and said, "Mom, you and Wenhong will lead the female soldiers to the west, and Dad and I will lead the soldiers to the east."
"By using these three methods, we can quickly get the soldiers' winter clothes."
Because Zhao Cheng had rebelled in the south, many people became restless. Many bandits even occupied the mountains and proclaimed themselves kings. Therefore, Xiao Yunchao needed to bring more soldiers to quell the rebellion.
Moreover, the southern border has not been very peaceful recently, and a large army is needed to deter people.
Old Madam Xiao was startled. How could this have anything to do with her?
How did Emperor Wu of Liang manage the State of Daliang? The treasury was so empty. No wonder the Xiao family was able to take over the State of Daliang so smoothly.
A hollow country is a hot potato.
"Okay, let's split up."
"Mom." Zheng Yunyun saw that everyone had made arrangements except her, so she hurriedly called out.
"Which part am I responsible for?"
It can't be that everyone has problems and she is the only one who has nothing.
She wanted to go find Ranran secretly, but her man couldn't go now, so she had to find something to do to share the burden so that they could go find Ranran together as soon as possible.
Old Madam Xiao looked at Zheng Yunyun, then turned her head to glance at Xiao Yunyou.
Xiao Yunyou frowned slightly, "Third sister-in-law is responsible for comforting the soldiers in the barracks. With 300,000 Heavenly God Army stationed in the capital, someone from the Xiao family must be there to take charge."
The Tianshen Army only recognizes members of the Xiao family, so it is also important for the third brother's wife to go to the military camp to stabilize the morale of the army.
At this time, Xiao Yunzhan, who had changed into a dragon robe, walked out.
When he was changing his clothes, he heard several people discussing winter clothes. He immediately remembered the large sum of money that Ranran had left for him, and his heart suddenly felt warm.
"Don't worry about the silver. I'll have the Ministry of Revenue deposit the silver into the warehouse and arrange winter clothing for the Tianshen Army."
"As for the rest, let's proceed according to your discussion."
If the whole family goes together, Yongchang Kingdom will soon be back on track. At that time, he will use the excuse of observing the disaster in the northwest to make a secret visit.
By the way, let’s go and see where Ranran has reached in Xiliang Kingdom.
"Where did the money come from?!" Xiao Yunchao blurted out in confusion.
The treasury was emptier than his face, and the silver there was not even as much as any rich family in the capital.
Yesterday he went to the Ministry of Revenue to ask for money and winter clothes, but the Ministry of Revenue had a sad face.
Xiao Yunyou rolled his eyes at Xiao Yunchao.
Where else could this idiot come from? Apart from the God King, he could be my fourth brother's wife.
Xiao Yunzhan glanced at Xiao Yunchao lightly, with a hint of boasting in his tone.
"Ranran left it specially for me."
After saying that, Xiao Yunzhan glanced at his father's vacant seat, turned around and walked out, "Go to court."
Since his father is not around, the powerful pills that Ranran left for his family to drink together cannot be used for the time being.
Ranran said that except for the eldest brother and sister-in-law, the rest of the people should take this powerful pill together.
Since everyone is not here, let’s keep the things that Ranran left behind with him for a few more days.
Xiao Yunchao, "......"
Is it worth showing off to him?
Tsk~
I don’t know who was kneeling down and begging his father to be the emperor just now.
Xiao Yunchao curled his lips, "Do we still need to act separately now?"
Xiao Yunyou was slightly stunned.
"Yes, but let's talk about it after the morning court."
"Now that we have money, let's first arrange winter clothing for the soldiers before we can take action."
Madam Xiao and the others thought about it for a moment and nodded.
This is better. We can't let the soldiers go to various places to quell rebellions while freezing.
At this time, the ministers standing in the Golden Palace looked at the throne with worried eyes, their brows furrowed tightly.
Because yesterday was the emperor and empress's wedding, the morning court session started an hour later than usual.
In the past, the morning court session would be suspended for two or three days when the emperor and empress got married, but the new emperor had many affairs to attend to upon his ascension to the throne, so the morning court session was only postponed for an hour.
The morning court session was supposed to start at 7 o'clock, but it was delayed to 9 o'clock. However, it is already 10 o'clock, and the emperor has not appeared in the Golden Palace.
