Yan Qinghe remained completely calm.
A gentle breeze rustled his clothes.
Standing on this disaster-stricken hillside, I felt a wild sense of freedom.
"I am on patrol."
Patrol?
How can patrols travel from the Northwest to the South?
He only brought his trusted confidants?
Who are you kidding?
Cui Yixiang made it clear that he didn't believe it.
Yan Qinghe added, "His Majesty was aware of this."
Murong Yue nodded silently to the side.
All right.
It is likely that Qinghe would not dare to deceive him with the Emperor's decree.
Since His Majesty also knows, and if it weren't for the mudslide, Yan Qinghe probably wouldn't have shown up.
It seems that the matter has nothing to do with him.
Cui Yixiang naturally changed the subject.
"General Yan, if it's convenient, could you tell me how you entered the city?"
He could confirm that he had not received any notification that Yan Qinghe had entered the city.
Unless the other party used a fake document.
Unexpectedly, Yan Qinghe raised the corners of his mouth and said, "When I arrived, a large number of people from Yun Kingdom were entering the country."
"I'm coming in."
Well...
At that time, people from Yun Kingdom either had Yun Kingdom identity documents or had friends or family members from Qing Kingdom as guarantors when entering the country.
If you don't have either.
Then just speak a few words of Yunguo dialect on the spot to prove your identity and you can come in.
After figuring out the key point, Cui Yixiang praised him with a smile.
"I didn't expect General Yan to know the language of Yun Kingdom."
Yan Qinghe smiled and greeted him.
Nothing serious. A great general, a pillar of the nation, quietly came to his territory. If you don't know about it, just let it go.
Now that I know, I should at least come and meet them.
Once you've seen it, everything will be fine.
Just as he was about to leave, Yan Qinghe called him back, "Lord Cui, do you have any latest news from Yue?"
Cui Yixiang's mind was buzzing.
He said!
He said!
What is this general doing here?
So it turns out they were after the Yue Kingdom!
General, if you keep talking about this, I'm not leaving!
Cui Yixiang waved his hand, and his attendants brought over a small tea table and tea set.
Murong Yue simply untied the reins and let Lieyan and Yunteng play on their own.
She sat on a small stool, listening intently.
"The Yun Kingdom may look glamorous on the surface, but it's actually a hotbed of internal strife."
"As far as I know, after the death of the Second Prince Xiao Yuanche, the only prince the old emperor can rely on is the Crown Prince."
"The Crown Prince sent three stunningly beautiful women to the old emperor a few days ago."
"I've also heard that the Third Princess, Xiao Yuanshuang, is eager to make a move."
Cui Yixiang was very familiar with the situation in the Yue Kingdom.
"The Yue Kingdom today is like a sieve."
Yan Qinghe raised his teacup, "This is all thanks to Cui Dada's Emerald Record, Your Excellency has a brilliant strategy."
"No, no."
Cui Yixiang quickly offered a modest response, then sighed.
"However, it is the ordinary people who are crying."
"With the court in turmoil and everyone busy choosing sides, even the few officials who actually get things done are too busy to take care of themselves."
"The group of Yun people sent there specifically targeted wealthy people."
"The rich, when they suffer, dare not offend the crazy people of Yun Kingdom."
"The only way to make up for it is by taking it from our own people."
"The lives of ordinary people are unbearably miserable."
"well..."
Murong Yue is now a well-informed little zombie.
I can roughly understand this model of rule.
The position of a leader is passed down through bloodline.
It doesn't matter if you're not outstanding, as long as you're not stupid, there are plenty of other ministers.
It's okay to be stupid, as long as you don't make any big mistakes.
But if you don't take the people in the base seriously, then the base is doomed.
"There are several wealthy and powerful families in the Yue Kingdom. A few days ago, they sent someone to ask me about them."
"Could you bring your whole family to Qingguo?"
"I wrote a memorial to His Majesty, but have not yet received a reply."
Murong Yue stopped what she was doing and listened even more attentively.
Yan Qinghe glanced at her, knowing she wanted to know more, so he continued to ask Cui Yixiang.
"What does Lord Cui think?"
Cui Yixiang looked conflicted. "If we don't accept them, the Yue people are good at business, and those families are all very wealthy."
"We can't come to Qing Kingdom for nothing; we have to make them bleed."
"Can..."
"I don't really want these people."
"Why is that?" Yan Qinghe couldn't understand what these civil officials were thinking.
“If they pay silver, they will surely make it back from the people after they come to Qing Kingdom.”
"It is the ordinary people who suffer."
"Moreover, once the situation in Yue Kingdom stabilizes, I might take the money I earned in Qing Kingdom back with me."
Cui Yixiang looked up towards the direction of the capital.
"However, I have written everything clearly in my memorial to His Majesty."
"Your Majesty is a man of great wisdom and foresight; surely you have a better plan."
Murong Yue bit her teacup, her little head starting to work.
She didn't even notice when Cui Yixiang left.
Yan Qinghe didn't disturb her and just quietly stayed by her side.
Not far away, Flame and Cloud Soar drooped their heads and gnawed at the ground.
Wu Yi was deeply moved by what he saw.
Our great general has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel...
Why do I feel like crying?
The imperial guards who followed him glared at him.
What a loser!
We're not crying, so why are you crying?!
Alright, Wu Yi took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to the imperial guard next to him.
"Come on, let's cry together."
Imperial Guards: ...
Murong Yue thought Cui Yixiang was right.
She needs to sort things out.
Do you want the silver from the Yue Kingdom?
want to.
But do you want those people to come to Qing Kingdom?
