"people?"
"Who are you going to get, Father?"
Ning Fan felt a bad feeling in his heart. The treasure house of money and food was now hidden by him. In his own territory, Emperor Yu would never be able to touch it. But he didn't expect that the Dog Emperor would actually start a fight with someone. idea?
"Well..." Emperor Yu pondered for a moment, as if he was thinking, and after a long time he said softly: "The Jia Xu beside you is quite good, I am going to take him with me to serve as a staff member!"
"There is also Chen Gong, this person is so talented, but now I have no one around me who can use him."
"By the way, there are also Ran Min and Qingzhi. These two are also generals. I don't have any experts to protect me. Jing Li is already old..."
Jing Li: "???"
Before Emperor Yu finished speaking, Ning Fan's face had already turned half dark. After hearing this, he actually understood that Emperor Yu was not planning to ask for people from him, he was clearly just trying to hollow out his team!
"I can't give it to you. I can't give it to anyone."
"Father, Jia Xu is dressed in white, Chen Gong is a young man, Ran Min is just a martial artist, and Chen Qingzhi is even half-disabled, how can he fall into the eyes of my father!"
"Father, please stop teasing your son."
However, Emperor Yu's expression remained unmoved, and he sighed sadly: "Second brother, it's been extremely difficult for the court this year. The Mobei tiger is watching with eager eyes, traitors are everywhere in the court, and local disasters are happening one after another."
"The national treasury has long been unable to make ends meet, and your mother-in-law is even more frugal in food and clothing."
"Father!"
Ning Fan understood Emperor Yu's intention instantly and cursed in his heart for being shameless, but there was a look of helplessness on his face.
The Dog Emperor actually used people to threaten him. He could hide gold, silver and food, but he couldn't hide people!
"Second brother, don't look at me like that. Now that you are rich and powerful, my family is poor. It is the son's duty to show his filial piety to me."
"Although I haven't found your treasury yet, I have seen with my own eyes the mountains of gold bars in your treasury!"
"snort!"
"Besides, you launched an army without authorization and deceived the emperor. I have never held you accountable!"
Speaking of this, Emperor Yu's face was also extremely ugly. It was indeed shameful for me to reach out to his son, but the boxes of gold bars were enough to make him put down the dignity of the emperor. Not to mention lowering his face, even if he called him daddy so what?
As for the emperor's dignity, how much is it worth?
"Since the father has said this, I am willing to offer 300,000 taels of silver, 10,000 taels of gold, and 300,000 dan of food to express my feelings to the father!"
"Three hundred thousand taels!!"
Emperor Yu's breathing began to become rapid. He originally thought that it would be good to ask for one hundred thousand taels of silver. After all, although there was a lot of gold and silver in the treasury, it was not as rich as the enemy's country...
But I didn't expect that my son would be so generous, 300,000 taels of silver, 10,000 taels of gold, and 300,000 stones of food and grass, tsk tsk!
My own internal funds are not so rich!
"His Majesty!"
There was a sound of footsteps, and Jing Li was seen striding up to Emperor Yu. He glanced at Ning Fan with a strange expression and whispered in his ear.
"What!"
After hearing Jing Li's words, Emperor Yu's excited expression immediately turned back. Instead, he looked at Ning Fan with an unkind look and said softly: "Second brother, follow me out for a walk!"
"Father, what happened?"
"It's nothing, I want to go out and get some air."
Emperor Yu didn't even explain, and walked out of the hall with long strides.
Ning Fan once again felt a bad feeling in his heart, especially the look Jing Li gave him at the end, which seemed to be a little guilty, a little apologetic, and meant to remind him?
He wasn't sure either.
Jing Li led Emperor Yu all the way out of the palace. After walking on the street for a while, they turned into an alley. Jia Xu and others followed Ning Fan after hearing the news and said softly: "My lord, you have been exposed."
Before Ning Fan could ask questions, he saw Emperor Yu and Jing Li turning into one of the houses. After everyone followed them in, they were stunned by the scene in front of them. Figures were walking out of the cellar carrying large boxes.
The box was opened, revealing strips of golden items, and Ning Fan suddenly had black lines all over his head.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Jing Li, yes, you have made great achievements this time."
"Second brother, what else do you have to say?"
Emperor Yu looked at Ning Fan with a proud look on his face. Concubine Xian, Zhao Huaiyuan and others beside him also sighed leisurely. Have they been discovered after all?
Jia Xu looked at Ning Fan and shook his head slightly. Ning Fan was also stunned for a moment. He stepped forward and took out a gold bar from the box. When he saw a line of small characters with the number [Ling 026], he breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still a hint of pain on his face. .
"Your Majesty, we have made a clear count. There are more than 70,000 taels of gold and 700,000 dan of grain!"
"Where's the silver?"
"There is no silver, only gold bars and grain!"
"Um?"
Emperor Yu always felt that something was wrong, but he still laughed and said: "Hahahaha, second brother, I see your filial piety. These golds will be used as Huainan's support for the imperial court."
"Father..."
"What, you don't want to?"
Seeing the threat in Emperor Yu's eyes, Ning Fan smiled bitterly and shook his head, but his heart was full of contempt, and he even had a mocking smile on his lips.
It's just a small library that starts with the word "Ling". If you pick it up, you'll pick it up.
His majesty, the majesty of the emperor, looks like a bandit. What is the pattern?
It’s really worthless!
The proud look on Emperor Yu's face could not be concealed, and the depression in his heart was instantly swept away. Looking at the boxes of gold, the corner of his mouth almost turned into a smile.
Concubine Xian noticed that Ning Fan had just picked up a gold bar and looked at it. She also stepped forward and looked sideways. When she saw the small number on the gold bar, she also showed a thoughtful look.
But it didn't stop Emperor Yu's blatant blackmail.
"Jing Li, please send a message to Jiangnan quickly and send two thousand soldiers over."
"promise!"
"Hey, I'm a little tired. Let's go back and lie down."
Watching Emperor Yu swaggering away, Ning Fan also showed a soothing smile: "Fortunately, it is just a small library with a font name starting with Ling. If it were a large library with a font name starting with [Huai], I am afraid that I will really bleed."
"Jia Xu, what's going on?"
Although he didn't care about the small secret treasury, he was still very unhappy to be taken advantage of by Emperor Yu for no reason.
"My lord, this time it was an accident. I heard from the person guarding the secret treasury that Commander Jing went into the alley to urinate. Our people reacted too violently, which attracted Commander Jing's attention, and finally exposed the treasury!"
"That's it..."
Ning Fan also breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Emperor Yu had a trump card that he didn't know about, but luckily it was just a mistake.
No matter what the reason is, this man must be sent back as soon as possible. If he continues to struggle, something unexpected may happen.
"Wen He, send a message to the capital to make some trouble."
