Chapter 1819 Back to the Western Regions

The wooden box handed over to the old prince, of course, contained the several million silver notes. Zeng Yi seemed to have a smile on his face, but when he handed it in, his heart was bleeding.The old prince took the box and looked at Zeng Yi. Although he already had some guesses in his heart, he was still surprised when he opened it and saw several million silver notes.

"Good good!"

Hearing the hearty laughter of the old prince, everyone looked at the old prince. The old prince laughed a few times, and said to the court officials: "My dear friends, don't worry about money for the time being. Your Excellency has lived up to everyone's expectations. Bring back the money for the three bows and bed crossbows!" Said the old prince handed over the banknotes to the Minister of the Household Department.

Hubu Shangshu these days, because of the money, is almost worried to death. He suddenly heard that there was money, he was very happy. He took it and looked at it, and he was also overjoyed. He counted it on the spot, and soon the bank notes were counted. He nodded to the old prince : "Report to the lord, it's not bad!"

"Haha, okay, okay, Mr. Ni, you really made me look at you differently. I didn't expect to get back so much money in just a few days."

Zeng Yi hurriedly bowed and said, "Serving the imperial court, I will never hesitate to die!"

"My lord, hurry up and die."

Wan Huojing, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, had already seen the Shangshu of the Ministry of Accounts counting the bank notes, and immediately said: "My lord, the training of the new army can finally continue, as long as the money is allocated to our Ministry of War, If you dare to issue a military order, within three months, you will definitely train hundreds of thousands of qualified new troops for the imperial court!"

Wan Huojing is in charge of the Ministry of War and is also a member of the little princess. The recruits trained can basically be regarded as the little princess's cronies. If the money falls into the hands of the Ministry of War, Zeng Yi feels that it is also very good, but There is more than one Ministry of War who has money. As soon as Wan Huojing finished speaking, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry said, "My lord, the hundreds of thousands of troops newly recruited by the imperial court all need weapons and equipment, but with the current situation of the Ministry of Industry In a short period of time, it is impossible to equip these soldiers, but if the money can be handed over to the Ministry of Industry, then I will also dare to issue a military order, and within two months, hundreds of thousands of equipment can be produced!"

Before the old prince could speak, Wan Huojing immediately said: "There are only equipment, but there are no suitable soldiers. This is a little bit upside down. I think that the Ministry of War is the main one."

"Master Wan's words are wrong. If there is not enough equipment, it is tantamount to making fun of the lives of soldiers. Recruits can be trained slowly, but equipment must be equipped with numbers. I feel that I would rather let the equipment wait for someone than let the equipment wait for you." People are waiting to be equipped!"

I thought that everyone should take a rest when the money was taken out, but Zeng Yi didn't expect that it would trigger a more intense debate.Fortunately, there was an old prince who suppressed the crowd. After a while, the old prince said angrily: "It's okay, don't quarrel! How about this, it's more than money, one half is divided into the Second Military Department and the other half!"

The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry each have half of the money. Although this half of the money cannot support the Ministry of War to train 50 new troops, 30 is no problem, and half of the money cannot support the Ministry of Industry to produce enough ordnance. Most of them are fine.

The money brought by Zeng Yi was very timely, and finally temporarily relieved the financial pressure of the imperial court. After discussing for a while about dealing with the Four Kingdoms Alliance, those six ministers left the palace. The old prince Zhuge Shenhou, Zeng Yi and others are left.

The old prince looked at Zeng Yi: "My lord, you have made a great contribution this time. If the money hadn't arrived in time, I don't know how to solve the situation encountered by Liu Bu!"

"That's right, Mr. Ni is so young that he can serve as the commander of the pro-military captain's mansion. It's really amazing!"

"The seniors praised you, but the younger generation is just lucky."

The reason why the old prince stayed behind was because of money. Although the money brought back by Zeng Yi solved part of the problem, the court was still short of money. The old prince just wanted to discuss with everyone if there was any way to solve it.

Everyone is actually not a professional, and no one has a good idea for a while. Zeng Yi looked at everyone and said: "The younger generation has a plan. After the management of the previous emperors, the wealth is hidden in the people. The Central Plains is very rich. The court may as well, The next year's tax revenue will be used as a guarantee, and funds will be raised from the private sector."

"Royal Tianwei, how can he lower his status and benefit from the people? This is not right, not right!" Zeng Yi just finished speaking, the old eunuch said.

Seeing that the attitudes of several people were not very positive, Zeng Yi cursed secretly for being stubborn, and stopped talking.

"Would you like to release a batch of good things?"

"No, if too many ordnance is released, it will be a very big threat to the imperial court. No matter what the ordnance is, it cannot be opened again in a short period of time."

In the end, no one came up with a good solution.

When everyone was discussing whether to destroy a few sects with a bad reputation and search for a wave of money, the four of them rushed in hurriedly. Seeing Zeng Yi was surprised, they said to the old prince seriously: " Please tell your lord, the military captain's mansion has just received information that the grasslands in the north have deployed 40 troops in the area bordering the Western Regions on the west front. In addition to the grasslands, the three kingdoms of Western Xia, Persia, and Tubo have also dispatched troops. At that time, there were more than [-] troops around the entire Western Region, and they would invade the Western Region at any time!"

Upon hearing this, Zeng Yi turned pale with shock, "Hiss! Could it be that they have already done something?"

Shaking the sky shook his head: "There is no attack yet, but the deployment of troops and generals has been completed, and the four countries may invade the Western Regions at any time."

"I didn't expect the Four Congresses to be so fast! I hope the Western Regions can withstand it, otherwise we." The old prince didn't finish his words, but everyone understood the meaning. The Central Plains was obviously not ready. Once the Western Regions couldn't stand it for a few days, then The imperial court will be very passive in the face of the Allied Forces of the Four Nations.

"My lord, the war in the Western Regions is imminent, and I must go to the Western Regions!"

"Alright, the Western Regions is of great importance. My lord, no matter what method you use, you must hold back the pace of the Allied Forces of the Four Nations."

"My lord, I'm not absolutely sure how long I can delay, but don't worry, I will do my best. As long as I am still in the Western Regions for a day, I will definitely not only allow the Allied Forces of the Four Nations to enter the Central Plains, unless they kill me from my dead body." Get over it." With Fengtian Chengren's recovery, Zeng Yi finally spoke without fear of death.

Returning to the capital, Zeng Yi stayed for a whole day, but didn't see the little princess, and didn't even go to the military commander's mansion, so he set off for the Western Regions the next time.
