Zhang Yi went through his mind before he reported: "Your Highness, in addition to the expenses spent on acquiring land and supporting the development of the Heaven and Earth Society these days, we still have 41,228 taels of silver in the accounts of Xiaoyao Mansion, and the shop and house deeds are not included in this calculation. ”

"There are forty thousand taels, not a lot, not a lot!"

Ye Qing thought for a while and said: "In this way, you take out 30,000 taels to Li Ru, I hope to set up the framework of Jinyiwei as soon as possible, and develop Jinyiwei as quickly as possible." ”

Intelligence agencies are very costly.

Don't look at 30,000 taels as a lot, but when it really develops, it's just a drop in the bucket.

"Your Highness! If 30,000 taels are spent, then only 11,228 taels are left, although we can exchange the horses and horse farms for the surplus heroes without spending money.

However, building weapons, purchasing grain and meat, building barracks, and so on are all huge expenses, and more than 10,000 taels may not last long. Zhang Yi suggested:

"Can you spend 20,000 taels to Jinyiwei first, and Wen You will make up for the lack of money in the future."

Ye Qing looked at Li Ru.

Li Ru said: "Lord, I think Haifeng's proposal is feasible, and I have no opinion on my side." ”

"Okay! Since you all think it's okay, let's approve 20,000 taels first. "Ye Qing is not an opinionated person, he just wants to improve his intelligence agency as soon as possible.

One is poor and two are white, and everything needs to be done by themselves.

He needs real intelligence data so badly.

Although the intelligence sales function of the system is powerful, it also has a disadvantage, that is, passivity.

Zhang Yi stepped back and went to prepare money for Li Ru.

Here, Ye Qing instructed Li Ru again: "Wen You, today I will go to discuss the matter of horses and horse farms with others, that Murong Cheng is a Turkic spy, in the case of abundant manpower, you send someone to keep an eye on it, and report it to me in time if there is any movement." ”

Turkic spies, Li Ru heard a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, and replied with a fist:

"It's the lord!"

"Of course, now our main energy is still in my Great Zhou, especially in Chang'an City, and the line of Jinyiwei doesn't need to spread outward in a hurry." Ye Qing confessed again.

Li Ru said he understood.

Only then did he retreat to find Yuhuatian, the deputy commander.

Then Ye Qing came to Ban again and asked him to recruit foot soldiers to be in charge of the guards of Xiaoyao Mansion.

Zhao Yun led the ride, and Yu Ban led the step.

is also a positive and a pair, forming the Xiaoyao Mansion Guard.

That's all that was done.

Xie Xun came to the door and said, "Your Highness, there is a palace eunuch who calls himself Zhang Rang who asks to see him. ”

Zhang Rang!

This dog thing is coming!

Ye Qing walked out of the study, and then went to the hall!

At this time, Zhang asked Yijing to wait a little.

When he saw Ye Qing, he immediately saluted respectfully and said, "Zhang Rang has seen His Highness!" ”

"Tell me, what are you doing here?" Ye Qing asked.

Ordinary eunuchs can't leave the palace if they have nothing to do.

Although Zhang Rang signed a letter of allegiance, Ye Qing knew that he could not really take refuge in himself.

Zhang Rang looked left and right, and Ye Qing said: "Here are all my henchmen, you can say anything!" ”

Zhang Rang said: "Your Highness, some time ago, Your Majesty sent four first-class masters to the King of Chu as guards. ”

Well!

Four first-class masters!

Don't...... It's those four swordsmen!

What a hemp!

No wonder Ye Mao is so arrogant and vicious, all of them are supported by the dignified emperor behind him.

Ye Qing couldn't help but show a hint of weirdness.

Seeing that Ye Qing was silent, Zhang Rang was a little embarrassed, so he said again: "The slave maid came this time to follow His Majesty's will and invite His Royal Highness into the palace to meet Your Majesty!" ”

"Recruit me into the palace......"

Ye Qing was a little surprised.

This is so good, why do you suddenly want to see me.

Could it be that the assassination of the Four Swordsmen failed, when the emperor was ready to shoot in person.

This is too heartless!

Ye Mao can't slash, you, the father, are ready to take the knife yourself.

However, Ye Qing was a little suspicious.

I couldn't guess Ye Zhen's intentions.

If Ye Zhen was a normal emperor and a promising monarch, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

"Yes, Your Highness!

Zhang Rang emphasized, observing Ye Qing, he seemed to feel Ye Qing's hesitation, and his eyes rolled and said:

"Your Highness, rest assured, the slave maid thinks that this may be a good thing, and His Majesty was slightly happy when he gave the order."

"Slightly happy!" Ye Qing smiled.

He just abolished the four swordsmen that the emperor gave to Ye Mao.

The Emperor could still be happy.

You're afraid you didn't wake up.

Zhang Rang said: "That's right, Your Highness! Maybe His Royal Highness has made some achievements after leaving the palace and has grown a face for the royal family, so this time it may be a knighthood for His Highness. ”

What Ye Qing did in the civil affairs workshop, Zhang Rang also knew.

So it's not a compliment either.

Because of Ye Qing's strong rise, he also found an opportunity.

Perhaps investing in this six princes, who has no backing, is not a bad thing.

Just like he did at the beginning.

The other princes did not allow them to be eunuchs, but the sixth prince did.

Ye Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Okay! I'll go into the palace with you later, and I'll go change my clothes!" ”

Leaving the hall, Ye Qing asked Li Ru to call him over.

Back in the study, Ye Qing asked, "Wen You, Your Majesty suddenly wants to recruit me into the palace!" ”

Li Ru understood what Ye Qing wanted to say, and after a while, he pondered and said: "Lord, we can't refuse this matter, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven after all, and the Lord of the Great Zhou, if it is really unfavorable to the Lord, with our current strength, we can't change anything!" ”

"Indeed!" Ye Qing bowed slightly, waved his hand to let him step back, changed into a new set of clothes, dressed properly, and then followed Zhang Rang into the palace.

This time, he didn't have to ride in the carriage, and rode his horse to follow Zhang Rang to Suzaku Street.

Entering through the side door, I looked curiously at the layout of the Taiji Palace all the way.

After turning a few palace bans, I arrived at the imperial study!

"Your Highness, Your Majesty is inside, the slaves and maids will not go in, Your Highness, please come in!"

Zhang Rang sent Ye Qing here, and he had his own eunuch to push the door to greet him.

Ye Qing walked in generously.

The vermilion heavy palace gate slowly closed.

The view of the study is dark.

There is no palm light.

At this time, it is near dusk.

It's a little dark.

Ye Qing glanced around through the dim halo.

Two rows of bookshelves are erected, and the shelves are full of bamboo slips.

In the end, Ye Qing's eyes were fixed on the seat in the middle.

There was no one on it, it was empty.

It took about a minute.

At this moment, a figure walked out from the side of the screen at the back of the study.

This person walked out and did not immediately sit on the dragon chair seat, but stopped next to him and looked at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing also looked at this person.

The light was not good, and I couldn't see clearly, but the two of them looked at each other like this.

The whole world seems to have fallen into a deep valley.

It's silent, but there's a kind of empty chatter and panic.

There was silence for a long time, and finally the dark shadow spoke.

"You know who I am!"

"Yes!"

"Know why you don't kneel!"

"Do you mean kneeling a father or a son of heaven!"

"Ugh!"

Ye Zhen above suddenly laughed.

"What's the difference!"

"A father will not let his children grovel, will not let his children be hurt and hurt, and will be merciful in every way."

"A son of heaven is majestic when he speaks, and he speaks according to his words, even if he does not speak, a courtier should first show his loyalty and bow to his head."
