In a private garden in Tianluo City, the emperor and the minister Luo Ping were playing chess.

"Luo Aiqing, Luo Aiqing......"

Seeing that Luo Ping on the other side was a little distracted, Luo Su said with some dissatisfaction, he knew that his chess skills were a little bad, but he was ignored again and again, which made him very dissatisfied.

Thinking of this, Luo Su snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry, Weichen is ......"

Luo Ping obviously had something to say, which made Luo Su a little puzzled, the person in front of him has always been straightforward and quick to say, and because of this bad character, he even offended many people.

It's good now, when the two of them are alone in chess, it should be a good time to talk and chat, but he is good this time, but he stumbled and hesitated.

What the hell is he trying to say?

"Your Majesty, it's a matter of war."

"Oh, could it be that Luo Aiqing also wants to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy?"

Luo Su's voice was somewhat dissatisfied, in his opinion, Luo Ping's words were somewhat suspected of overstepping his position, and he had handed over all the things of the war to Lan Tang.

If there is any dissatisfaction, he should talk to Lan Tang about it, and he can't take up the time to play chess.

Naturally, Luo Ping also sensed Luo Su's dissatisfaction, however, this matter has been delayed for a long time, and now, it is time to have to say it.

Thinking of this, he still said stubbornly.

"Your Majesty, it's not a matter on the battlefield, you see, it's been so long since the war, and there hasn't been any movement, and the ...... have been summoned from all over the world."

"Just let them wait a little longer!"

Luo Su put the teacup in his hand on the table, and when he pressed too hard, the base of the teacup collided with the table, making a crisp crashing sound.

"Your Majesty, if it affects the economy of various places......

Finally said the words in his heart, Luo Ping also regained his former ability, and he didn't know where he got the courage, he patted the table, with different degrees of anxiety in his tone.

Fortunately, Luo Su is anxious, he only cares about what others say, and as for some trivial politeness, he doesn't care too much.

It was only at this time that Luo Ping realized his rudeness, which directly frightened him into a cold sweat, but fortunately, His Majesty didn't mind it.

"If there is a war, didn't I send General Lan there?"

"However, just a little bit of people is not enough ......"

"What, are you questioning General Lan's combat effectiveness?"

"Wechen doesn't dare, but Wechen feels that we should still send some more manpower to take this opportunity to prevent future troubles."

Luo Ping said as he spoke, his voice gradually became much quieter, and even when he listened to it, he felt that it was difficult to convince Luo Su at all.

Unexpectedly, Luo Su's next speech was casual, which surprised Luo Ping a little.

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll leave it to you, what's the matter, don't you have a lot of ideas?"

Looking at His Majesty's expression, he was not very angry, and he didn't seem to be saying anything angry, but to say that, he was just a Wenchen, and he was okay with dancing and writing, but if he led troops to fight, he would be completely out of business.

In addition, he doesn't have any troops, material resources, and financial resources, thinking of this, Luo Ping showed a rather embarrassed expression, things have progressed to this point, even if he has an old face, he has to say it.

"Your Majesty, that fund, and the military power......"

"Oh, then you can go and find Wancai."

Luo Su drank the tea in the cup, said a few more casual words, and got up and left here, leaving with a rather funny expression on his face.

Naturally, there is a precedence in hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art industry, he will not let people who don't understand it change to lead troops to fight, this kind of thing, he will find a professional to deal with, about this, anyway, it will not delay things.

As for Luo Ping's side, Luo Su didn't tell him about his next plans, what Luo Su wanted to see more was Luo Ping's helplessness when he encountered an unfamiliar field.

It's not that the emperor has any habits that are different from ordinary people, it's really that this Luo Ping likes to be nosy too much, so it's okay, take this opportunity to beat him well.

As for Wancai, part of the funds of the imperial court will be under his control, anyway, he is not a particularly good talker, Luo Ping, he will ask for more blessings.

Thinking of this, Luo Su smiled maliciously, and laughed rather shamelessly.

Luo Ping, who was still in the garden, had a numb scalp, blaming himself for his broken mouth and meddling with things, but now he threw his whole body in.

There is also that Wancai, who is notoriously difficult to speak within the imperial court, and the thought of dealing with him makes Luo Ping's scalp tingle.

If he could, he wouldn't even want to come near a five-mile radius of Wancai, however, the reality was that he had to find Wancai and get him to grant his request.

Otherwise, there will be no funds for all his subsequent actions, and without funds, it means that there are no troops, and if there are no troops, he will lose face in front of His Majesty.

If you lose face in front of Your Majesty, it means that you can't hold your head up in front of others, and you ...... in front of others

God, Luo Ping didn't want this, when he thought of such a serious consequence, his mood became worse than ever.

In desperation, Luo Ping still stubbornly walked through the streets and alleys for a while, and wasted time slowly, and then slowly walked to the door of Wanfu.

Luo Ping just wanted to call someone to report, but coincidentally, Wan just happened to come out, so good, so good.

After Luo Ping saluted Wan Cai a few times, he threw a smile that he thought was very elegant to the other party, however, in Wan Cai's opinion, Luo Ping's smile made him a little uncomfortable.

"Lord Luo is here, why is it coming?"

To say that Wancai is not easy to talk is not to say that he is not polite, nor that he is unprincipled, on the contrary, he has done a good job.

The reason why he said this is entirely because he is too principled in doing things, so to speak, it is okay to get funds from here, but you must say the specific purpose of the funds.

This is nothing, after all, the funds of the imperial court are not blown by the wind, and it is not impossible to implement them for specific purposes.

The key is that Wancai's requirements are implemented every day, which is a little uncomfortable, if it is someone else, maybe it can still be hard-headed.

When he came to Luo Ping's side, he had another feeling that he didn't know anything about leading troops to fight, and more importantly, he didn't even have soldiers now.

Even if it's nonsense, you have to understand it yourself, he doesn't even know some of the most basic art of war, isn't this killing him?

What's worse is that now that it's all here, there is no excuse or reason to retreat, and it is not appropriate to let Wan Cai wait for a long time, thinking of this, out of various considerations, he still said hard.

"This, Your Majesty has explained some things to me, you see, can you transfer some funds?"

"Yes, what exactly?"

"Lead the troops to fight."

"Okay, a pair of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, come on......"

"Wait, it's not painting, it's not painting, it's the kind that goes to war."

“……”

Wan Cai stared at Luo Ping for a long time, neither smelling the smell of wine, nor seeing anything wrong, no problem, a good civil official, what nonsense did he come to him.

Even if he moves out of His Majesty's name, Wancai's side can't agree to him, not to mention, there is no basis for his words, and he doesn't even have a token, so he wants him to take out the money, which is impossible.

Thinking of this, Wan Cai shook his head, feeling that Luo Ping was here to entertain himself.

"No, unless you take out His Majesty's edict, no, no, it won't work either, you have to say the specific plan."

Luo Ping can still get the evidence, he kept an eye on it before playing chess, and recorded the whole process.

Of course, his original intention in shooting this video was not this at all, just to prevent His Majesty from regretting his chess, but now it is good, it has come in handy here, Luo Ping has a feeling that he can't cry or laugh.

He dealt with it on the spot again, pinched the head and tail, picked out some that could be put on, and directly released it to Wancai, which dispelled the other party's doubts all along.

"Well, in that case, tell me about your plan."

Come, come, the most critical place is here, success or failure depends on winning or losing in this move, everything depends on your own mouth.

"First of all, I need some troops, and from the civilian soldiers, I need some settling-in money."

"No problem."

"Secondly, I need some equipment, after all, if I don't even have weapons, this battle can't be fought."

"No, the state can't give out this part of the money."

"Why?"

"If it's too expensive, the court can't afford it, and if it's too cheap, there's no need to pay it."

"What about some in-between?"

Wan Cai looked at Luo Ping, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Let's put it this way, Lord Luo, it's not that you can't wait, it's just that if you want to get that batch of equipment, wait until next year."

After hearing this, Luo Ping's heart was directly half cold, he just didn't understand military things, which didn't mean that he was a fool.

There are so many weapons in the treasury that are not needed, and if you divide some casually, it will be enough for him to use it for a long time, and the reason why I say this is nothing more than to see that he is weak and wants to suppress him.

Thinking of this, Luo Ping didn't say anything, it seems that if you want to be equipped, you have to rely on fighting monsters and upgrading to get it.

After that, the two chatted for a long time, and when it came to it, it was all non-nutritious things, and Wancai's side was just a word, if you want money, if you want anything else, don't give it.

Under Luo Ping's soft grinding and hard bubbles, he only got ten ancient dust coins from Wancai as a temporary comfort.

Ten Ancient Dust Coins may seem like a lot, but for a large number of people, it is not enough to see at all, and the cost of food and equipment alone will cost more than half.

Luo Ping, who was very depressed in his heart, walked on the streets of the city with a dejected face, laughing a little self-deprecatingly.

It is really annoying that a dignified civil official has been mixed into such a situation, and has even been repeatedly manipulated.

As he walked, he came to the east of the city, where the environment seemed very unfamiliar, and he seemed to have never come here.

What came into view was a grass and wooden house, anyway, there was nothing to do, Luo Ping simply pushed open the door of the courtyard, and walked in directly without even saying hello.
