Text Chapter 216: Nangong pardons for military salaries

Yan Ziyue and the others walked out of Huaming Building, Steward Luo and Lei Yunting walked in front, and Yan Ziyue and Nangong Yu walked behind.

"Yue'er...", Nangong Yu wanted to ask something, but he couldn't help it when the words came to his lips.

Yan Ziyue looked at Nangong Yu, knowing what he wanted to ask, in fact, she also wanted to take the initiative to explain to him, but now, she really hadn't figured out what to say.

Nangong pardon sent Yan Ziyue back to King Kang's Mansion, always looking at Yan Ziyue with a stunned smile, without too many words.

Yan Ziyue was a little ashamed of Nangong Amnesty, so her eyes were a little dodgy, and she changed her law to let Nangong Pardon taste this and that.

Lei Yunting couldn't stand it anymore, so he hardplayed Nangong pardon competition, which liberated Yan Ziyue.

In the backyard of King Kang's Mansion, Lei Yunting held the dragon descending gong in his hand and said: "Nangong pardon, let you see my dragon descending gong."

Nangong Yu had no intention of fighting, walked towards the water pavilion, leaned sideways on the pavilion railing, looked at the koi in the water, and was silent.

Lei Yunting took the dragon and walked over, and asked, "Nangong pardon, what's the matter with you, didn't you say that you would talk to me?"

Nangong Yu raised his eyes to look at Lei Yunting and said, "Okay... Then you can answer me a few questions first."

"You say", Lei Yunting knew that he would ask, Yan Zi might not be able to answer well, he didn't care, but, if he answered wrong, would he cause something to make Yan Ziyue more difficult, thinking in his heart that it was better to weigh it, answer if he can, and pretend not to know if he can't answer.

"Who is that God of Flame Wealth in Huaming Building today"?

"I don't know the specific identity, I only know that the people in the rivers and lakes call him the God of Flame Wealth."

"What is the relationship between him and Yue'er"?

Lei Yunting touched his head in a daze and said, "It's hard to say."

"What do you mean by hard to say"?

Lei Yunting thought about it and chose to be silent.

"He likes Yue'er, right"? Nangong pardoned.

"So you can see it"?

"How could I not see it, the way he looked at Yue'er, he had clearly told me."

Nangong Yu turned his head and continued to look at the fish swimming freely in the water, and suddenly asked, "Does Yue'er like him too?"

Lei Yunting was startled, and in the face of Nangong Yu's eyes, he wanted to escape a little.

"Nangong pardon, actually...".

"You don't have to say it, I get it".

Lei Yunting had no choice but to keep silent and tilt his head to the side.

"Lei Yunting, you also like Yue'er, don't you?"

Lei Yunting was shocked with a "Ah...", a bit like a child who had done something wrong, and was embarrassed to blush.

Nangong Yu looked at Lei Yunting and smiled slightly: "Does that Yue'er know that you like her?"

"Know... Let's go", Thunder replied weakly.

Nangong Yu lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly when he heard this.

"Nangong pardon, she is a princess".

"I know... If she weren't a princess... That's it".

"But she is a princess, and she may be the princess of Huofeng in the future."

"The princess...", Nangong Yu looked up at the clouds of unknown shape in the sky, and his eyes were covered with sadness.

"Nangong pardon, princess, she... Like you".

Nangong Yu glanced at Lei Yunting and asked, "Can you accept my existence?"

Lei Yunting was stopped by Nangong Yu, and lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying, "I can." What about you, can you accept my existence"?

"I said no, is that okay"?

"Nangong pardon...".

"Just kidding, I think I've accepted your existence."

"Really"?

"Hmm".

"Thank you".

"Not necessarily".

"Then can you accept the existence of the Flame God of Wealth?" Lei Yunting thought for a moment and asked.

"No, I can't".

"Oh...", Lei Yunting saw Nangong Yu's resolute attitude, both down-to-earth and worried.

"What about you? Can you accept his existence"? Nangong Yu asked.

"No...", Lei Yunting replied instinctively, but after thinking about it, it seems that it is not his turn to decide, everything depends on Yan Ziyue's mind.

Nangong Yu bit his thin lip, as if he was deciding something, and as if he was convincing himself, for a long time, he got up and said, "Lei Yunting, let me see your dragon descending technique", and pulled out the golden snake whip from his waist as he spoke.

"Okay...", Lei Yunting immediately became excited, pulled out the dragon descending sword, and attacked.

The two fought several times in the courtyard, Lei Yunting was ruthless, and Nangong Yu had a slight reservation, and the point was stopped.

The two fought for nearly an hour, and only then did they stop when both sides gradually felt physically exhausted.

"Nangong pardon, I can't imagine that your martial arts have improved a lot."

"You too, you have made great progress."

The two looked at each other and smiled heartily, and went to the Star Moon Pavilion.

Yan Ziyue changed into a pink women's dress and was lying on the table and was frowning, Meng Niang knew her thoughts, so she said: "Yue'er, people are honest with each other, it's good to say something."

Yan Ziyue glanced at Meng Niang and said, "Aunt Meng, some things can't be honest, honesty will only cause accidents."

"But sooner or later, you can't hide it."

"I know, but I really haven't figured it out yet."

"Yue'er, emotional matters, you don't need to think about it, just do whatever you want."

When Yan Ziyue heard this, she looked at Meng Niang in a daze, and thought for a while and said, "Aunt Meng, thank you."

"You've got it figured"?

"No... However, didn't you just say that, just do whatever you want."

"That's good", Meng Niang smiled reassuringly.

Nangong Yu and Lei Yunting returned.

Yan Ziyue greeted him and said, "What do you have to say besides martial arts?"

"No," Nangong replied.

"Really"? Yan Ziyue looked at Lei Yun Tingdao.

Lei Yunting was silent, turned around and said, "Meng Niang, I'm hungry."

"Well... Now it's time to eat", Meng Niang said and turned into the inner hall, and Lei Yunting followed to help.

"Nangong pardon, you really didn't say anything"?

"Yue'er, do you want to tell me something"?

Yan Ziyue approached Nangong Yu, stood on tiptoe, pecked his thin lips like a dragonfly, looked at him seriously and said: "Nangong Yu, I only want to love you, but I can't refuse others, because I already owe debts, love debts, if I can't pay it back in this life, I can only pay it back in the next life." However, in my next life, I wish I had only you."

After hearing this, Nangong Yu pulled Yan Ziyue into his arms, hugged her tightly, buried her head in her neck, and inhaled her unique fruity fragrance hard.

Yan Ziyue hugged Nangong Yu's back with her very cooperative hands, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the most down-to-earth and cherished warmth.

"Yue'er... Yue'er...", Nangong Yu called one by one, and every sound touched the softest place in Yan Ziyue's heart.

Nangong Yu left King Kang's Mansion after dinner, and entered the palace with Nangong Bo early the next morning.

This time, Nangong Yu and Nangong Bo knelt in the palace to ask to see Bai Qi, planning that if Bai Qi could not speak, he would not be able to kneel for a long time, the border materials were scarce, the cold winter wax moon, lack of food and clothing, no food and clothing, soldiers abounded, and the situation was very difficult.

Bai Qi was also helpless, so he entered the Imperial Ce Palace, closed the door, and still did not plan to pardon the two brothers in the South Palace.

When he entered the palace, he saw Nangong Yu and Nangong Bo kneeling in front of the Imperial Palace.

"The high priest is polite", Nangong Yu and Nangong Bo bowed their hands together, looked at each other, thinking that their father had repeatedly explained, if it was really difficult to find military salaries, they could ask the high priest for help, but when they came back, they learned that the high priest was sick, closed the door to thank the guests, and the court discussion was rare, but now he appeared in front of him unharmed, and he was inevitably a little surprised.

Zhan Li looked at Nangong Yu and Nangong Bo and said, "Don't kneel, get up, go in and wait", and said that he had already walked towards the hall.

When Cowson saw that he was leaving, he immediately stepped forward and saluted, "High priest, be well!"

"Well..., I have something important to see His Royal Highness King Qi, and I'm tired of passing it on.

"High Priest, His Royal Highness King Qi is busy with political affairs today, I'm afraid...", Coulson was interrupted by Yu Li before he finished speaking.

"Manager Kou, in that case, I don't care about the military salary, I'll go back first", Yu Li said and was about to turn around and leave.

When Corson heard this, he hurriedly said: "The high priest stays, and the old slave will go to pass the word."

When Bai Qi heard that Zhan Li was coming, and he also came forward to pay for the army, he was a little puzzled, but after thinking about it, he understood again, after all, Zhan Li was still the high priest, so he couldn't really let it go. However, the issue of military salaries is a matter of national capital, and delaying it is not a solution, and it will have to be resolved sooner or later.

"Curson, please let him in."

"It's... Those two sons"?

"Let them come in too, just right, and see what you think of him."

According to the rumor from Kosen, Nangong Yu and Nangong Bo followed Yu Li into the Imperial Palace.

Zhan Li bowed his hand, Nangong Yu and Nangong Bo knelt down on one knee and said: "Nangong Pardon", "Nangong Bo", "Knock to His Royal Highness King Qi".

"Excuse me," Bai Qi said.

Then, Bai Qi made a gesture and asked about the situation at the border between Nangong Yu and Nangong Bo.

Nangong Bo briefly stated some, and Nangong Yu took this opportunity to talk about the hardships of the soldiers in the army and the shortcomings of the military and political system, the most important thing is the salary, which has been lacking for many years, and the consequences are unimaginable.

Yan Li looked at Nangong Yu from the side, his words, deeds, and eyes and temperament, he couldn't help but think of Yan Moyu, King Kang, the more he looked at the man in front of him, the more he looked like Yan Moyu back then.

After hearing this, Bai Qi thought for a while, and then asked, "Nangong pardon, are you now patrolling the Western Camp?"

"Yes", Nangong pardoned and said.

"What is the current situation of the Western Daying"?

As soon as Nangong Yu heard this, he talked in detail about the situation in Xidaying, especially the major difficulties faced by the severe cold and frost now.

Bai Qi glanced at Yu Li, and asked: "In this way, the food and materials for the winter are urgently needed", stared at Nangong Yu, and continued: "Nangong Yu, in your opinion, how much food is needed to solve this dilemma"?

When Nangong heard this, he replied: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi, it takes 20 million taels to be enough."

"What, twenty million taels"? Bai Qi stood up in shock, the annual taxes had just been paid, and the inner treasury had been slightly enriched, but the silver deposit was only five million taels, and all the military funds were not enough.

Zhan Li glanced at Nangong Pardon, and saw that his face did not change, calm and calm, he had to admire it a little, thinking that the military salary that Nangong Yuan asked for in the letter was five million taels, which could solve the predicament of the Western Battalion, and now Nangong Pardon asked for 20 million taels when he opened his mouth, but it didn't frighten Bai Qi.

Bai Qi looked at Nangong Yu with some gloom, seeing that he had the slightest fear, he turned his head to look at Yan Li and said, "High Priest, do you have anything to say?"

Yu Li thought about it, got up and looked at Bai Qi and said, "His Royal Highness King Qi, since the two princes have said so, it can be seen that food and salary are the top priority, and I hope it will be as soon as possible."

Bai Qi glared angrily at Zhan Li, and his eyes were about to burst into flames.
