"By the way, there's one more thing."

Fu Tianqi took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and put them in front of Lu An.

"It's—"

Lu An looked at Fu Tianqi curiously.

"Hehe, yesterday afternoon, Sun Yue of the Ministry of Industry invited me to the restaurant for a drink, and by the way, he gave me a silver ticket of 5,000 taels."

"It just so happens that Your Majesty is short of silver now, so these silver tickets are simply handed in."

Lu An directly threw the silver ticket back, "Brother Fu, the treasury is short of silver, and you don't need to use your own silver to offset it." ”

"However, Sun Yue is a secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and he is at the same level as you, why did he think of giving you a gift? I'm afraid it's not something to ask for, right? ”

"Hehe, Your Majesty is still wise."

Fu Tianqi smiled, "Sun Yue was originally from the Ministry of War, but he was later transferred to the Ministry of Industry and promoted. ”

"However, he came to me yesterday and said that he missed his former colleagues in the military department, and hoped that I could open the door so that he could have time to go to the military department and walk around."

Lu An also smiled, "Since Sun Yue took the initiative to give it to you, just take it." ”

"If you are really too embarrassed to ask for it, it is better to give it to the brothers and improve your life."

When Fu Tianqi heard this, he was no longer hypocritical, thanked him, and picked up the silver ticket again.

"But—"

Lu An then frowned, "Sun Yue wants to go back to the military department, saying that he is visiting his old colleagues, it seems to be just a pretense, right?" ”

Fu Tianqi sneered, "The current military department, there are Weichen, and there are Luo Ming brothers and Zhao Gang brothers, almost completely in our own hands, Sun Yue was only a small role in the military department before, what can he worry about?" ”

"According to Weichen, Sun Yue must be thinking about our little black ball!"

Chu Yin on the side was shocked when he heard this, and immediately said nervously, "Since this is the case, he must not be allowed to move around at will in the military department!" ”

"Nope." Lu An waved his hand, "Brother Fu, he wants to go to the military department for a walk, whatever he wants." ”

"Of course, before that, if you can pick up more silver from him, try to pick it up!"

"From my point of view, Sun Yue's move must be the idea of the Fuyang Zhang family and the Gaoyang Wang family."

"Those two great families have silver in their hands!"

can get money from those guys, of course Fu Tianqi is happy to see it, but-

"But, Your Majesty, our little black balls are now stored in the military department, in case he finds out......"

"The storage conditions of the little black ball are extremely harsh, afraid of tide, afraid of fire, afraid of high temperature, it is really dangerous to store it in the military department, one can't take care of it, in case of explosion, half of the capital will be scorched earth."

"So, Brother Fu, in the past two days, you will find our brothers, secretly transfer all the remaining little black balls to Meishan Villa on the outskirts of Beijing, and send heavy troops to guard them strictly, and there must be no problems!"

"After transporting the little black ball away, Sun Yue wants to go to the military department, so it's up to him."

Meishan Villa used to be Lu Yuyan's industry, and its geographical location is remote, not easy to be found, and it is the best place to store small black balls.

Fu Tianqi nodded solemnly, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will arrange for my brothers to be secretly transported over when I go back, and no one will find out." ”

"Your Majesty—"

Chu Yin stood up again, "The little black ball is related to the safety of the community, Sun Yue mentioned it before, and I hope that the Ministry of Industry will supervise more little black balls to come out." ”

"Of course, Sun Yue is unreliable, so naturally he can't be supervised by the Ministry of Industry, but the minister thinks that it is better for us to build more of our own people in case of emergency."

"There's no need." Lu An didn't think about it, and immediately refused.

"According to statistics, there are more than 2,000 small black balls left, which is enough."

"The existence of the little black ball is only a deterrent."

"Looking at the world, who doesn't know that my little black ball is powerful now, as long as you don't want to die too quickly, no one should dare to use force against Daqian."

"However, Daqian has no ambition to dominate the world."

"Nor is it just about force."

"There are small black balls, which are enough to deter the surrounding countries, and the rest is internal stability, treat your own people, and you can't use such a lethal weapon."

"A country that is only sustained by powerful weapons will have problems sooner or later."

"Besides, if our army relies too much on the little black ball, how will the army train in the future?"

"The soldiers know that we have a little black ball, and they will definitely have a sense of slackness, and if it goes on for a long time, the quality of the army will get worse and worse, and sooner or later they will lose the country."

"Therefore, the number of small black balls only needs to be maintained at about two thousand."

"Unless there is an invasion by a foreign enemy, no one can be mobilized at will without my will!"

"Your Ministers obey!"

After everyone dispersed, Lu An moved to Kunning Palace.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lu Hai jumping up and running in front of him, raising his little face, and shouting crisply, "Erchen see my father." ”

Lu An was immediately happy, bent down and hugged him.

"What are you doing, little one?"

As he spoke, Lu An looked at Mu Lingfeng and Erma, who were walking towards him.

"Concubines, see Your Majesty."

Lu An nodded, and Lu Hai in his arms grabbed Lu An's robe, pursed his lips and said, "Mother, I and Erchen have been back for two days, and I can't see my father, and I don't even have much time to eat together, so Erchen begged my mother to bring my son-in-law over and want to eat with my father." ”

"Okay, let's have dinner together."

Lu An smiled, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Since Erma returned with Hai'er, he had only met Erma's mother and son once.

Among them, most of it is naturally because of the awkward relationship between him and Erma, but he didn't expect to inadvertently hurt the child.

Seeing that Lu An agreed, Mu Lingfeng was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered someone to arrange dinner in Kunning Palace.

After eating, Erma took Hai'er back to the Eternal Life Palace.

"Your Majesty, are you a little too cold to Erma?"

"You never said a word to her during the meal just now!"

Mu Lingfeng whispered, "Actually, before His Majesty came back, Erma intentionally or unintentionally revealed it to her concubine......s and wanted to stay and sleep."

"Bedchamber?" Lu An's heart moved when he heard this, but there was no change in expression on his face, "No." ”

"Why?" Mu Lingfeng was puzzled, "Anyway, she is also His Majesty's wife." ”

Lu An looked at Mu Lingfeng with a strange look, "I remember that you and Erma used to fight as soon as we met, why do you still have to speak for her now?" ”

"That was before, the concubine was not sensible, but the concubine thought that Erma was also your wife after all, and it was her duty to serve the bed."

"Still won't work." Lu An shook his head again, "Since she regained her memory, there has been an extra layer of separation between me and her. ”

"Besides, she had intended to join forces with Pu Zhen and Xia Gang to deal with me before, aren't you worried about my safety if you let such a dangerous woman get close to me?"

"Uh-"

"But Your Majesty can't ignore her all the time, can you?"

"Compare your heart to your heart, the concubine feels that Erma must be very aggrieved in her heart......"

Lu An sighed and said, "The so-called one-day husband and wife are one hundred days, I am not a heartless person, and I also want to live in harmony with her like before, but I still feel that safety comes first." ”

"Unless—"

"Unless what?" Mu Lingfeng asked subconsciously.

Lu An said seriously, "Unless someone is there to protect me when she sleeps, then I can feel at ease." ”

"Huh?" Mu Lingfeng was stunned, "Do you still have someone to guard the bed?" ”

"This ......"

"Is it possible to let Ah Da guard by the side?"

Lu An's face turned dark when he heard this, "Ah Da is a man!" ”

"What does Your Majesty mean, do you have to let a woman stand by you?"

"It's a pity that Rao Ying's girl is not as good as Erma, even if she is kept by the side, once there is really danger, it will not help."

The corners of Lu An's mouth turned up slightly, "Does Erma really intend to sleep?" ”

"Of course!" Mu Lingfeng replied categorically, "If it weren't for the shyness, Erma would have taken the initiative to propose it to His Majesty." ”

"That's easy, Lingfeng, you and Erma's kung fu has always been between you, if you are guarding by your side, I don't have to worry about it anymore."

"What?!" Mu Lingfeng was immediately dumbfounded when he heard this, and the next moment, his face was as red as blood.
