Chapter 809

~8 min read 1,483 words

Of course, the destination of the funds must also be supervised by Rongshan.

As a creditor, it has the right to supervise the direction of the funds. This is content written in black and white in the contract, and if the Yuan Royal Court wants to get subsequent aid, it cannot breach the contract.

None of these are strange to He Lingchuan. A dead tree will not only rot in the heart of the tree; the country is so big, and there are countless places to spend money.

The closer to money, the greater the benefit.

Ordinary people have nothing to do with these 3.7 million, or even these 7 million silver.

He Lingchuan thought for a while and asked He Yue: "The court meeting is arguing so fiercely, what did Father say?"

"Father said nothing. When the Monarch asked about the distribution of military supplies, Father only said that it was all up to the Monarch."

He Lingchuan couldn't help laughing: "Advancing by retreating."

He Chunhua wants to fight for something he wants, and the Yuan King doesn't want to give it, so the two sides are pulling back and forth.

Therefore, He Chunhua's attitude is also very clear: if you don't give what I want, this war cannot be fought well.

"But this is too obvious," anyway, He Chunhua was not there, He Yue said in a low voice, "Father forcing the Monarch like this, I fear the monarch and ministers will be alienated in the future."

He Lingchuan didn't care: "The way of monarch and ministers is also the way of offense and defense."

Offense and defense, then there is a reversal of the situation, and there is an exchange of strength and weakness.

Lady Ying shushed him: "Stinky boy, watch your words!"

He Lingchuan responded with a grin, "Yes," Mother was also doing it for his own good, there are ears behind the wall. Especially with the position the He family is in now, it is so subtle.

For the current monarch, Father is not very respectful from the bottom of his heart. He believes He Yue saw it long ago and knows the reason very well.

Monarch and ministers alienated? Tsk, it would be strange if they weren't.

It's just a superficial harmony right now.

The leftover banquet had not been cleared when He Chunhua suddenly returned.

He was beaming, walking through the courtyard with big strides, and He Lingchuan even saw the peach blossoms falling from the trees being brushed aside by the wind he brought.

"Madam, Chuan'er, Yue'er," He Chunhua stood on the spot, heroic and spirited, his eyes burning, "Standing in front of you is already the Yizhou Superintendent, and I lead the military affairs of three states!"

Lady Ying covered her lips and let out a low cry, subconsciously wanting to throw herself into his arms, but after taking two steps forward, she remembered that her sons were watching from behind, so she was embarrassed to reach out.

The He brothers stood up at once, in unison:

"Congratulations, Father!"

The position of Yizhou Superintendent that He Chunhua had been thinking about, and the military power he had been thinking about, were finally in hand!

As deep as He Chunhua's city, he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he got home, looking up to the sky and laughing!

His plan was being realized step by step.

Lady Ying held her chest and said happily: "I'll go to the kitchen to add dishes!"

This meal, the He family ate with laughter.

He Yue asked his father: "You will be going on an expedition soon, right?"

"Soon," He Chunhua hadn't been this happy for a long time, "The military supplies will be ready within three days. The army will finish reorganization within six days, and we will go south to quell the rebellion!"

With money and power, everything is easy to handle.

After the meal, He Chunhua grabbed He Lingchuan and went to the study.

The He family had not moved to the Yuan capital for long, and He Chunhua's study was only half organized, with most of the shelves still empty.

He Lingchuan took advantage of his inattention, patted his chest, and reminded the mirror to work.

The Soul-Seizing Mirror said repeatedly: "I know, I know, I'm watching!"

He Lingchuan also toured the study, grabbing a few books to flip through.

He Chunhua laughed when he saw it: "You used to hate reading the most, and would start yawning as soon as you touched a book. I didn't expect that among the two sons, you are the one who is more promising now."

He Lingchuan waved his hand: "What is Father saying? The second one is internally talented, clearly a material for assisting the government."

"Exactly," He Chunhua sighed, "Your vision is also better now."

He Lingchuan scratched his chin: "Father suddenly praised me, what happened?"

He Chunhua scolded with a laugh: "Can't I praise you if nothing happened?"

After these few days of drinking and feasting together, the relationship between the father and son had eased a lot, returning to a delicate balance.

In He Lingchuan's understanding, it was mainly because he was relatively cooperative in the assessment of asset collateral, and He Chunhua was going smoothly.

But he was actually following the normal process; since He Chunhua, the Yuan King, and the Rongshan Sect all hoped to solve the shortage of military supplies as soon as possible, the funds would naturally be allocated quickly.

Of course, how the subsequent funds are approved and used still has to pass through He Lingchuan, which is also an important reason for He Chunhua to be amiable to him again.

The current He Lingchuan is no longer the original body that would be easily moved by his father giving a smiling face and saying two good words.

Just then, the Soul-Seizing Mirror quietly said to He Lingchuan: "Can't find it, it seems that book is not here."

He Lingchuan's eyes flashed slightly.

Before entering He Chunhua's study, he had ordered the mirror to search for "Yao Hua Ji Zhu" (Yao Flower Collection Notes).

This was a book that Sun Hongye entrusted Zhu Xiuer to pass to him, and it was also a password decryption book.

Without this book, He Lingchuan didn't know what Sun Hongye wanted to tell him.

He held two hopes, perhaps the book would be hidden in He Chunhua's study.

However, it was not.

He Chunhua walked to the inner room of the study, where a sand table was placed.

"Your vision is good, come over and help me see how these battles should be fought."

He fiddled with it a few times, and the sand table began to reveal the terrain of mountains and rivers.

He Lingchuan looked at it for a few moments, his pupils shrinking.

One lake after another appeared on the sand table, scattered like pearls scattered on the ground.

Although the size, position, and distance of the lakes were slightly different, He Lingchuan still saw at a glance where this was—

Longchuan!

This was the map he had to face every day in the Panlong world, so of course he wouldn't see it wrong!

Was He Chunhua's destination for going south to quell the rebellion actually Longchuan?

That's right, the territory of the Xiji Nation more than a hundred years ago was now within the territory of the Great Yuan.

The location of Longchuan and the southern trade route back then was exactly the southern part of the Yuan Nation, within the territory of Yizhou today!

Back then it was the suppression of bandits in Yuheng City, now it is He Chunhua quelling the rebellion.

Time is intertwined, as if it were another reincarnation.

He still had to look suspicious: "Is this Father's goal? The terrain is very complicated."

"Not bad," He Chunhua pointed to the sand table, "There are mainly two rebel armies, one in the southeast, with about ten thousand people; I haven't heard of any tricky characters, and they just lost to the government army not long ago."

"This rebel army should be easy to deal with."

"The difficulty lies in the other rebel army in the south. And the difficulty of quelling the rebellion lies in Longchuan," He Chunhua pointed to the series of lakes, "They now use Longchuan as their lair, with a force of fifty thousand people; they have already repelled the government army three times and have a great reputation in the local area, and many villagers nearby have heard the news and joined them."

He Lingchuan nodded.

He had seen the true face of the Yuan Nation's bureaucrats; when the national body is rotten, contradictions between officials and people are numerous, and conflicts intensify, which is also the reason why the rebel army rose up, and as long as they won a few victories, the team would grow stronger.
