Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 228 Finally Convinced the Empress
Chen Yi walked to the desk and began to grind the ink to write the letter. After a while, it was finished, and after it dried, he handed it to Tuhada.

"You take it and find someone to give to your highness, and let me know when your highness has a reply."

After Tuha went back, Chen Yi began to write the memorial. After finishing all these tasks, he took 200 million taels of silver. Chen Yi knew when the matter of Xuanluo Kingdom would be resolved this time.

Chen Yi was worried that there would be less money, and it would be convenient for him to get it, so he took some more.

In the early morning of the next day, Chen Yi proposed that he was willing to go to the military governor himself, and the reason was ready-made. He had been there before, and he also had experience in military pay.

The other ministers did not object either. After all, if Chen Yi didn't go this time, they might be the ones going.

According to the military reports in the past few days, the Xuanluo Kingdom seems to have dispatched a large army to suppress the border and made up their minds, so these ministers have no information that the border troops can resist the Xuanluo Kingdom.

But the military pay and supplies must be supported, and the ministers are worried that when they go to the border, who knows if the city will still be there.

The Empress received the memorial, but did not give Chen Yi an affirmative answer.

Neither saying yes, nor saying no, has always been ambiguous. The empress's appearance made those ministers who supported the peace talks eager to move, and it seemed that there was something to be done.

Fortunately, Chen Yi is not in a hurry, he still has to wait for the message from the second prince of Liao.

Simply watching the court restart the dispute between you and me.

The second prince of the Liao Kingdom seemed to be very anxious, and the news came on the third day. Of course, the news was good news, and Chen Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After going to court the next day, he went directly to the imperial study to find the empress, and at the same time told the empress the consensus reached between him and the second prince of Liao. After hearing this, the empress walked back and forth hesitantly.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, at the same time he took out 20 taels of silver and said thoughtfully.

"Your Majesty, I don't know when I will return from this trip, so the 20 taels of silver are handed over to Your Majesty for scheduling and just in case. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this time I will not disappoint Your Majesty at all."

His face was calm, but his heart was full of joy, and finally saw Yinzi again.

"Your Majesty, I intend to withdraw 100 million taels as military supplies for the resistance against the Xuanluo Kingdom. I hope Your Majesty will allow it."

When the empress heard that there was so much money, she felt a little distressed. In comparison, Chen Yi didn't give her much, but the empress also knew that this time the battle in the west was indeed different.

After all, if one is not good, it will really lose its territory, and then there will be ministers to persuade it.

When the Empress thought of that scene, she shuddered.

"Chen Shilang, this matter is very important. I agree with you and the second prince of the Liao Kingdom, but you must know that the war with the Xuanluo Kingdom is the main thing, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise you will come to see him Bar!"

Chen Yi complained in his heart, now he agrees with the second prince of Liao Kingdom?

He hadn't let go of his mouth before, but when he saw the situation in Xuanluo Kingdom, he remembered to let go.

And to put it bluntly, to be able to have the confidence to start a war with the Xuanluo country this time, I must also thank the second prince of the Liao country for providing the money.

No matter how much he complained about the empress in his heart, the empress was finally relieved, he could do the task, and the rest was easy to talk about.

"Your Majesty understands, don't worry, I will fulfill my mission."

After Chen Yi and the Empress made up their minds, they left the Imperial Study Room.

The next morning, the empress announced the imperial edict agreeing to Chen Yi's assistance to the warlord.

Now, the other ministers had no choice but to acquiesce in the dispute.

The empress gave Chen Yi two days to prepare, and during these two days, Chen Yi received unprecedented attention. After all, the ministers were very curious about where Chen Yi got the money.

He really didn't ask the court for a copper coin, and the courtiers talked a lot about it in private.

If Chen Yi filled the hole by himself, no one would believe it. Everyone in the imperial capital probably knew how poor Chen Yi was.

Chen Yi has been to the Ministry of Industry in the past few days and asked the Ministry of Industry to prepare the necessary weapons and armor.

This time he has money, so he doesn't need to dig and search like last time. As for the money, he has already given it to the Ministry of Industry.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry asked Chen Yi several times in private, where did the money come from, not because of any other reasons, but mainly because of curiosity.

Chen Yi was tight-lipped this time and didn't reveal anything.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry is not the kind of small-bellied person. Knowing this matter, Chen Yi probably wouldn't be able to tell outsiders about it, so he thoughtfully stopped asking, and instead did his best to help build weapons.

For other things, because I paid more attention this time, Chen Yi did not interrupt the purchase of other things.

Anyway, this road passes through many places, and it will not attract attention if you can buy it at any time.

After arranging the affairs of the Ministry of Industry, Chen Yi stayed at home for most of the two days, learning medicine and poison from Fang Xuan. Chen Yi had memorized several of Fang Xuan's medical books because of his photographic memory.

The learning progress is still very fast. The current stage is to learn medical science, as well as the way of herbal medicine.

These things are the most difficult part of medical skills, and it is difficult to learn them in a short period of time.

Chen Yi was a little worried that he had failed Fang Xuan's teachings, so he took the time to see if he could hug Buddha's feet temporarily in the past two days, maybe it could be used in the war with Xuanluo this time.

After all, the current Dawu Kingdom is going with the flow for the development of the army, and it is of no help at all.

Compared with Xuanluo's horse country, objectively speaking, there is a gap in combat strength.

Otherwise, they would not have allowed Xuanluo to rob them for so many years, just driving away the bandits from Xuanluo, and did not dare to ask Xuanluo for an explanation. It was because of these indulgences that Xuanluo became more presumptuous.

This is a vicious circle, there is no way around it.

Although the people of Xuanluo Kingdom are tough and strong, their medical skills are relatively weak. It should be said that their culture is relatively lacking and there is no inheritance.

That's why Chen Yi felt that poison might be of great use.

Seeing that Chen Yi was so eager to learn, and knowing that Chen Yi was about to leave the imperial capital for the western border, Fang Xuan quickly figured out what he thought of Chen Yi.

In the past few days, Fang Xuan thought over and over again, and discussed with Cao Bo for a long time, before finally telling Chen Yi that Fang Xuan wanted to go to the western border with him.

When Chen Yi heard the news, he was overjoyed, but immediately looked at Uncle Cao with some hesitation.

Fang Xuan followed him out of the retirement village this time, mainly to visit Uncle Cao. Now that he has not stayed in the emperor for long, he is going to follow him to the western border. How could Chen Yi agree.

Besides, although Fang Xuan is younger than Uncle Cao, he is still in his 60s or [-]s, should he be allowed to wander with him?

The environment on the western border is already relatively difficult, and now the war with the Xuanluo country is not to mention the conditions.
