The Invincible Sixth Prince

Ten days later, the group finally returned to Shuofang.

Before they returned to Shuofang, they received news that Jia Yao had already set out from the Beihuan royal court and brought this year's tribute.

After returning to Shuofang, Yun Zheng rested for a day, went to Qin Qihu's house for a drink, and then began to deal with various government affairs.

Although he had a cabinet to help him handle government affairs, he still had to handle many government affairs personally.

After handling government affairs for a whole day, Yun Zheng just felt groggy all over. It seemed that there was no part of his body except his brain.

This was even with the help of Ye Zi and Shen Luoyan.

If he were left alone to handle these government affairs, he was afraid that he would die suddenly.

"How come there are so many problems in such a small area like Shuobei and Northwest Protectorate?"

After reviewing another memorial, Yun Zheng rubbed his head tiredly and complained.

"Isn't this a waste of time?"

Ye Zi smiled and said, "Just wait until Shuobei and Northwest Protectorate stabilizes."

"To be honest, these things are quite a headache." Shen Luoyan stood up and came behind Yun Zheng, rubbing his head for him. "If I were to deal with this, I'd probably go crazy."

Although she is also Yun Zheng's deputy, she is more focused on studying.

The main work is still done by Ye Zi and Yun Zheng.

Just like that, she felt a headache.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Ye Zi was used to it, and smiled: "Most of the matters that need to be handled are not easy for the cabinet to handle. How can it not be a headache?"

Yun Zheng couldn't help but nod slightly when he heard this.

Ye Zi hit the nail on the head.

"The cabinet is still too cautious."

Yun Zheng pondered, "In fact, the cabinet can handle some of these things on its own, and just report the handling methods or results in the end."

"We have to do this step by step." Ye Zi said seriously: "Although you delegate power to the cabinet, you can't delegate too much power. Otherwise, once the people in the cabinet collude to deceive the superiors and the subordinates, we may not know many things."

Shuobei adopts a completely new internal affairs system.

They are now basically crossing the river by feeling the stones.

The effectiveness of this internal affairs system can only be determined through step-by-step practice.

If all matters were left to the cabinet at the beginning, the cabinet would likely lose control later on.

"That's true."

Yun Zheng nodded gently and comforted himself: "Take it step by step! Things will get better slowly in the future."

At this time, Shen Kuan hurried over with a letter.

"Your Highness, there is a letter from the Yanhuishan camp."

As he spoke, Shen Kuan handed over the letter.

Yun Zheng took the letter, opened it, glanced at the contents, and couldn't help but smile. He then handed the letter to Ye Zi and Shen Luoyan to check.

"This Yu Shizhong..."

Looking at the contents of the letter, Ye Zi couldn't help but shake his head and smile, "He has a big appetite. He's not afraid that other generals will chop him up!"

Yu Shizhong wanted to keep all the 5,000 war horses that Beihuan presented as tribute in the Yanhuishan camp.

He ate all the meat and didn't leave even a bite of soup for the other generals.

"Who says it's not?"

Yun Zheng also shook his head and smiled, "When I was drinking with Brother Qin yesterday, he told me that almost 30% of the Blood Clothes Army's war horses should be replaced..."

Shen Luoyan smiled, "When Jiayao and the others arrive, I estimate that many generals will write to ask for war horses."

Yun Zheng nodded with deep approval.

Now it is because the news that Beihuan’s tribute is about to arrive has not yet spread.

Once the word gets out, letters asking for war horses will probably come to us like snowflakes.

Ugh!

More wolves but less meat!

There are only a few things like this, and I'm thinking about them all, so it's a difficult problem how to divide them.

"Your Highness, it's time to replace some of our Royal Guards' war horses..."

Shen Kuan laughed dryly and looked at Yun Zheng eagerly.

He had originally been thinking of talking to Yun Zheng about this matter after the war horses were delivered!

Unexpectedly, Yu Shizhong took action first.

In this case, he couldn't just sit and wait any longer.

As the saying goes, whoever is close to the water gets the moon first. As the commander of Yun Zheng's personal guards, if he cannot get a share of the spoils in this horse-stealing war, he will be despised by his brothers in the personal guards.

"..."

The three of them looked at Shen Kuan with dark faces at the same time.

Got it!

There's someone waiting here!

"Your Highness, we really need to replace some of our war horses."

Shen Kuan smiled embarrassedly, "At the beginning of the year, we fought against the northern barbarians. We marched in such cold weather for a long time, and many horses fell ill..."

"Okay, okay!"

Yun Zheng interrupted Shen Kuan, "Let's talk about this later! Let's wait for the 5,000 war horses to arrive first and see what kind of horses they are!"

Damn it!

I haven't even seen the horse's hair yet, but these people are already thinking about it.

"Yes!"

Shen Kuan laughed dryly, bowed and left.

……

Five days later, Yun Zheng led his men to the Yanhuishan camp.

Originally, Yun Zheng only brought Miaoyin and a few hundred guards.

As a result, when Qin Qihu heard that Yun Zheng was going to the Yanhuishan camp, he was afraid that the shameless Yu Shizhong would pick up all the good horses first, so he followed him shamelessly.

When they arrived at the camp at Yanhui Mountain, Jia Yao had also arrived.

Jia Yao brought a lot of people with him on this trip.

In addition to the one hundred guards led by Qi Qige, there were two thousand people.

Fortunately, Jia Yao and the others came with tribute, otherwise Yun Zheng would have thought that she was bringing so many people to eat at the rich man's house!

In addition, most of the wounded they left behind in Beihuan also returned with them, along with two mammoths.

One of them was the one that Yun Zheng had left in Beihuan, and the other was captured by Jia Yao and his team later.

When Yu Shizhong led people out of the camp to welcome them, Jia Yao was also there.

The two hadn't seen each other for several months.

When they met again, they couldn't help but look at each other twice more.

Compared to winter, Jiayao looks better.

However, when I looked up, it seemed that she had more white hair on her head.

In the past, you had to look carefully to see the white hair, but now you can see the white hair on her head at a glance.

"Meet my husband, meet my sister!"

Jia Yao took the initiative to salute Yun Zheng and Miao Yin.

"You're very polite!"

Yun Zheng looked at Jia Yao with a playful look on his face, and said half-jokingly: "Are you cheating on the tribute items?"

When Jia Yao called him "husband", it was basically when she had something to ask of him.

"How dare I!"

Jia Yao shook her head and smiled, her eyes moving as she said, "I must be a little unhappy to have given so many things away at once! As your concubine, I complained to you a few words, you won't blame me, right?"

"That's not the case."

Yun Zheng smiled and said, "Let's go. First, take us to see the war horses you sent as tribute!"

Jia Yao nodded slightly without saying much.

Led by Yu Shizhong, they came to the west side of the camp.

The war horses that came as tribute from Beihuan are all here, guarded by the people brought by Jia Yao.

Only after Yun Zheng and his men took over these war horses did they truly belong to Daqian.

When Yun Zheng was checking these war horses, Yu Shizhong said to Yun Zheng beside him: "I sent people to count them yesterday, and the numbers are correct. In addition, there are more than a thousand mares among these five thousand war horses, and more than half of them should be pregnant with foals. Among the remaining stallions, in addition to geldings, there are fifty excellent stallions..."
