【With the Finance Minister fainting once more, Ye Yu couldn’t help but frown.】
【This small gesture was imdiately noticed by his top lackey, Sun Longhai.】
【He quickly requested that the Finance Minister retire due to old age.】
【How could one debate state affairs when constantly falling into a coma?】
【At the sa ti, he declared his full support for Ye Yu’s military campaign.】
【If they were defeated, as the Pri Minister, he would take the lead in donating all his assets.】
【These remarks left everyone stunned.】
【They had seen land concessions before, but never had they seen soone offer their wealth as compensation.】
【This kind of rule is quite explosive even if you look at the whole world.】
【The ministers were left dumbfounded, unsure of what to say.】
【Ye Yu slowly stood up and announced the establishnt of the Jinyiwei (Embroidered Uniform Guard) to supervise the officials.】
【Anyone caught embezzling or plotting rebellion would be executed on the spot, and their property confiscated!】
【For now, the Jinyiwei would be led by Sun Longhai!】
【After delivering the second decree, Ye Yu walked straight out of the main hall.】
【Sun Longhai, anwhile, was radiating a formidable aura.】
【Standing alone at the front of the ministers, he coldly said: I would like to remind all colleagues here.】
【In the future, there should be no more dissenting voices against His Majesty during court sessions.】
【Otherwise, you will definitely lose the chance to attend court.】
【A blatant threat, a naked threat!】
【So astute individuals had already guessed that the newly established Jinyiwei might be Ye Yu’s weapon.】
【But they never expected Sun Longhai to openly threaten them here.】
【Was it already so brazen?】
【In such a situation, the ministers could only bow and comply, respectfully following the Pri Minister’s advice!】
【Three months later.】
【Hundreds of thousands of troops were ready and waiting.】
【The thousand accompanying cultivators were also prepared.】
【Civil and military officials stood in two rows, undaunted by the scorching sun.】
【They gathered outside the city, just to await one person’s arrival.】
【Monts later.】
【The roar of dragons filled the air.】
【Four enormous dragons pulled the dragon carriage, soaring through the sky, creating a surge of air waves.】
【Ye Yu descended from the dragon carriage and looked at the hundreds of thousands of soldiers.】
【Gathering spiritual energy, he announced: Perhaps many of you don’t know why we are fighting this war!】
【Let tell you, the reason is simple: it’s for money!】
【If we win, there will be land, money, food, and won!】
【Your children will be born into prosperity!】
【Your parents will beco landowners!】
【I don’t want to belabor encouraging words.】
【So say I’m just a spendthrift emperor who throws money around!】
【That’s right, I am indeed like that. I give out money!】
【With a wave of Ye Yu’s large sleeve, hundreds of large chests filled with silver were brought to the scene.】
【Before the battle even began, every soldier received a large sum of money.】
【The cultivators were given spirit stones!】
【Looking at the heavy items in their hands, everyone was ecstatic.】
【The cheers of “Long live!” filled the air.】
【Previously, as soldiers, they only ever got promises from their generals!】
【But Ye Yu? He directly gave them real rewards.】
【How could they not be excited?】
【Watching the silver being distributed, the newly appointed Finance Minister’s face turned pale, his figure swaying.】
【He finally understood why the previous minister often fainted.】
【With money being handed out like this, how could the treasury possibly endure?】
【Once all the silver and spirit stones were distributed, Ye Yu felt a surge of spiritual energy pouring into him!】
【At that mont, he fully advanced to the mid-stage of the Integration Realm.】
【It should be said, having the innate Prodigal Sacred Body as a talent was incredibly satisfying.】
【Moreover, this dreamscape provided Ye Yu with an excellent platform.】
【He was bound to soar to new heights!】
【In high spirits, Ye Yu raised his arm and declared: No need for more words, just rember, I only know how to give out money.】
【For those going to battle, if you win, the money will be doubled and given on the spot!】
【The hundreds of thousands of soldiers cheered once more.】
【At this mont, the army’s morale was at its peak.】
【Among the crowd, a female general with a veiled face slightly squinted her fierce eyes.】
【Her na was Huangfu Baizhi.】
【Her father was Huangfu Ying, the man whose residence was bought by Ye Yu with ten thousand spirit stones during his ti as a prince.】
【Huangfu Baizhi gazed at the figure in the golden robe ahead.】
【She was slightly dazed.】
【She really couldn’t understand Ye Yu.】
【A prince who only knew how to squander money defeated all his brothers and ascended to the throne.】
【She had thought Ye Yu was rely pretending to be a spendthrift during his ti as a prince to hide his talents.】
【Perhaps he would change once he beca emperor.】
【But the series of decrees that followed proved.】
【This new emperor was purely and simply fond of throwing money around.】
【Such a massive sum of money being thrown out would indeed boost morale.】
【But it also posed a significant burden on the treasury.】
【Despite this, the joy on Ye Yu’s face did not seem like a disguise.】
【What is this man really thinking?】
【A mont later, the army set out.】
【Ye Yu watched their departing figures without hurrying to leave.】
【Sun Longhai quietly stepped forward.】
【In a low voice, he said: Your Majesty, recently the Jinyiwei have discovered thirty-two officials guilty of corruption. There are also eight officials and the Fifteenth Prince Ye Anming who are closely involved and plotting treason. What should we do about this?】
【Ye Yu replied calmly: Confiscate the officials’ property, and the Fifteenth Prince, due to a sudden illness, will unfortunately pass away.】
【With just a few words, he decided the fate of dozens of people.】
【This made Sun Longhai feel relieved.】
【Indeed, although His Majesty appears spendthrift and unpredictable, he has a grand strategy in mind.】
【When it cos to being ruthless, he never hesitates.】
【This is how the imperial throne can be secured.】
【Sun Longhai nodded in agreent and was about to leave when Ye Yu spoke again: The confiscated property from those officials should be given to the people as another distribution of money. The reason is, I am happy today!】
【Sun Longhai was instantly covered in black lines.】
【Your Majesty, can you not save any money and avoid being so extravagant?】
【Sun Longhai sighed and began carrying out the orders.】
【The people receiving the second wave of money were almost overjoyed to the point of being dazed.】
【What a divine emperor, always giving out money. Such a habit was simply too wonderful.】
【In the future, they would definitely support any decree from Ye Yu unconditionally.】
【After all, who wouldn’t like such a good emperor?】
【Many households even began setting up longevity tablets for Ye Yu at ho, praying day and night for his long life.】
【Three years later, the Great Yong Dynasty’s army, with unstoppable montum, reached the outskirts of the Great Xia capital.】
【Every soldier’s face showed no sign of distress, only excitent.】
【Three years, a full three years.】
【Every ti they captured a city, Ye Yu’s cleanup teams would appear on ti.】
【They would strip the city of all its wealth and then distribute it according to their military achievents.】
【This arrangent ant that each of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers had amassed a considerable fortune.】
【Not only could they afford to marry when they returned ho, they could also beco landowners.】
【Under such circumstances, they no longer saw the cities as their goal, only the wealth.】
【So were already calculating in their minds how much money they could get from capturing the royal capital.】
【In the center of the army, inside the tent.】
【Huangfu Baizhi was carefully studying the map, contemplating the thod for the siege.】
【At this mont, a sharp voice suddenly ca from outside.】
【The Emperor has arrived!】
