"Respectfully sending off the princess ~"
After she left, Yan Wuzhan began to take charge of the rest of the matters.
"In order not to harm the innocent and to prevent the citizens from suffering from the war, I request that West Ridge apologize to the people of Shan Nation in front of everyone and agree not to initiate any war for the next five years …"
Yan Wuzhan said a lot of things before he called for people to bring back those Western Ridge envoys who were locked up.
In the end, the agreement was reached. The West Ridge Nation took out three cities and 1.3 million gold taels as ransom, while the Prince of Xi Ling, Xiao Shaolong, stayed behind to act as the protons.
He had to spend an entire day to deal with these complicated matters. After the West Ridge dweller had left, he once again began to distribute the things that he could.
From morning until evening:
"1.3 million gold taels, 300 thousand gold taels, the remaining one million gold taels, compensate the Shanyang City with 100 thousand silver, four hundred thousand gold taels … For the relief of disasters everywhere, 200 thousand gold taels … For the repair of the city, the remaining 300 thousand gold taels will be handed over to the Emperor for his own disposal!"
"Battle King, let's eat."
The eunuchs had already prepared supper for them, and of course, this was also ordered by Yan Wuzhan.
"Go up to the hall and eat while standing. This prince still wants to return to the fiefdom to rescue the disaster, when will I have time to eat?"
"Eat standing, eat standing …"
They had been standing for a whole day and had never been to court for so long, but in front of Yan Wuzhan, they did not dare to be careless at all. They remembered every single word that he said, and some people even added ink dozens of times.
"Mm …" "Sirs, please sit on the ground. There is not much left to do. Who will be in charge of the relief operations in the two areas affected by the disaster? They will be personally assigned by the Minister of Wei, three cities …"
"Milords, do you have any suggestions regarding those three cities?"
Yan Wuzhan was like the boss of the devil now, he didn't care whether Ning'er was tired or not, he just wanted to get these things organized and go back to his own fiefdom as soon as possible. He would have to deal with these matters for at least a few days before he could complete them.
Therefore, he had to work overtime, even letting everyone sit and eat on the floor. Of course, he had his own seat. There was also a table in front of Dongfang Ning, which was just right for him to sit and eat.
All the officials thought to themselves: Battle King doesn't have anything to do, so when it comes to meddling in affairs, the officials won't be able to get even the slightest bit of rest.
After finishing their meal, many people sat on the ground in low spirits. They were getting old and had to sit for a while after standing for several hours. However, Battle King didn't seem to have the intention to call for a next court meeting.
Alright, everyone go back and draft out the plan for the three cities, hand it in tomorrow morning, and look at all of you, you guys don't look like officials at all. Do you guys know how the soldiers on the battlefield will not rest for half a month after they leave?
Battle King was angry, so the air immediately became thinner. Everyone's spirits were back up. If they don't deal with this master's temper first, what if he directly killed someone?
Everyone treated him with both respect and fear, "This subject is incompetent!"
"Withdraw!"
This young man was not an emperor, but his aura was far more imposing than an emperor's. Their entire bodies and minds were nervous for the entire day, and in front of Battle King, they were afraid that their words would not meet his expectations, that if they said it out loud, it would disobey his wishes, and that they would … In short, he was very scared, but he didn't know the reason.
"Wei Xiang, this old man will be going back first. I need a cup of tea to calm my nerves."
After a long time, everyone finally said their goodbyes and went back home. They secretly compared the emperor to Yan Wuzhan, and the result was: Battle King was more like an emperor.

Imperial Consort Cen was already on the verge of tears. Now that the matter about her son had been exposed, she cried and said that she would never let Yan Wuhui off!
Therefore, she did not go to the emperor to complain. Instead, she sent people to secretly watch Yan Wuhui. Her son could not live, so Yan Wuhui had to be buried with him.
However, she forgot that for a sinister person like Yan Wuhui, things would always happen before her. At this moment, he had to kill everyone who knew his secret, and only if he made it so that these people would never be able to speak, would he be safe.
"Niangniang, this servant saw that the fourth prince went to the Purple Smoke Palace right away!"
"What relationship does he have with that slut? Why is he going to the Purple Smoke Palace so late at night?"
"I don't know. The Purple Smoke Palace is heavily guarded and this servant doesn't dare to get too close. But I saw him fly in through the back courtyard wall when I entered. Niangniang, there must be something unspeakable …"
"What?! Something like that happened?" Imperial Consort Cen stood up from her seat in shock. Men were not allowed to enter the backyard of the palace, even if that person was a prince. There had to be a conspiracy!
"Empress, should we report this to the Emperor?"
"How can you report that the Imperial Guard is in Wu Sou's hands? You have to think of a way to find out who sent the letter to my brother, but he hasn't come back yet. Go and guard him, and see where he went!"
Imperial Consort Cen could only rely on her brother, Cen Wei. If she wanted to protect Third Prince, then she had to do a lot of things in advance. Otherwise, after the fourth prince succeeded, no one in the court would be able to compete with him …
"Don't go anywhere!" The fourth prince's voice suddenly rang out in her palace before he appeared at the door with a sinister smile.
Without waiting for Imperial Consort Cen to speak, he walked in arrogantly and found a seat for himself. His actions shocked Imperial Consort Cen. This person had completely changed. Not only was he rude to her, but he also gave off a terrifying aura.
"No regrets …" What are you going to do? "
Yan Wuhui raised his head and looked straight into her eyes like a prey. He stared at the woman in front of him. If it wasn't for her poisoning him, his mother wouldn't have died so tragically. Today …
No, today was not the right time. We can talk about this after Yan Wuzhan had gone to the feudal fiefdom. Right now, we should delay her and make her not move. Let her be willing to do the last thing for us, otherwise, it will be even more troublesome.
"Hahaha, Empress, what can I do? I came here today to discuss something with you. Could it be that the Empress doesn't want to save Third Imperial Brother?"
"You unfilial son of a wolf's ambition, I have truly misjudged you. Why didn't I let you go with your mother that time? Leave, I won't believe you anymore!"
Cen Ya knew that this person was no longer the same person. Even if she were to beat him up, he would only lower his head and admit his wrongs. He had grown up, and the only reason why he approached them was to use his son as a stepping stone.
