Although Jiang Ruan was a little surprised why he left suddenly, she would not waste her time on it. Now that the Xia family has collapsed, she didn't know what Ye Li was thinking at the moment? She smiled slightly, but a gleam of joy slowly floated in her heart: Ye Li, just wait, wait to see the great cause of your family and country slowly, slowly, slowly be destroyed in my hands.

In the Eighth Prince's Mansion, Ye Li showed a dejected expression for the first time, the teacup in front of him had already been tipped over, it was obvious that the master had just sent out a burst of anger.

"Your Highness, calm down." Seeing the master like this, all the staff members stepped forward to persuade: "Although the Xia family has collapsed, it is not all lost. After all, the fifth prince has not made much movement now. Your Highness, don't be angry. body, so that the green hills are not afraid of no firewood."

"What do you know!" Ye Li's face sank like water: "A Xia family, this hall is not so depressed, this hall is angry that after so long, the people behind it have not been found out, a bunch of trash!" He said He was a little anxious, and there was panting in his tone. The staff members looked at each other in blank dismay, all of them dared not show their enthusiasm.

Ye Li himself sent someone to kill the Xia family and his son in order to avoid future troubles. Such a move is tantamount to cutting off his own arm. Although he kept saying that the Xia family was not important, Ye Li had to go through many things after so many years. Xia Fu's hand to complete. This is a good knife that is easy to use and is used to. Seeing that the great cause of seizing the throne is close at hand, it is abhorrent to him to change a knife temporarily. What's more, the emperor confiscated all the wealth of the Xia family, which means that all the silver he could get from the Xia family every year is now gone.

From then on, where did the money to win over officials come from?

What's even more disturbing is that this time everything was planned to be perfect, but something went wrong in the middle. On the surface, it seemed that Xia Jun and Jiang Chao were not doing well, but Ye Li knew in his heart that there was nothing wrong with the city's garrison. There must be other reasons for the sudden arrival, but he didn't know what the reason was. He had inquired about it, but unfortunately the official was a piece of iron and couldn't be pried open, maybe he really didn't know anything. There must be someone behind the scenes to control this matter, as long as he thinks that this person is so cunning and keeps acting like he is in the urn, Ye Li feels shuddering.

All along, he has maintained a gentle and refined attitude, even if he does cruel things, the enemy is open and the other is covert, and he has always been careful every step of the way. But I don't know when, everything will be blocked, Ye Lang's death, He Yi's death, Xia family's downfall, Chen Guifei's loss of power, I don't know when, all his advantages are gone. It was as if an invisible hand was pushing all this, as if it was coming for him alone. He was in the light, but others were in the dark, as if they regarded him as a prey, and lured him into a trap step by step.

Ye Li had always planned with patience, and for the first time he felt anxious. A series of events were like a boulder, disrupting his calm heart.

Ye Li's smartest staff looked at him worriedly. Ye Li has always walked more prudently than others, but now his mind is in a mess, which is a big taboo. Once the mind is disturbed, it is easy to make mistakes. If someone is really manipulating all this, Ye Li's mistake, that person will definitely not let it go...

Ye Li's face showed a little irritability. He had already sent many people to investigate, but they couldn't find anything. How powerful is the person behind it to hide it so deeply? Originally, only he and Ye Hua had the chance to seize the heir apparent, but at some point, the emperor began to value the thirteenth prince Ye Pei. Originally, he thought that Ye Pei's status was low and he didn't have the support of his mother's family. No matter what, he didn't have the qualifications to compete with him for the position of crown prince, but now he felt otherwise. However, even giving him the crown prince Fu Liu Min, this is not a good sign.

Seeing that Ye Li's expression was changing, and he looked more and more gloomy, the staff hurriedly comforted him: "Your Highness, don't worry too much. No matter how powerful that man is, at least we still have the 800 cars of military pay. As long as there is this military salary, His Highness will not Lose."

Military pay? Ye Li gradually calmed down, thinking about the military salary, the depression gradually dissipated a little. That's right, he's still not considered a loser. He still has the 800 carts of military pay. As long as he has the military pay and sends it to the Tianjin Kingdom, he can also get most of the benefits. It will take some time for the Xia family's money to be used to raise military pay again. He may not necessarily be the loser in this war. Although Jin Yiwei cannot be wiped out, Jin Yiwei is not guaranteed to win. Now the military salary is being transported non-stop through the secret road to the post station outside the capital. As long as it arrives at the post station, the 800 carts of military salary have nothing to do with Jin Yiwei.

Gathering his mind, Ye Li was about to call someone to ask about the military salary, when he saw a guard running in, his expression completely flustered, and he said loudly: "Your Highness, it's not good, something happened, something happened Already!"

Ye Liteng stood up from his seat all of a sudden, his heart beat fast for a moment, and he stared at the guards without moving: "What happened?"

"Military pay, military pay—" The guard's voice was almost crying: "The military pay is gone—"

With a sound of "pa", Ye Li's teacup fell to the ground.

...

Different from the scene of chickens and dogs jumping around in the Eighth Prince's Mansion, a certain place is full of joy at the moment.

Jin Sanyi sat on the ground, patted the dust on his clothes, and said: "Young Madam is really clever, so you can think of a way to snatch food from the tiger's mouth. If I were the gentle and gentle prince, I would have been hanged by a rope long ago." You can't even compare to a boudoir, what a hero!"

Jinsi shook his head and said: "What kind of boudoir girl, I think most men in this world can't compare to her. Ye Li picked the young lady as an opponent, and it was bad luck for eight lifetimes. Even the emperor's thoughts were taken into account I’m afraid that you would not have the guts to have that idea.”

When Luzhu heard the two people say this, she immediately showed a smug smile, puffed her chest out and said, "That's natural, my girl is the best, although it can't be said that everything is in the palm of her hand, at least she wants to do something. Things can definitely be done. My girl is not only smart, but also beautiful. Looking at the capital, who can compare to the beauty of the girl? Whoever marries my girl is really a treasure!"

"You sound as smart as you are when you speak." Jin Er on the side walked over and tapped Luzhu's head with one hand: "It's just that although the young lady is smart and beautiful, it's a pity that the maid beside her is not very good." As he spoke, he purposely looked Luzhu up and down: "Hey, whoever marries you is really unlucky."

"Dengtuzi—" Luzhu immediately frowned, "Who are you talking about?"

The two were fighting and fighting, completely ignoring the narrow faces of the people around them. This is also a secret path, but it is not Ye Li's secret path. Jiang Ruan had ordered before, to send people to guard the entrance of Ye Li's secret road, and once the 800 chariots of military pay arrived, they would send people to stop Ye Li's people and kill them. Jin Yiwei's job is to kill people, so he is naturally familiar with the road. Using Ye Li's secret way to send the general's salary out of the city, but instead of sending it to another post station, he went to the secret way in Jinyiwei.
