Wen Bufan and Tao Zijie came to the palace treasury, Wen Bufan ordered the treasury to be opened, and passed through three gates in a row before entering the palace treasury.

Wen Bufan and Tao Zijie led people into the treasury, only to see rows of gold bars and silver ingots neatly placed, and there were also some boxes inside, with seals on the boxes.

"Open!" Wen Bufan said.

When these boxes are opened, they are full of jewels!

Hai Yuanguo is really rich! Wen Bufan thought in his heart.

After counting the treasury, Wen Bufan ordered someone to register and make a register, and sent a special person to guard it. Then he left with Tao Zijie.

"You and General Li will count the meritorious personnel who defended the city this time, and then reward them for their meritorious deeds!" Wen Bufan said: "And the fruits that Li Dakui took last time, I have to send someone to compensate for them." In addition, all taxes in the Blue City will be halved this year, and those who have children in the army will be reduced by half again! ”

Tao Zijie nodded and said yes.

"Go ahead, I have something to do, and I'm going out of town for a few days. At most, you can come back in more than a month, and if there is anything in the meantime, you can take care of it all! Wen Bufan said to Tao Zijie.

"What if someone comes to attack?" Tao Zijie asked.

Wen Bufan glanced at Tao Zijie and said, "Hold on!" ”

"My lord! You've just entered the city of La Mer, and your heart is still undecided. Leaving at this moment, if a foreign enemy comes to invade, General Li and I can barely deal with it, but if Nalamblin comes back, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to deal with it! Tao Zijie told the truth.

When Wen Bufan heard this, he thought in his heart that Tao Zijie's meaning was obvious. Although the city of the sea is defended by itself. But after all, Nalamborin has been operating here for many years, and the defenders here are surrounded by forbidden troops. The forbidden army is Nalambolin's private army! At that time, Nalambolin was desperate to flee for his life and left them behind. They will be attached to themselves together with Li Dakui's defenders. But once he leaves and Nalambolin takes the opportunity to come back, will these defenders listen to Tao Zijie and Li Dakui.

Seeing Wen Bufan's hesitation, Tao Zijie took the opportunity to say: "If the lord has something, you can order your subordinates to do it!" ”

Wen Bufan thought for a while and said, "Forget it, I'll deal with the matter here first, and then let's talk about it." ”

In the following days, Wen Bufan began to talk about meritorious deeds.

Formation of a cabinet

He is a scholar and prime minister.

Worship Li Dakui as a hussar general.

Other meritorious ministers were also rewarded for their meritorious deeds, and let Tao Zijie select talents to join the cabinet!

Then the defenders and forbidden forces of the Blue City were readjusted. Li Dakui was appointed as the lieutenant general, commanding the 100,000 defenders of the Sea Blue City. The forbidden army was divided into two battalions, inside and outside, with 30,000 men and horses. The outer battalion was responsible for guarding the outer city of the royal palace, and the inner battalion was responsible for guarding the inner city of the royal palace. They were led by Lin Zichong, the former deputy commander of the forbidden army, and Xi Dazhi, a partial general of the infantry army.

and made Lin Zichong and Xi Dazhi all named Zhonglang generals.

Then Wen Bufan began to reform the government affairs of the city of the blue sea. abolished some harsh policies, vigorously supported agricultural businessmen, and auctioned off all the properties of those high-ranking officials and nobles who had escaped before, and directly transformed them into schools and medical halls if they were not sold. The imperial court paid for people to give lectures and treat the sick.

After the introduction of these series of measures, Wen Bufan's prestige in the Blue City gradually increased!

Hot at this time, far away in Longxi, Nalambolin is in a treat!

Attending this banquet were: Nalan Bolin, King of Haiyuan Kingdom, Xiang Dongjue, Grand Minister of Baoxiang Kingdom, Duan Jinwen, Grand Prince of Nanyue Kingdom, Sima Situ Ying, Grand Sima of Northern Yue, Deng Dee, King of Nanxian of Beihu Kingdom, and Li Shaoquan, Second Prince of Xichi Kingdom.

The banquet was amid laughter and laughter, and it was amicable that it was impossible to see that these countries were still at war before.

Now the banquet has reached the most important part, that is, the host's speech!

Nalamborin cleared his throat, stood up, and said, "Everyone! I invite you to come here today just for one thing! Crusade against rebellion! ”

Nalan Borin looked around and continued: "Everyone knows that a few days ago, someone took advantage of the chaos and colluded with the traitors Tao Zijie and Li Dakui of my Haiyuan Kingdom, and actually took advantage of my absence to occupy the capital of my Haiyuan Kingdom, Hailan City! This makes me angry! The purpose of inviting you here today is to hope that you can help me regain the city of the blue sea! ”

"We're willing to help, but what's in it for us to take it back?" Li Shaoquan, the second prince of Xichiguo, asked directly.

"Well, naturally, you won't be left empty-handed! As long as you help me reclaim the Blue City, I will pay 10,000 taels of gold for each of them! Nalamblin said, "Of course, I only need 50,000 troops each!" ”

Listening to Nalambolin, none of them spoke. After a while, Deng Dee, the Southern Sage King of the Northern Hu Kingdom, opened his mouth and said, "It is said that the reputation of the Haiyuan Kingdom is not very good. As he spoke, Dundee looked at Xiang Dongjue, the great minister of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom.

Xiang Dongjue smiled faintly, took a sip of wine and said: "The last time my country aided Haiyuan Kingdom, not only did I not get the remuneration I said in advance, but I also lost hundreds of treasure elephants, I don't know how King Nalan calculates this account?" ”

As soon as Xiang Dongjue finished speaking, these people looked at Nalambolin together.

Nalan Bolin smiled and said, "This matter is indeed mishandled by me, and I was deceived by the villain at that time!" Right! That's that Tao Zisuke! He said to me, don't give so much, Founder we just said to give three months of taxes, did we say how much, so don't we have the final say on how much to give? I was also confused by him for a while. That's why I will do such a thing, and I hope that Daxiangguo Haihan. As he spoke, he arched his hand at Xiang Dongjue.

Xiang Dongjue snorted lightly and stopped talking.

"Anyway, King Nalan still cashes in first, so that we can explain when we go back, otherwise it's really hard to say about sending troops!" Sima Situ Ying, the National University of North Vietnam, looked at Nalan Bolin and said. Then he said to the others, "Do you say yes or no?" ”

"yes!"

"Indeed!"

As soon as Situ Ying said this, others also nodded yes.

Nalan Bolin laughed and said, "Don't be impatient, everyone, all this gold is in the treasury of the Sea Blue City Palace, everyone, if you don't take back Sea Blue City, how can I give that gold to everyone?" ”

"So you don't have gold!" Li Shaoquan looked at Nalan Borin and asked.

"Yes! Of course I have gold! It's just in the Blue City! Narambolin said.

"In the Blue City, we can just go and get it ourselves, and we can't afford to listen to your orders for the sake of your 10,000 gold!" Xiang Dongjue said in a deep voice.

"Haha! If you didn't have me, no one would have found that gold, and even if you had invaded the Blue City, you would never have found it! Nalamblin looked at the tiger who was very confident and said!
