”I came here specifically to see you. You have been in the capital for a while, why haven't you come to find me? But did she come here without telling 'home'?

Zhu Guanliang found him noisy, ”How did you get in?”

The man crossed his legs as he looked at Ye Zichen, ”You have your methods, so I naturally have mine. I can see that your injuries aren't light, do you really not need me to help you?”

He walked over and stood behind Zhu Guanliang, and gently reached behind his waist, ”A man who is injured in this place can't not take it seriously.”

Zhu Guanliang grabbed his hand and pulled it back. Hearing a miserable scream, she finally opened her eyes, ”I'm very well.”

”Good, good, good. You're very good. Let me go first. Don't you know how much strength you have?”

”This is the General's Estate, don't come look for me here if you have no business in the future.”

The man looked at him ruefully. ”You didn't tell me even if you came. If it wasn't for my family letter, I wouldn't have known you were here. You've been here for quite some time, have you gotten anything?”

”Nope.”

”Really?”

Zhu Guanliang looked at him seriously, ”What do I need to report to you for?”

Being stared at like that, the man felt a chill run down his spine. He immediately shrunk back and said, ”I'm at the Fanghua Pavilion on the west side of the city. If you have anything to help me with, come and find me.”

Zhu Guanliang did not reply.

In this situation, his silence was a tacit agreement. The man let out a breath of relief and opened the window, preparing to leave.

”Jiang Shi.”

Just as he crossed the window sill, Zhu Guanliang suddenly called out his name.

”Huh?” His heart was thumping, and he felt that this was definitely not a good thing.

”Don't tell anyone at home about my injury.”

It was a secret. He was shocked and wondered why it was like this. ”Don't worry, I know.”

General's Estate were not very well guarded, maybe there were only the inner and outer guards, and the guards gave people an opportunity to change shifts, this was how Jiang Shi came in.

Zhou Leping did not need any guards, she was too confident, and felt that no one could kill her on her territory, so most of the guards were only used on Zhou Leqi and Zhou Lean.

Zhu Guanliang believed that her way of doing things would cause trouble sooner or later. If he wanted to, killing her would be as easy as flipping his hand.

There was no time to delay the collection of donations. When she was busy, Qi Si would run and break a leg, and she would be the one to announce the news of the soldiers being hired, the soldiers' complaints and anger would be directed at her. She was even prepared to throw away the vegetables, after all, it was all just a matter of crossing the river and destroying the bridge.

There were four criteria for abolishing, the old, the weak, the disabled, some of the older soldiers in the army, and others who were seriously injured and sick, none of them were left, but they were all few in number, the remaining people to be abolished were the only sons of their families, so she passed down the criteria. Qi Si took her hand and quickly returned to the camp to supervise.

She took the blame for the emperor, but she did not complain at all. However, she had to settle the matter of the military pay before Qi Si returned.

Yesterday, she asked the emperor for his army's salary to be returned to her, but today, she raised it again, and then said before Lin Jing could even open his mouth, ”Soldiers protect their families, no matter how tough it is, there has never been a single complaint. This subject knows that the treasury of the Sky Disaster Realm is empty, so this subject has thought of a way to raise the army's salary.”

Zhao Shiqian became interested, ”What way?”

”Fundraising.” As she spoke, her eyes looked at Lin Jing, ”Naturally, as the Chief General, this subject is willing to do my best to supplement my military salary. The more you donate, the more you'll depend on the wishes of the adults. ”

Zhao Shiqian followed Zhou Leping's gaze and looked at Lin Jing, and only took a glance to understand what she meant. After muttering to himself for a while, he nodded, ”We feel that this method is not bad, what about Lin Xin Qing?”

Lin Jing never thought that Zhou Leping would come up with such a method to collect military pay.
