"It's indeed a bit unfair to do this, but the treasury is empty right now, what else can I do?"

"If I have a better way, I won't do this." Ren Hao spread his hands helplessly, and told Chen He that if he didn't do this, the consequences would be very serious.

Not to mention the consequences of being held accountable if he fails to complete the task, the first problem is the internal strife caused by the empty treasury.

Now the war against Wei continues and has become a deep quagmire. At various border checkpoints, supplies and food are in short supply and military pay cannot be paid. In addition to the surrounding countries eyeing the throne covetously, princes from all over the country are also secretly eyeing the throne.

Once the national treasury could no longer allocate money, Gu Han would have perished in civil strife before being conquered by Wei.

By then, countless lives will be lost and rivers of blood will flow.

"If this is what you want to see and the life that the people expect, I can stop here."

"Anyway, I can pack up and run away. I can live wherever I go." Ren Hao said with a thoughtful tone.

"I am too shallow." Chen Yin quickly bowed and apologized. This was the result he least wanted to see.

All he could hope for was that his sister could live a carefree life in a peaceful environment.

Wuming next to him was also nodding secretly, and he admired Ren Hao more and more in his heart. No wonder he was favored and appreciated by both the emperor and Princess Wenyan.

His long-term and profound vision seemed to be able to see through and know everything.

Fortunately, he is in ancient China, not in another country.

If it were in another country, it would definitely be the greatest enemy of ancient China, or even the entire world.

But besides being thankful, it is also a bit regrettable that such a capable person failed to be loyal to Your Majesty and fulfill his ambitions. It is really a pity.

"It's getting late, so I'll go back first."

"Everything went according to my plan."

After Ren Hao stood up and gave his instructions, he took a carriage back to the capital.

However, when he returned to the mansion in the carriage, he saw an acquaintance sitting outside the mansion, eating a sand apple in his hand.

This person was Wen Yan, who sneaked out of the palace in disguise.

"Mr. Wen Yan, why are you sitting outside my house?" Ren Hao asked puzzledly as he got out of the car.

"I just want to see you alone and don't want to disturb your family." Wen Yan stood up and hid the remaining sand apples in his hand into his sleeves.

She has been craving for sour food all the time lately, and doesn't want any other flavors at all. Even the smell of cooking fumes or greasy food will make her feel uncomfortable.

After Li Mu came over for diagnosis, he found out that she was getting closer to giving birth, so she was becoming more and more acid-loving.

The reason for this acidophilia is that the enlarged uterus compresses the digestive organs, resulting in insufficient gastric motility and enzyme production, and eating sour food can promote digestion and secretion.

Li Mu's suggestion was to let Wen Yan find an excuse to rest and take care of her pregnancy, and all the affairs of the court should be temporarily handed over to the prime minister and the ministers of various ministries to handle.

But Wen Yan was still worried and could only keep postponing it.

In order to hide her growing belly, she wore clothes that were wider and larger.

Originally, Wen Yan wanted to use the Anyang case to get Ren Hao to enter the court, so that he could check and balance Prime Minister Zhao Ping'an, and she could also find a reason to give birth to a child with peace of mind.

But Ren Hao didn't appreciate it at all.

And she came to see Ren Hao again today, still to allow her to enter the court.

Ren Hao heard the hidden meaning in Wen Yan's words, so he sat on the steps next to him and asked, "Master Wen, since you want to see me alone, is this a business or a personal matter?"

If it is official business, then he is here for the emperor's sake, and his purpose is definitely to allow himself to serve as an official in the court.

If it is a private matter, then she came for herself. As for her purpose, it is not known for the time being.

"Both public and private." Wen Yan's answer was ambiguous.

This made Ren Hao laugh, but Wen Yan's face suddenly turned dark.

She first gave Ren Hao a warning and said, "Ren Hao, my brother trusts you so much, why do you want to betray him?"

"Betrayal? How did I betray your brother? I am not your brother's subordinate. What's wrong with me taking in a few retainers to help me look after my house, or hiring a teacher to teach my family members and servants how to read?"

"This doesn't seem to constitute betrayal, right?" Ren Hao said without panic, and with reasoning.

"Haha, it seems that in addition to taking in Wu Chu, you also have a strategist named Cao?"

"As far as I know, this strategist named Cao is in ancient Wei." Wen Yan suddenly sneered.

Ren Hao's hair suddenly stood on end, as if there were spies in the mansion.

"You took in Wu Chu Cao De, a deserter from the front line."

"I can forgive the Xu Zhu incident, but you sent Cao De to the ancient Wei Dynasty and secretly took in the brother-in-law who escaped from the army without handing him over to the government for punishment. This is a betrayal to my brother."

"So, are you worthy of my brother's trust in you and the mansion he rewarded you with?" Wen Yan stood up and glanced at the plaque on the door.

"I'm sorry for your brother's trust, so you can kill me if you want or cut me into pieces if you want." Ren Hao lay on the ground without any fear, looking like he was ready to do whatever you wanted.

After all, if the emperor really wanted to kill him because of these things, there would be no time for Wen Yan to come find him. It would have been the general who led people to arrest him long ago.

Seeing Ren Hao's dead pig-like look that was not afraid of boiling water, Wen Yan felt angry and reluctant.

I was so angry that I really wanted to kill Ren Hao and be done with it. Although this guy is capable, he cannot be loyal to me.

What made her reluctant was not the baby in her belly, but Ren Hao's ability.

Wen Yan wanted to kill Ren Hao every time, but when he thought of the disloyal ministers and idiots in the court, he couldn't bear to do it.

If Ren Hao were killed, I'm afraid there would never be another person as extraordinary as Ren Hao in the world.

It's really weird and annoying!!!

"My brother has chosen to forgive you for your betrayal. He hopes that you can work with him to achieve your ambitions."

"To realize the ambition that many previous emperors failed to realize, to unify the country and create a prosperous Han Dynasty!!!" Wen Yan spoke passionately, hoping to arouse the ambition and resonance in Ren Hao's heart.

What a great opportunity to create a prosperous Han Dynasty together.

If it were someone else, they would definitely resonate with it and agree to it right away.

But who is Ren Hao?

He came from the modern era and he has long lost these resonances.

After all, their former boss had painted a rosy picture for them and made many passionate speeches to get them to resonate with him.

But what happens after resonance? They become nothing more than cattle and horses, not even human beings.

It's so hard to escape the fate of being a beast of burden, but why don't you hurry up and enjoy your life? Why do you want to continue to be a beast of burden? Just to be praised in the history books.

"Feel sorry."

"I really can't do it." Ren Hao shook his head and strongly denied all his abilities.

He was not that outstanding, it was just that the emperor overestimated him.

To create the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, the emperor and his ministers should work together, instead of asking him to shoulder this responsibility together with the emperor.
