"Do you think I feel happy?" Wan Ning Hou glared at his son. "The emperor's mind is hard to figure out. We can't risk the lives of our entire family just to prove ourselves."

"Young Marquis, I want to go to the palace to visit Princess Jinghe tomorrow." Yuan Buwei suddenly said in front of everyone, "Her health has recovered well, and I believe she can attend the emperor's birthday banquet this time."

"Bu, Bu Wei, what did you say? Princess Jinghe recovered so quickly?" Marquis Wanning knew that his daughter-in-law was treating Princess Jinghe. Although he did not ask in detail, as a marquis, he naturally knew about the relationship between the Emperor and Princess Jinghe.

"Princess Jinghe has a good physique and cooperates with me, so she recovered quickly." Yuan Buwei smiled and looked at Lu Sui, "Young Marquis, you are always generous, so let Princess Jinghe take the spotlight of this birthday banquet."

"Awei..."

"Don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure of."

After planning for so long, Lu Sui has also stood up, so it's time to close the net.

evening.

Li Yan is back.

"Young Marquis, this is Mu Qing's confession. Ye Shaoqing asked me to show it to you. If you confirm that there is no problem, he will deal with it according to the law."

Lu Sui took the testimony and read it, his brows knitted together: "For my own selfishness, I have done so many wrong things. By the way, have you notified the Mu Mansion?"

"Mr. Mu already knows about it, but I heard that Mrs. Mu fainted after hearing what Mu Qing did. So far, several doctors have been replaced, but none of them have been able to revive her."

"You have brought this upon yourself." Lu Sui sneered, "Tell Ye Shaoqing that there is no problem with his testimony. Li Yan, you should go back to the barracks and ask Xing Zhou to count all the original soldiers of the Mu Mansion."

"Young Marquis, are you thinking..."

"Yes."

Lu Sui nodded: "Before, I couldn't touch them because of Old Lady Mu. Now that they are free from the shackles, should I keep them for the New Year?"

"Yes, many of them took advantage of Mu Qing's support to cheat and form cliques. Moreover, during the training camp, one of them had a stomachache or another had a fever. As a result, they were always the first to rush to the front every time a meal was served. One person could eat the meal of three people. I told them many times, but they just listened with one ear and let it out with the other."

"It's me who made everyone suffer."

"Young Marquis, I don't mean to blame you, I just want to speak up for you. Compared with other generals, you are very sincere to everyone. For example, you are always the first to get the pension in the Swift Wind Battalion. Not to mention, you always think about everyone during the New Year. When the young lady just got married, she started to buy winter clothes and charcoal for the soldiers. When they were delivered to the barracks that day, everyone was very happy. They all said that this winter they would not be woken up by the cold in the middle of their sleep."

Lu Sui felt very uncomfortable after hearing Li Yan's words.

He can use all his talents on the battlefield, but when he turns back to face the tens of thousands of soldiers in the barracks, their daily food and drink alone is a huge amount.

Avi has really been thinking about herself since she married me.

He will spend his whole life to repay this kindness.

"Since you are determined to reorganize the Gale Camp, then you can't keep any of the soldiers from the Mu Mansion. Ask Xingzhou to calculate the subsidy costs so as not to give rise to gossip."

Li Yan nodded: "Understood."

Yuan Buwei, who was standing at the door, heard Li Yan's footsteps and immediately retreated behind the pillar.

After he left, she slowly looked towards the half-open door.

Subsidy costs are another considerable expense.

Yuan Buwei could even hear Lu Sui's sigh.

The next second, she stepped into the room and asked, "What are you thinking about? I can hear you sighing even when I was standing outside the door."

"Oh, nothing."

It’s better not to tell Avi about the military camp matters, lest she asks him to raise money for herself and spend all her family savings.

"I just saw Li Yan go out. It's getting dark. Where is he going?"

"He showed me Mu Qing's testimony. I was afraid that things would get complicated, so I asked him to tell Ye Shaoqing that you don't have to worry about him. He will return to the barracks when he is done."

"Ok."

Yuan Buwei nodded and sat on the edge of the bed: "Didn't I give you some seeds earlier? How are they growing now?"

"At the beginning, I asked Li Yan to go down and reclaim the land for planting. I heard that the growth is good. Awei, thanks to your seeds, we can help the military camp save a lot of money."

"You are injured now. What do the soldiers of the Gale Camp do every day?"

"Train and be ready for battle at any time."

"We can't train every day, right? Besides, it's boring if we train with our own people." Seeing that Lu Sui was listening seriously, Yuan Buwei put forward her own ideas to him, "As the New Year approaches, the mountain bandits will definitely become active. Why don't you let Li Yan form a few teams to fight the bandits, and then set up a few patrol teams to patrol the villages and protect the safety of the people."

"This is the government's business. We have done the work, so what do they do?"

"They are who they are. You did it to build up the righteous image of the Gale Camp in the hearts of the people." Seeing that Lu Sui didn't react, Yuan Buwei pinched his face and said, "I heard what you said to Li Yan. You laid off all the soldiers of the Mu Mansion at once. If we really go to the battlefield, we don't have enough people. How are you going to fight?"

"It's not like we can just start a war..."

"So, you have to let the people see the demeanor of the soldiers of the Swift Wind Battalion, let the people know that the Swift Wind Battalion is a strict military camp that always takes the safety of the people into consideration. Once this reputation is established, will you still worry about not being able to recruit people?"

Lu Sui was stunned for a moment, then a hint of ecstasy flashed in his eyes: "Awei, why didn't I think of it?"

"It's not that you didn't think about it, but you have more important things to consider." Yuan Buwei held Lu Sui's hand and said, "Besides, the emperor is worried that he has no handle to hold you accountable. You can let the soldiers help the people. By then, the reputation of the Gale Battalion will be improved. If you really do something practical, everyone will see it. The emperor can't do anything to you. You can take advantage of this opportunity to restore your body to its best condition as soon as possible."

"Awei, I understand. I will discuss this with Li Yan and Xing Zhou tomorrow." Lu Sui nodded. "By the way, I think Miss Zhang Lian is brave and resourceful. The Swift Wind Camp is in need of manpower right now. If she is willing, she can report to the Swift Wind Camp tomorrow."

"So soon? Aren't you going to test her again?"

"What happened today has shown me her performance. I believe she can achieve something."

Yuan Buwei smiled: "I also think that she will become your right-hand man."

When Yuan Buwei brought this news to Zhang Lian.

Excited Zhang Lian immediately picked up Yuan Buwei and spun around.
