Chapter 397 Negotiation

What Lan Kexin and the Sixth Prince didn't expect was.

On the second day, everything was calm in the Ye Mansion.

Ye Fei'er has disappeared in the Ye Mansion.

I don't know where he went.

The Sixth Prince put Ye Fei'er behind him.

"Do you still need to treat patients?"

"Well! You guys wait here!"

The Sixth Prince and Xuan Yi were waiting silently in the distance.

Xuanyi was somewhat impressed:

"Master, you rushed out so recklessly, aren't you afraid that Ye Fei'er will kill you?"

The Sixth Prince cast a fierce look over.

"You're eager to change your master. Are you interested in Penglai Island?"

Xuan Yi was speechless. When did he mean this?

"Master, I am completely worried about your safety."

The Sixth Prince squinted his eyes and looked at the natives here.

Just look at their clothes.

You know, people here don't live a rich life.

Ye Feier brought so many people here to garrison.

Every time, we had to rely on buying food from outside to barely feed the soldiers.

He didn't know where Ye Feier's money came from.

He thought of the Queen Mother and Duke Ye.

I thought of Mount Baden.

I feel like I can't come up with a result.

"Go quietly and find out what's going on in Ye Fei'er's granary."

Xuan Yi was puzzled. "Didn't they just buy the food two days ago?"

"Let's go see how much food they bought first."

On the other side, Ye Fei'er was also in the granary.

Although it is called a granary, it is just a few simple houses.

It was specially used for him to store food.

This time, the three ships went out and only carried this little bit of food.

It used to be every six months.

This food is only enough for the soldiers for about one month.

He looked at Xin Ba and asked, "Is there no food in Hanyang City, or do we not have enough silver?"

Xin Ba lowered his head:

"Master, we don't have much silver. If we continue to waste money like this, the Queen Mother and the Duke will no longer give us silver. I'm afraid the soldiers will starve. We have to think of a way."

Ye Feier had a headache.

His weakness is making money.

He had tried to do business to make money and support so many soldiers on his own.

However, he has no idea how to do business.

Xin Ba looked at Ye Feier anxiously.

"Master, should we write a letter to the Queen Mother? Tell her about the situation here. Perhaps she can support..."

Before Xin Ba finished speaking, Ye Feier asked:

"How's the investigation going on?"

Thinking of Ye Qi, Simba whispered:

"Ye Qi has already escaped and has not returned to the Ye family. Right now, the Sixth Prince and the Emperor's men are looking for him. All they need is one crime to convict him."

Thinking of the Sixth Prince on the island.

It’s not that Ye Qi’s crime is impossible to determine.

But the Sixth Prince knew that Lan Kexin was missing.

That's why I don't have time to pay attention to Ye Qi.

Just put him back.

That was the day Ye Qi died.

Ye Feier was having a headache weighing the two sides, not knowing whether to stand against the emperor?

Abandon all this and live an ordinary life.

Seeing that I am so worried.

Xin Ba was a little at a loss.

"Master, right now we can only rely on the Queen Mother. No one else can help us."

Ye Feier asked softly:

"Do you think the Queen Mother can still help us?"

"Yes." Xin Ba said firmly.

Ye Feier sneered:

"Whether she can save the Ye family is still unknown. Do you think anyone has the ability to compete with the emperor? The army? Or the ministers who have surrendered to her?"

Xin Ba stopped talking.

army?

The Queen Mother certainly didn't have it.

The only bit that was left was taken away by the Sixth Prince.

The Queen Mother does not yet have a prince to assist her.

She just wanted to seize the throne and let the Ye family take over.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be so anxious to cooperate with the people of Yue.

This led to the failure.

Seeing Xin Ba silent, what else did Ye Qier not understand?

"Look, even you are not sure, how can I trust them?"

He didn't want to listen to Simba's continued persuasion.

"You don't need to tell me anything else. Right now, the most important thing is the escape of the soldiers on the island. We can't bring them here and let them starve to death, right?"

Xin Ba looked at Ye Feier's embarrassed back.

He suddenly thought of Lan Kexin.

He walked forward quickly.

"Master, we don't know how to make money. We can go ask Miss Lan. I heard that she has many ways, especially ways to make money."

Ye Fei'er looked at him speechlessly.

It’s not that he can’t go find him.

However, he couldn't lose face once he brought it up to Lan Kexin.

He will never be able to hold his head up in front of her for the rest of his life.

It's even more impossible for him and her to be together.

Seeing Ye Feier's deeply furrowed brows.

Xin Ba knew his dilemma.

He reminded her, "Master, even if you don't bring this up, your future with Miss Lan is very bleak."

Ye Feier glared, this was exactly the pain in his heart.

Simba actually said it so bluntly.

Xin Ba mustered up his courage and said, "Master, unless you have the ability to trap Miss Lan here for the rest of her life."

Obviously, the answer is already obvious.

He can't even support these subordinates, how can he control Miss Lan?

Not to mention a lifetime.

Seeing Ye Fei'er still hesitating.

"Master, instead of doing this, why don't you go and discuss with Miss Lan what the future of these soldiers should be?"

Thinking of the harsh words he said yesterday and the way he left.

Ye Feier gritted her teeth and said, "If I don't go, I won't believe it. I can't afford to support these people."

Xin Ba had to remind him:

"Master, that's 50,000 or 60,000 troops, not just 5 or 6 people. They can be fed with just some food."

Ye Feier paused as she left.

Then he left quickly.

He returned to his study and scribbled on paper.

My mind is in a mess and I can't find any clue.

On the other side, the Sixth Prince also received the news that Xuan Yi had inquired about.

He told her everything about the situation on the island.

"Master, Ye Fei'er no longer has the money to support these soldiers. What do you think will happen to him?"

The Sixth Prince narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the Ye Mansion.

"There are three paths to take, and it depends on which one he chooses."

Xuan Yi was puzzled: "In this situation, there are still three options?"

"Well! Actually, to put it bluntly, there are only two options. Either he surrenders to the Queen Mother and continues to collaborate with the enemy and sell out the country.

Or all these soldiers should be handed over to the imperial court and let the imperial court take charge of them.

Or he could just take his soldiers and defect to other countries."

Obviously the last one is impossible.

Who would accept other soldiers who surrendered to him for no reason?

Even if they reluctantly accepted it, when the war broke out, these soldiers would be sent to the front line to die.

They are soldiers, and they are human beings too. They have their own thoughts and can figure this out.

The Sixth Prince looked in the direction of Lan Kexin.

"You watch here, I'll go find Ye Fei'er..."
