Chapter 420: Clarify No One Will Believe You

After the discussion was over, the ministers left one after another, and only the royal family were left in the imperial study.

Ye Juechen looked at the emperor as if he was hesitant to speak.

"If you are hesitant, just say it if you have something to say." The emperor said impatiently.

Ye Juechen took a breath and then said: "I thought that if I asked Fifth Brother to do this, I'm afraid the result would not be ideal."

Although he thought so in his heart, the emperor was still not happy when he heard this.

"Why, do you think my assignment is questionable?" The emperor narrowed his eyes and asked.

"I don't dare. I just feel that those ministers may not take Fifth Brother to heart." Ye Juechen reminded thoughtfully.

When the emperor heard this, he snorted coldly: "Of course I won't let Xiao Wu face those jackals, tigers and leopards alone."

As he said that, he glanced at Hua Yanxi: "This is your suggestion. It's up to you to assist him. If he has any problems, I will ask you."

Hua Yanxi, who was silent on the side, glanced at the emperor silently.

The job of love is for her.

Hua Yanxi excused herself: "Father, daughter-in-law..."

"I know how many people in the imperial court are lining their own pockets. I promise you that all the money you get from confiscating your house will be used to build the canal. However, the drought is imminent and there is not much time left for you. If you think you

If you are really not up to the task, I can assign someone else to do it, but if you miss this time, you will have to bear the debt."

This is an obvious threat. Based on the guarantee Hua Yanxi made to him before, I think she will not borrow it from others.

Hua Yanxi gritted her teeth and could only hand over her hand: "My daughter-in-law takes orders."

As soon as Hua Yanxi came out of the imperial study room, she looked at Ye Yibai and said angrily: "Why didn't you say anything just now?"

Ye Yibai blinked: "Didn't you ask me not to talk too much after entering the palace, so as not to make the old man angry and fear that he would trip you up?"

Hua Yanxi was furious and clenched her fists: "I regret it. You should have beaten him severely. Sure enough, you shouldn't have sympathy for him."

Ye Yibai smiled and said, "Then I will go in and teach him a lesson?"

"Forget it, it's all over, I'm too lazy to argue with him."

Ye Juechen walked behind the two of them and said leisurely: "I'll leave the rest to you. Wish yourself the best of luck."

Hua Yanxi turned to look at him: "What do you mean, are you planning to draw a clear line?"

"Since when have I been on the same side as you?" Ye Juechen raised his eyebrows.

"It's too late to draw a clear line now. None of those ministers know that you are on the same side as us." Hua Yanxi snorted coldly: "Even if you try to clarify now, no one will believe you."

Ye Juechen pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized and glared at Hua Yanxi: "Did you do it on purpose just now?"

Originally, he was going to leave with the ministers, but Hua Yanxi secretly pulled him, and he took two steps slower, and then he stayed in the palace with them.

Hua Yanxi raised her eyebrows: "You've been misunderstood anyway, why don't you come with me? Besides, those ministers may not be after you. Rather than trying to please both sides, why not choose our boat to make a big move?"

"You want me to offend the civil and military officials of the court with you? What's the benefit to me?" Ye Juechen sneered.

Hua Yanxi pointed to the Imperial Study Room: "Isn't this a benefit? Your father is currently worried about money. If you help him, he may be very happy."

Ye Juechen followed her guidance and looked at the golden door, his thin lips pursed slightly and his eyes a little obscure.
