Seeing this, Ji Tianxing said in a deep voice, "Since no one has any suitable ideas, I have no choice but to take Ye Shangshu's suggestion, but everything needs to be done slowly. The pressure from the Ministry of Punishment."

"It's just that I should be responsible for the expenses of the town capital. It's impossible for the hired guards to stay in Tiancheng. Find a place outside Tiancheng, or other places. It depends on the situation."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It turns out that Ji Tianxing didn't intend to make this matter too big. As long as Ji Tianxing doesn't help Ye Wudao, how many hired guards can Ye Wudao support?

If the number of strong men is not enough, how can we 'share the worries' for the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment?

To put it simply, it is called sharing worries. To be more specific, it is to share their interests.

As long as their interests are not too much, although they will still object, the voice of opposition will not be so strong, nor will it arouse too many waves.

In short, to sum up, Ji Tianxing gave Ye Wudao the legitimate right to let Ye Wudao and Ji Youlan have suitable reasons to develop their own power. As for what they can achieve in the end, it depends on their own abilities.

What Ji Tianxing can do is just legitimate rights and Ye Wudao's safety guarantee. After all, all the imperial guards in the palace are assigned to Ye Wudao.

The court meeting continued, but it was obvious that Ye Wudao's status was already different, to the point where he was comparable to several cabinet elders in the imperial court.

After the court meeting ended, Ye Wudao came to the Six Emperors' Mansion, Liu Zhenyun and other Ji Youlan's confidantes also followed, but this time the atmosphere seemed a bit depressed.

After everyone was seated, Liu Zhenyun said to Ye Wudao sullenly, "Ye Shangshu, Palace Master Ye! I haven't told everyone about your performance in the court today, and everyone is frightened!"

The faces of the people were also not very good. Although Ye Wudao's status had been improved, they did not get any tangible benefits. On the contrary, it was because they might be suppressed by Ji Kong and the others' forces on a warship.

They had never endured this kind of pressure before. After all, it was Ji Kong and Ji Qingwu who fought fiercely, and the two forces did not pay too much attention to them.

Ji Youlan remained silent, drinking tea slowly, as if she didn't want to care about anything.

Ye Wudao saw Liu Zhenyun's aggressiveness, he showed a smile, and said, "Liu Shangshu, and colleagues, don't be angry, don't you understand the meaning of the Holy One?"

Liu Zhenyun thought for a while, and then asked, "You mean, what does the Holy Majesty want you to do? However, the Holy Majesty didn't want to suppress the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment. Do you know that once something goes wrong with the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment, it will be very difficult. Trouble?"

Ye Wudao said, "Gradually, we still have to control the power in Shenxia, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of War. The resources and power they have are scarce for us."

"That's why, isn't the reason why His Highness wants to win the support of the frontier generals? Isn't it just to prepare for possible changes in the future?"

Liu Zhenyun snorted coldly, "It's an enemy of both sides. Fortunately, you can figure it out. You can either only suppress one side or be more conservative, but you want to take everything from both sides!"

"This is the deterrent force I want!" Ye Wudao turned cold, and said with confidence, "I have the logical right to set up a hired guard, and others don't!"

"If Ji Kong wants to take advantage of the strength of the Ministry of War, he must use my mercenary guards to do something for him. Similarly, Ji Qingwu needs to do the same if he wants to attack Ji Kong!"

That's right, what Ye Wudao wants is a logical reason and excuse, what he wants is to justify his behavior.

"As long as Ji Kong doesn't cooperate with us, we will threaten us to cooperate with Ji Qingwu. If Ji Qingwu doesn't cooperate with us, then we will do the same threat in reverse!" JrNovels.com
