Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent!

1045: Chapter 1045: Annihilation 1045: Chapter 1045: Annihilation Zhou Shuren withdrew his gaze, “My uncle’s grandson has already arrived at the capital, let me know when you’d like to meet him.”

Li Zhao stroked his beard.

The Ministry of War had been busy lately, “Give me some time, and I’ll send you a letter.”

Zhou Shuren raised an eyebrow, thinking about the soldiers stationed at the Zhang residence, and nodded, “Alright.”

Li Zhao asked, “Is the Ministry of Revenue really out of silver?”

Zhou Shuren thought of Yang Wen and restrained himself, “We really can’t spare any.”

Li Zhao pouted, “In my eyes, you’re like the God of Wealth.”

Zhou Shuren, “…Do I thank you for that compliment?”

Li Zhao truly felt that way; ever since Zhou Shuren had joined the Ministry of Revenue, although still stingy, they readily provided the necessary silver, unlike before when they genuinely had none and payments were made in installments.

He patted Zhou Shuren on the shoulder, “You need to think of a solution.”

Zhou Shuren was speechless, “Once the delegation sells the ships and returns, we’ll have the silver.”

Li Zhao rolled his eyes, “It’s uncertain if they can sell them, and even if they do, it’ll take several months to return.”

Zhou Shuren chuckled dryly, not waiting for Li Zhao who walked away quickly.

In the government hall, the Emperor ignored Yao Wenqi, who was kneeling, and perused through the Zhezi one by one.

The hall was silent, and time ticked slowly by.

Yao Wenqi knelt motionlessly, his head bowed low, for several days without adequate rest.

The day the sky-high fire had erupted, he had stood on a high platform watching, as the fire consumed the buildings and similarly consumed him, as if flames were scorching his skin, robbing him of peaceful sleep day after day.
