Chapter 460
"Of course not that much. At present, the money in the treasury is only enough for a sum of expenses, or it will be reserved for military pay, and then it will be used for disaster relief. Therefore, this matter is also a headache for me." The emperor replied seriously.

Ye Anran thought for a while, and suggested: "Your Majesty, otherwise, let's do this first. What do you think? Let's divide the treasury's money into two parts, one part will be used for disaster relief in the south to solve the urgent needs of the people, and the other part will be used as military pay. Take it easy."

"It's not that I haven't thought about this method, but there is a terrible drawback in this method."

"What?" Ye Anran asked suspiciously.

"The silver is divided into two parts, which is naturally not enough. Once the disaster relief funds in the south are used up and the military pay is not enough, then what should we do next? It's not that both sides are delayed, so it's better to use it directly on one." The emperor calmly analyzed.

"What the emperor said is very true. It's because the ministers and concubines lacked consideration." Ye Anran secretly admired him. He is worthy of being the king of a country. It's really just a little girl's idea, a little naive.

"You don't have to blame yourself, the state affairs are very troublesome, and I can't solve them, let alone you, a woman." Seeing Ye Anran lowered her head and didn't speak, the emperor thought she was sad, so he comforted her.

"Yes, what the emperor said is very reasonable, but... what should we do now? This matter seems to be imminent." Ye Anran also began to worry.

"Let's put this matter aside for now. When the court tomorrow, I will discuss it with all the ministers to see if I can find a way to get the best of both worlds. Besides, I am tired too. Let's go, let's go to rest." The emperor said staggeringly. get up.

But I found that my body was very empty, as if I had no strength at all...

Just took a step, but couldn't stand still, and almost fell, Ye Anran immediately ran over and supported the emperor: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine, just a little dizzy." The emperor said slowly.

"Come on, pass on the imperial physician." Ye Anran exclaimed.

In the same night, the imperial physician rushed to the palace, checked the emperor's pulse in the Golden Dragon Hall, and then walked out.

"Doctor Wang, how is the emperor's condition?" Ye Anran asked worriedly.

"Empress, don't worry. The old minister took the emperor's pulse and found that the emperor was just overworked recently, coupled with worry, so he was a little weak for a while. It seems that he needs to rest for a few days. He can't work hard these days. , You have to lie down properly, the old minister will prescribe some herbal medicine to regulate the body, and ask the emperor to take it on time." Wang Taiyi said word by word.

"Okay, I understand, Eunuch Zhu, you go to the imperial pharmacy to get the medicine." Ye Anran ordered.

"Yes, ma'am."

"Empress Empress, how is the emperor...?" Hearing that the emperor fell ill, Concubine Chen got up overnight to visit her.

"Sister Concubine Chen, don't worry, she's fine. The doctor said... Recently, because the emperor has been busy with state affairs, and because of the empress dowager's affairs, she has been too sad, so her physical strength is empty, but there is no major problem." Ye Anran explained.

"That's good, then... Can my concubine go in and see the emperor?" Concubine Chen's tone was pleading.

"Of course it's ok, go, but the emperor is already asleep at this moment, Sister Chenfei, you'd better not wake him up, just take a look." Ye Anran urged repeatedly.

"Well, thank you empress." In fact, Concubine Chen seems to be more worried about the emperor's body than Ye Anran. She is very grateful that Ye Anran did not use the queen's power to suppress herself, and did not stop herself from looking at the emperor. After a while, after discovering that the emperor was okay, Concubine Chen left with peace of mind.

Like this, Ye Anran stood by the emperor's side in undressed clothes until dawn...

"Anran, I seem to see you every time I really open my eyes." After the emperor woke up, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked Ye Anran's fair face, feeling a little sweet in his heart.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?"

"Well, it's almost dawn, I'm going to court." The emperor seemed to be still worried about state affairs.

"Your Majesty, my concubine solemnly informs you that you cannot go to court today, you should rest." Ye Anran comforted in a low voice.

"An Ran, don't make trouble, what can I do, I still have important matters to discuss with the ministers." The emperor smiled bitterly.

"Eunuch Zhu, come in, please tell the emperor about the situation." Ye Anran knew that the emperor might not listen to what he said alone, so he simply called Eunuch Zhu to come in and persuade the emperor together.

"Your Majesty, you need to rest now. The imperial physician has ordered you to rest wholeheartedly for the next few days and don't think about anything, otherwise... your heart disease will only get worse." Eunuch Zhu knelt on the ground and said word by word.

"Heart disease?" The emperor frowned, seemingly puzzled.

"Well, your majesty, you don't know yet. The imperial doctor came to check your pulse today, saying that you have been overworked by the recent state affairs, and after the death of the empress dowager, you have been hit hard in your heart. You are overly sad and need to be recuperated. It is not suitable for you to continue to work. My concubine advises you to rest for a few days, after all, only with good health can you continue to benefit the common people."

"But I still have important things to do. The floods in the south and the shortage of military pay, I can't watch the people and the soldiers who defend the country go hungry." The emperor was most worried about this issue.

Ye Anran suddenly said: "Your Majesty, leave this matter to my concubine. Within three days, my concubine will definitely help the emperor solve it perfectly. If it can't be solved, then... my concubine is willing to deal with it by military law."

"What? Are you here to deal with this matter? An Ran, don't be joking. This is not a trivial matter. Even the king of my country can't do anything about it. What can you do?" The emperor was a little surprised.

"In short, if the emperor believes in his concubine, he will take good care of his illness and wait for the good news in three days." Ye Anran's attitude was very firm.

"Your majesty, let the empress try it, it's better than continuing to work on your own." Eunuch Zhu also comforted.

"Forget it, then... An Ran, this matter is entrusted to you, I hope... you don't let me down, don't let the people down." The emperor finally compromised.

"Your Majesty, please don't worry, my concubine will do her best to deal with this matter, and share the worries of the Emperor." Ye Anran smiled slightly.

next morning
In the court hall, all the ministers waited for the emperor to appear, but they refused to see the emperor's figure for a long time.

Suddenly, a golden figure appeared. Ye Anran was wearing a golden wind robe, nine phoenixes and a golden crown, and she was holding the emperor's jade seal in her hand. She walked in slowly.

"Why is the empress here?" The officials saw Ye Anran and commented in puzzlement.

Ye Anran walked to the main hall, Eunuch Zhu brought a toffee chair, Ye Anran sat in the middle and then looked around and said: "Eunuch Zhu, please read the emperor's oral order."

"Yes, the Queen Mother."

Afterwards, Eunuch Zhu cleared his throat, and read out: "The emperor's dictation, I have been overly sad due to the death of the queen mother recently, and I am in poor health, so I cannot go to the court for the time being. Please report all the big and small matters in the court to the queen, and I will return to my husband and wife." In discussion, bestowed upon me."

"What... what does this mean?" Prime Minister Ning seemed confused.

"Prime Minister, don't you understand? Your Majesty is in poor health. From today onwards, I will take over the government." Ye Anran said with a cold face.

Suddenly, the officials were shocked...
