Zhou Ping'an raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Chen Tong has already gone back to the Dongchang to handle business."

Zhou Changshou nodded and said, "Then shall we go now"

"No need to rush."

Zhou Ping'an shook his head and refused. He looked at Xu Changqing, who was dumbfounded and astonished, and said, "Many things can't be done without General Su's cooperation. Besides, both emotionally and rationally, this matter should be informed to General Su first. Xu sir, don't you think so"

"To... huh! Huh!"

Xu Changqing subconsciously blurted out a retort, immediately realizing that there were certain things he absolutely shouldn't say before getting to the bottom of the situation.

He stomped his feet and exclaimed, "What are you talking about I don't understand a word!"

Zhou Ping'an sighed and said, "Xu sir, now someone is setting fires all over the country, then using various reasons to cover up these sparks, waiting for the flames to grow bigger and unstoppable. When that time comes, just a gust of wind will fan the flames, sweeping across the land with an irresistible blaze."

"Yes."

Xu Changqing nodded, his expression grave. He then continued, "But what does this have to do with what you just said What about the Jinyiwei and General Su What are you trying to do!"

Zhou Ping'an saw that Su Changqing was already a little angry, so he smiled and said: "Mr. Xu, please calm down. Can we still plot a rebellion It's true that His Highness is wise and martial, and he had anticipated this matter before wanting to resolve it properly. I am afraid that it will inevitably involve the use of force, so he specifically authorized the restraint of the Dongchang Jinyiwei throughout the world, but for such a big matter, it still needs the military's assistance from General Su, so no matter what, we must go to General Su's mansion to speak about the benefits and drawbacks, requesting General Su's help. With this explanation, Mr. Xu should understand"

Xu Changqing let out a breath of relief, he nodded and said: "I understand, it's not a problem... Just, silver is the root solution to the problem..."

"It's alright."

Zhou Ping'an let out a light chuckle. As soon as his words left his mouth, an official rushed in from outside, flustered and agitated, shouting: "Sir Xu, many convoys have arrived outside, loaded with chests of silver. The people say that five million taels of silver are now complete and have been delivered. Please, Zhou...Zhou Sir, check the delivery."

Xu Changqing's eyes widened, his face filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Zhou Ping'an waved his hand and smiled, "Sir Xu, please send someone to count it. Then immediately use this batch of silver to alleviate the immediate crisis. There will be another 15 million taels of silver arriving later, totaling 20 million taels in all. It should be enough to get us through this crisis."

Xu Changqing was completely stunned.

He couldn't have imagined, in any way, that he would be so flustered and helpless, to the point where the entire court was at a loss. Zhou Pingan solved everything just by coming back.

His first thought was that the prince had made a move.

"This, this could it be Your Highness···"

"It is all thanks to your efforts, my lord."

Zhou Ping'an smiled and said, "But I used another method. Sir Xu, don't waste time. Send someone to count and store the goods quickly, then we'll go see General Su together. The plan of action should be implemented as soon as possible."

Xu Zhangqing immediately replied, "Zhou sir is right. Please wait a moment, I will instruct someone to bring the items into the warehouse and then immediately take you to meet General Su."Chapter 817: Betraying Information
