"Y-Yes..." the Scribe in charge of the Government Treasury stammered, at a loss for words. "General Han's side is short on military pay this year. He took Lord Duyou's note and temporarily withdrew some silver, saying he would return it later. I never expected General Zheng to arrive so quickly..."
Seeing this, Wang's Staff, who was standing beside them, couldn't help but frown deeply. He inwardly cried out in dismay, wondering how something like this could happen at a time like this. Did the Duyou and Squad Commander Han not know that the Lord was currently in dire need of capable people? They needed this son-in-law of the Cai Family to mobilize the Cai Family, getting them to guard against the Black Mountain Bandits!
