Since King Yu accepted such ten million taels of silver, everyone had nothing to worry about.
Many people know exactly what the imperial court's warehouses look like now.
"If the emperor hadn't managed to get a lot of money in the past two years and spent it all this year, I'm afraid the imperial government's finances would have collapsed long ago.
This is no joke.
Officials in Beijing, starting from the seventh rank and above, have not received their salaries for five consecutive months.
Although the Empress Dowager has told everyone that she will definitely give everyone a reward at the end of the year, everyone is still depressed.
?The feeling of getting money every month is different from getting money in the last month.
"Nowadays, the ministers at the top are doing better, but many middle- and low-level officials at the bottom are in a bit of misery. Many of them have to borrow money to live.
Everyone knows that the current situation is very difficult. All military supplies and money must be provided to the soldiers on the front line, but if some salaries are not paid, problems may arise.
Wang Zhigeng is not usually a person who knows the sufferings of the world. Their standard for selecting censors is to recruit from middle-class families.
This will not only ensure that they will not like the people of the upper class who like to prey on the common people, but also will not be like the people of the lower class who will crazily amass money once they succeed, fearing that they will return to poverty in their dreams.
Do you understand?
So in fact, when censors or supervisors are looking for a poor person, they are looking for the wrong person!
The poor are far more eager to move up than the middle class. Once they have the opportunity, they will go crazy.
"I didn't expect that Taizu of Dakang would have such a vision. It was really amazing.
Therefore, after Wang Zhigeng knew that Liu Mingqi could not be severely punished, he immediately changed a method that could not only solve the current problems of the court, but also suppress Prince Yu's palace.
After all, if a family is too rich, it will not be a good thing for the world.
Not long after, Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing were brought out.
The location is the Queen Mother's palace. The Queen Mother, the Emperor, King Su, King Yi and King Yu are all there.
King Yi just arrived.
He had the best luck. Originally, the emperor ordered him not to come out or do anything.
"As a result, when his son arrived in the capital today, before he could think of a way to save people, the emperor sent an eunuch over to tell him that everything was fine.
After arriving at the Queen Mother's palace, he realized the mystery.
At the same time, on the way here, Zhao Shou also told Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing what happened in and outside the palace today.
So after greeting the Queen Mother, the Emperor and the elders, Liu Mingqi first said: "Dad, you are too easy to bully? This is ten million taels of silver. How can our family have so much money?"
Although King Yu has relatively weak qualifications and usually does not have the ambition to do anything big, he already knew at this time how inappropriate it was for him to agree so readily.
Seeing his son accusing him, he nodded quickly: "Aren't we eager to save you? You have to admit it even if you don't have money!"
"What recognition can you give if you don't have money?" Liu Mingqi turned around and said to Emperor Jinghe: "Your Majesty, is there any possibility of a discount?"
"Go! Go! Go!"
Emperor Jinghe obviously liked his nephew very much, but he couldn't help feeling disgusted when he heard this, "Why are you pretending in front of our own family? Ten million taels of silver is a lot, but you can earn it back in two or three years at most! This is just a matter of course." Can't you help the imperial court?"
"It's okay to help the court, but the money is too much, right?" Liu Mingqi looked distressed, "How many pieces of soap do you have to sell for this?"
"Come on!"
Emperor Jinghe exposed him again, "Don't you know that your boric acid soap sales have gone crazy this year?"
When marching and fighting, wound infection is the most troublesome thing.
After being injured, you don¡¯t have much time to bandage and treat it slowly. Therefore, more than half of the deaths in ancient wars came from the lack of good care after the injury.
Now with boric acid soap it¡¯s different.
If conditions do not allow, just use boric acid soap to melt water, then clean the wound, and then wrap it with gauze. Most minor wounds will be fine.
There have been very frequent wars in the past few months, and there are wars everywhere, so the imperial court has been purchasing boric acid soap and sending it to the front line.
This also affected the production of soap.
"Then why didn't you say that our business to Jiangnan has been very popular this year?Don't get too hung up on it.
"It's better to come back!"
King Yi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I have to thank you for tying this guy to the capital, otherwise I would never be able to bear the worry and fear for the second time."
"Dad"
"you shut up!"
Liu Mingjing was suppressed immediately.
¡°However, he did not admit defeat. It¡¯s just that a good man doesn¡¯t suffer immediate losses. This matter will be discussed later.
He doesn¡¯t believe it anymore. Can Liu Mingqi endure it?
When the time comes, wouldn¡¯t it be nice to follow his boy and go out to kill the enemy together?
But Liu Mingjing never expected that Liu Mingqi immediately said: "Uncle Wang Yi is right! We really shouldn't let the family worry Grandma Huang, Dad, after I came back this time, I decided to Married! After marrying my wife, I will continue the family lineage of the old Liu family and live a peaceful and down-to-earth life."
"ah!?"
King Yu was shocked. Is it my son who wants to say this?
The emperor was also stunned.
What tricks is this kid doing?
Only the Queen Mother stood up happily: "Mingqi! Grandma Huang has been waiting for your words for too long! Tell me, which girl do you like? Grandma Huang will go to you personally to match-match, and you will have to rob her. return!"
"I don't have a favorite girl, but it doesn't matter if she's pretty or has a good figure. What's important is that she has a kind heart and knows how to honor Grandma Huang and my parents." Liu Mingqi said, "Oh, By the way, Grandma Huang, have you heard what His Majesty said? The Baekje people gave me a little princess who is very beautiful and has a good personality. I am going to make her my concubine, together with Sister Su."
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
The old lady doesn't care about that much. The more grandchildren she can marry, the better. "Hey, that Baekje girl is also lucky. She is lucky enough to follow you! Okay, let the two of them be concubines. In addition, the imperial concubine must be Choose a good concubine for you!"
Liu Mingjing muttered in a loud voice beside him: "Mingqi is no longer a prince"
When he talked about this, Emperor Jinghe's old face turned red unconsciously: "This, this Don't worry, everyone, Mingqi will definitely be promoted! At the latest, when the crown prince is officially canonized, I will take the opportunity to His princely title was restored."
"Ah, very good!"
The old lady nodded happily, "But Your Majesty, Ming Jing has also made great achievements this time. You see there are still scars on his face. It's better to seal such a good boy together!"
"OK!"
Emperor Jinghe had this plan, and he immediately agreed: "Let's wait until then! Mingyou is the same, let's be promoted to the county king!"
Although the relationship between Liu Mingjing and Liu Mingqi is slightly different, he is still his good nephew.
This time Liu Mingjing went out to fight, and he was invincible and never retreated. Every local leader and military boss who saw him was full of praise for him.
¡°That is to say, he is from the royal family, otherwise he would have been robbed madly.
"And this nephew, who also worked hard for the country, not only did not receive a reward, but was imprisoned in the sky prison as soon as he came back. The emperor could not understand him.
The same goes for Liu Mingyou. He is also not afraid of death. He started throwing gasoline and hell cocktails in a hot air balloon, just to risk his life.
God knows how frightened King Su was when the news came that a total of eight hot air balloons had been shot down and exploded in Jinzhou City and Ningyuan City. The emperor felt that this always serious brother was about to cry.
Based on this, the emperor also needs to reward him. Otherwise, when the real crisis comes in the future and all power needs to be used, who of the clan members will dare to be willing to serve the country?
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
King Yi and King Su bowed in thanks at the same time.
¡°If this was something else, that would be fine. They don¡¯t necessarily want these rewards.
¡°But this is what their son fought for with his life, and they are not qualified to shirk it for their son.
In other words, this is what the two children deserve, and it is also the pride of the two fathers!
But Liu Mingjing didn¡¯t think there was anything special.
He wanted to say that he should exchange this reward for continuing to fight the foreign invaders, but he knew that if he said it, he would be scolded, so he could only hold back.
Then, the Queen Mother added, "Isn't Ming Jing not getting married yet? Let's prepare for it. The two brothers will do it together. It is also a happy event during the Spring Festival!"
"good!"
The emperor smiled and agreed.
Liu Mingjing was stunned!
