Chapter 825: enter the palace
Chapter 825 Entering the palace
The other ministers standing aside are in a hurry! Emperor, how can you boast so much?
In case, Lord Mu opened his mouth like a lion, what do you think? Do you do it or not?
In order to prevent the emperor from stepping down, Jiang Shidu was about to speak.
But Tan Anjun is not a vegetarian either, he waited so long for the emperor's words, how could he let someone surnamed Jiang destroy it.
He stood up abruptly, not giving anyone a chance to speak, and bowed to express his gratitude: "Thank you Lord Long En, on behalf of the people of Liangzhou Prefecture, I would like to thank Your Majesty first."
Emperor Changxing suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and his heart suddenly felt cold, what should we do? Can he take back what he just said?
"I entered the palace this time, and I just wanted to talk to Your Majesty about it."
"Oh?" Sure enough, is he asking for money and food?
Emperor Changxing thought in his heart that no matter what he said later, he would refuse.
"The late emperor once decreed that the subject should inherit the title. At the beginning, because the subject and the father disappeared successively, the late emperor worked tirelessly to help me take care of the property of the Mu Palace. The subject is very grateful in his heart. Now the subject is back. "Tan Anjun raised his head and looked directly at Emperor Changxing, "The reason I entered the palace is to ask His Majesty to calculate and calculate the property of the Mu Palace, the dowry of the minister's mother and concubine, and the taxes of the original fiefdom for more than ten years, and return them to our Mu Palace as soon as possible. .”
The few people standing in the hall gasped when they heard the words. This huge sum of money was a bit scary. It was originally a huge account, and with the addition of more than ten years of accumulation, His Majesty is willing to hand over this amazing wealth to others?
Emperor Changxing really didn't want to part with this meeting. He was sitting behind the court case and wished he could slap himself a few times. Who the fuck!
I get carried away when I am happy.
He was so annoyed that he wished that he never said what he said just now, he hesitated for a while looking for a suitable reason, and he didn't know how to refuse.
But since he became the emperor, he has used the drag formula and Tai Chi very well.
"King Mu," Emperor Changxing sighed, "During the last ten years of the late emperor's reign, major disasters and minor disasters occurred every year in the land of the Daying Dynasty. Barely supporting the normal court operation.
Especially in the past four years, there has been a large area of drought in the country, and the disaster has lasted for three years. The expenditure for disaster relief has doubled, and taxes have not been collected.
Last year, white disasters in the north and floods in the south, both sides attacked, and I was almost beaten into a paper man. Last year, the military supplies on the border were all paid by the Shaofu.
My private treasury has almost been emptied, and the treasury is now full of rats. "
"Your Majesty!"
Tan Anjun listened impatiently to his complaints, and interrupted Emperor Changxing's rambling, who wouldn't cry poor?
"My fief was originally in Yongzhou. Although it was not the richest, it was not poor. I could have won with peace of mind. Since you came to the throne, you have made various reforms for the country. As long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, the ministers will not object."
Emperor Changxing didn't understand what lying win meant, and combined with King Mu's words, he probably understood the meaning.
The words are beautiful, although it will not shake his will to refuse, but at least he feels comfortable at this moment. He has pulled out countless strands of hair for reform.
Tan Anjun didn't care what Emperor Changxing was thinking, he changed the subject: "However, Liangzhou Mansion is too desolate, although the area is vast, but the population is less than half of Yongzhou County, Your Majesty, how do you let your ministers carry out work here? There is no way to live without money and food. The officials of the Liangzhou government believe that His Majesty knows better than the ministers what their situation is.
Besides, no one knows exactly what Liangzhou Prefecture will look like in the face of the natural disasters in the past three or four years, and the situation may be even worse. "
Emperor Changxing expressed his embarrassment on the face, "I want to help you too, but the national treasury is empty and in deficit year after year, let alone no food for the winter, even overnight food!"
"The national treasury is empty. I know that your majesty is in trouble. I don't want to help your majesty to share the pressure. I beg your majesty to liquidate the money from Prince Mu's mansion to me. I will definitely use this money for the development of Liangzhou mansion. I hope that the life of the people in Liangzhou will not be so hard." Tan Anjun promised.
Emperor Changxing sighed: "King Mu, you have a heart."
"Your Majesty, part of that is the dowry of the minister's mother and concubine!" Seeing that he was too soft, Tan Anjun prepared to be tougher, his tone inevitably threatening.
As long as you are an emperor, you are not afraid of being laughed at by the world!
Forcibly keep other people's mothers' dowry and don't return it, then the spittle of the people all over the world will drown you.
Emperor Changxing felt a little embarrassed when he was picked on like this. He was angry in his heart, but his face was majestic, and he said comforting words with a straight face: "I know it is your mother's concubine's dowry. Neither the private treasury nor the Shaofu have found where the money went."
Seeing the anger hidden in Tan Anjun's phoenix eyes, and just about to speak, Emperor Changxing's tone was much softer: "Of course, since I ascended the throne, I have been busy with the affairs of the previous court, and I haven't had time to take stock of my private treasury. Look at this OK?
I will send someone to take stock of the private treasury first, you go back and wait for the news, it will take a few days anyway. "
Tan Anjun snorted coldly in his heart. He sent him back now because he wanted to find someone to discuss countermeasures. Knowing what Emperor Changxing was up to, he still went back.
When he entered the palace, he never thought that he would succeed in collecting debts once.
As soon as Tan Anjun left the Hall of Qinzheng, Emperor Changxing's eyes turned back and forth on the few people standing at the bottom, and finally his eyes stayed on Jiang Shidu, "Everyone heard that this time King Mu entered the palace to collect debts from me. Come on, what do you think about this?"
The rest of the people didn't have any better ideas in mind, so they stood silently.
Jiang Shidu was so stared at by Emperor Changxing that his hairs stood on end. He looked at the rest of the people, and they all stood there motionless, watching their noses and noses.
No choice, he could only bite the bullet and take a step forward, "The treasury is empty, so it must be impossible to pay for this money, but the dowry of Queen Mother Mu. It's hard to say, Your Majesty must carefully consider it before making a decision."
The dowry belongs exclusively to the woman’s post-marital property. If the world knows that the current emperor dominates the aunt’s dowry and refuses to return it, then that’s a big deal!
There will be an uproar in the world!
He cannot bear the charge of instigating the emperor.
The dowry of the original Princess Mu is only a small part of this wealth, but the big part is the fief taxation and the royal property.
Emperor Changxing wanted to share such a piece of pie, his heart was bleeding, how could he be willing?
"This is just one of them, what about the property and fief taxation of Prince Mu's Mansion?"
Several other people: "." This?
It is only right and proper to pay off debts.
These confidants had nothing to say, but they had to say it, and they had to help find a way.
Murdering someone for money is like killing your parents.
This time, I'm afraid they will become immortal and mother-killing enemies with Lord Mu!
