Chapter 291

Facing the rebuke from the maids behind Rong Fei, Xu Biqing seldom gets angry, but looks at Rong Fei with a smile, as if waiting for her to make a decision.

That face has the appearance of a well-established mind, let Rong Fei pick eyebrows, "since Miss Xu is so confident, then it's OK for our palace to cooperate with you, but our palace's temper is not very good. If Miss Xu can't satisfy the palace with what she has, then don't blame the palace for its ruthlessness. "

Rong Fei said and knocked on her red Dankou's fingers. Her smile was charming, but her words made her shiver involuntarily.

"So Miss Xu should consider it carefully. After all, our palace is not as talkative as the empress."

Being threatened and beaten by Rong Fei, Xu Biqing didn't show any fear on her face. Instead, she laughed more confidently and calmly. "Empress can rest assured that what she has in her hands will satisfy her."

Looking at her persistence, Rong Fei nodded carelessly, holding the hand of the girl beside her.

"Well, how do you want the palace to cooperate with you?"

Xu Biqing's smile became softer and softer. "The empress doesn't need to do anything more. She just needs to sit in front of the dresser, and then she will do everything for the people."

Rong Fei nodded, got up, supported her hand and sat down in front of the bronze mirror.

Xu Biqing turns around and takes out two boxes of rouge like things from the small box held by the girl behind him.

Half an hour later, Xu Biqing put down her hand with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "the empress can open her eyes."

Rong Fei's eyelashes trembled. She opened her eyes and looked at the light in the mirror. She seemed to be several years younger. She turned her head toward Xu Biqing in disbelief.

Xu Biqing smiles and pushes the two boxes on the table like rouge, and some different things to Rong Fei.

"This is the purpose of minnu's coming to the Palace this time. One box is pearl cream made by minnu and the other box is Zhuyan cream. Pearl cream can make a lady's face as white as a girl's. And the cream is like its name general, long-term smear, can make the empress look younger and younger

Rong Fei reached out and touched her obviously smoothed face. Looking at the two boxes of rouge on the table, she was very surprised, but she didn't show it on her face.

"How come my palace has never heard of such a good thing?"

Xu Biqing said with a smile, "these things were developed by minnv herself. The medicinal materials and raw materials used in them are also very precious. Therefore, the price is not low, but very expensive. I think the empress also knows the identity of the people's daughter, and she has no power. The people's daughter really dare not take these things out for sale, so as not to attract other people's envy, so she begged the empress to bring the beauty to the empress. If the empress is satisfied with her use, she can provide these things for her for a long time. "

Rong Fei touched her cheek and her eyes were full of surprises. Hearing what Xu Biqing said, he answered directly, "I promise you that as long as you can guarantee the supply of this thing, silver is not a problem. In addition, the palace can also promise you a personal condition

That's the advantage of talking to smart people.

Xu Biqing looked at Rong Fei with a look of being flattered. She was surprised and said, "since that's the case, the people's daughter is here. Thank you very much."

Rong Fei nodded and helped Xu Biqing up from the ground with a smile. She reached out and patted Xu Biqing's hand.

"The Queen's sister sent me a wonderful person."

Knowing that Rong Fei's words were temptations, Xu Biqing didn't get rid of the relationship with the queen, just nodded with a smile.

Rong Fei's smile is deeper. Let the steamed bun around him take out a sapphire hairpin from his makeup box and give it to Xu Biqing. Then he sent the people away.

The next day, before the court hall.

With Mr. Li shouting, the emperor arrived, and the ministers standing in the court knelt down to salute.

Long live the emperor

The emperor waved his hand and said, "all Qing are flat."

All the ministers stood up from the ground, and Mr. Li stepped forward and cheered as usual, "if you have a foundation, you will start, but if you have no foundation, you will retreat."

As soon as these words came out, Yun Lingtian stepped forward and said respectfully, "I'd like to inform my father and emperor that last time, my father asked my son and my third brother to calculate the amount of grain, grass and money needed for the disaster relief in the south of the Yangtze River, and my son calculated it. I'd like to ask my father to have a look at the detailed requirements listed by my son and my third brother. "

Li Gonggong took the memorial from Yun Lingtian and put it in front of the emperor. After the emperor opened it, he put it aside as usual.

"Have you ever reported the money to the Ministry of accounts?"

Yun Lingtian nodded, turned his head and took a look at the Hubu Shangshu standing in the crowd. "My son and my third brother went to invite the Hubu Shangshu on the day after they had calculated the silver."

Later, Yun Lingtian didn't say anything. The emperor's eyes looked at the Minister of the Ministry of accounts. The Minister of the Ministry of accounts came forward with a face and bowed his hand respectfully: "I tell your majesty that yesterday his royal highness reported the silver to Weichen. This time, the silver listed in the prince's palace needs at least 2 million taels, but the Treasury can transfer up to 100 taels Ten thousand taels of silver, half of which is still missing. Yesterday, Wei Chen ordered his subordinates to install it, seal it and put it in the warehouse. "The emperor frowned slightly, and Ji Changye and Yun Haotian looked at each other.

Yunhaotian turned to Shangshu of the Department of accounts and said, "Mr. Liu, how can the Treasury transfer only one million taels of silver? In the past two years, the weather has been good, and there have been almost no major disasters in all parts of the country. The Treasury should be full. "

Even if the Treasury is not very full, it will not even be able to take out two million taels of silver!

The ministers looked suspiciously at the Secretary of the Ministry of household, but he was not alarmed. He took out a thick memorial from his sleeve and handed it to Li Gonggong.

"Your Majesty, this is the account book compiled by Wei Chen last night. It records in detail the reason why the Treasury can only take out one million taels of silver. Please have a look at it."

Li Gonggong gives it to the emperor. Although the emperor looks ugly, he doesn't say a word. He asks Li Gonggong to pass the memorial to Yun Haotian.

After reading the rules and regulations, Yun Haotian felt dizzy.

Yes, how can he forget that there has been no disaster in the past two years, but the border is not stable.

There are even some people who want to harass them every so often. Although there are not many deaths and injuries, there is a huge amount of money in a year. Most of the money in the Treasury is spent on the army.

Not to mention the gathering of the four countries every three days, Wu's military strength has never been very strong compared with other countries, but the victory lies in the vast territory, abundant resources, which is the first of the four countries.

But without the support of a strong army, the head of the four countries may not be long.

After reading all the things listed on the old fold, Yun Haotian also fell into silence.

Then the memorial went round in the hands of all the adults in the court, and returned to the hands of the emperor again. The emperor then said, "now there is still one million taels of relief silver left. I wonder if you Aiqing have any good strategies?"

All the ministers looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, there was a whisper, but no one dared to speak.

Seeing this, the emperor's face became more ugly.

Li Gonggong quickly poured a cup of hot tea and put it on the emperor's side. The emperor looked at the ministers whispering under him with gloomy eyes. His face became more and more ugly, and he looked like the wind and rain was coming.

When Li Gonggong was frightened, the emperor suddenly called Ji Changye's name, "Changye, what do you think this should be done?"

Suddenly a Leng, looked up toward Ji long night in the past.

Ji Changye's handsome face is still cold and aloof. Hearing the emperor's words, he steps forward and says, "I think your majesty can gather the rich businessmen in the country and ask them to raise money. After that, I will praise them."

The emperor's sharp eyes narrowed slightly, as if inadvertently looked at Yun Lingtian and Yun Haotian standing under him, and continued to ask: "there are many rich businessmen in the Middle Kingdom, but why do major generals think they will fight? Moreover, as the king of a country, if those rich businessmen refuse to help, will I force them? "

Ji long night facial expression slightly a cold, but the emperor sits far, didn't see.

"It's their honor to serve their country. How can it be said that they were forced by their majesty. What's more, I don't think they will refuse to collect money for good deeds. "

Listening to Ji Changye's words, there was a touch of irony in the emperor's eyes.

"Since you are so confident, I'll leave it to you. After five days, you will take these drinks and food and set out. In three days, it will be done properly. "

As soon as the emperor said this, all the ministers were surprised.

Standing beside him, Yun Haotian was shocked. He turned his head and looked at his father. As soon as he wanted to ask for mercy, he heard the emperor say: "prince, Haotian, you two also study hard with general Ji and use your brains more."

This is a warning. Yun Haotian didn't like Ji Changye, so he won't plead for him. At this time, hearing his father say so, he turned his head to look at Ji Changye sarcastically.

Yunhaotian is not the same, step forward and the emperor will extend the time. Ji long night but stretched out his hand to grasp his sleeve, toward him shook his head, arched his hand respectfully toward the upper emperor way: "micro minister will live up to your Majesty's trust."

The emperor nodded his head with satisfaction. With Li Gonggong's retreating, everyone left.
