Chapter 1217： Monarch and minister contest

Chapter 1217 Contest between Monarch and Subject

It would not be a problem to be the emperor for more than ten years, so how could he put everything on the newborn child so early.

After all, those so-called born auspicious children recorded in history are also very likely to be mediocre.

And when Ye Muyu was thinking about what was going on.

When I went to meet the eldest princess, I got the news from the other party.

"What gift is Madam going to give?" The eldest princess's dignified face was quite serious, and the question she asked made Ye Muyu stunned for a moment.

"The concubine has prepared a set of safety locks."

"Not enough." The eldest princess shook her head.

Ye Muyu was stunned: "Not...enough?"

She almost thought that she heard it wrong. Even if it was the Longevity Day, the gifts given by the officials were mainly rare. Because there were so many gifts, the gifts were vulgar, and it was a waste of money if they were not loved by the emperor.

Then gradually became more and more convenient, for example, a single book, famous paintings and so on.

"The concubine will go back and prepare the Baifu screen." It's too late to make it now, but it shouldn't be a problem to make it smaller and ask the embroiderer at home to help, she thought to herself.

The eldest princess is used to her serious appearance. After all, she is a round older than Ye Muyu. Because of the matter of her young son, her attitude towards Ye Muyu is obviously much softer.

smiled lightly: "Since it is the officials who asked the emperor to borrow the blessing of the sixth prince to pray for the people."

"The ministers will naturally have to express themselves. Naturally, the more expensive the gift they give, the better. If they are exchanged for money and food and sent to the military camp, this war may end as soon as they wish."

Ye Muyu looked at the arrogance on the eldest princess's face.

Recalling what she said, she suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the emperor agreed to hold a full moon banquet for the sixth prince. It turned out that he was taking this opportunity to ask the courtiers to contribute money to support the war.

She could even imagine how annoyed Zheng Guogong and others were when they realized the emperor's intentions.

Wait for Ye Muyu to come out from the Eldest Princess' Mansion.

It was discovered that the news had spread among the common people in the capital.

All the ministers in the court borrowed the blessing of the six princes to pray for the frontier soldiers, and the ministers offered a lot of treasures for this.

Emperor Xuanming was overjoyed, and used the gift money from the sixth prince to support the frontier soldiers and let the soldiers borrow blessings.

This rumor spread within an hour.

The officials realized that they had been tricked after a while, but when the day of the banquet came, they didn't dare to give flashy things.

It also needs to be auspicious and valuable.

For a while, ornaments made of gold and silver became the first choice of officials.

Zheng Guogong's study.

"Duke, it's no wonder the emperor agreed in the end. It turned out that we didn't push him into a hurry, but because of this calculation." The counselor looked a little ugly in front of the table.

Zheng Guogong squeezed his fist, let it go again, squinted his eyes and said: "It's nothing, but we also found out that the emperor doesn't want to establish a prince now, but the sixth prince has the auspicious reputation of the vision of the sky, only out For money, the Sixth Prince has at least gained a reputation, which can be regarded as preparation for the future."

It's just that the harvest period is a bit long, at least, he didn't intend to sacrifice anything to fulfill the reputation of the sixth prince.

After all, he thought auspiciousness was enough.

The Sixth Prince's full moon feast.

After Ye Muyu entered the palace, he gave a very solid silver lock to the servant, worth two hundred taels.

And when she saw the golden coral trees, pure gold Buddha statues, pearls and other objects being called out by the servant, she really opened her eyes.

These courtiers are rich!

Her solid silver lock is really too low-grade. If I knew she would have made a hollow in the middle, at least it would look bigger.
