Chapter 893: Grand ceremony

Chapter 893 Canon

Looking at Xie Zhihui, Yuan Shi couldn't help but think of when her daughter left the cabinet, she was filled with emotion. She took Xie Zhihui's hand and got up, "Good boy, don't be so polite, go in and talk."

Tonight, it is reasonable to ask the mother to accompany the daughter who is about to leave the court for the night. Xie Zhiwei was accompanied by the old lady Cui for the night.

"Tonight, my aunt will sleep with you. Tomorrow you will go to someone else's house to be a daughter-in-law. My aunt looks at you just like her big sister. I really don't want to part with it."

Xie Zhihui's tears fell down, and she threw herself into Yuan's arms, "Uncle, I don't even know how to thank you and elder sister!"

"Stupid child, what are you talking about? What kind of words of thanks do the family members say? This is really a gift."

Xie Tiao and Xie Zhongbai returned to Yanjing a long time ago, Xie Tiao is still on sick leave, these days, Zhang Quanjin came to the door every three days, Xie Tiao was entangled by him, but he still refused to give an inch, and even played a rogue, Zhang Quanjin said that he forced his daughter to death, so he vented his anger on the Xie family. What does it have to do with them?

In the early morning of the next day, there were Yuan Shi and Qian Shi in the backyard, and the nanny sent back by Hai Shi was delayed on the road, so she arrived and went to Xie Zhihui's room, and when no one was watching, she stuffed a thousand The two silver bills were given to Xie Zhihui, saying that the fourth aunt gave her the bottom of the box.

Tomorrow, Haishi sent a set of face masks, which are also worth one or two hundred taels of silver.

This woman is very good at talking, "The fourth wife also asked the servant girl to tell the girl that when we go to other people's homes and become their daughter-in-law, we should observe the etiquette and don't let others bully you. If you have any grievances, you must come back." explain."

Xie Zhihui nodded, with tears in his eyes, "How are the seventh and eighth brothers?"

Hai Shi gave birth to another son last year, who is about half a year old now.

"Okay, okay, when the fourth wife is busy, she is watched by a servant, she is really smart and strong."

Xie Zhihui couldn't help but miss her very much, and wondered when they would come back?

After half an hour, a **** came to the palace. Xie Tiao was receiving guests in the main hall. Hearing this, he hurriedly greeted him and said politely, "Elder-in-law, what orders does the emperor and empress have?"

This is fair and fair, "Master Xie, the emperor and empress are coming, so I sent a servant to come over first and say that there is no need to pick them up. What happened before is still the same today."

Xiao Xun and Xie Zhiwei can say that, but Xie Tiao can't really do that. Many people in the court have come, and Zhang Quanjin's scourge is still there. .

Xie Zhongbai was clever for a while, and quickly winked for someone to report to the back. Soon, Yuan Shi led the family to welcome him out. Xie Zhongbai waited all over the place inside and outside the house.

Xiao Xun and Xie Zhiwei's carriage stopped outside the door, Xie Tiao took a step forward and knelt on the ground, and the people behind him all knelt down, "Your Majesty, Empress Empress!"

"Grandfather, Mother!"

Xie Zhiwei hurriedly stepped forward to help her, but Xiao Xun was already a step ahead of her, and helped Xie Tiao to stand up with his own hands, "You are too polite!"

Xie Tiaoxin said, can I not kneel?

He just got up, looked at Xie Zhiwei, saw that she looked very good, with only one belly, as big as a basin on her body, and was very worried for a while, and handed her to Yuan Shi, "Be careful, be careful! "

Yuan naturally knew the seriousness, and helped Xie Zhiwei to walk into the house. Xie Zhihui and others had already got up, surrounded by Xie Zhiwei, all of them were very excited, their eyes were shining brightly, Xie Mingxi followed, and gently pulled Xie Zhiwei's sleeves.

Xie Zhiwei turned his head to see him, and said with a smile, "Go talk to your brother-in-law!"

"Hey!" Xie Mingxi jumped up and ran out.

Falling into Yuan Shi's eyes, she was naturally very happy. She and Xie Yuanbai have always been together and separated more these years, and they have no children. Just these two, I hope that they can be intimate and rely on each other in the future.

Xie Mingxi followed behind Xiao Xun like a little tail, Xie Tiao asked Xiao Xun to go to the study to talk, only a few cabinet elders were left, Xie Mingxi was about to go out, Xiao Xun called him, "Brother Xi, You stay and make tea for us!"

Zhang Quanjin and the others couldn't help but look at the child deeply, seeing that he had a pair of extraordinarily bright eyes, exquisite facial features, and a very decent manner. Zeng Shiyi knew Xie Mingxi, but Zhang Quanjin didn't, so he looked at Zeng Shiyi with questioning eyes.

Zeng Shiyi smiled, "I still remember that when I went to Peach Blossom Villa with the late emperor, the Fifth Young Master was only this tall?"

Xie Tiao nodded with a smile, "He was brought up by his sister since he was a child, until his sister came out of the cabinet, in the blink of an eye the children were gone, and we were getting old too!"

Zhang Quanjin finally understood that this child was actually the younger brother of the empress, and he was so loved by the emperor.

Xie Mingxi made the tea himself, and brought it to Xiao Xun, "Brother-in-law, the tea I made is not good."

Xiao Xun picked it up, took a sip, nodded appreciatively, "It's not bad, it's not too bad!"

After making the tea, he stood behind Xiao Xun. Xiao Xun leaned back on the back of the armchair, squinted his eyes and asked Zhang Quanjin, "Mr. Zhang Ge, how are you doing with the enthronement ceremony and queen conferment ceremony?"

When Xiao Xun said this, even Xie Tiao couldn't understand it. The enthronement ceremony and empress ceremony were led by King Jingjiang, with Zeng Shiyi and Chi Yude as assistants. Why did the emperor ask Zhang Quanjin?

Zhang Quanjin hurriedly got up, "Your Majesty, the King of Jingjiang County and Mr. Zeng and Mr. Chi are on business, and I don't know about it!"

As he said that, Zhang Quanjin glanced at Zeng Shiyi and Zeng Shiyi with some resentment in his eyes. The two were clearly sitting here, but they didn't speak.

"Oh, that's right!" Xiao Xun seemed to know nothing, turned his head and asked Xie Tiao, "Grandfather, what kind of job does Mr. Zhang Ge get?"

Xie Tiao didn't dare to call him "grandfather", and hurriedly got up respectfully, "If you go back to the emperor, Mr. Zhang Ge is the servant of the household department."

"The left servant of the household department!" Xiao Xun started to play with the dragon and phoenix jade bracelet in his hand again. He thought for a while and asked, "Mr. Zhang Ge, last year, was the income and expenditure of the household department balanced?"

"If you go back to the emperor, you will spend too much and have a serious deficit!" Zhang Quanjin frowned, why did the emperor ask these for no reason?

"Then tell me, how did you surpass the law? Where did the deficit come from?" Afraid that Zhang Quanjin would not know how to answer, "Just tell me, among the six departments, how much the Ministry of Industry surpassed, and how much the Ministry of War surpassed. , and the Ministry of Etiquette, oh, the Ministry of Punishment will definitely not surpass it, it should be mainly the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, both of which spend the most money."

Zhang Quanjin said, "Last year, the annual tax bill of the two capitals and the thirteen provinces was 39.52 million taels. The budget for last year was 38.25 million taels at the beginning of the year. However, at the end of last year, the bills reported by the various ministries totaled 52 million taels, and the annual deficit reached 124.8 million taels."
