Wei Mingxu said: "Finance is the most important weapon of the country, not low taxes, but for the benefit of the common people. In the last years of the Qi Dynasty, the treasury was empty, and the imperial court could not afford to support officials, so officials could only be greedy, and officials and businessmen colluded, resulting in rich officials and poor countries.

Those corrupt officials and corrupt officials are often unkind to the rich, consumed by the desire for profit, and blindly treat and oppress the people, resulting in the people's misery. When the famine was rampant, the emperor had the heart but because the treasury was empty, there was no silver to send, resulting in the death of the country.

Nowadays, although the imperial court collects taxes twice as much as before, the people still have enough surplus food to be self-sufficient. The silver money is collected to the household department, and if there is a difficulty, the imperial court can allocate silver for disaster relief and open a warehouse to release grain.

It was also because of the wealth of the country that the imperial court had extra money to open Ji'an Hall and a nursing home to support the elderly and weak women and children.

The princess is afraid that she has lived in a corner for too long, thinking that this is a paradise, but she doesn't know that there is a Han, and it is time to go out and take a look at the world outside. ”

When Wei Mingxu talked about this time, there was a look of excitement in his eyebrows, and he was obviously quite satisfied with the country he had governed for more than ten years.

Princess Zhaohui heard Wei Mingxu say this, she didn't get angry, and her eyes were slightly relaxed, obviously after so many years, she was not an old woman who was closed off from the world.

I also pay attention to the political situation of the court outside, but after all, I have the hatred of destroying the country and destroying the clan, even if I have admiration for Wei Mingxu, and when I see it suddenly, it is also an enemy who meets, and it is extremely red-eyed, and it is inevitable that there will be no mercy.

"I am old, but I am neither deaf nor blind. If not, how can you sit down with me right now?

It's just that I'm here to ask you, since you have won this world, you should be kind to the people of the world. Choose good ministers and virtuous lords to govern the court. Now, why are you greedy for temporary comfort and leave the country to such a hairy boy?"

Wei Mingxu was silent for a long time when he heard this, sighed lightly, and then said: "The Three Emperors and the Five Emperors have been there for thousands of generations? Moreover, the emperor is not bad. ”

Princess Zhaohui sneered: "You are harsh on my father, saying that he is incompetent and faint, so you overthrew my father's rule and forced him to kill himself, but now you are so protective of your Wei family's own unscrupulous descendants, but it is really fair."

You are not afraid, in the future, there will be people like the ancestors of your Wei family who claim to be extraordinary, and they will also overthrow your little emperor on the same charge.

As you said, there is a virtuous person living in this world, and his virtue and talent are really enough to sit on this world and make the people of the world bow down to him?"

Wei Mingxu was speechless by Princess Zhaohui's heart-wrenching remarks.

And the old lady lying on the bed finally opened her eyes slowly at this moment, and grabbed Lin Zhixuan's hand, she had no one else in her eyes at the moment, only staring at Lin Zhixuan tightly, as if she wanted to vaguely remember his son's face from Lin Zhixuan's handsome appearance.

After a long time, the old lady's eyes moved away from Lin Zhixuan, and looked at a maid standing by the bed, or already a daughter-in-law, not very old, but she looked very stable, but she was a little similar to Dongmei.

The old lady was just a look, and the maid had already seen her intention, and hurriedly leaned forward and asked, "What does the old lady want?"

The old lady trembled and glanced at the makeup mirror table not far away, on which stood a large bronze mirror and several delicate jewelry boxes.

That maid has also taken care of the old lady's henchman for decades, and no one knows what the old lady thinks better than her. But after a look, the maid immediately went over, and did not delay in taking the jewelry box.

The old lady showed a vague smile of satisfaction on her face, looked at the girl, and seemed grateful, so she only asked her to hand over the jewelry box to Lin Zhixuan, and shook Lin Zhixuan's hand and said, "The most ...... Bottom...... You...... Look at ......."

Lin Zhixuan was a little distracted because she listened carefully to the conversation between Wei Mingxu and Princess Zhaohui. At this moment, when he heard this, he hurriedly opened the last layer of the jewelry box, only to see a jade pendant as red as blood lying inside.

Lin Zhixuan has always liked these small things, and her eyes lit up when she saw them, and she just looked at the old lady on the bed puzzled, and didn't dare to pick them up abruptly for a while.

It wasn't until she saw the old lady nodding that Lin Zhixuan gently took it and put it in her palm, and the maid on the side was already holding the jewelry box and putting it back in its original place.

Princess Zhaohui also put aside the competition with Wei Mingxu for the time being because the old lady woke up, but when she saw the jade pendant in Lin Zhixuan's hand, she was surprised.

It is a crystal clear Lantian chalcedony pendant, made of the color of maple leaves, the jade is warm and transparent, the carved lines are even smoother, natural, just a glance is a rare heirloom.

Lantian jade is rich in jade, black jade, white marble and topaz, but there is very little colored jade, this piece of carnelian is really rare in Lantian jade, and it is not worse than the chalcedony that Wei Mingxu gave to him at the beginning.

Princess Zhaohui was already frowning, and stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to snatch it from Lin Zhixuan's hand, but after all, because of her identity, she stopped her hand abruptly, and only looked at the old lady on the bed in disbelief and said, "Old sister, this jade pendant is actually on you......? You didn't even mention it to me......"

"Hey...... Hmph...... "The old lady hummed with difficulty, and it took a long time before she hoarse her voice and wanted to speak, but her throat seemed to be covered with phlegm and she couldn't make a sound.

The maid on the side hurriedly took a ginseng soup to rinse the old lady's mouth, and the old lady drank the ginseng soup, only to regain some strength slightly, and said slowly: "Jinyu...... Jinyu ...... Like...... Princess...... Forget it......"

These few words sounded to Wei Mingxu and Lin Zhixuan's ears, as if they were dumb riddles played by two old people, and those present, except for Princess Zhaohui, I am afraid that even the old lady's personal maid could not understand the meaning of these words.

This piece of jade, I'm afraid that except for Princess Zhaohui and the old lady, very few people know it in this Lengjia Villa.

This is the heirloom of the Qi Dynasty, is the founding emperor of the previous dynasty to the queen's love object, because of the jade quality, in the Qi Dynasty and the name of the Bi can still match. Moreover, there is also a heart-wrenching story in this.

However, it is said that the founding emperor of the previous dynasty was because of this maple leaf carnelian in the Yue Kingdom of the Three Kingdoms at that time, and by chance, he and the princess of Chu State had a wonderful marriage.

Later, Qi Taizu originally planned to let this carnelian be buried with his queen, but in his twilight years, he missed Empress Xiaoxianren, so he left this jade pendant by his side to see things and people.

After the death of Qi Taizu, he and Empress Xiaoxianren's son-in-law, inherited the throne, so they left this jade pendant to remember their father and mother, and later stayed in the royal palace.
