077 Making a living in private
The emperor actually has a private treasury? Xiao Yao couldn't believe it at all.
He Yu looked at Xiao Yao, whose eyes were round and cat-like, and patted her head funny, "Why can't the emperor keep it private?" ”
"But...... However, isn't the whole world the emperor? Why do you need a private treasury? Xiao Yao said that she couldn't quite understand.
"That's the money of the treasury, not the emperor's money." He Yu said, "A huge country, to support the army, to support the courtiers, as well as disaster relief, etc., if the money in the treasury can be used by the emperor at will, it must not be the Ming Jun's doing." ”
He Yu didn't say much, but Xiao Yao still understood a little, and nodded thoughtfully, "Oh, so the emperor has to have his own special small treasury, whether it is money or anything else, that is the emperor's own things, right?" ”
"Yes." He Yu kissed Xiao Yao, "Generally speaking, it is some filial tribute from all over the country, as well as those tributes when all countries come to the court, the emperor will put them in the private treasury when he sees them, and some will be rewarded to our ministers or concubines." ”
As soon as she said this, Xiao Yao said that she understood.
Xiao Yao pondered for a long time at night, but when she was sleeping, she couldn't help but say to He Yu, "Why don't we do some business too?" ”
"Huh?" He Yu rolled over and sat up, "Why did you suddenly think of this problem?" ”
"Uh," Xiao Yao scratched her hair, "Whether we have land or money now, it is all given by the palace." In case, ah, I am in case, if the court takes it back...... Let's ...... then."
Xiao Yao's words are quite difficult, after all, He Yu is so favored by the emperor, although He Yu and Xiao Yao both know what the reason for the emperor's favor is He Yu, but this does not mean that He Yu will fall out of favor. Saying this, Xiao Yao cautiously watched He Yu's expression change, after all, she was still afraid that he would be angry,"
He Yu listened to Xiao Yao's words, but he was stunned for a moment, then laughed, pounced on Xiao Yao, pressed her on the bed, and kissed her regardless of it, and said with a smile while kissing, "Why is my Yaoyao so cute!" ”
Xiao Yao was a little overwhelmed by his sudden suddenness, and finally pulled him out of He Yu's arms, "What do you mean?" ”
"It's not interesting, I just think you can think about our family, I am very touched." It's autumn, and the weather at night is still a little cold, He Yu simply stuffed Xiao Yao into the quilt, and then took the quilt into his arms and rubbed her hair.
Xiao Yao shook her head, trying to shake off the salty pig hand on her head, and glared at He Yu, "Nonsense, now the Xuanping Mansion is also my home, who cares if I don't care?" ”
He Yu let out a burst of happy laughter, patted her head, pressed his forehead against Xiao Yao's forehead, and said softly, "Don't worry, even if the emperor raids our home, we won't starve to death." ”
"Phew, what are you talking about!" Xiao Yao hurriedly snorted twice, but then asked curiously, "Really?" ”
"Nature." He Yu smiled and nodded.
I pressed it at the head of the bed, and a dark grid appeared on the wall, Xiao Yao was very surprised, she slept in this place every day, and she never knew that there was a mechanism here! He Yu "shhhhhh Xiao Yao opened the small book, which was densely filled with information about He Yu's shops, houses, and some private business dealings.
Some of the less conspicuous ones are recorded under He Yu's name, and some are not recorded He Yu's name, they are all people Xiao Yao has never heard of or just seen, He Yu whispered, "These people are all friends of life and death on the battlefield between my grandfather and father, my father and these people used to be fateful friends, after my father died in battle, they returned to the mountains and forests, and I found them all one by one a year ago to help me take care of these things." ”
"They all listen to you?" Xiao Yao still didn't believe it, although Xiao Yao would still understand the kind of feelings in the army, but would these passions really return the business they had worked so hard to take care of to He Yu? After all, people are always selfish.
He Yu smiled slightly, he didn't seem to be worried about these at all, he said, "These people used to be the emperor's dead soldiers, but they were sacrificed by the emperor, my father saved these people with his life, what do you think?" ”
"You...... What do you mean......" Xiao Yao felt that she should have heard a terrible secret, and glared incoherently.
He Yu pursed his lips and nodded, "That's right, that's it." ”
"For ...... Why ......"
"People in high positions are suspicious, suspicious and cause indiscriminate killing of innocents," He Yu's lips pursed into a line, and the arm holding Xiao Yao also tightened, Xiao Yao reached out to hug He Yu back and stroked his back. He Yu's heart warmed slightly, his chin rested on Xiao Yao's neck socket, and his cheek rubbed Xiao Yao's cheek, signaling that he was fine, "So after their father died, these people either voluntarily unloaded their armor and returned to the field, or they were simply blown up." ”
“…… How do you know? There was a tremor in Xiao Yao's voice that she couldn't even notice.
"When I was very young," He Yu thought for a while, "when I was about fifteen or sixteen years old, I knew something vaguely, but in fact, I didn't know everything until now, and I was still investigating." ”
Later, Xiao Yao felt that there was no need to ask, she hugged He Yu, for the first time she was suddenly so distressed about the man in her arms, she kissed the corner of He Yu's mouth, He Yu quickly turned against the guest and encircled Xiao Yao in his arms.
The red candles and tears were all over the night, and the hibiscus tent was warm.
For the first time, Xiao Yao found that she could really stretch out so freely in front of a man. He Yu looked at the distracted woman in front of him with a smile in his eyes, my waiting and watching, after all, did not disappoint me......
The next day, when He Yu came over to have lunch with Xiao Yao, he said, "There will be a Mid-Autumn Festival dinner in the palace in two days, and you and I will go with you then." ”
"Me? Can I go? ”
"Naturally, you are my princess, and you should have attended." He Yu said seriously.
"Oh, okay," since that's the case, there's nothing to say, Xiao Yao thought for a while and continued to ask, "Then will it be a male and female table at that time?" Or are they divided into different seats? ”
"Before the banquet starts, there are men and women seats, and you will be with me after you are seated." He Yu patted Xiao Yao's head to reassure her, and then said, "You don't know much about the rules in the palace, I sent you to Concubine Chen's mother earlier that day, and you and Concubine Chen will go over together." ”
Xiao Yao knew that He Yu arranged this way to make her feel more comfortable, a man or a man in a high position can consider a woman so carefully, which is definitely the envy of women all over the world.
After He Yu took two bites, he continued, "I estimate that the emperor will have to marry the crown prince at this dinner. ”
"Really? The prince hasn't married yet? Xiao Yao also thought it was quite strange.
"The crown princess doesn't know yet, and it is estimated that the emperor can't make up his mind to delay it for so long, but he has also accepted two concubines for the prince over the years. The prince is now old, and if he doesn't get married, he is afraid that he will provoke the criticism of the courtiers, even if the emperor is under pressure, the prince's marriage should be decided within this year. When He Yu said this, he seemed very calm, as if he was analyzing the current situation.
But Xiao Yao doesn't know why, she just loves to look at him, and she always feels that he is really handsome.
"The crown princess, and the crown prince ......"
"Naturally, no, the two of them are afraid that they haven't even met." He Yu shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression at Xiao Yao, "In fact, for the royal children, marriage is a tool, whether it is to win over themselves to power, or to have other roles, whether it is the prince or other princes, there are too many interests involved, and it is not simple." ”
"That's just as well." Xiao Yao recalled that the political marriages in the previous life, wealthy marriages and the like, seemed to be the same.
"So, in fact, it's still good to be a so-called favored gentleman by the emperor," He Yu put down the chopsticks in his hand and scraped Xiao Yao's nose, "You know that this king's choice of a daughter-in-law can still be at the will of this king, isn't it?" ”
Xiao Yao smiled embarrassedly, but she was secretly happy in her heart. Seeing Xiao Yao's snickering appearance, He Yu's mood also changed a lot, and after thinking about it, he said, "There are three days of rest in the Mid-Autumn Festival, shall we go to Zhuangzi?" ”
Xiao Yao knew that He Yu had a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing for a long time, so he nodded, "Okay, go relax for a while." I feel suffocated in this capital. ”
"Hmm." He Yu smiled and nodded,
After dinner, the servants removed the dishes and plates, and Xiao Yao chatted with He Yu.
"On the day I entered the palace, was there anything I had to prepare?" Xiao Yao thought about it, and finally asked.
"It's nothing," He Yu patted her head, "and the emperor's congratulatory gift, I will prepare it here, and then you can look at the list, and then Concubine Chen's side will look at the preparation of one or two things, and when the time comes, Zhao Hezhong will give you the list in the treasury, and you can look at it and pick it." ”
Xiao Yao thought for a while and nodded, "It's okay, anyway, whether it's your warehouse or mine, it's almost the same, it's not bad." ”
"Our Xuanping Mansion still divides your and my treasury?" He Yu raised his eyebrows, "It's just that we can't put too many things to fit, so we just added two more warehouses!" ”
"Yes, yes, it's that two more warehouses have been added, and in the future, we will call the warehouses No. 123, and we will number it like this." Xiao Yao also followed He Yu's words.
"That's a good idea, so it's done." He Yu stroked his palm and expressed his approval. R1152
