"Uncle Wang," seeing that the other party was making too much trouble, Gao Shenghan couldn't help but straighten his face, and his tone was much more distant and cold. "Uncle Wang, don't cry with me. I remember that there are not only a lot of festivals every year, but also compared to the example of my own uncle in front of me. "Uncle An and her father are not only not a mother, not a father, in her grandfather's generation has long been separated, her grandfather and the former old prince An are brothers are good, but her father's reward for this cousin is exceptional, not to mention the title of the prince, and allowed to stay in Beijing to build a mansion, which is bigger than her own uncle and her father's own brother's face, and it is said that there is a fief, and it is not a poor country, in addition to handing over 20% of the year's output to the court, the rest are from the palace of King An, I don't believe that his family can eat them all. Even if there are more concubines and concubines in the family, it is enough for him to eat for three generations.

King An choked his cry, raised his hand and wiped his face, still the same sentence: "Virtuous nephew!" Your Majesty! Hooray! You don't know, uncle, I'm really difficult! ”

He also pointed out how cunning the fiefdom officials were, how difficult the taxes were, and how the annual production was, and almost called the officials sent by the imperial court to swallow his family's offerings.

"I think that when your father and uncle's good brothers are still there, there are this number of people who come up from below every year-" King An gestured, "But, now, just a few days ago, when the prince Shi who stayed in Qingzhou came, he only brought these ......" He gestured again, and continued to beat the ground and cry bitterly! "Even if the world is difficult, but this year's wind and rain have not flooded Qingzhou, and the wind and snow have not blown there, why is it less than in previous years! The old uncle is not convinced! The emperor must be the master of the ministers! "King An's family has a very good relationship with the first emperor, when Gao Shenghan's grandfather Emperor Qianwu ascended the throne, the previous generation of old King An made a great effort, and he died two sons and saved Emperor Qianwu's life, so there was a fief of Qingzhou. By the time of the first emperor Xiaozong, King An was firmly on his side, so the fief continued to be retained, and the prince's title was not downgraded.

Gao Shenghan rubbed his temples with a headache.

Dare to be affectionate, the officials below intercepted Hu and embezzled the property of King An's fief? So this old thing changed his way to ask himself for money to compensate for his shortcomings?

She raised her hand slightly. Gonggong Deng, who was standing on the side, immediately stepped forward with interest, and helped Wang Ye An up while persuading, and the ingots who stood in the corner as decorations immediately moved to the brocade stool and waited for the prince to sit down.

"What ......does Uncle Wang mean," Gao Shenghan tapped lightly on the hollow carved dragon head on the armrest of the rosewood dragon chair, "Is it to take care of it yourself?" ”

King An sobbed, was so frightened that he forgot to wipe his tears, raised his head and glared at the emperor, his lips twitched twice, and he replied tremblingly: "Minister...... Chen definitely didn't mean that! "Jokes, take care of yourself in the fiefdom, where can you be happy in the capital! Not to mention the charming and colorful green-waisted girl of Chunjiang Building, but walking on the street, other noble ministers met a good disrespect for themselves who also nodded their heads, what did they go to Qingzhou? There is not a single big official, and I see those mud-legged people dealing with those so-called local tyrants every day? Not to mention that if you return to the fiefdom, the silver taels handed over to the treasury every year will have to be doubled, and it will no longer be 20% of the total income, but 40%! Although there are also advantages, that is, Emperor Shangao can no longer bow to this nephew, and he also has a certain right to appoint and dismiss officials in the Qingzhou region - except for the largest one, the prefect of a state, this must be appointed by the imperial court...... Well, he can also be said to be the emperor of the soil, just like his two cousins who nest outside......

King An's face changed for a while, and Gao Shenghan didn't urge him, so he picked up the list of court officials and his in-laws, and looked at the family situation.

Father-in-law Deng is really a talent, and without waiting for his own orders, he spontaneously prepared this after finishing the records of the male pets in Houyuan, so that she could clearly know what kind of subordinates she had.

zuihou, Prince An doesn't want to return to the fiefdom, or directly entrust it to the imperial court to take care of, he collects taxes and profits every year, but he repeatedly emphasizes that he must severely punish those corrupt officials who hide and bully!

Gonggong Deng sent people out of the inner palace gate in a good voice, and then turned back.

Gao Shenghan was staring at a pink-white gentleman's orchid by the window, his face couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, it was so faint, but it was even more frightening.

The people in the palace all crept to change the hot tea for the king, and changed it for a salty snack newly developed by the imperial kitchen.

Gao Shenghan's eyes rolled, looking at the hall with carved beams and painted buildings and gold and treasures, and then thinking of the little money in the treasury, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Not to mention that King An was pitted, she was a dignified monarch of a country, and she was not also pitted by the moths below!

Open source and throttle are frugal, and those rats and moths will not save with her!

She's going to check! Check hard! Stern check! Who the hell swallowed her money!

At the court meeting again, the emperor gave an order:

The total population of each province and the area of cultivated land, mountainous area, and wasteland area are counted, as well as the yield per mu over the years, the yield per mu of the current year, the hydrological records of various places, the climate records, the main food crops, auxiliary crops, fisheries, salt industry, textiles, and the degree of commercial development are all filled in and handed in.

"Scatter!" Gonggong Deng roared majestically, ignoring the ugly faces of the courtiers, and happily followed Banzai.

"Master, the old slave feels that the master is becoming more and more martial and wise, and he has the demeanor of the first emperor and the first queen." Gonggong Deng smiled and looked at his master's more and more upright posture, handsome and chic words and deeds, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with letting this girl be the master of the world. I used to think that the master was brave, but now he is even more intelligent and unmatched! What are the other princes? The queen mother did it one step earlier, and it was right to abolish them!

Father-in-law Deng happily straightened his belly, which had grown a little recently.

Gao Shenghan was a little uncomfortable by the other party's admired star eyes, beckoned, and said, "Pick a few lovely people for me to relieve my boredom." "When you get off work, you have to have fun in time, and you can't solve difficult problems by herself!

Gonggong Deng immediately walked away.

Before the men in the back garden could get the news from the court, Gonggong Deng came over to pick people. There's no way, Grandpa Deng is good, not comparable to those nails who act cautiously and look ahead.

Looking at the five or six teenagers who were picked up, including Chen Zixiu, Murong Zhen's face turned pale.

Qin Feng leaned close to him and whispered, "We can't delay any longer." ”
