Chapter 560: The Abacus is Planned

The emperor smiled coldly, and his eyes became colder and colder when he looked at the second prince, "According to what you say, I don't have to send the soldiers in the border city to ring silver, and I also need to spend silver." Do you know that if you don't give the soldiers silver, those soldiers will definitely not work for the country anymore, and what awaits you at that time is the destruction of the country, and you, the second prince, will only be a slave of the country. It's stupid, how can I have such a short-sighted son as you. I order you to hand over 400,000 taels of silver, and you can do it yourself! ”

The second prince stood on the side aggrievedly, and he was not happy to let the emperor reprimand him, but he didn't expect his father to be so ruthless in the end, and directly let himself hand over 400,000 taels of silver, where to get it himself? Isn't this forcing people to death? The second prince felt pain when he thought of the silver, and then instinctively looked at the eighth prince on the side, and then looked at the eighth prince's gaze, which became colder and colder. All of this is caused by the Eighth Emperor, if it weren't for where he came from so many things, how could his father scold himself?

The second prince looked unconvinced, "Father, why did the eighth emperor's brother donate 200,000 taels, but the sons and sons want to donate 400,000 taels?" Even if the father likes the eighth emperor brother, he can't be so eccentric, right? ”

The second prince said stupid things, and the more the eldest princess listened, the more she couldn't listen to it. More and more I feel that I don't know whether it's good or bad if I don't compare, and after having the comparison of other princes, the eldest princess now feels that the eighth prince is much stronger. The eldest princess looked at the second prince with cold eyes, and reprimanded lukewarmly, "The second emperor brother's words are boring, the eighth emperor brother has no maternal concubine to help, let alone the support of the maternal family, these 200,000 taels of silver are the entire net worth of the eighth emperor brother." According to the palace, 400,000 taels of silver may not be all the belongings of the second emperor's brother! If the second emperor thinks that his father is unfair, he might as well donate his entire net worth to comfort the soldiers in the army. ”

Concubine Ning, the mother of the second prince, was naturally very unhappy when she saw her son being reprimanded by the emperor and letting the eldest princess receive this training. I didn't care that I was not suitable to speak on this occasion, and smiled coldly, "What the eldest princess said is really interesting, the son of this palace is theorizing about the amount of silver, not all of his net worth." The eighth prince does not have the support of his mother and concubine, and he does not have the support of his mother, this is not our fault! Don't donate a lot just because the second prince has a mother concubine, and the second prince of the maternal family has to donate a lot, and it's not okay yet!

The eldest princess has a daughter who can make money, and she is a businessman and a shop, and she is the wife of the prince of the country's mansion. Have you ever thought about the lives of others? Besides, the second prince didn't say that he wouldn't donate, but he just felt that he couldn't donate 400,000 taels, so how could he say it compared to the eldest princess and the eighth prince! ”

The emperor's eyes looked at Concubine Ning, and he didn't have much favor for Concubine Ning, but because Concubine Ning was tall, she gave Concubine Ning a high position as soon as she entered the palace. And Concubine Ning also gave birth to a prince in a hurry, which is why the queen embarrassed so many concubines, but she didn't feel sorry for Concubine Ning, of course, these two people didn't fight in private, but these two people never tore on the surface.

"Concubine Ning, do you think what I said will be taken back?" The emperor just threw down such a sentence lukewarmly.

However, Concubine Ning heard the meaning of the warning, and knew that her words had angered the emperor, and it was impossible for the emperor to take back his fate. It seems that the 400,000 taels of silver must be taken out and handed over no matter what. Concubine Ning replied aggrievedly: "The emperor's words will naturally not be taken back, and the second prince will definitely hand over 400,000 taels of silver to give a heart to the soldiers in the border city." ”

The emperor smiled faintly, but the smile was only superficial, "Since Concubine Ning is so sensible, presumably others don't have to be embarrassed!" ”

After speaking, the emperor said to the big eunuch beside him: "You go and register all the officials, and see how much silver everyone will donate together. This year is a good year for the soldiers in the border city, so that they can feel the heart of me and the people. ”

The old eunuch nodded respectfully, "What the emperor said is that the soldiers in the border city will definitely feel it." ”

And at this moment, the officials below were all in pain. In this way, the emperor is going to watch everyone donate silver, and everyone must set down how much silver to donate in front of them, and if anyone dares to give less silver, they will eventually get the crime of bullying the king.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally gritted their teeth, donate, the second prince is the best example, directly asked the emperor to donate 400,000 taels of silver, and Concubine Ning also reprimanded the emperor. Who would dare to refute it in public now? But while everyone was bleeding, they could only hate the eighth prince and the eldest princess, if it weren't for these two people, everyone wouldn't have to donate silver, and they wouldn't have to be in pain.

The emperor looked at the silver taels registered by the hundred officials, and showed a full smile, these silver are enough for the soldiers in the border city to distribute this year's ringing silver. It seems that his ministers are very rich, otherwise how could they get so much silver? "The actions of the ministers have made me very comforted, and I know that you must be worried about the border city, and you will contribute to the soldiers, and you will solve my worries."

Although the eighth prince and the eldest princess don't know how much silver is registered on it, it must not be a small number to satisfy their father. At the same time, the Eighth Prince also knew that he had offended the powerful today, but the Eighth Prince was not afraid of these people. In Han Yuntian's matter, all of these people have their hands, as long as the father starts to shuffle the cards, these people will disappear from the court.

Naturally, everyone had to be humble and said, "Don't dare!" ”

Everyone was obviously unwilling, but they had to look respectful on their faces, which was really ridiculous to think about. The final winner of this banquet is needless to say that it is the Eighth Prince. The eighth prince won a good reputation and won the favor of the emperor, and at the same time exhaled from the same nostril as the eldest princess. It's really not worth it when you think about it, this silver is out, but in the end, it was the Eighth Prince who was cheaper, and it was the Eighth Prince who made it perfect.

Naturally, all the princes did not report their anger, so they all went to the Second Prince's Mansion together, and when facing a common enemy, they naturally united together. The second prince looked at the princes in total, and he was also annoyed. "You say, why don't we princes fall into the eyes of our father, my father just takes a fancy to a cheap thing, what is the eighth prince, a cheap seed of a palace girl. I didn't expect my father to have such a thought, this time we must not let people rob us of our things again. ”

"That is, the eighth prince has a low status, how can he be the prince? Which of our princes is not of noble birth, and since ancient times, they have all grown up without heirs, and they are naturally the second princes if they are either abolished. The second prince also once thought that only he could be the crown prince. (To be continued.) )
