Chapter 281: Don't plan for eternity
But Confucian education is to keep the world in mind at every turn, not to seek a moment, but to seek eternity. Pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info nonsense, Confucius in ancient times, knew that in the future, an airplane as big as a house would be able to fly in the sky. It only takes an hour from Chang'an to Huiji. Don't be scared to death.
Thinking about it, it is more realistic to live in the present. There's no need to worry about the unseen, the untouchable.
Xue Qing could only explain Taifu and said: "The prince is still young, it is the time when Taoguang is obscure, and the current situation in the court, Bo Wangyuan still does not express his opinion." The emperor has enough headaches. ”
Taifu sighed and said: "The old minister also knows, but he just holds it in his heart and doesn't vomit unpleasantly." You must know that now the prince has a lot of his own ideas, even himself. I don't really agree with the White Deer Coin and the matter of the right to mint it. ”
Xue Qing was stunned for a while, could it be that the contradiction between Liu Ju and his father was really born and could not be adjusted. I started to do it at such a young age, and I will pay it back later?
The meaning of Taifu's coming here is more clear, and he expressed his dissatisfaction to the emperor through Xue Qing. and declare his opinion to the ministers.
In fact, it's a bit too much, because Xue Qing won't report Taifu's thoughts to the emperor at all, because that's the old lady's, and at the same time, Taifu said outside that he came to the door to directly denounce how the tyranny of Bailu Coin was bullish, and Xue Qing wouldn't care.
After the two of them finished eating, they let Ruhua clean up the leftovers. Taifu said in a good time: "Your Highness, Bowangyuan Taifu, young master, wash horses, how many white deer coins do you want to subscribe in total?" The old minister took it back with him. ”
Xue Qing looked sideways: "The money for the young master and the prince to wash the horse, you gave it together?" ”
Taifu said a little embarrassed: "Laughing, Your Highness, it was the crown prince's money, and the old minister was really shy in his pocket." Not much money. By the way, there is also His Royal Highness the Prince's share. ”
It seems that working in Bowangyuan is a good welfare. The prince is rich and young, so he is so foolish, right? asked Ruhua to take a look at the list, the task of the three officials of Bowangyuan was only one for each person, and after turning it over a few times, I didn't see the prince's name, which means that the prince didn't have to buy it at all? Neither list is available.
The sacrifice was made on four plates, jade, sacrifice, and wine. and gold. These four plates are the bottom of the four deer coins. Tsk, one 400,000 is 1.6 million. Qing officials really can't afford it.
The list says that as long as the three officials subscribe to one, that is, buy one get three free, and the money for drawing a white deer coin can bring back four, which is just enough.
As for the crown prince, the prince is an auxiliary sacrifice, so does it need to be a gift? After Xue Qing whispered to the Zhongshao Mansion, she learned that the prince did not use it.
Confirmed the list again and again: "Taifu only needs to give 1.2 million yuan to get back the twelve white deer coins used by the three officials." ”
Taifu was stunned: "Didn't you say 400,000 yuan a piece, why did the price drop again?" Can you buy one for 100,000? ”
You say that this old stubborn will not kick out the shady scene, and make trouble. Then he said hesitantly: "Well, this is the palace, the family price for the crown prince......"
Taifu was a little displeased and said: "Since there is a policy, how can you treat it differently, when this word spreads, it still makes people think that Bowangyuan has a part in the White Deer Coins." No way. Since it is twelve white deer coins, or according to 400,000 pieces, here is a hundred thousand dollars. Please sign for your Highness. As he spoke, he took out a stack of withdrawal vouchers issued by the treasury. It's the equivalent of a silver ticket.
Xue Qing rolled her eyes and said: "To tell the Taifu the truth, it is the emperor who sympathizes with the crown prince's hard work and does not want to see Bowangyuan's tight budget. It is a deliberately cut share. This is all what the emperor meant. ”
Taifu said angrily: "Never." Since it is to be issued, it must be treated equally, is this white deer coin a means for the emperor to strike at the princes and nobles? Such a thing, the old man, who is a retainer of the prince's family, will never agree. Please also ask Your Highness, to accept all the orders. ”
Xue Qing frowned, put the list away, how did you get this, take it? Will the emperor blame him, or will he start singing a show of making trouble in the Shaofu and denouncing the unfair policy after he went out?
Only a quarter of it, he doesn't do it, look at this meaning, he won't pay 1.2 million to kill and take away the twelve white deer coins, in this way, he feels that he has been beaten into a party of deer coins that have caused chaos in the dynasty. The fame that has been passed down from their family for generations, his status. His political ambitions did not allow him to do so.
Reject? Kicked out? That will objectively cause Bo Wangyuan to have no white deer coins in his hand, so when the emperor wants to clean up people, people don't all point to Bo Wangyuan, you see they don't have any, why do you want us to buy it. The emperor's bowl of water was uneven. And it will immediately trigger a boycott of the White Deer coin.
You think, Bo Wangyuan took the lead in refusing to subscribe to deer coins. That must be what the prince meant, with the prince taking the lead, anyone dares to follow the rush, then it will look good at that time.
Otherwise, send it directly to the emperor and let him deal with it? Forget it, the emperor has to be angry to death, and in the end it will be tragic to sprinkle the anger on the old lady's head.
Think twice. Xue Qing sighed and said, "Since that's the case, take it all as it is." ”
Then a middle and young man came forward and checked the withdrawal vouchers brought by Taifu one by one, and then went to the front to withdraw twelve Bailu coins, packed them in a brocade box, and handed them to Taifu. Taifu had a dark face, reached out and grabbed the brocade box and walked away.
It's really enough, pick up the bowl to eat meat, put down the bowl and scold her mother, Xue Qing was extremely aggrieved.
Fortunately, since the afternoon, people have come to subscribe one after another, some have come in person, some have let their subordinates, some have simply let the good relationship collect it on their behalf, and even the representatives of the princes and vassal kings from other places have begun to come to the door to subscribe.
But they are probably still the emperor's henchmen, and only these people are the first to please the emperor with heavy bleeding, in the hope that the emperor will continue to be close to their thoughts.
Who knew that the emperor had already prepared a return. This type of person basically only needs to subscribe for a quarter, or a third and a half, or something. This is the real surprise, I am ready to buy all my wife and son, and you said that it is enough to feel that you don't need so much money.
The trouble is that this type of person is strictly a black-box operation, so Xue Qing has to come to meet in person. The subscription office in the front yard was not open at all. Xue Qing felt a little wrong, but what could she do.
For example, when he was about to get off work, Tingwei Zhang Tang came, and he was directly sent over by the people below, and as soon as he came in, he arched his hand and said: "Oh, Your Highness, there are some things to do today, and I came late, but fortunately, Your Highness has not left Shaofu, which is really lucky."
