Chapter 210

Wei Hao said to Li Shimin that his mother was good to him, and Li Shimin was depressed, why didn't he like this kid, and he didn't treat him badly, right?

"This kid, don't be angry with Your Majesty, be careful that he cleans you up!" Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile and teasing.

"Yes, yes, father, sit down, you are the best for me!" Wei Hao hurriedly cooperated, and Empress Eldest Sun laughed happily.

"This rabbit cub, dare to joke with his father!" Li Shimin also laughed angrily, pointing at Wei Hao and scolding.

"Hehe, by the way, give you this, check it out for yourself!" As he spoke, Wei Hao took out the paper he had hidden in his sleeve pocket and handed it to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin opened it puzzled and found that they were all materials purchased by the court. One is a recorded price, and one is none.

"You mean, let me go outside and ask about the price, the price is very different?" Li Shimin looked up at Wei Hao and asked.

"It's big, the low one is three percent higher than the price on the market, if it's high, the price of paper, the false price is more than twice the price of our bulk price, father, how can the Ministry of Civil Affairs not lack money, I estimate that the Ministry of Civil Affairs, there are about 1 million yuan a year, flowing into those families!" Wei Hao nodded and said to Li Shimin.

"What?" Li Shimin stood up in shock at this moment, and the eldest grandson queen also looked at Wei Hao with a smile, 1 million yuan, the money that belongs to the court, all of it flows into the family, and the tax income of Datang is only about 3 million yuan a year, and some money will be posted here every year.

In addition, it is to roll over the money owed before to the next year, and if there is a lot of income in the next year, they will pay back some of it, but they never dreamed that it was something that they didn't have to worry about, but it was actually tossed like this by those families.

"I'm going to kill them!" Li Shimin was already gritting his teeth angrily and scolding at this moment.

"1 million yuan, good, good, no one to bully the royal family, bullying the royal family doesn't know how to settle accounts! Good! Empress Changsun also gritted her teeth and said. Wei Hao stood there, looking at the two of them.

"Hao'er, you know what? Every year, the queen mother saves 100,000 yuan from the inner money and handed it over to His Majesty, so that His Majesty can transfer it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

However, this money, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, it actually went into the pocket of the family, they are bullying the palace, bullying your mother and me! Your queen mother and I are in charge of the harem, and I haven't added a single piece of clothing for two years, that is, the clothes made when His Majesty ascended the throne, and the queen mother has been wearing them, just to save two dollars, so that His Majesty can solve the affairs of the court, they, they are too much, too much,

Come on, call Li Xiaogong, Li Daozong, Li Yuanjing to the palace! "Empress Eldest Sun is angry at the moment, her face is blue,

Wei Hao was also very surprised, he didn't expect that Empress Eldest Sun would react more than Li Shimin in this matter.

"It's too late, forget it, tomorrow!" Li Shimin immediately stopped Empress Changsun.

"Okay, tomorrow, early tomorrow morning, let them come over, the concubines don't clean them up, the concubines are angry, they are simply riding on the head of the palace to make a fortune, look at the jokes of the palace, the palace saves money for frugality, and they put it in their pockets,

The money of the palace, how can it be so easy to get, let them ask those children of the royal family if they can agree, they think that there is no one in our royal family, right? "Empress Eldest Sun is very angry, and wants to find those people from the royal family to come over and discuss how to clean them up.

"Well, let's talk about it tomorrow, yes, that's good, I know there's a problem, but I didn't expect it to be such a big problem!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao as he spoke,

Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin very incomprehensibly and said, "Father, you didn't think about going over to check, and besides, don't they settle accounts every year?" Don't you watch? ”

"There will be no such details for me, they are all a general ledger, and there are some big items, such as how much money was taken by the Ministry of War, how much money was taken by the Ministry of Industry, how much was taken by other departments, and how much was spent on buying things, but there is no breakdown!" Li Shimin said with a wry smile at Wei Hao.

"Father, why don't you ask?" Wei Hao still asked suspiciously, he didn't know about such an obvious thing.

"Ask? Who told you, they said that the accounts have not yet come out, and whatever accounts you want, they will give you a good one, what can you see? If it weren't for the general ledger, if you were to calculate this year's income and expenditure, do you think they would tell me the truth? Li Shimin still said with a wry smile.

"Their courage is too great, aren't they afraid of being slashed all over the house?" Wei Hao still couldn't understand that the family was too bold.

"It's all over the house, ha, you think it's so easy, I don't know how many ministers will intercede when the time comes, if the plea fails, they will say outside that I kill indiscriminately, the court, it looks like I control it, but the following things are all controlled by the family, this time the Ministry of Civil Affairs has checked the accounts, you should understand, I want to change the situation, Hao'er, it's okay to assist me?" Li Shimin sat there and said to Wei Hao.

"Father, I've been assisting you, okay? It's you, can you not pit me if you're fine! I also said that I was lazy, I was not lazy, how many things did I do for my father? Ordinary ministers don't help their fathers like this, do they? Wei Hao immediately looked at Li Shimin and complained.

"Yes, yes, yes, you really helped me a lot, a lot, and I remember it!" Li Shimin immediately nodded and said,

At this time, a eunuch came in from outside and said to Empress Changsun: "Niangniang, the food is ready, do you need to serve it?" ”

"Come on, besides, get some fruit!" Empress Eldest Sun said to the eunuch.

"Yes, sis!" The eunuch went out immediately, and after a while, the food was delivered, and Wei Hao was not polite, anyway, they all finished eating, so they ate alone, and after a while, Li Lizhi also came over.

"Why are you here?" Empress Eldest Sun smiled and questioned Li Li.

"I went to Wei Hao's house, my aunt is very sad now, because many people have given New Year's gifts to his family, and their family needs to return the gift, but they can't make small snacks, small snacks are controlled by the nobles and those families, and my aunt can't, I can't make it, I can't take it out, isn't it that I have two recipes here, I'll take it to Wei Hao's house, and I'll eat at his house!" Li Lizhi sat down with a smile and said.

"Oh, yes, there are still recipes in the palace, take two of them!" Empress Eldest Sun nodded and said,

Wei Hao was swallowing the food, and when he heard the eldest grandson queen say this, he immediately waved his hand to signal that he didn't need it, and after swallowing the food, he said: "No, it's not delicious, I'll get it, don't worry, it's delicious, I'm busy, if I'm not busy, I'll have it done a long time ago!" ”

"Will you make a snack?" Empress Eldest Sun looked at Wei Hao and asked in surprise, and Li Lizhi was also staring at Wei Hao.

"Yes, what's not going to happen, eat, just think about it, the dim sum in the palace is not delicious, I'm panicked, I can't swallow it without water!" Wei Hao said to the eldest grandson queen.

"Rabbit cub, that's the best dim sum in the palace, and my father gave you the best to eat!" Li Shimin also thought of this matter, and said to Wei Hao depressedly.

"It's not delicious, it's not delicious, I didn't say that you don't have my best, don't worry, I'll get it when I go back, let my mother prepare some things, and send it to you when the time comes, let you see, what is a small snack!" Wei Hao smiled and said to them.

"Then the queen mother is looking forward to it!" Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile, she was still looking forward to what Wei Hao did, as long as Wei Hao said what he wanted to do, he would definitely be able to do it successfully, and it was very good.

"Hmm!" Wei Hao nodded and continued to eat.

After eating, Wei Hao said goodbye, the time was not early, plus the cold weather, Wei Hao definitely needed to go home, back home, Wei Hao asked his mother to prepare some rice, flour and rice flour, all of which were yellow, not snow-white flour at all.

"Mother, you didn't take it wrong, this is flour and rice flour, why is it yellow? It's not corn flour, is it? Wei Hao looked at them in shock and asked.

"Nonsense, what is corn flour Niang has never seen, this is flour and rice flour!" Wang looked at Wei Hao and said, but he didn't blame anything, Wei Hao never cared about such a thing, just eat it.

"No, no wonder the cakes I ate were all yellow, I thought it was too much oil at first, but I didn't see how much oil there was on the flatbread, okay, mother, I don't want flour and rice noodles, I'll make it myself, hey, is it too late?" Wei Hao sat there and said worriedly, this is not what he needs, thinking of this,

But the boast has gone out, if you don't make it, it's a bit embarrassing, thinking of this, Wei Hao can only go back to the room, design a machine to peel off the skin of wheat, and at the same time grind it into flour, the same is true for rice, Wei Hao is busy in the study, but he can be regarded as getting those two machines out,

There is no engine these days, and horses are still needed to pull it, so Wei Hao made sure that he could achieve the results he needed before going to sleep!

Early the next morning, Wei Hao selected some more confidential parts and handed them to Duan Lun of the Ministry of Industry to help him build them, and the other parts were handed over to the blacksmith at his home for them to make them, so that they could make them for themselves today.

On the side of the inner palace, Li Xiaogong, Li Daozong, and Li Yuanjing had already arrived, sitting on the side of the Lizheng Palace, listening to Empress Changsun talk about what Wei Hao said last night.

"What, millions of dollars, but is it true?" Li Xiaogong immediately stood up at this moment, his face turned purple with anger,

And Li Daozong's hands were trembling, and Li Yuanjing's eyes were also wide, and he couldn't believe it was true.

"Your Majesty has already gone to investigate the actual price of the materials they purchased, and the palace doesn't know about this matter in the palace, and you don't know either? I don't know if they will take away the money from the court like this, and the money that the palace saves from the inner government every year will be sent to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the result? Well!

What the hell are you doing out there? I don't know this kind of news, so that the money that belongs to the court and the royal family flows into their hands, how did you princes behave? How? Empress Eldest Sun stared at them and asked very angrily,

At this moment, Li Xiaogong clenched his fists tightly in anger, he really didn't know about this matter, he only knew this money, their family got it but how much they got it, who knows, and they don't know if it's so big, is it the queen now, they don't dare to speak, they don't dare to refute a word.

"This palace doesn't know what you should do, this money, they need to spit it out to this palace, and spit out the money that belongs to the royal palace to this palace, the court didn't give them a lot of money, and they gave a lot of money, enough for them to live a good life, but as a result, they want to live a luxurious life,

Take the money from the court and live a luxurious life, this palace doesn't agree, no wonder the money is not enough every year, the money turned out to go into their pockets, you~" Empress Changsun pointed at the three of them.

"Mother, we were wrong, leave this matter to us, we will definitely make them vomit!" Li Daozong also stood up and said to Empress Eldest Sun with reassurance.

"Don't do it now, wait for Hao'er to finish the calculation, otherwise it will startle the snake, and the reason why I tell you now is to let you go to the secret investigation,

Also, those children of the royal family, do they have talents, do they know that when they go to the painting boat and the Qinglou, there is no one to do things?

You, give me a good reprimand for those royal children, the royal family gives them money every year, so that they can live a good life, but it is not for them to enjoy the plot, but they must not care about the affairs of the country, if they know the news in advance and report it to you, you will report it to the palace, why did you come to this point?

Well? Tell them that the palace is very angry with them, and if this matter is not handled well, all the benefits in the future will be halved, and they themselves don't know how to maintain it, so they rely on Your Majesty and the palace to maintain it. How can Hongu have so much time for such a thing? Well? Empress Changsun continued to reprimand them, none of them dared to speak, they all lowered their heads, very angry!

"Investigate secretly, get the money back to the palace, if you can't get it back, don't say that the palace doesn't take care of the royal children, what does the palace do with so much waste? Well? Also, the royal children, there are not many who are good at learning, otherwise, the court will be controlled by the family like this, let the palace rely on the son-in-law to handle things, if there is no son-in-law of the palace, the palace is counting on you, you will be ridiculed by them for a lifetime, or even several lifetimes! Empress Eldest Sun continued to reprimand.

"Niangniang, after I go back, I will pay close attention to this matter, including the matter of reading, in the future, if I don't study, I will give less money, I can't point to the royal family to live, I am just playing in Chang'an!" Li Xiaogong said to the eldest grandson.

"That's the best, anyway, you remember it for Bengong, it's too embarrassing, Bengong didn't sleep well all night last night!" Empress Eldest Sun said to the three of them.

"It's our bad work that makes Niangniang angry!" Li Xiaogong said again.

"Niangniang, don't worry, we will take care of this matter when we go back!" Li Yuanjing also stood up and said to Empress Eldest Sun.

"Okay, this palace knows, it's still the same sentence, first investigate secretly, but don't pit Hao'er in this palace, when the matter is clear, you will make trouble again, this palace wants to let the family take off a layer of skin this time, and this palace should be so humiliated!" Empress Eldest Sun looked at them angrily and said.

"Yes!" The three of them stood up and arched their hands.

"Eh, okay, sit down, sit down! Your Majesty's side, don't go, he is also angry now, if you go, it is estimated that you will be scolded, and now Your Majesty is also secretly investigating this matter, in short, this matter needs to be explained to the people of the world!

You need to pay attention to the future, sometimes you still need to maintain the dignity of the royal family, but you can't be trampled on by them. Empress Eldest Sun softened her tone at them and said,

They also nodded, and then began to talk,

And Li Shimin sent his own henchmen to inquire about those prices, especially the price of the procurement time recorded above, and inquired as much as possible.

Wei Hao didn't care about those things, he still continued to settle accounts, and at night, as soon as Wei Hao went out of the house, he saw Wang Kui and Cui Yu standing at the door waiting for him.

"Master Wei, if you have time, let's go to Juxian Building for dinner? The little one is the east! Cui Yu looked at Wei Hao and said with a smile.

"I'm not free, I'm still worried about it, now many nobles have sent gifts to my family, but my family doesn't know how to return the gift, the dim sum has not been done, my father goes back, and I still need to make dim sum, otherwise, it will be a big shame!" Wei Hao looked at them and waved his hand and said.

"Ah, make a snack, Lord Wei, are you still doing this? Besides, it's good to leave such a thing to the next person to do, so why do you have to do it yourself? Cui Yu said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"They won't either, I'm going to think about it, okay, I have received your intentions, and I know your purpose, I can only say, I will try my best to protect you, but I have also found out now, it's difficult, your hands and feet are too big, I can't protect them,

I will give you a suggestion, let the patriarch of their family come, those in charge of your family in the capital, it is estimated that they will not be able to handle this matter well, if it is not good, many people will lose their heads, if your patriarch comes over and has a good talk with His Majesty, I think, you still have a glimmer of life, it is your business to listen or not! Wei Hao looked at them with a smile and said.

"What, this? Lord Wei, we don't have a hand! Cui Yu subconsciously said to Wei Hao, and after speaking, he felt that he was wrong, saying this in front of Wei Hao, isn't he looking for death?
