Guan Ning never thought that if he couldn't get on the table like "making a fake account", he would jump out of the mouth of King Ning Chitose Zhu Youzhen so magnificently!

Looking at Zhu Youzhen's sincere eyes, it took Guan Ning a long time to figure out that his master had taken a fancy to the silver of the Shang Diet Supervisor and wanted a piece of the pie!

Guan Ning has been in the palace for many years, and he has been deeply relied on by Wei Zhongxian, and he was entrusted with important tasks at a young age, so he naturally knows the twenty-four yamen in charge of the internal supervisor well.

You must know that these 24 yamen perform their own duties, but their importance is not the same, and it can even be said that there is a world of difference. Important people such as the celebrant supervisor, who has the right to approve the red, not only fights with the cabinet, but also has a faint situation above the cabinet in recent years under the care of his godfather Wei Zhongxian.

Another example is the Imperial Horse Supervisor, if you want to be righteous and righteous, and you are also dedicated to raising horses for the emperor, but in fact, this Imperial Horse Supervisor is in charge of army scheduling, which is equivalent to the military department in the imperial city, and the actual power is still above the military department.

But those less important yamen are more miserable. For example, the Divine Palace Supervisor, who is very ruthless when he hears the name, is actually only responsible for the sprinkling and daily management of the Taimiao Temple and various royal temples, which is boring.

Another example is the treasure banknote division, because the Ming Dynasty used a paper money called treasure banknote as legal tender, and those who don't know it thought it was a banknote printing factory that issued currency, but in fact, it was only responsible for making thick and thin straw paper. The person who came up with this name is simply too talented, and this is the real way to treat money like dung!

Another example is the Huanyi Bureau, which is not only for washing clothes, but also for brushing buckets. I couldn't go to that place, and it stinked for half a mile against the wind.

Relatively speaking, Shang Shan Jian is a rare and good unit, and he is very rich. Because he was responsible for the diet of tens of thousands of people in the entire Forbidden City, from the emperor to the palace maids, the Shangshan supervisor naturally had the right to purchase grain, rice, meat and vegetables.

Don't underestimate this logistics department, there are millions of taels of silver in hand every year, and there is no need to say how much is greasy in it. Therefore, the eunuchs who can be in charge of the Shang Shan Prison are all cronies of the eunuch leader. It is probably not an exaggeration to say that the Shang Shan Supervisor is the cash machine of the Master of Ceremonies.

But since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, except for Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, who has been personally involved and has been slightly stricter, no emperor has paid attention to Shang Shanjian. The emperors who are more accomplished, such as Chengzu Zhu Di, Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji, and Xiaozong Zhu Youji, are all daily opportunities, and there are always busy national affairs.

And those emperors who are not very reliable have their own interests and hobbies. For example, Emperor Wuzong and Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao like to toss, always thinking of sneaking out to play while the minister is not paying attention; is also like Emperor Shizong and Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, who likes mortals to cultivate the truth, and the dragon is present all day long; For example, Guangzong Zhu Changluo, who was most enthusiastic about exercising in bed, endured it for decades, and finally became the emperor. Another example is the current saint and Emperor of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao, who is a top player and senior carpenter, who often forgets to sleep and eat in order to create new furniture.

In short, the leader is very busy, and the leader's needs are more mental, and he has no time to deal with the supervisor.

The emperor doesn't care, and the others are even happier to care, anyway, the silver spent by the Shangshan supervisor is all internal silver. To put it bluntly, it is the emperor's private money. If you don't eat for nothing, you won't eat for nothing, and if you eat for nothing, who won't eat for nothing?

Therefore, although Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established the palace regulations, including the Shang Diet Supervisor, the dietary standards in the palace were stipulated in more detail according to different identities. But the rules are dead, people are alive, no matter how perfect the rules are, as long as the people who implement them want to take advantage of the loopholes, it is not easy to catch.

For example, Zhu Yuanzhang stipulates that only one chicken dish can be served at each meal. Then it stands to reason that one chicken will be enough. But perhaps if an emperor only likes to eat wingtips, then in order to meet the emperor's needs, he must buy at least ten chickens. Anyway, the statute only stipulates the first dish, but not the number of chickens used in this dish. Although the next emperor will not be embarrassed, this rule has been changed to ten chickens, and it will not be changed back if it is changed back.

As long as this kind of opening is opened, the back will not be able to be stopped. It's not easy to find an excuse? For example, if there is a recent outbreak of avian flu, we must strengthen the inspection and quarantine work, and we cannot cut off the supply, so we must increase the number of purchases, and choose one out of a hundred. So, although only one chicken was served on the emperor's table, the Shang Shan Jian bought a hundred chickens. At that time, there was no refrigerator, and meat was not like food, so what should I do? I had to deal with them all at a low price, and basically whoever sent it was returned to whom, which was not much different from giving it for nothing.

The market price of a chicken is only four cents of silver, but of course the one that is specially supplied to the Forbidden City cannot be calculated according to the market price, and how high is the cost of free-range breeding, so it has to be sold for two or three taels of silver. That is to say, every day, every meal of the emperor, one of the dishes, costs more than two hundred taels of silver. According to this calculation, millions of silver may not be enough, and it is estimated that the budget will have to be increased.

For more than 200 years, Shang Shan Jian has made a fortune in such a muffled voice, and he can barely achieve the balance of interests, and only let the emperor be the main wrongdoer. Everyone knew each other well and never made a mistake. But now Zhu Youzhen, a living treasure, has creatively proposed to start a new stove, and it is not counted to get rid of the Shang Shan Supervisor, but also to let the Shang Shan Supervisor hand over the corresponding silver taels, isn't this equivalent to cutting meat from others? !

Looking at Zhu Youzhen's shameless smile, Guan Ning couldn't help but wonder while his heart was dripping blood: This King Ning is also a prince in size, and all his work is nothing more than eating, sleeping, and playing with women, and he also holds the country's title for nothing, which is the annual salary of ten thousand stones, and how can it be more than ten thousand taels when it is converted into silver.

That's not all, it's useless for him to ask for money! He is not like an ordinary official, who has to pay the salaries of a large group of people out of his own pocket; The prince's attendants all have salaries, and they are also paid directly from the inner government, so there is no need for Zhu Youzhen to dig out a copper plate. Even the princess, as well as the concubines who cannot be determined in the future, have their own fortunes. Why is this product still so greedy, not to grab this little money from us rootless people?

How did he know that Comrade Zhu Youzhen was used to living a hard life. When I was a child, my family was poor, my parents were working-class, and my monthly salary couldn't even add up to a hundred yuan.

finally got admitted to the university, and the tens of thousands of tuition fees that year basically dried up the family's savings. Originally, the cost of living every month was not much, but this product was not competitive, and I was addicted to online games, not to mention the impact on learning, and it directly led to a plummeting food level, three meals of instant noodles a day is a common thing, and I have to hesitate for a long time to add an egg.

Such a bitter and bitter poor sour, suddenly saw the silver of the white flowers, and the first reaction could only be one: hug it!

Guan Ning was extremely reluctant in his heart, although he was no longer in Shangshan Prison, his connections were still there, and his influence was still there. Of course, the benefits are also greatly. If Zhu Youzhen is allowed to get his wish, it is a trivial matter to divide a little bit of silver, and it will destroy the effective operation mode of Shangshan Supervisor, and the nature of this behavior is extremely bad.

What's more serious is that he just came to Wenhua Hall from Shangshan, and Zhu Youzhen came to do this, and the other eunuchs must have to put the accounts on his Guan Ning, thinking that he was not greedy enough and broke the rules. In this palace of intrigue and deceit, if you want to survive, it is a very important law to be convenient for yourself. If you really do this, I'm afraid that you will offend the other eunuchs, and the reputation accumulated over the years will be ruined?

But to hard-top Zhu Youzhen, Guan Ning didn't dare a little. Don't look at the fact that he pressed Zhu Youzhen with Wei Zhongxian just now, it seems that it still has some effect, but Guan Ning knows very well in his heart that Zhu Youzhen is King Ning after all, and he is the younger brother of Banzai today! Why is Godfather Wei Zhongxian so powerful? It's not a long live lord favor! If you do everything against King Ning, you will make him anxious, and you will sue him in front of Banzai, maybe the godfather will have nothing to do, but he will be in the catastrophe, and he has no friendship with the emperor.

And he was just swept up by his godfather yesterday, and it is obvious that the godfather has more important urgent matters to deal with at the moment, and his energy is not focused on King Ning for the time being. Originally, his task was only to keep an eye on Zhu Youzhen and report something in time, and he couldn't afford to open himself up to Zhu Youzhen.

After thinking about it, Guan Ning could only choose to compromise. He snorted and said, "Back to the prince, in this matter, the slave alone can't be the master." The prince can send Zhang Dahui, the chief eunuch of the Shangshan Prison, to him, if he obeys the prince's will, things will naturally be easier. ”

Guan Ning was not stupid, and threw this hot potato to Zhang Dahui. However, he estimated that without Wei Zhongxian's support, Zhang Dahui's two times were not as good as himself, and he would definitely not be able to resist Zhu Youzhen, so he had to follow it. Although the dietary rules of King Ning and the princess were not as good as those of the emperor, they also cost a few hundred taels of silver a day, and nearly 100,000 taels a year.

In fact, if you calculate the account, as King Ning said, if you meet in half, the loss of Shang Shan Jian is not big, and you don't have to cook for him, so you don't have to worry a lot about it. It's not very difficult to make a fake account, in fact, the Shangshan supervisor is making fake accounts every day. If done well, it is not impossible to make up for all these losses.

"Let's let him come by temperament, our family's life may be a little better!" Guan Ning could only comfort himself like this.

Zhu Youzhen saw that Guan Ning was relieved, and said with a smile on his face: "It's easy to say, this matter is a request from this king, and you can't hold a shelf." In a while, you will take this king to Shangshan Jian for a trip and visit this Chief Manager Zhang. When the matter is done, the benefits of the father-in-law are naturally indispensable. ”

Hearing that there were still benefits, Guan Ning was flattered and sneered: "Doing things for the prince, that's the duty of a slave..."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Zhu Youzhen interrupted him with a smile: "One more thing, do we have an account book in Wenhua Palace?" This king takes stock. Yesterday the king received many rewards, but where are those rewards? This king wants to see it now! ”

Guan Ning's smile immediately froze on his face.
