Chapter 1160: The Candle That Can't Be Lighted

"As long as the other party's price is fair, let's solve the current problem first."

Zhu Shangwu finally made up his mind, and when he saw this, Eunuch Xue didn't say anything more, after all, the emperor had made a decision, what else did he have to say as a eunuch.

When the time comes, the matter of repaying the money will give His Majesty a headache, and it has nothing to do with himself.

may be because a big problem has been solved, so Zhu Shangwu's mood has become very good.

Compared to the bitter appearance before, there is a lot more smile on his face now.

"Sorry, we had something going on here, so ......"

Zhu Shangwu looked at Zhao Hongyu with an apologetic look and accused him.

Zhao Hongyu smiled indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter, it's not a trivial matter, it's understandable that you can discuss it with someone." So, has Your Majesty made a decision now? ”

Zhu Shangwu nodded: "Five million taels of silver, calculated at three points of interest, will you pay it back next year?" ”

It may be that he is too young, or it may be because Zhu Shangwu himself is a little unlearned, so you can't feel the so-called majesty and prestige from his body at all.

On the contrary, Zhao Hongyu felt that the little fat man sitting on the dragon chair on his side was like a little brother next door.

"If there is no problem here, then there is no problem here. We can write clearly in black and white, and no one will worry about it then, right? ”

For Zhao Hongyu's proposal, it is exactly what Zhu Shangwu meant.

Yes, no matter what, it's better to write it clearly in black and white.

"Someone, the will!"

Subsequently, Zhu Shangwu summoned the eunuch Bingbi and took out a blank scroll.

The eunuch Bingbi quickly wrote this royal loan note, and after writing it, he showed it to Zhu Shangwu and Zhao Hongyu respectively.

Zhao Hongyu didn't find any problems after reading it, so he put away the royal IOU.

"Look at the ...... of this silver." Zhao Hongyu put away the IOU, but the money has not been given yet. So Zhu Shangwu asked a little embarrassed, his face was flushed, obviously it was the first time for him to ask for silver like this, and he was not very used to it.

Zhao Hongyu turned around when he heard this, and he looked at Zhu Shangwu, who was very embarrassed with a red face.

"Oh, the silver."

Zhao Hongyu immediately came to his senses.

It's not like that, I've taken other people's IOUs, but I haven't given anyone money yet. This is a very unruly thing, mainly because Zhu Shangwu doesn't understand this. If it were ordinary people outside, they wouldn't be so careless.

You must know that as long as the IOU is in the hands of others, even if you don't get the silver, you can't say it clearly.

Zhao Hongyu gestured to Mr. Wang, who was sitting not far from him, and then Mr. Wang's body trembled slightly, stood up, and reached into his arms and took out a stack of silver tickets.

Just as he reached into his arms, Hattori Chizuru's body visibly shook.

Because the little girl sensed at that moment that there were several qi machines nearby that locked on to Master Wang, as well as her own people.

Think about it too. How could Zhu Shangwu not have guards by his side, so he recklessly met them.

Obviously, this is unlikely.

Zhu Shangwu, as the master of the Ming Dynasty, once there is an accident. This is not a good thing for the Ming Dynasty. Especially in the current crisis, there is no such situation.

It's just that those guards are hiding in the shadows.

Ordinary people don't see it.

But Hattori Chizuru was able to detect it. After all, the little girl is not an ordinary person.

In fact, since entering the palace, the little girl has already noticed the existence of such a person.

Masters usually have such an intuition for masters.

Chizuru Hattori, one of the Ten Iga people. How could it not be noticed.

If she didn't have some skills, she wouldn't have been able to live so long under the pursuit of the Ishida shogunate.

However, the other party obviously did not have any malicious intent, and just locked this side with a gas machine.

Therefore, Hattori Chizuru's reaction was not very big.

Besides, she knew that her lord had no ill will towards the Ming Emperor.

So, there shouldn't be any misunderstanding.

Fifty silver tickets, each silver ticket is 100,000 taels, and it is also the most credible Shanxi ticket number in the Ming Dynasty, and the ticket can be exchanged immediately as soon as it arrives.

Eunuch Xue hurriedly walked over, held the silver ticket in the hand of Master Wang, and then returned to Zhu Shangwu's side.

"It's that simple, huh?"

Zhu Shangwu originally thought that five million taels of silver would have to cause trouble.

But he never thought that it was just a few pieces of paper.

But this can't blame Zhu Shangwu for not understanding, after all, he rarely touches this kind of thing, when did he ever worry about silver.

"Five million taels of silver, just a few pieces of paper?"

Zhu Shangwu's face was obviously full of doubt.

Eunuch Xue bowed to Zhu Shangwu's side and responded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this is the silver ticket number of the Shanxi ticket number in the capital, as long as you take these silver tickets, then you can withdraw five million taels of silver." The old slave has seen it, and these silver tickets are definitely not fake. ”

Nonsense!

If it is a fake silver ticket, can Zhao Hongyu take it out.

And if he comes out with a fake silver ticket, it won't do him any good.

"That's it?"

Zhu Shangwu looked at Eunuch Xue and said.

Eunuch Xue nodded: "That's it, Your Majesty, now we have to let people hurry up and pick up the silver." ”

Zhu Shangwu still had an incredible look on his face.

Such a few pieces of paper can actually get five million taels of silver, which is something he has never heard of before, and it really shocks him now.

However, when Eunuch Xue reminded him, Zhu Shangwu came back to his senses. Hurriedly nodded and said, "Quick!" Fast! Immediately he sent someone to fetch the money, and when he got it, he sent it to the household. ”

"Your Majesty, don't you leave a little bit of silver? Do you have to send it to the household? ”

After Eunuch Xue heard this, he asked a little unspeakable.

Yes, five million taels of silver is not a decimal number. And what is the situation on the side of the household, Eunuch Xue knows too well.

Moreover, if the ministers of the court knew about this, they would want to come with the five million taels of silver...... How much of it will be used on the blade in the end is unknown.

Eunuch Xue is also thinking about his own majesty, after all, the Jurchen army outside the city is besieged at the moment, and the military situation in Liaodong is urgent, but they are all waiting for silver.

At such a juncture, if you are messed with by those ministers, it will be a bad thing.

It was said. It's all like this, can those courtiers still do this?

Don't say it, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, those court officials were really able to do such a thing.

For them, everything is fake, only silver is real.

And the silver belongs to the imperial court, and they can't take it for nothing, and they can still use all kinds of excuses, right?

"Of course, they will all be sent to the household department, otherwise where else can they be sent?"

Zhu Shangwu obviously didn't understand the Tao here.

"Your Highness. Of the five million taels of silver, it is best that you keep a little bit and seal it in the inner treasury. It's also good to take it out for emergency when you need it, and you don't have to give it to the household. ”

Speaking of which, Eunuch Xue can be regarded as a loyal person.

Replace it with another eunuch. I won't care about such a thing, anyway, it's up to the emperor to decide.

Although the conversation between Eunuch Xue and Zhu Shangwu was very low, Zhao Hongyu still heard it.

It was precisely because of Eunuch Xue's words that Zhao Hongyu glanced at him.

I can't see it. This eunuch surnamed Xue is still a relatively loyal person.

Zhao Hongyu did not have that kind of colored vision for the eunuchs of this period.

for he knows the word. History is not always true.

The history written by the literati is not unwilling, and it is not unwilling to write the eunuchs badly.

Who let them master the pen?

Of course, in the group of eunuchs, there are not no scum and extremely vicious existences.

However, you can't overturn a boatload of people with a single stroke.

"Don't be verbose, I've already decided on this matter, so I'll send it to the household department."

Although Eunuch Xue wanted Zhu Shangwu to leave some silver and seal it in the inner treasury, which could be used for emergency purposes at that time.

Otherwise, the five million taels of silver would have gone into the household, but there would be no hair left.

However, there are some things that Eunuch Xue can't say too bluntly, after all, he also has to choose to protect himself.

Once this matter is really revealed, then he, Eunuch Xue, will be in a catastrophe.

Moving the interests of those civil officials is even greater than the sin of killing the head.

Seeing a lot of the faces of those officials and their methods, of course Eunuch Xue couldn't understand what Zhu Shangwu said so clearly, so he could only mention it slightly.

If Zhu Shangwu wakes up, everything will be fine, if he is still confused...... Of course, Eunuch Xue won't say anything more.

As if it was now, Zhu Shangwu's expression was very firm, and Eunuch Xue stopped at the point.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the old slave will arrange for someone to carry the silver."

replied on his lips, but Eunuch Xue sighed in his heart, he was really helpless about Zhu Shangwu's candle that could not be lit.

Alas!

I don't know how much of the five million taels of silver will fatten those corrupt officials.

Now I just hope that they don't get too greedy in the current situation.

Eunuch Xue took the order and left, while Zhu Shangwu relaxed.

After all, it was a big deal that solved his mind.

When the mood improves, the conversation box will open.

Speaking of which, Zhu Shangwu is not very old, and he is only two or three years older than Zhao Hongyu, who looks young, that is, a young man in his early twenties.

Usually in the palace, Zhu Shangwu is surrounded by elderly eunuchs, otherwise he will come into contact with old courtiers.

So after seeing Zhao Hongyu, who was about the same age as himself, Zhu Shangwu could be regarded as finding a talking partner.

"Do you know the way, in fact, my biggest dream is to be a painter who can create a new generation of painting skills. It's a pity that I always have to be bothered by some mundane things, which really makes me very helpless. “

As soon as Zhu Shangwu spoke, he turned the topic to his hobby...... (To be continued......)
