The news that Concubine Xiao Guifei was imprisoned in Ganquan Palace spread throughout the harem before the afternoon, there were those who were worried, there were those who gloated, and Ye Qiu was also found by the Empress Dowager Xiao for the first time.

"Queen Mother, why are you here?" Ye Qiu ignored Empress Dowager Xiao's ugly face and saluted respectfully.

"How did I get here? Isn't it because of you? Empress Dowager Xiao was furious, "Rou'er, she is not only your concubine but also your cousin, but also my niece, what big mistake did she make to treat her like this?" Where does this put the queen mother's face? ”

"If she's not your niece, according to her sins, it's enough to break into the cold palace." Ye Qiu said coldly.

"What could she do wrong?" Seeing Ye Qiu's cold face, Empress Dowager Xiao also became a little weaker.

Ye Qiu looked straight at Empress Dowager Xiao and said word by word: "As a harem concubine, she openly accused me of my decision-making, unreasonably demanded the execution of ministers, and changed the official position of courtiers, shouldn't she enter the cold palace?" I just took a step back when I saw your mother's face. ”

"She's also worried about her father, not intentionally." Empress Dowager Xiao defended in a low voice, and she didn't know when she was not so strong in front of her son.

Ye Qiu sneered: "Uncle is doing well now, I don't know what she's worried about." ”

"This is not his official position......" Empress Dowager Xiao suddenly realized, and she couldn't say anything about the words behind.

In the final analysis, Xiao Fu's resignation this time, from the governor of Jiangxi to the cabinet scholar, from the second-rank magistrate to the second-grade Beijing official, how can it be said that they are all promoted, so what reason does Xiao Rou have to make trouble? Or is it that the Xiao family is not satisfied with his decision, is this resisting the decree?

Empress Dowager Xiao was instantly frightened into a cold sweat, she didn't know what Xiao Rou said today, but thinking of Xiao Rou's temper, it is estimated that what Qiu'er said is not far from ten, and it may even be even more outrageous, although the Xiao family is high and powerful, but there are also many people who hate the Xiao family, in the past, they were unscrupulous with the emperor's favor, but one day the emperor will not favor them? Just because of her, the queen mother who is not allowed to interfere in politics in the harem?

And today, it seems that the concubine and the Xiao family have completely angered the bottom line of the emperor, and it is difficult to say how it will be in the future, not to mention, the harem can't be hidden at all, and from tomorrow, those imperial historians should impeach the Xiao family one after another.

Empress Dowager Xiao, who has always been confused, finally got smart today, but the more anxious she was, the more cranky she thought in her head, Ye Qiu looked at her, and finally sighed: "Queen Mother, don't worry about these things, Huaizhang still needs you to take care of it!" ”

Although the Queen Mother protected the Xiao family everywhere, after the fall of the capital, she never left his son to transfer with the Xiao family, she was just confused, and it was easy to be used by the Xiao family, and Ye Qiu never couldn't bear to hurt her.

Yes, I don't know how her good grandson is now, but she must not be affected by her mother.

finally sent the queen mother away, here Xiao Boran took Xiao Fu into the palace to ask for sin, now the official position is a foregone conclusion, Xiao Guifei lives in Ganquan Palace again, he doesn't want to see the scheming father and son at this time, and he can't see it directly.

Speaking of which, now half of the sky in the court is Xiao Lao's thief, and he can imprison Xiao Guifei because of her words and deeds, in the final analysis, his power is still limited, and he has to take his time to completely collapse the power of the Xiao family.

However, the most important thing now is the war at the border pass, in the previous life, he listened to the persuasion of Xiao Lao's thief and recalled the Li family army to the capital, which led to the fall of the border pass and the Huns' long drive, in this life, although the Li family army is still guarding the border pass, but the Huns' plot against the Hong Dynasty is not a day or two, and the war will not drag on for too long even if it is not according to the time of the previous life, what he has to do now is to fully support the border pass.

And once the war starts, the most important thing he needs is food, grass, and weapons, and now that the treasury is empty, he has to find a way to get money.

"Xiao Shunzi, Zhaoqing forgot to enter the palace and Zhang Shangshu entered the palace."

"Wow!"

It's too late to make money, and the best thing to do is to get the ministers to pay it back.

From the beginning of Taizong's founding of the country, the courtiers had the habit of borrowing money from the treasury, and now after nine emperors, some families have even borrowed as much as one million taels, and the sum of the money and silver borrowed by each family is even richer than the treasury in its heyday, and it is imperative to collect debts.

And this debt collector can't do it if his status is low, so Ye Qiu thought of King Qing.

I don't know if it's because the ancestors killed too much, the Hong Dynasty has not had many heirs since the founding of the country, and in Ye Qiu's generation, in addition to him, there are only two princesses, he has three princes, and he can be regarded as a prosperous heir, King Qing is his grandfather's own brother, according to the generation, Ye Qiu wants to shout uncle and grandfather.

Although King Qing is leading the idle position, but he has a high rank and status, and he is such a prince in Beijing, he has always been detached, and it is no longer suitable for him to collect debts.

After listening to Ye Qiu's request, King Qing was stunned, he couldn't figure out why his good nephew had arranged such an errand for him to offend people! Not to mention, there is really no better candidate for this errand besides him.

He was not happy, but looking at his nephew's pitiful face, thinking that he finally wanted to do something practical, who else could support him as an uncle and grandfather?

That's it, that's it, the nephew didn't say that he would recover all the debts, and if he could recover half of them, he would be considered to have fulfilled his holy order.

Compared with the bitter gourd face of King Qing, Zhang Shangshu is happy, the treasury is empty, and he is not easy to do, especially when he robbed Xiao Fu's position, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng is ready to find fault with him! This one needs money for the war today, and the one for the disaster tomorrow, where will he get the money? Now that he's fine, he doesn't have to worry about running out of money.

Not only that, but the next day Ye Qiu arranged a good helper for King Qing, this person is Xiao Qi, now that Xiao Fu is frustrated, Xiao Qi is running up with all his strength, with him, for outsiders, it is equivalent to Xiao Lao Thief supporting him, and he, in order to fight for credit, will definitely spare no effort, maybe he is urging his family to be the first to repay his debts!

Ye Qiu guessed right, but Xiao Qi was really ready to be the first to take his own knife, others said he was stupid, but he also had his own careful thoughts, his own debts should be repaid with public accounts, the eldest brother is the eldest son, and the entire Xiao family will be his in the future, what does it have to do with him? In this case, it is better to use the big brother's money to achieve his own future.

Looking at Xiao Boran's gloomy face, Xiao Qi said confidently: "Father, don't be stubborn, Your Majesty has sent King Qing to collect debts, this debt must not be relied on, you might as well take it out as soon as possible, not only will there be light in front of your son, maybe it can offset Your Majesty's bad impression of our family during this time!" ”
