When Xie Yaoguang was writing these things, Ye Linchen saw it clearly on the side. In some places, Xie Yaoguang would occasionally use a font that he was very familiar with, and then change back to the handwriting he had seen before.

Pine wind plum bones, the posture of the deceased.

"Xu Duzhi, are you done?" Ye Linchen asked softly.

"Wechen finished speaking, Your Highness, do you think there is something wrong?" Hearing this, Xu Yiai looked at Ye Linchen and shook his body, "If you have any problems, just ask them, and Wechen will find a way to improve them." ”

Hearing this, Ye Linchen turned his head to look at Xie Yaoguang on the side, "There is nothing wrong with this king." It's just that she has memorized a lot of things, you can take a look. ”

Xie Yaoguang, who was named after him, saw Xu Yiai looking at him expectantly, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly and handed over the paper in his hand.

Seeing this, Xu Yiai hurriedly took the things handed over by Xie Yaoguang and read them carefully. He had heard Xie Yaoguang's talent praised many times, and he couldn't help but admire what Xie Yaoguang wrote at this time.

Seeing that the thing he had just recorded was passed on to everyone, Xie Yaoguang raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Actually, Lord Xu has already thought about it very well. It's just that the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and there are some small places that he may not have thought of, so I wrote down what I thought of for a reference. ”

"Miss Xie, you think better than me." Xu Yiai scratched her head and said a little shyly, "I think that with Miss Xie, your talent and ability are more than enough to serve as the Zhongshu Ling." ”

The words fell to the ears, Xie Yaoguang did not speak.

On the contrary, Ye Linchen swept his eyes, Xu Yiai snorted lightly, and seemed to be very dissatisfied with this idea. Let Miao Miao take over the Zhongshu Ling, and Xu Yiai can think of it, although he also thinks that it is indeed not a problem to serve as Zhongshu Ling with Miao Miao's ability, but he still hopes to see Miao, and he wants to listen to Miao's call to his husband.

Thinking of this, Ye Linchen's gaze swept over Xie Yaoguang, and then fell on Xu Yiai's face, "You will take a closer look later, and if there is anything wrong, you will also deal with it." ”

"Yes."

"Something seems wrong here." The one who spoke was a middle-aged man in Ge Yi, who was white and chubby, and had two eight-character beards.

"Master Li, if you think something is wrong, you can say it." Xie Yaoguang raised his eyes to look at the Ge Yi man and said in a soft tone, "I know that you are more familiar with these things than I am when dealing with these things all year round. ”

The man in Ge Yi, who was called Master Li, was surprised, "Do you actually recognize me?"

"He is known as Li Mingyuan, the head of the household department of the living abacus. Although I haven't met you, I've heard His Royal Highness King Jin mention it several times. Xie Yaoguang pursed his lips and smiled lightly.

In fact, Ye Linchen didn't mention Li Mingyuan to her, but before and after she entered Beijing, she collected and sorted out the list of officials of the DPRK and China, although she didn't remember them all, but most people had an impression.

For example, when Li Mingyuan was in the past, when Zhang Qin was there, because he had always acted uprightly, he naturally could not be reused, but Zhang Qin was afraid of him, so he kept him in the household department for convenient monitoring. It was easy to wait for Zhang Qin to fall, and Li Mingyuan, who had been suppressed for a long time, handed over all the evidence he had collected over the years to Xia Fu to deal with.

I don't know when he joined Ye Linchen's command, there is such a loyal and capable courtier at the bottom, which is really worry-free.

"Prizes. I'm just following my heart and doing things for the court. Miss Xie, the questions you raised are all very good, but there is one point: there is a drought this year, and many places have lost money. Li Mingyuan's voice seemed to be thinking about something for a long time before he said: "I think we should make a proposal to Your Majesty to reduce this year's taxes to appease the people." Otherwise, it will inevitably provoke a popular uprising. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xie Yaoguang raised his eyes to look at Li Mingyuan in front of him, and slightly hooked his lips, "Do you mean to reduce taxes this year?" It's not impossible, the Xue family should have seized a lot of silver taels, which should be enough to make up for the deficit in the treasury. It's just that His Majesty intends to preside over the repair of the palace this year, which is a lot of expenditure, and I heard that His Majesty is repairing auspicious soil for himself? That's also a big expense. ”

"My father is indeed cultivating auspicious soil for himself. This matter was in charge of Yuan Langqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and his budget was barely able to bear it. Ye Linchen, who took over the conversation, said softly.

"So we've got to do something...... Your Highness, can't you make it possible for all the ministers to tighten their belts and do things? I'm afraid that the court won't be able to send it out at that time......"

When he said this, the corners of Xie Yao's lips were slightly hooked, and his voice was gentle. It really meant something else when it fell into everyone's ears, Xie Yaoguang's words were clearly telling them that the two pieces of silver confiscated by the Xue family were only enough to make up for the treasury, and if His Majesty used it like this, there was still a deficit, and if he wanted to make up for the shortfall, he had to use silver to make up for it.

So how much silver is missing in this treasury? How much money did the Xue family have to be greedy to form the inexhaustible hole that is now formed. However, Xie Yaoguang has a good saying, if the deficit in the treasury is not filled, the sword in His Majesty's hand will fall on them in the future. Draw blood from them to fill the deficit in the treasury.

The people rebelled and plundered the merchants. But in the end, they are also people, and they have spendthrift and plundered the people. When the people have no way to live, it is naturally easy to rebel, so the court can only use other people, such as them.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Xie Yaoguang with gentle eyebrows in front of them worriedly, and they all frowned, as if they were thinking about how to deal with the serious deficit in the treasury.

"Are you going to take the Xu family under the knife?" Ye Linchen, who was holding back his smile, looked at Xie Yaoguang gently.

Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang slightly hooked his lips, "It seems that Your Highness, you have already guessed my thoughts." The Xu family seems to have been low-key over the years, but in fact, they are in Taoguang. It's best to take them down. But before we do that....."

"Do you want to force Your Majesty to dispose of King Shou?" After thinking about it for a while, Pei Huai looked at Xie Yaoguang and said softly.

"Yes, yes. If Your Majesty does not dispose of King Shou one day, the Xu family will still have a chance to make a comeback. Xie Yaoguang slowly raised his lips with a sneer in his eyes, "I now want to know what His Majesty's attitude is, after all, the balance he has painstakingly maintained for so many years is already in jeopardy. He's got to do something, right? ”

"I think Your Majesty is looking at your attitude." Xia Fu, who had been listening for a long time, suddenly interjected.

The words fell to his ears, and Xie Yaoguang raised his eyebrows. What Xia Fu said is not impossible, after all, King Shou can be regarded as the heir he has painstakingly cultivated for a long time, although it makes him feel very disappointed now, but it may not be easy to make Emperor Li give up easily. Even if Ye Linchen is far better than King Shou today, it is still worse than King Shou's intimacy with Emperor Li.

Thinking of this, a hint of ridicule slipped through Xie Yaoguang's eyes. She always felt that King Shou's heart would definitely do something that surprised her.
