Yuan Qing Ling pondered the wording, "Back to my father's words, my daughter-in-law knows a little bit about it." ”

Emperor Ming Yuan's face could not be seen to be happy or angry. The eyes were very indifferent, "If it is verified." She can't keep her head. ”

Yuan Qingling didn't know how to answer, but just hummed in a sneer.

Emperor Ming Yuan looked at her. "Do you think I should do a thorough investigation and remove your mother-in-law's head?"

Yuan Qing Ling quickly raised his head and glanced at Emperor Ming Yuan, feeling very strange in his heart. What's going on. You shouldn't have asked her, right? Wouldn't that be the same as meddling in politics?

She thought for a while and said, "My daughter-in-law doesn't know, my daughter-in-law doesn't dare to ask about the affairs of the court." ”

Emperor Ming Yuan said lightly: "I ask your opinion now, and you say it." ”

Isn't that embarrassing her? She said it wasn't appropriate to check or not. If she said check. I really checked it, and I picked off Concubine Xian's head. Even if the fifth child didn't say anything on the surface, can he not mind in his heart?

If you don't investigate, but such a person who has brought disaster to the country and the people will also be allowed to cover up, which is unreasonable.

For self-preservation. She could only say, "Father." The daughter-in-law really didn't know, and she didn't dare to ask. ”

Emperor Ming Yuan smiled coldly. "It is said that the crown princess is upright and outspoken. I now seem to be a self-interested person who is good at self-preservation. ”

Yuan Qingling didn't know why the emperor wanted to put her in a dilemma, whether she was involved in this matter or not, and what impact did it have on the overall situation?

She didn't make a sound, thinking about what the emperor wanted to do.

Emperor Ming Yuan said: "If this thing is done, it will have a great impact on the fifth child, there is a mother concubine with a stain, he will also be criticized, and he is more likely to be attacked by people in the future, but what you are worried about is not a matter of reputation, Concubine Xian is always the mother of the fifth child, if this matter is done seriously, Concubine Xian's head will be moved." Therefore, I think that we can't do it now, let's save it first, and there are a lot of evils that she has stored horizontally and vertically. ”

Yuan Qingling continued to hum and did not express her opinion, just waiting for Emperor Ming Yuan to say that he expressed his attitude, in fact, she vaguely guessed something, and even felt that her guess was more reliable

Sure enough, then Emperor Ming Yuan said: "However, not doing her does not mean that she will not be investigated, since this matter has been known by the first assistant and the household department, it should still be investigated, but it is just not implicated in her, I asked someone to calculate it today, a total of 800,000 taels of silver, if she wants Su Dahe to live, she will have to return all the 800,000 taels of stolen money and pay a fine of 500,000 taels of silver, a total of 1.3 million taels, so that I can open the net, take her out, and then temporarily spare Su Da and a dog's life." ”

As soon as Yuan Qingling heard this, he felt that the emperor was scheming, in the end, it was an old fox, killing Su Tahe, that is, killing the nephew of the queen mother, the queen mother must be in a hurry to make a fuss or something, so he should not kill Su Tahe immediately, but after that, he must settle accounts after the autumn, and the word "temporary" in his words can be seen.

Since they all want to spare his life, why not take the opportunity to make money?

It seems that the emperor is really poor.

Yuan Qingling expressed his position at this time, "The daughter-in-law thinks that what her father said is reasonable, the Su family has a big business, and she should be able to get these silver to buy her life." ”

She had already sensed the emperor's intentions, so she had to block the back door immediately.

She believes that the king of a country at least understands the four words that it is difficult not to be strong.

Obviously, she was wrong, the king of a country understands, but a poor and crazy king of a country will not pay attention to these, Emperor Ming Yuan saw that the hint could not be made, and said directly, "This silver, the Su family paid 500,000 taels, and the remaining 800,000 taels should be paid by the virtuous concubine. ”

When Yuan Qingling heard this, his heart was broken, his eyes widened and he said tremblingly: "Father, I don't know how much these broken silvers are?" ”

"I estimate that I can take out 10,000 handfuls of silver from Concubine Xian's side." When Emperor Ming Yuan spoke, his eyes dodged a little, although he was clearly robbing Yuan Qingling, but it was not good to be so arrogant.

Yuan Qingling had a feeling that he wanted to faint immediately, and he knew that he couldn't eat with the emperor, this meal was too expensive.

"What? The filial piety of the fifth child is not comparable to that bit of broken silver? Emperor Ming Yuan frowned, "Look at your stingy look, this bit of silver can't hurt you, and it can fulfill the filial piety of the fifth child, the crown princess, the grace of childbirth, the grace of parenting, consider it." ”

Yuan Qingling's eyes widened, she was angry, she was stingy? Is a man who even has to pay an IOU for a reward to say this? She has seen what it means to be invincible in the world once people are poor and crazy.

Yuan Qing Ling resisted stubbornly and said in a low voice: "However, most of the daughter-in-law's silver is the growth fund that the emperor gave to the children, and without their consent, the daughter-in-law is not easy to embezzle." ”

Emperor Ming Yuan raised his hand and said majestically: "Don't worry, I have already understood clearly, the emperor rewarded the child with three little wolves, and the gold is all for you, you can rest assured that you can give it, if there is anything, I will bear it for you." ”

Yuan Qingling heard this, she really couldn't cry or laugh, did she want to pay the silver and thank him for her kindness?

Yuan Qing Ling asked weakly, "Father, does the fifth child know about this?" ”

Emperor Ming Yuan sighed: "Naturally, I know, but he said that he couldn't go back and ask you to get the silver, he went to find a way to borrow it himself, it was his mother's concubine, could he not save it?" This kid is a little bit of a shaft, but filial piety is very filial, I think that the prince is not decent to borrow money all over the street, thinking that you are also a reasonable person, so I will pass you into the palace and ask you what you mean. ”

"He's gone to borrow money?" Yuan Qingling was stunned, 800,000 taels he wanted to go out to borrow? Why don't you go back and talk to her? As long as it was what he said, she would give it to him even if she was distressed.

Emperor Ming Yuan was silent, looking at her, as if you were measuring it yourself.

A generation of fox kings knows that when it comes to saying something, they have to give people space to think, so that people can contribute willingly.

Yuan Qingling really lived up to his expectations, although she could see that she was clenching her teeth and dripping blood in her heart, she still said the inspiring words, "Daughter-in-law...... is willing to subsidize the rest, but ask the father to ask the mother how much she can come up with, don't ask the daughter-in-law to post 800,000 taels. ”

Emperor Ming Yuan said loudly: "You just have to rest assured, I want her to sell her gold and silver jewelry, and I will definitely ask her to take more, I can't let you suffer too much, I can't let her be too wronged by you, embarrassed you, don't worry!" ”

Yuan Qingling staggered out of the palace, holding on to the palace wall and walking out slowly, with a layer of haze pressed on his heart, there was not enough money, and now he has been extorted a large sum, how can he be willing? If Concubine Xian is good to her, she is willing to give this silver, and she is partial to life, she can't wait for her to die, and she has to take a large amount of silver to save her.

I'm so unwilling!
