Chapter 272: Getting Rich
The next morning, Sima Yu said about donating money in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.
Not to mention the Great Wei, even in the past thousand years of Great Xia, there has been no personal official to help the people.
In the case of natural and man-made disasters, where do we need officials to contribute money from their own treasury for disaster relief?
As soon as Sima Yu's words fell, the officials began to discuss.
"How can you make us pay!"
"That's right! Wu Guo deserves to be guilty of rebellion, so why do you have to donate money to them. ”
"The treasury has special funds. Why do we have to pay for it......"
"The wine fairy has set up a donation box under Wangxian Tower, and we have already donated it."
"Isn't there still 200,000 taels of gold from Da Sima? Wu Guo is going to get rich......."
......
Seeing that the court hall was in chaos and turned into a vegetable market, Sima Yu yawned and closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Huangfu Zhuo is dead, and he, the emperor, will not be very effective when he speaks.
Sima Yu just wanted to take a nap with his eyes closed, when the commotion in his ears disappeared, and the entire court seemed to be quiet for a moment. Sima Yu hurriedly opened his eyes.
I saw Long Wei, who was wearing a big Sima dress at the entrance of the main hall, striding into the main hall surrounded by his four sons.
Since the Chengtian Temple was taken away from the talisman and imprisoned, Long Wei has been saying that he is sick and has not gone to court.
Now, suddenly approaching, everyone was stunned for a while.
When Sima Zheng was alive, Long Wei was the head of the ministers, and where he was, everyone was also the head of the horse. Da Sima was robbed of military power and was imprisoned again, but his sister is the queen mother, and his daughter will soon be the queen, and his position is unshakable.
Sima Yu also opened his eyes.
This Long Wei didn't want to kill the king in public.
When he was in the Chengtian Palace, he had already attacked him once, and now without the protection of Huangfu Zhuo, it was easier for him to kill him.
In Sima Yu's fright, Da Sima steadily came to the middle of the hall and bowed his hand to Sima Yu: "Your Majesty forgives me, the minister is late!" The minister heard that His Majesty was dedicated to the people, and donated 200,000 taels of gold for the suffering people of Wu State, and His Majesty also donated 200,000 taels. The minister came to cheer for His Majesty! ”
After Long Wei finished speaking, he turned to the hundred officials and said: "Ben Sima Fang just stood outside the hall for a while, Your Majesty's words are so clear, what else do you not understand!" Do you not understand that every one of you is the fat of the people? The matter of Wu Guo was purely because Lu Xuan was sad about the loss of his father and made a foolish thing for a while. He was confused, and it was the ordinary people who suffered. They are the people of Wu, and they are the people of Great Wei. When one side is in trouble, all sides support. Your Majesty has the world in mind and is dedicated to the people, why don't you know to share your worries for the king! ”
"Wencheng Guogong!" Long Wei said to Wen Chengguo, who was standing with his eyes down, "If this Sima is not here, you will be respected above this court." Why do you allow them to be so noisy in front of Your Majesty, do you still have Your Majesty in your eyes? The bones of the first emperor are not cold, do you treat the new monarch like this? ”
In terms of position, Duke Wen Cheng and Duke Wu De are the same, but Duke Wu is the uncle of the country and holds heavy troops, and Duke Wen Cheng feels that he is one level lower than Duke Wu De.
Facing the questioning of Duke Wu De, Duke Wen Chengguo arched his hand: "What Da Sima said is extremely true!" The self of a courtier is to share the worries of the king! ”
Gong Wen Chengguo said and arched his hand to Sima Yu: "The minister will express his position first, and the minister will donate 1,000 taels of gold to pray for Wu Min!" ”
"Ten thousand taels!" Duke Wu said on the side, "Both of us are national dukes, and our own duke has donated 200,000 taels, and Wencheng Guogong can't be too shabby!" ”
Wen Chengguo took a deep breath: "Okay! Ten thousand taels! ”
With Wen Chengguo taking the lead and Da Sima supervising from the side, the officials soon reported their accounts according to their grades.
"Three hundred and sixty-two thousand eight hundred and sixty taels of gold!" Li Jida reported to Jin Ling and Ge Lao with a face full of amazement, "It's just an early dynasty, more than 360,000 taels of gold!" By the way, there are 200,000 taels of gold from the emperor, a total of 560,000 taels, plus the 200,000 taels of Da Sima before, and the people who have raised donations these days, and there are almost 800,000 taels of gold...... 800,000 taels, which is equivalent to a year's tax income of Dawei! It's only been a few days......"
"Da Sima is interesting!" Jin Ling smiled and said, "He took 200,000 taels himself, and he also asked Sima Yu to give 200,000 taels, it's really interesting!" ”
"That's not right!" Ge Lao half-opened his eyes and said, "Your Highness, that Long Wei agreed to His Highness's various requests so readily, and also made such efforts to raise money for His Highness, the old man always felt unreliable. ”
"No matter what he thinks, just get the money." Jin Ling smiled and said, "We will transport this money directly to Wu Kingdom!" Build a base! ”
"Base?" Ge Lao opened his eyes suddenly, "What is the base?" ”
"Build a palace!" Jin Ling joked, "I'm a female emperor myself haha....."
"In that case...... "Elder Ge glanced at Li Jida, "inform Zhuge Gang and let them stand by at any time, and I will send someone to pass on the drawings." While there is still a breath of decay, I must build a palace for His Royal Highness that is even more spectacular than Yingtian. When the time comes, bring all the gold from our coffers! Make sure the new palace is splendid! ”
"Is Ge Lao still serious?" Jin Ling smiled, "I'm joking, I don't want to be infamous for building a lot of construction and laboring people and money, even if I am the emperor, it is also to Yingtian, after all, this imperial city has been inherited for thousands of years." Don't you say where the dragon veins are? ”
"Then build a small palace for His Royal Highness, and the Queen Mother will settle down! Your ancestors and grandchildren are united, and sooner or later they will return to the country. In fact, Lao Yu went to Wu Country when he was young, and even lived there for several years. The climate south of Liangjiang is warm, especially in winter, not as cold as in Yingtian City, and His Highness is good in the past. This northern winter is too cold. His Royal Highness has been growing up in Jinling, and I am afraid that I will not be able to adapt to it for a while. His Royal Highness is still not in good health, so it is better to go to the south to recuperate. Your Highness rest assured, as long as the old man has a breath of air, he will guard the Wangxian Tower. Even if they are old and dead, aren't there still Jida them? You can rest assured in Yingtian's shop, Xia Jiuye and they will help. ”
Jin Ling only felt a warmth in her heart: "Old Ge...... Jin Ling is really lucky, otherwise how could I meet you. What a blessing......"
"That's His Highness winning the initiative. If it weren't for His Highness taking advantage of the conflict between Da Sima and Sima Yu and winning by surprise, how could there be today's situation, the old decay is just the icing on the cake, everything is His Highness's own credit! ”
"yes!" Li Jida sighed on the side, "The first emperor is young and intelligent, the first queen is the first talented woman in Daxia, and His Royal Highness is better than the blue, this is the blessing of Daxia." When His Highness called himself a wine fairy, we all sweated for His Highness, and now it seems that His Highness is the goddess of heaven! ”
"Don't!" Jin Ling stood up, "If you continue to boast, I will really be fluttering." Okay, I'll go out and get down to earth, and go to the silk shop and winery by the way. Ge Lao has a good rest, and Jin Ling will come to see you in the evening. ”
"Send more people!" Ge Lao said to Li Jida, "Guarantee that nothing goes wrong!" ”
