Niu Hengtong heard that this was wrong, and he chuckled in his heart.

He hurriedly kowtowed: "Niangniang is angry, the money spent on this meal is all saved by the ministers from the money, and they have never been greedy for the people." ”

"Really?" Yun Dai casually picked up Xiao Ziliang's wine glass, put it under her nose and smelled it, "Hantan incense, imperial wine, the stock is extremely scarce." Now the market price is at least 800 taels of silver per pot. I would like to ask a few adults, how much do you earn in a year? ”

Niu Hengtong lay on the ground and didn't dare to speak.

Yun Dai said: "If this palace is not mistaken, the political envoy is a second-grade official, and the monthly salary is forty-eight stones. Now the price of this rice, converted into silver, is only about 20 taels. The annual salary of the year is less than three hundred taels. ”

Every time she said a word, the officials' faces turned white.

This queen mother, who lives in the harem, is very clear about the situation of the court officials.

What frightened them even more was that the queen mother hadn't finished speaking.

"Niu Hengtong, at your age, you should have a wife, concubines, children and grandchildren, right? In addition to the expenses of supporting the family, how much money do you have left? Yun Dai said coldly, "Of course, I know that it is impossible for a feudal official like you to live on this little bit alone. The annual fire consumption, ice respect, charcoal respect, and the imperial court also turn a blind eye as a subsidy for you. The court understands your difficulties, but you should also think about the court and the people. ”

Niu Hengtong kowtowed: "Niangniang is angry, although the ministers are incompetent, they also do their best to serve the court and the people!" ”

Yun Dai slapped the table: "The slogan is loud and loud, these three hundred taels of silver dishes, eight hundred taels of silver wine, you drink a lot of it!" ”

Several officials hurriedly threw their heads on the ground.

Xiao Ziliang silently put down the chicken leg in his hand.

The girl who sang the song was also pale with fright, and she didn't know what to do.

Wei Jintai went over, gave her a little silver, and told her to leave.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and Bao Xing walked in quickly, and was relieved to see Yun Dai sitting unharmed.

In the cold weather, he ran profusely and sweated.

Yun Dai glanced at him.

He nodded at Yun Dai, then stood behind her with the ledger in his arms.

Niu Hengtong knelt on the ground and was very puzzled.

Could it be that the queen was angry just because they ate a table of 1,000 taels of silver?

That's not it, is it......

Anyway, they are also second-class members, and they invite the emperor of Northern Qi to eat and drink, and it is nothing to eat better.

They were only worried, there was something else.

Yun Dai's gaze swept over them and spoke: "Who is Ji Dafu?" ”

Ji Dafu's heart sank, and he hurriedly said: "The villain is Ji Dafu." ”

Yun Dai looked at him, a man of about forty, short and fat triangular eyes, oily head, and a fat head at a glance.

"Ji Dafu, are you responsible for taking care of the largest granary in the south of the city?"

"Yes, the villain is the granary and the bookkeeper."

"Accounts?" Yun Dai smiled, "This palace is really wondering, our Great Zhou Kingdom, even a single account room, dare to ignore the general's orders?" ”

Ji Dafu hurriedly kowtowed in fright: "The villain doesn't dare!" ”

"Don't dare?"

Yun Dai threw the slip in her hand to him, "Tonight, this palace went to your granary to get charcoal, and waited outside for an hour, and I didn't even see the shadow of a piece of charcoal." People said that Lord Qin's warrant doesn't work, you have to nod from Master Ji! ”
