Chapter 4: The Rain Rises
Feng Qing was still a little incomprehensible, obviously his eyes were full of hatred a month ago, and he couldn't wait to cut everyone down Ye Weishao how could change so much. If it weren't for his identity here, if it weren't for the fact that she hadn't figured out this person's temperament, if it weren't for the fact that her father was still guarding the city, she wouldn't have let Ye Weishao do anything wrong.
"Your Majesty, everything you have to say is finished, can you let the courtiers leave?" Luo You is still waiting at home.
"Qingqing is really ruthless, I finally managed to come out during the day." It's a headache to think about the folds that are still pressed on the desk of the imperial study, he has just ascended the throne, and there are many things that he is not familiar with. Those old departments in various states and provinces don't know if they can use it anymore, and he is now short of manpower.
There is another thing that also gives him a headache. He can be said to have made a dead hand, and he dealt with all the concubines and nobles of the previous dynasty, resulting in the absence of an owner in the harem. No matter how vicious his methods were before, there were still people who had crooked thoughts and sent people in.
Feng Qing tried not to look around, even if he had been on the boat for a while, he was still a little scared. Think about it, if someone else offered to take her to the lake, she would have been beaten by that person and couldn't find the north.
"Your Majesty's new emperor must have a lot of things to do when he ascends the throne, so hurry back to the palace." It's better never to go out again.
Ye Weishao was a little lost.
Qingqing is chasing him, too, they have only known each other for a long time in this life. How could Qingqing believe him quickly, "It's true that there are a lot of things, I plan to build a dam in Yingzhou." The Ministry of Industry said that there was no one, and the Ministry of Household said that there was no money. Qingqing, I knew that what I took over was an empty shell, so I wouldn't play with it. β
Dongyong Kingdom was hollowed out by the former emperor before Ye Weishao took over, if you want to say that when the prince forced the palace, maybe the first emperor knew about it, and he would not become a sinner through the ages when he came to take over this empty shell. If he hadn't intercepted it, the prince might have suffered this dumb loss.
The emptiness of the treasury is a high-frequency problem that all dynasties will experience, the first emperor is indeed mediocre, and there are countless beauties in the harem, and I don't know how much it costs to eat and wear those beauties. If you want to say that you are in a good mood, you will hold a banquet poetry or something, after all, it is the emperor who speaks, and the Ministry of Household Rites will do it even if you don't want to. And the money to reward the ministers. The treasury is only in and out, and of course there will be a deficit in this coming and going.
"The new official has taken office with three fires, Your Majesty is only the first month, and your fire has not yet burned." Feng Qing lowered his head and said.
Ye Weishao suddenly recalled his previous life, when he didn't intercept him. The prince succeeded in forcing the palace to recover his subordinates quickly, and he didn't hear that the treasury was empty, most of which was filled by the prince with his own private money. Later, it didn't take long for him and Qingqing to be married, and he was also sent to Yingzhou, and Qingqing came to see him off when he parted that day, and said something similar, "The new official has three fires, and only those who burn the fire will be afraid of you." β
The wind gradually rose, and the sky slowly darkened. The sound of "boom" was a muffled thunderstorm.
"Your Majesty, it's going to rain, let's go back." It doesn't matter if it rains a little, by the way, wash this bloody imperial city, don't spread it out in the future that people in the imperial city don't go out, and the good imperial city has become a "dead city".
Ye Weishao didn't refuse, asked Feng Qing to sit down by himself, and then stood up and rowed.
Xu is really not dreaming, Feng Qing and they just came ashore when it rained. Before Shao said goodbye that night, she trotted all the way back to the General's Mansion, and Luo You was already anxiously holding an umbrella and waiting at the door.
"Miss, why did you go back, the slave is going to go out to look for you."
"I'm not back, what's the hurry?"
Before he could say a few words, someone came and called, "Miss, Madame is waiting for you in the flower hall." β
Feng Qing raised her eyebrows, "Can she move?" β
Luo You pulled Feng Qing with a worried expression, "Not yet, but the second young master came back one step earlier than you, and seeing that it was about to rain, he asked someone to carry the eldest lady into the flower hall." Do you want to go? Maybe the eldest young master is waiting for you, so you can have a seizure. β
"Go, of course. It's raining heavily, so it's not good to let the eldest lady and the third lady freeze. Feng Qing sneered, his eyes full of sarcasm. What kind of majesty can a concubine's son play, she wants to see what Feng Bofeng's soft persimmon is going to do.
As the people arrived at the flower hall, Feng Bofeng was really waiting there, "Feng Qing, what do you want to do?" Dare to treat your mother like this, isn't it enough to suffer before? β
Feng Qing smiled, a little unsure of what Feng Bofeng said about hardship. Feng Bofeng is a year younger than her, if he thinks that he will deduct her use and prevent her from going out and suffering at home, it is really naΓ―ve. Her life in the barracks is not as good as the imperial city, and the food is naturally not good, she survived it at that time, and now these are nothing.
"You are very majestic, Miss Ben heard that you just came back, where did you go in the morning?" Feng Bofeng originally wanted Feng Qing to unlock the acupoint, but she didn't mention it in half a sentence, but began to ask him where he had gone in the morning.
"It's just that I went out for a drink with a few friends, Feng Qing, are you too lenient? Hurry up and give my mother a solution. He knew that Feng Qing had been different since he came back a year ago, and he would still cultivate the vitality of that crooked and evil way. Although there are not many people in the imperial city who know how to be energetic, there are many people who know about it. Every time his friends saw him, they would tease him that there was a "cannibal" eldest sister in the family.
Feng Qing didn't shy away from it, and walked directly to the main seat and sat down, "A few friends are eating and drinking together?" Now the restaurants outside have never opened, Feng Bofeng, you tell me that you went out to eat? It's autumn soon, and you can't read even if you can't lift a knife. "Although civil officials and military generals have always been at odds, if Feng Bofeng really has that ability, even if he is a civil official, his father will support it.
Feng Bofeng frowned, his sister and mother were still fixed, why did Feng Qing start talking about him.
"Feng Qing, give my mother a solution."
Feng Qing frowned, and his eyes sank. She was too lazy to deal with them before, but now she sees what can happen to her son who has been taught by an uneducated maid. "Kneel, when the housewife is not there, the eldest sister is like a mother. Why are you so ignorant of etiquette and know the name of the eldest sister. β
Feng Bofeng was stunned and was frightened by Feng Qing. He knew that Feng Qing came out of the barracks, but he didn't do much before, why did he have a seizure all of a sudden today?
If Liu on the side hadn't been able to move or speak, he would have scolded a long time ago. How can the son she raised with great difficulty say that he kneels and kneels?
Of course, Feng Qing noticed someone's vicious gaze, she didn't see it, and she wasn't frightened. To say that a glance was shaken, it would be in vain that she spent a few years in the barracks.
"Get on your knees." Feng Qing shouted again.
Feng Bofeng glanced at Liu, how could he kneel down to Feng Qing.
"Feng Qing, you don't have to make an inch."
