Soon after the border was stabilized, Li Wangcai's body was also brought back to the capital, and Zhao Yichen posthumously buried him as the general of the protector of the country.

Such a title fell on a young general in his twenties, and surprisingly, everyone had no complaints. If it weren't for the sudden change in the Great Zhou Dynasty, how could the border be stabilized so quickly?

It can be said that Li Wangcai's death brought time for a smooth transition of power to Da Zhou.

Li Wangcai only has one relative to Liang, and he has not yet married, so the funeral is also presided over by the Liang family. The people who came to mourn came and went, but Tan Ling stayed aside and looked sluggish.

Tan's mother guarded her almost every inch, and when she promised Tan Ling, seeing that Li Wangcai had not married year after year, Tan Ling looked forward to it more and more year after year.

It's just that no one thought that Emperor Zhou Yuan would die suddenly, and Li Wangcai would also go out to die on the battlefield. He's still so young.

Tan Ling hadn't spoken for three days, Tan Che nodded towards Qi Yuan, reached out and rubbed Tan Ling's head to take people away.

But Tan Ling broke away from Tan Che's hand and rushed towards Qi Yuan, grabbed Qi Yuan's sleeve, looked up at Qi Yuan with hope, and cried: "Brother Qingyuan, you tell me this is not true, right?" You're just acting, aren't you? He's still alive, isn't he? ”

Tan Ling's voice was a little hoarse, she looked at Qi Yuan with the last hope, she didn't even dare to look at the coffin on the side.

Qi Yuan looked at Tan Che, Tan Che also had a sad face, and there was no way to take his sister, they couldn't bear it. Tan Ling is too well-behaved, in the past few years, she has been remembering Tan's mother's words and working hard to learn the skills of the housemother, and she has never bothered her family.

Therefore, Tan Che could only look at Qi Yuan apologetically, and then wanted to take Tan Ling away.

Qi Yuan shook his head and looked at Tan Ling with a serious expression, "Wangcai has already left, and he died on the battlefield." ”

Tan Ling was silent for a long time when he heard this, then lowered his head and let go of the hand holding Qi Yuan.

"This is what he desires, and he has no regrets in this life." Qi Yuan said again, and Tan Ling cried even more fiercely.

Casting her eyes on the coffin in front of her, she knew that something was impossible, but she didn't think he would die.

"Ling'er, let's go home." Mother Tan hugged Tan Ling and said softly.

Tan Ling didn't speak, but just took the incense handed over by Qi Yuan, trembling and lit the incense seriously. watched the incense rise for a long time before nodding and following Tan's mother home.

There is no stain on his life, she can't destroy it, she has already said goodbye.

Qi Yuan looked at Tan Ling, who was leaving, and retracted his gaze, "888, do you regret missing your daughter-in-law?" ”

888 almost choked to death by these words, "Big, you're talking nonsense, I'm not, I don't!" ”

Qi Yuan smiled, "Do you want to continue to practice with entities next time?" ”

"I don't!" After 888 finished speaking, he cut off the connection and shielded himself.

As a system, 888 only has its merits in its eyes, and emotions are all passing red dust for it, as long as you understand it, you don't need to be contaminated.

After the funeral, Qi Yuan was promoted by Zhao Yichen to be the head of the household department and assigned to Jiangnan to continue the tax reform. Tan Che continues to preside over the annual official assessment, as well as spot checks and supervision in various places.

Soon ten years passed, and the two also gave Zhao Yichen a perfect answer, the treasury was full, the officials ruled Qingming, and the beginning of the prosperous era really came.

All this is only a short period of ten years, if Emperor Zhou Yuan did not have that accident, he could wait for this prosperous feat. This made Zhao Yichen look at the next two people and couldn't help but sigh.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have something to do, and the money from the Ministry of Rites will be approved." Lord Liu, the current secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said with a red face.

Zhao Yichen was stunned, and couldn't help but look at Qi Yuan who was standing, "Liang Shangshu, Hubu?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the household department has no money. The silver has been granted to the Ministry of Rites, and there is really no money. Qi Yuan frowned and looked sincere.

Zhao Yichen looked at the Ministry of Rites, "Since the household is tight, let's save a little." ”

Liu Shangshu completely lost his temper and could only retreat aggrievedly.

"Your Majesty, the border barbarians have provoked many times, and the minister thinks that he should fight the barbarians in one fell swoop, once and for all." The one who spoke was General Zhou, who went out with 888 last time, and he was also a fierce general.

Qi Yuan glanced at it, and immediately stood up without waiting for Zhao Yichen to speak, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that what General Zhou said is very true, the treasury is full of grain and grass, and it should raise the prestige of our country." ”

Zhao Yichen's face was solemn, but in his heart he became more and more satisfied with Qi Yuan, "Accurate, General Zhou will lead his troops to the battle after the autumn harvest." It is bound to raise the prestige of my Great Zhou! ”

"The last general will live up to His Majesty's high expectations." General Zhou heard Qi Yuan say that the household department had no money just now, and he was worried about being dismissed.

Everyone understands that there is no money in the household department, and this is to raise His Majesty's army openly with the money of the household department.

But soon, the officials of the various ministries became more and more aware of Liang Cai, the secretary of the household department, how shameless this person valued by the two emperors was.

"Your Majesty, this year's silver ......"

"The household department has no money!"

"Your Majesty's small country to the south provokes ......"

"Your Majesty's treasury is full, fight!"

……

Since Qi Yuan sat in the position of the head of the household, he was willing not to be promoted, and he became a famous money bag in the Great Zhou. Every time the ministry wants to go to the household department to approve the silver, it is their biggest headache. Only those generals have been happy to blossom over the years, as long as they say that they are going to fight to ensure that they are rich.

Decades have passed, and Liang Ming has also entered the officialdom, and even went to the household department because of his worship of his father, which made the officials of the ministries more and more headaches.

But everyone has to admit that it is with such a money bag that the Great Zhou is afraid to surrender to the surrounding barbarians, and the territory of the Great Zhou has expanded a lot. The implementation of the commercial tax provided a good foundation for the prosperity of the Great Zhou, and the prosperous era came.

So when the bag fell seriously ill, everyone sighed.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has no regrets in this life, but there is one thing to ask for." Qi Yuan was lying on the bed, and Zhao Yichen was also old, but he still visited the patient in person.

Qingyuan said bluntly.

"Wechen has many enemies, please be kind to my wife and children after I die." Qi Yuan was left with this one task.

Zhao Yichen nodded, "Qingyuan, don't worry, I know." ”

Zhao Yichen really admires and trusts Qi Yuan, so he doesn't even claim to be me. You must know that Qi Yuan's talent is more than enough to be the prime minister, but for the trust of Emperor Zhou Yuan, he is willing to be a household secretary for a lifetime.

Qi Yuan smiled and nodded and looked at the prince on the side, although Qi Yuan had sat in the position of the head of the household for a lifetime, but everyone would not forget the genius who won the appreciation of the two emperors with a single policy.

Therefore, in addition to the Hubu Shangshu, Qi Yuan is also the prince's teacher, the prince's teacher.

There are not only Zhao Yichen who came to visit, but also the current prince.

"Your Majesty, my father doesn't want to be sick." Liang Ming said with red eyes.

Zhao Yichen sighed and left with the prince, and Qi Yuan died of illness soon after.
