Chapter 24: Meet the Emperor
"I'm not a man, I'm not a man or a woman!" said the little bell, wiping her nose.
Wang Xiaoming let out a long breath and said with a wry smile: "Hehe! How can I not be like this! We are all ...... people who have fallen from the end of the world." β
Little Bell raised her head, wiped a handful of tears from her sleeve and asked, "What's the matter?"
"It's the silver ticket and treasure that came out of Yuan Huazhong's house last night, and the task stipulates: it must be processed within 24 hours. β
"What do you mean?" said the little bell, puzzled.
- At the same time, a group of court officials came to Yuan Huazhong's mansion, Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, Wei Dazhong, Zhou Chaorui, and Gu Dazhang. plus Yuan Huazhong himself, known as the Six Gentlemen of Donglin.
Yang Lian said: "Pu Zhongxia! Where did you come from? This is in trouble! How can you lose the ledger." Alas......" Yang Lian sighed for a while, and the others also frowned.
"Actually, it's not so absolute! If an ordinary thief steals it, it's useless, I'm afraid of falling into the hands of the eunuchs. Zuo Guangdou said.
"Yes, you ......" Gu Dazhang shook his head at Yuan Huazhong, who looked frustrated, "Why didn't you order the arrows to be released? β
Yuan Huazhong spread his hands, "I gave the order! I didn't expect that thief to have such powerful magical powers! β
Gu Dazhang said sharply, "If you have to order the arrow to be released earlier, this is not the end of the matter......"
"Nonsense!" Yuan Huazhong said angrily, "Hindsight ......"
Gu Dazhang replied, "You are only hindsight...... The two refused to let each other go, and quarreled.
Wei Dazhong and Zhou Chaorui sneered on the side, Yang Lian shook his head, and only Zuo Guangdou spoke to dissuade him, "Don't quarrel, okay! If the quarrel is useful, you can keep arguing!"
"Lord Zuo is right!" Yang Lian said, "Let's mainly come up with a remedy now, otherwise, if this thing falls into the hands of Wei Zhongxian, the consequences will be unimaginable." β
Zuo Guangdou looked at Yuan Huazhong and asked, "Can you tell who it is? Eunuch or some acquaintance?"
"It's a strange sound, a bit like a eunuch, but not quite like a ...... Can't put into words how it felt. Yuan Huazhong said.
Yang Lian said, "It can't be Wei Zhongxian's eunuch, right?
Yuan Huazhong shook his head and said, "No! That's definitely not a sunflower book." β
"Could it be Wang Tiqian?" asked Zuo Guangdou.
Yuan Huazhong said with a smile, "What's more, Wang Tiqian can't even beat you." I still want to ...... with Ben."
Zuo Guangdou snorted coldly, and then said to Yang Lian: "Lord Yang, I still trouble you to go to the six doors." This thing has to get six doors out!"
Yang Lian nodded, thoughtfully, and did not speak.
ββHere, Wang Xiaoming told Xiao Bell all the meaning of the system task. After hearing this, the little bell frowned, and instantly turned into a little old man.
"Brother Wang! Now the wind is tight, and the outside is very strict! Silver tickets can still be handled, and it is very risky for those jewels to be exchanged for money! Those pawn shops must be watched by six doors. β
Alas! Wang Xiaoming shook his head and sighed, "I also know this, but this is a death order, a death mission! Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
"Who is giving you the task? So unkind!" Seeing that Wang Xiaoming shook his head and didn't say anything, Xiao Bell continued, "Can't you be lenient for a few days!
Wang Xiaoming nodded and shook his head, and after taking a long breath, he frowned and said, "You can't go out in broad daylight!
"Tell me what qualifies as a send-off, and let's see where to start. β
"Diseases, natural and man-made disasters, wars, etc., need money to solve ......"
"There is, there is, there is a goal!" said the little bell with a smile.
Wang Xiaoming hurriedly asked: "What is the goal? Can it be sent out? Does it meet the requirements?"
The little bell nodded and said, "Of course, you are like this, come ......" The little bell beckoned to Wang Xiaoming, and waited for Wang Xiaoming to come over, just like this, and said a way to deal with these treasures and silver tickets.
After listening to this, Wang Xiaoming gave a thumbs up to the little bell, "The little bell is so smart! Come on, kiss one!" Wang Xiaoming hugged the little bell to kiss him, but the little bell struggled hard, but Wang Xiaoming still took away the first kiss.
"Oops!" Little Bell spat out, "Your mouth stinks!"
According to the plan of the little bell, Wang Xiaoming entered the palace with the treasure and met Emperor Xizong in the carpentry room.
"Your Majesty, don't you rest, you should take care of your dragon body. Emperor Xizong glanced at it and continued to plank the planks.
Wang Xiaoming continued, "The slave heard that Nurhachi in the north is about to move, and if the war starts, money is a big problem......
Emperor Xizong looked at Wang Xiaoming and put down the planer in his hand, "Now that the imperial treasury is empty, if the war starts, it will not be an ordinary expense, do you have any good way to get money?"
"I have something here, the emperor will take a look at it first!" Wang Xiaoming took out the account book he got from Yuan Huazhong from his arms and held it in front of Emperor Xizong with both hands.
"What is this?" said Emperor Xizong.
"Your Majesty will know at a glance. Wang Xiaoming said mysteriously.
Emperor Xizong opened the account book and looked at it, his eyes immediately widened, and he was speechless in shock......
Wang Xiaoming nodded and said: "These Donglin party members say that they are for the country and the people all day long, but in fact, they form gangs and factions, and they are all filling their own pockets, if they are allowed to succeed, Daming will be in danger!"
"This is really unexpected!" Emperor Xizong looked at the ledger and kept shaking his head, "What do they want to do?"
"Judging from this, the Donglin Party uses money to form gangs and buy people's hearts. β
"With so much money, it would be nice if it could be used for national defense! Where did you get this thing? It couldn't be given to you by Yuan Huazhong!"
"This, is it possible!"
"Then you ......" Emperor Xizong smiled and nodded, "No matter what method you use to get it, this is a great achievement! If you have a way to solve the problem of military salaries for the imperial court, it will be great......"
"The minions now have some silver tickets and valuable things that they can donate anonymously. β
"Oh!~Hehe!" Emperor Xizong said with a raised eyebrow, "What treasure? It can't be a few night pearls and some jewels, right?"
"You ......" Wang Xiaoming was shocked in his heart! It seems that Emperor Xizong already knows what to donate. As for how this information was obtained, no one knows.
"Well, I heard that Puzhongxia is good...... Emperor Xizong nodded and looked at Wang Xiaoming playfully.
Ah!~ Wang Xiaoming was even more stunned when he heard this!
