Chapter 70: The Secret
You must know that the treasury is empty at the moment, and asking the ministers to donate at this time is nothing more than to test how much silver they still have in their pockets, and the donation cannot be too much will be exposed, and it cannot be too little, and the emperor will not like it.
Today, Bai Shangen ignored them and easily raised the amount for himself, which did cause some people to be dissatisfied, but it was still a last resort offer.
Zhuo Yu listened to the number one by one, and his heart was already smiling, and it was really happy to pit Bai Shangen when he put him in a desperate situation.
At the end of the early dynasty, some people were happy and some were worried, as soon as Bai Shangen came out of the palace gate, he was blocked by several ministers and said: "What your Excellency is doing today, where can you put a few of us?" ”
"What are you afraid of? Isn't it just that the emperor wants to ask for some silver from the bag? Be of good cheer, I will stand up for anything. ”
Bai Shangen didn't have much in his heart when he said this, because he couldn't guess the emperor's mind offline, could it be that he would let him go after bleeding once today?
After dealing with those ministers, Bai Shangen was exhausted when he returned to Funei, and Zhen Guogong came over at this time and said, "How much silver have you embezzled?" How to donate 100,000 taels at once today! ”
"The emperor doesn't want it, why don't you give it to him, don't be angry with your father." Bai Shangen was at a loss, and he had no energy to deal with Zhen Guogong at the moment.
Seeing him like this, Zhenguo Gong was also very angry, and loudly ignored the insults of others, and said in his mouth: "Others only give 10,000 taels, or even a few thousand taels, how much money can the ministers of the court and the central government have, aren't you blatantly saying that you are corrupt by doing this today?" ”
"The emperor has not made up his mind for a long time, what can I do!" Bai Shangen became anxious, only feeling that the Zhenguo Gong in front of him wanted to clear up the relationship too much, and said dissatisfiedly: "When I first became an official, my father said that you can do whatever you want, Wu Guobai's family is the biggest, and now that this kind of thing has happened, my father blames me, who is Biyue Villa?" Who is the concubine raised in it, the mother has been dead for more than ten years, but the father does not forget to enjoy himself! ”
"Son, son!" Zhen Guogong's old face turned red when he was said, and every word was like slapping him in the face, he was angry but speechless, so he could only leave.
Bai Shangen sat on the chair, feeling that all his strength had been stripped away, and his wife Li came over at this time, her belly was already seven months old, and she was about to give birth.
Although the Bai family has two sons, there is no movement in his wife's belly, let alone a concubine, and over time, now that his wife is pregnant, Bai Shangen really can't let go.
"Why did you come here, didn't you say that you should sit in the room obediently and don't move?"
Bai Shangen said with some blame, and Li Shi blushed and said worriedly: "Husband, I have been frowning for the past few days, is there something bad about it?" ”
"It's okay, you can raise the baby with peace of mind."
The relationship between the husband and wife is quite good, Bai Shangen touched the child in her belly and was particularly spoiled, and even his eyes became soft.
Li Shi also felt quite a lot in his heart in the face of Bai Shangen like this, but his eyes were still dimmed, and he didn't know what he was thinking?
"What? You say the child that Bai Shangen's wife is carrying is not his? ”
Zhuo Yu was shocked to hear the news from Situ Yu's mouth, not only Zhuo Yu but even Wei Chi Jin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, because Bai Shangen was a well-known favorite wife, how could such a thing happen.
"The emperor doesn't have to be too surprised, this matter was also accidentally seen by Weichen, Xiao Bei Wanli outside the city was secretly bought by the Li family a few years ago, and it was also a time when I saw him having a private meeting with a man, so I started to investigate."
"Why is such a big thing to say now, poor Bai Shangen, he has embezzled so much silver in his life, but he has no children to inherit it." Zhuo Yu couldn't help but feel sorry.
Wei Chi Jin couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and only felt that the emperor's focus was really incomprehensible, so he asked: "Then how does the emperor plan to punish Bai Shangen." ”
"Let's see." Zhuo Yu was a little soft-hearted, he only felt that Bai Shangen had done so many bad things, and in the end he actually suffered a loss to his beloved.
Situ Yu's eyes were a little dim after hearing this, and Zhuo Yu found out and immediately said: "Brother Situ, don't worry, I will still punish the Bai family, and I will never let this kind of person go unpunished." ”
"The emperor is serious, and this matter is decided by the emperor."
has developed to this point, the Bai family has been hit hard, Situ Shu is a little content, and the matter of the Bai family framing the Situ family back then has been written off, but it is just ......
Situ Ji looked at Yu Chi Jin, and when he saw peace, he couldn't see through what he was thinking? Although he didn't know his secret, he could faintly feel that his resentment towards the Bai family was deeper than his own.
In Yuning Palace, Bai Yiyi was also very nervous when she received the letter from Bai Shangen, because she couldn't hear anything outside in the harem, so she naturally didn't know what was going on.
It's just that the Bai family is about to face a change, Bai Shangen actually pinned his hopes on her who was pregnant with a dragon son, can the child hold the emperor's heart in less than two months?
Bai Yiyi touched her flat lower abdomen, and seemed to have made up her mind, of course she went to the Qianqing Palace to meet the emperor, Zhuo Yu was a little surprised, she didn't wait for the queen mother these days to wait for Bai Yiyi.
"Concubine An, why do you want to come to see me?" Zhuo Yu looked at Bai Yiyi, who was dressed thinly, and also asked the palace maid to send a cloak.
Looking at the cloak given by His Majesty, Bai Yiyi seemed to have more confidence in her heart, and walked to Zhuo Yu with a weak and weak expression: "Recently, I have been a little upset, and my concubine has not slept peacefully. ”
"Concubine An, what's wrong?" Zhuo Yu looked at her quietly, told her to lean over, and immediately turned around and said: "Concubine An usually has to pay attention to her body, but recently I have been infected with some wind and cold, Concubine An should go back to the palace to rest quickly." ”
Zhuo Yu knew that Bai Yiyi couldn't think of any tricks, and would only seduce people to disgust her, Zhuo Yu didn't have the energy to deal with her, so he found a reason to take her away.
Bai Yiyi couldn't get angry, so he could only leave.
When he returned to the palace, he saw that the lights were still on in Zhao Tianzi's room, so he pushed the door directly in, and Zhao Tianzi immediately hurriedly sorted out the map.
"Yo, what are you doing here?"
Bai Yiyi immediately stepped forward to grab the map in his hand, Zhao Tianzi quickly stepped forward to knock the person down and take the map back, Ling'er immediately shouted when he saw this: "Someone, Zhao Tianzi has beaten someone!" ”
"This palace is pregnant, you dare to hit this palace, go and call the emperor to call the emperor!"
When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly left to go to Qianqing Palace, Bai Yiyi originally wanted Zhao Tianzi to intercede with the emperor, but she didn't expect it to suddenly become like this, of course she would not let go of this opportunity, and immediately asked someone to take Zhao Tianzi down.
