Lin Hanzhang took the account book, flipped a few pages and said, "What does the prince think is wrong?" ”

"This year's salary."

Shen Huaijin shook his head, "Why will the military salary be increased this year?" It doesn't make sense. If it was to defend against the invasion of the Hu people, after invading Qingyue, I led the local people and the team of the Beida Battalion to resist. ”

"The army in the imperial city has not moved at all, could it be that the northwest has increased troops? However, I have never heard of the Ministry of War mentioning this matter. ”

Lin Hanzhang thought about it for a while, and looked at the account book for a long time, but he didn't have a clue.

He put down the ledger and said, "This matter still needs to be investigated." I don't know how the preparations for Wang Ye's trip to Yingzhou are? Can all this year's tribute be pawned out? ”

Shen Huaijin nodded, "I entrusted the emperor to solve it quickly, but these things in this mansion are just a drop in the ocean, and the four princes are mainly raised money." ”

"The Four Princes?" Lin Hanzhang said: "Does the prince know what method the four princes used to raise money?" ”

Shen Huaijin thought for a moment, "If I'm not mistaken, Sima Heng mentioned to me his own uncle, King Xiyun. ”

"King Xiyun had countless military exploits back then, and because the queen was favored by the emperor, he was treated as a king with a different surname than his uncle."

“…… The reason why King Xiyun retreated from the battlefield was also because he contracted an injury on the battlefield, and later received the back cover, and the trading in Xiyun was also prosperous. ”

Speaking of commerce, the most prosperous area of Qingyue's economy is not the capital, but the land of Xiyun.

This group of people seems to have an innate business mind, and there is no unthinkable business in the land of Xiyun. Anything is about to become a deal.

In fact, many people in Xiyun privately turned Xiyun into a small Kyoto, but after all, this matter violated Tianwei, so the king of Xiyun ordered that this kind of name was absolutely not allowed.

The king with a different surname itself is easy to arouse the suspicion of the emperor, and then because of this kind of trivial matter and centrifuge from the emperor, it is really not cost-effective, yes, the king of Xiyun has been staying in Xiyun for so many years.

Except for the occasional summons from the emperor, he is obsessed with various businesses on weekdays.

In the affairs of the court, it is enough to have his sister, who can always set off strong winds and waves, to intervene.

On the one hand, he is also helping Jia Nanfeng to better form a gang in the palace and avoid attracting too much attention from Emperor Jiayi.

On the other hand, he is also protecting himself, after all, the birds are hiding in the slingshot, and the cunning rabbit is cooking the dead lackey, this truth, Zhao Mingyi is the most clear.

This practice really made Emperor Jiayi relax his vigilance against the Zhao family, so it also allowed Jia Nanfeng to begin to accumulate a certain amount of strength in the imperial court.

Since Zhao Mingyi did not have the strength to lead troops at the moment, there was only one army in Xiyun that could only supply the local defense.

"The military salary that the prince said may have been allocated to Xiyun."

Lin Hanzhang only understood when he said this, "If you want to strengthen your defense, so as to apply to the imperial court for an increase in military salaries, it is a good way to make money." ”

Shen Huaijin was puzzled: "What do you mean by this? ”

Lin Hanzhang shook his head, "Maybe only when you go to Yingzhou to find out about the plague, can the minister explain this matter to the prince." ”

Thinking that he had not yet faced the saint, Lin Hanzhang decided to make it clear before leaving, "The minister has a reluctant request, and I hope the prince can agree." ”

Shen Huaijin said lightly: "Let's talk about it, I'll do my best." ”

"Please go back to the inn to see Zijin, she is very worried about the prince."

Lin Hanzhang glanced at the ink-colored big cloud, "The reason why Zijin will let this official bring this big piece to the prince is that he doesn't want to see it and make him sad." The prince isolated Zijin from his life, and he didn't really make her safe. ”

Shen Huaijin never thought that her departure would be able to affect Su Zijin's emotions like this, she was used to being very arrogant on weekdays, and she rarely showed such a weak side in front of him.

There was also a little guilt in his eyes, and he couldn't help but say, "Okay, I'll go back to the inn to see her." ”

With that, he put the big gun away.

Lin Hanzhang nodded, "Then I will take the first step and go to Your Majesty." ”

With that, he walked in the direction of the Jinluan Palace.

Inside the Golden Luang Palace.

I saw a person slowly pacing over, this calm and unhurried appearance, Emperor Jiayi knew that it was Lin Hanzhang without looking at it.

"Why is Aiqing so late today?"

The news he ordered someone to bring was not here today, but Lin Hanzhang was late, and he didn't see his figure until Shen Shi.

This is not to blame Lin Hanzhang.

After he woke up today, he talked to Ah Quan, went to Su Zijin's house to see her, and then went to the prince's mansion and chatted with Shen Huaijin heartily, so it was understandable that he was late.

Lin Hanzhang bowed, "I just went to the prince's mansion for a trip, and I hope Your Majesty will understand." ”

"The Prince's Palace?" Emperor Jiayi smiled, "You and Prince Gong are quite close. However, Prince Gong did serve the people with virtue, and there was no Zhao step in earlier, and he was a universal response in the court. ”

Lin Hanzhang was still silent on his face, but he thought in his heart that Prince Gong's outstanding virtue was also seen by the world, and in places that everyone could not see, there was also his own darkness.

As an emperor, the benevolence of the house can only be superficial.

really wants to achieve the imperial industry, in addition to killing decisively, stepping on the corpses of countless people step by step, blood flowing in his hands.

Blood flowed thousands of miles, corpses were everywhere, and the royal family was another cruel battlefield.

Lin Hanzhang's mind suddenly passed through a thousand times, and it was not until Emperor Jiayi called out that he regained consciousness.

"What did Lin Qing think about being so distracted? It seems that there have been several times more things that have plagued Lin Qing recently than usual. ”

Lin Hanzhang nodded, "What the prince said is right, Weichen is indeed a lot of confusion. During the trip to Yingzhou, His Majesty knew that it was best for Prince Gong to go, why was he willing to let the four princes go with him? ”

Plague is completely different from disaster relief, plague is a bottomless pit, there is no possibility of cure, but it has to spend a steady stream of money, flowers and herbs.

Shen Huaijin wants to save the disaster in the entire Yingzhou by himself, but he is afraid that he is powerless, and he may eventually collapse his body.

That's why he specially told Sima Heng about Yingzhou, but he didn't tell him that Shen Huaijin had asked for his life in advance, just waiting for him to come to the door to mention it.

And when Sima Heng and Shen Huaijin have always been rivals, Sima Heng is a young man, and when he heard that Shen Huaijin robbed him of his errand, he was bound to make a fuss.

And this trouble can make Emperor Jiayi see clearly which queen's henchmen are in the court.

Those who stood up to speak for the four princes that day must have been the queen's henchmen.

Although on the one hand, he is helping Shen Huaijin, on the other hand, it is also Emperor Jiayi's practice in order to test the queen's henchmen.
