Chapter 755: Life Is So Hard
After being reminded by Li Fu, Concubine Zhen collected her mind again and told her purpose for coming this time.
Regarding the account books of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she found out that there was indeed a problem, but this matter came before the previous governor.
After this person came, he found a deficit and didn't dare to report it, so he kept trying to find a way to fill in the hole.
But the hole is so big that it can't be filled in a while, so they have a lot of ideas.
Moving back and forth, causing a lot of problems in the accounts, and now it's really a troublesome thing.
Concubine Zhen didn't look up, finished talking about the matter, and didn't forget to defend herself: "The concubine was supposed to go back to the queen's mother, but ...... But the palace people of Lingshuang Pavilion said that the queen mother was out of the palace, so she had to trouble the emperor. ”
Ling Tiancheng didn't pay much attention to the latter paragraph, and only asked her, "Can you find out what is the deficit?" ”
Concubine Zhen shook her head: "The head of the Internal Affairs Office has changed many times, the previous one has already left the palace and can no longer be found, and this one said that he doesn't know at all." ”
Ling Tiancheng asked again, "Then what is your problem now?" ”
His words had always been cold, and when he mentioned the key issues, his voice was still stern, so the hands in Concubine Zhen's sleeves had long been nervously twisted together.
At this time, even his fingers twisted red, he looked up at Ling Tiancheng timidly, hung his head down numbly, and then said with his eyes almost closed: "The concubine needs to transfer all the past accounts, and she also needs to know some major events that have happened in the palace in the past few years." ”
She was so nervous that she struggled hundreds of times.
But Ling Tiancheng solved it in one sentence: "Li Fu, you go to the Internal Affairs Office to deliver a message, in the future, Concubine Zhen has the right to call all the materials and account books of the Inner Palace, if anyone has any disagreement, let them come to me." ”
Li Fu agreed slipperily, and without waiting for Concubine Zhen to go out, he first received the order to deliver the decree.
Concubine Zhen is standing there, it's really like a dream.
It's not that she hasn't had such a big deal with Ling in the past, even if it's a very small thing, she will be rejected.
When she came this time, she really didn't lie at all, she did go to Zhuang Siyan, thinking that she would come forward to check those accounts, or give her a little right, as long as she could check these accounts clearly.
But it was just in time, when she went to Lingshuang Pavilion, Zhuang Siyan and the others happened to leave the palace.
Concubine Zhen also thought about waiting for her to come back, but somehow, she thought that she was here to find Ling.
And so it turned out.
"Is there anything else?" Ling Tiancheng's voice asked in front.
Startling Concubine Zhen, she quickly knelt down and kowtowed to retire.
Ling Tiancheng didn't pay attention to her anymore, bowed his head and just took care of his own affairs.
It wasn't until Concubine Zhen went out and Li Fu came back that he raised his head again and said to Li Fu: "There are many accounts in the inner palace in the past, which are not so easy to check, and the queen mother is really busy, and she is not good at checking these fine things, so I will hand it over to Concubine Zhen to deal with in the future, if someone makes it difficult, you should also pay attention to it, and in addition, pull a few people for her." ”
Li Fu had just come back from outside, and the cold on his body had not yet dissipated, and he went out non-stop.
Thinking all the way, what's wrong with this emperor? looks as good as the queen's mother, how did you transfer the rights of the harem to the hands of the concubine?
Being able to check the harem information and accounts, that's not a small power, in the past, it was the exclusive use of those who held the phoenix seal, let alone check it all, just if you want to see a little bit, you have to go through layers of checkpoints, whether you can see it or not is a thing.
Concubine Zhen is here
After so many years in the palace, he has almost cultivated himself into a floor tile in the palace.
It looks essential, but it's so ordinary that it can only be stepped on.
Li Fu didn't have the habit of bullying them, especially after Zhuang Siyan came, even if he had a little bit of this kind of problem in the past, he changed it.
But in my heart, I really don't think there's anything special about Concubine Zhen.
But such a person who has nothing special has suddenly won the favor of the emperor, which is really incomprehensible.
Li Fu thinks so, and he also has his reason, in the eyes of ordinary people, status and power are together.
With status, there will be corresponding rights.
Zhuang Siyan is the queen, and the right to manage the harem will be hers.
But no one knew that Ling Tiancheng had other plans now.
Of course, before he said it, in the eyes of others, he wanted to empathize with him, divert his love for the queen, and focus on Concubine Zhen.
This small change in the palace soon caused a lot of shock.
They are all alive by looking at other people's faces, so they will naturally look at the direction of the wind and find a good boat.
As soon as Ling Tiancheng paid attention to Concubine Zhen, even the most inconspicuous little eunuch and palace maid began to pay attention to her.
Usually when she has nothing to do, she goes around the gate of her palace, and when she meets, she hurriedly steps forward to ask for peace, in order to transfer herself to her palace.
Of course, no one dared to despise Zhuang Siyan.
Not to mention that she still occupies the position of the queen, even if she is nothing, she can be domineering, and the legends that came out in the cold palace in the past are still remembered in the hearts of some people.
She even dared to scratch the emperor, and even Manager Li dared to smash the chair, what else did she dare not do?
These changes in the palace were unknown to Zhuang Siyan outside.
She was taking Ling Tiantian with her at this time, sitting in Wen Qing's warm pavilion.
To be honest, it's not really comfortable in this warm pavilion.
You can see the snow outside, smell the fresh flowers, drink the fragrant tea, and not be cold.
As soon as Zhuang Siyan arrived here, he took off the brocade robe on his body, threw it on the bench casually, and then looked at the two people snuggling up to each other and said, "You guys are too good at enjoying it, right?" It's not a good day, I want to move out of the palace, and I just want to live here with you. ”
As soon as Ling Tiantian heard this, she immediately grabbed Zhuang Siyan's clothes: "Queen Mother, I'll come with you." ”
Wen Qing: "......"
He really didn't have a good impression of Siyan, especially after knowing that she began to investigate herself.
But he really can't be fierce against Ling Tiantian.
After being awkward for a while, he sneered and said, "I can't afford to entertain you here, and you can't dig three feet into the ground when you come." ”
When Zhuang Siyan heard this, he was not angry at all, but said with a smile: "I don't want to dig either, how tired I am, especially in this cold and snowy place, so I'm here again, you tell me what's going on, wouldn't it be good?" ”
Wen Qing gave her a roll of his eyes.
After they came, Mi Yueqing had been half-leaning on Wen Qing's body all the time.
Ling Tiancheng didn't come this time, and Wen Qing didn't let her avoid it, but just put a plate of desserts in front of her and let her take it and eat it.
The food is still very slow, and each bite is stuffed in, as if it is going to be chewed for a long time.
Of course, Zhuang Siyan brought it from the palace, she didn't eat it, she didn't even look at it, and pushed the plate away.
Zhuang Siyan's gaze was on her from time to time, or on the dessert.
I don't know what Wen Qing is
Thinking about it, he may think that Zhuang Siyan will not give up if he doesn't say it, so he held back for a while, and finally asked with gritted teeth: "If you have any questions, you just ask." ”
Zhuang Siyan was waiting for his words, and as soon as he heard it, he immediately came to his senses, sat up straight, and pinched a piece of Mi Yueqing's dessert and put it in his mouth.
As a result, I couldn't bear it, and I silently vomited it again.
She looked at Ling Tiancheng with a smile: "I want to know what is going on with her, have you found a way to treat her now?" ”
Wen Qing: "You have seen what she looks like, and I don't have a treatment here." ”
"Then what are you doing with so many pills?" She was in too much of a hurry, and she felt inappropriate as soon as this remark came out.
Sure enough, when he looked up at Wen Qing, he successfully received a big white eye.
But Zhuang Siyan didn't care, he smiled and said: "You know all about this, and I won't hide it, I'm really curious, what are you doing with those medicines, I thought you found a way to cure Yueqing?" ”
Wen Qing gritted his teeth, estimating that the back sockets were about to wear out a layer, so he looked at him coldly and said, "I didn't make it, it was Mi Huai'an himself." ”
"Huh? Mi Huai'an, what does he do with those medicines? "The more I talk about it, the more confusing it becomes.
But this confusion was only a moment's work, and it was explained clearly by Wen Qing.
Wen Qing used to do things for Ling Tiancheng, and all expenses, including his own life, were naturally paid by Ling Tiancheng.
At that time, he didn't think about it so much, after all, he was the prince before, and he was used to enjoying a rich life, and what Ling Tiancheng gave him was of course far from when he was the prince.
He even felt that he was very tolerant of humiliation, and he could still insist on doing things for him under such conditions.
But he later left the capital and went to Jincheng, and then went to many places, until he later went to the northwest.
He has seen too many people and too many things.
Suddenly, he understood that Ling Tiancheng was not rich at all, and not all the silver in the treasury was his.
And there really isn't much silver in the treasury.
And the days without silver are really bitter, and those people who starve to death, and because of a little rice, they are in a hurry to sell their sons and daughters, there are everywhere.
The more I watched, the heavier my mood became.
In the past, he also felt that it was not good to be an emperor, and the reason for the bad came from the trivial matters presented by the ministers, as well as the endless struggle in the palace.
Now he really feels tired of being an emperor.
Because when he came back with Mi Yueqing, he refused Ling Tiancheng's request to give him silver again.
The network in his hand is scattered, and if it is not dispersed, it will also be transferred to Ling, just an idler with a little relationship.
So what reason does this idler have to take his money again?
Ling Tiancheng was not reluctant, he still knew Wen Qing very well, he had a request, he would respond, he would refuse, and he would not force it.
Wen Qing, who has been cut off from economic income, has to bear the expenses of these people on the one hand, and also treats Mi Yueqing, so the silver is naturally not enough.
Besides, he is also poor to be romantic, and he always wants to make the environment a little better, so that Mi Yueqing's mood is better, maybe there will be hope for her illness.
With such a toss, his expenses will be even greater.
In the past, I changed houses, not all because the place was not good to live in, but a large part of the reason was that there was not enough money.
