Chapter 103: Companion Like a Tiger
"Your Majesty ~ The Nine Marquis King has arrived!"
In the diligent fast, the emperor was studying calligraphy, and the white guard reported softly.
"Let him in~" The emperor kept writing and writing fluently.
The Nine Marquis King walked into the room slowly, not in a hurry as usual, and walked to the desk and slowly knelt down.
"Uncle Huang! Do you know who I've relied on the most over the years? ”
"Old ministers and Han Wen Han Imperial Master," the Nine Marquis King said lightly.
"Twelve years ago, the two of you supported the widow to ascend to the throne, and the widow has always kept this matter in mind, so the widow also understands that when the two of you discuss state affairs on the other side, the widow can not be mixed with any concerns, but in just a few days..." ”
"The old minister is willing to die, but I hope the emperor understands that the old minister has no disobedience and just wants to protect the royal bloodline!" The Nine Marquis King looked majestically ahead, and every word was said sonorously and powerfully.
"Uncle Huang!" The emperor suddenly roared, "You are forcing the widow, do you see that there are still people available in the court now?" Thank God for being able to protect one's self! A few days ago, Li Jian was beheaded, and the canal south of the Huai River immediately had problems, and they were clearly provoking the widows! The emperor poked his chest and said, "But what can the widow do?" Settle the matter and take out the money from the treasury obediently! ”
"Old minister..."
"Uncle Huang! The widow really doesn't dare to believe you anymore, alone! Let's go home! The farther away the better..."
"Emperor Xie!" The Nine Marquis King slowly retreated, without showing a trace of emotion on his face.
"Bai Mo ~ let Cao Gan come over!"
After receiving the emperor's order, the white guards immediately came to the place of Gonggong Cao, but after pushing the door and entering, they saw that he had died bleeding from all over the world, and he was still holding an unknown bottle of poison in his hand...
Jiuhou Wangfu deliberately set up a few tables of banquets tonight, Jiuhou Wang gathered all his heirs and daughters together, although I don't know how to like it, everyone still enjoys this atmosphere, after three rounds of banquets, everyone is lying on the table and falling asleep, only Jiuhou Wang drank alone and shed tears, I don't know how many glasses were poured, and no drop of wine was poured out of the wine jug, Jiuhou Wang stood up and came to the wine cellar to take out a few jars of old wine and smashed them in all corners of the room, laughing wildly while smashing, a pale hair gradually spread out, drunk people are not intoxicated, His eyes were still as firm as ever, the candle was pushed, he changed into a robe, stepped on straw sandals, closed the door of the Jiuhou Palace, picked up the hat behind him and put it on his head, and walked towards the south gate with a roar of songs on crutches, I don't know who can recognize the Jiuhou King who was once above 10,000 people and under one person...
"I am ~ holding a soft crown, and I eat it... Agar in the sky, beautiful woman ~ with left and right, flesh and bones! Sitting on his knees, he cares about the throne, as if he is carrying thorns! Stepping is like pacing! Now take off the glory of your life, put on a monk's robe and put it into half of the red dust..."
In the early morning of the second day, the early dynasty in the Zichen Hall was a little different from the past, one was that everyone found that the emperor's personal father-in-law had been replaced, and the second point was that the officials who did not have a single fold on weekdays were holding a number of folds in their hands today, as if they were extremely busy with official business, waiting for the emperor's acceptance.
"If you have something to do, you can play early, and you have nothing to retreat!"
"Chen Huaizhou is too guarded to report something!"
"The minister Suzhou is too guarded to report something!"
"Minister..."
The officials present said that they had important things to do.
"Why are there so many things going on today?" The emperor said majestically: "Huaizhou is too guarded! You speak first! ”
"Yes! Your Majesty, the Huaizhou area canal that was reported some time ago made up the plan, and Weichen re-planned, the original one-year project only took three months to complete, and the funds could be saved seventy percent! ”
"Huh? Why the sudden turn for the better? The Emperor asked, puzzled.
"Over the years, all industries in Huaizhou have been flourishing, grain is abundant, and rich merchants and rich peasants have donated money and materials to repair the canal when they know that the canal is damaged!"
"That's the people's own money, how can you ask for it, let's go as planned."
After listening to the emperor's words, Huaizhou Taishou didn't know how to answer, squeaked and couldn't speak, and cold sweat began to break out on his face, "But... But the emperor... This money is not easy to return, so it should be regarded as a practice done by local residents for their own benefit, right? ”
"Exactly! Anything else? Ladies and gentlemen, go on! Suzhou Taishou, what about you? ”
"Back to the emperor, about the taxation of Suzhou, Weichen re-planned, originally every Ding Na silk two zhang, cotton three taels can be added to Na silk three zhang, cotton four taels! And rich and abundant! Suzhou Taishou's slightly trembling hands were dragging a few books.
"A few days ago, the widow also discussed with you about paying taxes, and you said that you can't raise taxes? It's only been a few days and you're rich and rich? ”
"Back to the emperor! A few days ago, it was the statistics made by the subordinates of the Weichen faction, and after discussing with the emperor, I felt that there must be a mistake on the part of the subordinates, so in the past few days, the micro-ministers have done it himself, and the statistics have been re-counted, and what the emperor said is indeed just right! ”
Some people are abnormal, and some people are puzzled, after retreating from the court, some unknown officials immediately surrounded Huaizhou Taishou and others to ask.
"Lord Xia, is the restoration of your canal in the south of the Yangtze River still related to the tide? If it rises, it will be lightly repaired, and if it falls, it will fall hard? A sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked official teased.
"You know a!" Suzhou Taishou burst into a foul word, and the sweat stains on his forehead have not disappeared.
"What the hell is going on?" Another official asked, seemingly unaware.
"Xu Liangfeng of Bahemen. Do you know why he didn't come? Huaizhou Taishou said softly.
"I don't know? I really didn't pay attention to this old man! ”
"I went to investigate the case, the Jiuhou Mansion was destroyed last night, you don't know about such a big thing?"
"Huh? What's going on? ”
"I heard that it is the Nine Marquis King who is in the emperor..."
"Don't talk nonsense! Don't talk nonsense! The rumors in Chang'an City, I have something, I'll go first! ”
Some people have already sensed something, and they have chosen to leave in advance.
"Therefore, there are several masters in Chang'an City, who think that they are hereditary titles, and after being a hero, they secretly stumble on the emperor, just looking for death... He almost pulled me into the water, but fortunately I woke up in time and didn't continue to make a fuss about the canal! "Suzhou Taishou wiped his forehead" probably means to figure it out for yourself~ I won't say it, the old man, I still want to be in the same house for five generations! After saying that, he walked away.
