The prince listened to the official's report on the tax situation, and couldn't help frowning: "What are the people below doing?!" What's the point with such a tax amount? Lonely, this is a lot of effort, co-authoring is to make wedding dresses for others......"

“…… cough, cough, cough," Yu Shiqing coughed repeatedly, interrupting the prince's next complaint, and several other officials also looked embarrassed, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince What is this saying, where is this what the prince said? He is the crown prince and the future master of this world. How can the taxes of the imperial court be to make wedding dresses for others?

Besides, Your Highness the Crown Prince, when did you put your effort into it?

Yu Shiqing lamented again and again in his heart, over the years, the prince has become more and more unsuccessful. Those of them who followed the prince to seek a future simply felt that the future was bleak and almost hopeless.

Originally, there was a blessed king watching the throne of the prince. And King Fu does have this strength, he has been diligent in government affairs over the years, has managed the Ministry of Industry in an orderly manner, and has shown his sharpness in state affairs.

He didn't dare to say that King Fu would not embezzle all kinds of money from the imperial court, but he dared to guarantee that King Fu would never be like the crown prince, who was so mad that he amassed wealth.

In the past two years, His Royal Highness King Yu has stepped into the court. In his opinion, King Yu is even more of a threat to the crown prince than King Fu. King Yu seems to be careless in everything, but the errands he can take over are all leaky.

At the beginning of the year, it was finally revealed that the wooden track had a large quality omission. But the family has a good life, relying on the two stacks of construction documents presented by Miss Ye, it is hard to turn the inferior into the best, and the construction of the building is greatly appreciated by the emperor.

The most important thing is that King Yu's hands and feet are clean. In the past few years, people have been wandering outside, but they are not wandering and not doing business, and they have earned enough belongings for themselves.

In recent years, thanks to the assistance of the granddaughter of An Guogong, the silver has earned a lot of money, and there is no need to reach out to collect money in court affairs, showing the clarity of His Royal Highness King Yu as an official. It seems that King Yu is the wise and clear king reserve.

Yu Shiqing swallowed his stomach full of sourness, and explained to the prince: "Your Highness, Yuanzhou and several surrounding states and counties have suffered a severe drought this year, and there has been no rain since the end of last year, and farming and commerce are extremely depressed. Not only did the old merchants no longer go there, but even the local business could not be sustained. Not to mention the field tax, it is estimated that there will be no harvest at all this year, and even the imperial court will have to provide disaster relief. ”

The prince felt annoyed when he heard this, Yuanju and the surrounding areas have developed commerce and trade, and it is a region with a lot of taxes, and it is easier to save taxes and silver. Let Yu Shiqing say this, won't several of his plans this year be shelved?

He stood up irritably, this place, no matter what time it was, was full of troubles that could not be dealt with, and he simply did not want to stay for a moment.

"Let the officials carefully check the situation in various places, and the imperial court tax is indispensable. Gu will also use silver in the near future, and give Gu 20,000 taels of silver as soon as possible, and use it urgently. ”

Yu Shiqing immediately made a bitter face, not to mention that the year is not good, even when the year is good, 20,000 taels of silver is also a large amount, where will he plan for the prince?

The prince tasted the sweetness of the railroad project the year before last, and he is used to such a big entry, right?

He hurriedly got up and sighed to the prince: "Your Highness, it's not that the ministers are not dedicated, it's really that the situation this year is not good, you have 20,000 taels of silver......" He really couldn't say it, even if it changed, there must be a place to put a huge amount of 20,000 taels of silver.

The prince frowned and looked at Yu Shiqing for a long time. If you can't do such a thing, how can it be of great use? If he still wants to enter the cabinet in the future, such a person is given a high position, how much can he do?

Yu Shiqing saw that the prince's face was not good, but he had no other way. He knew that, according to common sense, this person would inherit the unification in the future, not to mention that it could determine his net worth and life, but at least his career.

But for the prince's recent request to raise 20,000 taels of silver, he really can't do it, even if the knife is on his neck, he can't get so much silver.

"Your Highness, the situation in various places this year is really not good, do you see if you can use less or delay it a little?"

The prince frowned and glared at Yu Shiqing, and it took a long time to flick his sleeves and put down a sentence: "Then eight thousand taels, raise it as soon as possible." ”

Yu Shiqing shook his beard and stretched out his hand towards the back of the prince, but finally fell weakly. Eight thousand taels of silver is not a small amount, at this time, where will he raise it?

The prince came out of the household department and looked in the direction of Zhongshu Province, thinking about the old men and the officials and scribes who were in and out of the courtyard and were extremely bored, and then thinking about the pair of jasper bracelets that fell somewhere, and he was really in no mood to entertain a few bad old men.

The prince turned around resolutely and went back to the prince's mansion with a small entourage behind him.

Although there have been no newcomers in the Prince's Mansion recently, a new makeup fashion has been popular in the capital recently, and many concubines in the Prince's Mansion have learned to wear that kind of makeup, which is indeed very interesting and fresh.

Among them, Yaer is the most charming. Ya'er has been in the mansion for more than a year, and he has never found that there is such a lovely person in the mansion who attracts people's affection.

In vain, he called himself the Holy Hand of Flowers, and he boasted that he had the most unique vision for women, but he actually looked away and wasted more than a year of leisure time. Compared with Ya'er, many of the women he was obsessed with before were vulgar fans.

When he walked into the prince's mansion, the prince was not in a hurry. I slowly savored the heart-warming feeling that I was about to see the beauty, and while walking, I was looking for another yard for Ya'er to live in. I heard Ya'er say that the place where she lives now is really not worthy of her.

He also found out after asking yesterday that the lovely man actually lived in the same courtyard with many other women, and the place was also remote.

This can't be done, but he can't be wronged by his beauty.

When he was about to walk to the second gate, Shi Tan Weixian, the head of the prince's mansion, and two subordinates greeted him, and they were about to speak, but they were waved back by the prince and his entourage. Only a clever little eunuch remained, and followed him to the inner courtyard.

Although the palaces and pavilions of the Prince's Mansion are not as grand and solemn as those in the Imperial Palace, they were also built with great care. The eaves and blue tiles, the jade carvings, and the corridor waist are back, although there is a lack of some imperial atmosphere, but it is beautiful.

"Where does Miss Ya'er live? Lone didn't remember much yesterday. The prince asked the little eunuch beside him as he walked in the direction of the vague impression.

The little eunuch bowed his body, followed the prince's footsteps in broken steps, and replied: "Back to Your Highness, this is the direction, cross the corridor and walk down the slope for a while." ”

The prince glanced around, these stewards don't know how to arrange beauties? His concubines, whether they value it or not, shouldn't live in such a remote place.

Following the direction pointed by the little eunuch, he crossed the corridor and walked down diagonally, and the prince seemed to hear the sound of strings and bamboos in his ears. Faintly, there is also the woman's singing intermittent period, which seems to be melodious and rippling in the breeze. I want to talk about "Women's Beauty" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
