Chapter 118: Money
The raging thunder and lightning imbued its proud power throughout the body of the Tower of Thorns, and the thunder light that was incompatible with the style of the Imperial City spread around the tower, destroying both residential buildings and government buildings.

The big names in the palace are a mess, they have the ability to assist in decision-making, they can make suggestions and modify the emperor's orders, so that everything can be exchanged for the best benefit of the blue sky bird.
It was time for them to do their part, but they could only twist the greasy fat around the main hall like the bubbles of rice in a hot porridge.
"Where is Your Majesty? Where is His Majesty Edward V? ”
"Princess Rose, please invite the princess to preside over the overall situation!"
"How can anyone who is in charge not be there? Find it! ”
At this juncture, Emperor Edward V actually disappeared. Without an order from the emperor, the ministers talked about revisions. The premise of auxiliary decision-making is to make a decision, and they do not have the power to make a decision.
"Money, it's all money!"
The minister started out as a whisper, then it simply turned into a big fuss. Wan Lou sat on the side of the main hall, he played with his beautiful ring, crossed Erlang's legs, and posed as if he had nothing to do with himself.
"National teacher, hurry up and think of a way!" The Chancellor of the Exchequer is now the most flustered one in the main hall, and he keeps circling around Wanlou, and the wind he brings brings a lot of coolness to Wanlou.
All the ministers looked at Wan Lou at the same time, and the expectant eyes made Wan Lou have a sense of responsibility and a sense of moral restraint.
"That's right, as the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility. Now that His Majesty the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine are missing, the people of the Blue Sky Bird should be waited for by us. National teacher, you are deeply loved by Your Majesty, and you are favored on weekdays, but now that the imperial city is in trouble, it is time to repay Your Majesty. "Someone should make peace.
"Please lead the national teacher to fight against natural disasters, we will do our best and die without giving up!" The Chancellor of the Exchequer said righteously.
"Do your best, never give up!"
Hmph, high-sounding, everyone knows each other's details, who can't understand what you're thinking? Wan Lou hummed a little song softly.
Wan Lou will not care, if he takes on the banner of dealing with the heavenly punishment disaster now, it will not be of any benefit to him. What if he succeeds, he is already a division of a country, and the position he has reached is already far beyond the reach of others. There is no shortage of money, unlimited power, and what reward can be obtained for meritorious service in fighting disasters?
On the contrary, if he fails, now all those in the main hall who promised him "never give up" will distance themselves from him. They will participate in a book in front of the emperor and shift all the responsibility for the failure of the disaster resistance to Wan Lou.
"Your Majesty, if it weren't for the national teacher's insistence on going his own way at that time, our losses would not have been so great! He ignores you and the princess, and does it without permission, messing around, and doing it without a detailed plan...... Alas, please rule on Your Majesty! ”
Wan Lou helped them already think about what they should be able to say, after all, he hadn't heard these people shirk their responsibilities in the main hall once or twice.
"Where is the place where the heavenly punishment comes?" Wan Lou asked knowingly, lazily stretching his waist on the chair.
"In the Tower of Thorns."
"Tower of Thorns, all the prisoners of the Imperial City are locked up above the tower, and all the goods of the auction are locked under the tower, right?" Wan Lou said.
"Yes, yes, the Tower of Thorns is extremely important!" It seems that Wan Lou understands the significance of the Tower of Thorns to the Blue Sky Bird, which allows the ministers to explain with less words.
Because they were too anxious, they didn't think for a while that the national teacher Wanlou could understand most of the things in the imperial city through formation calculations.
"If the prisoner dies due to an accident that does not comply with the procedure, if this happens, it should be the responsibility of the captain of the Imperial City Guard, Baron. Where are the others now? Wan Lou asked with squinted eyes.
You look at me, I look at you, and after you look at each other, you look at other people. When the quick face-to-face identification was over, everyone shook their heads.
No Tyrannosaurus found.
"He's not in the main temple, maybe he's already on his way to the Tower of Thorns. Each time he will be at the center of the incident and solve all the problems on his own. A person familiar with the habits of the Tyrannosaurus said.
Counting the time, the Imperial Guards and the Imperial City Knights should have reached the Tower of Thorns, and they have reached the unfortunate moment that word of mouth in the ranks - to carry out the order.
Because things are too uncontrollable, they can't hide in the palace and have fruitless arguments like royalty and nobles.
I can only rely on the Tyrannosaur, but ......
Tyrannosaurus can only solve problems on his own, his team doesn't like to listen to his dispatches, and they are basically all cowards.
"There's a Baron, don't worry. Heavenly Punishment doesn't seem to have any effect on the Palace. Wan Lou said lightly.
Well, there's some truth to that. As soon as everyone heard Wan Lou's comfort, the expressions on their faces were soothed.
But there is one person who is very uneasy.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer shouted: "National teacher, the life and death of the prisoners do not care at all, they are already guilty criminals, and even if they steal a grain of rice, they should be put to death!" Their lives are born cheap, and they don't have to care about the details of early and late death. But the treasures placed under the Tower of Thorns, those are all money. If you put your money in the fire and burn it, can you not feel distressed? ”
Someone patted the Chancellor on the shoulder and comforted him: "Calm down first, money is something outside of you." You see, isn't the national teacher also trying to figure out a way......"
"Shut up!" The Chancellor of the Exchequer shook off the hand on his shoulder, turned his head and scolded everyone in the main hall: "Those who are self-interested are those who are high-eyed and low-minded." You retarded people who only know how to spend money but don't know how to make money, once this batch of goods becomes ashes, once this auction that has been planned for a year is canceled, the consequence will be that the treasury will be empty, and the reputation of the blue sky bird will also suffer the greatest blow. When the time comes, when the principal is insufficient, the trade will be reduced to a minimum, and the country will die! ”
"Master Li, how can you say such alarmist words!" Someone's eyes widened and he scolded angrily.
As an important minister of the state, it is already a big crime to make remarks that endanger the country in public.
But the Chancellor of the Exchequer was angry, and his eyes widened, and he had the momentum of a war against the crowd.
"Don't pretend one by one, everyone has been corrupt for so long, scooping up all the oil and water in the treasury spoonful by spoonful. You know even better than I do about how much money is left in the treasury! ”
"Shut up!" Wan Lou scolded loudly, he waved his hand for the soldiers to pull the Chancellor of Finance down, and said, "Lord Li said something dizzy because of overwork, please go back and rest first." ”
"IOUs, the most things in the treasury right now are IOUs!"
"Without money, I'll see how long you can spend all your time! If you go back to the days of 'uniting and overcoming difficulties together' in the imperial city, do you still have the heart to live while gnawing on the radish head and hugging the skin-covered woman? ”
