Ye Li's eyes were worried, and Qian Jin was late.

"Your Highness! It's really a lot of affairs, and I can't get out of it. It is the fault of the ministers to let His Highness wait for a long time, please forgive Your Highness!"

His attitude was extremely sincere, which made Ye Li's anger unbearable.

Raising his hand impatiently, he said, "Get up." Qian Jin, this king came to you for the relief of the disaster in Jingcheng."

Qian Jin immediately smiled with admiration: "The minister has heard about this. His Royal Highness wanted to share the emperor's worries and solve problems for the people at a young age. I believe that with His Royal Highness presiding over the overall situation, the people of Jingcheng will definitely get out of trouble as soon as possible!"

Ye Liwei never thought that he could say so much with this mouth, but it was undeniable that this sycophant made him very comfortable.

"How did Qian Shangshu get the beautiful words at his fingertips?" Ye Liwu put his hands on the armrests of the chair, feeling comfortable.

Qian Jin's small eyes were big and sincere: "Your Highness, this is not a beautiful word, this is admiration from the heart. As for how to do it, just one word, just tell the truth."

Ye Liwu laughed, this statement won his heart!

"Okay, no more nonsense. Ling Lie said that the silver two for disaster relief are looking for you, do you know about this?"

"I know, Ling Xiang has already told the minister."

"Then let the silver be brought over now, for the queen will set out on the day after tomorrow, and there will be plenty of supplies to be purchased tomorrow."

Qian Jin took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve and respectfully placed them on the table: "Your Highness, don't carry it, the minister has already brought it."

"Brought?"

Ye Li's eyes were confused, "You won't just do that, will you?"

Qian Jin was surprised inexplicably: "Your Highness, this is a lot, it's 50,000 taels!"

Looking at his serious eyes, Ye Liwu had the illusion that it was not 50,000 taels, but 5 million taels.

I picked up the silver ticket and counted it, and it was indeed 50,000 taels.

was angry at the moment: "Qian Jin, are you playing this king?"

Qian Jin immediately knelt down: "The minister is terrified, how dare the minister play with His Highness?"

Ye Liwei threw the silver ticket on him, and the snowflakes and silver fell to the ground one after another, as if laughing at him.

His fingers trembled: "Hundreds of thousands of disaster victims, you give this king 50,000 taels, and you dare to say that you are not playing this king?"

Qian Jin sighed, his eyebrows and eyes were full of melancholy.

"Your Highness, this year's harvest is not good, and the taxes collected in various places are one-third less than in previous years. Some time ago, there was a pest infestation and an earthquake, and there was not much left in the household, so the 50,000 taels were still scraped together."

The huge household department even has to make up a mere 50,000 taels, this is taking him as an ignorant child, right?

Raising his hand and slamming a cup in front of him, Qian Jin's face did not change, and he knelt extremely respectfully.

"Your Highness is angry!"

Ye Li rushed to him and said word by word, "How can this king calm his anger? Qian Jin, this is the first time this king has taken over such a major matter, do you have to make it difficult for this king?"

Qian Jin hurriedly kowtowed, extremely loud.

"Your Highness, the ministers are terrified! The minister's loyalty to His Highness can be seen by the sun and the moon, and the sky can be proven."

Ye Liwu felt that his loyalty was like this casual and perfunctory sycophancy, the geese passed without a trace, and left a smell to disgust him!

Snorted coldly and looked at him maliciously.

"Qian Jin, the jade wrench in your hand is worth a lot of money, right? You don't have any money in the household, but you are so extravagant, are you filling your pocket?"

Qian Jin unhurriedly took off the jade wrench: "Your Highness, this is really not worth anything, if Your Highness thinks it is worth a lot of money, and the minister is willing to donate it, you should do your part for the people of Jingcheng!" By the way, there's also a jade pendant!"

After the jade pendant, Qian Jin also took off the gold bracelet on his wrist, if it weren't for Ye Liwu to stop him, he could even pick off the jade on his belt

Looking at the scattered piles on the bookcase, Ye Li was really speechless, and his heart was even more blocked.

Qian Jin was very happy in his heart. Fortunately, I kept an eye on it, and I had already changed into a bargain before I went out.

With another long sigh, this

sighed with deep sadness and loneliness.

"Your Highness just said that the ministers are full of private pockets, and the ministers are really chilling. Even though the minister has a heart to show the sun and the moon, he can't get the trust of His Royal Highness. If Your Highness is suspicious, you can ask a holy decree to go to the household department to check the accounts, and the minister will not complain!"

Ye Li squinted slightly, gritting his teeth and staring at him with a fat face, "You have made up your mind to make this king unhappy!"

"Panic!" Another rattle.

"Qian Jin, don't toast and don't eat and drink, if you offend this king, you won't end well!" Ye Liwu was already furious, and when he took power, the first thing was to cut him!

"Don't dare!"

One by one, "the minister is afraid", "the minister does not dare", and all he does is what makes him angry.

Ye Li was worried and irritable, and directly asked him to get out.

Qian Jin slowly rolled out of the palace, what's the use of being brave and ruthless? Some of them ate this kind of stuffiness later!

Ye Li had no choice but to pick up the 50,000 taels of silver tickets, but after all, he couldn't swallow this breath and entered the palace again.

Hibiscus Hall.

The emperor leaned on the recliner and watched Ning Guifei cook tea.

Ye Shijing was also there, but he didn't practice calligraphy this time.

The pen, ink, paper, and inkstone have all fallen, and they will not be touched in the short term.

The cold wind was gusting outside, and the inside of the hall was as warm as spring.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, Your Royal Highness asks to see you." The palace maid Qingxing's report interrupted the warmth.

This was expected by the Emperor, "Let him in."

Ye Shijing was not much surprised, but it was slower than expected, thinking that Qian Jin was delaying time.

Ye Li tightened his clothes outside the hall, took a deep breath, and walked in slowly.

"Sons, see father and emperor, Ning Guifei Niangniang."

The emperor raised his hand and took the tea handed over by Concubine Ning.

Smelled, the fragrance was pleasant.

Take a sip and refresh your heart.

"I'll go to Jingcheng the day after tomorrow, how can I still have time to come?" The emperor glanced at Ye Liwu lightly, then withdrew his gaze and landed on the tea leaves floating in the cup.

Ye Liwu said respectfully: "Father, Qian Jin, the head of the household, deliberately made things difficult for his sons, and asked his father to be the master."

"Money in? How dare he make things difficult for you?" The corners of the emperor's mouth hooked, "Tell me about it."

Ye Li hung his head worriedly, extremely aggrieved.

"Father, the son asked him for a silver tael for disaster relief, and he only gave 50,000 taels. If he asked for more, he began to cry poor. Father, how can 50,000 taels be enough for those hundreds of thousands of taels? He obviously just wants to make a fool of his son!"

The Emperor put down his cup with a look of displeasure.

"Why did he make a fool of you?"

Ye Li looked at Ye Shijing with hatred: "Qian Jin is the third brother's person, and he deliberately made a stumbling block for his sons in order to please his master!"

Ye Shijing's eyes were calm, and he slowly lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down: "Father, the fourth brother is purely out of nothing. Erchen is sitting upright, how can he instruct Qian Jin to embarrass him when the people of Jingcheng are in dire straits? Please see it!"

The Emperor motioned for him to get up.

"Don't be unscrupulous. Although 50,000 taels is not much, there are too many natural disasters this year, and I think it is the limit of the household. Besides, Qian Jin has been the head of the household department for many years, and he acts in a very measured manner, so it is impossible for him to make things difficult for you in this kind of matter."

"Father, that old guy in Qian Jin is an old fox, he has only a lot of money, and he even donated the jade wrench, gold bracelet, and jade pendant without blinking an eye, he must be greedy for a lot of people's fat and ointment, so he is so willing!"
