Looking at the four women in front of him who were no more than twenty years old, Zhu Youzhen sighed with emotion in his heart.

Wei Zhongxian is really level, and his vision for choosing women is extremely tricky.

The four women sent tonight have their own merits, and their eyebrows and eyes exude different temperaments, but they are all stunning without exception.

Even when he was a king, he didn't have this treatment, let alone when he was a social animal before he crossed over.

His dead cheap royal brother really raised a good dog with human nature.

"Wang Companion, find someone to search them."

Zhu Youzhen leaned on the chair and commanded Wang Chengen.

Wang Chengen received the order, found a few palace maids, and searched carefully on the four of them.

Soon, a pill the size of a millet was found in the belt of their clothes.

"It's called Ecstasy, right?"

Hearing this, the faces of several women changed drastically, and they lay on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Find a place to settle them."

It seems that someone is starting to get anxious.

Zhu Youzhen stood up, waved his hand at Wang Chengen, and turned around and went to Kunning Palace.

He needs to communicate with Zhou.

September 1.

Zhu Youzhen received Wei Zhongxian's dismissal, and sprinkled a large article. The central idea is that he is old and old, and he is overwhelmed by his responsibilities, and he wants to resign from his position as the governor and eunuch of Dongchang and go home to retire.

He knew that it was another temptation from Wei Zhongxian.

"Pass on Wei Zhongxian."

Soon, Wei Zhongxian knelt in front of Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Youzhen didn't speak, just casually flipped through the folds on the table.

The emperor didn't speak, and Wei Zhongxian didn't dare to raise his head, so he knelt on the ground.

As time passed, Wei Zhongxian, who was in his sixties, sweated profusely, and sweat soaked the carpet along his forehead.

"Get up."

Zhu Youzhen looked at the "nine thousand years old" kneeling on the ground and said lightly.

Wei Zhongxian got up as if he had been amnestied, and he didn't dare to wipe the sweat on his face.

"Why did the factory minister submit his resignation?"

"Long live, the old slave is old, and he often feels powerless, so he submits his resignation, begging for mercy, and allowing the old slave to return to his hometown but survive."

"Before I ascended to the pole, the imperial brother told me that the factory ministers are of great use and can be trusted. But now that the royal brother has just been in the sky, you have to pick and choose. Are you worthy of the trust of the royal brother? Or do you think I'm not worth your service? ”

Zhu Youjian leaned forward and said coldly. But such words were like fairy sounds in Wei Zhongxian's ears, making him almost unable to hold back the ecstasy in his heart.

How cunning he couldn't understand the meaning of the emperor's words.

Hooray is planning to continue to use himself!

Long live this sixteen, no matter what, you can live longer than yourself.

This is stable.

Wei Zhongxian, who was happy in his heart, lay on the ground again, tears and snot gushing out together.

"Damn it, old slave! It's not that the old slave lives up to the trust of the emperor, and it's not that the old slave doesn't want to serve long live. Instead, someone in the outer court maliciously slandered the old slave, saying that the old slave excluded dissidents and arbitrarily dictated state affairs. The old slave had no choice but to beg for bones to return to his hometown in order to block everyone's mouth. ”

After speaking, he lay on the ground and cried.

Zhu Youzhen looked at Wei Zhongxian, who had a handful of snot and tears, and was very shocked.

! This old thing's acting skills are so fucking good!

This level will definitely win the Academy Awards every year in later generations.

Zhu Youzhen adjusted his mood and asked the eunuchs on the side to help Wei Zhongxian, who was too deep in the play.

When the factory minister said this, I was relieved. The matter of returning to his hometown for the elderly, I will mention it again in the future, and I will not approve it. ”

When Wei Zhongxian heard this, he knelt on the ground again and shouted:

"Thanks to long live and not give up, the old slave will not hesitate to be disabled, and dare not to die."

"Let's go down."

"The old slave retires!"

After saying that, he bowed and withdrew.

On September 3, the gossip nurse of the Apocalypse proposed to him to leave the palace, but he did not agree.

On September 4, Wang Tiqian, the eunuch in charge of the seal, proposed to return to his hometown, but he still did not agree.

Want to run?

Hehe~

On 5 September, Zhu Youzhen summoned several cabinet assistants.

First of all, he took a copy of the book of the household department and circulated it to everyone.

The main contents are as follows:

"The border army was paid 3278373 taels of silver, and the internal supply of officials, Beijing branches, Beijing management, rice folding cloth flowers, and the towns were rewarded with a total of 1235850 taels of silver, and four new towns of salt and vegetables were 226254 taels of silver. A total of 20 4740478 the silver. In addition to the salt vegetables in the four towns, they were all eliminated, and the rice was reduced by two months, which was converted into 240,000 taels of silver, and the silver was 4274223 taels. Compared with what is in and out, there is more than two taels of silver 1274220. ”

After reading it, everyone looked at each other speechlessly.

Isn't there just no money, what does it have to do with us?

But then Zhu Youzhen said something that shocked them.

"When I first ascended to the pole, it stands to reason that the food and salary of the border army should be supplemented. But at present, the treasury is empty, and the internal funds are not enough to make ends meet. I want the cabinet to ask the cabinet to borrow some silver taels from the ministers of the outer court and the nobles, and then return them to the ministers after the collection of various taxes is completed in the coming year. What do you think? ”

Several people stared blankly at the young emperor.

Why is it so brazen at such a young age?

Since ancient times, how has an emperor borrowed money from his courtiers?

Say you don't have any money, right? There really is.

If you want to borrow, right? I really don't want to.

What's more, how to explain the source of the money?

But if you don't borrow it, how can you refuse it?

Zhu Youzhen looked at the most powerful people in front of him except himself with a longing expression.

See who of them is the first to perform.

Sure enough, Shoufu Huang Liji lived up to expectations and was the first to speak.

"Your Majesty, the ministers thought that this matter should not be so hasty, and not long after His Majesty ascended to the throne, he raised funds and paid the ministers of the outer court. It's not very conforming. Besides, the ministers are honest and honest, and their income is very small, and it is not easy to maintain daily expenses, so where is there any surplus money for His Majesty to raise. ”

After Huang Liji finished speaking, Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu responded one after another.

"Your Majesty, we don't have any money."

"Yes, Your Majesty, it's not easy for me to live in the capital, how can I have money."

"Your Majesty, the minister hasn't eaten meat for half a month."

Seeing that it was about to become a poverty fighting conference, Zhu Youzhen hurriedly spoke out to stop several people from crying.

"Don't worry, a few elders, that's what I think. Tomorrow morning, a few cabinet elders will take the lead in donating a part, and return the full amount afterwards. Presumably, with the appeal of a few people, the more than one million taels of silver owed to raise the border salary are just around the corner. ”

When they heard this, they fell silent.

This business seems to be capable?

Gained fame and did not lose it.

But the problem is that it is not possible to donate too much, and it is not possible to have a huge amount of property from an unknown source.

In the evening, the news of the emperor's intention to borrow money from his ministers and relatives spread throughout the capital.

The first reaction of the person who heard the news was surprise, and then he ordered the family to hide all the valuable things.

I didn't go to the restaurant either.

and those who have feasts at home are not open.

Even the brothel business is much quieter than it used to be.

For a while, the usual bright nightlife became depressed.

September 6, Taihe Gate.

When it is not enough.

Those who had come to the court were already waiting outside the noon gate.

The ministers gathered in groups to discuss the emperor's borrowing of money.

Some of the words were implicitly mocking, some were indignant, some were regretful, and so on.

Until after the three-way drum sounded, the civil and military officials entered the palace from the left and right doors in turn. After the ritual of one bow and three prostrations, the early dynasty began.

Zhu Youzhen, who was sitting on the throne, looked sullen.

The emperor's job is really not good, he got up before four o'clock, and the anger of getting up has not disappeared at this time.

After completing a set of tedious processes, we moved on to the theme of the early dynasty: the performance of political affairs.

The ministers, who used to like to talk crookedly about big and small things, are now silent.

One by one, they hugged their own Chao Wat and bowed their heads and were silent.

Zhu Youzhen stopped his gaze on Shoufu Huang Liji, and when Huang Liji saw this, he also knew that he couldn't hide, so he stepped out of class.

"The minister heard that His Majesty wants to raise funds and pay salaries, and he is willing to offer twenty taels of silver to help His Majesty."

Twenty taels?!

Zhu Youzhen was stunned for a moment!

He expected some people to be shameless, but he didn't expect them to be so shameless.

Twenty taels!

What the hell are you going to beg for food?

The next scene made Zhu Youzhen, who was already unhappy, even more annoyed.

I saw one official after another, taking turns to go out of class and play loudly.

"The minister is willing to offer fifteen taels of silver."

"The minister is willing to offer twelve taels of silver."

"Willing to ......"

When Zhu Youzhen heard the end, his face was already gloomy and about to drip water.

In the end, I couldn't help it, got up and brushed my sleeves away.

After Wang Chaoen shouted "retreat from the dynasty", he hurriedly followed.

And then the court was filled with a joyful and strange atmosphere.

Zhu Youzhen returned to the Qianqing Palace and sat down angrily.

The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and I grabbed the teacup in front of me and was about to throw it to the ground, but after thinking about it, I held back.

You shouldn't have any illusions about these fools.

"The King's companion."

"The slave is here."

"You go and help me do something, remember, you can't leak the news."

"Yes!"
