"Meet Mrs. Tai."

"Meet the prince and the mother."

"Meet the county lord."

After Xia Shouzhong left, the maids and maids in the house, as well as the servants, knelt on the ground happily one by one.

Wu Xin is usually very arrogant, but at this time he is a little at a loss.

Princess?

Although I had been prepared for a long time, after becoming the county lord... I don't feel anything.

I used to be excited when I thought about it, but now it seems that there is not much joy.

By Wu Xin's side, Xiangling smiled, and her eyes were full of joy.

From today onwards, she has become a maid from the side of the eldest girl in the palace to the personal maid of the county lord.

The status has been improved.

Wu Fa noticed Xiangling at this time, almost instinctively, subconsciously, every time he ignored this girl. Moreover, Wu Xin is also very rare, and will take Xiangling by his side.

This maid is also eleven or twelve years old?

Anyway, it's not very old.

Well, Lao Wu didn't think much about it, this is the maid next to his sister, and he will marry with his sister in the future, and he will become a maid for dowry, or even a maid in the room.

Phew, our old Wu himself is not that kind of dirty person.

"Get up."

Cai had a faint smile on his face, and he was going to be rewarded at this time.

Reward, that's what the princess has to do.

When he looked at his daughter-in-law, Cai Shi noticed that his daughter-in-law had a flush on her cheeks.

As a person who has come over, Cai knows very well that this is the trace left after the spring breeze blows.

But... Supported by the jewel of the pearl...

False like this?

Qin Keqing's face was even redder, she was a little weak, and her strength to speak was lacking. Baozhu said loudly: "The county lord has a reward, and each person will be rewarded with two hanging money." ”

When Wu Fa was crowned king before, Qin Keqing was only rewarded with a penny.

Now, Wu Xin canonized the county lord, but instead rewarded two pieces of money.

Wu Fa blinked, understanding his wife's intentions. This is to raise the specifications of the county lord and give the girl a higher prestige.

Such a casual small gesture can be seen that the wife manages the whole house, controls people's hearts, and is clever in handling things.

Wu Xin was a little distressed.

Up and down the house, nearly two hundred maids and servants were two taels of silver per person, which was nearly four thousand taels: "Brother, should we set up a banquet?" ”

When the feast is set up, people will come to celebrate.

When someone comes to celebrate, they send a congratulatory gift.

In this way, the loss of the silver that my sister-in-law gave me can be compensated.

Thinking that someone came to celebrate, Wu Xin's eyes lit up, and his face was full of anticipation.

"You're thinking too much."

Wu Fa knows his sister very well, what is he thinking at this time.

ruthlessly shattered her illusions: "There is no banquet for women's canonization, and Enrong has no guests." ”

What does this sentence mean, Wu Fa is not particularly clear, Wu Fa can understand the literal meaning, a woman canonization does not need to set up a banquet, like when he was crowned king, set down a banquet, and the whole city came to congratulate.

is like the eldest girl of the Rongguo Mansion as a concubine, and the Jia family only entered the palace to thank her, and did not set up a banquet.

"Can't you set up a feast?"

Wu Xin felt that this county lord couldn't collect money, and it didn't make any sense.

Entering the back house, as soon as he helped Qin Keqing to sit down and rest, a mother-in-law came to report: "Lord, Niangniang, the princess of Beijing County, come to congratulate the county lord on his canonization..."

Well?

Is there really anyone coming to celebrate?

Qin Keqing pursed her lips, glanced at her husband, and suddenly realized.

This is someone who wants to please his husband, and it seems that there should be many people who come to celebrate: "I'll take the eldest girl to receive a distinguished guest." ”

Wu Fa was a little reluctant, his wife is now like this...

It's just that when a distinguished guest comes, the princess of the delicate wife does not go to receive her, with the temperament of her sister... Wu Fa frowned: "Baozhu Ruizhu, take care of the princess." ”

......

"Your Majesty."

Xia Shouzhong came back and handed over the order: "The old slave is back." ”

"Hmm."

Emperor Qingyuan nodded lightly, now he is very busy, and there are constant excerpts in various places, especially after the commercial tax reform. The land south of the Yangtze River is full of complaints, and the Jiangnan with the most businessmen and wealthy families in the world, there are many complaints from the businessmen and wealthy families.

Some local officials did not cooperate very much in administering the government.

Let's make trouble, make trouble.

I'm afraid you won't jump out.

After jumping out, it is clear who is loyal and who is traitorous.

However, local officials wanted the imperial court to withdraw the new commercial tax policy, saying that agriculture was fundamental, and that commercial taxes should not be levied, but agricultural taxes should be reduced.

How much tax do farmers have to collect to enrich the treasury?

It has been more than ten years, and since Emperor Qingyuan ascended the throne, the treasury has never been abundant.

Thinking of the treasury, Emperor Qingyuan thought that many nobles still owed the treasury silver, some hundreds of thousands of taels, and as few as thousands of taels.

In order to live a luxurious life, these nobles have to borrow money from the treasury to survive?

It's time for them to pay off the arrears of the treasury and plan the world.

They don't have any money? Emperor Qingyuan didn't believe it: "Can the king of Beiping County be in the mansion?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty."

Xia Shouzhong hurriedly replied: "The prince of Beiping is in the house, and the princess of Beiping seems to be very weak, maybe it is because the prince of Beiping is in the house." ”

"What?"

With a slap in his hand, Emperor Qingyuan frowned.

"Tell me about it."

Emperor Qingyuan's mood suddenly became a little dull, and the identity of the princess of Beiping County was different.

Xia Shouzhong also knew this, and hurriedly described it carefully.

As soon as he looked up, he saw that the emperor's face was a little strange.

"!"

Emperor Qingyuan was a little embarrassed between his eyebrows: "Get out, you eunuch." ”

Xia Shouzhong withdrew from the imperial study in a daze, and Emperor Qingyuan scolded softly: "This bastard must have a tonic recipe in his hand." ”

The body seems to be very weak, and the cheeks are slightly red... All kinds of descriptions, this is a spring breeze.

He is the imperial uncle of the princess of Beiping County, how can he listen to such a thing?

"Hmph..."

Emperor Qingyuan was in no mood to review the chapter: "Xia Shouzhong, this eunuch, has been a eunuch since he can remember, how can he understand this kind of thing?" Xia Shouzhong..."

Xia Shouzhong had just gone out and walked in again.

Emperor Qingyuan thought about it, recently his back and legs were weak, and the tonic prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor in the palace did not change the condition of his body weakness: "You go to the palace of Beiping County, go to the king of Beiping County, and ask for a nourishing prescription..."

A nourishing recipe?

Xia Shouzhong left in a daze, Emperor Qingyuan stretched his waist and continued to review the folds: "Come back, you go to the palace of Beiping County and summon the king of Beiping County into the imperial study." ”

Xia Shouzhong nodded blankly, and after leaving, Wu Fa was full of depression, a little confused, a little puzzled, and even a little resistant to come to the imperial study: "Meet Your Majesty." ”

Qin Keqing's body was very weak, and Wu Fa was very worried.

Therefore, it was still very unhappy to be summoned to the palace by the emperor.

What did the emperor do with him?

"Get up."

Emperor Qingyuan picked up an excerpt and handed it to Wu Fa: "You take a look first." ”

Wu Fa took the fold, looked at it hurriedly, and then approached the imperial case: "Your Majesty, what do you pronounce this word?" ”

Wu Fa, who was born in nine-year compulsory education, has never been exposed to traditional Chinese characters, and he can know most of them, and he is already guessing. This excerpt uses a lot of rare words.

Wu Fa really doesn't know him.

This reckless man!

The corners of Emperor Qingyuan's mouth twitched, this was his mistake: "Let me tell you, on the southeast coast, a huge ship has approached recently, and a local merchant ship called England wants to enter the pilgrimage to meet you." ”

Yes, the barbarians don't know how to be polite, and they say that they are visiting, and they should be in courtesy.

Emperor Qingyuan didn't care about these words, he wanted to listen to Wu Fa's opinion, Wu Fa had said before that the Western barbarians, after what industrial revolution, are now developing rapidly.

Moreover, the whole world has begun to plunder.

Now, the Western barbarians, have come.

"Oh?"

Wu Fa's eyes lit up, he had never had a chance to understand the outside world, this was an opportunity: "Your Majesty, let them come, this may be an opportunity." ”

Emperor Qingyuan frowned: "What opportunity?" ”

"Your Majesty, only a strong country can enrich the people, and now we need to change, which is the key to the change of the pattern that has not been seen for a thousand years."

Wu Fa thought for a while: "Wait for them to arrive, Your Majesty may know." ”

After thinking about it, as an emperor, how can he be afraid of barbarians?

Emperor Qingyuan made a note on the excerpt: "The land south of the Yangtze River, now because of commercial taxes, there are many complaints, what good way do you have?" ”

"Hey, hey."

To deal with this kind of person, our old Wu has a way.

Wu Fa sneered: "Let's make trouble first, it's really not good, send a large army to Jinling to sit in town." As long as Jinling is stable, Jiangnan can be determined. ”

Emperor Qingyuan fell into deep thought.

To send a large army, you must also have a commander with high prestige: "In this way, when the Jiangnan changes, you can lead the army to Jinling to take the town." ”

"Gah?"

Wu Fa opened his mouth wide: "Your Majesty, why is it a minister, the minister has just returned from the northern expedition, and he hasn't warmed up his chair at home." ”

He had just returned from a northern expedition, how could he leave home again?

"I heard, you have a prescription for a tonic decoction?"

Emperor Qingyuan didn't give Wu Fa a chance at all, and asked the most fundamental question about summoning Wu Fa today.

"What's that?"

Wu Fa was a little dazed: "What decoction prescription?" ”

Intentionally, isn't it?

Do you want this emperor, your imperial uncle, to explain?

"Lord Wang."

At this time, Xia Shouzhong reminded in a whisper beside him: "It is a prescription for aphrodisiac and kidney supplementation." ”

"What?"

Wu Fa's eyes widened and he looked at Emperor Qingyuan.

What the emperor meant...

Is he vain?

But...

Wu Fa shook his head: "The minister is talented, known as the ruler of Dajin, and he can't use this thing." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is distressed now, it's not good to be too powerful, where do you need this thing?"

Some people died, but not completely......
