Chapter 268 Co-management (2nd Update)
After listening to the emperor's words, Yan Huisheng also understood what the emperor meant.
His good father, the eldest brother and second brother who have supported him all these years, the silver in the household department has been almost emptied, he didn't know the existence of Su Rong before, and second, he was not prepared to fight with the Great Wei at all, so he spent money like flowing water, and the money bags of the treasury kept flowing out, either to the Nanping Marquis Mansion, or to the Pingxi General's Mansion.
Now that he learned of Su Rong's existence, and because of the night return to the snow, he brought the royal order of the king of Southern Chu, under the two phases, Daliang had to prepare for the army, so that the military salary needed a large amount of expenditure from the treasury, and he was caught off guard at once.
The household could not come up with the money, so his good father came to him.
Yan echoed and looked at the emperor, "What does my father mean when he called his son?"
The emperor also looked at him, "Feng Chang is here, I have already asked him, the deposit of the household department is not enough to support the war. But from the king of Southern Chu, it can be seen from the attitude of returning to the snow at night to bring the king's life that the king of Southern Chu has a resolute attitude and wants to truly recognize Su Rong. So, I would like to ask for your opinion, how do you say this matter should be resolved?"
Yan Echo turned to the head of the household, "Lord Feng, how much silver is left in the treasury?"
Feng Chang trembled and stretched out a finger, "Back to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there are less than ten million taels."
The huge Liang treasury has less than 10 million taels of silver, which is a big joke. An ordinary rich businessman may be able to come up with a million taels.
Yan Echo stared at Feng Chang, Feng Chang couldn't wait to lower his head into the crack in the ground, Yan Echo turned back in silence and looked at the emperor silently.
The emperor finally recovered a little bit of his complexion, and under Yan Hui's silent comments, he was also a little embarrassed, but he, the emperor, still had to maintain the dignity and prestige that the emperor should have in front of his son, so he could only tense his face.
Yan Huisheng didn't say anything, and after silently glancing at the emperor, he retracted his gaze and said, "I'm tired of Lord Feng to check, over the years, where has the silver in the treasury flowed except for disaster relief."
Feng Chang knows best where he is going, His Majesty also knows it, and he believes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also knows it, but since it is clear, and he still says this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have good intentions, he said cautiously: "Where the flow goes, you can't come back."
Yan replied: "If you use a large amount of money from the national treasury, you must always make corresponding contributions or achievements to the national treasury. Furthermore, there is plenty of food for soldiers and horses, and if the country needs it, it should be the first to do so."
Feng Chang shouted in his heart, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince meant to tell His Majesty that the Yue family of the eldest prince and the second prince had taken the silver, so don't do practical things. In addition, he didn't have anything to do, just looking for his son, and he should also find out the two people who were supported by him and figure out a way together.
He secretly raised his eyes and looked at the emperor.
The emperor was naturally not a fool, and he also understood what Yan echo meant, he nodded with a stiff face, "What the prince said is right, Feng Aiqing, you go and check, and after you find out, report it to me."
Feng Chang should be.
The emperor replied to Yan again, "Even so, I'm afraid it can only solve a temporary urgent need, not a long-term solution."
Yan Echo naturally knew, and said again, "Father, let's clean up the situation!"
The Emperor frowned, "What kind of purge?"
Yan Hui suggested, "After the investigation of several major cases in the hands of King Ryan is revealed, I hope that my father will not be merciful. If you have such financial resources and ability to raise a rebellion among the dead in Beijing, you will be able to cover half of the treasury if you raid your home once."
The Emperor sat up straight.
Yan echoed and looked at the emperor, "Father, in the later years of the emperor, he was ruined by his soft-heartedness, corrupt officials and corrupt officials were rampant, and the wind of corruption corrupted the dynasty.
The emperor heard him say that he was in his prime, these four words suddenly smashed on his heart, what he was most afraid of was that he was getting old, and his son was growing stronger and stronger day by day, waiting to take his place, which was not a pleasant thing to think about, and it was also the place that made him hate Yan Echo the most in recent years. But now, when he stands in front of him and says that he is in the prime of life, does that also mean that he has the potential to mean your time, Father, Emperor?
It's still long, and there is really no need to be so defensive and jealous of his son like an enemy?
The Emperor examined Yan Echo.
Yan Echo's gaze was flat, and he looked at the emperor.
There was a silent air flow between father and son.
After a long time, the emperor loosened his tense skin and said to Yan, "You are right."
Before the emperor died, he issued an edict against himself, called him to the bed, and told him not to follow in his footsteps. But for so many years, he has forgotten the dying words of the emperor, and forgotten the predicament of the Great Liang who was in danger of overthrowing the country.
The emperor's breathing was a little heavier, he slowly stood up, and patted Yan Echo on the shoulder, "I will urge King Ruian to handle the case as soon as possible, from now on, you will assist in the management of the household department!" It is imperative that the household is replenished as soon as possible."
Yan echoed his head, "Erchen obeys the order."
Over the years, the emperor has put the household department to death, and he will reject all the invitations to the East Palace and the Protector Mansion, and he will be generous to others, and now the treasury is empty, and he finally let the household department out.
After exiting the Mingde Palace, Yan Echo did not feel too relaxed, but felt a little heavy.
Feng Chang caught up with Yan Echo and cautiously, "His Royal Highness the Prince, there is plenty of households, is there any other way?"
Yan echoed and glanced at him, "Isn't this what Lord Feng should be thinking?"
Feng Chang choked.
Yan Echo walked forward slowly.
Feng Chang also tended to keep up, he felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was now his lifeline, His Majesty did not let him resign from the old man, and he was afraid that he would be very worried about money for a long time in the future.
Walking out of the palace gate and getting into the carriage, Yan Huisheng finally turned around and gave Feng Chang a word, "Lord Feng should go to my eldest brother and second brother more recently, it is useless for you to follow Lone."
Dropping this sentence, Yan Echo got into the carriage.
Feng Chang's heart collapsed, seeing Yan Echo's carriage leaving, he thought with a headache, His Royal Highness and Second Highness are ambitious, don't look at the ease of asking for silver from the treasury, but if they are asked to take out the silver from their pockets, I am afraid that they will not be willing to live or die. Where can he dig it out?
But when he thought about it again, he couldn't take it out, and His Majesty, and suddenly felt a little relieved.
The emperor's movements today naturally can't be hidden, in the morning he saw Ye Guixue, the old protector of the country, and later summoned Feng Chang, the head of the household, and then called Yan Huisheng into the palace.
The eldest prince Yanli and the second prince Yanlin were quite unable to sit still, and they invariably sent people to find out what the emperor had said to these people, and after a long time, except for a waiting father-in-law Yu, the rest of the people in the Mingde Hall were sent away, and they couldn't find out at all.
And Yu An, no one wants to pry something out of his mouth.
Yan Lin found Yan Li, "Big brother, we can't just be kept in the dark."
Yan Li glanced at Yan Lin, "Then what is your way to know?" You're going to pry Yu An's mouth open?"
If Yan Lin could pry Yu An's mouth open, how could he scratch his ears and cheeks here? He looked at Yan Li, "Big brother, you stopped the night and returned to the snow today, what is the matter?"
Speaking of Ye Guixue, Yan Li's face turned blue, "I don't know what is good, I asked him to join forces with us to deal with Zhou Gu and Donggong, but he didn't agree."
Yan Lin suddenly, "He doesn't want to offend Su Rong, of course he won't agree, big brother, what you did is too obvious, you should look for him secretly, maybe he will agree."
Yan Li looked stunned, recalled Ye Guixue's expression, and shook his head, "I may not agree, Nan Chu is not the only one who can cooperate. Wouldn't the Nangong family be a good helper? I don't believe it, the Nangong family is happy to watch the night return to Xue and take Su Rong back to Nanchu smoothly."
Yan Lin immediately said, "Big brother is right, then you should contact the Nangong family quickly."
Yan Li snorted and looked at him, "What about you? Let me rush to the front in everything, second brother, you have a good calculation."
Yan Lin suddenly stopped, "What did the eldest brother say? The second brother is naturally with you in everything."
Yan Li stared at him, "This is what you said, if you don't bring down the prince, you and I will always be in the same boat." If only you understood."
Yan Lin nodded, "I don't need to say it, I understand, too."
The Son is the one we all want to get rid of. Big brother, don't worry!"
