Chapter 107: Hua Lan was warned by Old Lady Sheng!
Although Lao Zhao is now the emperor, he still hasn't forgotten his old job, and specially asked people to take the wheat he misses from Yuzhou, and come to farm when he is idle.
After finishing the performance, he felt tired, so Zhao Zongquan, who was wearing a dragon robe, had a yellow shirt tied to his arm, and was working hard to weed.
While working, he also said: "Zhong Xuan, you have done a good job recently, and the security in Beijing has improved a lot~"
"Official, I..." Yuan Wenshao was about to be modest, but he didn't finish speaking.
Zhao Zongquan turned his head when he heard this, and said with displeasure: "How many times have I said it, in the future, I will be the same in private as when I was in Yuzhou, and I can still call my uncle, so that it will be even closer~"
"Your Majesty, your wheat is about to be harvested, you can give me more when the time comes, Brother Shi and Sister Ning, their brothers and sisters, like to eat the grain you grow the most~"
"You have to get it, I can't control you anymore, for the sake of Brother Shi and Sister Ning, I will allow you to pick a pick, quickly help bring the bucket of water, if you want to eat, you can't get it without work!"
"Okay~" Yuan Wenshao carried the bucket and farted to the past.
Not everyone can help with the work, why didn't he dare to move just now, it was because Lao Zhao didn't like to be disturbed by others when he did farm work.
What else is there like "uncle", it's over when you listen to this, if you take it seriously, you'll lose, and the emperor's uncle won't die?
"Whew~" Zhao Zongquan was sweating, and finally put down the hoe and walked over, and then sat on the chair and gasped.
He sighed happily: "Comfortable, it's better to do some work and be comfortable, I've been anxious about being stirred up by the government all day long!" ”
Yuan Wenshao, who was standing on the side, was also very eye-catching, and when he saw this, he quickly pushed the little eunuch away and poured a cup of tea himself.
"Your Majesty, be careful of burning!"
"Hmm~"
After drinking the water, he put down the cup and joked meaningfully: "Zhong Xuan, you have achieved remarkable results during this time, but there are many people who sue you, saying that you are taking the opportunity to make money~"
"Your Majesty, this is too wronged for me, all the stolen money confiscated has not entered my mansion, and I am about to report this matter to you!"
"Those scoundrels who do evil are indeed a cancer in Bianjing, forcing Liang to abduct and sell children for prostitution, and also privately setting up casinos to put money in prints, which is simply a loss of conscience."
"The stolen money confiscated from them by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses alone has been as high as one million, and the minister doesn't know how to deal with this huge amount of money, so please make it clear to Your Majesty!"
Yuan Wenshao said that he bowed respectfully, and in his heart, who could sue himself, was nothing more than those who had been cut off from their wealth.
"Goo-dong!" Here, Zhao Zongquan swallowed his saliva, subconsciously stood up from the chair, and opened his mouth wide in surprise.
Although you are now the emperor and rich in the world, he was only a minor official in Yuzhou before, and the Shen family has a talent but can only have tens of thousands of yuan.
"How much do you say?"
"Millions?"
"Zhong Xuan, you're not kidding, are you?"
"The minister doesn't dare to deceive Your Majesty, a million guan is only a lot more, and now it's only an approximate number, those land shops have not been specifically liquidated, and it is estimated that it should be doubled again!"
"Whew~" This gave Lao Zhao Qi's face pale.
You must know that now he is the emperor, but it is not easy to spend some money, and no concubine dares to be extravagant if he wants to reward him.
It stands to reason that it shouldn't be so embarrassing, the royal roommate's "sealed pile library" is also called the inner library, which is more popular is the emperor's private money.
As early as when Grandpa Tai conquered the world, this "pile sealing warehouse" had been set up, and when the warlords from all walks of life were pacified, their private property would be stored separately.
Later, Taizong Ye also inherited this good tradition, and even took out the surplus of the country's finances every year and hid it in this "sealing pile warehouse" to facilitate his own expenses.
So since it is the emperor's private money, Lao Zhao should be able to use it, but who made him not the son of the old emperor.
Before Renzong died, it is estimated that his wife who was distressed by his affection for him, and deliberately handed over the control of the jade seal and underwear to the current queen mother.
This led to Zhao Zongquan being quite wealthy when he was in Yuzhou before, and now he has to raise such a large family, and he has to give his subordinates some rewards if he has nothing to do, and his life is not as good as before.
So as soon as I heard that the scoundrels could check out millions of dollars, I was so angry that I couldn't wait to pull all the people who complained over and beat them.
"Zhong Xuan, I think this money should be handed over to the treasury!"
Lao Zhao just said so, but his eyes were very honest, staring at Yuan Wenshao directly, which means that if you dare to agree directly, the two of us will not be finished.
I can't help it, I'm scared.
It is estimated that no one will believe it, who can imagine that the dignified Son of Heaven is supreme, and now it has reached the point of using his wife's dowry.
Yuan Wenshao tried to hold back, because he was afraid that he would laugh directly, and finally secretly pinched his thigh twice before he could hold back his laughter.
Said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it should be taken from the people, used for the people, and should not be directly handed over to the treasury!" ”
"Huh?" Zhao Zongquan didn't understand.
"What do you mean by that?"
"The minister has an immature idea, and I hope His Majesty will help prove it~"
"Tell me about it!"
"The minister thinks that this money should be in the hands of the queen, and then used to set up porridge sheds all over the capital, as well as nursing homes, orphanages, etc., so as to show the kindness of you and your mother!"
Yuan Wenshao's intention is actually obvious, he blatantly came to give gifts, and it is most taboo to eat alone whenever he wants.
This money is clearly said to be for charity, but in fact, it is placed in the queen's place, and the specific purpose is only known to Lao Zhao's family.
Lao Zhao was quite moved, but he still cared a little about his face.
"Oops, this... It's not good~"
"Your Majesty, you ......"
Yuan Wen Shaoxiao was moved by emotion and reason, and in the end it was very difficult to make sense.
turned his head to the court the next day, and deliberately played a double reed with Lao Zhao, and took the initiative to propose the use of the money.
This excuse is so lofty, and the princes of the court have no excuse to object, that is, the household department is not very satisfied, after all, it is a good windfall, so it grows wings and flies.
Yuan Wenshao was not without benefits, this did not take the reward of the queen's mother, and returned to his home happily.
Put the royal jade into the warehouse, and then find the boring Hualan in the back garden.
"Lady, you quickly change into a command uniform and enter the palace, your official has found you a good errand, and the province is bored at home all day long~"
"Huh?"
"Oh, the queen mother and Princess Huan summoned the women to discuss the establishment of an orphanage in Beijing and other matters, so that you can also go over and manage it together~"
"Really?" Hua Lan jumped three feet high.
She had nothing to do at home all day, and now she looked at everyone a little unpleasantly, causing the two children to take a detour in fear when they saw their mother.
Because Hua Lan is not like other noble ladies, she knows so many good friends, and she can usually play leaf cards for entertainment.
Even other big ladies in the house will fight with some pampered and arrogant little ladies, but the people of the Yongding Earl's Mansion are simple, and their husbands have a total of three little ladies, and they are very well-behaved all day long, so you are embarrassed to find fault.
So I usually chat with Lao Geng Xiaoduan and other family members at most, or go back to my parents' house, but when I think of my grandmother's admonition when I went home yesterday, I also feel reasonable.
"Hua'er, you are happy to come back to your mother's house, but Brother Shao is certainly considerate to you, but we can't be pampered and arrogant, you come back every day, it's easy for people to gossip when you spread it, even if you live in another house now, but you have to visit your in-laws from time to time!"
"I know Grandmother!"
Hua Lan didn't have Mo Lan's backbone, so he naturally agreed obediently, but he was bored all day long.
I am happy to be able to have something to do, and besides, going to the palace to see the queen is not a treatment that everyone can have......
