Emperor Chongwen raised his eyebrows: "It is said that you and your eldest brother are brothers and sisters of the same father and mother, and the others are separated by one layer, why do you prefer the second brother, but not the eldest brother?" ”

Hearing this, Xi Hongrui sighed: "It's not that I don't want to favor him, it's really my eldest brother, I really don't have any ability, if I wasn't afraid that my eldest brother would blame me for being biased, I actually didn't really want to ask him for an official, no way, who let the roots of our family be like this." ”

"But my second brother is a different seedling, maybe because of his father, a bit of a businessman's cleverness."

"Although the world despises businessmen, I think that making money is also a skill, and since he has this ability, why not give him a businessman."

"On the one hand, it is convenient for him to act in the future, and on the other hand, I don't want everyone to see that my mother's family has a lord or not, so I ...... chew my tongue with this."

Emperor Chongwen suddenly realized: "You also have a mind, and I will definitely agree." ”

Raid Hongrui's eyes lit up instantly: "Really? ”

After being happy for a while, he suddenly thought of something, lowered his head, and whispered: "The emperor...... Do you think that the concubine thinks too much about her mother's family...... Insatiable ......"

"Haha." Emperor Chongwen smiled and patted her on the head, "How can it be, your mother's family is also my relatives, and if I have any good things, I should cling to them." ”

In fact, he was happier when he begged him generously.

This shows that the little girl really didn't treat him as an outsider, and she wanted everything she wanted.

is not like Concubine Shu, who wants to get an official for his mother's family, and has to test him around the corner.

Emperor Chongwen was in a happy mood, so he said to her: "If you have time, lead your two brothers to meet me." ”

Raid Hongrui jumped up happily: "Great! When do you want to summon them to the palace, Your Majesty? ”

Emperor Chongwen thought for a moment: "Why don't you let them meet you in the Yellow Mansion, I just want to meet your family, and you want to see them too." ”

When Xi Hongrui heard this, she pounced happily: "Really! That's great! ”

Emperor Chongwen laughed.

When they heard that the emperor was going to meet with everyone here, everyone immediately prepared to take over with trepidation.

Emperor Chongwen looked at them and said happily: "Don't kneel, it's all a family, everyone is the same as usual." ”

How dare the attacking family call themselves a family with the emperor, they smiled cautiously, and did not dare to exceed the rules in their every move.

Emperor Chongwen looked at one of the tall men with a broad face and a straight nose and said in surprise: "You are Concubine Chen's elder brother, called Ma ...... Horse what? ”

Ma Zeen hurriedly knelt down, and said resignedly: "Your Majesty, you give the villain a name, Ma Zeen......"

Emperor Chongwen laughed when he saw his straightforward appearance: "Okay, I think about it, get up." ”

He looked at the green willow on the side, and couldn't help but stroke his beard and nod with satisfaction: "This looks like Concubine Chen's brother." ”

When Xi Hongrui on the side heard this, he also laughed.

The appearance of the green willow was born well, but in the past, he always bowed his head and waist, and his face was full of flattery, which affected his temperament.

Now that he has been raised by wealth and nobility, he straightens his waist, and just looking at his appearance, he really adds a bit of the bearing of a splendid son.

However, a little bit of temperament, the temperament that had just accumulated dissipated in an instant, and he said in a loud voice: "Emperor Xie!" Thank you, Your Majesty! ”

Emperor Chongwen could only shake his head helplessly: "Oh, ......"

Looking closely, it was the two sisters of the raiding family, and they looked even more able to take it.

He sat down and smiled at the two of them: "Concubine Chen begs me to give you an official, then you can see what kind of official you want to be?" ”

Ma Zeen has been very uncomfortable these days when he is called Hou Ye, and when he heard about the official, he was even more frightened, kneeling on the ground, and did not dare to raise his head.

Although Lu Liu was also very nervous, when he heard about the official, he still raised his head and said with anticipation: "Thank you for the emperor's promotion!" The villain wants to sell salt, can you reward the villain with an official who can sell salt legally? ”

Emperor Chongwen raised his eyebrows, salt again?

There have been so many people vying for this position lately.

With the same expression, he asked, "Why do you want a salt officer?" ”

Lu Liu didn't notice Emperor Chongwen's subtle expression at all, and said excitedly: "Because the villain knows a subtle salt making method!" ”

Emperor Chongwen came and was interested: "What kind of salt making method?" ”

Xi Luliu hurriedly took out the prepared salt, and said with anticipation: "Your Majesty, please take a look." ”

Emperor Chongwen looked at the salt that was brought up, he didn't understand this, so he looked at Naruhito beside him.

Naruhito stepped forward and took a little, put it in his mouth, and immediately widened his eyes, and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, this salt is even finer and finer than the salt in the palace. ”

At this moment, even Emperor Chongwen knew what it meant, and said in a loud voice: "Okay! All right! ”

He looked at Lu Luliu in surprise: "You kid, how did you come up with this salt making method?" ”

Raid Luliu grinned and said: "It is a salt-making method that the villain learned in the private kitchen of Xiangfu, and the villain thinks that such a good method is used to eat too much material in his own kitchen, so the villain wants to try it, and make this salt in large quantities to sell, please allow it!" ”

He bowed his head heavily.

Emperor Chongwen: ......

He also thinks that this method of making salt is very useful in his own kitchen.

It's no wonder that Concubine Shu recently asked him for the position of Zuo Governor Salt Supervisor.

Hehe.

Raid Hongrui was on the side, but laughed silently.

How to say it, she thinks that in the end, the heroine should still compromise.

Then don't blame her, take the opportunity to give Lin Daxiang Ye some eye medicine.

Because no matter how you look at it, they don't look like they want to share a piece of the pie with the emperor.

It's too much to eat alone.

Chapter 45: It's Normal

There was still a smart, but not much, expression on his face.

Emperor Chongwen also smiled kindly.

But his heart was already filled with unspeakable rage.

Although he knew that his ministers could not really regard the king as a father as they said, they did not have any selfish motives.

But if you can't see it, it's worse than swallowing a fly.

Who can believe such an ingenious method of making salt, which is to keep it in your own kitchen and eat it yourself?

He learned it from the kitchen of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but it had been a long time since he left the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In other words, a long time ago, the Prime Minister mastered this method of making salt, which is more sophisticated than official salt.

As one of the largest financial revenues, salt and iron are private weapons that belong exclusively to the emperor and are completely controlled by the emperor.

Reform of the salt law, a sharp weapon that will make him more money, as long as he gives it away, it will definitely be in the salt business, and it is not too much to reward any official.

But when the order is reversed, it's not the same thing.

He is a great minister, and he obviously has a sharp weapon that will inevitably succeed, but he has to go through his sister's roundabout and go through the relationship, right?

yes, yes.

He Lin Daxiang, it doesn't seem that he has spilled the water from his married daughter as he said.

When you instruct your sister to marry, it's very handy.

Hehehe.

Piff!

Emperor Chongwen's heart was completely furious, and the surname of Lin was actually daring to calculate him like this behind his back!

Looking at the ground with a simple and even a little stupid face, Emperor Chongwen couldn't help but laugh.

He thought that his calculations were seamless, but he never thought that there would be such a shallow little guy who just wanted to make a lot of money, and shook his selfishness and unscrupulous in front of him, right?

Hahaha!

Emperor Chongwen smiled even more heartily, since it is so precious that recipe, let it become waste paper!

He bowed his head to the green willow and said, "Yes, yes, you have offered me such an exquisite method of making salt, and I will naturally reward you." ”

"The last Zuo Governor was trusted by me, but he was full of his own pockets, and he was ashamed of his grace, and I have ordered the officials to investigate thoroughly and confiscate him from his family."

"Now there is just such a vacancy, and when I finish clearing his crimes, you will take over."

Hearing "there is no clan in the house", Lu Liu was shocked, and only after a long time did he tremble and say: "Your Majesty...... The villain doesn't have that kind of ability, and he doesn't want to be an official, so he just needs to be a salt merchant from an official family......"

"Huh." Emperor Chongwen looked at him with a smile, "You have dedicated such a delicate salt-making method to me, of course it is natural to be an official, and your sister serves me in the palace, and you are also my family, how can I treat you badly?" ”

"The former salt supervisor not only confiscated a lot of greedy money, but also several very large-scale private salt farms, which were originally intended to be unofficial, but now I will reward you, which can be regarded as my dowry for your sister."

The eyes of everyone in the raiding family widened.

Xi Hongrui covered her mouth and looked at him in shock: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about, Yanchang, this ......?"

Emperor Chongwen looked at her with a smile, yes, it was the salt field.

Since ancient times, salt and iron have been run by the government, and the collusion between officials and businessmen to open salt farms is a major crime.

If you can't cover it, it will be a sure thing, and the capital crime of raiding your home and destroying your door is just like the previous salt commissioner.

Now, these blood-stained salt farms were easily rewarded to the raiders.

Emperor Chongwen could tolerate his subordinates to make some small moves, take some soup from his rice bowl and drink it, and fatten himself.

But he couldn't tolerate his subordinates, so he started a new stove behind his back, covered the pot, and ate alone!

As soon as he thought of Lin Yuyuan's intention, Emperor Chongwen was about to explode!

In this case, he wants everyone to see who is the owner of this pot!

Follow him, and you will be rewarded with meat.

But if you want to do something behind his back, the pot will be smashed for you!

Without hesitation, Emperor Chongwen rewarded the raiders with several private salt farms, allowing them to make salt, sell them, and allow them to eat the biggest piece of meat in an upright manner.

After all, the raider is a pug on him, and he wags his tail when he rewards every bone.
