Chapter 6: I, Xiao Xian, Housekeeping!
In the afternoon, the study of the East Palace.
At this time, Gao Zongxian had already calmed down and was sitting at the table looking at the official documents.
The crown princess's face was flushed, and she was unusually moisturized with attendants.
As for Xiao Xian, he was wearing a eunuch suit, standing in the back and pouring tea and water in misery.
"And the state plague? They don't go to the doctor, but they have to nag in front of the king, what a bunch of rubbish. ”
"Empty treasury? Then tax it, and let the king make money for you? ”
"Ba County Tiger Plague, what do the local hunters do to eat, even a group of tigers can't handle it!"
"Beidi actually went south again! This bunch of brutes...... If it weren't for my father's refusal, this king would have killed you! ”
“……”
Xiao Xian's head was big for a while, and he could see that the prince in front of him was afraid that he was only interested in fighting.
As for governing the country, it can only be said that he has nine out of ten skills, and he doesn't know anything.
In my memory, the founding emperor of the Great Chu State was able to kill from all kinds of chaotic armies, and he was also a capable person. How can you tolerate such a foolish defect to be a prince?
However, the crown princess had a calm face and no expression, probably, she was used to it.
At this moment, there was a sudden cry from outside the hospital.
"Your Highness!"
"Come in."
With permission, a middle-aged scribe hurriedly walked in through the door.
Xiao Xian recognized that this was the head of the civil officials under Gao Zongxian, Mu Qingfeng, and he didn't know what was important when he came in a hurry.
"What's the matter?"
Although Gao Zongxian was not very interested in Wenchen, he couldn't help but worry when he saw Mu Qingfeng's appearance.
"This ......"
Mu Qingfeng looked at Xiao Xian with some confusion, as if he wanted to open his mouth.
Seeing this, Gaozong waved his hand, signaling that he had something to say.
Clinker, before he could speak, he heard Xiao Xian snort coldly:
"Blind your dog's eye! Our family is the head of internal affairs of His Royal Highness! ”
"What?"
Mu Qingfeng was shocked and looked at Gao Zongxian as if seeking verification.
At this time, Gao Zongxian's face was as black as carbon.
When the did you become housekeeping?
Ok, good, good!
Gao Zongxian gritted his teeth.
He kind of knew why Xiao Xian agreed to stay by his side so happily.
This is a fox and a fake tiger! What a Xiao Xian, you are really calculating!
Gao Zongxian pinched the official document, but finally endured it.
"Yes, this is the newly appointed head of internal affairs of this king, my own people, don't worry."
Although Mu Qingfeng felt a little strange, after confirming his identity, he still spoke:
"Your Highness, my Great Chu treasury is not full, and Beidi suddenly went south, and the saint is worried that it will change later, so he has already summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures."
"The minister was entrusted by the eunuch Wei to ask His Highness what his high opinion is, and I think this is also the meaning of the saint......"
"This ......"
Gao Zongxian gritted his teeth and asked him to lead the troops to fight Beidi. As long as his father's holy decree is given, he can immediately start the Northern Expedition.
But if you ask him about the national policy, it will be a black eye.
Could it be true that the father and emperor should increase taxes?
I'm afraid that then it will be another angry rebuke.
Thinking of this, Gao Zongxian smiled bitterly:
"Mu Aiqing, don't be idle, this king knows that you must have a way, right?"
Mu Qingfeng nodded, and the momentum of the literati immediately picked up:
"Don't hide it from Your Highness, the minister was summoned by His Majesty along with all the civil officials. The strategy has begun to take shape, as long as you make a slight modification, and the minister takes it back to report, you will definitely be able to get His Majesty's appreciation! ”
"Okay, good, Aiqing is really the blessing of this king! Come on! ”
Mu Qingfeng stroked his beard and said confidently: "This plan is a plan to change rice to mulberry!" ”
"Ordinary acres of rice are planted, and even in a good year, it will not exceed five taels of harvest. If you change to planting mulberry, even if it is an inferior field, the harvest will never be less than ten taels of silver! ”
"The minister suggested that His Highness should ask His Majesty to encourage officials to go to the countryside and guide the people to plant mulberry, so that the treasury could be replenished and the people could be rich. Your Highness, you ...... too."
"Poof!"
Just as Mu Qingfeng became more and more energetic as he spoke, and Gao Zongxian became more and more excited, an inopportune laugh suddenly sounded.
