Chapter 843: Threats and Extortion
After settling down, he pondered for a long time, and smiled, "Brother-in-law, this time I was able to save the day, it is indeed thanks to your Hongfu, I have decided to let you and Ping'er get married as soon as possible, in addition, I will reward 10,000 taels of gold, 50,000 taels of silver, 1,000 horses of silk, and 5,000 cattle and sheep." ”
After thinking about it, he seemed to feel a little childish, and added, "In addition, you and Ping'er have made a great contribution to Sheji, and I made an exception to give the two of you three thousand food." ”
The so-called food was originally given to the fiefs of the vassal kings in various places, but most of the emperors and princes of the Jin Kingdom did not have a fief, so Wan Yan Yan's mouth actually refers to the tribute, taxes, etc. of the subjects of a certain place, all of which are owned by Murong Fu, and the food of 3,000 refers to 3,000 households, which is not much different from the treatment of ordinary princes.
"Gone?" Murong Fu couldn't help but ask.
The corners of Wan Yan's mouth twitched slightly, "It's gone!"
Murong Fu secretly scolded "stingy" in his heart, he is not often in the Jin Kingdom, and it is difficult to say whether he is an enemy or a friend in the future, let alone three thousand food, even thirty thousand, he may not put it in his eyes, when it comes to the real reward, but it is only tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver, and a trace of displeasure immediately flashed on his face,
"Your Majesty, is this a little less, you also know, I am not from the Jin Kingdom, and I don't live here for a long time, if you give me food, it won't be of much use, it's better to exchange it for real money directly. ”
Wan Yan Yan's face turned dark, as the Ninety-Five Supreme, he usually doesn't talk about such a rich reward, just reward something casually, and the people below are all happy and grateful, only Murong Fu is picky and picky, and he says it so directly.
glared at him angrily and said, "When you and Ping'er get married, won't you be a golden person." ”
But seeing that Murong Fu's face was a little ugly, his tone softened slightly, "This food has nothing to do with whether you are in the Jin Kingdom or not, all the offerings will be sent to the princess's mansion every year, and after you and Ping'er get married, you will also move to Kyoto to live." ”
Murong Fu was noncommittal about this, and said bluntly, "The emperor is so detached, it is chilling, and the next time I encounter this situation, I am afraid that my brother-in-law may not be able to spare my hands to help." ”
Threat, Chi Guoguo's threat, and at the same time, he secretly snorted coldly in his heart, and next time, if this son doesn't slaughter you severely, he will have your surname.
Wan Yan Yan heard this, and at the same time he was annoyed, he couldn't help but feel a slight chill, according to Murong Fu's character, if he didn't do what he wanted this time, I'm afraid he would really do such a thing next time.
For a while, he was also in a dilemma, and the reason why he rewarded Murong Fu with food instead of real money and silver was mainly because he had the intention of leaving him in the Jin Kingdom completely.
Unexpectedly, Murong Fu didn't buy it at all, but if it was a reward of cash, with this kid's appetite, I am afraid it would not be a small amount, and now the treasury is empty, and the pension and reward after the war are a huge expense, and there is no extra money.
Thinking like this in his heart, Wan Yan's face gradually became gloomy, "Say, what do you want?"
Murong Fu's face turned cloudy in an instant, and he counted on his fingers, "This ...... I'll not count the carriage and horse fares or something,"
"However, in the battle of Hailing Palace, after annihilating more than 1,000 of Yan Liang's personal soldiers, plus disrupting the camp of the forbidden army, the forbidden army suffered countless casualties, and indirectly kept the emperor's dragon chair, which was worth at least five million taels of gold. ”
"What!" Wan Yan was startled and stood up with a swish, "Five million taels of gold, you can just kill me." ”
As soon as the words came out, Deng Jue felt that something was wrong, and his tone softened slightly, "You are still my brother-in-law, this is originally your business, but now you are bargaining with me, and the agreement made at the beginning is still not counted?"
Murong Fu's face was slightly stunned, but he didn't have much guilt in his heart, and as soon as his thoughts turned, he stretched out two fingers, "Two million, it can't be less." ”
In his heart, he thought, "This must be put on hold before the incident, and this son has to extort you from ten million taels of gold." ”
"Hmph!" Wan Yan Yan's expression was slightly cold, and he turned his head and said, "No!"
Murong Fu's eyes flashed slightly, with Yan Ling's timid temperament, he could talk to himself so strongly, most of them were really shy, and after muttering for a long time, he finally sighed, "That's it, for Ping'er's sake, one million taels of gold." ”
Immediately, without waiting for Yan Yan to speak, he preemptively added, "If there is no more, I really want to sell your dragon chair for money, this chair is worth one or two million taels of gold, to say the least." ”
Wan Yan Yan's heart jumped, the dragon chair is related to the majesty of the country, if he really let Murong Fu take it and sell it, how will he face the subjects of the world in the future, and the dragon chair moves lightly, this is a big inauspicious,
Gritting his teeth, he finally glared at Murong Fu fiercely, "You really see money, and you don't talk about friendship at all." ”
After hesitating, he looked embarrassed again, "It's just that now the treasury is empty, and I can't even make up the military salaries at the border gates, so I really can't get so much money, can I give it a period of grace." ”
Murong Fu also knows a little about the situation of the Jin State, since the opening of the capital of the Jin Kingdom, he has been arrogant and lascivious, greedy for pleasure, and the treasury has long been empty, and suddenly his heart moved, "I have an idea, I can help you enrich the treasury, but one million taels of gold, not a single cent." ”
Wan Yan's eyes lit up, "What's the way?"
Murong Fu smiled slightly, his figure jumped up suddenly, and landed in front of the dragon chair opposite the imperial table, with one hand on Wan Yan Ling's shoulder.
Wan Yan Yan's heart trembled, and he almost couldn't help shouting the word "escort", but fortunately, the kind smile on the other party's face made him stop the words on his lips and changed his words, "You...... Do you have any way to say quickly, don't hook up, what kind of system. ”
Murong Fu's face darkened, he took his hand back, wiped it on his sleeve again, sat directly on the dragon chair, and said leisurely, "We Han people have an old saying, in troubled times, you should use heavy codes. ”
A trace of confusion flashed in Wan Yan's eyes, he hadn't heard of this sentence, but what does this have to do with enriching the treasury?
Murong Fu also stopped selling Guan Zi and continued, "Didn't you take advantage of the chaos to kill many officials?"
Wan Yan was stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something, "What do you mean ......?"
"That's good!" Murong Fu nodded, "These people are all corrupt officials and corrupt officials, I don't know how many gold, silver and jewelry are hidden in the house, you can confiscate all of them, and they will be nationalized." ”
"But......" Wan Yan Yan showed a look of hesitation on his face, "Most of those dead officials have clan forces behind them, and they can't move easily." ”
Murong Fu glanced at him with disdain, "You have just put down Yan Liang's rebellion now, the whole army is up and down, only your orders are obeyed, no one dares to brush your tiger whiskers at this time, what are you afraid of, who dares to have a second word, uproot it, and then you can increase a sum of income." ”
"That's right!" Wan Yan couldn't help but clap his hands, feeling that what Murong Fu said made a lot of sense.
"Moreover, those who have different intentions towards you, as well as those who have a lot of money and have eaten away at the treasury in the past, you can also take this opportunity to beat them into a chaotic party......" Murong Fu followed the temptation.
"Reasonable, reasonable......" Wan Yan Yan muttered softly, a cold light crossed his eyes, as if he had thought of something.
Murong Fu smiled secretly in his heart, but his face was solemn, "But the emperor should not forget my one million taels of gold at that time, and directly order someone to send it to Jiangnan." ”
Wan Yan immediately came back to his senses, thinking of one million taels of gold, his heart trembled, but there was nothing he could do with Murong Fu, and he said helplessly, "You have no jokes, I won't break my promise, by the way, there is one more thing, what do you think Wan Yan Liang should do?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Murong Fu meaningfully.
When Murong Fu ascended, he realized, "What should I deal with?" Didn't Wan Yan Liang commit suicide because he felt ashamed of the emperor?"
Wan Yan was stunned for a moment, then understood, and there was a look of sudden realization on his face, "Look at my memory, alas, in fact, I still want to save his life, but he can't think about it himself, and there is no way to do it." ”
Murong Fu glanced at him faintly, and finally saw someone with thicker skin than himself, but it was an unexpected joy to be able to get a million taels of gold today, so Yan Liang would help him cook at no additional charge.
"Now that it is all done, I will take my leave. Murong Fu got up and said goodbye.
"Wait," Wan Yan groped around his waist for a while, took out a golden token, and said meaningfully, "This is a token for entering and exiting the palace anywhere, and you don't have to go high and high in and out of the palace in the future." ”
Murong Fu naturally knew what he meant, it was nothing more than to make it more convenient for him to go to the Heavenly Prison, and he wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he didn't need it, maybe he could give it to the people of the Crystal Palace to use, and immediately sucked it backhand, and the token automatically flew into his hand, and said without looking back, "Thank you." ”
Wan Yan looked at Murong Fu's back in a daze, until he disappeared, his face was cloudy, and he sighed slightly after a long time, "Although this kid is a little greedy for money, he has really helped a lot, if he can recover it completely, it will be perfect." ”
He can be said to be afraid and loving of Murong Fu, and while he is jealous, he can't wait to keep him by his side completely, which can be described as extremely complicated.
The location of the heavenly prison was not in the imperial city, and Murong Fu left the palace and asked a team of patrolling soldiers before finding its location.
When I came to the prison, as Wan Yan said, the surrounding was heavily guarded, and at the only entrance, there were nearly 3,000 ironclad soldiers standing, and it was difficult for a mosquito to fly in.
Murong Fu pinched the gold medal in his sleeve, if he didn't have this brand, he was afraid that it would not be easy for him to enter silently.
"Bold, the heavens are heavy, and the idlers are waiting to leave quickly. A cold voice suddenly sounded.
Murong came back to his senses, and couldn't help but light up, only to see a man and a woman standing in front of him, not to mention the man, the woman's melon seed face, sheared water eyes, red lips and bright teeth, beautiful and vulgar,
The whole body is wrapped in a layer of strict military uniform, showing the exquisite figure vividly, especially the pair of majestic on the chest, which is even more eye-catching.
Murong Fu is also counted as a woman, but the appearance of the woman in front of him is at least among the top three among the women he has seen, and it is she who speaks.
