288. Courtiers sell women

Ji Gao did not leave Chaoge, he wanted to lay the groundwork for Chaohe, who was about to enter Chaoge, and he must find a way to rescue his father back to Xiqi.

Although he couldn't bury his eyes in the Xuanyao Guard, and he didn't make the King of Xuan infamous through the nobility, at least, his identity was not exposed.

And from the matter between Xuanniaowei and the Ji family, he has found a breakthrough.

In Ji Gao's view, the new official has a high salary and good treatment, but the old minister has reduced the salary, which must be a problem with the palace's finances.

If you think about it carefully, the King of Zhou is building the Great Wall again, building roads, and also repairing the Star Picking Tower and the Wine Pond Meat Forest, and now there are six government halls under construction, so there should have been no money for a long time.

You can only save money by cutting the old ministers.

And everyone knows the respect of the king for the ancestors, even if he does not sacrifice to the gods, he still worships the ancestors, but the king of the emperor melted the bronze of the first king to cast money and cast blades.

Isn't this because there is really no way?

Because there really is no money in the palace!

The king continued to shoot at the nobles, and even let the nobles do business and obtain a lot of money, most of which were also for the benefit of it, and the richest at this time were the nobles.

Ji Gao couldn't help but feel a little proud, so that he could start from among the old ministers.

For the sake of the ministers' bodies, the king asked the ministers to rest, especially those high-ranking and powerful courtiers, and the retreat was for several months.

Ji Gao also had to admit that the benevolence of the king of Xuan could do this for his courtiers, but this was the beginning of the collapse of the society.

In the past, most of the courtiers were conscientious people who were dedicated to the country and the people.

But is there really not a single courtier with two hearts?

Not really.

At least among the information that Ji Gao has, there is an old minister who is dissatisfied.

Moreover, San Yisheng and Hong Yao are still officials in the court.

It's all a place to plan.

In the past, there were important ministers who suppressed it, Wen Zhong who was jealous and hateful, and courtiers who had two hearts did not dare to speak out.

But the important ministers are resting, and Wen Zhong is far away from the court, and these people will naturally jump out.

...........

"Master Zeng, didn't you say that you should talk about it? Why are you angry? Sit down and sit down. ”

A young man who was somewhat similar to Ji Gao said in front of an official in court clothes.

Ji Gao did not come forward in person, it was his younger brother, Ji Shuang.

Anyway, there are many brothers.

Ji Shuang's ostensible identity is a dilapidated aristocrat who came to Chaoge to do business and revitalize his family while the nobles of Chaoge were doing business.

This identity is very reasonable, Ji Shuang is very confident, even if Xuanniaowei wants to investigate, it will take a month, and when the princes end their court, they will have already followed the Xiqi people home.

As for Lord Zeng, his name is Zeng Bing, who was a disgruntled minister contacted by Ji Shuang under Ji Gao's guidance earlier.

There is no suppression by heavy ministers, and the Yulu is low, and in the Wending period, because Wending killed Ji Li for nothing, he made trouble, and there is a black history.

Now the king also killed the head of the Ji family for trumped-up crimes, which made Zeng Bing even more cowardly, and the two hit it off, and there was today's play.

"Don't you think you have enough money?!

Ji Shuang took out the consistent money that had been skewered: "How about three hundred guan?"

Zeng Bingli said: "What are you kidding, I won't sell my daughter!"

"Five hundred?"

Zeng Bing's hand clenched into a fist.

For a time, it attracted countless onlookers.

As early as the beginning, many people came forward, after all, an old man in court clothes, and a little girl of seven or eight years old stood in the downtown area, no matter how you look at it, it is a little unusual.

Now when I heard the conversation between Ji Shuang and Zeng Bing, I understood that I was going to sell my daughter!

Selling daughters is not uncommon among the people.

However, it was the first time that the minister sold his daughter.

Ji Shuang looked at the more and more people who ate melons, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, this is what he wanted.

He took out a piece of paper from his arms: "This is the money ticket of the money bank, a thousand yuan, Lord Zeng, you should know how to redeem it, right?"

Zhao Gongming naturally kept pace with the times after the appearance of Biji paper, and Qian Zhuang was originally for the convenience of people, and paper was obviously lighter than wood chips.

"How's that? Ji Shuang pressed step by step, and the onlookers were in an uproar, a little girl was sold for a thousand?

"One thousand...."Zeng Bing gritted his teeth and acted in a full set: "Let me tell you, if it weren't for the imperial court's cut, I would never sell my daughter!"

"Be kind to my daughter!"

At this time, the little girl next to him didn't know what was going on.

Zeng Bing said a few words in the ear of the youngest daughter, and the youngest daughter nodded timidly.

Immediately, Zeng Bing cried and said sadly: "Faint king! Faint monarch! I have been an honest official all my life, but I have cut my salary, and I have to sell my daughter!

"I see!"

"There are so few court officials?"

"No, I've heard that Xuanniao Wei Yulu is quite tall. ”

"I heard that the old minister's salary is different from that of the new official, and the king should have reduced the old minister's income, so that Lord Zeng sold his daughter for wealth. ”

"Poor man, there are government dignitaries to deal with, and I have to sell women to maintain food and clothing..."

Zeng Bing's acting skills are a little exaggerated, but they are not important, as long as the people believe it.

And it is a fact that the imperial court reduced the old minister's Yulu, as long as you inquire a little, you can know that there is less Yulu, and you have to sell your daughter to subsidize the family, and the logic is very smooth.

"Lord Zeng, what are you doing? Are you really going to sell your daughter?"

The third year of high school hurriedly came, this women's federation had just been set up, and before it began to protect women's rights and interests, there were people selling women on the street?

Zeng Bing saw that it was the third year of high school, he squinted slightly, the woman was an official, he didn't think there was any problem, but the problem was that Yu Lu was taller than him in the third year of high school, what was the matter?

"Lord Gao, if you don't do this, you will send me a fortune?"

In the third year of high school, she was really speechless, just like when she was a child, if she didn't leave home, who would give the family an extra bite to eat?

It is true that women do not have any means to subsidize their families.

Ji Shuang knows the third year of high school, this woman who looks a little dirty, is quite famous today.

He was very disdainful, the more the king did it, the more ridiculous it became, and he even wanted to improve the status of women, what can a mere woman do? Listen to the woman's words, this is a faint king!

The sale of women by court officials is not only to discredit the court, but also to boycott the Women's Federation, killing two birds with one stone.

Ji Shuang asked a passer-by in front of the third year of high school: "Do you have a daughter at home?"

The passer-by stiffened his neck and said stiffly: "Yes, but I don't sell it!"

Ji Shuang took out another piece of paper from his arms: "It's also a thousand times, do you want to sell it?"

When a thin piece of paper was really placed in front of passers-by, the temptation of a thousand times made the hardness just now disappear in an instant.

Passers-by were silent.

The senior was also silent.

"How's it going? ”

Ji Shuang turned to look at Zeng Bing.

Zeng Bing nodded.

Ji Shuang turned around, stretched out his hands and said to the onlookers: "You can see it clearly, and please help me testify, Lord Zeng sold his daughter to me for a thousand yuan." ”

The crowd pointed and pointed, but didn't feel that there was anything wrong, which was normal, and it would be even more normal if Zeng Bing was replaced by an ordinary person.

The senior stopped him and wanted to terminate the deal.

Ji Shuang patted his sleeve: "What are you doing? This is a serious business, you are willing to do it, you are Your Majesty, and it is also a matter of course." ”

"You...."

It is indeed such a reason, Gao San was speechless, and could only put down his words: "Lord Zeng, you wait, I will present it to Your Majesty, if there is a problem at home, why don't you say it? Your Majesty is an enlightened king, if the courtiers need money, they will definitely help, under the reform of the six ministries, some omissions are normal, so why sell your sons and daughters?"

Zeng Bing sneered in his heart, he was already iron-clad to go to Xiqi.

The update is late.,Volunteers have been really busy late.,It's said that the turning point is on the 20th.,I hope I'll be able to break down by then.,It's almost time to open the gods.
