Red Mansion Royal Cat

Chapter 156 Battle of Fengtian Palace

Shan Ziye has a very high level in the field of construction, how high is it?It is about as high as the Huangji Hall on Longshouyuan, because the Huangji Hall is run by the old man.

But Shan Ziye is also a strange person, he only likes to build, he doesn't understand the world, and after receiving the royal reward, he lives in seclusion in the mountains in the suburbs of Beijing.

As long as he is not unwilling, no matter how high you are, you can't ask him to come out of the mountain even if you coerce or lure him.He has a golden hammer bestowed by the emperor in his hand, and if he is in a hurry, he can't justify using the hammer...

"Second Uncle, have you ever heard of Shan Ziye?"

Jia Zheng shook his head and sighed: "Mr. Hu Lao Ming hasn't asked any questions for a long time, and he doesn't even give face to the prince's family. How could he come to our house?"

"There are regulations everywhere in the palace. In many places, the old man can't make his own decisions. My nephew went to the old man's house in person a few days ago and gave him the right to do things freely. Everything that is built is based on the old man's words, and he is free to do it!"

What does an artist need?money?He still has the title of royal enshrined on his body, eating the royal food!

Intimidate and lure him to obey?Hammer God find out!
Only freedom, allowing him to create great creations unconstrainedly, is Shan Ziye's biggest dream.

Every time Shan Ziye said a condition, Jia Cong just nodded.And he also chattered about Gothic architecture and Baroque architectural styles. Although the old man scoffed at the barbarian methods, he was still happy to have academic exchanges with the little fat man.

After talking nonsense about cats and tigers for a long time, Jia Cong finally lived up to his mission and took Shan Ziye into a trap. With two kinds of western architectural sketches as rewards, Shan Ziye accepted the job of Jia's relative's garden.

Jia Cong held up three fingers: "Second Uncle, at most 30 taels, our garden can overwhelm all the families of noble relatives in the capital, hammer god... Uh, Mr. Hu Laoming said it himself!"

30 million taels?

Jia Zheng shook his hand and almost dropped the teacup on the ground, his voice was trembling: "30? My God, Zhou Gui's family has already prepared 50 taels!"

Blinding relatives is not the filial piety mentioned in the imperial decree, and no one can tell what Ersheng has in mind.

But Jia Cong can see clearly that whoever dances the most fun and spends the most will die miserably at that time.

The Zhou family only has one nobleman, and they can spend 50 taels to build a garden.

Tsk tsk, Wen Tongxuan was almost forced to lie in the Qinzheng Palace by the empty treasury, why didn't your Zhou family pay back the money owed to the household department?

The Lai family was raided, and Jia Cong once suggested that Jia Jing take the opportunity to wipe out all the moths in Ningrong and Rongfu, but the old patriarch did not accept this suggestion.

Of course, he wasn't soft-hearted or had any scruples.The personal soldiers secretly thoroughly investigated the servants in charge of the two mansions, those spies who were placed in the two mansions and the moths in the house. After discussing with Jia She, Jia Jing planned to boil the frogs in warm water and gradually transfer them away from important posts.

However, these people will still be allowed to stay in the two mansions. After all, open spies are much easier to deal with than covert spies. Maybe they can use these spies in the future to give those people a backhand.

Jia Cong, who had slept beautifully, regained his spirits.Before dawn, the gate of Daxia was already full of civil and military officials waiting to go to court.

"Crack, click, click..."

The warm sesame cakes are really delicious, and the aroma almost made the hungry officials around cry...

"I saw a chubby orange cat from a long distance away, and when I got closer, it turned out to be Mrs. Jia!"

"Senior Fang, do you want to eat?"

"I'm hungry, come get one!"

"Crack, click, click..."

"To be honest, going to court is really tiring, and you have to get up before dawn, no wonder my father would rather be a stable general than an official in the court... Kachacha, Kachacha..."

"Uh~ I'm alright, the previous court is even more tiring, and I'm going to court at the beginning of Mao Shichu. The great grandfather at least put the morning court at Chen Shi. Kachacha, Kachacha..."

Two hamsters, one large and one small, kept clicking, and the officials who were hungry and waiting to go to court were crying without tears.

At the end of Mao, the Jingyang bell rang.

After three blows of the whip, all civil and military personnel lined up in four rows and entered Fengtian Hall one by one...

According to the usual practice, the Great Court will always have to talk about unnutritious things for a while, and Jia Cong, who is satiated and dozed against the pillar, will fall asleep after a while...

Bang!
Boom!
"Old man, I will fight with you today!"

"Vulgar! Is it because this old man doesn't provide you with food and grass? Even the mice are starving to death in the grain depot of the household department. Where do you ask this old man to find food for you?"

"Who knows if the rats ate it or you, an old man, are greedy for ink..."

"Yuan Gou, how dare you say that this old man is greedy for ink...and take a knife from this old man!"

wow...

"General Yuan stop..."

"Master Wen calm down, don't dare to swing a knife!"

Um?There is excitement?
Jia Cong, who was awakened by a burst of noise, immediately regained his spirits when he looked into the hall.

Good guy, it turned out to be the God of Wealth fighting with someone, and even ran to the general of the big man, snatched his Yi knife with lightning speed, and rushed straight to the big man with beard standing in the hall...

"enough!"

Bickering and fighting at the court meeting is the most common thing. On weekdays, no matter the monarch or his subjects, most of them take it as a joke.

But when Wen Tongxuan fought with a knife, it scared everyone in the hall. Even the emperor Liu Heng, who was sitting on the dragon chair, couldn't help but stood up and shouted angrily: "Wen Tongxuan, Yuan Chenghuan, the imperial court! For disrespect, half a year's salary will be fined!"

"Okay, okay, you are really my good ministers, and you are all using knives when discussing state affairs. Are you going to push the artillery into the palace next time, and have a vigorous duel?"

Wen Tongxuan felt aggrieved, burst into tears, and sat directly in the hall, crying: "I am wronged, Your Majesty, since I became an official, I have been conscientious and diligent, why have I ever been greedy for a penny? Yuan Chenghuan slandering old ministers and being greedy for ink is inferior to scolding veterans as Japanese people!"

"Hmph, who knows if there is greedy ink?"

Yuan Chenghuan snorted coldly and bowed: "Your Majesty, there is nothing I can do. Since the winter of last year, the heavy snow in Liaodong has never stopped. Jinzhou Wei has sent a letter of plea for help a few years ago. If they don't send food and grass, the soldiers outside Shanhaiguan Starved to death!"

"No money, no food!"

As soon as Wen Tongxuan heard the request for food and grass, Wen Tongxuan immediately turned into an old Pixiu. He didn't complain about his grievances. He got up from the ground and began to complain: "At the beginning of autumn last year, the Ministry of Households sent enough food to Jinzhou for a year. I sent over part of the share of the Beijing camp. General Yuan, I really want to know, do the soldiers in Jinzhou have one more mouth than others? Eat so fast!"

What's your plan, Yuan Chenghuan, do you think the old man doesn't know?
The private soldiers of Dongping County Prince's Mansion also want to pay for money and food from the old man?Want to cheat food and grass from this old man, dreaming!
Liu Heng looked at Yuan Chenghuan coldly, despising the two ends of his snake and mouse in his heart, but it is not suitable for Liaodong to move lightly at the moment, so he can only suppress his dissatisfaction.

After thinking about it again and again, he still said: "The Ministry of Households, send the grain and grass for March to Jinzhou!"

Yuan Chenghuan immediately bowed and bowed happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Wen Tongxuan immediately turned his head, gritted his teeth and replied, "The household department has no food!"

The emperor on Majesty Dan warned in a deep voice: "Wen Tongxuan!"

"Even if His Majesty kills the old minister, there will be no food in the grain depot of the household department!"

This old guy!

Cut out like this, this is the only one in Mandaxia!
Liu Heng had no choice but to say distressedly: "The internal treasury will allocate 50 taels of silver, and the household department will use it to buy grain and send it to Jinzhou!"

"The old minister leads the order!"

Wen Tongxuan bowed arrogantly when he heard that the inner treasury had issued the money.

50 taels of silver, then use 25 taels to buy some coarse grains and send them to Jinzhou. The rest of the silver will be put into the treasury, and you can live comfortably for a few days.

At this time, Wen Tongxuan didn't have the grievance just now, got up arrogantly, and gestured to Xia Shouzhong asking for money, which immediately made the emperor laugh angrily.

"Wen Tongxuan, you..."

"Report to Your Majesty, it's time to call for the money owed by the Ministry of Accounts!"

Speaking of gags, who was Wen Tongxuan afraid of?
He immediately took out a memorial from his sleeve, spread it out without waiting for the emperor's permission, and began to read: "In the second year of the emperor's founding, the Xining County Palace borrowed 8 taels of silver, and the Beijing County Palace borrowed 8 taels of silver..."

"Wen Tongxuan, shut up!"

This is my courtier, the accounts of the early years of Taizu's founding of the emperor have been revealed!

"The household department has no money, and the minister will collect the debt today!"

"The minister, Jia Cong, has played!"

Ok?
Many members of the Metropolitan Procuratorate immediately became excited, and they had already clenched the fluorene board in their hands!

I saw Jia Cong moved into the hall with short legs, bowed and said: "On behalf of the Ningrong and Rongfu, I would like to invite your Majesty today. The Ningrong and Rongfu will first pay back the 10 taels of silver owed by the household department, and the rest of the owed silver. Repay in installments over three years!"

what?
Ok?
That's it?The words I was waiting for were pouring into my throat, so you just said this?
The censors who participated in the first anti-crime and anti-evil sports meeting were a little confused. The matter of owed money has nothing to do with me and others. Let's spray people first!

The censors don't care about this matter, but Wu Xun's relatives are all fried.

It has been so many years since the founding of the country, and which one owes Daji 10 taels.Didn't we all make an appointment to be an old Lai?Jia Jia, what are you doing here?Want to cut yourself off from the founding line?
"Your minister, please return the money owed by the Ministry of Finance to the Zhen Guo Mansion..."

"Your minister, please return the money from the Duke Cheng'en's residence..."

"Bong Enbo's residence, please return the money..."

"Wei Jiazuo, please return the money owed to the household department!"

……

Following Jia Cong's request, many officials walked out of the queue and bowed to request the return of the money owed to the Ministry of Households.

Although most of them were played, please pay back part first, but it still made Wen Tongxuan smile so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.

He snatched the pen from the living room, and started to record it on the paper in a hurry, muttering incessantly: "One hundred thousand, one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand, another hundred thousand... If you are rich, you will be rich. Ha ha ha ha……"

"what……"

Wen Tongxuan rattled the abacus in his heart, and suddenly raised his head in doubt: "Dongping County King, Xining County King, Beijing County King, why don't the three princes speak?"

The main hall, which was noisy because of the repayment of the silver, fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes turned to the three men in python robes who were at the forefront of Wu Xun.

Shui Rong still looks like a glorious moon, maintaining his "virtuous king" appearance, and replied with a smile to Wen Tongxuan: "This king doesn't know about the money at home. I originally planned to go back and ask my mother and concubine first, and then go to the household. The Ministry will discuss with the Minister of Finance about repaying the money."

Wen Tongxuan nodded and said: "It's true, the king of Beijing County is a well-known virtuous king and a modest gentleman, and he will definitely not do anything that is owed and not repaid. This old man is confused!"

"The treasurer is ridiculous!"

Don't look at Shui Rong's calm face, in fact, the anger in his heart can hardly be suppressed.He hid the anger in his eyes, bowed his hands to Wen Tongxuan, and retreated into the queue.

Ningrong Jia's family is willing to pay back the money, but his Shui family still has so many private soldiers. After paying back the money, how can they raise soldiers?
