After the child's mind was read, the tyrant caught the male queen with a black face

The Crown Prince and the Emperor looked up at the Minister of Revenue.

The other court officials also looked at the Minister of Revenue in surprise. The Crown Prince lives in the Eastern Palace! Why don't you approve this request?!

The Minister of Revenue trembled.

But he soon calmed down, with a look of helplessness and resignation on his face.

Yuan Ruan was shocked: [Ah? My nephew's palace is broken? When did it happen? ]

System: [Aruan, have you forgotten? A few days ago, when you were chatting with the golden eagles, you casually mentioned that the kitchen didn't have enough firewood. The golden eagles remembered it and flew around the palace. They found that the wood of the windows of the side hall of the East Palace was very solid, so they brought a few of them to you. The beams and windows of the East Palace that were broken by the golden eagles are leaking water.]

Prince:......

The East Palace was damaged by the golden eagle? And it's leaking?

The court officials all looked at the prince: This is too tragic, and it is difficult to hold the bird responsible.

Yuan Ruan was also stunned: [Ah? This is about the golden eagles? I just said it casually just to interact and play with the golden eagles.]

System: [Yes. I understand. Ah Ruan just saw that the golden eagles were a little bored, and wanted to help them move around, so I just found a reason to let them help you pick up dead branches on the ground. But they have simple ideas and want to give Ah Ruan more.]

Yuan Ruan held his forehead and said seriously: [Be careful with your words and actions! I will be careful with my words and actions towards animals in the future. ]

System: [In fact, it’s not just the East Palace. For example, the Three Princes’ Palace wanted to borrow some money from the inner treasury to repair the house a few days ago, but the Minister of Revenue did not approve it. There are also princes and princes. They could have applied to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to borrow some money, but they didn’t get it either... There are quite a lot of such situations. Only your brother is not unable to borrow money, but there have been no natural disasters or man-made disasters recently, otherwise it would be difficult even if your brother stepped in...]

Yuan Ruan suddenly realized something was wrong: [Tong'er, the inner treasury seems to be my brother's private treasury! It's out of the reach of the Minister of Revenue! Do you need his approval? ]

System: [He has no control over it, but he embezzled the money from the inner treasury first, and the inner treasury is short of money. He can only leave the royal family members who borrowed money alone.]

Yuanruan was shocked: [Ah? Did you secretly embezzle my brother's inner treasury? This will cost you your head! ]

The courtiers' pupils trembled: !!!

Frog fun!

Minister of Revenue, are you tired of living?! How dare you mess with the emperor's private treasury?!

System: [Not private embezzlement, mainly because Daxia needed money for too many things this year. For example, the production and promotion of new things such as paper and curved plows, locust plagues, money for treating locusts and subsequent appeasement. And Daxia’s military expenses, this is the big part! Every head captured by a soldier can be exchanged for money... The national treasury is not enough, so the Minister of Revenue asked your brother for help, hoping to embezzle some of the money in the inner treasury to fill the gap. Your brother agreed.]

Yuan Ruan breathed a sigh of relief: [It's easy to talk about if you agree. ]

The emperor's face darkened. He agreed, but he did not agree to embezzle all the inner treasury!

The Minister of Revenue's hands were trembling slightly as he wiped his sweat. He took a deep breath, smiled bitterly and closed his eyes.

System: [Well, your brother agreed, but not to such a large amount. Anyway, due to some coincidences, a little over 100 million items were moved from this inner storehouse.]

Yuanruan: [Ah? What kind of coincidence? ]

System: [In fact, the Minister of Revenue did not intend to embezzle a lot of money from the inner treasury at the beginning. For this purpose, he also made a spending plan with tens of thousands of words. For example, at what time, how much money can be given to which department, when to use tax subsidies, etc. But plans cannot keep up with changes. Except for book printing, money for things like agricultural tool promotion, disaster relief, and military rewards often exceeds the plan. And those who come to ask for money have legitimate reasons. For example, if more money is not paid to the disaster victims today, the people will not be able to farm, which will affect the tax revenue next year. The same is true for the military. If the per capita reward is not paid, the morale of the soldiers will be affected, and it is easy to lose the battle...]

Yuan Ruan nodded repeatedly: [It makes sense. These subsidies cannot be reduced. The Minister of Revenue did this for the sake of Daxia's foundation, so it is understandable. ]

The emperor narrowed his eyes.

The prince looked at the Minister of Revenue and then stole a glance at the emperor.

The Minister of War pursed his lips, leaned over to the Minister of Revenue and whispered, "It's hard for you to work so hard for the soldiers of Daxia."

The Minister of Revenue glanced at the Minister of War expressionlessly, his eyes full of the urge to kill someone, and he gritted his teeth and whispered, "Then you should propose to His Majesty to withdraw the troops."

The Minister of War touched the tip of his nose and whispered, "If His Majesty punishes you, I will bear the consequences together."

The Minister of Revenue rolled his eyes and said: Get lost.

——I knew this war maniac would rather be punished together than give up conquering the world.

System: [That's it. Every day, we need to give more here and there. In addition, several departments know that the treasury is empty, and they are afraid that they will not be able to get money later. Therefore, the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of War will ask for money every time they come. This also caused the plan made by the Minister of Revenue to fail faster.]

As soon as he finished speaking, the Minister of Revenue cast his sharp eyes on the Minister of Works and the Minister of War.

The two ministers looked at the sky and the earth, but did not look at the Minister of Revenue.

Yuan Ruan was puzzled again: [Hiss, so he has no choice... But Tong'er, I remember Zhou sent the mining industry. The Huainan King, the Queen Mother, and the Second Prince were confiscated, and there are also blueprints of two silver mines, which should be able to make up for it. ]

System: [It can be made up, but it takes time to turn mining into wealth. And everything I just told you happened within this year, or even half a year. If your brother hadn't confiscated the property of the Second Prince, the King of Huainan, and the Queen Mother, and seized a large amount of gold, silver, and jewelry, the Ministry of Revenue would have collapsed long ago. Let alone defeating the State of Chen this year, it would have been difficult to repel the Xiongnu. We would have had to go home two months ago.]

Yuan Ruan took a deep breath and suddenly put his hands together: [Thank you, King Huainan, Queen Mother, and Second Prince, for your support. ]

The system also followed the electronic and clasped its hands together: [Thank you, big brother on the first, second and third place! ]

The Minister of War also clasped his hands together.

Minister of the Ministry of Finance:...
