You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?
Chapter 97 How to solve the problem of empty treasury?
After finally waiting for her chance to speak, Du Zhirou immediately became very proud, glared at Eunuch Liu and said:
"Your Majesty, I heard that my sister is extremely greedy. She thinks the medical fee is too low, so she deliberately robs the patients of their gold and silver jewelry to get so much silver."
Du Zhirou gently let go of Zhu Yunhao's arm, picked up a cup of tea and sipped it slowly.
She quietly observed Zhu Yunhao's actions from the corner of her eye, secretly delighted in her heart.
Who would have thought that Zhu Yunhao was even more anxious than her and asked back:
"Oh? Is that so?"
"Yes, I heard that the golden hairpin you gave to Princess Yunluo was also taken away by my sister.
If you don't believe it, Your Majesty, you can just call Princess Yunluo to ask her. "
Du Zhirou would not let go easily if there was any chance to step on Du Qingwan. She would quickly tell Zhu Yunhao what she had recently found out, adding fuel to the fire.
Zhu Yunhao was almost shocked when he heard this. His eyes widened in shock and his mouth involuntarily formed an O shape.
"You can always find a pretext to accuse someone of something! Is it true that my sister just can't wait for me to be well?"
At this moment, Du Qingwan, who had been standing outside the door in silence, suddenly pushed the door open and her face gradually became gloomy.
Du Zhirou subconsciously staggered back a step, and the teacup in her hand almost fell to the ground.
After Du Qingwan simply bowed, she gave Du Zhirou a fierce look, then quickly walked in front of Zhu Yunhao and asked coldly:
"Your Majesty, do you believe what your sister said, or what I said?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunhao felt very embarrassed and his face was full of embarrassment.
He subconsciously looked at the trembling eunuch Liu and quietly winked at him, indicating that eunuch Liu should express his opinion.
Eunuch Liu understood instantly, took a step forward slowly, and said:
"Your Majesty, I also believe that the Queen is not that kind of person.
I have recently heard from the concubines in the palaces that the Empress not only has superb medical skills, but also charges less for consultations than the Imperial Hospital."
"They also said that the Queen is simply the reincarnation of Guanyin, and is the lucky star who saved Daye."
After Eunuch Liu finished speaking, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at Du Zhirou.
His nose was raised, his face full of arrogance and contempt.
Seeing this, Du Zhirou was so angry that she almost vomited blood and died. She gnashed her teeth in hatred and bit her lips until they turned purple.
"Facts speak louder than words! Anyway, what I heard was not what you said at all!
If you don't believe me...we can call Princess Yunluo to ask her carefully!"
Du Zhirou refused to admit that she had lied and insisted that Eunuch Liu was deliberately trying to clear Du Qingwan's name.
Zhu Yunhao was also confused and looked at Du Qingwan helplessly:
"Queen, would you mind calling Princess Yunluo over?"
"Your Majesty, of course I am willing to do so. Those who are innocent will be innocent.
You can call over all the concubines, palace maids, and eunuchs that I have treated, and I have no objection."
What shocked everyone present was that when Du Qingwan heard that Zhu Yunhao was going to call Princess Yunluo to verify, she remained calm and composed.
Du Zhirou lost her composure instantly and pointed at Du Qingwan and yelled:
"Du Qingwan, just wait to be executed! You are deceiving the emperor, do you understand?"
Du Qingwan had expected to be maliciously slandered by Du Zhirou.
She sat at the small table calmly, poured herself a cup of tea, and said nonchalantly:
"Your Majesty, the trial must be conducted as soon as possible. Otherwise, everyone may be bribed by someone with ulterior motives and their statements may be tampered with.
At that time, whether it is punishing me or my sister, it is a result you don't want to see, right?"
Having said that, Du Qingwan gently put down the teacup, stood up gracefully, and looked calm and composed.
After taking a displeased glance at Du Zhirou, whose face was red and neck was thick with anger, she slightly opened her red lips and continued speaking.
"I'm going to say something unpleasant. I was the queen of Daye when I was alive, and I'll be the lonely ghost of the deposed queen of Daye when I die."
"Since the national treasury is now empty, I have a way to make sure we have enough food and clothing. If I can fill up Daye's treasury, wouldn't that make me Daye's savior?"
"Now you are calling all my patients here just based on my sister's one-sided words. Isn't that a bit too much?"
Du Qingwan said a lot of things, but just wanted to make one point---
She has ways of filling the treasury.
This was the reason why she came to Qian'an Palace today.
Moreover, she firmly believed that Zhu Yunhao would accept her proposal.
"What do you mean, Queen? Can you fill the treasury of Daye and save the people of the world from famine?"
Sure enough, driven by strong curiosity, Zhu Yunhao couldn't wait to know Du Qingwan's solution.
Du Qingwan was not modest either, she smiled calmly and immediately responded:
"That's natural."
Du Qingwan remained calm and spoke calmly.
If Zhu Yunhao didn't have any patience, his expression would change immediately.
He originally thought that Du Qingwan was just trying to clear himself and deliberately made up such a lie in order to offend him.
On second thought, Du Qingwan was so calm, she must have a way to solve Daye's current urgent problem.
You know, Daye today is different from before.
Half a year ago, due to the appearance of unknown insect monsters in the lake, many fish raised by local people were killed.
Even the water quality became very turbid, and people became very cautious when using water.
In addition, there had been a locust plague for more than half a year. By the time Prince Changning returned to the palace to deal with the plague, the people had already lost more than half of their lives.
Although it cannot be said that there was no harvest at all, after deducting some exorbitant taxes and levies, there was almost nothing left.
If the people collect less, the national treasury will naturally be unable to make ends meet.
"If that's the case, Queen, why don't you tell us about it?"
Zhu Yunhao looked quite interested, looking at Du Qingwan with a smile, as if he had forgotten---
He had questioned her before.
Seeing this, Du Zhirou instantly became unhappy, stepped forward and tightly held Zhu Yunhao's arm, pouting her lips and anxiously said:
"Your Majesty! My sister is just a weak woman, how can she have a brilliant plan to govern the country?
She...she is just talking nonsense! Don't listen to her nonsense, or you will make a fool of yourself!"
“Your Majesty will decide whether I am talking nonsense or not.
Du Zhirou, do you dare to influence the ruler of a country?"
Du Zhirou never dreamed that Du Qingwan would actually retort her in public, and with such confidence.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunhao and Eunuch Liu were dumbfounded and both looked at a loss.
The two exchanged glances and gradually calmed down.
"Empress Rou, since the Queen has her own ideas, there's no harm in letting her speak up. Why are you so nervous?"
"Eunuch Liu, does what I said make sense?"
Zhu Yunhao didn't want to offend either side, so he spoke with a smile, and finally his eyes fell on Eunuch Liu.
Eunuch Liu, of course, stood on Zhu Yunhao's side and immediately nodded in response:
"Your Majesty is right. I also think that the Empress is well-educated and knowledgeable, and should be able to share the worries of the Emperor."
I have to say that Eunuch Liu's mouth was as sweet as honey, which made Zhu Yunhao very happy.
"In that case, Queen, you may now speak your mind. I am all ears."
Zhu Yunhao gently took Du Zhirou's hand, smiled and poured a cup of tea for Du Qingwan, his face filled with long-lost affection.
He was indeed eager to find a solution to the empty treasury.
