The three thousand in the harem are all me

Chapter 26 Welcome the new princess (1)

This time I lost face to grandma's house.

Pei Zhiyou woke up, and said with a serious face: "Everyone, don't panic, I can cure this poison."

The imperial doctors wept with joy, saying that the queen was indeed a miracle doctor.

"You read the prescription, and I will let them decoct it for you quickly."

Can't eat any more.Pei Zhi said weakly: "I have my own set of detoxification and massage techniques. You don't need to take medicine, you can just massage yourself."

Yin Yu picked him up, let him sit on her body, and said with serious eyes, "Rub it."

The detoxification and massage techniques are all made up by Pei Zhi.He didn't dare to say that he was fed up, since he had already said that he was poisoned, he had to come up with a treatment plan, so he made up a massage.

He gently pushed down on his stomach a few times with his hands, rubbed it in a circular motion, and repeated it several times under Yin Yu's eager gaze.

He was about to continue rubbing, but Yin Yu put his hands on his stomach.

"You don't have the strength, I will rub it for you." Since you want to detoxify, you must use some strength.

Without giving Pei Zhi time to react, Yin Yu has already imitated Pei Zhi's technique and started rubbing for him.

At this moment, Pei Zhi's stomach didn't hurt so much, but it couldn't stand Yin Yu's kneading so hard.

He hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, just rub it a few times, and the remaining poison has to be discharged slowly."

Is this all right?

Seeing Yin Yu's expression, he obviously didn't believe it.Pei Zhi didn't care anymore, he moved away from Yin Yu's body, lay back on the bed, and pulled the quilt over his head.

He didn't want to eat it!When he woke up in Defei Palace, he didn't have any appetite, but the palace people kept persuading him, so he ate some.

Concubine De ate, but the Empress hadn't.Back at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he lost his appetite as soon as he left. After all, he had been suffering for so long and his stomach was so empty. Seeing that Ruiju and the others had prepared a large table of delicacies, he ate two extra bowls.

He was full, but when he saw the food, he felt that he could eat a little more, so he pinched a few more snacks and ate them slowly.

Hence the tragedy above.

He is not afraid of pain, he is afraid of shame, and if it is spread that the queen is full of food and is almost regarded as dying, then he will become a big joke in the whole world.

Pei Zhi had nothing to love in the quilt, but he was obviously much better.Yin Yu started to investigate who had poisoned her, and the first thing she wanted to investigate was the plate of dim sum.

It was too messy just now, the dim sum had to be taken down by the imperial doctor to study what kind of poison it was.The imperial doctor studied for a long time, but he couldn't tell what kind of poison it was.

Yin Yu was free for the meeting, so he asked someone to bring the snacks.Pei Zhi had already eaten half of a plate of dim sum, and Yin Yu couldn't tell anything at first, so he picked up a piece and smelled it, and felt that the smell was familiar, so he took a bite of half of it.

The palace people were terrified. If something happened to the emperor, they would not have to live.

"Your Majesty, no!"

The little skinny man frantically tried to pat Yin Yu on the back to make him spit it out.

Yin Yu raised her hand to stop him, and slowly chewed half of the snack.

He looked down at Pei Zhi who was hiding under the quilt, and endured the pain in his head with a smile.

"There is no need for medical treatment, the queen actually..."

As he was talking, he saw two hands suddenly protruding from under the quilt, clasped them together, and gently shook them towards him.

After doing such a shameful thing, how dare you beg him to keep it a secret?Behind everyone's back, Yin Yu flicked him hard on the head through the quilt.Just at this moment, Pei Zhi's hand stopped for a moment, and then he began to beg again and again.

Such a silly queen, what else can she do if she doesn't pamper her.

"The empress has actually recovered a lot. After he massaged himself, nothing happened. You all should step back. The empress's pulse case is not allowed to be published, and anyone who violates it will be killed without mercy."

"The minister waits to obey the order." The imperial doctors withdrew.

Yin Yu waved his hand, and the palace people also left.Yin Yu gave him enough face, then lifted his quilt and asked him: "How does the queen feel?"

Pei Zhi wanted to cry: "The body is fine, but the face is gone."

"This snack is an ancient Sichuan medicinal herb unique to the southern border. It can nourish people's qi and blood, but eating it on a full stomach can cause abdominal pain. However, you are the first one I have ever seen who is full of food at such a young age. Abdominal pain." Yin Yu sighed heavily on purpose, "The imperial doctor can't see any of them, which shows how strange this matter is."

Pei Zhi covered his face: "Stop talking."

Yin Yu thought that he had been suffering in his stomach for the past few days, and finally couldn't bear to scold him again.After sitting with him for a while, seeing that he fell asleep from exhaustion, he got up and walked outside.

When he arrived at the outer hall, he asked Ruiju, "How is the queen's meal?"

Ruiju said: "Master's appetite has always been very good, and now it is getting better and better. He can eat three bowls of rice for dinner. Master is not picky about food, but he likes to eat what Xue Niangniang cooks."

Yin Yu was surprised: "How can he eat so much? When he eats with me, he can only have a bowl of porridge and a flower roll at most."

Ruiju covered her mouth and smiled: "As soon as you leave, the master will eat more. It's okay if you eat more serious meals, but if you use less, your mouth won't stop until the next meal time, but you will eat more." More."

"I see." Yin Yu said helplessly, "Order me down, the empress is seriously ill, and it is time for her frailty. From now on, she will only eat cabbage, tofu, and a bowl of porridge for three meals a day."

When Pei Zhi woke up again, it was already the second day, and the sky was slightly bright.He was very hungry and didn't want to bother others, so he went to the table to find something to eat.

Usually, there are a lot of food in his room, such as fresh fruit and snacks.Every hour, the palace servants would replace him with new ones.

But today, there was nothing on the table.He went back to the bed and endured it, but in the end he couldn't hold it back, and called the palace guard who was on duty outside.He said he was hungry, Ruixi came in and told the small kitchen to prepare breakfast immediately.

"There's no need to bother people anymore, just bring me some snacks."

Ruixi was in a dilemma: "Your Majesty forbids us to prepare any more snacks in the palace. I'd better have your servant prepare breakfast for you. It's simple and fast."

Pei Zhi rubbed his stomach, and agreed, "Yes, it's better to be simpler."

But he didn't expect that it would be as simple as a plate of boiled tofu and a bowl of porridge.Considering that only one of the palace servants who worked in the kitchen got up, even if he didn't like boiled tofu, he could only eat this.

He couldn't even pick up the tofu he was so hungry, so he drank half a bowl of porridge to pad his stomach, and then he had the strength to talk to Ruixi: "Which palace man cooks? Why didn't you give oil, even if you fry mapo tofu? of."

Ruixi smiled and said: "Master, you are seriously ill, it's better to eat something light." After finishing speaking, she went out with a smirk, as if Pei Zhi said something funny.

After only eating some boiled food, Pei Zhi naturally couldn't last until noon.But the entire Hall of Mental Cultivation doesn't even have any snacks.He also thought that his body was still a little weak and he should not eat more, so he endured it for half a day.At noon, when he saw that there was still only a bowl of boiled vegetables, he was not well.

Even if he made a big joke because he was full, Yin Yu wouldn't go to the other extreme and punish him so harshly, right?

You bastard, he must take revenge in the future!

Although Pei Zhi dared not speak out in anger in the face of the unreasonable tyrant, it did not prevent him from using his little brain.He left the "Queen" to eat in the house, and happily went to Xue Meiren's place on a small motor.

The queen had to eat light food when she was sick, but Beauty Xue didn't need it.Yin Yu would never have imagined that he would be able to transform and eat the food of Beauty Xue!

At the same time, in the East Nuan Pavilion, Yin Yu casually asked the palace servants, "How is the Queen?"

The palace servants talked about what Pei Zhi ate for breakfast and lunch, and also said that the queen wandered around the rooms of the Hall of Mental Cultivation all morning, trying to find something to eat.

"What about the palaces?"

"It's all done according to His Majesty's orders."

Yin Yu raised her head, thought about Pei Zhi's painful expression for a while, and couldn't help pursing her lips.Even if Pei Zhi is a little vixen, if he fights with him, he will only lose.

Chuxiu Palace.

When Pei Zhi entered the house, he called the palace servants to bring him lunch quickly.Beauty Xue had just moved out of the cold palace, and when she was in favor again, her daily meals were the best except for the queen and concubine De.Pei Zhi thought about the fact that Xue Meiren had half a pig and half a sheep in her lunch, so he couldn't help swallowing, and called the palace servants to tell him: "The sheep must be roasted, and the pork is fine, but I have to give it to the palace." Stew a pig's trotter."

The palace man was dumbfounded, although he looked at him sympathetically. "Master, are you hungry and confused?"

Pei Zhi: "..." What does it mean to be hungry and confused?

The palace said distressedly: "Master, bear with it, when the queen's master recovers, you don't have to fast to pray for the queen."

Pei asked: "Is it just me praying for the queen, or all the palaces praying?"

"All palaces have to pray for blessings, even with a body like Concubine De's, she has to starve for a few days."

It turned out that Yin Yu asked other people to fast and pray for him. The anger in Pei Zhi's heart dissipated instantly, and he felt very sweet and very happy.

It seems that Yin Yu has not changed his mind. No matter what, he is still the main one and treats him well.

Forget it, let him go back to eat boiled cabbage reluctantly, he must be worthy of Yin Yu's heart.

Dongnuan Pavilion.

Yin Yu calculated that the time was almost up, and sure enough, when she raised her head, the hidden guard came in.

"The queen's master refused to eat at first, and complained a few words. Then she stopped talking and finished her lunch quietly. It's just strange..." The dark guard hesitated, "Master just returned home after eating. When he went inside, he came out again suddenly, and ordered the servants to bring him lunch, as if he had never eaten it. Ruiju told him that he had already eaten all the lunch, but he still didn't believe it, so he insisted on bringing him another lunch from the small kitchen Everyone refused to make a copy, and the queen made a fuss and went back to the house."

Just as he was talking, he heard the palace people outside paying their respects to the queen.

The dark guard wondered: "The minister has good legs and feet, he came here by running, how could the queen come here so quickly?"

Because it was a goblin.Yin Yu hooked her lips, and before Pei Zhi came in, she quickly returned to her expressionless face.

Pei Zhi came in with a cup of hot tea, and put it on Yin Yu's table neatly. Seeing that Yin Yu was reading the booklet seriously, he didn't have the nerve to speak.

He stood by the side for a quarter of an hour, and his stomach began to growl in disbelief.

Yin Yu glanced at his stomach lightly, and he was ashamed.People are working hard on state affairs, but he walks around the palace because of a mouthful of food.

"Hungry?" Yin Yu finally spoke.

Pei Zhi suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and shook his head lightly: "I'm not hungry, the state affairs are important, I'll wait for Your Majesty to have lunch together."

"Really?" Yin Yu patted the arm-high paper on the table, "Then just wait, that's all. In an hour, I will definitely be able to approve it."

Pei Zhi: "..." There is no end to the pain in my heart.

But Yin Yu didn't starve him after all, and asked the palace servants to prepare a meal amidst the rumble of his stomach.

Pei Zhi secretly thought that the emperor had the most divisions, with 81 dishes alone.He must hold back later and eat less, so he can't be ashamed anymore.

The lunch was placed on the porch, and he and Yin Yu walked over together, seeing the two simple vegetarian dishes on the table, his little face suddenly collapsed.

He couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, we don't need to eat at separate tables. What do you want to eat, bring it over and eat together."

Yin Yu deliberately expressed surprise, pointing to the two dishes on the table: "Isn't this my meal? I don't want you to be a vegetarian alone, so I will eat with you."

"But it's not enough for the two of us to eat. Your Majesty, you really don't need to accompany me. Tell the palace servants to make pork knuckles, whole roasted chicken, and braised prawns. I will definitely not eat them, so I will take a look." "

"You just look at it?" Yin Yu asked.

Pei Zhikuang nodded.

Yin Yu had a soft heart at first, and wanted to eat vegetarian food with him, but who knew that yesterday he was so painful that he almost died, and this guy still didn't have a long memory, so he wanted to let go and eat.

He then ordered the palace servants to prepare meals as usual.The palace people moved quickly, as soon as Pei Zhi took two mouthfuls of rice, the shiny pig's feet were brought up.

The palace man cut a small piece with a knife and put it in Yin Yu's bowl.Yin Yu picked it up, and under Pei Zhi's eager gaze, slowly put it into her mouth, biting lightly, the strong fragrance spread in her mouth...

Pei Zhi swallowed, and silently lowered his head to eat the cabbage.

Suddenly, a pair of chopsticks held a piece of pig's foot and wanted to send it to his bowl.His eyes lit up, and he encouraged the palace man who was still a little hesitant: don't get entangled, let it in, hurry up.

"Cough." Yin Yu coughed.

The palace people seemed to wake up, remembering that the empress can't eat meat, so they quickly put it in His Majesty's bowl.

Pei Zhi: "..." Once you get it, you can't bear the pain of losing it.

Smelling all kinds of meat, he pitifully accompanied Yin Yu for lunch.

Afterwards, the two took a walk in the imperial garden.Yin Yu looked at his tight clothes and said displeasedly: "You are the queen, the first day I welcome you in, the whole palace will obey your orders. Why don't you even make a new dress?"

When Pei Zhi heard this, he couldn't help complaining about him in his heart: I'm not afraid of wearing new clothes, you prosopagnosia patients can no longer tell who is who!

Yin Yu said again: "You should also take care of the palaces. If it's warmer today, make new clothes and replace everything in the house."

"Yes."

Seeing that he hadn't eaten well, Yin Yu's face was slumped, she smiled and took out a cloth bag from her bosom, opened it, and there were various preserved fruits inside.

Before he could say anything, a loud swallowing sound immediately sounded in his ears.

Pei Zhi will be ashamed enough in the future, and at this moment, he simply wants to lose face. Qiqi Ai Ai asked: "I recently ate a little too much, which made me sick, but my appetite has also grown, and suddenly I changed from big fish and meat to porridge and side dishes. , I really can't take it physically. Could Your Majesty be merciful and let me eat it step by step."

"If you are obedient, I will let you eat a few more bites."

Pei Zhi stared straight at the preserved fruit, begging madly, and kept nodding his head: "Be obedient, be obedient."

"So cute." Yin Yu took a piece of his favorite and fed it to his mouth.

Pei Zhi instantly felt that it was delicious.To him, the cabbage tofu he ate today seemed like he hadn't eaten it. He wanted to eat everything he saw.

After going on a diet for a day, Pei Zhi no longer had the strength to move.He was lying on the imperial concubine's couch reading a book, and the palace servants came to report that the tailor-made mother had arrived.

"All the masters of the palaces have been measured. Originally, according to the rules, each palace has different proportions. For example, you have twenty sets of spring clothes and fifty summer clothes."

Pei Zhi, who can usually survive a whole summer with just three white T-shirts, just finds it incredible.

But the mother said: "However, the servants measured the body of each master, and found that the masters have gained a lot of weight, and the original clothes must not be worn anymore. In this way, more formal clothes of various colors should be made. The servants boldly suggested, Here you have fifty sets of spring shirts and one hundred sets of summer clothes. For the concubine de concubine, according to the rules, the price will be reduced by half... and for the palace servants, each person should also get two sets of spring and summer clothes."

One hundred pieces of new clothes are needed in summer, isn't that a new suit every day?It's too much trouble to change back and forth, it's better to live comfortably with just a few bodies.

"Where's His Majesty's clothes?" Pei asked.

"It's the same as you."

Pei Zhi frowned: "Except for Your Majesty, everyone makes ten sets of spring shirts and twenty sets of summer shirts."

The mother came down and said: "The cloth in the warehouse is enough, but the patterns are inevitably not as many as the ones outside. Shall we ask the palace servants to buy some outside the palace?"

"buy it."

"I don't have enough embroiderers. Can I get more embroiderers for the selection of the palace this time? I also need to buy some embroidery tools."

Pei Zhi heard something wrong: "Why is there nothing?"

The mother smiled and said: "Master doesn't know, since His Majesty came to the throne, all the concubines have left with the late emperor, and the harem has no master to take care of, so it is inevitable that there are many things missing."

Pei Zhi didn't care much about the harem, his mind was on Yin Yu, and every day the eunuch in charge came to report to him, and he just listened to it.

"Okay, I understand. You ask Xiu Niang to make a few sets for everyone first, and the palace servants first make a set of spring shirts to wear."

The smile on Mammy's lips faded, she saluted and left.

Ruiju sensed Nanny's dissatisfaction and reminded Pei Zhi: "Master, this is your first time making clothes for Mangong, it's best to follow the usual rules, or you can only make more and not less, otherwise you will inevitably be criticized."

Pei Zhi nodded: "Take your time, don't be in a hurry to agree to her. Go and bring me the account books and notebooks in the hands of all the people in charge of the palace."

He checked to see if there was anything tricky, and he couldn't listen to what the palace man said, so he directly ordered to do it.The tens of thousands of people in the palace are all made of clothes, what a huge expense!

But it was easy for him to think. When the account books and booklets piled up in front of him like a hill, he was dumbfounded and didn't know where to look.

Yin Yu came back, heard him talk about it, and laughed at him: "If the water is clear, there will be no fish. There are so many people in the palace, there must be a lot of shameful things in it. Why do you bother with them seriously?"

"I have nothing to do. It's not a big deal to eat, drink and play in the palace all day long. According to the mother's words, I can't make clothes without 10 taels. I just want to see if I can save some money?"

Yin Yu nodded: "It happens that the front line is tight, and the treasury can't get the money. If you can really save a sum of money and use it on the soldiers, it will be a great thing."

Pei Zhi became interested. Although he lived a happy life when he opened his mouth and stretched out his hands, he couldn't be a rice bug forever.He is very happy when he has something to do, and he will be even happier if he can help Yin Yu.

He moved as he said, sitting in front of the long desk, took out a booklet and read it carefully.

Yin Yu saw that Pei Zhi was serious, so she took a script to pass the time.He read two pages, and then looked at Pei Zhi. This guy's back was bent, and he kept scratching his head with a pen.

Turning over a few more pages of the script, he looked up at Pei Zhi, who was already lying on the long table.

When he was about to take a rest, Pei Zhi had already fallen asleep on the long table.

He walked over, picked him up horizontally, and prepared to carry him back to bed to sleep.I don't want Pei Zhi to wake up as soon as he moves with something on his mind.

"I don't sleep, I must read these books tonight!"

Yin Yu disagreed: "Why do you have to make things difficult for yourself? I let you be a queen to let you enjoy the blessings, not to let you be a coolie."

Pei Zhi firmly shook his head.

"It's only 10 taels, it's a big deal to go out of my private treasury. Go to sleep, your body is sick every day, you can't stay up late anymore."

"No, I can't fall asleep if I can't finish reading."

Yin Yu suppressed a smile, didn't she sleep soundly just now?He took out a preserved fruit and said temptingly: "Be obedient, as long as you go to sleep, I will give you one."

Pei Zhi's eyes wavered slightly.He wanted to eat, but he couldn't take it because of his stuttering.

"I don't want to eat."

"You don't understand." Yin Yu said in a doting tone, "Sleep first, tomorrow I will find someone to teach you, in about one or two months, you will be able to understand."

Pei Zhi was still a little shaken at first, but when he heard Yin Yu say this, he felt that his dignity as a big lion was insulted.

He pushed Yin Yu back to rest, and decided to fight hard all night by himself.

That bastard Yin Yu dared to underestimate him!He must let Yin Yu see his skills.

But what exactly is written in this booklet?How much money should be recorded for such a small matter?

When are we going to see this bunch?

Pei Zhi laughed bitterly, but when he lowered his head, he saw a cloth bag on the corner of the table. When he opened it, there were several preserved fruits inside.

He turned his head and smiled at Yin Yu who was lying down. This guy still felt sorry for him because he was hungry.

After eating a sweet candied fruit, he cheered himself on and worked hard!

"Some readers hit mine hard, congratulations on getting the privilege."

Pei Zhi was overjoyed, the thunder was too timely.

"I want to exchange the skill of reading the ledger, no, no, let me think about it." He can't just read the ledger, he must have enough ability, not only to be able to read the ledger, but also to be able to manage the harem.

He thought for a while: "I want to exchange for the business ability of a wealthy businessman." A wealthy businessman must first be able to read accounts, and he must also have management skills.And the most important point is that the businessman is a good communicator, he can see many people and recognize them accurately, which is also what he lacks.

000 said: "I have entered into your mind all the characteristics that a big businessman who is as wealthy as a country needs to possess."

"Wait, what I want is ability."

000 Lazy: "Input is enabled."

"You are a hot chicken system without J, J."

In fact, Yin Yu didn't want Pei Zhizhen to worry about chores in the palace at all.No matter how short of money there is outside, he can find a solution by himself, so he doesn't have to embarrass Pei Zhi.

He has worked so hard on political affairs, can't he let the one he loves enjoy comfortably?

But when he sat up from the bed, he saw Pei Zhi flipping through the account book page by page, muttering something in his mouth, writing and revising in the account book without stopping.More than half of the "hills" that were originally piled up in front of the long case were moved to the side and put away by categories.

He walked over and saw the black eyes in Pei Zhi's eyes, and said angrily, "You really haven't slept all night? You are such an old man, and you can't do such a simple thing as taking care of yourself?"

Pei Zhi raised his head and glanced at him quickly, almost crazy: "By the way, I have already calculated 10,000+ taels of loopholes, and this is just the booklet from the end of the new year to the present. If you give me the booklet for one year, I will definitely be able to find it. There are millions of taels of loopholes."

"Stand aside?" Yin Yu also wanted to go crazy, "I am the emperor, you let me step aside?"

Pei Zhi asked him coldly: "If you step aside, can I give you 10 taels?"

Yin Yu: "..." Why does it seem like a different person?

"Don't bother me." Pei Zhi wanted to bury his head in the ledger.

Seeing this, Yin Yu knew that now was not the time to argue with him, so she walked away silently and put a cup of hot tea for him beside the long desk.

He took a few mouthfuls of breakfast, and seeing that Pei Zhi was still busy, he told Ruiju: "Don't let him eat tofu and cabbage for breakfast today, make him a tonic soup, make some buns with different fillings, and prepare a few more. A small dish. After a while, if he still doesn't come out to eat, you have to remind him."

"The servant knows."

Only then did Yin Yu feel relieved to go to court.In the court hall, there was a constant quarrel because of the need for food and grass on the front line.Military generals believed that, no matter what, there was enough food and grass, and civilian officials believed that there was not much money in the treasury now, and the front lines were only confronting each other, and there might not be a fight, so there was no need to spend so much money first.

"Your Majesty, please judge." The minister of the Ministry of War argued with flushed cheeks and neck, "If there is a real fight and there is not enough food and armor, then the soldiers will fight with their lives."

"In Yichen's opinion, the chances of a fight are not high. Your Majesty, even if you send food to the front line, you don't need to send 20 taels of food!"

"What you said is simple, armor or weapons, which one doesn't cost money? 20 taels may seem like a lot, but if it is used on soldiers, you will not be afraid of the enemy's provocation, and you will be victorious in every battle!"

Yin Yu waited for them to quarrel enough, and then asked slowly: "Department of household, how much money can I get out?"

"Up to 5 taels."

Yin Yu nodded: "I open a private treasury, and take out 5 taels, 10 taels, that's all I can do."

The generals reluctantly agreed.

After the court was over, Yin Yu left Miao Lixun to talk.

"I have to find a way to get another 10 taels." Yin Yu frowned, "The soldiers are giving us their heads in exchange for safety. Can we still bargain for human lives? 10 taels, let's find a way to get it together."

Miao Lixun said: "10 taels, the treasury still has enough. However, the front line may not be able to fight, but once the money is invested, it will not come back. Qin Tianjian said that there may be a severe drought this summer. , Disaster relief is a sum of money, the people’s harvest has been reduced, and the tax revenue in the coming year will definitely not be good. If this happens, the treasury must save a sum of money to guarantee the expenses for the next two years.”

Yin Yu remained silent.

It is true that they all have to use silver, and neither side can be fooled.

"If it doesn't work, then take another 10 taels from my private treasury."

"Your Majesty's private treasury doesn't have that much money." Pei Zhi came in suddenly, without saying hello, took an abacus, put it on the table, and started counting. "The current silver is only 7 taels, and there are a lot of treasures in the warehouse. You can sell a few pieces and make up 10 taels. I recommend you sell these treasures for money."

Pei Zhi then scribbled down a few prices on the paper: "This is the recommended place and price for you to sell."

Yin Yu: "..."

He picked up the paper and handed it to Miao Lixun, who looked at it and was full of praise. “The price is reasonable and the place you are looking for is also very suitable.”

Yin Yu was surprised that Pei Zhi still had this ability?

He wanted to try Pei Zhi's skills, and said casually: "The front line needs 20 taels, but the treasury can only pay 5 taels."

"That's a difference of 15 taels." Pei Zhi quickly calculated, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs has embezzled 15 taels of Mexican money in the past two months, and it can probably recover 8 taels. If you want to stabilize people's hearts, you can only get back 5 taels. If this month's expenses are strictly controlled from now on, we can save 3 taels. This will bring us 8 taels. His Majesty's private treasury has exactly 7 taels, and 15 taels are all together."

Miao Lixun was shocked: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs can embezzle 15 taels of ink in two months, that's impossible!"

Pei Zhibai glanced at him: "How is it impossible? You don't even look at how many people are raised in the palace. Doesn't everyone have money for food and clothing? The palace alone has 8 to 30 taels of foreign purchases every month. At the same time, the concubines, palace servants, and guards in the palace will be given monthly money. There is still a year in these two months. His Majesty has rewarded the ministers with a lot of things. Do the math, there is no more than [-] taels of silver. ?”

Miao Lixun almost lost his temper when he heard it, but he thought that the reward he received was indeed worth a lot of money, so he couldn't say anything more.

Pei Zhi turned the abacus up and down, and the beads returned to their original positions.He asked Yin Yu: "In fact, the front line may not need as much silver as 20 taels."

Yin Yu shook her head: "Palace people can live frugally, but soldiers can't skimp on food and grass."

Pei Zhi spread his hands: "Is there a list of how much food and grass you need?"

Yin Yu gave him the list, he glanced at it, and started to make calculations, leaving Yin Yu and Miao Lixun staring at him in surprise.

In less than half an hour, Pei Zhi held up the bill he had written and showed it to Yin Yu: "If it is based on the quantity on the list, 15 taels is enough. This is still the price purchased by the imperial court. Armor and weapons do not need to change the price, but food and grass Horses will be cheaper at market prices."

Miao Lixun sighed: "If you want to figure out the money, you can figure it out with a few people. But after you figure it out, you still have to send officials from the imperial court to buy it. The price is easy to calculate, but people's hearts are hard to calculate. Be tough, otherwise it will be easy to buy low-quality grain and grass.”

Pei Zhi's eyes were so bright that they seemed to shine. He leaned forward and leaned in front of Yin Yu: "Your Majesty, can you entrust me with this matter? I promise not to break the imperial court's purchasing rules, but I can still allow the imperial court to pay you 15 yuan." The price of two can buy enough food and grass."

"Can you guarantee it?" Yin Yuhu asked.

Pei Zhi smiled proudly: "I promise!"

Yin Yu found that Pei's character had changed.He just sleeps, and Pei Zhi is no longer the sweet and obedient little fairy he used to be.

Not only did he speak a lot tougher, he changed from "minister" to "I", and he stopped paying attention to him, holding an abacus every day, staring at the account book to calculate and calculate.

Two days ago, he even coaxed Pei Zhi into a circle by talking about the meal.Now Pei Zhi is completely out of his control, and he is so busy every day that he can't even see anyone.

If he hadn't eaten today and found that the food was half missing, and dressed tomorrow and found that the clothes had been embroidered, he would not have known that there was a queen in the palace.The queen began to manage the harem in an all-round way. As the emperor, his food and clothing costs were much lower than before, but it was good for the queen to be happy.

Listening to the palace servants telling how the empress had rectified the harem and how many palace servants who were greedy for money had been imprisoned, although the empress checked the accounts very strictly, their monthly bills had increased, and their food and clothing were better than before. He was both gratified and sad.

The little goblin is quite smart, she can distinguish her own people, she knows how to treat her own people badly, and she also knows how to win people's hearts, she is not stupid.

However, he actually still wants the little goblin who had nothing to do and only knew how to eat, drink and grow meat.

He also wanted to take some time to talk to Pei Zhi, saying that his prosopagnosia had been healed, and asking Pei Zhi what kind of goblin he was from.

But when Pei Zhi stood in front of him in a suit of common clothes, he silently choked back his words.

"See Your Majesty. Caomin is Hao Duojin, a businessman from Zhejiang Province. He does the cheap work of collecting things and reselling them everywhere. I heard that the imperial court needs grain, grass and horses, and I have them here. The grain and grass can be sold at a price of three taels lower than the market price per car." The price is sold to the imperial court, each horse can be [-] taels lower than the market price, and it is guaranteed to be the best war horse, what do you think?"

The veins on Yin Yu's forehead were about to burst.What the hell is Hao Duojin!If he hadn't recovered from his face blindness, he might be happy this time, thank God for giving him a big pie.

Although Hao Duojin's appearance is beneficial to the imperial court and solved a big problem for him, when anyone sees his lover with a fake beard and keeps saying that he is someone else and wants to do business with him, his heart will also be confused. It won't be good.

He just wanted to drag Pei Zhi back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, lock him up with an iron chain, and prevent him from being a demon again.

If you want to do business, you can, but can you just tell him?Or send someone else, why do you have to go into battle in person?

What surprised him the most was that Pei Yi, as Pei Zhi's elder brother, really only introduced Hao Duojin to him as a strange rich businessman.Could it be that Pei Yi's eyes became blind when Pei Zhi put on a beard?

"Your Majesty, if you are not at ease, you can find someone to inspect the goods first. Caomin has been in the business for more than 30 years and has always shown integrity." Hao Duojin stroked his goatee, very proud.

Yin Yu pretended to be drinking tea to hide her disagreement.If Pei Zhi went according to the age of the Pei family's children, he would only be in his early twenties. Where did he come from and have been in business for more than 30 years?

In this hall, the most dishonest person is Pei Zhi.

Seeing that His Majesty was not too satisfied, Pei Yi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I just found a wealthy businessman according to the order of the Empress. If Your Majesty is not satisfied, I will just go find him again."

Pei Zhi panicked, what he said was so nice, why are you still not satisfied?He worked hard for several days, embezzled a lot of money from Yin Yu and other palaces, and used it for food and grass. If Yin Yu didn't buy it, he would lose everything.

"Your Majesty, the price of Caomin is fair, and the food and grass are also high-quality. You can send ministers to the Caomin shop to have a look and make sure His Majesty is satisfied. Or do you have any doubts or requests?"

"Ai Qing has worked hard, let's go down first." Yin Yu didn't reply immediately, but sent Pei Yi out instead.

Pei Yi quickly walked out of the palace, and there was a carriage waiting for him at the gate of the palace.He stood under the palace gate, refusing to take a single step, and loudly reprimanded the groom: "Xu Wangbei, do you have any winks, why don't you rush over to the carriage and help me into it?"

Xu Wangbei was originally hiding in the carriage, but when he heard Pei Yi's shout, he wished he could fly over and cover his mouth.How many guards behind the palace gate used to be his subordinates. He has been reduced to this point. Can Pei Yi save him some face?

"Xu Wangbei, come here quickly!"

Xu Wangbei had no choice but to drive the carriage over.The guards at the gate of the palace didn't dare to look up when they saw him, they wanted to pretend they couldn't see him, so as to avoid embarrassment when meeting him in the future.After taking off the clothes of the guards, they are all nephews of an official, and they will have to deal with them in the future.

"My lord, please get in the car." Xu Wangbei muttered, "Will you die if you take two extra steps?"

"Yes. The boy rewarded by His Majesty, it is a pity that you don't need to die." Pei Yi slapped him on the buttocks. After being trained for two days, he immediately stretched out his hand subconsciously, and Pei Yi held his hand in satisfaction. got in the car.

Negotiations for Dong Nuange are still ongoing.

Yin Yu's old god was there, driving Pei Zhi into a panic.He offered such good terms before, obviously he sincerely wanted to do business with the imperial court, why Yin Yu didn't agree?

And Yin Yu looked at him strangely, as if he was looking at him for something?

If he hadn't known that Yin Yu had face blindness, he would have suspected that Yin Yu had recognized him.

Anyway, Yin Yu would definitely not recognize him, so why are you suspecting him?

Although Pei Zhi has some abilities of a wealthy businessman, in the face of absolute power, the weak status of a wealthy businessman means that he is destined to be on the passive side.

He praised himself a few more words, but he still didn't express his opinion when he saw Yin Yu.He simply bit the bullet and started to continue down the process.

"Your Majesty, the grassroots have wanted to do business with the imperial court for a long time. The merchants are humble, and the grassroots want to find a way out for future generations.
