After crossing the road

Affected by the floods caused by the Snake Disaster, some parts of Yushen Kingdom still suffered from crop failures.The emperor ordered all places to make preparations for opening warehouses and releasing grain.

Many years ago, there was also a big locust plague in Yushen Kingdom. The locusts even gnawed away the turf and bark, and the people's farmland had no harvest. Since it was after the war, many people still starved to death.The child ghost in Liu Hanxi Banner died of starvation at that time.

Since then, Chu Tianyu has paid special attention to stockpiling food, and there is no problem at all in Tiandu. Because of Liu Hanxi, the people have enough food and oil, mainly in other cities.

The Ministry of Households checked the population and food surplus in various places, and made adjustments. It might be more appropriate to suggest that Chu Tianyu buy some more.There is a million taels missing in the new Household Department Shangshu's warehouse, and because of the 100 million taels, several members of the household department have been imprisoned. It is really difficult for him to take over such a mess.

"Then buy it." Chu Tianyu replied happily.

You can buy it!money!The next year's tax has not yet been collected, floods and landslides in various places have cost a lot of money, and the head of the household department is very big.Seeing his troubled expression, Chu Tianyu probably understood what he meant.He looked at King De, King Zheng, King Yan, King Cheng, and King Yu standing at His Highness.

"Father, I'll arrange to raise some money." King Yan saw that King De, King Zheng, and King Cheng didn't respond, he just lowered his head, glanced at King Jin, and stood up.

This is the most thankless thing, and it is estimated that it will offend all the rich and powerful merchants in Tiandu.So those few did not stand up.If it's something else easy to do, I'm afraid it will be a fight.

King Yan Chu Munan set up a remote courtyard in the household department to accept donations, but after the notice was posted, there were very few people willing to donate.Hua Qingkong was also there at this time, and the two were discussing what to do next.Chu Munan was full of arrogance and prepared to use tough measures, but Hua Qingkong felt it was inappropriate.

People outside the hospital reported that someone had sent silver.

The two got up and went out, and saw that someone had already entered the yard, who else could have said that voice, it was his wife Liu Hanxi.

"The concubine has met King Yan," Liu Hanxi saluted, "so my prince is here."

"What about my business?!" Hua Qingkong said coldly, he knew she would not stay at home for more than three days.

"Isn't there a business, I'll be back in a while." Liu Hanxi smiled.

"Madam Xi, what is this?" Chu Munan asked while looking at the box that was still moving in.

"The first two boxes are silver bills, and I'm 'overjoyed'. The profit of this store has promised to be used by the father for charity, so I have taken them all now; these five boxes are from the prince's property. The cash that I took out; the last three boxes are the cash in my dowry, and the rest will be exchanged for taels of silver and then delivered.” Liu Hanxi replied.

Chu Munan was full of surprise, he turned to Hua Qingkong and said, "Here, Qingfeng, why didn't you tell me?"

"I don't know! Xi'er is all in the house. I don't know how many properties and how much silver. I was planning to go back to discuss with her, and she just sent it." Hua Qingkong answered honestly.

"Why even the dowry... I dare not accept it..." Chu Munan was usually serious, but now he had a smile on his face.

"Now that the country is in trouble, you can use whatever you keep. Oh, and this," Liu Hanxi took the small wooden box held by the flowing sand behind him and put it on top of the big box, "This is my When I was injured, my father counted the things for me to play with, and I got tired of counting them, so I gave them all to you."

Hua Qingkong knew that this was Liu Hanxi's baby, so he couldn't count it, he had to count it every day before he could sleep.

"Hurry up, come here, make an account of the silver sent by Mrs. Wang Wang and store it properly." Chu Munan then saluted Liu Hanxi, "Thank you so much, Madam."

"I've listed all the numbers here," Liu Hanxi said, and Lou Fengzhi came up to present the ledger, "It's a total of 25 taels, you can just let them check it, and then send some people, it may be busy in a while .”

Sure enough, before the words were finished, another person came to report, and another person came to give money.

Liu Hanxi smiled and stood beside Hua Qingkong.

Chu Munan immediately arranged for someone to come over, first put the ones sent by Liu Hanxi into the warehouse, and clear out the yard.

Mrs. Shangshuling came first, and she said: "Master Shangshuling of my family has been clean and honest all his life. He is devoted to state affairs and has no property. His salary is just enough for the family to eat and wear. He has to save it, so he really can't afford it." What is it? Fortunately, my father left some for me, and this box is also my dowry, a total of 2 taels."

Next came Princess Yi.She said: "My prince, alas, let's not talk about him. This is my dowry, a total of 5000 taels."

Chu Munan could only salute one by one.

"My lord, I'm here too." It was Princess Yan Bai Yuying who came, and she saluted with a smile, "My lord, madam."

"Ying'er, are you here to donate the dowry too?" Chu Munan asked in surprise.

"Exactly." Bai Yuying asked the servants to bring two boxes over: "This is what my father left me for urgent use when I got married. Isn't it the time for urgent use now?"

Mrs. Yanwang is the princess of Xiyu Kingdom, a small country.

"Why did the concubine and wives all come to see you off today?" Chu Munan asked curiously, and saw Bai Yuying looking at Liu Hanxi with a smile.

"These are all members of our 'Goddess Group'. I just called out to the group members. Unexpectedly, everyone is quite enthusiastic." Liu Hanxi smiled.

"You said that we may not be able to do it for the country, but we can do some things. Just take out some silver like this, and we can do it." Bai Yuying replied.

"I want to ask, ma'am, is there any rice in the house tonight?" Hua Qingkong joked.

"Oh, my lord has finally taken care of the palace. He always thought that everyone can live by eating dew like him." Liu Hanxi replied immediately.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

As soon as this matter got out, the dignitaries began to feel restless.A group of people had been waiting and watching. If everyone didn't give Yan Wang face, then if they jumped out at this time, they must be on the wrong team.

But now it is completely different, at least King Yi, King Jin, and Shang Shuling are on the same line as King Yan.Those who didn't like King De had already started to fall on King Yan's side.

Then, donating money is the best way to support Yan Wang.

Hua Qingkong asked Liu Hanxi: "Why did you do this?"

"For the country! We are royals! The emperor's father is so kind to me." Liu Hanxi replied.

"I don't believe it, your brain with eight turns." Hua Qingkong laughed at her.

"You support King Yan, and I support you. This is a good opportunity to win the hearts of the people and see the people around you clearly. There must be someone with ulterior motives in King Xuan's accident. This time, King Yan will be able to block the sword for you, otherwise the sword will cut you someday My heart aches." Liu Hanxi replied.

"I knew it! Everything you do is not that simple. Do you have eyes in the back of your head? How do you know that I support Yan Wang?" Hua Qingkong exclaimed.

"Since I know it, others will know it too. Now you two are grasshoppers on the same rope." Liu Hanxi didn't answer directly.

"The person behind this scene may be..." Hua Qingkong hesitated.

"That nest of bad water." Liu Hanxi nodded at him, and the two looked at each other, knowing that they thought of the same group of people.
