Chapter 61 The Golden Palace Inspects Birds
In the living room of the Liu family, the chief manager Zeng Hai looked at Qi Yun with a pitiful face.
"Mrs. Huguo, you have pity on us, don't embarrass us, Your Majesty really has something very urgent to summon Dingguo Gong, you just tell us, where did Dingguo Gong go?"
"I haven't been to court for a few months, whether I am resting at home, or going to a distant place, there must be a place!"
Qi Yun is the chaste lady who was personally rewarded by Li Zheng for protecting the country, although Li Zheng has passed away, but the title of the wife is here, even if it is Zeng Hai, the head of the inner house, he does not dare to hold a shelf in front of Qi Yun.
Otherwise, once it is spread out and the imperial historian is put on the line, he will participate in the charge of contempt for the first emperor, and his position as the head of the inner department will be done.
Zeng Hai knew better than anyone that the few big eunuchs in the palace who saw him respectfully were eager to take their place and take their place.
He is not an ancestor, and he can give up the position of the chief manager without any nostalgia to guard the spirit of the first emperor.
How many years has the ancestor been sitting, how long has he been sitting, and he hasn't enjoyed enough of this majestic seat, how can he cheapen others.
Therefore, even if Liu Dashao is not there, Zeng Hai can only laugh happily in front of Qi Yun.
His Majesty's fancy for Dingguo Gong, how can others not know that Zeng Hai is the personal chief manager.
If you haven't been kicked by a donkey, why can't you think about going against others.
Even if you don't talk about Dingguogong, Mrs. Huguo Yipin is not a mere internal manager who can be underestimated.
Qi Yun looked at Zeng Hai helplessly: "Boss, it's not that the courtiers want to embarrass you, the courtiers really don't know where the husband has gone." ”
"A few months ago, my husband changed his clothes, went out with his baggage, and no one else knew where he went except for my husband!"
The courtiers dared to ask, what happened to Your Majesty summoning her husband in such a hurry? After you tell the courtier, I will immediately arrange for someone to find the husband and tell him the reason! ”
"Only when you know that the matter is urgent, will the husband rush back quickly!"
Zeng Hai hesitated for a moment, looking at the few maids standing around Qi Yun with expressions that wanted to speak and stopped.
Qi Yun immediately comprehended it and waved his hand at a few maids: "You guys retreat first!" ”
"Yes, young lady!"
After a few maids left, Zeng Hai sighed.
"Now that we're here, let's not hide it from Mrs. Protector!"
"Now that the spring tax is about to be collected from the state treasury, the household department has already been ordered to start issuing notices to the state capitals in various places, and all the state capitals and county governments in Dalong Prefecture must hand over the tax revenue to the state treasury within three months!"
"But now it's been two months, there are still more than 30 prefectures, more than 170 prefectures and counties have not yet handed over the tax revenue, and there is a big gap in the treasury that needs to be filled."
"All the officials who have been urged by the household department have been distributed, but so far only seven governments have just paid their taxes!"
"Your Majesty, there are still household officials, officials and officials are anxious!"
"You must know that the north is about to leave, and a large number of silver, grain and grass will go out like flowing water, once there is a problem in the treasury, the whole dragon will be turbulent for this."
"The Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War is under the name of Dingguo Gong, the auxiliary minister, and such a major event in the Household Department is beyond the scope of Jiang Shangshu's disposal, and it must be done by Dingguo Gong."
"His Majesty the other four auxiliary ministers, Shangshu, want to temporarily supervise the affairs of the household department on behalf of Dingguo Gong, but Jiang Shangshu does not recognize any of the other four auxiliary ministers except for Dingguo Gong!"
"Your Majesty's will Jiang Shangshu didn't dare to refuse, but Your Majesty has just ascended the throne and has never encountered such a major thing! I don't know how to deal with it perfectly! ”
"I thought of a few ways to go back, but Jiang Shangshu persuaded me to go back with reason!"
"The orders of the other four auxiliary ministers have all been shelved by Jiang Shangshu, and Your Majesty has no good way to do it, so he can only pass it on to the Dingguo Gong to go to court!"
"Mrs. Protector, we are not alarmist, once the taxes cannot be paid on time, there will be a problem of salary and silver in the northern expedition in the future, the supply of grain and grass will not be available, and it will be difficult to support the follow-up!"
"All the millions of soldiers in the Great Dragon who went north are in crisis!"
"It can be said that this matter has reached the time when it is a matter of national body!"
"Your Majesty has discussed with the other four auxiliary ministers and the six Shangshu Imperial Study, and they have already planned to activate the emergency treasury of the state capitals in various places, and first fill the hole in the treasury!"
"You know, the first emperor has been in power for decades, and my Dalong has only used the emergency treasury twice, and His Majesty has just ascended the throne now to make an emergency, and if it is spread, His Majesty's reputation among the people will be greatly affected!"
"That's why Your Majesty is in such a hurry to summon the Duke of Dingguo into the palace!"
"Let's see if there is a way for Dingguo Gong to deal with the tax matter!"
"The most important thing is to find out why these more than 30 mansions have not paid their taxes for a long time, and what happened!"
"Although Jiang Shangshu is dealing with this matter now, he can't leave at all, and it's hard for his hands to do anything in the world!"
"If Dingguo Gong doesn't go to court again, there will be chaos in the court!"
Qi Yun listened to Zeng Hai's words and knew that the matter had reached a situation of great urgency.
But it's not that she doesn't want to tell Zeng Hai where Fujun went, but she really doesn't know where Fujun went.
The approximate direction is only known to be in the grassland, and the sheep and horses have already explained the approximate direction of Yun Xiaoxi.
But the grassland is so big, how did Qi Yun know where her husband went.
"Governor, is there a problem with the grain in the state capitals in various places, resulting in the inability to pay the taxes on time?"
"Your Majesty and Jiang Shangshu thought about this issue at first, but the twists and turns of the state capitals in various places are all bumper harvests, since it is a bumper harvest, there should be no way to pay taxes!"
"The Ouchi guards are already on the way to investigate, and there should be a result in less than two days!"
Qi Yun pondered for a moment: "Could it be that the officials of the state capitals in various places concealed the situation of the grain in order to show their political achievements?" ”
"I don't rule out this possibility, the matter of going north is still in the secret discussion of several important ministers, and the news has never come out, after all, the officials of the state capitals in various places don't know that His Majesty intends to go north this year, let alone think that the tax payment is so urgent!"
"If you really show your political achievements, bully Your Majesty at a young age, and conceal the production matter, it will be a big trouble!"
"It's useless to raid their homes and exterminate their families, and the military aircraft can't be delayed!"
Qi Yun'e frowned and looked at Zeng Hai: "Chief Administrator, the courtiers understand, and they will definitely send someone to find her husband immediately, inform him of this matter, and let him return to Beijing as soon as possible!" ”
Zeng Hai looked at Qi Yun in disappointment: "Is Dingguo Gong really no longer in the house?" ”
Qi Yun nodded solemnly: "It's really not here, the situation is serious, and the courtiers don't dare to joke about this matter if they have a few heads!" ”
"Okay, let's go back and report to Your Majesty first, and see if we can hold it for the time being!"
"Mrs. Lao quickly informed Dingguo that the court was returned! Let's take our leave! ”
"The courtiers send the chief ........."
"Madame, stay and take your leave!"
Qi Yun looked at Zeng Hai's departing figure and seemed to think of something, and his eyes lit up: "Wait, boss!" ”
Zeng Hai hurriedly turned around and looked at Qi Yun expectantly: "Madame, but you thought of where Dingguo Gong went?" ”
"No, the courtier's wife remembered that when her husband left, she left a bag of tips, saying that if something happens, she will open it!"
Zeng Hai looked at Qi Yun in surprise: "Great, Mrs. Lao has taken the tips!" ”
"Wait a minute, the chief manager, the woman will go and fetch it!"
A moment later, Qi Yun trotted out with a piece of rice paper in his hand.
"There is a way, the husband said that once there is a change in taxes, you can capture the birds in various places to verify whether the state capitals are true, whether they show their political achievements, and whitewash the peace!"
"As long as the Golden Palace examines the birds, the truth will be clear!"
Zeng Hai looked at Qi Yun blankly, his face was a little sad: "Test ...... What to test? ”
Qi Yun was stunned, glared at Zeng Hai, and threw the rice paper to Zeng Hai.
"Present it to Your Majesty, and he will understand!"
