All my subjects want to usurp the throne

Chapter 283 Could this money be ill-gotten gains?
On the other side, Jing Jing was talking to Yuan Shao at this time.

"Prime Minister, thank you for your hard work this time!"

Regarding this matter, Yuan Shao quickly waved his hands.

"Your Majesty, what's so hard for me? Now it's my honor that Your Majesty is willing to trust me. Yesterday, when I received the letter, I raised money and food everywhere."

When Ling Xiao heard this, he was a little puzzled for a while.

So he asked: "Prime Minister, is it the silver taels you collected this time?"

Yuan Shao nodded.

"In this letter, I didn't say that you can use the money from the treasury. After all, this matter is not your business alone. It must be difficult to collect money!"

After Yuan Shao heard this, he smiled and said: "Your Majesty does not know, although His Majesty asked me to use the silver taels from the treasury, but I thought about it, the silver taels will be of great use at that time. It should be supported by all directions, so at this time I will run to a few more mansions to collect some money from a few adults."

Speaking of this, he continued: "However, this tael is nothing. It is probably more than enough to save the people of Sanhe County from fire and water this time."

Ling Xiao was touched for a while when he heard this. In fact, he thought that Yuan Shao would definitely spend money from the treasury. After all, this matter had nothing to do with him in the first place, and he also mentioned it in the letter.

But Yuan Shao didn't do this, leaving Ling Xiao speechless for a moment.

When Yuan Shao saw Ling Xiao's appearance, he asked him, "Your Majesty, don't you believe it?"

"Prime Minister, of course that's not the case, but the Prime Minister has really worked hard for you this time. You have come so far from the capital, you must have worked hard all the way!"

"Your Majesty, what's so hard about it? Nowadays, the people in Sanhe County can't even eat. This is hard work."

Ling Xiao nodded after hearing Yuan Shao's words.

Maybe what Yuan Shao said last time during the Lantern Festival was true, but Yuan Shao is actually a pretty good person?

It's just that the things I did before were indeed a little too much, but knowing the mistakes can be corrected, and there is nothing good about it!

Ling Xiao was also willing to give him a chance, at this time Zhang Sanfeng walked over leisurely.

He glanced at Yuan Shao first, but didn't speak to him.

When Yuan Shao saw this, he seemed to feel something was wrong, and he frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty, who is this?"

It was only at this time that Ling Xiao realized that he hadn't introduced them to them yet.

So he pointed to Zhang Sanfang and said, "This is Zhang Sanfang, the county magistrate of Sanhe County."

Then he pointed at Yuan Shao and said, "This is Yuan Shao, Prime Minister of the Qi Dynasty."

When Ling Xiao said this, he deliberately inquired about Zhang Sanfang's expression at this time.

He has not forgotten what happened before.

Zhang Sanfang was very repelled by Yuan Shao's arrival, and he didn't know if he could work with him in the future.

When Yuan Shao saw this, he took a deep look at him at this time, but he didn't expect that the county magistrate would be rude when he saw him.

Although Yuan Shao is a thief in the eyes of others, he attaches great importance to etiquette.

So he asked him: "Magistrate Zhang, why don't you be polite when you see me? Now I am the prime minister of the Daqi Dynasty. This official position is above you. It stands to reason that you have to bow to me."

At this time, Zhang Sanfang snorted coldly.

"It doesn't matter if you are the Prime Minister, but I will only salute anyone I admire."

Yuan Shao turned pale with anger when he heard this, so he pointed at him and said, Yuan Shao is nothing in the eyes of these three parties?
Now he is still a prime minister, although his career has indeed been somewhat unsatisfactory recently.

But now this little county magistrate actually rode on his head, just when Yuan Shao was about to explode, Ling Xiao coughed lightly at this moment.

Then he said to the two of them: "Okay, now, the most urgent thing is to think about the disaster situation in Sanhe County. The common people can't even eat. Is it possible that you two are going to fight in front of me?"

When Yuan Shao said this, his tone was very serious, and the two of them calmed down after hearing this.

Because what Ling Xiao said was right, Yuan Shao came all the way this time, wasn't it just for the people of Sanhe County?

Along the way, he also saw that Sanhe County is indeed not as prosperous as the capital, and even worlds apart.

But it was precisely because of this that it gave them a visual impact. This time they had to let the people of Sanhe County get out of the predicament no matter what!

And Yuan Shao glanced at County Magistrate Zhang at this time, and he didn't intend to argue with him, after all, His Majesty could also speak.

Seeing this, Zhang Sanfang expressed displeasure all over his face.

But at this time, the master who was standing aside tugged at his sleeve, and then kept winking at him.

As for the master's meaning, he naturally knew it, and at this time, most of his anger was gone.

Immediately afterwards, he saw Yuan Shao coming to the carriage beside him before, and then opened the boxes on the carriage one by one.

When they saw it, they were stunned for a moment, because it really contained white silver taels.

Ling Xiao was also a little surprised. He had just heard that Yuan Shao had collected the money himself.

However, he did not expect that Yuan Shao had such ability. The amount of money did not surprise him.

So he asked: "Prime Minister, how did you manage to raise so much money?"

When Yuan Shaoshao heard this, he stroked his beard at this time, and then said to Ling Xiao with a complacent look.

"Your Majesty doesn't know something. I had a few close contacts in the court before. He knew a few merchants in the capital, so he asked those people to take out the silver taels."

After hearing what he said, Ling Xiao couldn't believe it. These businessmen are the most treacherous nowadays.

He never even thought about the common people. If he was convinced that these people gave out so much money, Ling Xiao would never believe it.

Even Zhang Sanfeng, who was standing aside, thought this was ridiculous, but looking at these silver coins, he couldn't help but feel that maybe they were Yuan Shao's ill-gotten gains.

At this time, Zhang Sanfang opened his mouth and said: "I tell you, Prime Minister, now our Sanhe County has simple folk customs, so the people are in dire straits and dire straits. But let the people know that this money is hard-earned, and I am afraid they will not accept the sanctions." of."

Zhang Sanfang spoke loudly and forcefully at this time, and the master next to him wanted to stop him.

But it was already too late, the master was a little helpless for a while, he, the county master, really said everything now.

When Yuan Shao heard his words, he ignored them.

Immediately afterwards, he opened the few stones of grain in front of them. When Zhang Sanfang saw this, he was able to salivate a little, so he didn't say any more unpleasant words.
