my wife is mulan

As a princess, it is impossible for her to stay in the Charity Federation all day long, so she must have confidantes to manage it. After consideration, she brought a few maids from the palace to serve as the high-level staff of the Charity Federation. The families of ministers and officials try to bring in their wives or young ladies, and the specific staff of the Charity Federation are recruited from the private sector. The main targets are men and women from poor families, which can also solve some employment problems.

Hua Mulan arranged specific affairs for the five maids she brought out from the palace: "During my absence, Ding Xiang is in charge of the general affairs of the Charity Federation; Gui Xiang is in charge of financial custody and expenditure; Lan Xiang is in charge of personnel management and arrangement; He Xiang is in charge of The formulation, supervision and implementation of the club rules; Qingxiang is responsible for raising donations from the people!"

The five girls agreed: "Yes!"

Ding Xiang asked: "Your Majesty, where is the venue of the Charity Federation? This requires a big house!"

Hua Mulan thought for a while and said: "Every year, if a local official Gao is promoted to Beijing to take up his duties, the imperial court will grant a house to live in, so there must be a spare house in the Yamen. Ding Xiang, come with me to find the Yamen and persuade them to take the lead. Donate a set of houses as the venue of the Charity Federation. They are the court offices, so they must support the policies of the court, right? Others will be responsible for their own affairs. Once the venue of the Charity Federation is determined, you will be responsible for your own affairs It should come in handy immediately!"

"Yes!" The girls agreed, and each of them split up.

Hua Mulan took Lilac to the Ministry of Industry in a carriage. Shang Wuda of the Ministry of Industry heard that Hua Mulan was coming, and was so surprised that he immediately brought the officials of the Ministry of Industry out to greet him.

From a distance, Wu Da could be seen wearing a white-washed official robe and leading the officials to greet him. Ding Xiang said in a low voice, "Mother, this Wu Da is also a fashionista, why is he dressed like this?" simple?"

Hua Mulan said in a low voice: "This Wu Da is one of the officials who followed the king at the beginning. He used to be a cowherd boy who only listened outside the private school for a few years. When the king was the captain of the Jinling camp, he was The history of the warehouse at that time. This person is very picky, you can tell by looking at his clothes, this clothes would not be worn out to meet guests in the farmhouse, but he came to the yamen to be on duty in the clothes, which shows how much this person is He is a stingy man, he is a veritable iron cock, trying to get something out of his hand is harder than going to heaven!"

Ding Xiang was a little worried: "Hearing what your mother said, the little servant girl has no idea, how can I get him to donate a house?"

"I can only take one step at a time!"

the two were whispering

During the conversation, Wu Da led the officials of the Ministry of Industry and came over to bow to the ground, "Your Majesty is here at the Ministry of Industry. It is a great honor for my minister Wu Da and my colleagues in the Ministry of Industry. Please forgive me for being late in welcoming you!"

All the officials said in unison: "Congratulations, Madam!"

Hua Mulan raised her hand and said with a smile: "Wu Shang and everyone are welcome, I am here to discuss something with Wu Shang and you today!"

"Why do you need the empress to visit in person? Send someone to tell me, and I will attack and see Fengjia immediately!"

"Since the empress is here, please go to the Ministry of Industry and discuss it in detail!" Wu Da bent over and stepped aside, and all the officials also retreated to the side to let Hua Mulan and others go first.

Hua Mulan nodded, and led Ding Xiang and several maids and guards into the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry. Wu Da and the officials followed and led the way in person.

When they arrived at the class lobby of the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, Hua Mulan was invited to sit at the head seat, and the others sat on both sides.

Hua Mulan said to Wu Da and all the officials: "My Majesty said at the court meeting a few days ago that he would build a charity association and build orphanages and nursing homes in various places to raise orphans and support the elderly. Wu Shang and all the officials must have known it. As the ambassador of the Charity Federation, to prepare for the establishment of the Charity Federation, there is still a lack of a house as the venue of the Charity Federation, I wonder if the Ministry of Industry can donate one?"

Chapter 690 Compromise

The officials all looked at Wu Da. After all, he is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he has the final say on the affairs of the Ministry of Industry. Even if someone wants to curry favor with Hua Mulan, if he is his master in front of Wu Da, it is a fight. Wu Da's face lit up.

Wu Da pondered for a while, stood up and bowed to Hua Mulan and said, "Mother, Your Majesty wants to build a charity association, build orphanages and nursing homes in various places to raise orphans and support the elderly. This is a great thing. I was an orphan when I was a child. How difficult it is to survive in this world, if two or three out of ten can survive to adulthood, it is a gift from God!"

"Your Majesty came here in person. I should have given you my full support. I also wanted to donate a house to speed up the construction of the site of the Charity Federation, but... to tell you the truth, the Ministry of Industry does have more than a dozen houses. , but these houses are not privately owned by the minister, but public property, and the minister cannot decide to donate one of them to the Charity Federation!"

Hua Mulan knew that it was not easy to get something out of Wu Da's hands, but she didn't expect this guy to refuse it straight away. Although he didn't explicitly refuse, he meant it.

Hua Mulan was also angry, she went to the Ministry of Industry in person, and even begged for alms, but Wu Da didn't know what was good and put her face away, how could this make her feel embarrassed?

However, although Wu Da is the Shang of the Ministry of Industry, he can't cover the sky with one hand. Seeing that Hua Mulan's expression was wrong, Huang Zhan, the left servant, thought that this was an opportunity to get closer to Hua Mulan. He stood up and said, "Wu Shang is here. I would disagree with the officials, those houses are indeed public property, and you, Wu Shang, do not have the right to donate one of the houses to the Charity Federation, but now that the officials from the Ministry of Industry are here, you adults can discuss it together It is already a great honor for the empress to go there in person, but Wu Shang refuses immediately, what is the meaning of this?"

Hua Mulan quickly said: "Everyone, I am here to solicit donations today, not to invite you as a princess to donate a house. Since it is a donation, it is naturally based on the principle of voluntariness. I will never force you to donate a house. !Since the Ministry of Industry has no intention of collecting donations, I will leave first!"

Huang Zhan, the left servant, immediately cupped his hands and said, "Major, please wait for a while, Rong Chen will discuss with you, how about it?"

Other officials also felt that it was not good to just let Hua Mulan go. This is the empress of the main palace, and there is only such an empress in the palace at present. Can you bear it?

So several officials also stood up and said: "Yes, please wait a moment, my lady, and I will discuss it with you!"

Someone even yelled outside: "Come here, serve tea to the empress!"

Hua Mulan thought about it and agreed, "Alright!"

Huang Zhan immediately said: "My lords, your majesty thinks about the orphans and elderly people in the world. He wants to build a charity association and build orphanages and nursing homes in various places to support and support the elderly. It is really benevolent. The empress also personally acts as a charity ambassador to benefit the world. This is the blessing of the people in the world, and we as ministers only have full support. How can we get in the way? I said that we should have the money to contribute, and the powerful should contribute. Now I am The Ministry of Industry has a vacant house, so what if we donate a set to the Charity Federation as the venue? Who can say? We are not using public property for private use, but doing our part for the people of the world. It is a great deed ah!"

Yu Dongliang, a doctor of the Ministry of Industry, stood up and said: "The lower officials think what Huang Shilang said is true. This is a great thing that the whole world should support. How can our Ministry of Industry be left behind? The lower officials agreed to donate a house as a gift. The venue of the Charity Federation!"

Yuanwailang Wu Yutang also stood up and said, "Your official agrees!"

Immediately, several other officials stood up: "Second!"

Wu Da was a little anxious. Looking at this posture, these people all support donating a house to the Charity Federation as the venue. Wouldn't he be isolated?This is very bad. In this way, he will leave a very bad influence on Hua Mulan, and everyone else has intentions. If he disagrees, doesn't it mean that Wu Da intends to marry the princess? Damn right?

Wu Da's mind was spinning quickly. If he changed his mind and agreed at this time, he would slap himself in the face again, and the government and the public would think that he was afraid of Hua Mulan's identity and power, and some people would definitely think that he was a capricious person. , can't stick to one's own principles, which is harmful to

It will be detrimental to his official career.

At this time, almost all the officials from the Ministry of Industry agreed, and everyone looked at him to see what he had to say?

The servant Huang Zhan felt a little proud. This time, he put Wu Da, the leader, on the fire. Let's see how he resolves the current embarrassing situation. I watched the play.

At this time, Wu Da cupped his hands and said to Hua Mulan: "My lady, it is true that the house cannot be donated to the Charity Federation. Although the land deed is in the hands of the Ministry of Industry, its ownership is owned by the imperial court after all, and the Ministry of Industry cannot donate it to the charity without authorization." Charity Federation!"

Many officials heard Wu Da say this, and they all had a premonition that Hua Mulan was about to lose her temper. After all, everyone knew her temper. Several officials who had a quarrel with Wu Da looked at Wu Da coldly, to see how he would be repaired by Hua Mulan. .

Hua Mulan's face was also very ugly at this time. Almost all the officials of the Ministry of Industry agreed, but Wu Da disagreed. Who did he think he was?Isn't this trying to make things difficult for her?

She was about to have a fit when Wu Da said, "However, although the Ministry of Industry can't donate the house, it can rent it to the Charity Federation. In order to show our Ministry of Industry's support for this matter, the Ministry of Industry will never collect rent." , you can also renovate the house until the Charity Federation moves the venue, and then the Ministry of Industry can take back the house, I wonder if the empress is satisfied?"

Hua Mulan was about to throw a tantrum, but after hearing Wu Da's words, she couldn't get angry anyway, so she suppressed it abruptly.

Hua Mulan took a deep breath, then smiled and said, "Wu Shang still understands righteousness, I am very relieved! Lilac."

Ding Xiang stepped forward to be a blessing: "The servant is here!"

Hua Mulan introduced to Wu Da and the officials of the Ministry of Industry: "Her name is Ding Xiang. She has served the palace for many years. She is the Shang Palace next to the palace. She is quite shrewd. Go to the Charity Federation, so most of the affairs of the Charity Federation have to be done by the people below. Ding Xiang is the deputy appointed by Ben Gong. During the absence of Ben Gong, she will be in charge of the affairs of the Charity Federation, so I will invite you all in the future Give her a lot of support!"

Wu Da, Huang Zhan and other officials from the Ministry of Industry all agreed, and Huang Zhan patted his chest and said, "If Ding Shanggong needs something, please come to the Ministry of Industry to find Huang!"

"Thank you so much, Mr. Huang!"

"Cough!" Wu Da coughed twice, and said to Yu Dongliang, a doctor of the Ministry of Industry, "Mr. Yu, go and handle the official documents related to the lease for Ding Shanggong!"

"Obey!" Yu Dongliang agreed, and said to Ding Xiang: "Please Ding Shanggong come with me!"

A moment later, Hua Mulan left the Ministry of Industry with Ding Xiang and official documents, and Ding Xiang not only took the official lease documents, but also the key to the house.

On the way back, Ding Xiang said: "Madam, I didn't expect this Wu Da to be really difficult. All the officials agreed, and he still insisted on not donating. He said that he would rent it to us without charging rent. Fortunately, he figured it out!"

Hua Mulan said with a smile: "In the end, I guess he was forced to have no choice but to choose this way to rent the house to us. Now you know how powerful he is? Be careful when dealing with him in the future!"

"Hmph, I'd rather not deal with this kind of person!"

"Then you are wrong. There will be more time to deal with the Ministry of Industry in the future. For example, if the house is damaged due to disrepair, it will definitely cost a lot if the charity association pays for it. But if the Ministry of Industry sends craftsmen to help It can save a lot of money, anyway, the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry don’t have something to do every day, they are idle when they are idle, so don’t waste too much!”

Ding Xiang said: "Mother, according to me, people like Wu Da should not be allowed to be ministers of industry, but should be allowed to manage the national treasury. People like him manage the national treasury. The money and food in the treasury can only go in but not out. If it doesn't last ten years, I will give it to you." A dry country will be rich and the world will be the most powerful country in the world!"
