I can't believe it, it's unbelievable.

"Why are there so many?" Qin Shangshu was also shocked, his face full of disbelief.

The empress also watched.

"Your Majesty." Wei Ge said, "In the past, not everyone could afford refined salt, but now that the price has been lowered, everyone can afford it. It is consumed every day and has revenue every day."

Wei Ge explained.

All officials understand.

Usually, people can't afford good salt, but mineral salt should be eaten sparingly, so as not to get seriously ill if you eat too much.

However, the price of refined salt has been greatly reduced. Everyone can afford high-quality refined salt, so they eat it every day.

"In this way, if it is 600%, it will be at least [-] million taels of silver a year...there will be more after that," said the empress.

"Your Majesty, that's right!" Wei Ge nodded.

The Empress stopped talking.

I don't want to give it away, can I take my life back and use it for alchemy?Can you, gentlemen?

and……

All the courtiers present were almost frozen.

600 million taels?too much?

It's a lot, but it's not much, 600 million taels can't buy the hereditary Marquis title, and 1000 million taels can't buy it either.

But for 600 million taels, none of the courtiers present could afford it, and most of those hateful merchants who were famous all over the world could not afford this shockingly huge amount of money.

To get this income, you only need to save it for a few years, and when the time comes, you will be rich like an enemy, it is not just empty talk.

He is not only a marquis, but also rich as an enemy.

The things contained in it are too terrifying, and they are too enviable to all officials.

Even some relatives of the emperor who have been in the court and stabilized the Diaoyutai, and the dukes and nobles, felt fluctuated for the first time, greedy, hot, and their eyes almost popped out.

Marry, must marry.

What, you said that Xiping Hou has been hated by His Majesty, and sooner or later he will be beheaded, he will be beheaded. He is dead, and the share cannot be lost. The silver is there, and the title is all right. If this guy does not rebel, no Murdering the emperor's relatives, killing nine clans and six clans, it's okay to scold His Majesty and so on, it's okay, it's okay to chop it off, it doesn't matter...

All the nobles, the prince, are all moved at this moment!

……

"Your Majesty, think twice..." Old Qin knelt, "This is a big matter, Your Majesty think twice. Six million taels is enough to feed the people and do many things? Your Majesty, think twice."

Qin Shangshu won the heart of the Empress, just as I thought.

The Empress looked at the reactions of the courtiers.

She also thinks it's too much...

"Qin Shangshu, do you want your Majesty to change the old imperial order?" Yu Shangshu took the lead in yelling: "Mu Shi said that he vomited blood, and this is what he deserves. He is not a minister. Your Majesty, please play it. Your Majesty will not send it again. Qin Shangshu's salary..."

"Is there any reason for this? I do my best for the court? Why don't I pay my salary?" Qin Shangshu was unhappy at the time, why?

"You can't even get the rewards Mu Shi talked about, so what kind of salary do you get?" Yu Shangshu said contemptuously.

"Your Majesty, although you set the rate at the beginning, you still have to divide the rewards. I think that [-]% is really too much." Old Qin ignored Yu Shangshu with an angry face.

"Your Majesty. Think twice." Many court officials couldn't sit still.

It is true that Xiping Hou has made great contributions and benefited the world, but he has taken too much, so many important officials in the dynasty can hardly sit still.

"Your Majesty, think twice, this matter needs a long-term plan."

The empress thought for a while, and said: "You think that this matter should be discussed in the long run?"

What this means is that I don't really want to give it away, and I want to take it back, do you think it's okay?And it's not that I don't want to give it, it's that the princes don't want to give it, everyone will take the blame, and the king will do it, that's what it means.

"Your Majesty, no." Yu Shangshu was the first to jump out.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the method of refining salt is made by the Marquis, and should be rewarded according to merit, so as not to chill the hearts of meritorious officials." Wei Ge said.

The Empress frowned slightly, and asked Wang Shoufu, "Wang Qing, what do you think?"

……

The overview of the next conversation in the court is equivalent to.

Empress: I don't want to give it away, I want to take it back. He has taken too much. If this continues, I will be the emperor, and I will be poorer than him in the end. How can I be decent?I take back my order, do you think it's okay?

Yu Shangshu: I don't think so.

Wei Ge: Your Majesty, no, your lack of money is your own business, and you can't take away the credit of others and hurt the heart of the hero.

Wang Shoufu: Your Majesty decides for himself, don't blame us, if you don't want to blame us, you can take the blame yourself and let the people talk.

Qin Shangshu: Alright, alright, Your Majesty shouldn’t give it. It’s best to put the money in the treasury for this Shangshu. This Shangshu will save a little hair loss and live a few more years.

Yu Shangshu: Old Qin, don't force yourself.

Baiguan: Your Majesty, we think we can give it, but it should be less, [-]% is too much, and it is better to use it to do something for the people.

Xungui: Your Majesty, there is no reason for it to be changed. What's more, Mu Shi said that he is now a member of our Xungui Group. His silver may be the silver of one of our families. He is a nobleman and a marquis. What are you doing? Can I give less?This is the benefit of our honorable group, and maybe it is the benefit of any royal relatives, relatives, princes and princes, so give less?No, we don't agree, unless His Majesty decrees not to let the daughter of our princess marry Mu Shidao, prevent marriage or something!

Xungui: Your Majesty, this is what Mushi should have deserved. You have to change it. Mu Shi’s dissatisfaction is second to none. .

Wei Ge: Your Majesty, no matter whether other people think it's okay for you to take back your life, anyway, I don't think so.

Qin Shangshu: Prepare to speak.

Yu Shangshu: Interrupted and scolded: Dog official, Mr. Mu vomited blood and made great contributions to Da Luo, and also relieved the pressure on the treasury. With the huge silver income, you bastard is ungrateful and chattering, but you don't know how many years can you keep your dog's head without Mrs. Mu?Sooner or later, the national treasury will be in a hurry, and His Majesty will punish your nine clans.

Qin Shangshu patted his black beard: Yes, the treasury will not be so short of money next year, why bother me?The old man owes Lord Hou a favor...

The Empress looked at Qin Shangshu:? ? ?Betrayed? ?

Qin Shangshu looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose: Your servant, you have rebelled.

……

The empress frowned: "This is a big matter, you should give it more consideration."

"Your Majesty." Wei Ge took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, if you give a reward or not, I'm afraid Hou Ye doesn't care. Hou Ye doesn't value things outside of him, so His Majesty doesn't want to give you a penny, and just give this reward casually." .”

Your Majesty, whatever you want, anyway, if you don't seal it, it's not us who lose, but Mu Hou, but what he says and does at that time, it's none of our business what you think of His Majesty!

The princes in the court were stunned, and they retreated in fear to advance.

The empress was also taken aback for a moment, and when she realized it, she was instantly enraged.

The hateful traitor Wei Ge.

What Wei Ge meant was, people don't care at all, you are a dignified ninety-five-year-old, arguing endlessly for the silver benefits that this family should have received?Reluctant to let it go, if it is passed to Mu Hou, I am afraid he will die laughing, and then criticize it severely, saying that your majesty is short-sighted and the king is so short-sighted and so on.

The Empress' face darkened little by little, and she had nothing good to say when she thought about it.

The empress thought for a while and said: "I will pass on my will to reward Muhou with [-]% of the salt and silver. There is no need to discuss this matter."

"Your Majesty is wise." Wei Ge and all the officials agreed after hearing the words.

After discussing about the affairs of various places, the emperor Liu Guogong, who has been an invisible person in the court all year round, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty."

"If you have something to say, please tell me." The empress said softly.

"Your Majesty, the old minister feels that it is inappropriate for Mu Hou to be a talented person who has fallen into the pillars of the pillars, and he has passed the marriageable age to have a son. I beg Your Majesty to marry me. My granddaughter is just right for Mu Hou. Your Majesty The gift of marriage just happened to make Mu Hou feel at ease, and the old minister felt that Bachelor Mu was very pleasing to the eye, like the son of the old minister's previous life. Try your best, Your Majesty can also save some troubles."

The Empress' face froze.

The son of the previous life?

Baiguan scolded in his heart, why don't you Tm, the son of the previous hundred lives, love you as an old man or an old fairy?Can the previous life still be involved?The greedy family doesn't care about their family background now, can they find a plausible reason? .

Chapter 33

"Your Majesty, please marry me."

As soon as Liu Guogong said this, the whole court was shocked, and all the nobles were shocked and angry, and they all cursed in their hearts, such a shameless thing.

shameless.

All the nobles were furious, they were still thinking, let their daughters, granddaughters and the like get in touch with each other more after they go back, and form a good relationship, but they didn't expect this old shameless thing to directly ask His Majesty to marry him? ? ?

Too shameless.

All the nobles cursed in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, I think it's inappropriate." Chang Ping Fu Yin, a third-rank official, took a step forward.

Just when the ministers thought he was going to say something to target Liu Guogong to destroy the matter, Fu Yin said: "Your Majesty, I feel that the little girl is good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has both talent and appearance. Give marriage."

The senior member of the court was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that his face darkened again.

Pooh.

All the nobles scolded again in their hearts.

Don't force yourself.

Fu Yin looked calm, the old god was there.

All the nobles couldn't sit still anymore, they didn't plan to let the fairy grass fly away, Mu Shi said it was the fairy grass, whoever got it would be able to prosper for generations, how could they release it?All of them are either asking for marriage, or destroying it. Anyway, I can't make it, and everyone can't make it. At least we have to keep hope.

"Your Majesty, my little girl has admired Shi Tao for a long time, and has a lover as a family..."

"Does Lord Mu know Miss Wang?" an official asked.

"His Majesty……"

The empress's face became colder and colder, and she was very angry.

Dog things are like me every day, you are rushing to send your daughter up, where will you put me?

I don't know that I don't like that rebellious minister.

Empress, the face is getting colder and colder, all the ministers feel that His Majesty is wrong, and soon dare not mention the marriage.

"If you have something to play, you will leave the court if you have nothing to do." The eunuch accompanying the court saw that the court hall was silent for a while, and then shouted.

At this time, all the officials were tired of standing and arguing, and seeing that the empress's face was not right, they didn't dare to say more and retreated.

When he was leaving the court, Liu Guogong took a look at the bureaucrats of his own faction, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty may have taken a fancy to Muhou, right?"

The latter's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said: "Duke, how can you gossip like this, but I guess, His Majesty is probably the one who hates waiting the most, that's why his face was so cold just now, he was angry with you. "

"That's right..." The latter nodded in agreement, and then said annoyedly: "In this case, it may not work to ask His Majesty for a marriage."

the latter:"……"

……

"Your Majesty..." From the depths of the cabinet in the emperor's bedroom, Gujing Wubo's soft voice came: "Your Majesty has been in a bad mood recently!"

"Ok!"

"Your Majesty, let's go out and relax. The Wenhui is approaching. You can practice Taoism every day and worry about court affairs, or you can follow one of the sources."

"Yuan is still him." The empress was out of anger, and after a while, she muttered something softly in her mouth, and quickly calmed down, saying: "The national teacher's words are reasonable, I just need to relax and adjust my mood."

……

"My lord... that girl has been kneeling outside for two days, and she won't leave even in the wind and rain." Mu Yu, who had slept for two days and one night, looked puzzled.

Confused, Mu Yu thought for a while, time travel so many years, Han Chuang studied hard and didn't ask about things outside the window, and after becoming an official, he didn't harm any girls from a good family, why did he hear such explosive news so soon after waking up.

In contrast, the person under the Hunjun sword did not cut off his head. This was unexpected, and it seemed to be expected, so it was not a problem.

"It's the daughter of Yu Shilang, Minister of the Ministry of War." Zuo Qingshang sat on the window, her slender and pretty figure reflected in the sunlight, infinitely beautiful.

"The daughter of the Minister of War?" Mu Yu was even more confused.

"My lord, have you forgotten? There were a few cruel officials who wanted to escort you to the northwest in advance. They were people sent by Yu Shilang, and they were sent to His Majesty by Wei's announcement. Yu Shilang was investigated by His Majesty in Dali Temple, and then sentenced to be beheaded by Qiuhou. All the men of the clan In the near future, the seal of slavery will be stamped, and the female relatives will be filled in the priest's office, and only the daughter of the servant of the Ministry of War is left in the Yu family, because of the emperor's grace, she is spared from this disaster."

"There is such a thing!" Several cruel officials Mu Yu remembered, but he did not expect to be the Minister of the Ministry of War.

"En!" Zuo Qingshang nodded.

Mu Yu was also quite speechless, he was so busy recently that he almost forgot about this matter, and he didn't expect to end up like this.
