So today the court and last month mentioned the matter of asking the Ministry of Households to transfer the money, and the rest of the officials are waiting to watch the excitement, see if the two are facing each other, whether the empress is facing Mrs. Xie, or her aunt.

So as soon as Yueli finished his statement, Qi Ze stood up solemnly and said: "Your Highness, the household department is very difficult now. This month's salary and silver ministers have just been collected. If the household department is really asked to pay the money, then the minister will be fine." I can only take the salary first." The faces of the other officials froze when they heard this, and this old fox actually caused trouble.

Feng Qiyue smiled and said: "Qi Aiqing, there is no need to move the salary, let's embezzle some money from other places first."

After listening to the princess, Qi Ze said in a calm manner: "Your Highness, the money in every place has been used, and the other four departments are also waiting for the money to be dispatched. If they are willing to wait a little longer, I can also send the money first." Spend it."

The faces of the four ministers turned green. It took them a long time to grind the money. If it was paid to the Ministry of Industry at this time, they would not be sure when they would get the money again.Immediately, some people lost their temper and looked at Yan Mu carelessly. If it comes to money, this person should pay the most.

It is said that ever since Yan Mu fell out with Zhou, the power of the gentry has been divided into two factions, Zhou and Yan. There are many conflicts between the two factions. Now that this opportunity is seized, Zhou Si, Minister of the Ministry of War, stood up and said, "Your Highness, the money of the Ministry of War can't be moved." , now that the weather is getting colder, and the soldiers in the barracks have not yet got their cotton coats, if the money from the Ministry of War cannot be allocated, countless soldiers will be killed and injured this winter. I am really heartbroken." Someone started, and the rest of the books also One after another talked about their own difficulties, and the court was full of excitement.

Feng Qiyue gently buckled the chair and sat down, and everyone fell silent instantly.

Zhou Si said again: "Your Highness, if you want to talk about the money, the Yan family has always been rich and powerful, and now Mr. Ji, the prime minister of Yan, is serving as the left servant in the Ministry of Industry. Why is this matter brought to the court? Master Xie should go to Yan directly. It's right to ask for money." The officials of Yan Mu's faction showed dissatisfaction on their faces.

Yan Mu stood up at this time and said: "Your Highness, I have already planned to send a sum of money to the Ministry of Industry, but it has not come yet, and I don't know that Mr. Xie is so fast. He has already arranged for craftsmen to start making tools. Wait for the next court." Afterwards, the minister ordered people to send the silver to the Ministry of Industry."

Now that Yan Mu said so, Feng Qiyue took advantage of the opportunity to praise Yan Mu and agreed.

Yueli hadn't added anything since everyone started arguing, and now he was speechless after hearing Yan Mu's words. The craftsman's labor costs a total of one or two hundred taels of silver. Called, why did I meet such a stingy old fox who didn't think it was a big deal, and he planned to make troubles, and even led the Ministry of Industry to offend people inside and out, and blamed Yueli for never fighting with the Ministry of Accounts before. What kind of explanation, I don't know what Qi Ze is like, so I'm stumped now.

After leaving the court, officials from Zhou Si's faction sneered at Yan Mu's people before leaving. Although Yan Mu's faction had dissatisfaction, they endured and ignored them.

Ji Mo didn't know that Yue Li would ask the household department to pay the money in today's court hall. When the people dispersed, Ji Mofang said to Yue Li: "Xie Mian, it's my fault that I didn't tell you in advance, Yunhe At the beginning, my master promised to use the strength of the Yan family to handle this matter, and there are some things involved in it that I can't tell you right now, but if you need money in the future, the Yan family will pay for it."

Yue Li smiled helplessly: "I didn't know there were so many things involved, but Prime Minister Yan was ridiculed in court today."

Ji Mo comforted: "The Yan family and the Zhou family have long been in the same situation. It's okay. The Zhou family will cause trouble. What's more, today has an opportunity. This is not the first time. My master will not take it to heart. I don't know, it's not your fault, I will explain to the master for you." Yue Li thanked Jimo with a smile.

The two didn't stay for a while when they arrived at the Ministry of Works, Feng Qiyue sent someone to call Yue to leave the Grand Lady's Mansion, Yue Li knew that it should be today's business, so she went with her.

Feng Qiyue knew the ins and outs of the canal matter, so she naturally knew the agreement between Yueli and Yan Mu. This canal was funded by Wolongzhai. Feng Qiyue knew that this project would consume a lot of money, it would be a mistake Thinking that Yueli's subordinates don't have enough money, Feng Qiyue has been doing business with the staff of the Chamber of Commerce for many years, and earned a lot of private money for Feng Qiyue, Feng Qiyue doesn't have to hide this from Yueli, so now he wants to transfer money Give it to Wolongzhai for opening the canal.

Therefore, when Gu Feng Qiyue saw Yueli, he went straight to the point and said, "Yueli, is there not enough money in the village? I have earned a lot of money from doing business here, and now I can allocate some of it to Wolong Village."

Yueli smiled and said: "Your Highness doesn't need to pay the money, there is enough money in the stockade right now, although a lot of money was invested in the early stage of opening this canal, but when the first section of the canal from Qingjiang to Wujun is opened and put into use, it will be possible to save money from traffic The caravans get a lot of canal usage fees, and the rivers are used to support the rivers. The later sections of the canal will not cost too much money. The minister mentioned the transfer of money from the household department in the court today. I really didn’t know about Master Qi’s work style before. , otherwise I would not discuss this boring."

Feng Qiyue said with a smile: "You got hurt once, although this aunt is a bit stingy, she is also a loyal minister who is dedicated to the country."

Yue Li said: "Of course I understand this, it's just that Mr. Qi is too cunning."

Feng Qiyue changed the subject with a smile and asked: "If you collect tax money from the caravan, you won't be afraid of the caravan's complaints."

Yueli said: "The state contributes money and efforts, so they get this convenience for nothing? Once the canal is opened, how much more silver can they earn, and how much will a little toll cost them? If they don't want to, they can continue to do business by land, Wolong The village is not vegetarian, and now I don't let them donate money to build the river, it's already showing mercy."

Feng Qiyue chuckled: "You can collect donations, and let your subordinates be the first to pay the money."

Yue Li shook his head and smiled, "It's not needed right now, if the money is not enough, I'll ask His Highness to ask for it."

Yueli recalled the matter of the Ministry of Industry and said, "But right now, there is something I want to ask Your Highness for your grace."

Feng Qiyue smiled and said: "It seems that Gu can't promise you easily, just say it, Gu will naturally agree to you."

Yueli said: "Nowadays, the Ministry of Industry still has too few people. If it is as big as building a house, it is as small as a table, chairs and utensils. Take the ships needed for the opening of the canal. All these need people to design and build, but now the Ministry of Industry There are basically no people in this area, how about His Highness recruiting a group of people who are proficient in these areas in Fengxiang to join the Ministry of Industry?"

Feng Qiyue smiled and said: "It is possible, but you are in charge of arranging these people, and you have to go to the household department to ask for their ICBC, I don't care about it."

Yue Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Your Highness has also become so stingy."

Feng Qiyue said: "I have nothing to do with Mr. Qi, and you can't force orders. If you can get money from the Ministry of Households, you can recruit more people to the Ministry of Industry."

Yueli said helplessly: "Your Highness, remember what you said, I will make Mr. Qi willing to pay the money."

Feng Qiyue inadvertently glanced at Yueli's wrist, saw the bracelet on Yueli's wrist protruding from under the sleeve, never seen any jewelry on Yueli's body before, Feng Qiyue said: "The bracelet on your wrist is very beautiful ."

Yue Li lifted his sleeves up to reveal his wrists and said, "Your Highness also thinks it's beautiful, it's a gift from King Xiping."

Feng Qiyue frowned slightly: "Oh, why did she give you this?"

Yue Li aimed his wrist at a glass bottle, and pressed the gem, the glass bottle shattered, Yue Li smiled and said, "This is a hidden weapon, King Xiping gave it to me for self-defense."

Feng Qiyue said lightly: "She treats you very well."

Yue Li put down his sleeves and said: "Your Highness has also noticed, and I have always been puzzled by King Xiping's attitude. When we came to Beijing, we just met for the first time, but she was very friendly to me when we first met. I want to know What the hell is she thinking?"

Feng Qiyue felt more cheerful and said, "That's why you asked her to be Li Wan's husband."

Yue Li smiled and said: "That's right, I just gave her a chance to get close to me and see what she really wants to do. But your Highness, is it really not just to lure the king of Xiping to Beijing this time?"
