The villain he just wants to make money [quick wear]

Young Master Yan was awakened by a sharp pain.

Although he has also practiced martial arts since he was a child, he did not have much actual combat experience after all. This is the first time he has suffered such a serious injury. What's more, he has lost all martial arts, the pain of destroying his meridians and the pain of his wound are intertwined. The instant he opened his eyes, he began to break out in a cold sweat, and there was an unconscious groan in his throat, the pain was unbearable.

At this moment, the doctor's voice sounded, as if he was telling someone: "Your Majesty, the young master's injury has been properly bandaged, but although the bleeding has stopped, because it is a penetrating injury, it still needs to be taken care of carefully. You must not get in the water, and the injury on the son's meridian has not healed, which may affect the recovery of the penetrating injury."

Xie Gu said: "I see, how long will it take for him to recover?"

The Imperial Physician hesitated and said: "If we look at the current situation, it will take at least half a year to recover, and even if we just need to get up and walk around, it may take about a month."

Xie Gu seemed a little dissatisfied: "It will take so long?"

The imperial doctor thought for a while, and replied: "If you use the holy medicine for healing, or the tonic whose value is equivalent to the thousand-year-old ginseng, it should be able to halve the recovery time."

Xie Gu said: "So expensive? Forget it, let him fend for himself."

Young Master Yan almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then Xie Gu said: "However, during this period of time, I still take good care of him, so he must be able to move freely earlier!"

The imperial physician hurriedly said respectfully: "Yes, I should do my best."

"Well," Xie Gu said in a slightly satisfied tone, "You just watch here, I'll go and interrogate the assassin."

Amidst the voices of "Farewell to Your Majesty", Gong Ziyan finally opened his eyes.

The night outside the window was cold, but the hall was brightly lit, and there were crowds of people beside him, but at this moment they were all kneeling in the direction of the hall door, and the emperor they were kneeling to see off had already stepped out of the hall without looking back. The door, only a piece of clothing flashed past, leaving no trace.

Watching Xie Gu leave without giving himself a chance to speak and guide, Gong Ziyan finally realized that many things seemed to have changed, and everything was no longer completely under his control.

And Xie Gu left the Jianjia Hall, turned around and went back to his sleeping hall.

Because Eunuch Hai is still resting on the dragon bed, and Xiaoqianzi is serving by Gongziyan's side, so Xie Gu specially selected two eunuchs to serve him personally, and they changed their names, one is Yuanbao and the other is Facai—although It sounds like a dog's name, but after all, it is a former imperial eunuch, and the original body was famous before, so these two people can only happily accept it.

Yuan Bao did not follow Xie Bone to Jianjia Hall—the riots caused by the previous banquet were finally subsided. The assassins had already committed assassinations, so the banquet could not continue. The luthier and assassin were taken down on the spot. However, the actors and ministers are still unable to leave, and need to be checked one by one.

In fact, according to the original body's previous habits, none of those present might survive, even if they had nothing to do with the assassin, but when the emperor was angry, it was normal for dozens or even hundreds of people to die.

Of course, Xie Gu didn't have the habit of killing people indiscriminately, so he only temporarily detained everyone, and asked the guards to come and search them one by one. As for himself, he went to Jianjia Hall to visit the accused Send the childe Yan for emergency treatment.

However, the banquet hall must also be presided over, so Yuan Bao and An Yi were left at the scene, while the remaining An Wei and Fa Cai followed Xie Gu to leave.

At this time, Xie Gu was heading towards the bedroom, and Fa Cai immediately asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, that assassin...?"

Logically speaking, if the assassin is caught, shouldn't he be put in prison immediately?Why did His Majesty go directly to the bedroom?

Xie Gu said: "The sky prison is inconvenient, I just asked someone to bring the assassin to my bedroom."

He laughed grimly: "If you dare to destroy my thousand-year-old yellow rosewood table with a sword, you have to be prepared to be skinned by cramps!"

Fa Cai always felt that something was wrong, shouldn't it be because he was angry that the other party hurt the son's words?Why does it seem that the wooden table was split with a crack, which seems to annoy His Majesty even more?

But he still quickly said with the enemy: "This assassin is really heinous, and he really should be sentenced to death!"

Xie Gu glanced at Fa Cai, and then said: "The death penalty is not enough, you don't have to follow the inner room later, I will interrogate this assassin alone."

"Yes." Fa Cai nodded, no doubt in his heart.

After entering the inner room, An Er was already waiting inside.

When he saw Xie Gu come in, he immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the identity of the assassin has been found out, and he was a former guest of the criminal minister Nie Ming. We took the poison out of his mouth before he committed suicide, and then In addition, we have also selected a prisoner who is similar in size to him, and we have brought him here from the sky prison, and we can send him back after dawn."

Xie Gu nodded: "Well, remember to take good care of this person, the assassin's body was disposed of quietly, and no one should know that he is dead."

An Er nodded in agreement, and then exited the inner room.

After An Er went out, Xie Gu read the book for a while, sorting out the current situation.

He already knew that the assassin was arranged by Gong Ziyan, and Xie Gu secretly shot the other party's oolong stabbing Gong Ziyan with a sword, but the other party is a master, it's normal to not find anything wrong under the emotional tension before, but when he regains his composure Afterwards, he must realize the problem, so after the hidden guard took the opponent down, Xie Gu directly ordered the person to be killed.

As for why the poison hidden in the gap between the teeth should be taken out?Only in this way will Young Master Yan not doubt that the assassin is still alive.

Gong Ziyan carefully arranged this rescue, and indeed won the trust of the original body to a considerable extent in the original trajectory, but this doorman itself is a huge loophole, as long as it is kept, it will become a thorn in Gong Ziyan's heart The assassin was threatening him all the time, and when a person was worried, he would inevitably show his feet, so Xie Gu would not announce that the assassin was dead.

He would only say that the assassin wanted to commit suicide but was stopped, and now he is being imprisoned to receive the cruelest punishment until he reveals the truth about the assassination.

Of course, Xie Gu didn't expect this move to kill Young Master Yan, but it could still add some trouble to the opponent. He has already checked the progress of the slap in the face, and there has been no change so far. There must be some deviation in it. It's a long-term plan.

However, while paying attention to the opponent strategically, Xie Gu still pays more attention to the issue of making money.

After all, the emperor Yuanshen seems to be acting recklessly, but it really shouldn't be so poor.

There is also the yellow rosewood table that was accidentally cracked. You must know that the most important thing for these treasures is the integrity. This table looks like a crack, but the value is cut in half!If he didn't know that no money could be squeezed from that assassin, Xie Gu would definitely make the other party's pocket clean!

But the assassin was ordered by Gong Ziyan, so it was right to extract money from Gong Ziyan!

He got up and went to the bath to take a bath, thinking about the situation again.

From the next day, another new order was implemented in the palace.

For this reason, Xie Gu also specially issued an imperial decree, to the effect that he has fought for many years and lived in extravagance. He really shouldn't enjoy it like this. He is ashamed of his ancestors. Save some money!

So he laid off staff directly in the palace.

That is to say, a large number of maids and eunuchs in the palace will be dismissed from the palace, and the royal family will no longer bear their expenses. In addition, Xie Gu himself and his concubines will have their daily quotas reduced. "Have children", "have no merit in the family, the country and the community", so the reduction in the ratio is not much better than that of a first-class court lady.

What's more, Xie Gu also hinted at the end of the imperial decree, saying that this method is still being implemented on a trial basis in the palace, and it will be promoted in the future when the time is right.

This made the whole country shudder.

One is those court ladies and eunuchs. The court ladies are a little bit better. Many of them are still women with clean family backgrounds and even official backgrounds. Even if they are a little older, they don’t have to worry about getting married.With their special physical condition, it is impossible for them to have children!Many jobs in the market are not suitable for them, so it is not easy to survive.

The second is the role of concubines. Although there are not many concubines in the palace, and they have not been favored yet, how can someone who can gain a foothold in the palace under such circumstances have no background?Most of them were pampered young ladies when they were in their boudoirs, which suddenly reduced the status and made them live a hard life!

The third is Xie Gu's hint - now it is a trial in the palace, will it be promoted in the future?Think about it with your knees and know where he wants to promote it. This is to promote it among courtiers!

So for a while the courtiers desperately opposed it.

But Xie Gu didn't want to do this blindly, he had already made a plan for these three points.

First, for the court ladies and eunuchs, it was actually just dismissal on the surface. For those who had the strength to take back their daughters and wanted to be free, Xie Gu naturally sent them all back to increase their prestige and authenticity.

But for those who don't want to go home or have no way to stand on their own, this group of people is only dismissed on the surface, but in fact they have already been secretly sent to various places in batches. Returning to the civilian population after training, on the one hand, it is to collect intelligence, and on the other hand, it is to manage private property for him.

After all, Xie Gu's layoffs were mainly to reduce the expenditure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and did not significantly help the income of his private treasury, so he simply took more than half of the private treasury funds, and sold dozens of large and small ones across the country under different names. Hundreds of shops are handed over to these people to operate, which not only solves their employment problem, but also makes money for themselves.

Second, those concubines are also easy to deal with. They are not close to women, so there are very few concubines in the harem, because there is no problem of being favored, and everyone is still kind and there is no intrigue. But now it is different, because the son said Was made a noble concubine.

Although it seems that everyone is quite dissatisfied with the issue of the reduction of quotas, this will not threaten survival, so at this time, as long as they create a common conflict for the concubines, they can naturally divert their attention.

What do concubines care about?Of course it is the emperor's favor!

The original body resisted all opinions, son Yan was pushed to the position of imperial concubine as a man, and there is no queen in the palace, so son Yan is now the highest ranking, this kind of favor is simply unprecedented, so it only needs a little push to fuel the flames, Concubines, who cares about the issue of quotas?The top priority is to get this young master off the horse first!

It’s hard for Mr. Yan himself, he obviously has no feeling for Xie Gu, he’s still in bed, and he’s the one who’s been deducted the most money, but he’s still a thorn in the side of the other concubines, let’s say he’s just asking for trouble for Xie Gu The most important thing is to prevent the concubines from attacking.

Finally, about these ministers.

In fact, most of them are just planning for a rainy day. After all, Xie Gu is talking about promotion in the future, but who knows how far behind it will be?Now only a small group of opponents are worried about concubines and palace people, and a large number of them can basically be defined as fighting for their own future interests.

So among the two groups of people, the first part is concerned about the country and the people, and the latter part is looking for trouble when they are full. The solution is also very simple, just find something for them to do.

And right now there is a very important event.

Next month, envoys from many dependent countries will go to Nanluo together to meet the emperor.

After the destruction of the Beiling Kingdom, Nanluo became the hegemony. Many of the former affiliated states of Beiling switched to Nanluo, so this time the number of envoys was very large, and the task of receiving them was also very difficult. It is also worth mentioning that there was a small country that captured Here comes the fugitive Princess Beiling, who wants to sacrifice to Nanluo.
