In order to catch the monk with a scarlet head, he spent all his energy these days on monitoring Jia Rui and the capital, and at night he fought with the monk with a scarlet head, which really exhausted him.

Seeing his appearance, Tu Yu shook his head helplessly, resigned to his fate, stepped forward to remove Jia She's coat, so that he could sleep better.

With the increase in cultivation, unless necessary, Tu Yu no longer lay on the bed to sleep, and instead used meditation. Although it was not as comfortable as sleeping, he liked it more because he practiced sleeping and killing two birds with one stone.

This time, Jia She fell asleep until the sun was up. Normally at this time, Emperor Xingning would have already woken up, but Tu Yu was still sitting cross-legged next to him, as if he would not go to see Emperor Xingning first until he woke up. frame.

But Tu Yu has this operation, Jia She said that this is a normal operation, it's a trivial matter.

"Has His Majesty woke up?"

Tu Yu opened his eyes, pulled the rope bell next to the bed, and there were young eunuchs rushing in with the toiletries in their hands.

Knowing that Jia She would lie on the bed for a while, Tu Yu got up and walked to the sink, wrung out the towel, and washed Jia She himself to wake him up.

Tu Yu said softly, "Your Majesty has already woken up and is waiting for us."

Jia Amnesty's beautiful face blushed meaningfully, "My fault, you get up, hurry up, I'll wash up first, don't make His Majesty and the old man wait for a long time, that's really a sin."

Tu Yu laughed, shook his head, and walked away obediently, so that Jia She could take care of himself.

When the two arrived at the side hall of the Qianlong Palace, Emperor Xingning had already sat at the dining table and began to taste his own breakfast.

When Jia Amnesty saw it, he didn't know how to be polite at all, he happily ran to the table, sat down, and naturally ordered the chief manager of His Majesty the emperor.

"Come, come, Manager Wang, add two sets of bowls and chopsticks for us, I'm starving to death."

Emperor Xingning scolded with a smile: "You know you're hungry, why don't you get up and eat quickly? I thought you were going to change your nature as a foodie? You're going to be a vegetarian."

Jia Amnesty coughed twice, embarrassedly said: "Isn't this, you overslept!"

Emperor Xingning snorted softly: "You are wise."

Adhering to the rule of "Don't talk when eating, don't talk when sleeping", the three of them finished their breakfast quietly, and then the three of them went to the study in Qianlong Hall, preparing to plot something.

Emperor Xingning sat down at the head and waited for the little eunuch to bring him some tea, before he asked, "Tell me, what is an imminent matter, why did you enter the palace in such a hurry?"

These two are his right-hand men, good courtiers who know how to measure, if there is no urgent matter, Emperor Xing Ning believes that these two people will not think of going to the palace to see him.

When mentioning the reason for entering the palace, Jia Amnesty suddenly became excited.

He pulled the embroidered pier and approached Emperor Xingning, as if he had a little secret to share with His Majesty the Emperor, and the corners of Emperor Xingning's eyes twitched non-stop.

The small eyes subconsciously looked at Tu Yu who was quietly cutting sweet cakes for Jia She.Seeing that he looked like an old god and not jealous, he was relieved.

This younger brother of his family was so jealous that even he didn't dare to tease the tiger's whiskers.

Jia Amnesty didn't care about Emperor Xingning's entanglement at all, he turned over his hand, and a beautifully shaped chicken coop, which didn't look like a chicken coop at all, appeared in his hand.

Since Emperor Xingning met Jia She, although he knew that his Duke Rong and Prince Zhongrui were not extraordinary people, it was the first time he saw them using such mysterious methods in front of him.

Emperor Xingning admitted that he was taken aback.

"Huh? This is?"

Jia She grinned, pointed to a bit of chicken skin protruding from the chicken coop, and said to Emperor Xingning: "Look, do you always know what this is?"

Emperor Xing Ning was aroused by him, hurriedly moved to the chicken cage, widened his eyes, trying to see clearly what was in the cage.

It's a pity that my eyesight is not good, and I can't see anything no matter how I look.

Jia She proudly announced the answer: "This is a big toad that has successfully cultivated! Look, how cute is this slick, plump body! The bumps on its body are so beautiful and artistic. ! Look again, isn't each of these bumps like a big copper coin!"

Not to mention, Emperor Xingning was fooled by Jia She, just now he saw the bulges on his goosebumpy skin, the more they looked more like copper coins.

He hesitated: "You mean to say, this is a golden toad that can only attract money?!"

Jia She nodded affirmatively, "That's right, this is a successful toad. When the prince subdued it just now, he sprayed copper coins in his mouth and used copper coins as hidden weapons. Tsk, I don't know what this beast is thinking." Yes, it actually uses money as a weapon, which shows how rich it is!"

To prove that he was not talking nonsense, Jia Amnesty also took out a golden copper coin from his sleeve pocket.

Emperor Xingning took the copper coin and looked at it carefully, and found that this copper coin was not minted by the Daqi Dynasty, nor did it seem to be the copper coin of the previous dynasty, so he no longer doubted Jia She's words.

After ascending the throne, Emperor Xingning, who was troubled by the situation of the state treasury and private treasury becoming empty, gradually developed in the direction of money lovers.This golden toad that can attract money appeared in front of him, how could Emperor Xingning let it go? !

Emperor Xingning's eyes were shining brightly, brother Kong Fang appeared from one eye, and gold ingots appeared from the other eye! ! !

Rubbing his hands, "Is this really a golden toad? That's great! Recently, some people in the southwest have been restless, and the national treasury is empty. Having such a good thing that will attract money is better than anything else!"

Tu Yu coughed lightly, and signaled Emperor Xingning to pay attention to his image. There was nothing wrong with being a money fan, but it would be wrong for an emperor to be so money fan.

Jia She didn't like to hear Emperor Xingning's words, "I remember this month's financial report clearly stated that the income of each store last month was not low. Will your old private treasury be empty?" Ghost!

Emperor Xingning rolled his eyes very impolitely, "You also said that it is my private treasury, not the national treasury. There is no need for my private treasury to pay for Zhan! It makes no sense!"

Jia She curled her lips and didn't know who it was. When she first came to the throne, the treasury had no money. In order to win the war with Wala, without saying a word, she directly used the money from the private treasury to fight the war!

"That's not right, most of the money-making shops we set up, except for the dividends from the ministers and His Majesty, went to the treasury, so why are there no money?" He said that the treasury has no money, and he can't settle accounts after looking at him?

As soon as this matter was brought up, Emperor Xing Ning became angry: "Don't tell me about dividends! I said earlier that day, those dividends go to the treasury, unless it is a major military event, you are not allowed to touch it. Those people see that the money is not pleasing to the eye every day, so they dig the walls of the national treasury in different ways. The thick walls of the national treasury have almost been emptied."

This question involves Jia She's blind spot. Jia She turned his head, looked at Tu Yu, and asked silently: "Hey, dear prince, is the treasury really going to be emptied?"

Seeing his junior brother's gaze, Tu Yu shook his head as if there was nothing there, so Jia Amnesty understood.

Dare to love Emperor Xingning, this is a donkey to him!Want to trick him into making money for the treasury!

As Emperor Xingning said, those court officials, one by one, are all staring at the money in the treasury!He didn't want to make wedding dresses for those people.

So, Jia Amnesty picked up the tea bowl and tasted it carefully.This is the tribute tea that just came in the other day——Wuyi Dahongpao.Thinking back to the modern society he experienced in the illusion of reality, these things were all calculated by gram, and the tea on the mother tree was no longer available, and most people could not afford it.

However, he could also see that he and Tu Yu entered the palace today, and they might have cast themselves into a trap. It seemed that Emperor Xingning would not let them go unless they brought out some dry goods.

Rolling his eyes, he suddenly thought of something.

"Your Majesty, I remember that during the reign of the first emperor, some officials who were struggling in life borrowed money from the Ministry of Households to help them tide over the difficulties. Later, there was no one in the court who did not borrow money from the Ministry of Households. This phenomenon , During the reign of the old sage, it got even worse." During the reign of the Empress Dowager, a large part of the reason why the national treasury became a racetrack was this.

Speaking of this, Jia Amnesty suddenly remembered that it seemed that the Ningrong and Rongfu government had deliberately borrowed some money in order to keep pace with the courtiers.

Of course, if he hadn't been born in the Jia family, borrowing money from the household department would have more meaning than just that.

Jia She coughed lightly, feeling very embarrassed: "Cough, I remember, my family and my uncle's family also borrowed 10 taels of silver from the household department, and when I turned back, I returned the owed money with my elder brother. "

After saying that, Tu Yu looked up at Jia She, and immediately said to Emperor Xingning: "Prince Zhongrui's residence also borrowed 25 taels, and tomorrow I will return the owed money."

"Huh? The palace also owes the Ministry of Household money?" This is really the first time Jia Amnesty has heard of this.Prince Zhongrui's mansion was sparsely populated, and the old Prince Zhongrui left a lot of money. When Tu Yu was adopted, the Supreme Emperor gave him the money as well.

Of course, the money that can reach Tu Yu's hands is only less than [-]% of that of Prince Zhongrui's mansion back then.But it is also very impressive.

Tu Yu said with a smile: "Back then, the Wangfu was just like Ningrong and Rongfu. Borrowing money was just for fun."

If it weren't for the high rank of Prince Zhongrui's mansion, Prince Zhongrui at that time would not have borrowed so much. According to that person's temperament, he would only have borrowed thousands of 800 taels.

Emperor Xingning was not happy: "What about the interest? According to what you mean, if you borrow 10 taels of silver, you are going to pay back 10 taels?"

Jia She chuckled, let alone, he really had this idea in mind.As Emperor Xingning said, the money has been borrowed for many years. The two generations have been borrowing for more than 100 years instead of 50 years. The interest calculated is quite considerable.

"Your Majesty, as far as I know, since I borrowed money from the household department, I have only seen borrowing money, but I have not seen repayment. Anyway, I was also the first person who asked to repay the loan. I should give it to you." It's good, isn't it?"

Tu Yu reprimanded lightly: "Nonsense." Although the words were reprimanded, the tone was full of pampering.

Although Jia Amnesty's proposal is quite reasonable, as an emperor who is becoming more and more obsessed with money, Emperor Xingning is reluctant to part with the interest accumulated over the past few decades anyway.

"Hmph, there's no need to discuss it."

"Oh, the interest is more than the principal, this is a mess."
