There is a little husband in the home of crossing

Without Chang Hehui's disturbance, Li Yaonan's life in the Imperial Academy was quiet and comfortable, and his relationship with his colleagues was friendly. It is worth mentioning that Yang Minghua accepted Wang Qing as his concubine at the beginning of last month, and the Wang family also continued under the prince's revenge. After the re-existence, the prefect of Shandong beheaded for public display, and other members of the Wang family, exiled and exiled, compared with those people, Wang Qing's ending was much better.

On September [-]th, Li Mingzhang got married. After Li Yaonan and Zhou Qian sent the congratulatory gifts, they only went to the cats and did not attend the banquet.

Although Li Mingzhang had regrets in his heart, he understood their difficulties. The princess was married, and all the princes and nobles came. Li Yaonan just made a big mess, so it was really inappropriate to stay there for a long time.

Autumn goes and winter comes, and it is spring again in a blink of an eye.

The experience in the officialdom made Li Yaonan look more stable. The ancient romance has been finished, and Li Yaonan has borrowed a lot of books from the Imperial Academy. Currently, he is adapting the Romance of the Gods from the history of Xia Zhou, so as to show his presence in front of the emperor.

Perhaps it was because of the crown prince's protection that he was safe and sound, but now he has gained a firm foothold through his own efforts and has become an upstart in Beijing.

It’s not that no one has tried his idea and wanted to teach him a lesson, but they were all dismissed one by one. Li Yaonan’s ability to beat him up caused not only headaches for the emperor, but also headaches for officials who made mistakes. Once you say it, it becomes a big deal, and it's hard not to admit your mistake.

Li Yaonan took this opportunity to become famous again, as if every time someone tried to punish him, he would always be the one who suffered, and let him show his face in front of the emperor, so he got a big deal for nothing, so that the emperor would completely remember this person.

From then on, the noble ministers of Jingzhong no longer dared to underestimate this new Tanhualang, and those who wanted to deal with him would consider and consider again and again, and they would never do it unless they were absolutely sure. I can't help but think of the corruption case in Shandong, and I can't help but wonder whether this incident is a coincidence. If not, then this Tanhualang's ability will have to be re-evaluated.

Such conjectures are simply chilling.

The emperor is fine now, and he likes Xuan Li Yaonan to go to the imperial study to see him. Although he has a headache for Li Yaonan's mouth, as long as it has nothing to do with him, the emperor still likes Li Yaonan's mouth, such as now.

The emperor had no expression on his face, and sat majestically on the dragon seat.

Li Yaonan stood quietly in the corner, acting as the background board.

Several ministers in the imperial study had a quarrel, each insisting on their own words and refusing to give in to each other.

The Hubu Shangshu Yizheng said: "Report to the emperor, even the general's mouth is 300 million taels, and the Hubu can't afford that much money now. Last year, the Taimiao was repaired, the construction of the Qinghe Palace was started, and the severe drought in Shaanxi and Hebei was used for disaster relief. At the end of the year, the army just allocated silver taels, how can there be any money left now?"

Lord Lian sneered: "Where did the five million taels in the Northwest Army come from if you can't get any money? Lord Liao, please don't talk nonsense and ask the emperor to make decisions for your humble ministers." Lord Lian said with snot and tears: "Last year, the household department did not have enough money. , I only allocated 500 million taels to the southeast military region, and the soldiers guarded the border and stayed away from their hometowns, but I couldn't even pay the army salary, I am ashamed!"

The corners of Li Yaonan's lips twitched. Even the lord is usually serious and cold. Because he is a general and has been baptized in blood on the battlefield, he seems to have a faint chilling air all over his body. Now that he cries like this, he feels Not to mention how weird.

General Lian is also a mighty general who has a close relationship with the Li Mansion and is Lin Zhiyuan's teacher. Although Li Yaonan doesn't know what the emperor announced his purpose for coming here, but as a knife he is sure.

The Secretary of the Household Department immediately retorted: "The Northwest army greeted the Ministry of Households as early as the beginning of the year, and the humble ministers can collect the silver taels at the end of the year. Besides, the location in the northwest is cold, and it is right to make clothes in winter to prevent the cold. It is right to have more silver taels. .”

"You fart, there are 50 soldiers in the northwest army, and 80 soldiers in my southeast army. You had no money in the household department the year before last, and you had no money last year. Could it be that my southeast army is not the emperor's courtiers, and I still ask the emperor to call the shots."

With the emperor and the old gods present, such scenes are often staged in the imperial study room. The public says that the public is right and the wife says that the woman is right, but generally speaking, there is still no money.

"My Majesty, there were disasters in Shaanxi and Hebei last year, and this year's spring farming Mr. Liao originally agreed to allocate a million silver to local officials for agricultural work." Another official stood up and reported.

Li Yaonan recognized him as Lord Qingyuan of Dali Temple, that is, the family where Lin Zhiyuan divorced.

"My majesty, the seventh and eighth princes will leave the palace this year to divide the palace. The house has not yet been repaired. I estimate that the wedding of the two princes will cost at least 60 taels. In addition, the queen mother's birthday is coming soon, and she will also need silver taels." Ministry of Rites Shang Shu stood up to speak, with every reason that people could not refuse.

Not to be outdone, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly said: "Qinghe Palace is still short of money, and the repairs to the Yellow River must be completed before summer. These things must not be delayed."

Minister of the Ministry of War sneered: "Could it be possible to delay in the army? Last year in the Southeast Army, food and salaries were still embezzled from the Ministry of War. Do you want to default this year?"

The Minister of the Household Department also became angry, and snorted coldly: "The Household Department now has a total of 200 million taels of silver, what do you think should be done?"

The Minister of the Ministry of War was choked for a moment, 200 million taels sounded good, of which 500 million taels were unusable, and the remaining 700 million taels, the Yellow River repair needed at least 300 million taels, and the Qinghe Palace was still short of 100 million taels. Spring plowing in addition to Shaanxi , Hebei, the rest of the messy places add up to 200 million taels, and the queen mother's birthday prince's branch government also needs 100 million taels, so there is no money left for the army.

The emperor wrinkled his brows, he had a headache because of their quarrel, the Yellow River had to be repaired, spring plowing had to be planted, the queen mother's birthday couldn't be neglected, and the hearts of the soldiers couldn't be chilled either, the emperor frowned and swept away Li Yaonan glanced at him: "Tan Hua Lang seems to have something to say."

Li Yaonan's eyes widened. He was obviously pretending to be dumb, okay? But since the emperor has spoken, how dare he pretend to be stupid? His relationship with General Lian is well known. The adults have already prepared a draft, and they can't even take a step when it comes to money. Jean, just when everyone thought he would help General Lian speak.

Li Yaonan was filled with righteous indignation, pointing the finger at the Minister of the Household Department: "Lord Liao, how can you be worthy of the trust of the emperor, such a large household department actually only has 200 million taels of silver."

Master Liao was taken aback. Logically speaking, this matter could not be blamed on him. He thought he was conscientious and never dared to make half-step mistakes in his actions. Without any reason to say anything, a little Tanhualang, don't think that the emperor valued him so much that he dared to yell at him. Master Liao's face was slightly cold: "Tanhualang be careful, it's not your turn to intervene in the affairs of the Ministry of Households."

The emperor was a little surprised, originally he only wanted Li Yaonan to come and pay the mud, and then he each paid [-] big bills, and the money was transferred to each other, and he was taking some things from the inner treasury and it passed, but he didn't expect that this guy would go straight to the Minister of the Household Department Should it be said that he is bold and reckless, or should he be said to be favored and coquettish, relying on his own backing to get worse, but Li Yaonan's words did speak to his heart, such a big household is empty every year, even though he knows in his heart There is nothing wrong with Mr. Liao, but he is still somewhat dissatisfied in his heart.

Seeing that the emperor did not speak, Li Yaonan continued: "My lord Liao's words are different. As a subject, I should share the emperor's worries. If the household department can't get the silver taels, is it reasonable for you?"

Lord Liao burst into tears, and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, I have worked hard in the household department, and I can check all the account books. I never dare to misuse a single piece of paper, and I ask the emperor to check it out."

The emperor had a headache, and suddenly felt that it was not a wise decision to call Li Yaonan and Xi Ni.

Li Yaonan stood upright, knelt on the ground, and said respectfully: "My Majesty, the responsibility of the household department is to add to the treasury. According to Mr. Liao, everything is done step by step. How is that different from a housekeeper? You can't add to the treasury. Originally It's Master Liao's fault, and now he's complaining before the emperor because of the lack of military pay, let me ask, if the Minister of the Household Department only does housekeeping, what use does the emperor want him for?"

"You, bold." Master Liao blushed with anger.

Li Yaonan was not afraid, the Minister of the Household Department had a good relationship with the Northwest Army, since he was not at odds with Lord Lian, why should he be polite, the emperor wanted to use him as a saber, he could not refuse, but how to do it was up to him to decide.

The knife, the murder weapon, is quick to use and faster to throw. He will never let himself become a rusty knife, nor let himself become a useless pawn.

The emperor's eyes darkened, knowing that Mr. Liao was right, Li Yaonan's words still fell on his heart.

Master Liao knew something was wrong at a glance: "The emperor made atonement. In recent years, natural disasters have continued in various places, and tax revenue has dropped by more than [-]% compared with previous years. My minister..."

"Master Liao." Li Yaonan interrupted him: "No matter how you explain it, it is a fact that the treasury has no money. This is due to your dereliction of duty. The second is that the distribution of military salaries is biased. The gap between the Northwest Army and the Southeast Army is too large. Third, if you don’t have enough money in the treasury, you don’t want to think about how to increase the income of the national treasury, but instead make a fuss in front of the emperor, this is your incompetence, do you dare to admit it?”

"The emperor's redemption!" Master Liao felt bitter in his heart, and finally realized that Li Yaonan's sharp mouth really lived up to his reputation.

The emperor's eyes were sharp, he stared at Li Yaonan closely, trying to see something from his expression.

Li Yaonan's face was calm, he let the emperor look at him, he knew that a companion is like a tiger, so he didn't have any secrets in front of the emperor, he spread everything out, he was not afraid of any investigation by the emperor.

"What does Tanhualang think it should be." The emperor said casually.

Li Yaonan knew in his heart that the emperor didn't want to listen to his opinion, but wanted to test, to test who he would favor.

Li Yaonan hesitated for a moment, then politely declined: "My minister's words are mild, I'm afraid it's not easy to intervene."

The emperor smiled lightly: "No problem, I allow you to speak out."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Yaonan kowtowed to express his gratitude, and continued: "I think this is a matter of the Ministry of Household Affairs, which should be resolved by the Minister of the Ministry of Accounting, and there must be no shortage of silver everywhere." Otherwise, the Minister of the Ministry of Accounting is incompetent.

Of course, Li Yaonan didn't say the last sentence, in fact, he felt a little regretful, as early as the emperor's questioning, he heard that the emperor did not want to deal with the Minister of the Household Department, even though he won today's fight and won the emperor's favor, But in fact, he offended the officials of the court, and he didn't know whether it was a profit or a loss. However, he had no choice. After that, the relationship with Lianjia will also become estranged, which is not what he likes to see.

The emperor laughed, and his majestic voice was full of joy: "What do you think, Mr. Liao?"

Mr. Liao was full of worries, talking about this, what else could he do, he could only bite the bullet and kowtow: "I will definitely do my best."

The emperor was satisfied, and Li Yaonan added: "It's not about doing everything you can, but it's necessary. Mr. Liao has been an official for many years, and he must be able to collect the money."

Lord Liao gritted his teeth, hated Li Yaonan very much, and said respectfully: "This humble minister will definitely collect the silver taels to share the emperor's worries."

"Okay!" The emperor was happy in his heart, and now everything was pleasing to the eye: "Liao Qing's family, get up, I believe you."

Master Liao had a bitter face, and he felt uncomfortable at all, where would he collect millions of taels of silver.

Li Yaonan once again showed his face on the emperor, even the general was quite worried, this kid is too courageous, he really should be taught a lesson.

Li Yaonan was in a state of distress and couldn't tell, how dare he disobey the emperor's position for him.
