Quick Transmigration: The Female Lead Arrives—Sidekicks, Step Back! - Chapter 1298
[1298. Chapter 1298 Her Royal Highness Princess VS Stand-in Secret Guard (24)]
How did this statement come about?
It turned out that the newly appointed emperor, his majesty, after the court had stabilized and everything was under his control, he began to recruit skilled craftsmen from the entire Heavenly Dragon Dynasty to build a magnificent palace in the harem.
As soon as he ascended the throne, he began to carry out construction projects and built a Chinese room, which made many ministers worried – this is not a good sign.
How many kings of subjugated countries are all extravagant and misunderstood!
Of course, these ministers did not dare to say this.
They just persuaded His Majesty euphemistically, saying that the late emperor was always simple, and His Majesty could follow the legacy of the late emperor.
Long Xiao calmly looked at the minister of household affairs in the hall.
The Minister of the Ministry of Housing is a shrewd old man with a mustache.
Of course, to be able to achieve such an official position as the Minister of the Ministry of Household, it is impossible for him to be shrewd.
The minister of households still has some abilities, but he is too stingy.
You want money, and see money as more important than anything else.
At that time, the first emperor felt that it was probably a good idea to make such a person the minister of households.
Facts have proved that it is indeed a good idea. After this budget-conscious Minister of the Ministry of Finance took office, the national treasury has become more and more abundant day by day.
Long Xiao was very sure of his ability, but sometimes he felt that this old man was really annoying.
For example, at this time… The
Minister of the Ministry of Commerce has been talking about the time for a cup of tea since the beginning of the court!
The central idea inside and outside the words is one – no money! Your Majesty you need to be frugal!
Feeling the lower and lower air pressure on His Majesty the Emperor, many courtiers silently took a step back and stayed away from this heroic Shang Shu.
As the saying goes, new officials take office for three fires, not to mention that this is the most honorable one in the entire Tianlong.
He wants to build a palace, you can just let him go!
Anyway, the Tianlong country is strong and the treasury is abundant, not to mention building a palace, even building another imperial city is no problem.
Long Xiao listened patiently for a while, and found that if he didn’t say anything, the Master Shang Shu would probably have time to say another cup of tea, and he finally couldn’t help but interrupt his words.
“Qian Aiqing, I have a few questions that I would like to ask, and you can answer them.” The
minister of households was taken aback for a moment. He didn’t understand what the emperor was selling, so he had to bow down: “Your Majesty asks me, this minister will definitely know everything.
” Are there any of my people who are not fed and clothed?” Qian
Shangshu was stunned: “Your Majesty’s grace is in the sea, and the people of Tianlong have no worries about food and clothing.
”
Shang Shu replied respectfully: “Your Majesty’s kindness and righteousness, never.”
“I will ask you again, what was the income of our treasury last year?”
“Reporting to Your Majesty, a total of…”
Qian Shangshu almost subconsciously reported a series of numbers.
After he finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly looked towards His Majesty the emperor.
Long Xiao looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile: “With such a huge income, there has never been a large expenditure, Qian Shangshu, did you tell me that you have no money?”
Yao Shangshu’s legs softened instantly.
I can’t take this word at all!
If he dared to say that he had no money, he would be able to order his house to be raided by the emperor. Where did all the income from the treasury go last year?
Qian Shangshu looked at His Majesty the Emperor who was digging a hole for him to dance, and wanted to cry without tears: “Reporting to His Majesty, the old minister is old, it was a miscalculation.”
“Oh~” Long Xiao suddenly realized, “In other words, rich, right? ”
Qian Shangshu nodded with difficulty.
