Tang Yin stared at Zhang Zhe and said nothing for a long time. He often couldn''t help but wonder whether Zhang Zhe was born to fight against himself. When he said one, he said two, and when he said two, he said one.
After pondering for a long time, he asked, "Lord Zhang, but tell me again that there is no money in the Treasury?"
"How is that possible?!" Don''t wait for Zhang Zhe to talk, Zhang Xin stood up and said: "China''s Treasury didn''t make any expenditure on the war against mo. instead of spending money, it still made enough gold and silver. Even if it costs some money to build the palace and the minister''s residence, it''s not enough to spend all the money in the Treasury. I want to ask Lord Zhang, where is the money in the Treasury? Is it really spent or in someone''s own waist "Bag?"
Zhang Zhe sneered and said, "the silver in the Treasury is still in the Treasury."
"Then why..."
"I have more than one million troops and hundreds of thousands of horses. Which one doesn''t need money to support so many horses? Food and grass, military funds, armaments and military pay. If the money in the Treasury is emptied now, who will support this million troops? Lord Zhang, do you want money?"
Zhang Xin was speechless by Zhang Zhe and retreated with an ugly face. Zhang Zhe looked up at Tang Yin and said, "if the king wants to fight abroad and withdraw money from the Treasury, even if Wei Chen digs three feet, he will take out enough gold and silver and give it to the king. If he only wants to buy household for the ministers and withdraw silver from the Treasury, I''m sorry, Wei Chen can''t take out a copper plate."
Tang Yin was almost angry and asked, "are you the king or am I the king? At the beginning, I promised all adults that I would help you buy your homes when the capital was moved to Zhenjiang. Did Lord Zhang want me to break my promise in public?"
"The king''s promise is the king''s own problem. You can''t empty the Treasury because of the king''s promise, leaving endless future troubles." On the issue of principle, Zhang Zhe gave full play to the spirit of the Iron Rooster and did not give in at all.
Zhang Zhe''s toughness made Tang Yin''s face red. He was the king of the country. He had spoken his words. Even if it was wrong, he could only harden his head to the end. Seeing that it was difficult for Tang Yin to ride a tiger, Shangguan Yuanji quickly stood up and said, "king, what Lord Zhang said is not unreasonable. The money of the Treasury should not be spent on these trivial things. However, even if the king had made a promise and couldn''t abide by it, it''s better to compromise."
"What kind of compromise?"
"Lord Zhang is afraid that your lords and generals will be out of control when purchasing their homes. If everyone is like this, the total cost will really become astronomical. No matter how much money is in the Treasury, it will not be enough. The king can set a limit and set the upper limit of the expenses of officials of all grades. In this way, the king will honor his promise and will not make it too difficult for Lord Zhang to do it in one fell swoop Two gains. " Shangguan Yuanji youyou said.
Hearing his words, Tang Yin nodded his head, stroked his palm and smiled. At the same time, he nodded secretly. At the critical moment, he had to rely on Yuanji, which was smooth and flexible. He was very good at being a man!
He smiled at Zhang Zhe and asked, "Lord Zhang, do you think the prime minister''s words are feasible?"
Zhang Zhe and Shangguan Yuanji are similar in age and grade, but from the heart, he still respects Shangguan Yuanji. After pondering for a moment, he arched his hand and said, "but the quota of all officials should be determined by Wei Chen!"
Tang Yin just doesn''t want to break his promise in public. As for the specific details, he doesn''t care. He nodded and replied, "yes! Lord Zhang will take full control of this matter!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Zhang Zhe arched his hand and gave Tang Yin a deep salute. He just said the word "wise" in his mouth to make Tang Yin feel harsh.
The matter of helping the ministers settle their belongings came to an end under the adjustment of Shangguan Yuanji. After the people left one after another, Tang Yin took several wives and visited the palace under the guidance of Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen. It was also a way to get familiar with the environment of the palace.
The new palace was built according to the model of Fengguo palace, so it is not strange to Tang Yin and Wu Mei who have just moved in. After only a rough walk, they understand the overall structure of the palace.
After sorting out the residences of the ladies and arranging them properly, Tang Yin left the palace and went to the palace to see what was going on there.
Yin Zhun was still very satisfied with the new palace. It was bigger than the palace in Yancheng, and the decoration inside was more luxurious, which could better reflect the majesty and style of the royal family. Of course, if he had been to Tang Yin''s palace, I''m afraid he wouldn''t think so again.
Seeing Tang Yin coming, Yan Zhun greeted Tang Yin with a smile on his face, took Tang Yin''s hand and said, "I''m really sorry that Aiqing gave me the Mo palace again. I heard that Aiqing''s palace was just built, and the time was in a hurry. It must be very simple inside?"
Hearing this, Tang Yin couldn''t laugh or cry. Was Yin Zhun showing off to himself or herself? Is he so excited that he has forgotten his current identity? Tang Yin smiled indifferently and said lightly, "Wei Chen has never been very picky about his residence."
"Yes, yes, yes! When she was in Yancheng, Aiqing was like this." The assassin Yan Qing suddenly asked, "did you hear that the assassin was hurt?"
"It''s nothing to worry about, just an assassin, but thank you for your concern." Tang Yin said with a smile.
"No one really knows neither good nor bad. However, when my guard of honor entered the city, I didn''t see an assassin. The people in Zhenjiang are also very enthusiastic about my arrival!"
It''s true. It''s rare to have a chance to witness the demeanor of the emperor. Almost all the ordinary people who watched entered a semi crazy state. At the scene, there were a lot of people who knelt down and kowtowed and wept with joy, and the voice of shouting long live passed one wave after another.
The scene at that time made Yan Zhun very excited. Even now, his mood still hasn''t calmed down for a long time.
However, he just asked Tang Yin about his assassination, and then said how he was welcomed by the people. The implication was that in Zhenjiang, he was much more loved by the people than Tang Yin, the king of wind.
But he seems to have forgotten that being loved by the people does not mean that he controls the real power. The power of Zhenjiang and even the whole Fengguo is still firmly in Tang Yin''s hands.
Looking at Yan Zhun, who was proud and happy to compare himself, Tang Yin wanted to cut his head open and see what was thinking in his pig brain.
Is it a good thing to have such a phenomenon under the control of others? Aren''t you afraid of killing yourself at all? Maybe I have lived in the deep palace for too long, and even my thinking is different from that of normal people.
Tang Yin shook his head secretly, but he hoped that Yin Zhun could continue to be so simple, or stupid. For him, it was a good thing.
He bent his eyes and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is the son of heaven. All the people in the world are His Majesty''s people. Naturally, the people love your majesty more than anything else."
Yan Zhun laughed at his words, and even thought that his relationship with Tang Yin would be reversed in the future, and he would no longer be subject to him. After all, this is Zhenjiang, Modi, not Yancheng of the wind country.
Seeing that Yin Zhun is rarely so happy today, Tang Yin won''t spoil his fun. Let him entertain himself for a while! Soon, Tang Yin said goodbye to Yan Zhun, and then asked ah San and ah Si and the guards to drive his prepared carriage into the palace to Yan Rou''s residence.
The carriage contained not only daily necessities, but also luxury items such as gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin. He could ignore Yan Zhun, but he was reluctant to let Yan Rou suffer any injustice.
Yan Rou brought a lot of things from Yancheng. Now Tang Yin sent several carriages, and the unloaded big boxes quickly filled the Yonghe palace where she lived.
Yan Rou, who was wearing a white princess dress, was like a white butterfly, shuttling through the courtyard and looking at the objects in the box from time to time. She was coquettish and angry in her tone, but could not hide her smile in her eyes. She said to Tang Yin, "Yin, you have sent too many things. Where can you put these many things here!"
Seeing Yan Rou walking around happily, his small face was red and his forehead was a little sweaty, he went forward and held her, and said softly, "put it up if you can''t put it down, and take it out when you can use it."
"What a waste..."
"As long as you like it, it''s not a waste." Feeling that Yan Rou was going to look through other boxes, Tang Yin put her in her arms with a smile and didn''t let her leave. "Have a rest. I''m sweating so much. Be careful to catch a cold."
She could feel Tang Yin''s love for herself, and the smile on Yan Rou''s face was stronger. She asked curiously, "who used to live in Yonghe palace?"
"It should be Shao Fang''s mother!"
"Where is she now?" Yan Rou continued to ask.
"Well, I don''t know." Tang Yin didn''t lie. He can''t care about everything. As for where his side places the women''s family members in the Mo palace and Shaofang''s children, Qiu Zhen did it. He doesn''t know the specific situation.
"Yin, you didn''t kill her, did you?" Yan Rou turned back and looked at Tang Yin with dazzling eyes.
"At the beginning, I promised Shao Fang not to hurt his family. Naturally, they were all fine." Should it be all right?! Tang Yin said yes, but he was not very sure in his heart.
Qiu Zhen has always been cruel and ruthless. Whether he properly resettled Shaofang''s family members or directly killed the eternal empress, even Tang Yin can''t guarantee it.
"This is the best. I''ll be at ease when I live in the future." Yan Rou leaned against Tang Yin''s arms and sighed.
Tang Yin was stunned and said, "if rou''er doesn''t like it here, you can live in my palace." He suddenly remembered that many corpses had been found in King Mo''s palace before. He didn''t believe ghosts smiled, but he was a little worried about Yin rou.
