The Ministry of revenue had no money, and anyone who asked the Emperor for money would be scolded and reprimanded. From time to time, old accounts would be dug up where the money had gone.
If he couldn’t answer, he would lose his hat and even his head.
The Ministry of revenue was a lucrative job, but when it came to money, the Ministry of revenue had the most heads.
The crowd watched as he stepped forward.
Lord Xia was in danger.
It’s over, he’s dead for sure.
Even the Minister of revenue didn’t dare to show his face, so if you did, wouldn’t you be courting death?
Lord Xia stood in front of the hall, and the new emperor looked at him faintly, but his expression was strangely suppressing some anger. It even looked a little twisted and kind.
Your Majesty, the flood in Jiangnan has caused the people to lose their homes and live in poverty. I implore Your Majesty to start disaster relief measures to reduce the loss … Lord Xia read it out slowly.
A few courtiers covered their faces with their hands when they heard this.
This was how the Minister of revenue had asked for money yesterday, and in the end, his head had been smashed by the inkstone.
Lu huaijiang looked at Lord Xia silently and clenched his fists. The Ministry of revenue, this old demon.
You only know how to take advantage of my Treasury.
Before I ascended the throne, the Treasury of the eastern Palace was not enough for Lulu to eat and play. Now, I have inherited a large Foundation. The Treasury was even poorer than his.
He cut a penny into two petals.
Those old fogeys from the Ministry of revenue, they’re holding money and asking me for money.
Whoever opened their mouth would have their house confiscated and turned into the National Treasury. It would save these old farts from asking for money all day.
Lu huaijiang had already planned it out …
Then, he saw his little ancestor’s uncle step forward.
Lu huaijiang opened his eyes lazily. He muttered in his heart, ” what’s the possibility of Lulu crying to me after I ransack the Xia family? ”
After some thought, he understood.
The water would probably flood the eastern Palace.
Your Majesty, please allocate 100 … The new emperor’s face darkened before he could even say “million.” Lord Xia was a little apprehensive. He pondered over the silver in the lower household accounts. Your Majesty, please allocate 500000, the Ministry of revenue 200000, and the civil and military officials to donate. Together, we will make plans for the Jiangnan flood.
Lord Xia smiled again. the top ten donors can erect a monument for him. He will be praised and commended by the world.
“Your Majesty, you can also write horizontal plaques for them as a form of encouragement,”
Lu huaijiang waved his hand and agreed.
A million or 500000, even a fool would know which to choose.
The Minister of revenue’s face was filled with joy. Although it was also 200000, compared to the gap of a million, even if he sold himself, it would not be enough. The Ministry of revenue could afford two hundred thousand.
But this time, Lord Xia wanted the officials to donate at least 300000 Yuan. The officials ‘faces all turned black.
Why did he have to eat the melon?
Lord Xia calmly retreated. He did not care if the courtiers were happy with him or not. Both ways …
His ability was only up to this point. Without his father’s care, he had no chance of rising.
It was better to focus on hugging Lulu’s thigh. If he did, there might be other opportunities.
The ministers looked at Lord Xia in shock.
This thing was definitely possessed by an evil spirit.
Very quickly, Grand tutor Xie came forward to report on the Imperial examination.
Lu huaijiang paused for a moment, remembering that Jiang Huaian was also in the exam. If the other party had passed the exam earlier, he would have been able to move out of the Xia family, Lu Huai, and Jiang Yun.
When the court was dismissed, the ministers secretly rolled their eyes and glanced at him.
A chubby little paw emerged from the furry ball that His Highness was holding. Its little paws looked small and soft, and there were even little bumps on the back of its hand.
He was actually quite cute.
However, it was only a glance before he was carried out by the new emperor.
