The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 591 Creepy
The person who said this was Li Wei, Minister of Taichang Temple and University of Zhongji Temple. He was one of Xia Qing's more trusted party members, so he was also called by Xia Qing to discuss this matter.

There were two other people who came with him, one was Zuo Tongzheng You Shaofeng, Secretary of the General Administration, and the other was Ji Yanzhong, a household doctor. Among them, Li Wei and You Shaofeng were the most favored by Xia Qing.

Ji Yan is also one of Xia Qing's henchmen, but he didn't expect him to participate in such an important event this time, and he couldn't help but feel agitated.

Being able to get Xia Shoufu's attention, it seems that he is not far away from his success.

Xia Qing attaches so much importance to the issue of side pay, the reason why he called Ji Yan is because he is a doctor of the household department.This matter still needs the Ministry of Households to pay for it, so he was called to discuss it.

"My lord! The time given to you by the emperor is too short, and there is no delay in solving the issue of side pay. We have to think of countermeasures quickly, get through this difficult time first, and then find other things."

You Shaofeng also put forward his own idea, and then said a few words after Li Wei.

He squinted at Li Wei, feeling a little annoyed.Both he and Li Wei are one of the most trusted officials of Shoufu. If there is any uncertainty, they will be asked to negotiate together.

He maintained that he was closer to Shoufu than other officials in the Shoufu faction, and he always had a sense of superiority in his heart.

But since this Li Wei was taken under the wing of the chief assistant two years ago, he has often been ignorant of him.

Pian Shoufu, however, valued this person very much, and he would be involved in the discussion of some major events.

This person is very scheming, he is a tiger with a smile on his face, he is used to hiding the knife in his smile, and he puts eye drops on him in front of Lord Shoufu every now and then.

He suffered losses from this person twice, and now he dare not underestimate this person.

After hearing You Shaofeng's words, Xia Qing couldn't help but look even more gloomy.Doesn't he know that the most important thing now is to settle the border payment?
Let them come here, just want them to discuss and come up with a solution for him, who will listen to their nonsense patiently?

"Of course I know what to do now. Do you still need to tell me? I called you here because I want you to come up with suggestions. It has been more than half a day, but there is still no solution."

Xia Qing was angry and anxious, suddenly stood up from the chair, and started pacing back and forth in the room.

"I'll have to go to bed early at dawn. No matter what, I must come up with a countermeasure tonight."

Seeing that Shoufu's face was so gloomy that water dripped out, and even reprimanded them, they didn't dare to say more.

Seeing that they looked like quails, Xia Qing felt even more anxious. He flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, they were all useless waste.

"Ji Yan, as a doctor of the household department, this is originally an errand for your household department. Now this official is taking care of it for you. You have to find a way to get the household department to take out money to pay back the salary."

Seeing that no one spoke, Xia Qing simply started to roll the roll.On weekdays, if they want benefits, they all come to him one after another.

Now that he has a problem, these people shrink back one by one, how can this make him not get angry?
Hearing the sound, Ji Yan trembled all over. He was the least valued person in Xia Qing's faction. He didn't get as many benefits as those people, but whenever something happened, he was put in front of him.

He originally thought that the capital would reuse him, so he came to Xia's residence full of joy.

But now he finally realized, isn't it because he is an official of the household department?
He hurriedly stood up from the chair, with a bitter face, and replied respectfully: "My lord, I am just a doctor of the household department, but I can't control the bank of the household department! Lord Shangshu disagrees, and the subordinate is also powerless!"

Hubu Langzhong is only a fifth-rank official, and he doesn't have the ability to ask Master Shangshu to transfer money to the frontier.

You Shaofeng and Li Wei also felt sympathy for each other, they couldn't care less about sympathizing with Ji Yan, and their thoughts turned quickly, thinking that when they came to themselves later, they could come up with a good countermeasure.

At this moment, the staff member He Zhongkuan who was at the side said, "My lord! I have thought about it carefully, and the emperor has entrusted this matter to my lord. Maybe I really have other thoughts in it."

Hearing this, Xia Qing hurriedly said, "Mr. He, tell me what you think in detail."

When Ji Yan heard this, he couldn't help but look at He Zhongkuan gratefully, and at the same time he was relieved.

If you continue talking about it, your lord will definitely be furious, and He Zhongkuan has saved him from the fire.

"My lord, think about it! The emperor didn't mention asking the Ministry of Households to distribute money, but only asked you to find a way. And you can't increase taxes, and you can't touch those merchants. Isn't that letting you pay for it yourself?"

Xia Qing felt chilled when he heard this, could it be that the emperor has taken a fancy to his family wealth?

But when I thought about it, I thought it was impossible.Although he has received a lot of benefits from those officials on weekdays, how can his little money compare with the side salary?

That's a thousand miles away!His house is full of money and is only a few 10 taels at most. How can it compare with the millions of taels owed?

Zhang Xiansheng, a staff member at the side, was a little dissatisfied. How much money can an official be greedy for?This is an important place in Gyeonggi, not those places.

The place is as high as the sky and the emperor is far away. If you are greedy for the emperor, you may not know it.

But in the capital, those censors stare at you all day long, if you dare to accept bribes and mess up the discipline, they will dare to read your book.

Besides, it's not that Mr. Shoufu didn't visit him, it's just that the emperor missed the old feelings or was afraid of him, so he didn't investigate the matter thoroughly.

Just like that, my lord restrained himself a little later, and didn't dare to be too blatant.

The money of a family's family must not be able to fill the hole in the salary. It is too alarmist for this person to say this.

Your Excellency respects He Zhongkuan very much on weekdays, and He Zhongkuan has indeed solved many things for your Lord.

This person is very scheming and good at being a man, so the adults are always courteous to him.

Even I am very afraid of this person, but I can't help being dissatisfied in my heart. I'm the same staff, but the status and treatment are different, so it's hard to avoid making people feel angry.

"My lord, I don't think this is possible. The little money in your family is not enough."

Although Xia Qing also felt that it was unlikely, his staff member He Zhongkuan was by no means a random person.He interrupted Zhang Xiansheng's words and signaled He Zhongkuan to continue.

But suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, maybe the emperor really had ulterior motives.But the purpose is not on him, but in his clan.

And the clan has given him a lot of benefits in the past few years, maybe the emperor has long been eyeing the ill-gotten gains of his clan.

Some officials read his book at the court meeting before, saying that he allowed the tribe to amass money wantonly in the local area.At that time, the emperor stayed with him vaguely, and later there were memorials to attend him, but the emperor also stayed and did not publish.

He also thought that the emperor cared about the old love, and because he had a strong family before, he was secretly proud of it.

It turned out that the emperor was waiting for him here!He just felt creepy, the emperor's thoughts were hidden really deeply!
