Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 287
Shangguan Shangfu Bureau saw that the room was full of clothes and materials.Immediately he opened his mouth and said: "If you want to say that it is priceless, it is just some clothing materials. The palace has the best clothing materials in the world, but I don't know how these are called priceless."

Perhaps because Baoqin is a little girl, Shangguan Shangfu Bureau didn't take Baoqin seriously.

In terms of duties, she is a fifth-rank female official.

Even if Baoqin has a rank, it is still a maid. The princess's close maid usually has the official position of female history, and the highest in the Tang Dynasty is only the eighth rank.

"There are decency in the palace, and there are rules in the palace. This is a list of what is needed in the palace." Shang Gong of Shangyi Bureau also spoke, and took out a very thick booklet.

Baoqin is not very old, but he has a lot of experience.

She understood that the real purpose of these people coming here is to select and quantify.And they didn't intend to let Liu Mu be the master at all, but they reported the number and sent Liu Mu to the palace.

Thinking of this, Baoqin was not in a hurry to introduce what these are, but opened his own little book: "According to the records of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the palace spends [-] yuan a year, and my husband generously increases it for you." to one hundred thousand."

After saying this number, Baoqin picked up a short jacket: "The maids in the palace are divided into regular clothes and formal clothes. According to each person's spring, summer, autumn and winter, three sets of spring and autumn, two sets of winter clothes, and three sets of summer clothes are calculated, three thousand The maid’s regular clothes are worth [-] guan. Besides the dress, each person needs [-] guan, which is [-] guan.”

The seven Shanggongs were instantly speechless.

Baoqin put the short coat in his hand on the shelf: "Talk, what qualifications do you have to come to talk. Whatever we offer, you can use whatever you want. See off the guests."

"Bold!"

"Get out!" Baoqin immediately turned his face, and pulled out the short knife that had been unused for a long time from the back of his waist.

The faces of the seven officials changed drastically. They fought for power in the palace, but none of them had ever seen a knife.Withdrew from this sample library one after another.

What Baoqin said is not wrong, this place is indeed priceless, because there are all samples of clothing materials that have not been listed on the market, and these represent brand new industries one after another.

After the seven Shanggongs exited the house, they saw a man wearing servant clothes standing by the door. After seeing the seven people coming out, the servant said: "My lord has a message for the seven. I won't see a man in three days. If the ten thousand court ladies leave the palace, then all 190 members of the Shangguan Bureau and various female historians will leave the palace."

The seven Shanggongs left Jingyang Zhuangzi full of anger,
In the backyard, Baoqin said with fear, "Lang Jun, I caused you trouble."

"Trouble, is there any trouble?" If Dugu Lan didn't think that such a trivial matter was a trouble, at most she would go to the palace and explain it to the Emperor Tang.

But Liu Mu said: "No, you did a good job. We don't know how much we will lose if we let them come. Listen to my order and go to Dacang immediately, then to Yiguo Mansion Dacang, Sanyuan Dacang. Get 20 people from Su Dingfang, and do it like this."

Liu Mu sat cross-legged beside Baoqin, teaching each sentence.

Baoqin looked puzzled: "This, is it okay?"

"If there's anything wrong with it, I'll be responsible for anything. If any of them dares to make trouble, I'll go to the Ministry of Household Affairs and Menxia Province to formally file a letter, saying that they insist on [-] bolts of velvet cloth, and we'll see who kills who."

Baoqin nodded vigorously, took the warrant given by Liu Mu and ran out.

Dugu Lanruo looked at it and smiled: "You are protecting your weaknesses."

"It's not to protect the shortcomings. The expenses in the palace are a bottomless pit. It can be said that as long as there is no restraint, how much is not enough. Moreover, even if Wansui knows about such trivial matters, they will treat them as ignorant. The most they can do is go to Concubine Wan Gui to complain. Yes." Liu Mu analyzed the matter.

Dugu Lanruo said, "Do you want me to go into the palace to visit Concubine Wan Gui?"

"No, you just need to enter the palace on the [-]th day. On the day of heavy snowfall, the holy meeting will be rewarded by the imperial court in winter, and we will add a special one for the famous concubines in the harem. Shang Gongju is actually the housekeeper of the palace, and they take care of too much. "While speaking, Liu Mu picked up the list left by Shang Gong of Shangyi Bureau: "There are so many."

Dugu Lanruo said: "Maybe they are not what you think, but they don't understand the cost of new clothes?"

"Maybe, but don't bully my people." Liu Mu folded the list and put it in his arms.The list says [-] bolts of high-quality winter clothing.

This way of writing can also be understood as thick linen on the market in Chang'an.But on the willow wood, it is cashmere cloth, an extremely precious clothing material called snow velvet cloth on the market.

That night, Liu Mu went to Chang'an.

At night, Liu Mu lived in Wenyue Pavilion, but he didn't go to see the recent information, and sat in the corner of the hall to listen to the play.

At this time in the palace, Zuo Shanggong was already standing in Concubine Wan Gui's room, in the name of reporting some recent situation, she quietly waited for Concubine Wan Gui to finish her snacks, and then began to report.

As soon as Zuo Shanggong opened his mouth, Concubine Wan Gui said: "If you are going to mention the things in Jingyang Zhuangzi today, then report these daily things and come back in a few days. I am a little tired."

After Concubine Wan Gui finished speaking, Zuo Shanggong felt his back wet instantly.

She felt a little scary.

First of all, if Concubine Wan Gui could know about the Jingyang matter, it meant that one of the seven of them had reported it in advance, or they had been overheard during their discussion after they returned to the palace.

What was even more frightening was that Concubine Wan Gui didn't even give her a chance to speak, she didn't want to hear it at all.

"The minister and maidservant leave." Zuo Shanggong had no choice but to back down.

After a maid closed the door of Concubine Wan Gui's palace, the maid and the eunuch all retreated to the side room, and Peng Hai came out behind the screen, bowed and saluted but did not speak.

Concubine Wan Gui took the initiative to say: "Isn't the palace's annual expenses more than 7 yuan in the accounting books of the Ministry of Accounts?"

"That's not counting the tributes, the tributes from the state capitals, and the orders from the palace. You said that the Xifeng and Dionysus wines need [-] bottles each, isn't it a bit much?" Peng Hai didn't agree. He knew the detailed list, but his people still found out a few.

Concubine Wan Gui expressed her kindness. Obviously, there are [-] bottles in such a wine palace every year, which is indeed a lot.

Moreover, the old god Sun also said that it is not suitable for a saint to drink too much, and drinking two taels a day is considered too much.So the emperor of the Tang Dynasty used wine for a year, not counting as a banquet for ministers, but just drinking with the concubines. One hundred bottles may be a little less, but two hundred bottles is definitely too much.

Thinking of this, Concubine Wan Gui asked Peng Hai: "You want to change someone from the Shangguan Bureau."

"I don't dare, I just want to have a try, how much the palace can really spend in a year. To put it bluntly, there are probably only three to five hundred people in this palace who are truly loyal to the saint."

Concubine Wan Gui nodded: "Yes."

Concubine Wan Gui has been with Li Yuan for a long time, and she clearly knows that the Peng Hai family was trusted by Li Yuan back then, and the former Sui Palace had successively joined him ten years before Daye.
