Chapter 357
Chao Chao year after year, endless rotation.

Chang'an, which had been silent for a long time, became noisy and lively again.

People from various families frequently went out to buy, and children with horned whips gathered together to play.

All the officials of the household department today are extremely surprised.

The household department, which was originally cold, has taken on a new look.

Red lanterns are hung high, and new couplets are pasted on both sides of the front door.

This is completely full of prosperity, and those who don't know it think that their household department is going to hold a happy event!

"What's the situation? What did His Highness King Qin do?"

"It should be, Wang Shangshu and Liu Shilang should not have such great ability!"

"The words at the door are really interesting. If you guessed correctly, it should be written by Mr. Yan Shi Guyan, the servant of Zhongshu."

"I almost thought it wasn't the household department."

They gathered outside the door to make a noise, but they didn't rush into it. They were waiting, waiting for the protagonist to appear.

"Liu Shilang, you are here."

"Everyone is really early today, why don't you go in?"

Liu Yiran followed the crowd and cupped his hands, but when he got close, he was stunned.

"this is"

"Liu Shilang also saw it, it's not that we don't enter, but that we dare not enter first at this moment!"

Liu Yiran looked around, "Is Wang Shangshu here?"

"Not seen yet."

"Then let's wait together."

Standing in the corner, it was the first time in so many years that the household department had changed its appearance. Although they liked this festive feeling, they were afraid that something might go wrong.

After Wang Gui arrived, everyone relaxed.

"Wang Shangshu!"

"Wang Shangshu, you are finally here."

"Wang Shangshu, what is the situation?"

Wang Gui waved his hands again and again, "Let's go in first, why are you waiting outside the door?"

"How dare you, this is the handwriting of His Highness King Qin?"

Wang Gui smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's talk after we go in. Your Highness took great pains yesterday, so don't waste your kindness."

"So, I really need to trouble His Highness King Qin."

Entering, it is more shocking than outside the door, the floor is made of red carpet, and the window is pasted with red paper.

In the hall, there are melons and fruits, and there are frosting sugar left, and there are more than a dozen pots of beautiful winter flowers in the courtyard.

There is a blessing word on the door, so that everyone is a little moved when they see it.

"I don't know where His Royal Highness King Qin is?"

"Yes, Your Highness has a heart, and I need to thank you in person."

Wang Gui raised his hand, motioned for everyone to settle down, and explained: "At the time of the year, the household department has worked hard for a year, and His Highness wanted the household department to be more happy, so this is the preparation. I don't know if you are satisfied? "

How could the ministers dare to say that they were dissatisfied, they naturally nodded and echoed.

"In addition, His Highness also gave us a big gift."

"us?"

Hearing Wang Gui's shocking words again, all the ministers of the household department were curious, what could be more surprising than now?
Official A: "What else will His Highness give you? Pastries from Prince Qin's Mansion?"

Official B: "Is it His Highness's calligraphy, or... If you don't get drunk tonight, you won't go home?"

Official Ding: "In my opinion, it should be those rare things sent by Qin Wangzhuang, such as fish, shrimp, chickens and ducks."

Official A: "In this case, His Highness really has a heart."

Official C: "This should only be available in our household department?"

Official A, Official B, Official D, "."

One of them couldn't help asking questions, which made the atmosphere of the discussion more heated.

After a little inquiring, you can know that among the six departments of the Tang Dynasty, only their household department has a new image for the new year, and it is very lively.

"The servant of the household department, Liu Yiran!"

Hearing that the old boss suddenly summoned him, Liu Yiran hurried forward two steps, "The servant is here!"

Wang Gui took out an imperial decree from his sleeve, and called out: "Liu Yiran, Minister of the Household Department, has worked tirelessly and selflessly for government. With His Majesty's approval, I will reward you five thousand guan!"

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Liu Yiran was so shocked that he didn't know how to express it.

Wang Gui chuckled, "This is the great gift from His Highness King Qin, don't worry, everyone has it."

For a while, there was a lot of voices, everyone has it, what kind of concept is this?
Is it too exaggerated?Liu Shilang directly got [-] guan, which can buy half a house in Chang'an!
Liu Yiran couldn't help asking: "This matter is related to His Highness?"

Wang Gui signaled everyone to calm down again, and then informed them of the matter, "At the beginning of the month, Your Highness came to discuss with me. At that time, the Ministry of Finance had just established various rules. Your Highness said that with so many people in the Ministry of Finance, it is impossible to work hard for a year. , and finally get a little salary. So I asked the old man to enter the palace with the folded son, and ask the saint to decide!"

"Your Highness benevolent!"

"The old man hasn't finished talking yet. According to His Highness, this money is the year-end bonus of all the officials of our household department. It is a total of [-] guan. The ranking of official positions varies from high to low. If anyone dares to feel dissatisfied with this , the old man must make it ugly!"

"I can't, how could it be?"

"That's right, that's right, it's hard to come by, so how can we desire more!"

"It should be like this, what's wrong?"

Seeing that there was no objection from the crowd, Wang Gui said with a smile: "Everyone, please remember, this was approved by His Majesty. Your Highness is just standing up for us. What really counts is His Majesty's reward to the Ministry of Household Affairs!"

Everyone shouted "My emperor is holy!"

Smart people can naturally understand that this is Wang Shangshu warning others not to cause trouble for His Royal Highness King Qin!
"Okay! Then next, the head of Duzhi, Yan Luyao, three thousand guan!"

I thought five thousand guan for the servant was amazing enough, but I never thought that a master could have three thousand guan.

"Master Duzhi, Lu Xiaowen, three thousand guan!"

"Wow"

The exclamations continued, today is a carnival day exclusively for Tobe.

From the Shangshu of the Ministry of Households to the official writers and small officials, all are rewarded.

As many as thousands, as few as hundreds.

Wang Gui read it happily, and everyone was delighted to hear it.

The news spread, and even Du Yan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, came to investigate the "enemy situation".

The eyes are red, as if cannibalism.

He kept muttering, "If Your Highness is in the official department, shouldn't this money belong to my official department?"

As for the officials of the other six ministries, most of them also ran over.

There are quite a few people in the six ministers who entered the palace face saint alone, each of them was anxious and wanted the "year-end award".

However, Li Shimin sent everyone away with a single sentence, "The reform of the Ministry of Household Affairs should have been rewarded. Look at you and other ministries, asking me for money, how can you have the face?"

If you don't know how to adapt, you will end up dead in the end.

Some people also found out that the matter was caused by King Qin.

There was a lot of discussion in the court, and it was impossible to calm down.

But the household department is extremely comfortable.

After distributing the money, Wang Gui took the officials of the household department to book a restaurant and had a good meal.

In the words of King Qin, this is called "the gathering of household officials at the end of the year"!
As the instigator, His Royal Highness the King of Qin is still nestling in the Prince Qin's mansion, enjoying the leisure time where everything happens.

He wouldn't know, because once the Ministry of Household Affairs came out, the Sixth Ministry had completely recorded it for him.

Except for the Ministry of Household Affairs, the most serious thoughts in the hearts of the officials of the other six departments are to abduct His Highness King Qin to the other six departments.

Even if they don't get money, with the merits of the reform, they can make them famous forever.

At the beginning of the reform of the household department, everyone was watching for fun, but now they are greedy and extremely envious.
