Manchu traitor, how can you let me be the emperor of the ages

Chapter 57 What Li Gan is good at

No normal person is willing to hand over their wallets, but the boss is the one who gives the money anyway.

Ever since Li Yuan took over the internal funds, he has never been short of the late emperor's food and clothing expenses.

The first emperor also gradually got used to this, so the two parties tacitly did not bring up the matter of internal money, and the emperor's small treasury was always in Li Yuan's hands.

Now that Li Gan has ascended the throne, Li Yuan has never mentioned the matter of returning the money.

"What excuse did Li Yuan use to take away my 5000 taels?" Li Gan gritted his teeth.

"Return to Your Majesty, the records of the internal funds say that it is to help the troubled clan." Wei Zhongxian returned in a low voice.

Li Qian felt a sense of powerlessness: "Yes, Tang Guogong is still in charge of the clan mansion..."

"5000 taels of silver...it's all my money..."

There is no place to use money now, but what if there is in the future?The internal money is under the control of Li Yuan, if you want to get stuck on Li Gan's neck, it's a piece of cake!

The fact that his small treasury is in the hands of others made Li Qian feel like a thorn in his throat.

His father asked for money, and Tang Guogong would give it to him, but if his nephew asked for money, would Tang Guogong still give it?
Li Gan felt that this matter was embarrassing.

At that time, when the internal funds run out of money, do you want to eat the food of Guanglu Temple?Li Qian felt that he might as well die.

'What excuse should I use to get my money back? '

If it is direct, it may not be successful, after all, Tang Guogong is still his uncle in name.

It is reasonable for parents to keep the lucky money for their children, right?
Li Gan frowned and walked a few steps, thinking for a moment: "Do I have to wait for an opportunity..."

For example, all the money in the internal funds was used up, and then I went to ask Tang Guogong for money.

If he refuses, he can just take this opportunity to ask for the money back.

If he agreed...wouldn't it be better?
Always want it!
Li Qian turned his head and looked at Wei Zhongxian: "Big Companion, you go to the inner bank and pay 1000 taels first."

He decided to test Li Yuan's meaning first.

Wei Zhongxian was taken aback: "Your Majesty, what reason should the servants use to withdraw the money?"

"Is there any reason?"

Li Gan waved his hand: "Just say that my current meal is too poor, I want to eat something good!"

Wei Zhongxian replied with a wry smile: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will try it today."

He lowered his head and said with some helplessness: "Your Majesty, the people in Tang Guogong's mansion are now managing the internal funds. Every expenditure must be asked clearly by them, and they will approve it after careful verification. Moreover, after paying the money, They will also send people to oversee the use of the money.”

"Actually, the chefs who cook for His Majesty, and the food supply, are supervised by people from Tang Guogong's mansion."

"So troublesome..."

Li Qian felt that the teeth were hurting, no wonder he ate so well and only spent so little money a day, so someone was watching inside.

"Let's forget it first." He waved his hand helplessly, this kind of casual excuse will definitely be exposed.

Moreover, if he really asked him to use 1000 taels of silver to improve the food and eat delicacies from mountains and seas, Li Gan still felt a little distressed.

After temporarily dispelling this idea, Li Gan took a few steps forward, came to the box that Wei Zhongxian had just brought in, and opened it with his own hands.

There is a white jade pot in the box.

The spout of the curved neck, the round body of the pot is carved with cloud patterns, it is white and shiny, and there is a crisp sound when it is tapped lightly.

Li Gan played with it for a while, and said with emotion: "He Shen is really a big family."

Wei Zhongxian replied from one side: "After returning to the mansion with my lord, I said that my majesty gave me wine today, but he left halfway due to illness, which disturbed your majesty's pleasure, so I specially offered this thing to make amends."

Li Gan nodded, He Shen is good, a loyal minister.

Just after returning home, I sent such a jade pot, and 5000 taels of silver...

and many more!

Li Gan was startled suddenly, why did He Shen give him money?Still in the red envelope?

It's okay to give this jade pot to the emperor, but it's too inappropriate to give silver directly, right?And it’s super superfluous!
This thing doesn't look like it was given to the emperor, but it looks like it was given to...

Li Gan turned his head and looked at Wei Zhongxian with a strange expression: "Big Companion, these red envelopes and bank notes should be given to you by the Heqing family, right?"

"Your Majesty's candle shines thousands of miles away, and you can clearly see every detail!"

Wei Zhongxian replied without hesitation: "But the servant belongs to His Majesty, so the servant didn't mention this just now."

The old eunuch is still very smart. He knows that no one sent money before, and now someone suddenly started sending money. The changes all came from His Majesty, not himself.

If there is no emperor, who would pay attention to him, an old eunuch?When the emperor didn't trust him, that's when he "died".

So Wei Zhongxian is very sober, knowing that the most important thing at the moment is to maintain His Majesty's trust in him, not anything else.

Li Qian was also a little surprised by Wei Zhongxian's reaction: "Big Companion? Do you really think so?"

"Return to Your Majesty, everything that this servant said is true."

Li Gan held the bank note, instead of being very happy, he sighed quietly.

Under Wei Zhongxian's puzzled gaze, Li Gan said sadly: "Big Companion, speaking of which, I'm not a good emperor either... You are the earliest old man who accompanied me. It stands to reason that I should reward you once after I ascended the throne."

"But I don't have any money in my hands, and I have nothing to reward you..."

Wei Zhongxian was startled, and hastily knelt down and leaned over: "Being able to serve His Majesty is a blessing that I have earned in several lifetimes. I dare not ask for anything else."

Li Gan held his arm and said to himself: "These days after I ascended the throne, if I didn't have a big companion to take care of the front and back and deal with the affairs of the palace, I would never have lived so carefree. In the palace, everyone They all have their own thoughts, only my companion is completely loyal to me..."

The old eunuch was so moved that if someone else said those words, he would just let it go as a fart.

But speaking from His Majesty's mouth, it is so different.

The old eunuch raised his head tearfully, it turned out that His Majesty knew all this, so he saw it all.

"Your Majesty, servant..."

Li Qian put the 5000 taels lightly into Wei Zhongxian's hands: "The current situation is difficult, and I can't promise anything to my companion. But if I can make a promise in the court in the future, I will definitely entrust my companion with a heavy responsibility."

The emperor's entrustment with important tasks is equal to prosperity and wealth.

So don't look at what Li Qian said so much, in fact, it can be summed up in two words: painting cakes.

Of course, the illusory pie will only be hated by people, but the pie he drew can be seen!

At least Wei Zhongxian could see it clearly!
His Majesty has just served three courts, and he can make so many ministers kneel down and shout long live, and he can also send officials like He Shen to send this to that!

It's all like this now, are the good days in the future still far away?

Wei Zhongxian knelt down again excitedly: "The servant only asks to be by His Majesty's side all the time, and dare not ask for anything else!"

"Get up, buddy."

Li Gan picked him up again, and put the 5000 taels bank note into his hand.

"This money belongs to His Majesty, the slaves dare not..."

"Since you say it's mine, then it's my reward!"

Li Gan said with a smile: "We can't put this money in our internal funds anymore, right? Then it's not ours! In the future, my big companion will manage the money for me!"

Look, look, this is no empty painting!

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Zhongxian was given an errand to manage money.

Although strictly speaking, Li Qian doesn't have much money yet, he only has these two things sent by He Shen.

But Wei Zhongxian is still a little excited, managing money represents absolute trust!What is more precious than His Majesty's trust? ?

"The servant will definitely live up to His Majesty's trust!"
