After the divorce, I became the Lord of the Six Houses

Chapter 61 The Prince
When Su Liu arrived at the Xuanzheng Hall, Xiao Ting was there.

Xiao Ting said slowly: "Your Majesty, Su Jian, as the General of Zuo Xiaowei, has been dereliction of duty one after another in the past few days. He has not been seen for two or three days. Su Jian left his post without authorization. Please punish him!"

Xiao Yi said: "I will punish Su Jian for this matter. Emperor Uncle, there is another matter. After Xiliang surrendered, it became my Datang territory, but the annual tribute handed over was only 3 taels..."

Xiao Ting narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know something, this Xiliang is located in a barren and yellow sandy sky, it is a poor place, this 3 taels is already a lot of annual tribute."

Xiao Yi said slightly angrily, "Could it be that the Xiliang royal family's possessions are only 3 taels of silver?"

Xiao Ting was not afraid of Xiao Yi at all and said: "If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can go to Xiliang to investigate and see if this king has deceived your majesty?"

Xiao Yi suppressed the sullen anger in his heart. Naturally, it was impossible for him to go to Xiliang, but if he wanted to swallow this breath, he couldn't bear it either.

Xiao Yi said: "In the past three years, the emperor's uncle has made great contributions to taking down Xiliang, how can I not trust the emperor's uncle?
I have also thought about it, if there is no army to conquer Xiliang, I will not be able to sit safely on the temple now.

The emperor's uncle promised 500 taels of comfort back then, but I think 500 taels is still too little.

I should reward the world for my great marriage with the empress. I would like to take this opportunity to give each soldier who died 100 taels of silver. I also hope that the uncle will present the roster of soldiers who died. "

Xiao Ting sneered coldly in his heart, this puppet little emperor just took office and wanted to gain a good name?However, there are nearly 5 soldiers who died. How can the current treasury get 500 million taels of silver?
Seeing that the little emperor wanted to save face, Xiao Ting said: "I will ask someone to fetch the roster. Your majesty is benevolent, and the families of the soldiers will definitely thank you."

Xiao Yi smiled lightly, "Then I will trouble Uncle Huang."

After Xiao Ting left, Hu Wei repeatedly said: "Your Majesty, where did you get so much money? The five million taels of silver can't be changed out of thin air."

Xiao Yi said: "Xiao Ting's accounts are wrong, he said that each dead soldier was comforted with 500 taels of silver, but there are more than [-] soldiers who died on the list.

It needs to spend nearly 500 million taels of silver, but Xiao Ting took less than 1000 million from the treasury. I don't think Xiao Ting will use his own money to subsidize it. "

Su Liu asked: "Your Majesty, do you think Xiao Ting's subsidy is fake?"

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "500 taels of silver is not a small amount. If it is really a sacrifice, there will be 500 taels of silver. Why would it take three years for Xiliang to win?"

An ordinary family of six or seven people in Luoyang only needs to spend 20 taels of silver a year, and they can live very well.

If the people in the countryside outside Luoyang had farms, they would spend less than five taels of silver in a year.

500 taels is still a silver tael that is rarely seen in ordinary people's homes in a lifetime.

Xiao Yi didn't think that people's hearts could resist such a temptation. He could exchange his life for a smooth and worry-free life for his family. Presumably all the poor people in Datang would join the army.

This consolation money must be tricky!

When Su Jingyan went back to the palace to go to the Xuanzheng Hall, she happened to meet Xiao Ting who came out of the Xuanzheng Hall.

Xiao Ting's eyes looked at Su Jingyan's lower abdomen, which made Su Jingyan's scalp tingle and kept protecting her lower abdomen.

Xiao Ting approached Su Jing arrogantly and said: "It's too late for you to regret it now, why marry such a stupid little puppet emperor? How can your Su family let the puppet really take charge of the government?"

Su Jingyan raised her hand and slapped Xiao Ting fiercely, "Presumptuous!"

Xiao Ting didn't want Su Jingyan to be so bold as to slap himself, he moved his jaw and said, "How do you protect that child like this?"

Su Jingyan frowned and ignored Xiao Ting, walked around him and entered the Xuanzheng Hall.

Seeing Su Jingyan coming, Xiao Yi strode down to support Su Jingyan, and said, "Did you just go back to the palace? Why are your hands so red?"

Su Jingyan said angrily, "I beat a dog."

Xiao Yi rubbed Su Jingyan's hands and asked, "Xiao Ting?"

Su Jingyan nodded and said, "What did you just say to him, that he looks down on you so much?"

Xiao Yi said: "I asked him to give me the roster of soldiers who died, and I will give each of them a pension of 100 taels."

Su Jingyan was very surprised, and thought about it: "Why didn't you say it earlier, although I can support you, 500 million taels is not a small amount, and I can't get it out for a while, but if you give me a month's work, I will definitely I can make it all up."

Xiao Yi smiled and said: "No hurry, I don't need to use your money, you just keep it for yourself.

What happened to the third brother and the third sister-in-law?After all, the third brother is still working in Zuo Xiaowei, so he can't stop going, Xiao Ting has already set his sights on the third brother, and the third brother has indeed been dereliction of duty these few days! "

Su Jingyan sighed, "Third Brother's dereliction of duty, you can be dismissed or fined, you don't have to worry about me and the Su family, just do business.

This also shows how vicious Xiao Ting's mind is. Regardless of whether my mother is fine or not, the third brother will definitely not care about Zuo Xiaowei's duties when he learns the truth about the third sister-in-law. "

Su Jingyan recalled Xiao Ting's eyes staring at her belly just now, the eyes were quite creepy.

For such a cruel person, fortunately, he was not married three years ago.

Seeing the worry in Su Jingyan's eyes, Xiao Yi said, "Don't be afraid, I will take good care of you and our son."

"It's a daughter!" Su Jingyan said repeatedly.

"Now the eight nephews of the Su family are all boys, and Sui Rou's is also a boy. There are too few little girls around me. If there is a boy, will the child be able to marry a wife in the future?"

Su Liu said: "Auntie, you are too worried, your child will be the prince in the future, how can he not marry a daughter-in-law!"

Hu Wei even took La Suliu's hand when he heard that, and glanced at Xiao Yi, but Xiao Yi was not angry at all.

After leaving the Xuanzheng Palace, Hu Wei said to Su Liu: "How can you talk nonsense just now? Although Your Majesty grew up with us, Your Majesty is Your Majesty after all. Your Majesty now relies on the Su family, but you can't be so arrogant. Are you stepping down from the crown prince?"

It was only after Su Liu realized that he realized that what he said just now was too firm.

Although the crown prince is generally the eldest son, there are times when it is not certain, for example, Xiao Yi is not the eldest son.

It is not certain who the throne will be given to.

Hu Wei whispered to Su Liu again: "You, please take care of yourself. Don't think that your Su family will be stable if your aunt becomes the empress. Your Majesty is now relying on the Su family. What about in the future? Your Majesty But would you still be willing to be suppressed by your Su family?

Just now, the Empress Empress was able to collect 500 million taels of silver when she opened her mouth. How could His Majesty be unprepared for your Su family? "

Su Liu heard Hu Wei say this: "We grew up with His Majesty, and you miss His Majesty so much?"

Hu Wei sighed, "I would rather Your Majesty always have such a pure heart.

However, I have read all the history books recently, and without exception, when the emperor gains power, he will definitely not want to lose power.

Although you and I grew up with His Majesty, we should not be so close. We should know who is a king and what is a minister! "

Su Liu felt a little uncomfortable, if this was the case, the Su family would go back to the ancestral house in the south of the Yangtze River, but what about his aunt?

Hu Wei and Su Liu thought they were speaking in a low voice, but they were all heard by Su Jingyan and Xiao Yi who were behind them.

Su Jingyan looked up at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi said repeatedly: "This Hu Wei is probably not punished enough for copying books, so he dares to provoke the relationship between you and me like this.

Ah Yan, once the child in your womb is born, I will make him the crown prince! "
