I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 365 Don’t touch my little treasury

When Xingxuan heard this, his movements immediately changed. After a few fierce killing moves, he kicked Jingyuan on the chest, causing him to take several steps back and almost fall to the ground.

With the help of this kick, Xingxuan pulled Luo Qianhuai out of the main room, kicked the old servant who came to intercept him to the ground with one palm, and then jumped up to the roof.

It is almost the second watch now, and although the curfew has not yet reached, the palace residents living in Yishan Square have already closed their doors to rest, for fear of missing their early morning errands tomorrow, so the streets in the square are almost empty.

"Madam!" Caiwei grabbed a few steps behind and shouted on her back, suppressing her voice: "We are both biological father and daughter. We can discuss some things slowly. How can we run away from home if we don't agree? It's better to come down quickly. , if others saw it, they would think that my Jing family has no tutor!"

Luo Qianhuai silently turned around and looked at her, his eyes as cold as an ancient well, as if he could see all the calculations hidden in her heart.

Caiwei felt a sudden chill in her heart and turned to pull Jing Yuan who also rushed out: "Husband, please don't be angry. Yinyin also couldn't think about it for a moment when she heard the good news. The top priority is to persuade her to come back quickly, otherwise if she is so disobedient to her elders, If your behavior is known to outsiders, your reputation will be completely ruined. Not to mention the Jin family, no one in Xijing will want to marry you!"

The anxiety in Jing Yuan's heart heated up. He looked up at Luo Qianhuai and the two of them, and said in a deep voice: "If you come down now and admit your mistake, my father can forget the blame. If you leave today, don't blame your father."

Just when he was about to say harsh words, Caiwei quickly stood up on tiptoes and covered his mouth: "Husband, please don't get angry! Madam is also ignorant for a moment."

She turned to Luo Qianhuai again and winked hard: "Yin Yin, your uncle is planning for you, but you are too willful. No wonder he is so angry. How can father and daughter have an overnight feud? You just want to If you apologize and promise never to disobey me from now on, you, Aweng, will never be so heartless."

Luo Qianhuai watched her finish the performance quietly, his face remained calm: "Aweng, are you going to sever the father-daughter relationship with your son? Speaking of which, my two brothers and I have survived well without you for so many years. Yes. Since we are disgusted with each other, I will accept you. From now on, I will call myself Luo and have nothing to do with you anymore."

Jing Yuan was so angry that his breathing became heavy. His fingers pointing at Luo Qianhuai were trembling, and he didn't say anything for a while.

However, Caiwei saw that the situation was not good and rushed out again: "Do you think that by climbing on the high branch of Feng'an Marquis, you, Aweng, can be ignored? You must know that the country is based on filial piety. If word of your behavior spreads out, Marquis Feng'an will still sneer at you!"

Luo Qianhuai's patience has come to an end: "Master Jing and Madam, you can give it a try. If you are really angry, you can go to the government to sue me for disobedience and see if you can kill me."

She knew very well that her scumbag father would not do this. He hadn't been wary of himself before, and telling her the whole story about changing his name was equivalent to giving her a clue, so naturally he didn't have the guts to go to court with her.

As soon as she finished saying this, she stopped looking at their faces and followed Xingxuan running along the ridge of the roof, quickly disappearing into the vast night.

The old servant and Lu'er witnessed this scene and knew that the master and mistress were in extremely bad moods, so they both silently lowered their sense of presence. Aqin saw her sister resolutely leaving through the crack in the door. She felt depressed and was pulled back to the room by Lu'er.

After all, it was not her daughter. Although Caiwei was a little disappointed, she was not too concerned about it. What's more, she didn't believe at all that there was any young lady in the world who would actively resist the wealth and wealth that came to her door. There could be no other reason.

"Husband, please don't be upset." She advised in a gentle voice: "What the madam just said was just angry words. When you think about it, you will naturally know what is good for her."

Jing Yuan's chest was still burning, and his temples were swelling and painful. He could only feel the blood in his ears roaring like a tide, and he was speechless for a long time. Caiwei scooped up the tea soup and handed it to him: "It's just my husband. After all, the lady has not yet grown hair, so normally she wouldn't be so repelled by seeing each other. I'm afraid that the reason why she objects is because of something hidden. "

Just like a basin of cold water poured on his head, Jing Yuan suddenly raised his eyes and looked at her: "What do you want to say?"

"I'm just making random speculations. Given the opportunity to marry a heroic figure like Mr. Jin, logically speaking, no one should have the heart to refuse, and refuse so decisively that he would not hesitate to break up with his own husband. Could it be Da What other ties does the lady have over there in Changling City?"

She looked directly into Jing Yuan's eyes and said the last two words in a very low but clear voice.

The corners of Jing Yuan's lips were slightly raised, but there was no hint of smile in his eyes: "If she really dares to have an affair with someone without a matchmaker, don't blame me for not caring about the relationship between father and daughter."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of coldness flashing through them.

Weiyang Palace, Chengming Palace.

The young emperor threw down the memorial in his hand, his anger evident in his expression.

He had always behaved meekly and courteously in front of the auxiliary ministers, but this was the first time he showed his sharpness. It made people understand that this little emperor, who was only ten years old, also had the spirit of a teenager.

"Da Sima. I didn't hear you clearly just now. Can you say it again?" The young man's voice was still immature, but his tone was an unquestionable command.

Huo Xuan straightened his posture and performed an extremely upright salute. His back was bent deeply, almost parallel to the ground: "Your Majesty, Wuhuan and the Xiongnu sent troops to invade our country, Shuofang and Jizhou were in emergency at the same time. Now the treasury is It is empty, and I sincerely request your Majesty to donate your internal funds to finance the military."

Behind him, Prime Minister Xin He, Da Nong Ling Lou Zhiping and Shaofu Ling Fang Han all stood solemnly in the hall.

"Absurd!" Jiao Lingjian said on behalf of the young emperor:

"The country has its own system. The internal treasury belongs to His Majesty's private treasury and is used exclusively for the expenses of the palace. Since the late emperor ordered you to assist the government, he trusts that you will be able to take care of all the affairs of the government properly. Now there are enemy attacks outside. , the treasury is empty, it is the duty of the assistant government and the officials. Instead of thinking of serving the country with all your heart, you have focused on His Majesty's internal funds. Do you still dare to be worthy of the late emperor and worthy of the title of capable minister? ?”

These words spoke Yu Jin's heart. He sat at the top and looked at the people below him with a sullen face.

Huo Xuan's expression remained unchanged, and he knelt down neatly with everyone behind him, saying: "Your Majesty is disappointed by the incompetence of the ministers. However, from the end of last year to the present, in order to deal with the rebellion of King Jizhou, from deploying troops to quell the rebellion to appeasing him afterwards, Money is needed everywhere, and the government's treasury balance is therefore exhausted; and it is still early this summer to collect taxes, and it is really impossible to cope with the deployment of troops on both fronts at the same time without using the internal treasury."

As he spoke, he bowed and kowtowed: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. Although the internal funds belong to the private use of the palace, they also come from the offerings of the people. When the late emperor was still alive, he twice used his private treasury to support the state. He feasted on the sea and the river. The world's scenery follows. Since I have the duty of admonishing and advising the government according to the late emperor's order, I ask your majesty to give top priority to state affairs and allow ministers to use internal funds to calm the hearts of the people at home and drive away the ambitions of the foreigners to protect the country of Henan. Sheji shows His Majesty’s virtue.”
