Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 1516: Everything Looks Like Silver (193 More)
Nala snorted softly, and narrowed her eyes with a smile.

The old lady of the Empress Dowager has recently made her quite dissatisfied.This year is obviously the old lady's 60th birthday, and on the southern tour, the officials and merchants in the south of the Yangtze River are all trying their best to honor the old lady.

As long as the old lady is willing to nod, the gold and silver will be sent in at a free price.

Fortunately, the old lady issued a decree through the emperor, saying that she would not accept any congratulatory gifts, but was only allowed to prepare scripture altars and theaters along the way, invite monks to lecture on scriptures, set up a stage to sing operas, and share it with the people along the way.As for the rest of the antique satin and the like, there is no need to contribute.

This south of the Yangtze River was originally a place of wealth, but because of the old lady's gesture, she lost a lot of income!
She also understands that the old lady has been used to being a wealthy empress dowager since the emperor ascended the throne. The emperor is a filial son, and every year Fula contributes; even the princes, county kings, and clans also contribute on time... Not to mention the annual longevity.Although Jiangnan is the richest in the world, the old lady has never seen or gained anything, so the old lady really doesn't take Jiangnan's contribution seriously.

But, she cares!
It is true that she is the queen of the palace, but everything she has is bestowed by the emperor.Her own annual bill is only 1000 taels, and the family helps to make up for it.But after a year, how many concubines and concubines in this palace celebrate their birthdays, each of them will be rewarded; how many concubines and concubines are there in the Palace of Compassion Ning!Only one birthday for each person per year is not enough for her 1000 years in one year.

Not to mention those princes and princesses!

Fortunately, at this moment, only one eldest brother has a grandson, and the eldest brother himself is still dead; after a few years, these princes will all grow up, and they will marry wives and have children... As a aunt, she will be rewarded, and she will be rewarded again. Where can I find so much silver?

It has been more than a year since she was officially in the middle palace, and she has almost used up her 20 years of savings in the palace; it can be maintained until this year, thanks to the rewards from the empress dowager and the emperor during the canonization ceremony, as well as the clan ministers, internal and external wives Contributions... In the first month of the first month, she was going to settle the expenses for the year before she left, and she couldn't pay for it without thirty to fifty thousand silver.

Thirty to fifty thousand silver, compared with her annual standard of 1000 taels, hehe, what is a drop in the bucket?

It's fine in previous years, but this year there is still the 60th birthday of the Empress Dowager.The emperor wanted Daqing, how could she be poor?

But the empress dowager exempted the ministers from giving, so why couldn't the old lady avoid her daughter-in-law's offering?As a result, she was so stretched right now that everything looked like money!

This time in Hangzhou, it was very easy for Hangzhou Weaving to make a contribution, so it was privately found by the internal management around her, and passed on to her through eunuchs and Tana.She was overjoyed, thinking that she was the queen, and Hanzhou made a filial piety, and she couldn't afford it without twenty thousand silver.

If you have [-] silver, the Empress Dowager's longevity will be able to handle it; even if she returns to Beijing and Concubine Shu will give birth—and the next child Xisan, Xiaomanyue, and Full Moon, etc., it will be able to take care of it.

But how could it have been imagined, the day when Hangzhou Zhizao came to import the money was the day when the emperor decreed that the sticky pole worshiped Tang A to be executed on the spot!

A dignified son of a nobleman, a bodyguard next to the emperor, said he had his head chopped off, so Hangzhou Zhizao didn't care that he was a coat of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so he dared not do anything.Just because I gave such 500 taels, it's not even enough to deal with Concubine Shu when I go back!
