The blessing of the Qing Dynasty is difficult to pass

Chapter 483 Asking for Money (Part [-])

Yinzhen snorted coldly, but said nothing.

"Kerkun, why don't you pour tea and apologize for the fourth brother?" Yinxiang deliberately made things difficult.

Hearing this, Kerkun hated in his heart, the elder brother still wanted to pay him a three-point respect, but these two young masters were showing the prince's score in front of him, but his words were indeed disrespectful just now, so at this time he could only endured.

Kerkun got up, poured a cup of tea for Yinzhen himself, and bowed to make amends.

Yinzhen took the tea bowl impatiently, and threw it directly on the coffee table. There was another "bang", and the tea spilled out, covering half of the coffee table, and then flowed to the ground, ticking.

"Kerkun, stop talking about these useless things, and pay back the money quickly. The middle and lower-level officials in Beijing may be really struggling, but as a first-rank official, you don't know how many people are fawning on you. Will your life be difficult? Simply It's a joke, the treasury is empty now, waiting to fill it up with the arrears, stop talking nonsense, and quickly make up for the owed silver, a mere 10 taels of silver, I don't believe you can't get it out." Yin Zhen scolded with a cold face.

Annoyance flashed in Ker Kun's eyes when Yinzhen didn't give himself face so much. Although the elder brother lost power, there was still the eighth elder brother. The relationship between him and the eighth elder brother was also good. The elder brother's imprisonment has completely lost his power. This fourth master, Ke Kun sneered in his heart, if the eighth elder brother wins the big position, he will definitely get back today's humiliation.

"Fourth Lord, as you saw just now, the annual expenditure of the servant's mansion is only 8000 taels, 10 taels, 10 taels is an unimaginably large amount for a slave. I really don't have that much money."

"You..." Yinzhen wanted to speak again, but Yinxiang stopped him, and Yinxiang signaled Yinzhen to listen to him first, seeing this, Yinzhen gave Ker Kun a hard look, and did not speak again.

Yinxiang had no choice but to shake his head with a smile. He, the fourth elder brother, has a straightforward temperament. He treats his enemies like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. He always goes straight.

Concealing the emotions in his heart, Yinxiang turned his head and spoke to Keer Kun, with a warm smile on his face, showing no sign of anger, "Ker Kun, it's only natural to pay off debts, isn't it?"

"How can the slave not understand this truth? The slave wants to pay it back, but the slave really has no money." Ke Kun's face was wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, and his face was full of sorrow.

Yinxiang smiled, and didn't answer Kerkun's words, and asked himself, "At the beginning, your family was in trouble, and Huang Ama allowed you to borrow money from the treasury. So, it is commendable and rare in ancient times, can you keep this kindness in your heart?"

"Of course, this servant never forgets the kindness of the emperor." Ke Kun was full of piousness, and praised Kangxi again and again, "The current sage, with benevolence in mind, and sympathetic to his subordinates, this kind of affection is enough to move the heavens and the earth. The Holy King is not an exaggeration."

Hearing this, Yinxiang smiled from the bottom of his heart, his smile was so bright that the sunlight outside the house was dazzling, "Just remember this kindness, as the saying goes, repay kindness with kindness, and revenge with revenge, now your benefactor Huang Ama's beard and hair are graying because of the empty treasury, and she has trouble sleeping and eating, what do you think you should do?"

"Besides, it is the responsibility of a courtier to share the worries of the emperor. As a first-rank official, you have been showered with the emperor's favor for many years and won the love of the emperor. Raise money everywhere to fill the treasury, to relieve Huang Ama's worries and problems."

"When Huang Ama conquered San Francisco, the military expenditure was insufficient, and the soldiers on the front line were about to run out of food and grass. The Empress Dowager, an old man with high righteousness, stood up in times of crisis and led the concubines in the harem to donate clothes and jewelry. Those are all their daily savings, and some even donated part of their dowry."

"Even concubines in the harem can do this, let alone you, Kerkun."

When Yinxiang said this, the warm smile on his face turned into sarcasm. He sighed and said, "You owe the emperor's favor, and now Huang Ama is in trouble. Instead of raising money to help Huang Ama tide over the difficulties, you still owe her money." Don't pay back the money, and blatantly oppose Huang Ama. Kerkun, Huang Ama's favor for you, have you stuffed it into the dog's belly?"

Yinxiang's loyalty to the emperor was overwhelmed, and Ke Kun couldn't dare to say, "Master Thirteen, I will always remember your kindness and never forget it. Listen to my explanation..."

"No need to explain." Yinxiang interrupted Kerkun's words, with a look of disappointment on his face, he finished the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, and continued to smash the fate of the country "Now the treasury is empty, but all affairs in the country need money, and the army of the Qing Dynasty needs money Go raise it, it is a barrier to defend the Qing Dynasty, if the army is not here, can the Qing Dynasty still exist?"

"In the past few years, natural and man-made disasters, large and small, have continued. Those affected people need Huang Ama to allocate funds to appease and treat them. The people are the foundation of the Qing Dynasty. The people are more important than the king. If the people feel resentment towards Daqing , the foundation of the Qing Dynasty for nearly a hundred years is also in danger."

"If you are familiar with history books, you know that those dynasties in history were overthrown one by one. It was because the people had a hard time and couldn't bear it, so they rebelled. You owe money to the treasury and don't pay it back. Huang Ama has no money to appease the people affected by the disaster. Did you know that your actions indirectly contributed to the rebellion of the people?"

"We are Manchus. We entered the customs and established the Qing Dynasty. The Han people were already dissatisfied. You fanned the flames and indirectly fueled their dissatisfaction. Lord Kerkun, I have to wonder, which side are you on? You deeply You have been favored by the emperor for many years, but now you help the people to rebel, you explain to the Lord, if you feel wronged, then let's go to Huang Ama and talk to him, he is a holy old man, and he will definitely clear you up."

"I dare not!" Ke Kun was stunned, he didn't expect Yinxiang to be so capable, he really underestimated the thirteenth master.

"Don't you dare? Why don't you dare? Just now you were asking the fourth brother, but now you don't dare. Tell me honestly, do you have any connection with the White Lotus Sect? Otherwise, why would you dare to change the way to shake the Qing Dynasty? The foundation?" Yinxiang asked with a cold face.

"Master Thirteen, the slave has been wronged!" Ke Kun fell to his knees with a plop, and he couldn't bear the big hats of collaborating with the enemy, anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty, and restoring the Han Dynasty.

Just now when Yinzhen said that he had accepted 10 taels of bribes, he dared to question him, but he didn’t dare to clamor for Yinxiang’s words. Before that, Yinxiang made so many preparations, sentence after sentence, layer after layer, he couldn’t argue. .

"Wronged? You are explaining to the Lord. Where did the Lord wrong you? You are deeply favored by the emperor but you don't want to solve Huang Ama's worries. Instead, you delay paying the money to make Huang Ama be in a dilemma, saying, what are you? Why do you care?!"
