The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 659 Chaos (3)
Mu Qingqing immediately stepped forward to greet Leng Ping, her palm-sized face looked a little pale because of the intentional powder.

Leng Ping didn't say much, and motioned for Mu Wu to step forward.

Mu Wu placed a bag of silver in front of Mu Qingqing.

Mu Qingqing was startled, raised her face, her eyes were full of light, I felt pity for it.

Leng Ping looked at her. If it wasn't for Mo Zhengyuan, she wouldn't have received the wrong message. Leng Ping, a simple-minded person, would never have thought that the woman in front of me, whom I pitied so much, would have such deep thoughts!
Leng Ping said in a low voice: "This is 100 taels of silver, enough for you for a while, just use it as your travel expenses, leave Licheng!"

Mu Qingqing whispered: "Madam Hao, what do you mean?"

"These days you are inquiring about Hao Chenfeng, I know, if you are not a woman, if not for your poor background, I will not give you the 100 taels of silver, after all my money is also hard earned, besides our Hao Chenfeng Family, there is nothing I can do to you, you are just pestering me all the time! This is your only chance, if you accept it and leave by yourself, we are all happy, if you refuse to take it, and you are still wishful thinking, then I will not be polite to you! After Leng Ping finished speaking, she got up and walked out first.

Mu Qingqing bit her cherry lips, looked at Leng Ping's back, and clenched her hands fiercely.

"Miss..." Zhihua stepped forward, looking at her miss with distress.

There is nothing wrong with the young lady, if she only wants to marry a sage and doesn't want to make herself a little girl, what's wrong with her?But why does God treat her young lady like this?

Mu Wu, who was tall and big, was still waiting opposite. He wished that Mu Qingqing would not ask for the 100 taels of silver, which was quite a lot of money.

Mu Qingqing finally opened her hands and stepped forward to hold the silver in her hands.

Zhihua covered her mouth and began to cry.

Then Mu Wu turned and left.

"Miss, are we really going to leave Licheng?" Zhi Hua whispered, they managed to gain a firm footing, are they going to leave again?
"Zhihua, remember today's humiliation, in the future, I will definitely ask this woman to return it!" Mu Qingqing said in a deep voice.

Zhihua nodded.

Mu Wu went out and whispered to Leng Ping who was waiting in the carriage.

Leng Ping nodded and signaled Mu Wu to drive away.

Zhong Chun pouted, and said unwillingly: "Ma'am, if you give her back the money, our Second Young Master has nothing to do with her. She is the one who pesters Second Young Master. If you want this servant to say, Madam has a good heart, if I , Get out directly!"

"Break money to eliminate disasters, my mother has been worried about Brother Dan's marriage for so many years, and now I finally have a clue. If Mu Qingqing messes up, the gain is not worth the loss, so it's better to settle the matter with money!" Leng Ping said in a low voice.

In fact, Leng Ping also planned to test Mu Qingqing with money, but she didn't expect that Mu Qingqing really only recognized money.

Zhong Chun pursed her lips, and could only nod her head.

Not long after Leng Ping left, Mu Qingqing got into the carriage with Zhi Hua and left Licheng.

Soon after the first lunar month, spring began. Although the weather was cold, it was warm. At this time, the Celestial Dynasty was facing a greater crisis.

Since Situ Zhanchen formally rebelled years ago, the expenditure of the imperial court has increased. In just two months, the national treasury has become empty. The emperor immediately summoned the household department to check the accounts. In three years, millions of silver from the two countries were lost. The reason is that some people made huge profits by exchanging copper plates and copper utensils.

The emperor was furious, and immediately sent Li Yanzhen to investigate, and that night, the servant of the household department committed suicide at home.

The treasury was empty, the people were panicked, and the news of the empress' disappearance in Bieyuan caused the emperor to fall ill all of a sudden, and King Yu temporarily replaced the emperor to handle political affairs.

Liu Huan and several ministers suggested that King Yu increase taxes. Nowadays, whether it is a tight war or an empty treasury, a lot of food, grass, gold and silver are needed.

King Yu was a little hesitant. He grew up among the people, so he naturally knew that the government would increase taxes and the people would find it difficult to make ends meet, which would only make the current situation worse. He wanted the ministers to raise funds, but they were against him.

No minister is willing to donate the property collected over the years!Even Liu Huan, who had always supported King Yu, remained silent.

Sitting on the dragon chair, King Yu felt a chill in his heart as he looked at His Highness, who was full of benevolence and justice, and a dignified civil and military official.

King Yu looked at Ruan Ji. At this time, Ruan Ji was the person he trusted the most.

When King Yu looked over, Ruan Ji came out first, clasped his hands together and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to donate my family property to fill the treasury!"

As soon as Ruan Ji said this, all civil and military officials glared at Ruan Ji.

At this moment, Li Yanzhen also stood up, "I am also willing!"

King Yu's eyes flickered.

The civil and military officials discussed in low voices, hating Ruan Ji and Li Yanzhen in their hearts, but now that there are two people taking the lead, they had no choice but to express that they would donate some.

Liu Huan's face turned red with anger, he thought Ruan Ji was in a hurry to take over.Now that the emperor is seriously ill, King Yu is taking care of the government affairs on his behalf, and Ruan Ji is anxious to show himself in front of King Yu.

Ruan Ji sneered in his heart.

He doesn't care about money at all, he just wants to return to Licheng to reunite with his wife and son as soon as possible.

It's a pity that the emperor doesn't let him go!
When Li Yanzhen's letter arrived in Licheng, Hao Ren frowned slightly.

He didn't expect the emperor to find out that the treasury was empty so soon, and he thought it would take at least two years.

If it wasn't for Situ Zhanchen's rebellion, he could have obtained more money, but now he can only stop quickly and tell several copperware merchants how to make money.

The doorway in this is very deep and very attractive. Many bronze merchants from all over the country have begun to participate, which makes the investigation more difficult.

In the imperial study room at this moment, the fragrance of winter jasmine wafted in the air, but Yu Wang Tianchong didn't notice it at all.

Today he invited King Fu, Eight Kings, and Nine Kings into the palace to talk about filling the treasury, but he has been waiting for half an hour, and no one is there.

"Your Highness!" Xiao Anzi came forward with a flustered expression, "It's no good, King Fu led people out of the city gate and returned to Fuzhou!"

King Yu was stunned, and quickly got up, "Go and inform Master Ruan, let him lead someone to intercept, and King Fu must not be allowed to return to Fuzhou!"

Xiao Anzi hurried forward.

King Yu frowned, King Fu also wanted to reverse it!
At this moment, the people who went to invite the eight kings and nine kings also came back to report.

"Your Highness, the Eighth Prince drank too much wine last night and is still asleep!"

"Your Highness, the Nine Kings just married eighteen concubines yesterday, and they said they were tired and couldn't get up..."

When King Yu heard this, he slapped the dragon case hard.

The guard was too scared to say anything.

The Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince deliberately refused to come to see each other, and now that Prince Fu is going out of the city gate instead, the Heavenly Dynasty might not be able to keep it!
